Th« Wilmington Journal , In its recent declara

federacy nnless this achievement should be real
ised, gave utterance,, says the jßaleigh Standard,
to the condition on which Governor Vance would
pledge the further co-operation of this State with
ths Confederacy. The presence of aiuulditional
number of formidable gunboats, and 4 small in
crease to our present force, which Gen. Peck is,
anxious to • obtain, will the enemy s efforts
fruitless, and turn the existing conditional co
operation mentioned in our favor. The com
mander at Plymouth has sent.word to Gen. Peck
that bee?" ' " against any force tb§
~:a iiwu «.*«* -
eiiemy can send against it. • - - . • .
Washington bids fair to be the theatre of a deep fi
xate contest soon Acting Bi igadier-General Mo-
Chesney is in command there. The recent expe
dition which left Plymouth under the command of
Xiieutenant-Colonel Maxwell, and destroyed such
a large amount of rebel commissary stores struck
a severe blow to. the enemy in that section, frus
trated their operations, and secured for Col. Max
well the thanks of the Commanding General.
Washington’s birth-day was celebrated here by
the military and fire department, and the most im
posing demonstration ever witnessed in this city.
Intelligence has just been received that the enemy
have hung fifty-one soldiers captured by them in
their recent attack upon Newbern, all of whom
belonged to the 2d North Carolina Union-Kegi
ment of white volunteers. The report creates a
great deal of excitement, and if the news is con
firmed the affair may result in the hanging of fifty
one rebels by Gen Bntler. Witnesses have ar
rived who saw three of these brave men shot by the
enemy soon after their arms were taken from them.
GENERAL SHEEHAN’S EXPEDITION.
Canto. Feb. 26.—The steamer Superior, from -
Evansville, has arrived with one hundred and
sixty-eight hales of cotton, a quantity of sugar, and
Memphis dates of the 24th. Gen. Davidson, from
Bittle Bock, is among the passengers, and will
wait here for orders. The Memphis Bulletin has
information from high military authority at Vicks
burg confirming the report that Gen. Sherman had
occupied Selma., Ala,, which place, it says, was
gamed by seveie fighting. No particulars are re
ceived. The Bulletin asserts that it is understood
that the next point of attach will he Montgomery,
the capital of Alabama.
The steamer Clyde, engaged in the cotton trade,
was seizi don the 13th, at Skip wich’s Handing, by
the gunboat Houisyille, for alleged violation of
trade regulations. Her commander, Captain R.
Cook, is charged with having agreed to convey a
rebel battery across the river for 85 00.
The ocean steamships Belvidere and Northerner
arrived at Memphis on the 24th. When a hundred
miles below, the commander of the Belvidere ob
served the steamer Pike holding communication
with the shore, contrary to military order. The
Belvidere fired open the shore, and the first volley
started up about two hnndred guerillas, who fled
an consternation. The Pike was ordered to report
at Memphis.

tion of all Sta*e hanks to such an extent as to com
pel them to call in their issues, that the country
may have no hing but a national legal tender cur
rency. They say that the State banks issues have
already depreciated, and are liable to further de-
predation. : -
THE LOSS OF THE BOHEMIAN.
Poetland, Feb. 26.— The testimony before the
Coroner’s jury, in the case of the disaster to the
Bohemian, snows no carelessness or want of skill
on the part of the officers of the ship. The pilot on
the Boston steamer which passed the Bohemian
before she struck, testifies to seeing her signal for
a pilot, and that the fog made the lights look much
furthex off than they really were. Capt Borland
tfisUlies that he had two lookouts in the forecastle
and aloft. The ship was going very slow. He
55* tll \ B P° Tt for mine winters and
never found himself in that locality before. He
thinks the current may have set him to the west
ward.
The ship struck near her middle and went right
over the rock. Shortly atierwaTds the engineer
reported that she was making water very fast, and
fnli steam was put on, and the ship headed for
shore, intending to beach her. She run about ten
minutes, when her fires were drowned out. Or
ders were given to get the boats ready as soon as
she struck. : The officers were; all at tneir stations
attending to their 'duties, but all the passengers
.rushed on deck, making great confusion.
Boat No. 2 was swamped by the fall, or by a
©in breaking in lowering, which let one end do wn,
throwing the passengers who had filled it into the
r a t ter ‘rrv. Fome °- f *5? bolts -were Ailed and others
mot. The men m the boats not filled refused to
pull alongside, thus leaving the captain and boat
swain, -hree of the crew and seventy or eighty Das
sengeis on board. 3 v
A dense fog came on, and the ship settling very
fast, the only alternative was to get the passengers
into the rigging. He succeeded in getting fifty
women and children into the foretop, the water
then being over the forecastle-head. The boats
came back in three hours, and took all off. The
women and children were lowered into the boats
from the rigging, and all these got safe to land. A
few ’or*the passengers were washed off the fore
castle when the ship filled, and after seeing the
passengers housed and cared for, Captain Borland
returned to the ship. •
„ tjaptain Stone, of Kennebec; testified that he was
fSM E n E 7 oa Aoard and made no remarks to
Bun. i2 and aboot the ship being in danger.

25, fell in with Br bark Stadacona, from St John,
NB. for Southampton, with rttdder damaged, and in
a sinking condition; took from her Captain Moore,
officers and crew, 14 in all; it being squally at the
time and a heavy sea ion, it was with i much diffi
culty the boat was picked up; the cre\y of the bark
were worn out with constant pumping, and it was
necessary to haul them over the side on board with
ropes. Capt Moore reported having had very heavy
weather for the ten days previous to leaving hia
vessel, she making so much water that he could not
run her. Jan 22, exchanged signals with Bhip Ma
cedonia, with loss of topgallantmast and maintop
mast. Feb 20,spoke brig George F, from St Thomas
for Digby, NS. who took the crew of the stadacona
on board, leaving Capt Moore, mate and carpenter
on board the Stamler, where they have been 34 days,
and,the passengers’ provisions having become short
from the extra number on board,had been on rather
short allowances, when, on speaking schr Native,
of Newburyport, her captain very kindly supplied
them with what he could spare—three bam 1b of
bread-and a half barrel of beef—and when he heard
the women were hungry he sent his own supper,
which waß ready for the table.
