Importance of the State tothe Coufede: cy—Startiimg Statements en Blockade. Ku ro Nawpxxn, March 19.—The recent raid orto Ricbmcnd caused the rebel Gen Picket! tosend several regiments to Virginia just asae was Treacy to commence operations in this direc. tion. These regiments are evidently returu- ing to carry out their original intentions Gov. Vance, ina recent epeech, staed that Gen. Lre depends upon North Oarotina for the svpportot bisarmy. He dwells upon the in. porance of keeping the railrosds of this State b gcod condition, on the grouna that Gen. Lee could not remain in they fall. The Wilmington Journal eays statistics for the past year show that on an average only oue out of twenty blockade ruuners have been captured. A report of Gov. Vance, showing the afrount of rebel supplies receiwed throngh tee blockaded port, discloses most startling thinge. Everything the enemy could ask for is re- ceived tbrougb this channel in great quanti- ties. An experienced naval officer has remark- ed that owing tothe peculiar sitnatien of the coust, and ite numerous channels, ¢ mbracing ®n area of thirty miles, the entire navy of the ' d States could nut make the blockade of Wilmington effective.
