From Our Own Correspondent. NEW-ORLEANS, Friday, April 15, 1864. DESPARATE BATTLE IN WEST LOUISIANA. The whole City has, for the last day or two, been in the utmost condition of excitement over the news of the bloodiest fighting that perhaps ever yet occurred on the soil of Louisiana. Amid the many conflicting rumors now current here -- for or against us, just as they may emanate from friends or foes -- it is extremely difficult to get at the real particulars; but from what I have gleaned of the many eye-witnesses with whom I have come in contact here, the...

Prosecutors in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office offered new transparency not only to the public, but seemingly also Trump’s defense attorneys on Tuesday when, one year after indicting the former president, they finally pulled back the curtain to reveal the motivating crime in their case: a violation of state election law. Former federal prosecutors told the Daily Caller News Foundation Bragg’s lack of clarity is unfair to the defense, who can’t prepare to argue against a charge they don’t know, and unlike what they’ve seen before. ... “First, that Alvin Bragg’s office did not provide advanced notice of the...

Facing dire polling numbers and a lack of left-wing enthusiasm for his “re-election” campaign, Joe Biden is considering taking an extreme measure that should send chills down the spines of any American who values liberty. During an April 19 broadcast of the Fox Business Show The Bottom Line with Dagen and Duffy, co-host Sean Duffy revealed that the Biden White House told Fox Business that it is considering defying the Constitution and declaring a climate emergency. He then turned to his guest Marc Morano, a former Republican political aide who runs a climate change skeptic website called ClimateDepot.com, and asked...

From our Special Correspondent. NEWBERN, N.C., Wednesday, April 20, 1864. Advices just received from Plymouth warrant the conclusion that it has fallen into the hands of the enemy. It was attacked by a heavy land force on Sunday evening, (the 17th,) in connection with an iron-clad ram which came down the Roanoke River. In the engagement, the ram sunk the Southfield, (gunboat.) and a small vessel which has frequently been on expeditions up the Roanoke, called the Bombshell. It also partially disabled the gunboat Miami. The ram getting below Plymouth, it is thought impossible for reinforcements to reach the place....

WASHINGTON, Friday, April 22. The following information was received here to-day concerning the recent disaster at Plymouth, N.C.: A rebel ram came down the river about three o'clock on Monday morning. She floated down with the current and was not discovered until close under the bows of the Miami. Lieut. Commander FLUSSER rushed forward, sighted and fired the bow gun, loaded with shell, which struck the ram, rebounded and instantly killed him, a piece of the shell penetrating his breast. The ram then attacked the Southfield, and she sunk in five minutes. The Miami was somewhat injured. The ram passed...

Gen. GRANT left here for the front to-day, and Gen. BURNSIDE went by special boat to Fortress Monroe. It is understood that the recent development of the intentions of the rebels renders an early movement of the Army of the Potomac highly probable. Such an event will be in accordance with the expressed desires of Mr. LINCOLN and other leading men here. Without going into details, it is enough to say that the Spring has not keen idled away, and that preparations for the impending campaign have been equal to the importance of the work to be accomplished. There is...

The insiders, the elites, the establishment, whatever you want to call them, are hoping our Soviet-styled Department of Justice (“show me the man, and I’ll show you the crime”) will keep rolling forward and steam-roll Donald Trump. Although the Trump base is solidly with him and has stopped listening to anything the legacy press tries to manipulate us to believe, the Department of Justice has the power to incarcerate Trump if that is the will of the court. What then? The elephant in the room is precisely what the talking heads won’t say. We have a constitutional crisis right now....

CHICAGO, Tuesday, April 19. After advancing about five miles from where the Third Division of the command and the Nineteenth Corps were encamped, the rebels made a stand, and our line, consisting of only 2,400 infantry, formed in a belt or woods with an open field in front, and the enemy in the woods on the other side. Gen. STONE, of Ball's Bluff fame, chief of Gen. BANKS' staff, was on the field, and took direction of the movements. Gen. RANSOM was in favor of advancing only in force, but his wish was disregarded. After a skirmish across the open...

WASHINGTON, Monday, April 18. It is reported that Maj.-Gen. Q.A. GILLMORE Will be immediately recalled from duty in front of Charleston, and ordered on service elsewhere. It is not unlikely, notwithstanding this change, that our iron-clads will be alongside Charleston wharf before the incoming Summer has gone out. Gen. HATCH is mentioned as the successor of Gen. GILLMORE in the Department of the South. The Committee on the Conduct of the War, after consultation with the President and Secretary of War, to-day determined to send a sub-committee, composed of Senator WADE and Representative GOOCH, to Fort Pillow to inquire into...

WASHINGTON, Sunday, April 17. The reports in a New-York Sunday paper of the perilous condition of the President's health, are fortunately without foundation at this writing. Mr. LINCOLN and Speaker COLFAX will probably visit Baltimore to-morrow evening, by invitation, to assist at the opening of the Maryland Sanitary Fair. THE SENATE GOLD BILL IN THE HOUSE. A strenuous effort will be made by the friends of Mr. CHASE to pass the Senate Gold Bill in the House early next week. It will be bitterly opposed by both Democrats and Republicans, but there are not enough of either to defeat it....

WASHINGTON, D.C., Saturday, April 16. Yesterday afternoon, about 5 o'clock, dispatches were received here from Gen. SHERMAN, confirming the surrender of Fort Pillow, and the brutal conduct of the rebels immediately afterward, which bids fair to be amply retaliated in that quarter in due time. The Star says: "According to Gen. SHERMAN, our loss was fifty-three white troops killed, and one hundred wounded, and three hundred black troops murdered in cold blood after the surrender. Fort Pillow is an isolated post, of no value whatever to the defence of Columbus, and utterly untenable by the rebels, who have no doubt...

FROM CAIRO. CAIRO, Thursday, April 14. On Tuesday morning the rebel Gen. FORREST attacked Fort Pillow.

Afterward a second flag came in, which was also refused. Both flags gave the rebels advantage of gaining new positions. The battle was kept up...

PARIS, Tuesday, March 29, 1864. One of the vessels built at Bordeaux by M. ARMAN Deputy in the Corps Legislatif, for the Confederate Government, was launched on Thursday last, and shows herself on the water to be a most beautiful specimen of naval architecture. An English vessel is lying in the same port with all the necessary equipments on board for the new vessel, the articles having been put on board the English vessel at Havre. The new vessel will not be ready to sail yet for some weeks, and she is audaciously announced in advertisements as being "up" for...
