FURTHER SOUTHERN NEWS.
FOKTRtss Mokroe, Feb. 23.—The Wilmington
Daily Confederate says; ‘‘On the 9th inst. 1.025
hales ot cutton were burned in Wilmington. The
loss was S7OO J tOU. , C’ .. *
The Home (Ga ) Courier says: «‘On the Bth inst.
the enemy, six hundred strong, were at Porters-
Tille, within forty-ioor mPes of Home. Another
force was advancing via Weaver’s Mills.”
The Savannah Republican, ofFebroary 14, says:
«‘The fight at Lake city, Florida, was with the
enemy’s advance, composed entirely of cavalry.
We lost all our guns in the Camp sur
prise, which seems to have been a disgraceful af
fair on the partof our officers.
6o thoroughly were they surrounded that re
sistance was impossible, and but few of our men
escaped.
Col. McCormick,
who was in command, was
juv ong the captured.
The Eichmond Sentinel, of February 20th, says:
J. S.‘Bruch, ‘William. Haddock. O. Hoffman,
Stephen Jones, A. J. Brittan, J. J. Summerline,
W. H. Doughty, Lewie Taylor, Lewis Freeman,
"W. D. Jones, Joseph 1 Brooks and C. R Gathrall,
were all hanged at ELiaston, N. 0., on the 16th
instant, and seven were hung on the 13th, all for
deserting to the enemy and hiking up arms on the
enemy’s side.
They all received the ordinance ol baptism,
according to their own dictates.
The mercury stood at eight degrees above zero,
in Richmond; on the morning ot the 19th instant.
From Mississippi we hear up to the 19th instant.
Fairagnt was in command of the fleet at Grant’s
Pass, and was as quiet as the rough sea would
allow. Sherman has called a halt and has become
mysterious. Perhaps he is flanking General
John&on instead of moving on Mobile.
APBALD OP GREENBACKS CHARLESTON
PAST CRUMBLING, &c.
XfreWBEBS, N C., Feb.v 20.—The Charleston
Mtrcury says that “Secretary Chase is making
every exertions to flood the South ■with greenbacks
'Which, unless immediately checked, will subvert
our currency, and thus inflict a mortal blow on
the success of the cause.
The same paper says that “the constant drop
ping of the enemy’sshot aud shell is telling upon
the lower part of the city. * *
The Wilmington (N. C.) Journal announces the
arrival of the steamer Alice, from Nassau, on
the 3d; also, that the steamer Spunkie is aground
tinder the gun& of Fort Campbell, and likely to
go to pieces, though most of her cargo will be
saved.
Xae wewnera A T cui* «tyn r . ‘ «The late rebel raid
has strengthened the Union feeling. We cannot
for a moment doubt that should a strong Federal
force move on Raleigh and nnfnrl the old starred
banner from the capital, it would be hailed with
ahonts of intense joy by the tens of thousands.”
A rumor says that General Pickett will be court
martialed for not capturing I^ewbern.
Colonel Dutton, el the 21st Connecticut, has
been announced as the Chief of Staff by Gen Peck.
Large numbers are enlisting in the 2d Union North
Carolina Regiment
. W-abhixgtox, Feb. 24.—Southern advices just
to band report that Polk* s forces did not all fall
back, but that bis cavalry force, which numbers
About seven thousand, hung upon both flanks of
Sherman’s forces, And captured a considerable
numbers of liie men, who became exhausted by
the rapid march and fell from the ranks. This
cavalry is regarded as the most dashing and skill*
fnl in the South, and was the means of forcing
Hnrlbntfrom the position he occupied on the Mem*
phis and Charleston road a few weeks since. It is
commanded by Major-GeEeral Lee, and it is not
improbable, should Sherman meet with unexpected
obstacles after leaving Quitman, but this rebel
cavalry force may overtake him and harass him
severelv in his operations.
A New York paper of yesterday surmised that '
Gen. Banks would send no troops to assist in the
capture of Mobile until “after the election”
Which was to come off on Monday last; but this
impression, I am sati>fied, is erroneous, os several
ibonsand troops certainly left New Orleans in
transports during the week ending 13th, and their
destination was generally understood to he Pasca
gonla The preparations tor this joint move
ment on the part of Sherman and Banks
were commenced as long ago. as the lat
ter part oi December, when General McPherson,
who commands in General Sherman’s Depart
ment, paid a visit to Banks and remained withhim
for several weeks. ~
The confederates in New Orleans ascertained at
once what.was on foot , and reinforcements were
ha Mobile witbin ten days after the arrival of
McPherson at New Orleans! If Sherman is there-
I° r <LilyiDg on in such hot haste in the hope of pre-
2 e j 5^ tbe re^els from reinforcing Mobile, he will
find that his movement has been fully anticipated.
?** arn these facts from a New. Orleans
* e * r V thfty cau reii ' d u P°h.
" I have before told you, there is no truth in
the report awhile ago current that Pemberton was
hi command at Mobile. The commander of the
land forces in that city is General Maury, the
commander of the'lleet is Admiral Buchanan.
We may look for a big fight when the city is at
tacked, as the rebels are determined to defend it to
the last.
