NEwBERs, ". c., March Is.
The recent raid on Richmond caused
the rebel Gen. Pickett to send several Of
his regiments from this State 10 Virginia,
just as he was ready to commence opera
lions in this direction. The regiments
are returning, however, evidently with
view Of carrying out their original in.
tention.
Gov. Vance, in one of his recent speech
es stated that Gen. Lee depends upon
North Cerolina for the support of his
army. .-s"
He dwells upon the Importance of
keeping the Railroad in this State in
good condition on the ground that Lee
could not remain in Virginia forty-eight
hours after they should fail to perform
their mission. 4e
The Wilmington On, CD Journal, in
speaking of the success of the blockade
runners in getting into that port, says
that the statistics for the past year show
that on the average, only one out of
twenty have been captured. In rough
weather the blockaders are obliged to go
to sea- which, with the exception of
dark nights, is the most suspicious time
for our sklllful pilots, who, with the
aid of our perfect system Of signal lights,
seldom miss their mark.
The report of Gov. Vance showing the
amount Of rebel supplies received
through this blockaded port, discloses
most startling state of things. Every
thing the enemy could ask for is receiv-
ed through this channel in great quanti-
ties. An experienced naval officer has
remarked, that owing to the peculiar
situation Of the coast, its numerous
channels embracing an area of 80 miles,
the entire navy of the United States
could not secure the blockade of Will

REBEL RAID THREATENED.
NEW YORK, March 10.

fa9 NEW York, March 10.
World Washington correspondence:
Mr.. Clement G.. Barlay, of Ishik, ar
rived here to-day bearing rumor that
the rebels intend another raid in Mary
land. His statements are entitled to
some credence from the fact that he
made the earliest announcement of Lees
intended invasion of Maryland last
June. Some of the facts in partial cor
rOboration Of this report are known
here. 1t is believed that the enemy is
burning to avenge the foray of Gen.
Fitzpatrick, and that while Gen. Grant
is preparing for the capture of Rich
mond, Lee will execute one OF his bold
movements, abandon his communica-
tions with the rebel capital, and make
dash for Washington or the rear of the
army of the Potomac. Two of our SOL
diers were captured yesterday near
Munson's Hill, showing that the rebel
scouts are within our lines, and active
preparations for the defense of the forts
around Washington indicate that the
military authorities are apprehensive Of
foray at least, if not for a movement
of the main body of Lees army towards
the national capital.

There is considerable stir and activity
in military matters in this department
at present. Gen. Banks is on the eve Of
departure for Western Louisiana. His
objective point is probably Alexandria.
A feet of Admiral Porter's gunboats
has already started for that place.
1t is expected that rather formidable
works Of defence will be encountered by
the iron clads, one of which is the newly
launched Ozark between the mouth
of Red River and Alexandria.
As you have been previously advised
Gen. Lees cavalry left this city about a
week ago their destination is supposed
to be to the westward
jacksonville, u small town on Lake
Pontchartrain, opposite New Orleans,

our forces under Gen Grover on the 18th
of January and extensive Notifications
thrown up on the land side These works
were left intact but add nothing to the
strength of the place to the rebels, as it
is easily approached by water. The OBJ
ject sought by occupying this place was
to open communication with Baton
Rouge. Gen Growers whole force has
been ordered to concentrate at the lat
ter place.
The Gath Massachusetts regiment has
re-enlisted II will start for home about
the Goth inst, on thirty days fur

ed, by the same steamer Many OF our
Citizens have started scheme to give
Mr.. Gilmore a testimonial. The sub

is every reason to believe the affair will
be creditable as well as acceptable. 1t
is believed that some sort of an under
standing has been entered into between
Gems. Banks and Steele, by which West
ern Louisiana and Southern Arkansas
are to be cleaned of rebel troops. /
An order has just been issued by Gen.
Banks to hold an election for delegates
