LATEST NEWS FROM THE SEAT OF
WAR IN THE STATES.
Bey the Mail this morning we have the following
telegrama relating tu the progress of the Civil
War ia the Stztes. If they are to be depended
upou—and it iv with great reluctance we place
any dependence upon the telegrams—it would ap-
pear that the Northern Army hea met with a most
disgatrous reverse, which will, ne deabt, pro-
portionably increase the confidence, vigour and
streugth of the Coufederates, and thus prolong this
melancholy war. It is quite evident there must
be exbaustion on one side or the other beture
peace can be restored ; and it will require many
reverses to exhatat the immense reeources of the
North, aad subdue the revengeful apirit by which
it is anunated towards the Svuth.

. ~ GREAT SLAUGHTER AT FREDERICKS-
BURG—ANOTHER FEDERAL DEFEAT.
We give under the usual head the telegrams to
the St. John Assoeiated Press respecting the bat-
tle at Fredericksburg, but these are not se full as
others received here and at Calais.
It would appear by the Federal * counts that
the fighting commenced on Saturday afternoon,
the Confederates being the attacking parties and
gainiag the advantage. On Sunday fighting was
continued, the Federals by Sunday evening being
ma better position than their antagenists. On
Monday afternoon the Confederates under Long-
street attacked the Federal position on Freder-
icksborg heights, driving the latter back over the
river to Falmouth, aud forcing them to join
Hooker's main army. Stenewall Jackson, who
was said to have been in Teanessee, turned up at
exactly the right mument, and with his usual
luck gave the Federals a sound drubbing. We
anuex all the “special” despatches received up to
the hour ef going to press.
New Yoru, May 56.— The Tines and Herald
contain long and interesting accounts of the pro-
ceedings cf Gen. Hooker's army. The Times
correspondent states that after three days skir-
mishing of both sides, the rebels on Saturduy
afterneon and evening attacked our right flank.
Jackson with bis whole force of 40,000 men
throwing himself onfGen. Howard's corps, but the
movement was only partially successful, and rein-
forcements being promptly sent by Gen. Hooker
the rebels were handsowely caecked, Howard's
consisted of Schurz, Stimmellor’s and Deven’s
divisions, |
The Times correspondent states that Deven’s
division disgracefully abandoned their position be-
hind the breastworks, and rushed panic stricken
towards the headquarters. Our right was thus
completely turned, and the rebels in a fair way of
doubling us up. Gen. Hooker was namediately
in bis saddle, and turning to the eommander of his
own old corps. Gen. Berry, shouted, “‘ General,
throw your men into the breach and reevive the
enemy on your bayonets! Don’t fire a shot.
‘They can't see you!” They rushed gloriously at
the double quick to the rescue, pressing forward a
horrid array of glistening steel. The enemy were
checked znd returned to the breastworka just
abandoned by Howard's corps. Batteries were
immediately massed on the crestof the hill, pouring
in a terrific fire until late in the night. General
Pleasanton also checked the enemy with a flying
battery of a dozen pieces. He drew up his little
brigade of cavalry with drawn sabres to protect
the guns. He had them double shotted with can-
ister and swept the evemy’s position with a
murderous fire.
In this charge of the rebels they took from the
cowardly Dutchmen, as the Times correspondent
styles them 12 pieces of canoon. The Germans
fled past Gen. Hooker's head quarters in a panic,
many of the members of Hooker's staff with pistols
and sabres vainly endeavoring to stay their fight.
Gen. Sykes’ regulars are picking them up.—
What wade this retreat most disastrous was the
fact that Gen. Sickles had by a branch read
pierced the enemy's centre and penetrated for a
mile, cut them in twain, and seemed the key to
vietery, when the turning of Howard's position
obliged him to retreat, bringing off 400 rebel pri-
sovers.— lhe artiliery combat continued fiercely
uatil inid-night.
Another correspoudent of the Times dating San-
day evening says it was reported from Gea. How
acd’s frowt that the rebels bad been engaged all
Friday uight cutting a road past his right, but not
mach atiention was paid tothe aci. Ou the afier-
noon of Satucduy it was reported by the pickets on
the right of Genral Slocumb’s front that wagons had
been seen moving all duy in a wesierly direction.
Gen. Sickles with a heavy force was sent to recon-
uoitee whea the advance fell in wiih the rear of
Gen. Jeckson's army. Gen. Sickles immediately
