r ,TT,n wS-ch 6th.—Private letters have been
at Memphis, dated at Vicksburg on
Sf azfh nltT which state that the 17th
JLnnv Corps, under McPherson, have returned
foJackson, and are expected to remain there
for the present. . , . ,
Sherman, with the remainder of his army, is
wav for the some place. Ail the raii-
on route have been utterly
d£BtrOye BHEE»AN NOT AT JACKSON.
St Louis, March 6.— The Washington Cor
respondent of the New York Commercial M
pt fitter makes a statement that Sherman was at
Vicksburg on the 24th, and that he would now
start another expedition. This is a great mis
take. None of Gherman’s forces had reached
Jackson on the 24th. Vicksburg advices to
<be 27th make no mention of his arrival there,
#r any contemplated new movements. Hc
‘ pheraon’s cerps, which reached Jackson after
the 24th probably, will remain there for some
time, but another expedition is not likely to be
made very soon. Parties from General Grant’s
front say that there is no probability of fighting
- there for some time. •
FROM. NORTH CAROLINA.
New York, March 6.—The steamer Ellen S.
Terry arrived here this evening from.Newbern.
AN ewbern letter, of the Ist inst., states that
Jeff. Davis has suppressed the Raleigh Stand
ard, , thus increasing the surety of its editor’s
election as Gbyemor next fall.
The rebels are removing the obstructions in
the Neuse river below Kinston, in order to al
low an iron-plated ram to come down, to assist
in the anticipated attack on Washington, New
tem and Plymouth, for which the rebels are
making great preparations. A ram is also said
to he ready on Roanoke river, as well os one on
the Tar river. .
The Raleigh Confederate states that the recent
attack on Newbem was only a diversion, soon
to be followed np by a heavier demonstration.
Gen. Wessels is dangerously ill at Plymouth.
The Confederate also urges the necessity of
changing the battle ground from Virginia to
North Carolina.
Official intelligence confirms the report that
•Jeff. Davis has ordered the immediate seizure
of all points now held by the Federals in North
Carolina. General Peck has made all prepa
rations in his power, and all citizens and fire
men.are under orders to go into the fortifica
tions.
The hanging by the rebels of 23 men of the
3d North Carolina white regiment has exasper
ated the loyal North Carolina troops beyond all
bounds, and they have resolved to take no more
prisoners. .
REPORTED MOVEMENT OF LONGSTREET.
Knoxville, March s.—Our scouts report
that Longstreet has shipped his wagons by
trains to Richmond, and is mounting his men
on the horses and mules thns released, and is
, pressing all the animals that can be found.
The rebel cavalry are still scouring the coun
try to the east of us. Martin’s cavalry ap
peared yesterday on the French Broad river,
sear the meeting of the Big Pigeon.
Some apprehension is felt of a raid by Mor
gan on our communications with Chattanooga.
REBEL DEPREDATIONS ON THE CHESA
PEAKE.
Baltuioee, March' 6.—Various extravagant
rumors have been circulating here to-day
about rebel depredations on the Chesapeake.
It appears on last Saturday a party of armed
rebels came out in boats, before daylight, and
captured two Government steamers at Cherry
stone creek, named the lola and Titan. They
burned the former,Vand her officers and crew
were placed on parole; the other was taken off
sp the Rappahannock with all on board. Capt.
Webster, of the lola, was robbed of eleven
hundred dollars, and glad to get off on giving
bond. Captain Fitzhugh commanded "the
rebels, who approached the Government
steamers in small boats. *
FROM WASHINGTON.
Washington, March 6 The subject of
ocean steam lines is attracting attention.’ The
memorial of the Brazil Company is already be
fore Congress, with many friends to support it.
Some of the leading merchants of New York
and New England have recently organized as
a Mediterranean Company, with the design of
establishing a line of steamers to Southern
Europe. A Boston line of steamers to. Eng
land is contemplated, and another to the Gulf
of Mexico is organizing in New York, while
in the latter city the long mooted project of a
Pacific line from California to China is again
receiving attention- in influential quarters.
These interests are, it is believed, all represent
ed in this-city. It is urged, that by the aid of
reasonable compensation from Government for
mail carriage, the ocean may be traversed with
swift armed commercial steamers, the presence
of which would render hazardous the career oi
rebel cruisers.
