TV Wilmington Journal of the 19th has
ihe following : We regret to learn from a
who knows, that Gen. Hill 8 ex
frclition towards N* wbern failed of accom
i*hing one of its main object#—that of
drawing the enemy out. At lGep Gully,
■ ue nirles from Newbern,Gen. Hillencoun
ttred a force of the enemy consisting of two
r gimenti of infantry and a battery of field
artillery. Here a brisk fight was kept up
f,r a short time, when the enemy retreated
iD the direction of Newborn.
About this time Gen Pettigrew being on
the north tide of the Neuco river, opened
on an earthwork on the South aide of the
river, but in consequence of an accident to
one of his guns, which resulted in the los>=
of three of his men killod, and tdteen
w mnded, and also the arrival of heavy rein
forcements to the enemy, he had to re toe.
Several transports arrived New hern on
Saturday evening. 14tb 0.0. Kubertaon is
reported to have succeeded io getting pos
session ot the railroad below Newberii, and
iu destroying a portion °f the trac an
burning a bridge by which a tram was des
""i,, were lost in Gen Hill's immedi
ate command, and his horse was not struck
with Minni* balN, as telegrapeed from Ral
eigh In fact there has been altogether too
much sensation made out of this affair,
which, 90 fur, in barren of results, and which,
as we have every reason to believe, never
wa , intended for a direct attack upon New
bern.
We know, but do not think it proper to
i*av, where General Hill's force* are at the
present time.
Considerable mystery seems to be attached to
this expedition to Newbern, and of its results. —
Jiy some it U called a feint. A feint for what?
To make a feeble attack, and withdraw to bring
the enemy out? If so it does not seem to have
succeeded, and what the present etate of the case
in, no one aeems to know. No general account of
the particulars has been published. The gun spo
ken of us bursting belonged to the Macon Light
artillery of this city, and a letter from one of its
members does not speak of any one being killed,
bit only three wounded, by the names of, Chad
wick, Lamb and Corpl. Waitze.
SPECULATORS AND RAILROAD MEN.
A nice little game is given in the Colum
bus, (Miss.) Republican. No doubt much
greater ones huve.hceu performed and nearer
our locality, where railroad men got no
“suacki" iu the case, by the transportation
of large amounts of produce, under cover of
“government stores," which never found
their way to the issuing Commissary. Great
impositions have undoubtedly been practiced
on the unwary, in making purchases, which
yet, may bo investigated, and the villiauous
ipeculutor held up to public execration.
“A little incident came to our knowledge
of a certain party, who had purchased a
large amount of wool and a trifle over one
thousand dollars worth of sugar. The wool
was especially valuable uud the sugar was
also to be got through. After some manoeu
ver on the part of the owner, he got a car
udJ loaded it, up, paying handsomely for
the same, putting the sugar in sacks. When
the car came to be switched on the track,
the switchman deinaded his part,, and re
ceived we believe, S4O. Soon after the
engineer cam* 3 along and declared that, he
be never would take that wool and sugar
through without half the sugar. It was
given him Soon after the conductor came
along, and stated that, the wool eould go, !
but he must have the other half of the su- I
g&r. There was no appeal and the other
half followed the first. The owner had al
io paid freight in advauce for both wool
and sugar.
“So we go. Our people may suffer for
the necessaries of life—our soldiers are put
on half rations for the want of supplies,
that speculators and railroadmen may make
a fortune.
Fight on the lazoo.
Greneda, March 12.—Information bas been re
ceived here from the Yaroo, giving the particu
lars of an atiair between the enemy’* gunboats*
eajjour batteries yesterday. Two of the boats
advanced, and on gaining what was supposed to
be a lavorable position, tired two shots at us in
quick succession.
A reply was made by our heavy guns, and the
enemy soon retired. The attacking boat was
struck by a shell, which set fire to her cotton bul
warks, and they weie soon partially thrown over
board. What other damage, if any, was done,
was not ascertained. We have not heard from
the enemy since.
Two empty boxes have floated down and lodged
against our raft, marked Com. J. B. Hall, U. S. N.,

took place yesterday near the Rappahan
nock, Within r ix miles »f Culpepper Court
House The enemy was driven across the
river with heavy loss. Our loss will not

The N Y. Times says a combiued atack
on Vicksburg may be looked for daily, for
ft will be impossible for Grant to leave his
ineu and vessels of the Yazoo expedition
where they now are. It was probably in
tended that all the movements were to be
simultaneous.
March 19.—N0 move
ments of importance is reported from the
front to-day. The enemy have fallen baek
from Murfreesboro’. Our forces have uot
advanced as yet. The movement on the
part of the enemy is thought to be but a
feint, by Roseucians.
A gentleman from Kentucky say* ten
thousand reinforcements by the way of Lou

ville, Ala.
Mobile, March 19.—The Jackson Ap
peal of the 17th says, reports this morning
from Port Hudson represent a serious out
break in the Federal array, which, if cor
rect, probably accounts for the retrograde
movement of Banks’ army. Scouts report
that several Yankee regiments laid down
their arms and were sent back.
Another rumor is that two regiments of
Generals Rust’s command were driven back
by greatly superior forces of the enemy.
The Mobile Tribune of to-day has the fol

A special dispatch to the Jackson Appeal,

News from Fori Hudson.
Port Hudson, March 21. —Reports of
the sinking of the sloop of war Richmond
from injuries received on the night of the
15th instant, prevails. Nothing definite
however, has been ascertained. The mortar
fleet still occupied their old position, out of
range. Yesterday the enemy fired slowly,
but without effect. A party of the enemy
landed from theii transports and burned tbe
residence of Capt. J. Hern, formely that of
Col. Sidney Roberson; on the opposite shore.
The tame activity prevailed a xaong the ene-

have arrived here in the last two days, and

The Natchez Courier says the ths Hart
ford, the Federal Flag Ship, with Com.
Farragut on board anchored in front of the
city, on Tuesday the ICtb. In the after
noon the Commodnre sent a small boat with
a flag of truce ashore, with a note addressed
to the Mayor, stating that if the United
States’ Boats were fired on by the people of
Natchez, or by Guerrillas, he would bom

