as follows, an account OF the last Of the raid |
ers
Thursday afternoon Col. Bradley 7. John.
son. with about forty of his Marylanders, as
sisted by q detachment of the 9th VA. caval. |
nv. which had joined him, came up with their, |
rear guard near Tunstan's Stason, when
skirmish ensued, resulting in the capture OF
seventy Of the raiders. This is probably the
last heavy pull that will be made upon them.
as It is understood that the remainder OF the
party had pushed on beyond New Kent Court
House.
Thus ends the great raid which WINS design
!. ed for the destruction Of Gen. Lees com,nu-
nications and the liberation of the Yankee
prisoners in Richmond, The injury to the
communications with the Array Of Northern
Virginia can he repaired in three days, and
instead of releasing the prisoners already in
our hands, they have added not less than $50
to their numbers.
THE YANKEE LOSSES IN KILLED AND WoUSDED:
It is somewhat difficult to ascertain the ok
act loss Of the raiders in killed and wounded.
t It is thought that ip.the fights on Hicks and
Green's farms they had seventeen killed, and
| it is known that they had rot less than twenty
wounded. In Hampton's night attack upon
them near Atlee' 3, he killed four or five and
wounded as many more. In the several en-.
garetnents which occurred they must have
| lost, at low estimates, twenty five In killed
and seventy wounded.
THE LOSS IN PRISONERS:
| Their loss ia prisoners will reach three
| hundred and fifty. Upto o'clock Thursday
evening one hundred and seventy had been
booked at the Libby, and these did not in
/ caude *ase servents captured by Col. Johnston
Ia the neighborhood Of TunstalPs.
/ THEIR Noss IN HORSES AND EoUIPMENTs.s@
u What their nett loss in horses will amount
to cannot, of course, be estimated, as the
1 number they stole in their line of march wilt
90 far to make UP the number captured from
them. They did not loss less then, five hum
/ dred in killed and captured. Besides the
i horses they lost Napoleon gnn, many sad
dies, carbines. sabres, pistol, blankets, &c
/ Altogether the expedition was rather an ex-
j pensiye one to Fitzpatrick Government, taxi
i ing into consideration the results accom-
i plished.
THE CENTRAL RAILROAD.
The injury sustained by this road from the
raiders is slight, and only such as to prevent
the running Of the trains for . few days. In
the neighborheod of the Chickahonainy they
i DESTROYED the trestle work over the Brook,
and some fifteen feet of what is known rs the
/ dry trestling on the other side Of the Chicka-
hominy. At Beaver Dam they tore up some
hundred yards or more Of track, and burnt
one or two unimportant railroad buildings,

ficted upon the road.

EMIAH SMITH By JEREMIAH SMITH Indianap
oils; II H. DoDD Co. Publishers, 1858
The object Of this work is TO combat the dog
ma that slavery is sinful, aud most successfully
and conclusively has the author met and over
thrown the fanatical ideas which prevail upon
that question With great industry and ability
the proposition is demonstrated that slavery -
not sinful, and in cansassing the question, this
work presents the facts and arguments. biblical
and other, which are entertained and used by
those who assert or differ from the conclusions OF
the author The belief that slavery is sinful-is
a crime against God and society-precipitated
upon the country the terrible civil war. with all
its woes which has been wagei for near three
years and threatens the overthrow OF American
liberty Ii has given the control of the Govern
ment into the hands of the abolition party, with
the power to inhct upon The nation the calamtles
which it has suffered and is sill suffering When
the public mind becomes convinced that the ideas
put forth by the Abolitionists have no basis in
sound morals or philosophy then il may be
hoped they will sink into the iasignificance
from which they emerged and become
again pOwerless TO do evil The book OF Judge
Smith possesses great value for the information
and facts it contains upon the all absorbing sub
ject OF slavery, and for that reason commends
itself to all who desire to be thoroughly advised

rhe pre.,dents Message Abroad.

A synopsis OF Lincoln's message and proclams-
sstion. received per Arabia via Halifax, attract
ell general comment. The London Times looks
upon the message a. warlike, and SAYS the effect
OF the whole document, amnesty included, re
sembes the last battle The offer of peace is on
terms that cannot be accepted. The whole
question still depends ON TIE fortunes Of war 1t
may be gratifying TO the Morn to be formally as
sured that the government IL strong and success

that Dir. Lincoln anticipates pacific result; nor
does the Secretary Of the Treasury. who looks
forward still 10 two years war expenditures.
Commercial circies IN New York seem to share
his msgivings. the premium on gold having risen
under the message.
The Morning Post thinks Lincoln must be
Joking" and says he should have remembered
that a Confederate army was encamped within a
hundred miles Of Washington before he ventured
TO dictate such terms OF amnesty
The Morning Herald ridicuIes the proclamation
and denounces the vindictve spirit of the proifer
ed amnesty which. il says, offers nothing which
could be withheld if the last Southern town haf
been taken and the last Southern regiment cut u
pieces. The real object is to establish pseudo
State government wherever secure foothold car

Lincoln, rejoices at his determination to put dowI