It is understood that the House Committee
on Naval Affairs. has under consideration the
establishment of navy-yards for the construc
tion of monitors and other subjects in that con
nection. " The labors of that committee are
more than ordinarily onerous. They not only
have, meetings during the day, but often in the
evening.
Brigadier-General Albion P. Howe, lately
commanding a division in the Sixth Army Corps
has been transferred to the post of Chief of
Artillery in the Department of Washington
Tice Brigadier-General Barry, ordered to Gene
ral Grant’s department. General Howe has
been in-the field uninterruptedly from the be
ginning of the war, and is regarded as a most
efficient aad accomplished officer.
The President has pardoned Cincinnatus W.
Newton, of Norfolk, Va., and gives him back
his property which was confiscated. He is a
brother of General Newton, and was one of the
Electoral College wlpch voted for Jeff. Davis,
President of the bogus Confederacy.
The visit of Major-General Meade to Wash
ington is reported to he in connection with the
re-organization of the several army corps
under his command.
General Meade returned to the Army to-day,
and resumed his command.

*ll the flour and saw mills in' the vicinitl
including Boyer’s flour mills and
nulls of Stanard and Nerson. They destroyed
a number, of freight and other boatsin the
catia', and did considerable damage to the iron
works at Mannakin. , v -
•The only damage done to the. canal, besides
the destruction of the boats, was the cutting of
the lock at Simpson. General Henry A. Wise,
was at the time ona visit, to his son-in-law,
whose farm adjoins that of Sedden, but fortu
nately became apprised of their approach in
time to make.his escape. He arrived in the
city yesterday..
The other detachment that came to Ashland,
was accompanied by a battery of artillery, and
approached on the Brooke turnpike, about six
miles northwest of the. city. Yesterday mor
' ping they were promptly met and kept in check,
and, ’finally, handsomely repulsed by a portion
of English troops under Capt, IVYII. Stephens,
who manned a few sections of light artillery.
A duel ensued 3 and shots were exchanged for
about two hours. The enemy then withdrew
in the direction of Mechanicsville, burning the
trestle-work of .the Central Railroad across the
Chickahominy in their retreat. Our loss in the
fight oh the Brooke road was one killed and six
or seven wounded; hut we have been unable to
learn their names. . .
Neither the force nor the loss, of the enemy
is ascertained, as they carried their dead and
wounded with them. We captured- two
prisoners, ,who were committed to Libbv
Prison. During the retreat, of this column
they threw two or three shells at the dwelling
house of Hon.'James Lyons, which exploded
in the yard without damage.
They stopped the carriage of Mr. John P.
Ballard, took both the horses, and carried off
the'horses of Mr. Goddin. The latest report
we have from this retreating column, is that
they had halted five or six miles from the city
to take refreshments. They are probably en
deavoring to make their escape by way of the
White House.
We omitted to mention a report that they
saluted Camp Lee with a few shells, but this
lacks confirmation. The detachment that went
to Goochland, according to the statement of an
escaped prisoner, included-a large body of ne
groes, mounted and armed.
' They seized and brought with them a consid
erable number of negroes as they passed
through the country, as well as a large number
of horses, which were brought into requisition
whenever others were exhausted and gave out.
Before leaving the Central RaDroad they im
pressed into service a negro guide, to pilot
them to the vicinity of the city, which they in
tended and expected to arrive at last night, to
'effect a junction probably with a column from
the direction of Ashland.
The negro, however, intentionally or igno
rantly, piloted them in the wrong direction,
and they landed in Goochland, as above stated,
about daylight yesterday, for which they hung
him yesterday afternoon. It is reported that a
detachment from this column went to the river
at Mannakin’s Ferry.
It is believed they went there with the in
tention of crossing, if practicable, and coming
over on the south side. Whether they suc
ceeded or not»we have not learned. Some of
the privates expressed regret at the burning
of houses, but said they acted under orders.
A negro belonging to Stanard was captured,'
and after being with them all day, feigned
sickness, and being sent off under guard, three
of onr pickets galloped up and captured the
Yankees, and released the negro.
