FROM RICHMOND.
Ricdjioxd, May 30.—The Fredericksburg
correspondent of the Examiner, says, indica
tions and intelligence from the enemy’s camp,
favor the conclusion that Stafford is being eva
cuated, but tbe destination of tSe army is
jndnubt. ' .. !
Tno Examiner says editorially, there seems
no longer any doubt but Hooker is making,
same important movement. A gentleman from
Fredericksburg yesterday, assures us he saw
‘ upwards of tweuty thousand Yankees moving
down fn the direction of Port Royal. "
The army of Northern Virginia is to be de
rided into three corps d’armies, commanded
respectively, by Longstreet, Ewell and A. P.
Hill.
F*om the Clerk op toe Weather.—Seven
and one—tenth inches of rain fell in Macon on
Thursday last,-according to the hydrometer at
the Gas House. This is the -heaviest fall of
raio in one day known of late years, or indeed
since the wet limes of Noah.
H VLLEOK AND HOOKER.
Tito last Northern news intimates that Hal*
lock is about to jump Into the ring single hand*
ed, and show Gen. Lee an idea or two in the
way of campaigning, that nover entered into
his cranium. Lee is not yet too old to learn,
and we have no doubt would-sland ready to
. take a lesson in tho art of war from Hilleck.
But all this talk of displacing Hooker comes
from outsiders. Tho Dictator himself still
clings to Hooker. Tho latter has been the
guest of Lincoln at tho White* House, and sat
isfied him that ti e recent change of base was
due to the blunders of Stoneman, who failed to
cut off communication so completely as to pre
vent Longstreet from coming up with over
whelming reiijforcemonts’and wresting tho vie-
lory from Hooker’s grasp.
The falsity about Longstreet’a reinforce
ments is the only salvo to Federal pride and
they cling to it with the tenacity of a death-
grip. Ccmpell them to beliqvo that Hooker’s
“grand army ” of 150,000 was beaten by Lee
rith lea* titan a third of the namber, if you
ctnl It wga’t do to believe it. It would outs
rage all Feder al prestige, glory, groatneWK and
grandness'to believe such a fact; and Hooker
.has sliowd no little astuteness in selecting bis
scape-goat on this occasion. How could
Longsti eel’s army have come up, if Stoneman
tiud dune his work thoroughly* and that it did
come up is certain, or Hooker with his 150,-
000 could nev»r b%ve been driven across the
Eippaliantiock. Hooker has therefore en
trenched himself securely behind the ram
parts of Federal self esteem. . Tho Yankees
are not going to disputo a falsehood which is
essential to the National reputation.
No, Hooker is not to be turned oat. We
maintain lto is tbe best representative man the
Yanks have yet placed at the head of their
grand armies. Wiry do they scold about his
gasconade over his defeat? It is not one whit
worse than McClellan’s over his change of base
at York river. Nay; it is not so stupendous a
lie, for Hooker was not so completely whipped,
and had a great deal more Ieit to brag over.—
He had not, as he says, “delivered a general
battle.” The lact is, Leo left him no chance
to do it; but struck hint right and left, here
and there, in a sudden manner, at unexpected
.places, and with bewildering results, till he
found his “grand army" so deranged, mixed
up and discomposed generally, that like * a
tangled seine, ho had to draw it ashore before
it could be straightened out again. The fault
was Lee’s. Hooker started fairly enough.—
When he put out his order this side of tho Rap-
tpahannock, everything was right He had Lee
where he must either give battle on ground of
Hooker's own choosing, or retreat ingloriously
to Richmond.
When, therefore,unexpectedly Hooker found
all his plans upset, and the Confederates as
sailing him in totally wrong quarter^ it is no
wonder, as he says in his second order, that
he refused to “deliver a general hattlc.” Who
would want to bo delivered under such cir
cumstances? It was death; and, therefore, in
"withdrawing from the south bank of the Rap
pahannock," and standing for his right “to
give or decline battle” when he pleased, Hook
«r did as mutfh as could reasonably have been
anticipated, l n the promise and performance
Df his two orders, he has justly and fairly re
presented his government—who have been at
the same business ever since they first under
took to crush the robcllio#in thirty days. If
he is more of a braggart than their tfoung Na
poleon McClellan or more untruthful, we fail
•o see it -
A FLOOD OF FEDERAL GLORY.
The Northern papers of tho 24th are over
flowing with glory. “ Vicksburg was taken."
"The Stars and Stripes float from the rebel
Sebastopol 1 ” Oannon, flags, military stores,
and rebel prisoners in myriads grace tho tri
umph of the immortal Grant There never
was such a glorification. They were so high
U P that a sudden fall any where to tho level of
Itots will break all their bones that is certain.
They are in tho situation of the young county
court orator, when he got considerably above
fl>e stars, and was interrupted by the Judge.
“My dear sir,” says his honor, “without a bal
loon or a long ladder you’re a dead man."
YANKEE TELEGRAMS.

