An offlcial despatch was received by the Presi

with a large army: and he must come to encounter

is going on vigorously in Florida. The
Savannah News of the,.,23d says that Gen. Talin
ferro left that eity on the preceding evening, and
■will assnme command ed all the troops in Florida.
The same paper says that Col. Bobert H. An
derson, of the stE3rßsrgia cavalry, will command
the cavalry forces in Florida, and Col. George P.
Harrison, Jr., oflttVlKd Georgia, will command
a brigade, consisting of the 32d Georgia, 11th and
18th South Carolina, and 53th Virginia troops.
Of the news brought by possengers from Florida
the Sews says:— 11 In the battle near LakeTJity the
enemy were completely [defeated and routed. It
is reported that the . Sixty-fourth Georgia lost
severely in officers and inen, bnt no particufarsof the
casualties other than those reported have been re
ceived. The enemy, ho we vtr, were driven into their
intrenchments, leaving their dead and wounded on
the Held, Theehemj have advanced a considerable
forceof cavalry and infantry between Traders’
Hill and the Satilla river. The gunboats and seve
ral transports are in St. Mary’s river, near King’s
ferry, about eleven miles from Jeffersonton. A
small party of Yankee cavalry made their appear
ance near Centre Village, In Florida, a few days
since. The impression exists in that neighborhood
that thi3 is bnt a small raid to draw the attention
of our people from tlisir main body, which are en
camped on the St. Mary’s river, some thirty miles
from Lake City. Nothing of importance has oc
curred during the past lew days.
' * ‘The last reports from Florida give tho follow
ing as to 'he situation of the=opposing armies: The
pickets of both forces are within three miles ofeach
other. At last accounts the enemy was busily en
gaged in throwing np fortifications around their
camp atßarfcer’s, near the Sti Mary's river. Their
force is supposed to be not more than three thou
sand men, composed of'cavalry, Infantry and ar
tillery. They have about fifteen hundred negroes
is their service, who serve as infantry. ’ ’
.The Floridian, published at Tallahassee, says: > ‘lt
appears that the Yankees design establishing a '
fortified,camp at Baldwin, and it wonld further j
’seem that their design is,.if allowed, permanently
to occupy that portion of Florida.; |

S. COOPER, Adjutant and Inspector Gen.
(For the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
PROTECTIVE UNIONS EOS WOMEN.
It has been stated recently that a protective so
ciety (or Unionl, for the lemale industrial classes*
has been staxted under the auspices of some benev
olent ladies of New York. This is a movement in
the Tight direction* and if those it seeks to benefit
earnestly second the labors ol their friends, it must
be productive of great good. It has been urged,
with much truth (by the men who seek to exclude
women from the mecbahical and artistic pursuits
for which they are physically and mentally quali
fied), that they have invariably cut down the priees
of all binds of workthey have engaged In, b> their
willingness to do it at less than half the price that
men, who have given several years of time to ac
quire a business, could possibly afford to work tor.
In Photograph establishments, Telegraph office?,
and in other situations of a like kind, into which
they havdbbtained admittance, they have been the
means ot reducing salaries by their readiness to
give their services for whatever may ue offered.
This exhibits a want of jself-appreciation and self
respect painful to witness. There is no earthly
reason why women who can perform the business
they are engaged for as well as men, should not be
paid men’s wages. A woman’s necessary expenses
are just as great as those of a man, although she
does not spend so much tor liquor and tobacco.
She should he as w-ll fed, lodged, and clothed by
her earnings, and have as much to lay by Tor a
time when she can labor no longer. It is not
every woman’s destiny to get married (though, no
doubt, if. happily mated, this is her best and most
natural condition), and the possibility of a single
lifeiS'One she should be able to look in the face
without a spasm of horror at the thought of an
uncared-for and poverty-stricken old age. “The
afternocn 6* an unmarried woman’s life” must be
sa « had lonely (Miss Mnloch to the contrary, not
withstanding), and the writer—a woman and un
majTied’—conxessea honestly that she cannot regard
such a fate, when accompanied with poverty, with
composure, either for herself or sister woman. It
an old maid which forces so
many .girls into distasteful and loveless marriages:
it is, in. many instances, the knowledge that their
ende& vors, when in health and youth,
prociire them iood and; raiment from
11x41 illness or age creep on
on them, they mnst be destitute and uncared for
unless they are able to catch a husband *
-There* are - wrongs apart from insufficient
remuneration which weigh heavily upon women.
The fines imposed in i stores and manulactones for
absence and being behind time are altogether out
of: proportion to the; pay they receive. For in
stance, in some establishments 12 % cents is charged
for every five minutes that they are late. Women
who work for a living mostly live a great distance
from; their places ol employment, (board and rent
being, cheaper in the suburbs), and sometimes it is
impossible to beauheir posts at the exact moment
One hour ' (and m some casps a half hoar) is the
allowance ’ for dinner. And wben one is obliged
to walk a mile or two after that meal and return
within an boar, it is a very bard,'bard work.
In some stores women are not allowed to sit iown,
no matter how ill ori fatigued they may be, and if
forced by sickness to go home an boar or two
before the regular time for closing, a kalf or
qoarter of a day is invariably deducted from tbs
paltry stipend they receive. Some employers are
so mean as even to deduct from tbe salaries of tbs
girls Thanksgiving : Day, Fourth of July and
Christmas days, wben they themselves close their
w.^? us, ? e . 3 /-? nd when ateir hands could
not be employed if they wished. Even in case of.
death in the family ofthe girls, the necessary days
Of absence are carefully deducted. Thev art

AMUSEMENTS.
SiGaon Blitz This renowned magician and
ventriloquist has consented to keep his Temple of
Wonders, corner of Tenth and Chestnut streets,
open for another week. The lovers of fun and the
admirers of first class'legtrdsmain, will picass
take notice and bear in mind that the Signorp»r
furm**nightly and upon ths alternoone of Wed
nesday and Saturday.
Tub Ancn.—A splendid house attended the
production of Cbaa. Gaylor’s “Magic Marriage”
at the Arch last evening. Mrs. John Drew was
warmly received, and played the character of the
Marchioness de Volterra with gieat spirit; her
changes from youth to age were admirably made.
Mr. Hill as Chevalier Monte Cellini also made an
excellent impression and was heartily appland*d
by the audience. Miss J. Henry as Ztllah, the
gipsy, looked beantifa), and acted charmingly;
while Mr. Griffiths, as Signer Malfiedi, displayed
his usual ability. The I lotof the play U well ar
ranged, the incidents are worksd up with all of
Mr. Gaylor's appreciation of stage effect, and we
consider the piece a most emphatic success. The
afterpiece was that admirable comedy, “Simpson
iCe.,” tbe characters being taken br Mrs. Drew,
Miss Freeman, Miss Price, Mrs. Marlowe, aqd
Messrs. Griffiths, Hill and Rogers. This evening
“The Magic Mai rings ’ will be repeated, with
“Tbe Follies of a Night.” There will be a splen
did house.
‘Tub Walsct.— Miss Ettie Henderson made a
most lavorable impression on the large audience
which attended the Walnut last evening. Her
Fanchon was an exquisite impersonation and de
rived much of its effect from her graceful demea
norand pretty eyes. "The Shadow Dance” was
meat felicitoeeljr given and was heartily ap
plauded, as isdeed Miss H. was tbrongkout the
entire play. To-night “Fmicboo, the Cricket,”
will be repeated, together with the amusing farce
of «-Sarah's YonngMan. ’'
The Chiststt.—“The Colleen Hawn" will
be repealed to-night at the Ghestnnt.