uushed on to checkmate Jackson, and soon captured
THE FRENCH IN MEXICO.
Ver Cruz dates of April 13 states that Puebja
was completely surrounded. The attack com-
menced on the 27th, and the Penitentiarie carried
by assault on the 3iet—Atter entering the city,
the two principal streets Jeading to the Plaza aud
the Cathedral, both of which are fortified. The
soldiers then entered the houses, and, aided by
the Suppers and Miners, passed from one house
tw another, and on the 3rd inst., had thus worked
their way to within 100 metres of the Plaza. Up
to that hour the French had lost from 500 te 600
killed aud wounded. —Lannier, the chief of artil-
lery, was killed, and Col. Launier badly wounded.
It is estimated that the entire force of Ortega
in the city is 25,000 men. The bridge over the
Rio Preito was held by the French, thus prevent-
ing Comonfort, with 12,000 reinforcements, from
entering.
Anotner arrival from Vera Cruz 26tn inst.,
states that a mail fram Puebla had been received
coutaining advices of the capture of the Piuza and
Cathedral, but the city was still commanded by
Forts Guadaloupe aad Loreto, but nothing is said
as tu ther opening fire on the Freach. Puebia
was filled with barricades. One-third of Puebla
is claimed by the French to be in their possession,
as the result of thirteen days fighting.
San Franetsco, April 29.—The French papers
publish letters from the city of Mexico to the sth,
representing that Forey is in possession of the
environs of Puebla, and master of the cewmu-
nication and fortified works commanding ihe city.
He continued advancing slowly but surely, and
without sacrifice of soldiers. Lutelligent persons
think that Forey has manouvred tuo enclose the
Mexican army in Puebla, and will ultimately cap-
ture all—more than 20,000,
Oficial accounts ef the same date take an en-
couraging view, and say the besieged forces were
fully able to repulse the French. The principal
fortifications still remain intact. There are sixty-
tour fortified buildings in the city, ineluding three
fortresses of great strength. The Mexican
soldiers have shown remarkable bravery. The
French loss over 500 kiled and wounded in
attacking one fort.
BLACKWOOD AND THE GREAT REVIEWS.
We do no discredit to the periodical literatare
of France, Germany, and America, and the nume-
rous English, Scottish, ard Irish reviews which
are their contemporaries on their own soil, when
we emphatically characterize “The Westmin-
ster,” “The Edinburgh,” “The Quarterly,”
* Blackweod’s,” and the “ North British,” as the
Great Reviews. Each represents a state of
society, or coudition of things, and brings to bear
upon the questions that concern it an amount of
ancient and modern learning, a force of theught
and power of language, which confound with
amazement even the rhetoricians and philosophers
and scholars of the earth.—Philadelphia Evening
Journal,
Sustained, then as these distinguished works
are and ever have been, by the highest order of
scholastic ability and political sagacity, we need
not be surprised te fiud them eccupying such a
proud preminence among the literary productions
of the world: and the neglect of their high claims
upon the consideration of all classes of the iuntelli-
gent community, would necessarily argue a cor-
responding indifference to the great interests of
the common weal.— Everett.
For years, and we might say of some of them
for generations, the four great Reviews of Great
Britain—the Quarterly, Edinburgh, North British
and Westminster—have stood contessedly at the
head ef their class of publications. The same
rank among periodicals has been universally ac-
corded to Blackwood’s Magazine. To these pub-
licationa the best intellect of Great Britain contri-
butes, and no one can be fully posted iu regard to
the great social, ae scientific, and literary
questions of the day, unless he reads these works.
‘The cost of the orginal editions in thie country
would be over forty dollars, whilet the reprints
are furnished at ten dollars per year, No reading
is so cheap and at the same time so valuable as
this.—Cleveland Herald.
Whatever diversity of epiuion may be enter-
tained as to their distinctive merits, the iuforma-
tien conceatrated and the talent evolved in each
is such as to render their possession to the Ameri-
ean scholar and statesman an object of the first
importance,—Dr Nott.
We presume it is not generally known that L.
Scott & Co. have, fur a long time, been paying to
the British Publishers of the Reviews and Black-
wood a large sum annually out of their profits.
They do this not from compulsion but from policy