second in *the Mobile Tribune. Greenbacks

reacehd New York
Tpscumbia, May 27.—Tho Memphis Bulletin
of the 24th, under 'thA caption—“Glorious
News from Vicksburg—Haines’s Bluff and
8,000 Prisoners Taken—Upper Vicksburg Bat
teries in Po.-session of Grant—Federal Loss
Very Heavy—-Rebel Loss, killed, wounded and
prisoners, Terrible ”—says:
The wteamcr Empress has arrived from
Young’s Point, with information from -Vicks
burg to theiJOtb. The news by he*s of the
rooSt important character. McPiteraon’s corps,
after a desporato fight on tho part of the rebels
and heavy loss to. tho Federals, was successful
in whipping the rebels. Gen. Gregg, on Fri
day, the 15th, had inarched triumphantly into
Jackson, and was in strong prosition at last
dates. The rebels, after their defeat, fell hack
towards Canton.-'’, .
Soon as it was .known that Jackson was
taken, a movement was made on Haines’s
and Chickasaw Bluffs—the Federals under
Gen. Sherman. The rebels, theru entrench
ed, were determined to hold and occupy .the
Bluffs to the last
Gen. Sherman made the attack in the most
gallant manner, and after several engage
ments, with a heavy Federal loss, he occupied
tho field, capturing 8,000 prisoners, 100 heavy
guns, 1,000 arms, comps, ammunition, and a
iatgo quantity of commissary stores. The
loss to tho rebels in killed and wounded is
awfuL The prisoners were paroled and sent
across the Yazoo river.
On Sunday, Gen. Grant ordered tho attack
to be made on the upper batteries, at Vicks-
|}urg, and, simultaneously, tho gunboats-com
menced bombarding the water batteries, at the
same place. It is stated by gentlemen, who
stood at DeSoto Point, immediately opposite.
Vicksburg, that, on Thursday, Gen. Grant
took their guns on the hill, and turned them
on tnc flank of those who were at tho water
batteries.
Fifteen thousand paroled prisoners’ came
over to the Point, witn a flag of truce on that
flay, being sent from Vicksburg. They slato
that Gen. Grant had possession of the entire
line of fortifications surrouuding Vicksburg,
and that rube! officers told them, it was im
possible, since the capture.of Haines’s* Bluff,
lor them to resist.. Tnere was a wilderness -of
contusion existing in the town. The soldiers
marched lroui point to point, tbe officers being
unable to keep tl^em in line of battle. Speeches
were made by officers, assuring the soldiqrs
that they would receive largo reinforcements,
and tb£t Grant would be attacked m the rear,

eral. Their force, iu Vibkshurg, is estimated
at 3,000. It is stated that Gen. Johnston had
started to Vicksburg with 19,000 men, but had
been cut off and driven back.
When the Empress arrived at Milliken’s
Bend, on Wednesday, tho firing at Vicksburg
and up the Yazoo had gradually ceased, which
leaves no doubt of tho occupation of tho entire
Vicksburg fortifications, as- well as alt sur
rounding points by Gen. TJrant.

The Chattanooga Rebel of the 30th says :
Wo believe that tho army of the Cumber
Jand ia In a weaker condition to-day, than it
has been since the .battle- of Murfreesboro.
The late demonstrations of cavalry have been
merely for effect. No general advance has
been intended, or will be made very speedily.
Rosecranz has doubtless sent off several slices
of succor to Grant, relying upon his fortifica
tion to keep Bregg out of tho heart of liis
army. All the Yankee letters which have
fallen into our hands indicate this, and hence
we do not anticipate any great movement in
Middle Tennessee, unless our'troops assail the
whole posse nf renegades who are trampling
under foot every vestige of right or doconcy,
and send them howling towards the Ohio
river. Roseoranz himself knows very well
how to throw dust in tho eyes of an enemy,
and is now trytog to blind us to his weakness.

