April 6. The New England Methodist Conference, in session at Charlestown, Mass., adopted a report supporting President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, expressing entire confidence in his administration, and pledging moral and material aid to him in his every effort to crush the rebellion. General R. B. Mitchell, with three hundred and fifty cavalry, went out from Nashville, on the Lebanon turnpike to Green Hill, Tenn. Dashing into a rebel camp where there was a large number of conscripts, on a sabre charge, he killed five and captured fifteen. He captured all their arms, horses, and equipment. The rebels were composed of parts of Morgan's and McCoun's men. Among the prisoners were Captain Bondy, of the Eighteenth Tennessee, and a lieutenant of Morgan's cavalry. A still-house, containing forty casks of liquors, was destroyed. One man was wounded. General Mitchell's command made the march of fifty-five miles in twelve hours.--National Intelligencer.

beat a retreat, leaving about thirty men in the hands of the assailants. The two Federal columns had scarcely returned to Murfreesborough when General Mitchell, who was then in command at Nashville, learned that a detachment of Morgan's cavalry had had the audacity to establish a recruitingdepot only a few miles from the capital of Tennessee, on the Lebanon road. He started on the morning of the 6th of April with three hundred and fifty mounted men, surprised the depot at the village of Green Hill, between the Hermitage and Silver Spring, and dispersed it, taking about fifteen prisoners. Van Dorn's attack upon Franklin, by drawing Rosecrans' attention to his right, had caused him to suspend the movement which was entirely to relieve his left. But as soon as he felt reassured regarding the fate of Granger he resumed his task, and was able to lead Stanley's cavalry back to Murfreesborough. On the 20th of April, General Reynolds left Murfreesborough with his whole division, one b

Arrest of a mail Robber. --We understand that the mail-carrier between Campbell Court-House, Marysville, and Green Hill, has been arrested and committed for the crime of robbing the mails. For some time letters containing money have been missing along this route, and many remittances from the soldiers to their friends in the county have never reached their destination. Suspicion rested upon the mail-carrier, whose name is Jackson, and Mr. John Sweeney, the efficient postmaster at Marysville, set a trap to catch him. A decoy letter, containing a five dollar bill and twenty- five cents in speele, carefully marked by him, was deposited in the Campbell Court House Post- Office, directed to himself at Marysville. The trick was successful; the letter did not come to hand, and when the carrier was arrested this identical money was found upon his person, together with letters for various other parties.-- Lynchburg Virginian, 28th.

e riot from his prison window. The rioters were composed of 3,000 women, who were armed. They broke open the Government and private stores, and took bread, clothing, and whatever else they wanted. The militia were ordered out to check the riot, but failed to go. Jeff. Davis and other high officials made speeches to the infuriated women, and told them they should have what they wanted, when they became calm. Dispatches from Nashville say that Gen. Mitchell, with 350 cavalry, went to Green Hill, and, dashing into a rebel camp, where there was a large number of conscripts, on the sabre charge, he took fifteen prisoners, killed five, and captured all their arms and equipments. Rosecrans's dispatches to the War Department, of Monday, state that General Stanly completely whipped the rebel guerillas of Morgan at Snow Hill, capturing about fifty prisoners and three hundred horses.

He said for me to get all the information I could of the movements, location and number of the army. Monday night I stayed at Mr. Bradford's, five miles the other side of Liberty; next night stayed at widow Buchan's, five miles beyond Lebanon; next stayed two miles this side of Green Hill; and the next day, (Thursday,) came to Nashville. While I was in the General's office at McMinnville, Colonel Clerk, commanding Duke's brigade, came in and asked the General if the troops could be paid off before going into Kentucky. Morgan said they could be paid. He asked the Colonel if he wanted any money. The Colonel said yes, that he wanted commutation for fifty days. In marching they do not issue rations. Heard Major Steel say that the command would be at Sparts in the morning.-
