We canaot sea what aonneotion this matter

the aforesaid correspondent, that Col Gartreli

Col Gartrell's favor to several papers in Geor

desk a communication from hie pen on this sub

to publish because we did uot care to be bring

Now we would like to know if that correspon

was nut then understood that Governor Brown
would be a candidate, aa it is now. If that was
the intention nothing could be more unfounded

Was done with a /mryote—on object in view,
whiob we deeply deplore to find in any journal
occupying the position it does. Federal ad
ministrations, and metropolitan organs and
journals taking an undue- interest in Hlate

disruption of the Union We had hoped never
to see the same thing ioaugv rated in our be

73d Pennsylvania crossed over, but fell book
after a little skirmishing The advance of
Hooker’s army has crossed the Rapidan.—
Gen. Lee’s forces are, therefore, outflanked to
a treat extent, and must' either give battle or
fall back to Richmond.
Again:
THE ADVANCE (IF THE ARMV OF TBS FOTOMA
(TREAT STRUGGLE CLOSE AT HAND.
The herald has the following editorial:
The reports which we publish to day ol the
movements of Gen Hooker’s aimy indicate the
near approach of the most important and, per-
hapa, the decisive straggle uf the wsr.
The details of the crossing of the Rappahan
nock hy the army indicate Gen. Hooker’s plan
ol operations. He is moving on an interior line
above or west of Fredericksburg, to turn that
strong position or to draw the enemy' out into
the open field. The detachments whieh were
sent down seven miles below Fredericksburg to
lay a number ol pontoons as il for the crossing ot
the whole army ihere, were evidently employed
to divert the attention of the enemy from the
main design of crossing above, and tbia stratev
gem, nodouot, contributedjargcly to the passage
ot the river at tbe several crossings above, al
most without a show of resistan.e.
The main body of the army waa thus rapidly
marching southward, several of the advance
corps having crossed the Rapidan, and the al
ternative was thus presented to Gen Leeof com
ing out of hie defenses for battle, or for a rapid
retreat to ss on to-hi* - reeds to Richmond. He
cou'd not remain behind bis intrenebments with
his enemy rapidly pushiifg along hie flank to get
heiweon him and Richmond, his base of sup
plies. lie mnsi come out and fight or retreat,
and without loss of time, or the powerful ad-v
vanced cavalry force of Geu. Stoneman will an
ticipate him and cut off hie railway communi
cation. We ehall not be surprised, therefore, it
our next intelligence from the Army of the Po
tomac is that of a desperate battle, or of the
hasty reireat ol ihe rebel army to sonmnew po
sition.
But, as tbe enemy appear to have bad at
none of the crossings of the Rappahannook
any protecting foroe beyond u line of piekets
and a squad or two of rifleineu, is it uot pus
sibls that Lee, anticipating the movement of
Gen. Hooker, may have played upon him the
old retiff game of Manassas and Corinth.
* * * * * *
At all events, this advanoe of Gen Hooker
is now 'he all absorbing qaestion of the day.
The hopes and the fears of the country are
now oenlered upon him. He ia aware of ihe
tremendous responsibilities of his position —
His success will be to him an enduring orowa
of glory; but should be fail he is lost beyond
redemption He enters upon the momentous
tack before him with everything supplied him
ssstaHal to Soaoeas, by the government and
the people, except, those essential qualities, of
unfailing skill, promptitude in action and vig
ilant discretion, which he is expected himself
to snpp y, and whioh we trust he will supply,
as the leader of tbe magnificent army whioh
he commands. We await the next intelligence
of his advanoe, there ore, with oonfldenoe that
it will give ns the best assurance of a victor!

