CITY BULLETIN.
A Handsome the site
of the old Pelletier House, on "Walnut-street,,

business community in which it is established.
The building is four stories in height,'rivith the
first story of fine Pictou stone, and § the re
mainder of the "front of pressed brick. The
main room on the first floor is 41 by 90 feet,
with ceilings and side wails frescoed in elegant
style. The dining- hails, billiard. rooms, &e.,
are upon the most extensive pattern, and pro
vided With every necessary convenience.
Messrs. Green & Kelly,for whom the structure
was erected will occupy it. The building is
an" ornament to the neighborhood. ;
Assault upon an Officer.— Charles Osborn
was arrested last evening in the Fifteenth Ward
upon the charge, of having been concerned in a
stone fight at ' Sixteenth and, Mt. Vernon
streets. The particulars of the affair were
published in the Bulletin of-Monday. It will
he remembered that officer Bennett was struck
upon the head with- a stone and was so seri
ously injured that he has not" been on duty
since. Osborn acknowledges having thrown a
stone. He was taken before Aid. Hutchinson
and was held in $l5OO bail to answer.

may eeem extraordinary! hut it is more than
matched by the fact that each day there, are circu

THE DEPARTMENT OF THE SOUTH.
[Correspondence of the N.-Y. Herald. I
Hilton Head, S. 0., Jan. 31, ISOI The situa
tion has not materially changed since my lastcom
municatton. The enemy Temain quiescent, so far
as offensive operations are concerned. They have
fired very few shots, within the past two or three
weeks, although we have steadily maintained a
fire on the city. Even when our shells are thrown
into Beauregard, Moultrie, Simpkins or any of
their batteries, they do riot deign to notice oar
movements, but .preserve a silence that suggests
newplans. They have for the most part been ex'-
ceedingly lavish in their expenditure of ammuni
tion, but with meagre results. On Thursday last,
however, there was a change in the programme.
At daylight our lookont-at Cummings’s Point ob
served the rebels pn the southwest angle of Fort
Sumter busily at work, piling np the debris on the
shattered parapet, in the form of a battery. Onr
guns were immediately opened upon them, and
Fort Sumter again bombarded.
The rebels for some time continued to labor, in
spite of bursting shells. But finally several shells
having exploded in rapid succession intnatpart
of the fort, knocking down the debris thev had
piled np, . they disappeared, and relinquished
their design. Onr guns continued to fire at inter
vals during the day and following night, and
leveled off the new parapet even with the crest of
debris. Our fire doubtless occasioned some casu
alties, as the following day two or three corpses
floated ashore at Battery Gregg, probably from
Fort Sumter.
From information derived from a variety of
Eonrces we learn that onr fire npon Charleston is
doing considerable damage both lo persons and
buildings Shell drop in and explode at intervals
of five minutes, day and night, in that portion ol
the city to which me residents about the Battery
removed when we first opened on the town. The
place of refuge has ceased to be regarded as per
fectly sate. people who moved their worldly
effects from down town to the upper wards, and
fondly imagined that tlicy were secure trom all
visitations from Yankee shells, have long since
had that illusion rndeiy dispelled. Houses in a
certain area are terribly shattered asd perforated
by our shells and rendered untenable. So another
hegira occurred, and people now live in tents, slab
shanties, bams, stables, cotton houses, clear in
-me outskirts!of the city, and are by no means as
comfortable as they could desire.
■Within the past ten days a large number of
deserters and refugees haveen’ered our lines from
Georgia and Florida. One boatload ot soldiers
from the Savannah Grays came in three or lour
days ago. ' They were eight in number, and very
comfortably clothed. Their story differs in no
particular from that told us by every oae who has
come within our lines during the past six months
[Correspondence of the N. Y. Times.]
Hilton Head, S.'C., Sunday, Jan. 31, lstij.—
The medical department of any army is admitted
by every one to be one oT the most important
requisites of the service. Medical Director Swift
entered npon the duties of his office about six
weeks ago, and, although he has had some
obstacles to contend against which would not have
existed, perhaps, in the absence of a change of
Directors, no one can dispute that he has proved
himself equal to the emergency, and is in a f.-ir
way of placing his particular department on a
footing that it had not begun to reach Irom the
time the first expedition landed at Fort Roy >1
The General Hospital at Hilton Head is altogetr er
too small for the demands made upon it- It is the
-intention of Dr. Swift, I understand, to have con
structed a general hospital in some favorable place
as soon as Government can be prevailed on to fur
nish the requisite material. It mav further be
stated, to the delight of the soldiers'"friends and
relatives at home, that in the course of a few weeks
J3t> acres of. soil will be covered with growing
vegetables for the use of the hospitals. Beside
that, each hospital, where the design can be prac
tically executed, is to have its garden-plot, which
no one will hesitate to pronounce a very attractive
and ter. elicial feature. Dr. Swift has also in view
the project of building a bake-house and erecting
an ale brewery.
[Correspondence of the N. Y. Tribune.]
Headquarters Detartmext of the South,
Hilton Head, S. C. Jan. t!0. General Order j, -Vo.
Ilk— It. is with regret that the Major-General Com
manding has observed in. the evidence adduced be
fore Courts-Martial charged with the trial of
colored soldiers, indications, more or less con
spicuous, of improper demeanor of officers toward
the men under their command. The offence seems
to tnclnde unofficer-like familiarity on the one
hand, and extreme harshness on the other. Either
course must result notpnly in insubordination, but
in consequences ’of - the most serious nature,
whether the soldier be white qr black. From their
former dependent condition, and the consequent
humility that generally characterizes their deport
ment, theiels no doubt that the latter are easily
controlled, and, except in comparatively rare in
stances, are riot likely,to violate that discipline to
which they have through life been so rigidly sub
jected. if treated with even-handed justice, rind a ■
strict and conscientious attention to their wants
and comfort.
An officerlwho is unduly familiar either in speech
or association, or who abuses by word or actipnX
the power and authority conferred upon him, riot
only strikes at the root of discipline himself, hut
encourages ilin others.
The General commanding desires it to be dis
tinctly understood that in every case hereafter that
may be brought to his notice of snch conduct, a
prompt and efficient remedy will be applied
This order will be read to the troops of the dif
ferent commands within this department on the
day alter its receipt.