The Hartford remained all night, but
left together with tiie Monongahela next
morning.
That there is a violation of veracity—to
givethe mildest name—between M. Merrier,
the French Minister, and William II Seward,
the Yankee Secretary of State, is patent
to all who have read the lately published
correspondence. These who know the abili
ties and success of Seward in attacks on
voracity will be equally ready to accord him
the credit of this achievement, even wore
there no guarantees for tho character of the
other correspondent.
The truth in this ease, as stated by a
Loudon paper, would have been creditable
to Seward, and, ou the whole not injurious
to his cause; but he characteristically pre
ferred another version of the case.

Ivlacon County Preseaitiuent*.
We, the Grand Jurors, sworn, chosen and select
ed for March Term, 1863, Macon Superior Court,
beg leave to make the following general pi<?!*r>at
ments :
We have examined the books the Clark of the
Superior Court and also of the Court ot Ordinary,
and find them very neatly and correctly kept.
indeed, the manner in which die books of the
public officers of the county are kept, is 9U:-h da tO
reflect much credit on these officers.
Upon examination of the boaks of the Clerk of
the Inferior Court, we find them neatly and cor
rectly kept, but find on examination of tho estrsy
book, «ome delinquencies on the part of certain
Magistrates, in making report of sales ot estrxys.
and recommend to the Inferior Court an inveellga
tion of the matter.
We have also examined the books and voucher*
of the County Treasurer and find them correct

We have also examined the bonks and vouchers
of the Treasurer ot the Relief Fund of Macon
county, raised by taxation for the relief of indi
gent families of soldiers, and find them correctly
kept, showing the amount received by tbe Trea*-
urer up to this time, for the present year.#6,5.11 00
And amount paid out 4,732 25
Leaving a balance in bauds of Treasurer. *I,OBB 75
We have also carefully examined the public
building* aud find them in good repair. We think,
however, that there should be more light in ?be
Clerk’* office of the Superior Court, and would
therefore recommend that another wiudow be cut
iu tbe west cud ot i?aid office and tilled with sash
and lights. The Jail, though iu very good repair,
is badiy kept, being quite dirty. We think tbe
bedding is not aufficieut, or not as much as should
be provided, aud therfore recommend that one
moie mattress and necessary covering be procure
ed ; also one chamber mug, ouc water bucket or
pitcher aud one broom, aud ouc lock for the trap
deor.
We neither approve of nor admire the condition
of tba Jail lot; we find it enclosed with a rail tence
and tue entire lot sown in wheat, making the jsil
present the appearauee more of an out house in a
wheat field, tuan of a county jail on public ground.
\V e therefore recommend the Infeiior Court to
have the rail fence entirely removed from the jail
lot, aud that the jail be enclosed by a good plank
fence and the balance of the jail lot be unencum
bered.
We have information of the great public nui.
sance on the part of various individuals in the
town of Oglethorpe, intruding on the public lights
by inclosing different Streets, Alleys and rights of
way, and therefore recommend that the proper
authorities take immediate steps to have tiieac* ob
structions removed.
From investigation we fiud that the public roads
and bridges in a great portion of tbe coumry are
in bad repair, and in tbe opinion of thia body, it
is the result of negligence on tbe part of the In
ferior Court, in not baring the Coumi'ialocer? of
d.uadj *pjuiUied at an earlier date. We, there
’••fe, iitoutOiend the Interior Court to have the
road* and bridge* pat in good condition as soon
as practicable

At a regular meeting of Millwood Lodge No 198.
f. A. M. March 1 Ith 13d3, the following was un
animously adopted,
An aUiae Providence has seen fit to remove from
our uildst our esteemed friend and brother Jesse
W. Cone, who died ot Typhoid Fueumouia in the
hoipital, ai Cumberland Gap, Tennessee, on the
lSth February Lat.
He was born in Houston County Geo. on the
11th June 1835, and was a resident of Dooly Coun
ty Geo. at the time of his death. Ue was an efli
cient member of the Lodge ; a devoted friend a
brave soldier, an humble Christian in all the re
lations of life. He acted upon the principle ol
“doing unto others as he would they should do
unto him.” In him the family b»* sustained »
great loss, but more particularly his mother as iu
wa<her favorite child. In response to the Gov
ernors call in the fall of ’6l, lor State defences,
he unhesitatingly forsook the pleasures of a happy
home, and with the courage of a true ptriot, join
ed in our common defence.
At the expiration of this campaign he retdrn
ed to the loved ones at home. After the Com pa
ny to Which he was attached (belonging to the 7ill
State troops at that time) reorganized it was con
nected to the f>sth Geo. for Confederate service
and so acted in the capacity of Sergeant a* to ob
tain the highest degree of esteem.
His many virtues are worthy of imitation Uv all
who knew him.
He died iif the triumph ol a living faith, where
we hope to meet him in the Grand Lodge above.
Kesolved, That a blank page be left on the min
utes on which the name of our brother and the
diitc ot his death be recorded.
Resolved, That we deeply sympathise with the
family connection in this their sad bereavement.
Kesolved, l bat the Lodge be draped in mourn
ing and ihe usual badge be warn for the space of
thirty days.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be
be furnished the parents of the deceased f that a
copy be furnished the Secretary of the Lodge, and
one sent to the Journal & Messenger for publi