DEPLETION OF THE ENEMY. .
Thero are gratifying evidences that the enemy has
exhausted his best energies in tho struggle for our
subjugation,’and that from this time his efforts will
be the spasmodic endeavors of desperation. From
every military department reliable intelligence
reacnes us that the troops whoso term of saryioe-
lias expired are going home, while we nowhere lieu,
of any material accession to theTederal forces from
enlistment or conscription.
From North Carolina, the Newbern correspondent
of tho New York World intorms us that 18,000 of
the nine months and two years regiments are being
mastered out of Foster’s army. From the Rappa
hannock, we learn that on one day of week before
last five transports, containing 6.000 men, left Aqula
Creek for Washington, being a porticu of those
whose term of enlistment had expired Tho Herald
admits that from two to four regiments per day are
arriving at home frdrn the army ot the Potomac;
and late telegraphic advices from the North state
that the departures have been ae great as to break
up Gen. Humphrey's division. Passengers from
New Orleans say that 9,000 are going home from
Gen. Ranks’ army, and the same reports come from
the armies of Grant and Rosecranz.
The number of effective men thus leaving the
Federal service during the mouthsof May and June
will be between £00,out) and 300,000. The draft thus
far has not been enforced, and from our own expe
rience with the conscription, it will be some months
before their places can be filled, if its enforcement
is attempted, and when filled, that numbers of levies
of raw conscripts will add very little to the efficien
cy of their army.
We allude to these tacts, not as an indicative of
any probable cessation of -hostilities or evidences of
decay in the resonreos of the enemy, for we doubt
not that he will bo able,’ from the legions of misera
ble creatures that swarm in his borders, to keep up
an army much more numerous than our own, and
there Is no evidence ot relaxation in the Puritanic
oLadnacy with which he has persisted in his purpo
ses of subjugation.
Rut they afford a_ cheering element of hope in the
survey of the oponiug summer campaigu, and wo
look forward with cheerful confidence, that with
unabated vigor and determination, we may, under
tbff’continued favor of Heaven, bring the year to d
close with results as glorious to our arms as those
which crowned our efforts ias’t year.
We have tbe inspiring prestige of a series of un
exampled successes to nerve'us on to tho achieve
ment of fresh triumphs, while the enemy looks back
upon a year black with a record of humiliating re
verses. t We have, therefore, much to encourage us
in pressing bravely forward, until wesurmoimt eve
ry obstacle in the path to independence and pease.

• •> ANOTHER UUAKREL BREWING.
Credulous Confederates imagined they aam c“r-
States and Eiigloncl oh severardffftSHuiii, Unt Qn
were very soon swept away by the ingenious art of
diplomacy. Hitherto, remarks the Richmond Whig,
tho insults and outrages have all come from one
side. True, the honor, veracity, humanity, civiliza
tion and Christianity of the United States have b ten
scoffed at'by Rrisish writers and speakers. • But
these are not insults to the Yankee, nor do they
constitute in his eyes a provacation of war. Rut a
genuine casus belli has at last oocurred. Tho Island
of Sombrero, au enormous guano dunghill lying in
the Carribbean Sea, has for yews past been wor ted
by Hie Yankee shipowners and suarchers for the
great modem manure. The United States flag has
been hoisted over immense piles of filth, and under
it tho laho^of Yankee love has been piled, industri
ously and pftifitably since 1856, without let or hin
drance from her Majesty's Government. Ail of a
sudd Jn Captain Tatiiam, of H. B. M.’s ship Pha ton,
We are informed* that* the 20th Missouri on the pretext-that tho island had been surveye d in
1S10, and again in 1850, by British officer.-., and tl ink
ing, to use Mr. Layard’s language in Parliament,
js ;*hy allo-fring the United States Hug to Yemain hoist
ed while lie whs there, it might bo inferred that lie
thereby acknowledged the sovereignty of the United
States,’’ he landed on tile island, and politelj “re
quested that it (the C. S. flag) should bo hauled
down, and, on refusal, caused it to bo pulled down/,’
Ifit ls true'that the-mo3t cowardly cock will fight
over his own dung hill, we may .-afoly conclude
that there will be a collision over this ruilliag of
tho feathers of Doodlcdom. Tho flag—the old rag
which has been theralljingcry for raising so many
recruits to enrich Southern soil has been outraged,
aud of course there must be a fight oranother back-
out. Great Britain cannot recede, for tho Sum-
brero guano is British property, and must be pro*
tccted. This hauling down ot tho Yankee flag is
an event of very recent occur:cnee, aud Mr. Lay*
ardsays no correspondence has passed on the sub
ject. It is an uuinistakeable aud irrcconrillable
casus belli, and if the Yankees don’t resent it, why,
they will lose their goano—that’s all, and guano
with tljem Is worth more than honor.

A SAD SPECTACLE.
There-passed through this city on Monday after- ■ //OHB .Uon*e and Lotailuxted between ttat occupied
noon, the remains of two gallant young soldiers J. .|Kfft,VJonuSn Mutbe?;
from North Alabama. One was killed on the field H
of Chancellorsvill’e, and the other digd from tho ef
fects of wounds received in the same memorable
engagement. Theirnames was Hzsar—brothers by
blood, brothers inarms, and brothers in death. On
many a field, from Richmond to the last crossing ot
the Rappahannock, they had fought side by side, and
rendered their country and their cause signal ser
vice,- But at length their days are finished, the
measure of their duties full, and both were called,
almost at the same time, to eternity. Their remains
were followed by two negroes, slaves of the de
ceased, one of whom tenderly steadied the coffins as
they were hauled through the streets, and the other
boro on his shoulder sucn valuables as they had left,
which he was carrying home to the bereaved ana
heart-broken family. They seemed profoundly af
fected at the loss of their masters, of whom they
■poke with the greatest reverence And love. From
