Increased Rebel Severity.

mold infamous band OF thieves, near Greene
vile, the rebels Of the upper counties have
increased in their ricor, and in their plum
dering of loyal families. They are sending
loyal families into our lines and refusing to
let them bring with them any Of their plum
der whatever. We must retaliatc, and do
it with interest We have open and noto-
rous rebels here, from the upper counties,
walking our streets, who have fled to avoid
being conscripted. They will take any
oath required of them rather than 90 back
and run the chances Of being forced into the
army, to fight in war they aided in get
ting up, and contributed to bring on by
their conversation, influence and means

THE SITUATION.

We have felt ii our duty not to unduly exag-
gerate the successes achieved by GenI Grant,
knowing that he and his brave army have yet
much hard work before them, ere the desper-
ate enemy shall be fully crippled.
And again we counsel patience to such OF
our readers as have fully expected by this time
to see Grant marching triumphantly into Rich.
mond.
Admitting that the enemy has fought in these
battles with bravery, desperation and peril
nacity unequalled on their part In the history Of
the war,i is true also that the Army Of the Po-
tomac, under Grant, has sustained itself under
the shock OF these continued attacks Of the enc.
my, under circumstances most unfavorable
with similar unequalled courage and peril
nacity on its part.
Grant heretofore has conquered by the very
force Of perunacity that finally exhausted
the enemy and he now in exchanging these
terrible blows with Lee shows the same i'm.
perturbable purpose to win. His prize Is
Richmond, and his indomitabls pluck will
reach II.

HATTRRAs, N. c., May THE schooner
Eliza Sheldon, bound for New York, has Just
arrived here from Newbern, and reports that
the enemy made demonstration on Newbern
yesterday, cutting of the railroad communica-
ton between that place and Beaufort, and
making his appearance on the sonth side efthe
Neuse river, two miles below the city, with q
cavalry force, accompanied by battery Of
four guns, which commanded the water ap.
proaches to Newbern for brief period.
The gunboats Commodore Barney and Lou
isiana suddenly made their appearance at the
point threatened, and forced the enemy pack
from the river. Nothing was allowed to pass
over the railroad from Newbern to Beaufort
yesterday, as this demonstration was expected;
therefore the enemy failed to secure loaded
train Of cars. Capt White thinks this move.
ment Of the enemy is only cavalry dash, and
not intended as general attack on Newborn.

The Battle Yesterday.
Df the fight yesterday we had received
nothing definite up to IL O'Clock last night 1t
was renewed a. daybreak yesterday morning,
aad y reported to have ragged with great fury
during the entire day. At 10 O'Clock last night
no Official information 10 regard to the res ult
OF the engagement had been received at the
War Department, but we have every reason to
believe that General Lee has achieved another
signa! victory over the enemy.
Rumors.
The city was filled with rumors of eyery de-
seraption yesterday. One which seemed to
gain credence was that Gen. Lee yesterday
succeeded in getting in Grants rear and there
captured courier ha wing on his person a dis
patch from Grant to Burnside, ordering him to
s'hurry mp. or he co. would be compelled to
1ali back from his position" ;" that seeing no
other chance OF escape he determined to cut his
way through the Stonewau Brigade, which,
AFTER desperate assault, he finally succeeded
In doing. It was also stated that while re.
pehing this assault, Gen. Walker, OF the Stone
Tau Brigade, and Gen. George H. Stewart, of
Maryland, were killed"
The Whig Of the 9TH says:
In some respects Richmond is in more
danger than when Mcclellan. at the head of
Dae hundred thousand men, was encannped
within i've miles Of the corporation limits
Dur readers are we'll aware Of the weak point
In our defence"
The panic in Richmond on Saturday is shown
by the announcement In the Sentinel that "the
Yankee officers at the Libby, one thousand in
number, are to be sent to Danville immedi-
ately."
The Sentinel Of the 7th says that the different
churches OF Richmond were kept open during
C~iA

cess Of the Confederate arms in the battles
taking place.
