GoLpsnoro, April 13.—The news of a partial victory over the abolitionists near Washington reached us to-day. It appears that the Yan- kes, wnter loser, marcbing to the relief of . Wasbington, now invested by our troops, were met en rorte last Thursdry evening; near Biand's cn k, by Gen. Pettigrew. No loss on our side. THK SITUATION. 7 i Itis evident from the fact that the Confed- erates are burrying up reinforcements to the Rappahannock, and from the:tone of the Rieh- mond papers, that the Confederates ate fally imprissed with the belief that they are to haye heavy work on hihd very shortly somewhere vetween here and Richmond. The Richmond Eraminer (as quoted from elsewhere) thinks tue story of the affair at Charleston will be quicily lost in «the thundering rush ofeyeats.” ; Meantime, prompt as they usually are in getting information from our lines, they seem just now a good deal bothered as to the exact j point of their long front upon which Hooker | will throw his formidable army. While they have fortified and entrenched with anxious | caretothe very water's edge, and massed troops i wherever they apprehend a crgsping, they { seem nervous yet lest Hooker,shall select some | unexpected pointand line of advance, the more | especially as it :s understeon as well in Rich- j mond as in Washington that he proposes to i disencamber himeelf of baggage trains, and make * good ttme” when once headed toward Riebmon4, —— | GENBRAL FOSTER. j The-steamer « Dudley Buck” brings rather a { marvyeliéus account from Newbern, N.C. as ta the satety of Gen. Foster and his force at | Wasebington, N. C. From this it Appears he | was surrounded by 27,000 rebels, (rather a i large number to epare from the rebel ferces for | the sake of taking 1,200 men;) and that 9,000 ! Union troops had left Newbern by the way of i Neuse river, to reinforce him, (acircuit of sixty | wmailes.) and that the same 4,000, or #,000.addi- | tional, had been “inextricably fixed in the | mud,” 60'as to raisé a +‘ doubt of their Sbility to | escape the rebets” on their retarn to Newbern. The roud is probably quite as thick for the revels as itis for the Union troops, either by Isnd or water! Previous accounts have, how- ever, agreed that the rebels, 17,000, were behind Washington, on the other side of Tar river, and that Gém. Foster depended upon his own force 4nd the fortifications, and the garrisou of Union troope, Union people previously there, to | defend the town. The rebels, by one account, have threatened to shell the place, not from the othier’side of Tar river, which is a mile wide in fropt of Washington, N. C.; but of course fromthe rear. If from the other side (between Newbern and Washington,) the shelling would | be from‘an impenetrable swamp, and that is not likely. From this swamp a draw-bridge: of nearly one mile in length extends over to the town, which is elevated some twenty feet above the river, so that Gen. Foster can de-. fend the bridge against any rebels.coming from the wey ef Newbern, or he can cross the bridge and sustain himself from the rebels snpposed | ty be im the rear of the town; or he cau Jevy on the vessels at the place, and either go up the Tar river to Greenville, or go south by the | Fambico river to the Sound, back te Newbern. | This river abounds with fine shad at this sea- | son ad fitch of all varieties, and the town is the depot for provisions for miles around; so there és no immediate fear cr starvation at present, especially as we haye kept a Union force there previously. The small force he Las could subsist there forany leng‘h of time. Gen. Foster is safe enough. The rebels must | shell 4he town before he’ surrenders, or he can crogs the bridge and defend it, or he can defend bimself frem aay force. approaching from the other side. HO.