we kuow that tbe authorities had actually seized
one gunboat at Liverpool, said to be intended
for this Confederacy, and had instituted s close
eurv.eillance over the vessels in preparation at all
the dockyards.
A hverpool letter in the London daily Newt
gives the following particulars of the seizure:
It had been weU known for some weeks past
j that one gnnboat. if not more, wes fitting out
the ( in some of the minor docks ia Liverpool, and
those employed about them made no seoret of
the destination for which thqy were intended.
On the faots coming to the knowledge of Mr.
Dudley, the United States Consul at Liverpool,
be at oboe communicated with the American
Minister in London, and the result wae that
inquiries were instituted into the whole of (he
proceedings bearing upon the building of the
vessel seized.—'CheBe inquiries appear to have
been to far successful, that the British Gov-
ernmtht sent down orders te seize the vessel,
and at aa early hour yesterday morning (April
6.) Mr. K. Morgan, one of the Customs Sur
veyors, Went on boerd the Alexandria—that
being like “290,” the first ohristening of the
gunboat) aa, no donbt, had she got ole ax off,
she woufd have undergone a rechristening—
and took possession of her.
The Alexandria is a wooden sorew steamer
•>f about 120 tons, and a very fine model. Bbe
waa built by Messrs. Miller A Co, of the
Buutb Kud, for Messrs. Frazer, Trenholtn &
Co., of Liverpool, the “depositaries in Liv
erpool (t'>onJuneiion with Mr. James Speuoe)
of tbe Confederate Government. At tbe time
the vessel was seized she was lying in the
Tozteth dook, a quiet, out of the way place.
An iron ship-building firm, near tbe build
ers of the Alexandria, have a Urge iron gun
boat, of about twelve hundred tons, on the

is now stated that our Governmci-t k«- i--'«ed

although there waa every appeaihui - of tiitiugs-
up for guns, there were actually no nui on
board the Alexandria. The vessel however is
now in eba rge of government officiaU. and no
doubt the investigation which ia to take place
will elucidate whether there weregnnson board
or not. The excitement among the geneles
men of Southern proclivities is very great.
Laird’s famous shipyard, at Liverpool, where
the Alabama was built, it would seem by the
following paragraph of a Liverpool letter, pub
lished in the Manchester Guardian, ia also to be
watched.
Tbe Government, in addition to the seizure of
the Alexandria on tbe Liverpool aide of the
M.-raey, are about, if they have not already
done ao, io put the building yard of Merssrs.
Laird & Brothers, at Birkenhead, under a kind

erpool that the gunboats now in coarse of cons
struction at the Birkenhead Iron Works are
intended for the Confederate Government.—
Information, we know, haa been received m
Liverpool of the above inteuiou ol the Govs
ernment.
We confess therefore, that if the statement
said to be made by the Times, of fourteen vee-
sela ot the Confederate i-avy having actually put
to sea, shall tarn out to be correct, we shall be
surprised as well as delighted.—Richmond En

Vhe Unfortunate Wounding of Stonewall
The Richmond Enquirer el the litt inot. says
A telegram on yesterday morning announced
the fact that General Jackson's arm had been
amputated, and that tie was doing well. Mrs.
Jackson, who ia »t present in the city, has been
informed by a letter of the melancholy circums
stances under which the General received his
wounds.
The following are the tacts uf the most un.
happpy affair, as derailed in that letter: At mid
night, on Saturday night, his men befog drawn
up in line ot battle, a body ot troops was seen a
short distance in advance of our line. It being
doubtful whether they were Irienda or enemies.
General Jackson and staff rode forward to aecers
tain. Wbilat he waa engaged in reconncitering
his men befog unaware olios movement, mis
took himself and staff for eneomies and fired a
volley iuto them, instantly kilting one of bis
staff and severely woundiog General Jsckaon
and Major Crutchfield. One bullet passed
through the General's right hand, whilst another
struck tus left arm below the elbow and ranging
upward, shattered the bone near the shoulder.
He instantly fell to the ground. Uis brother-in
law,-who was with turn, laid down beside him
to ascertain the character of bis wounds. In a
moment the unknown troops in front, who
proved to be the enemy, advanced and captured
two other staff efficera who were standing over
•he General without noticing him Soon after,
four ol our men placed him on a stretcher, and
were bearing him to Tbe rear, when they were
alt shot down. The ii jury to hia right .hand is
severe, one of the bones having been shot away,
but it ia believed he wilt nblmately recover its
use.
