ADMIRAL PoRTER says that he has found
In North Carolina telegram from Gen
Lee to one OF the rebel officers, saying
that il Fort Fisher and Fort CasWeu were
not held, he would have to evacuate Rich
mond. We do not know where he can
fad better place than the rebel capital
to continue his resistance. But the oceu.
patton OF Wilmington must vastly increase
the difficulties of his position at Rich
mond, not only because it will enable us
70 threaten him from new quarter, but
because it must interfsSe seriously with
the supplying of his army. Sherman,
by holding the Gulf road, leading from
Savannah cuts off large supply Of
beef which Florida was furnishing n
Lee. New the seizure of Wilminp,oo
must sever the main liue of road from
Richmond southwark. But il also appesrs
that the rebel government has been iupor,.
inS meat from England. The Richmond
D''Pa's', speaking of the vast Importance
OF the business of the blockade runnsrs
says that between Oct. Goth and the end Of
the year, the importation of meat into N.
port of Wilmington amounted to s sg8 ooo
pounds. Allowing 200 pouuds for bar
rel, that would be IS los barrels. or nearly
900 barrels week. The Importation Of.
such aqnsn'tty shows that the supply in
the South must be short. One of opr cor
respondents writes that the rebel pickets
Ia Lees army say that they have been eat.
ing meat sent frOu England. The SUNNY
FURNISHED by the whole country south of
Wilmington and by Euglsud being at once
cut of, the problem of finding meat for the
troops in Yirginia become very serious

condition is becoming more and more en-.

tance on the extrome left, when the en-
tire line moved forward, carrying the
works almost without opposition.
The enemy was found to nave iauen
back from this part of the line owing TO
the 9th corps cutting them on, they
having reached the S0uthside road
early IN the forenoon and were busy
tearing itup. This of course cut the
rebel army In two. The division thus
caught between the 9th and I'd corps at
once retreated across the Southside road
towards the Apps htOx, hoping 10 Do
able to ford it and mus escape capture,
but it appears they ran against Sheridan,
and putting on bold appearance made
q show to fight yT51 ;. = {.
News to this effect reaching headquar-
tiers, two divisions of the I'd corps were
at once sent tofank and if possible, cap
ture the entire command. Our losses
during the day cannot be given but It 10
believed 1000 will cover them Many
valuable officers are amongthe wounded
whose names, however, are not obtained
vet. Our captures will sum up about
1000 prisoners and 80 guns intending
those taken by Gen, Sheridan yesterday
The loss of the enemy in killed and
wounded is not estimated, but in front OF
the 9th corps they lie on the ground very
thick. They were mown down ~ the
hundred at each effort to regain their LOST
ground. Gen. Ransom is badly wounded
and prisoner in our hands. He was
found at house on the Boydton road,
from which it was dangerous to move
him. Gen. A. P. Hill is reported killed.
by prisoners.

~ - - - U9449sS&4. 9t4k4
The Clarksburg Telegraph Of last week
contains very timely and ssnsibie edi-
torial article ON the treatment due TO
that class Of citizens who have besn ca
gagged in the rebellion, but who have're-
newed their oath Of allegiance to- the
United States government. avsiled them
selves of the Presidents amnesty procla-
nation, and returned to their former
homes. Inopposition to the proscriptve
and revenseful spirit manifested by some
persons, the Telegraph suggests and argues
that these ''repentant rebels" should be
treated with true christian charity by
their neighbors and their past rebellion
forgiven and forgotten forever. The
greater part, if not all Of them, engaged
i'm the rebellion from honest and conscs-
entious motives; they have attested their
sincerity by shedding their blood upon
hundred battle fields; but now thas they
acknowledge their error and profess
desire to return to their former lleGi-
ance, no social ban should be put apon
them to remind them continually Of the
past and beget in their minds spirit OF
fierce hatred, whea ws all so much desire
harmony and peace. -.y u. 80"
The Editor of the Telegraph, Colonel
NoRrHCorr has been Q soldier in the
Federal army; served with distinguished
fidelity; was. for long time, en- inmate
of Libby Prison, and has right tespesk
concerning the treatment due 90 those
whom he formerly opposed with arms
His sentiments rs expressed in the edito'
rial article referred to, are honorable alike
10 his head and his heart, and are in
striking contrast with those expressed
by some editors who remained ct home
while Colonel NoRTHCoTr was In the
field. and who never did anything to
suppress the rebellion but assail it with
spiteful words and empty opithets-
There arc mon in this, as In every othor
community, who have grown rich upon
the profits of the war without sharing
any of the burdens or its dangers, who
are tenfold more bitter bigoted and
proscriptive in their continents TO-
ward the rebels than those who have met
them hand to hand in fight. To all such
persons we commend the example of
Colonel NoRTHcorr, soldier and gen
tleman.