THE LATE AFFAIR IN WESTERN VIRGINIA
, We learn from passengers who arrived last even,
mg from New-Creek, some additional particulars
in regard to the capture of the train between ’New
Cheek and Petersburg. On Saturday afternoon
about twenty-seven miles from New Creek, at the
junction of the Moorefleld and Petertewg roads a
supply train, consisting of nlnety-two six-mulo
tri]s-l>AlLir jiViftlforC*' JSUJjj 1 : "F-EisEdAitjjf 4." itse4
earns w op atincked by tlie reools. and tlio whole
train was captured. The 23<i Illinois' Regiment
had come down to the-junction of th« roads for the
purpose of guarding the train into Petersburg, ami
soon after their hrrivai w<re attacked by the rebels
with artillery and beaten back in coafusion.j The
regiment is said to- be pretty badly cut up.j The
train was accompanied by'SUU or tiuo men, most of
whom were completely’panic-stricken. The train
was regarded as a most valuable one.. Most of the
men succeeded in making their escape, but the
mules and horses, about4()Uin number,the wagons
and contente, were captured.
Ma.,or Toddridge and his assistant, Mr Cline,
occupied an ambulance in tbe-nnr of the train.
|They were going to Petersburg'to pay off the
troops, and had a considerable snm of money with
them. As the rebels commenced shelling the rear
of the train, Mr. Cline, with the assistance of
others, cut a horse loose from the ambnlance and
smarted a inan back to New Creek with the money.
Major Doddridge and Mr. Cline reached the city
last evening. Demoralized soldiers were con
stantly reporting themselves at New Creek.
The rebels who attacked the train came down the
Moorefield roard, and are supposed to have been
lyinginwaitfortbetramforseveraldays. At last
accounts, Co) Thoburn had succeeded in escaping
with the Petersburg garrison, and had parsed
safely through Greenland Gap, wnich rendered
him quite Sfite.-r-Whecling Feb. 2.
Destructive Fire in Pittsburgh.— A fire
broke out on First street, last night, by which
the extensive machine shops of Mr. J. Jenks
were burned down and a large amount of val
uable machinery and property destroyed. The
fire was at first discovered in the second story,
and spread with such extraordinary rapidity
that in ten minutes from the time the
alarm was given the entire building was en
veloped in flames. By the most extraordinary
exertions on the part of our firemen the fire was
confined to. the building in which it originated,
but this, together with the greater part of its
contents, including a large and valuable collec
tion of patterns, was alrpost wholly destroyed.
The foundry, a large frame structure adjoining
the shops, escaped, and three or four dwellings
in close vicinity to the burning building,though
at one time in imminent danger, were also
saved from destruction. The burned building
was owned by Mr. John B. "Warden, and is par
tially insured. Mr. Jenks’s loss is very heavy,
and, so far as we can learn, he was not insured.
The fire was the result of accident.— Pittsburgh,
Chroniclcy 3 d.
A Stbeet of CnußCHEs.—The
the Third Presbyterian Church, whose house
of worship, corner of Third and Ferry streets,
was destroyed some three months ago by fire,
have purchased the large lot of ground, belong
ing to Anderson’s heirs, situated off the south
east corner of Sixth street and Cherry Alley.
Sixth street, it appears, is the favorite loca
tion for churches. Already there are five
churches situated within its three squares—
Trinity, Cnmbexland Presbyterian, United
German, Second United Presbyterian and
Second German Lutheran. The Third Presby
terian church will give us six churches within
the-limits of a short street of less than five
hundred yards in length—and all within the
Third Ward. —Pittsburgh Commercial.
The Distinction of Color The Tribune’s
Washington correspondent writes: A co
lored Major in the United States service
summoned as a witness before the Court-
Martial, of which Col. Willets is Presi
dent, arriving an hour after his time, of
fered as an excuse a" fti-itten statement, to wit,
that dressed in full uniform he entered a car of
the Washington and Georgetown Horse Rail
road at the other end of the city to proceed to
the Court, and was expelled therefrom, and
compelled to walk, which delayed his arrival.
The President, Col. Willetts, promptly en
dorsed the statement as an outrage upon the
officer and an insult to the Court, and referred
the same to Gen. Martindale, who will iaves
tigate the matter.

It cleanses. and renovates the blood, the
vigor of health into thesystem, andjiurges out the
humors which make disease. It stimulates the
healthy functions of the body and expels the dis
orders that grow and rankle in the blood. Such a
~ remedy, that could be relied on, mm long been
sousrhtfor. and now, for the first time, the pubiie
have one on which they can depend. Our space
here does not admit certificates to show its effect,
but the trial of a single bottle will shew to the siclc
that it has virtues surpassing anything they havv
ever taken. H i
Two tSblespoonsful of the Extract of Sarsaparil
la added to a pint of.water, is equal to the Libson
Diet Drink, and one bottle is fully equal to a gal
lon of the Syrup of Sarsaparilla, or the Decoction