About three o’clock P. M. yesterday.the en
emy advanced toward the city by the western"
or river road, evidently the same force that
went to.Goochland. They formed into line of
battle not far above the city, and from tho
brisk firing of musketry heard in that direction
about dusk, it is supposed a fight occurred.
The enemy were afterwards reported to have
been repulsed. A number of prisoners were
brought in about eight o’clock last night. Hp
to a late hour tof writings this, we learned no
particulars. The body of raiders is under com
mand of Gen. Kilpatrick, celebrated in connec
tion with the raid of last sprmg, passing over
very much the identical route. Beside* the
general destruction of property, one of the
principle objects of the raid was evidently the
release of prisoners in this city, but the plan
miscarried by the treachery or ignorance of
the negro guide. It is not supposed that it
would have been successful had it been other-'
wise.
Gobdonsvule, March I.—The raiders are
falling back from Charlottesville over the
road they came. They burned Burstly’s flour
mill, six miles from Charlottesville, yesterday.
The column of the enemv which went to
Frederick’s Hall captured at that point Col.
H. P; Jones, Captains Derinont, Garber,
Chaney, Page, "Watson, and two lieutenants.
They did us very little damage at Frederick’s
Hall. Rain is still falling.
CONVEYANCE OF SOUND BY THE TEETH.
To the Editor of the Philadelphia Evening
Bulletin—ln the New York Observer of Feb.
25, 1864, was an article on the “conveyance of
sound,” stating, as a fact not generally known,
that sound might be transmitted by the teeth
when the ears were closed, almost as distinctly
as by the ears when they were open.
Wishing to test experimentally this assertion
of the Observer, I took the end of a long
wooden pole (22 feet long) between my teem,
and requested another person to scratch at the
opposite end,when I distinctly heard the sound
of the scratching, though when my teeth were
removed from contact with the pole it was
quite inaudible. '
This, in connection with the following inci
dent in Philadelphia a few years ago,suggested
to me the inquiry whether contact with the
teeth, as a medium for the communication of
sound, might not be resorted to, in some cases
with advantage, in the education of the Deaf
and Dumb; and in hopes it may lead to some
practical benefit to that afflicted class, I send
yon an account of the incident as follows:
In 1860 I became acquainted with a very
sweet deaf and dumb girl, about 15 years old,
who was a great favorite with my daughter (of
nearly the same age), as indeed she was with all
who knew her. One day, my daughter, her
deaf and dumb friend, and several other young
girls, accompanied by the parents of some of
them, visited Fairmount Water Works, and
while resting in the parlor of the hotel there, a
gentleman with them—the father of one of the
girls—called for sherry cobblers for the party,
which were furnished, each tumbler being pro
vided with a glass tube by which to draw the
liquid into the mouth. When the tumblers
were nearly emptied, the air, entering with the
water into the tubes, produced a gurgling sound.
All at once, the deaf and dumb girl became
greatly excited, laughed vociferously, and,
springing to her feet,, and calling by gesture the
attention of her companions, pointed, first—into
her tumbler, and then to her ears, and then
laughed again. As Boon as sufficiently com
posed, she told the other girls, in the manual
language of the deaf and dumb, that she heard
distinctly, while finishing her sherry cobler, the
noise of the water passing through the glass
tube from her tumbler to her mouth—the first
sound she had ever heard in her life.
_ WJen the deafness, in the case of deaf and
dumb persons, is occasioned by malformation
or deficiency in the external structure only of
the ear, and the internal parts are complete it
is probable that sound may be communicated
successfully by the teeth; but where the inter
nal structure is itself deficient, no means of
conveying sound would produce sensation; and
it follows that the deaf and dumb person would
not hear, whatever means were adopted. Still
it would be worth while to try the experiment,
experiment so simple and easy; if it failed
would be no worse than before; and if it
friensi ■gratification of the patient and
wmiM So° U v d J 3O unbounded, while the trouble *
would be sbght. imagine, for instance, what

exquisite delight the .girl above-mentioned
might have experienced from , the music of a
piano or organ communicated jas it might easily
have been, a fixture of metal ‘of • wood or
any other dense material, attached to any musi
cal instrument, and so formed that she dould
put one end into her mouth, A common two
foot ruler placed under the lid of a piano
would probably convey the sound in this man
lier distinctly, and a silver , bracket screwed to
the lid would convey it yet more perfectly;