Of course this disaster compelled the recall of
Gen. Sickles, who had been vigorously at work.
Gen. Williams’ division returned to find a portion
of hia works occupied by the enemy. Gen. Sickles |
could not communicate with the whole of his army |
by the rvute he came, and Gen. Heoker ordered a
wight attack to restore the communication. Gen.
Ward's brigade, aided by Betts’ battery, made an
attack at IL o'clock at night, which was entirely
successiul, and is a charge made by the brigade a
portion of the ardllery lost by Gen. Howard was
gallantly retaken by Gen. Hobart. The enemy was
driven te pearly a mile that night (Saturday )
Oar men slept on their arms. On Sunday, at five
o'clock in the morning, the rebels could be plainly
seen on the plank roud about a wiles from Gen.
Hooker's headquarters at Chancellor's House which
house had been penetrated by a shell. Our line of
battle was immediately formed, and in half an hour
our advance beeame cugaged. The enemy, advane-
ing his infantry in overwhelming force, seemed
determined to crash ours. Geus. Sickles and Slo-
camb’'s brave men, however, held them in cheek,
infliccing great slanghter upon them. French's
division was sent in our right and soon erushed that
pertion of the enemy's line, and at cight o'clock in
the morning French sent his compliments to Gen.
livoker, stating that he had charged the rebels and
was driving them before him.

American arrived at that port last Saturday
evening from Liverpool, tvinging seventeen
American Captains ofmerchant-men. Eleven
of these captains suld their ships abroad, on
account of the immense war riske, and no

“ Trish wit and humor ;” and basing his argument
upon the fact that wit and humor presuppose a
high culture and refinement, briefly drew the in-
ference that nations which excelled in this could
not be held obnoxions to the charge of igvorance.
‘The polished Athenian furnished a case in point;

The following in the certificate issued by the
American Ambassador in London, which has
excited so much indignation :
« Legation of the United States, London,
** April 3, 1863
“« Amid the multitude of fraudulent and dishonest
enterprises from this kingdom tw furnish supplies to
the revels in the United States, through the pre-
tence of a destinatioa to some purt in Mexico, it
gives me pleasure to distinguish one which has a
different purpose. Messrs. Howell and Zirman have
furnished me with evidence, which is perfectly
satisfactory to me, that they are really bound to
Matamoras with a cargo intended for the Mexicans.
I therefore very cheertully give them this certificate
at their request. It is not the dispusitior of the
Government of the United States te interfere in any
way with an honest neutral trade, and it is deeply
to be regretted that the frauds which have been
so extensively practised in thig country have con-
tributed so much to throw it under suspicion.
“ Cuances Faancis ADaMs.

The London Times remarks, ‘‘ the poor
folly of styling the Confederate ships pirates
has just been illustrated by a decision of the
Supreme Court of the United States that a
bond given by representatives of a captured
Federal vessel and cargo to a Confederate
officer for ransom, must be held valid in the
Federal Courts —a decision which harmonises
with a previous one in a case where the
question arose whether the officers and crew
of @ rebel privateer were subject to the
penalties of piracy. On that occasion the
Court laid down that there could be no dis-
tinction between the rebels on the sea and
the rebels on the land. If the latter were to
be treated as prisuners of war, so should the
former.
SPECIAL NOTICES.
Hottoway's OintMeNnt anv Pits. — Healthy
skin.—At certain seasous of the year, skin diseases
are mere troublesome than at other periods ; and on
such occasions are these two famous remedics most
remarkable for their curative powers. The Oint-
ment cures externally the disfigurements arising
from scrotula, scurvy, ringworm, pimples, blotebed
and similar disorders. The Pills purify all the so-
lids and fluids composing the body. The Ointment
not only soothes and heals the surface, but passes
to the glands beneath, cleanses them, expels all im-
parities and rewoves all obstractions. Holloway's
renowned Ointment and Pills possess the very de-
sirable power of ejecting from the human frame the
seeds of the slightest or most virulent skin eruptions
and ulcerous distempers.
Purify, purify, paty the blood with Arernr's
SansapParitea, and the humors, derangements and
distempers which pervade the system at this season
will disappear. We have tried it, and speak with
knowledge.

