Capture of Plymouth, N. G..

On Sunday, 18th inst, the Rebels assault.
ed our works at Plymouth, aud were twice
repulsed.
On Monday morning, at ono o'clock, the
gunboat Boomsbell ran up Roanoke river to
look out for the iron,c clad ram which was
reported to be coming down. Soon after
passing our works she WIS fired into by a
Rebel battery and sunk. About 3 O. clock
the Rebel ram came down the river, run by
the batteries, and ran into the gunboat
Southiield and sunk her.
The gunboat Miami, very strong vessel
of the third class, lay close to the ram, and
her commander, Lieut.. Flusser, one of the
most gallant officers in the Navy, mmc
diately cleared his decks for action and fired
n nine-inch shell into the iron clad ram, but
the shot rebounded, exploded, and killed
Commander Flusser instantly. The Miami
was Immediately run down tho river out Of
danger.
Advices from Ncwbern, N. c., dated
22nd, says:
Plymouth was captured by the enemy, at
o'clock on Wednesday morning. General
Vessels and his brave force of only 1,5OO
men went into Fort Williams and held the
Rebels at bay until midnight of Tuesday,
driving them back with severe loss in every
assault, but was finally obliged to surrender
to superior numbers.
Two full companies of the I'd North Caro-,
lima Union Volunteers (whites) were among
the captured, most of whom, it is stated,
we're barbnrously led out aud shot by the
enemy after surrenderipg! All the negroes
who we're found in uniform we're also shot.

The reported advance of the enemy
toward Warren.on was caused by the falling
back Of General Gregg's Divisi on to Three
Mile Station for military purposes. There
IS no foundation for the current rumor that
Longstreets force is in Thoroughfare Gan.

gun equally as effective. Shells are now
thrown into the city, and reach points which
have hitherto been considered out of range.
The latest intelligence from the front
left everything quiet there. A heavy recon
noissance into the Valley developed the fact
that no considerable body Of Rebels are this
side the Rapidan. The belief was general
that Lee would not venture an offensive
movement. A report prevailed at the front
that Lee was removing his heavy artillery

Our school Com nm 1 ssi toner's.

1t is highly desirable in these troublous
times that no man whose loyalty is at ell
doubtful should hold any public position
and we therefore urge the loyal voters of the
county to see to it that they vote for no man
next Wednesday for School Commissioner
who is not thorough going, unconditional
Cnionist.
Heretofore too little interest has been
taken i'll the election for School Commits
sioners; but we trust that on Wednesday the
qualifications and loyalty of the candidates
will be thoroughly examined, and that no
Union man will touch anything not sound
III every respect. The hackncyed argument
that politics ought mt to be mixed up with
education should be utterly discarded in this
election: and personal considerations should
weigh as nothing with meh who stand up for
the Old Flag and the Government. Is it of
no consequence that the educational inter
ests Of the country are in the hands of rebels:
Is 1t Of no consequence that the instructors
of our children should despise the teachings
of the early fathers and l1uta the doctrines of
jeff. Davis and his fellow traitors? Is it of
no consequence that the rising generation
should be taught to believe slavery divine
institution, and the chief corner stone of a
republican government?
Have Slavery and Rebellion not yet cost
us enough to make US wish to have our
children taught to hate them with an indy
ing hate? Surely we must be slow to learn
if we have not yet arrived at the period in
Our history when we will utterly discoun.
tenance every public man with the fantest
odor Of treason about even his garments.
We know it will be urged that it is better
to re-elect some of the members Of the old
Board, even though they happen to be luke
warm or indifferent on the great national
issue. But we deny the force of the argu-
mcnt. Such men are ever dangerous but
particularly are they so after having had
experience in Il position. And if there is a
single member Of the present Board of
School Commissioners who is not strongly
pronounced Unionist let no loyal man vote
for him on next Wednesday. Let US select
good men and true in every District, and
elect them by sweeping majority, so that
our schools may be in the hands of men and
women to whom we can send our children
without fear Of their becoming tainted will,

The Battle Near Grand EcOre

THE FIRST DAY OF THE BATTLE.
The first battle took place on the 18th. in
which the Orion cavalry, after skirmishing
with the enemy and driving them for four
teen miles. until they got t'to miles beyond
Pleasant Hill, came upon twenty-five hun

THE SECOND DAYS BArTLE.-On the sth,
Col Grandrum's brigade Of infantry, with
the cavalry, pressed forward, and finally
met the Rebels in strong force under Kirby
Smith, Dick Taylor, Mouton, Greene and
Price, with from eighteen to twenty two
thousand men. There was brisk sklrmish,
ing, and finally the Rebels came an in force
Gems. Banks and Ransom being upon the
field. Franklin was sent for but before
he came up the Rebel successes had been
great. They made desperate charges in
mass, and were desperately resisted. The
losses on both sides were frightfnl. Finally,
after Franklin had come up, the Federal
force was driven back three and half
miles. but the enemy were checked with
fearful slaughter by two brigadcs under
Gen. Emory. Night put an end to the con.
test. Inc reucralS were under Banks,
Ransom, Stone and Lee. Many guns were
lost. On the Rebel side it is known that
General Mouton was killed.
TAE THIRD DAYS BATTLE A UNION VICTORY.
By falling back General Banks had effectd
a junction with General A. j. Smith, and
arrangements were made to receive the
enemy with effect. General Emery had
charge of the first line of bate, with Gen
erals Mcmillan, Dwight, and others. Be.
hind Emory, posted in hollow, was Gen.
cral Smiths forces. Skirmishing was kept
up until about five o'clock in the afternoon
when the Rebels came up in their old style
in masses, in three lines of battle. Our
batteriet opened upon them with terrible
effect. The Nineteenth Army Corps was
gradually forced back. The first line of
the Rebels had been entirely broken up by
Emory's resistance, but the remaining two
pressed on.
/. THE FINAL CHARGE.
Now came the grand coup de main. The
Nineteenth, on arriving at the top of the
hill SUDDENLY fled over the hill and passed
through the lines of General Smith. We
must here mention that the Rebels were
now in but two lines ofbattle, the first having
ben snnihilated by Geuerol Emory, what