LATEST NEWS FROM THE SEAT OF
WAR IN THE STATES.
Bey the Mail this morning we have the following
telegrama relating tu the progress of the Civil
War ia the Stztes. If they are to be depended
upou—and it iv with great reluctance we place
any dependence upon the telegrams—it would ap-
pear that the Northern Army hea met with a most
disgatrous reverse, which will, ne deabt, pro-
portionably increase the confidence, vigour and
streugth of the Coufederates, and thus prolong this
melancholy war. It is quite evident there must
be exbaustion on one side or the other beture
peace can be restored ; and it will require many
reverses to exhatat the immense reeources of the
North, aad subdue the revengeful apirit by which
it is anunated towards the Svuth.

BURG—ANOTHER FEDERAL DEFEAT.
We give under the usual head the telegrams to
the St. John Assoeiated Press respecting the bat-
tle at Fredericksburg, but these are not se full as
others received here and at Calais.
It would appear by the Federal * counts that
the fighting commenced on Saturday afternoon,
the Confederates being the attacking parties and
gainiag the advantage. On Sunday fighting was
continued, the Federals by Sunday evening being
ma better position than their antagenists. On
Monday afternoon the Confederates under Long-
street attacked the Federal position on Freder-
icksborg heights, driving the latter back over the
river to Falmouth, aud forcing them to join
Hooker's main army. Stenewall Jackson, who
was said to have been in Teanessee, turned up at
exactly the right mument, and with his usual
luck gave the Federals a sound drubbing. We
anuex all the “special” despatches received up to
the hour ef going to press.
New Yoru, May 56.— The Tines and Herald
contain long and interesting accounts of the pro-
ceedings cf Gen. Hooker's army. The Times
correspondent states that after three days skir-
mishing of both sides, the rebels on Saturduy
afterneon and evening attacked our right flank.
Jackson with bis whole force of 40,000 men
throwing himself onfGen. Howard's corps, but the
movement was only partially successful, and rein-
forcements being promptly sent by Gen. Hooker
the rebels were handsowely caecked, Howard's
consisted of Schurz, Stimmellor’s and Deven’s
divisions, |
The Times correspondent states that Deven’s
division disgracefully abandoned their position be-
hind the breastworks, and rushed panic stricken
towards the headquarters. Our right was thus
completely turned, and the rebels in a fair way of
doubling us up. Gen. Hooker was namediately
in bis saddle, and turning to the eommander of his
own old corps. Gen. Berry, shouted, “‘ General,
throw your men into the breach and reevive the
enemy on your bayonets! Don’t fire a shot.
‘They can't see you!” They rushed gloriously at
the double quick to the rescue, pressing forward a
horrid array of glistening steel. The enemy were
checked znd returned to the breastworka just
abandoned by Howard's corps. Batteries were
immediately massed on the crestof the hill, pouring
in a terrific fire until late in the night. General
Pleasanton also checked the enemy with a flying
battery of a dozen pieces. He drew up his little
brigade of cavalry with drawn sabres to protect
the guns. He had them double shotted with can-
ister and swept the evemy’s position with a
murderous fire.
In this charge of the rebels they took from the
cowardly Dutchmen, as the Times correspondent
styles them 12 pieces of canoon. The Germans
fled past Gen. Hooker's head quarters in a panic,
many of the members of Hooker's staff with pistols
and sabres vainly endeavoring to stay their fight.
Gen. Sykes’ regulars are picking them up.—
What wade this retreat most disastrous was the
fact that Gen. Sickles had by a branch read
pierced the enemy's centre and penetrated for a
mile, cut them in twain, and seemed the key to
vietery, when the turning of Howard's position
obliged him to retreat, bringing off 400 rebel pri-
sovers.— lhe artiliery combat continued fiercely
uatil inid-night.
Another correspoudent of the Times dating San-
day evening says it was reported from Gea. How
acd’s frowt that the rebels bad been engaged all
Friday uight cutting a road past his right, but not
mach atiention was paid tothe aci. Ou the afier-
noon of Satucduy it was reported by the pickets on
the right of Genral Slocumb’s front that wagons had
been seen moving all duy in a wesierly direction.
Gen. Sickles with a heavy force was sent to recon-
uoitee whea the advance fell in wiih the rear of
Gen. Jeckson's army. Gen. Sickles immediately
uushed on to checkmate Jackson, and soon captured
THE FRENCH IN MEXICO.
Ver Cruz dates of April 13 states that Puebja
was completely surrounded. The attack com-
menced on the 27th, and the Penitentiarie carried
by assault on the 3iet—Atter entering the city,
the two principal streets Jeading to the Plaza aud
the Cathedral, both of which are fortified. The
soldiers then entered the houses, and, aided by
the Suppers and Miners, passed from one house
tw another, and on the 3rd inst., had thus worked
their way to within 100 metres of the Plaza. Up
to that hour the French had lost from 500 te 600
killed aud wounded. —Lannier, the chief of artil-
lery, was killed, and Col. Launier badly wounded.
It is estimated that the entire force of Ortega
in the city is 25,000 men. The bridge over the
Rio Preito was held by the French, thus prevent-
ing Comonfort, with 12,000 reinforcements, from
entering.
Anotner arrival from Vera Cruz 26tn inst.,
states that a mail fram Puebla had been received
coutaining advices of the capture of the Piuza and
Cathedral, but the city was still commanded by
Forts Guadaloupe aad Loreto, but nothing is said
as tu ther opening fire on the Freach. Puebia
was filled with barricades. One-third of Puebla
is claimed by the French to be in their possession,
as the result of thirteen days fighting.
San Franetsco, April 29.—The French papers
publish letters from the city of Mexico to the sth,
representing that Forey is in possession of the
environs of Puebla, and master of the cewmu-
nication and fortified works commanding ihe city.
He continued advancing slowly but surely, and
without sacrifice of soldiers. Lutelligent persons
think that Forey has manouvred tuo enclose the
Mexican army in Puebla, and will ultimately cap-
ture all—more than 20,000,
Oficial accounts ef the same date take an en-
couraging view, and say the besieged forces were
fully able to repulse the French. The principal
fortifications still remain intact. There are sixty-
tour fortified buildings in the city, ineluding three
fortresses of great strength. The Mexican
soldiers have shown remarkable bravery. The
French loss over 500 kiled and wounded in
attacking one fort.
BLACKWOOD AND THE GREAT REVIEWS.
We do no discredit to the periodical literatare
of France, Germany, and America, and the nume-
rous English, Scottish, ard Irish reviews which
are their contemporaries on their own soil, when
we emphatically characterize “The Westmin-
ster,” “The Edinburgh,” “The Quarterly,”
* Blackweod’s,” and the “ North British,” as the
Great Reviews. Each represents a state of
society, or coudition of things, and brings to bear
upon the questions that concern it an amount of
ancient and modern learning, a force of theught
and power of language, which confound with
amazement even the rhetoricians and philosophers
and scholars of the earth.—Philadelphia Evening
Journal,
Sustained, then as these distinguished works
are and ever have been, by the highest order of
scholastic ability and political sagacity, we need
not be surprised te fiud them eccupying such a
proud preminence among the literary productions
of the world: and the neglect of their high claims
upon the consideration of all classes of the iuntelli-
gent community, would necessarily argue a cor-
responding indifference to the great interests of
the common weal.— Everett.
For years, and we might say of some of them
for generations, the four great Reviews of Great
Britain—the Quarterly, Edinburgh, North British
and Westminster—have stood contessedly at the
head ef their class of publications. The same
rank among periodicals has been universally ac-
corded to Blackwood’s Magazine. To these pub-
licationa the best intellect of Great Britain contri-
butes, and no one can be fully posted iu regard to
the great social, ae scientific, and literary
questions of the day, unless he reads these works.
‘The cost of the orginal editions in thie country
would be over forty dollars, whilet the reprints
are furnished at ten dollars per year, No reading
is so cheap and at the same time so valuable as
this.—Cleveland Herald.
Whatever diversity of epiuion may be enter-
tained as to their distinctive merits, the iuforma-
tien conceatrated and the talent evolved in each
is such as to render their possession to the Ameri-
ean scholar and statesman an object of the first
importance,—Dr Nott.
We presume it is not generally known that L.
Scott & Co. have, fur a long time, been paying to
the British Publishers of the Reviews and Black-
wood a large sum annually out of their profits.
They do this not from compulsion but from policy

ing down their arms aud guns, und streaming tow-

Of course this disaster compelled the recall of
Gen. Sickles, who had been vigorously at work.
Gen. Williams’ division returned to find a portion
of hia works occupied by the enemy. Gen. Sickles |
could not communicate with the whole of his army |
by the rvute he came, and Gen. Heoker ordered a
wight attack to restore the communication. Gen.
Ward's brigade, aided by Betts’ battery, made an
attack at IL o'clock at night, which was entirely
successiul, and is a charge made by the brigade a
portion of the ardllery lost by Gen. Howard was
gallantly retaken by Gen. Hobart. The enemy was
driven te pearly a mile that night (Saturday )
Oar men slept on their arms. On Sunday, at five
o'clock in the morning, the rebels could be plainly
seen on the plank roud about a wiles from Gen.
Hooker's headquarters at Chancellor's House which
house had been penetrated by a shell. Our line of
battle was immediately formed, and in half an hour
our advance beeame cugaged. The enemy, advane-
ing his infantry in overwhelming force, seemed
determined to crash ours. Geus. Sickles and Slo-
camb’'s brave men, however, held them in cheek,
infliccing great slanghter upon them. French's
division was sent in our right and soon erushed that
pertion of the enemy's line, and at cight o'clock in
the morning French sent his compliments to Gen.
livoker, stating that he had charged the rebels and
was driving them before him.

“ Trish wit and humor ;” and basing his argument
upon the fact that wit and humor presuppose a
high culture and refinement, briefly drew the in-
ference that nations which excelled in this could
not be held obnoxions to the charge of igvorance.
‘The polished Athenian furnished a case in point;

The following in the certificate issued by the
American Ambassador in London, which has
excited so much indignation :
« Legation of the United States, London,
** April 3, 1863
“« Amid the multitude of fraudulent and dishonest
enterprises from this kingdom tw furnish supplies to
the revels in the United States, through the pre-
tence of a destinatioa to some purt in Mexico, it
gives me pleasure to distinguish one which has a
different purpose. Messrs. Howell and Zirman have
furnished me with evidence, which is perfectly
satisfactory to me, that they are really bound to
Matamoras with a cargo intended for the Mexicans.
I therefore very cheertully give them this certificate
at their request. It is not the dispusitior of the
Government of the United States te interfere in any
way with an honest neutral trade, and it is deeply
to be regretted that the frauds which have been
so extensively practised in thig country have con-
tributed so much to throw it under suspicion.
“ Cuances Faancis ADaMs.

The London Times remarks, ‘‘ the poor
folly of styling the Confederate ships pirates
has just been illustrated by a decision of the
Supreme Court of the United States that a
bond given by representatives of a captured
Federal vessel and cargo to a Confederate
officer for ransom, must be held valid in the
Federal Courts —a decision which harmonises
with a previous one in a case where the
question arose whether the officers and crew
of @ rebel privateer were subject to the
penalties of piracy. On that occasion the
Court laid down that there could be no dis-
tinction between the rebels on the sea and
the rebels on the land. If the latter were to
be treated as prisuners of war, so should the
former.

such occasions are these two famous remedics most
remarkable for their curative powers. The Oint-
ment cures externally the disfigurements arising
from scrotula, scurvy, ringworm, pimples, blotebed
and similar disorders. The Pills purify all the so-
lids and fluids composing the body. The Ointment
not only soothes and heals the surface, but passes
to the glands beneath, cleanses them, expels all im-
parities and rewoves all obstractions. Holloway's
renowned Ointment and Pills possess the very de-
sirable power of ejecting from the human frame the
seeds of the slightest or most virulent skin eruptions
and ulcerous distempers.
Purify, purify, paty the blood with Arernr's
SansapParitea, and the humors, derangements and
distempers which pervade the system at this season
will disappear. We have tried it, and speak with
knowledge.
