THE HiBOE OB BHEBMAH.
The gratifying Intelligence that Sherman Is safe,
which I arfnowable to. communicate to you, will
be the most acceptable whloh oould reach the ears
of the public, ''Free from all dangers whldfchave.

tlomwith; Gen., Schofield’? fpreeg.-j Already hla
oouriersihaye commenced to arrive at Gen. Terry’s
heafquarters, bringing Intelligence of his safety
and -triumphant maroh. A ooorier,.who andvedt
last night, communicates the intelligence: that.
Sherman,,when beleftrblm, was'at Lumberton with,
the advance’of his forces. Lumberton is about
sixty-live mlleß from here, and' twenty- eight mites
from Fayetteville, in a direct line. A courier who"
had leit Sberman a day or twoprevfcnu, stated that,
on the 4th of March he was at Bennettsvllle.. HIs >
march, judging from hls present direction, will anion”
"bring him to FayettevlHe, about seventy-five miles
from us on the Oape Fear river. ' : i
SBEBMAS’S STRATEGY. ' ' ;
" When Sherman was'at Oheraw. S. 0.,-he if as
threatened by Joe Johnston on hls left flank, and
by Hardee upon his right, but adroitly evading a
simultaneous attack by those generals, : whloh is
the only hind of attaok they can hope to make with
success, he passed between them, leaving them, dis
comfited by his strategy, In his rear, " ,
There may be fighting before the gallant army
..which has traversed Georgia mid South Carolina
so successfully ere they reach Fayetteville, but
Sherman’s march, which has hitherto been as Irre
sistible as destiny, Is not likely to be soon impeded'
by any efforts whloh the rebels can tjiake, unless
they are more successful in tholr efforts at oonoen
tratlon than, from the present situation of affairs,
they seem likely to be. The Union cause" is moving
grandly on, and It “needs no ghost to come from
the grave ” to tell the speedy and triumphant con
clusion "of the war, whloh, like the blood-red rays of
the setting snn, is streaking the national horizon
with a lurid glory.
OUR RELEASED PRISONEHS.
The condition of the prisoners who by the recent
jail delivery, consequent upon the exchange now
in operation, have been delivered Into our hands by
the rebel authorities, Is still the subject of universal
Indignation. Even some of the citizens who make
no secret of their Southern sympathies freely ex-'
press their surprise and horror at the sight which •
everywhere meets their eyes, In the pale, emaciated
forms Of these'men. It haß already been stated that
ten thousand of these men were tohavebeen re
ceived at this point. On Saturday last we were no
tified that the last had been sent. Bat of the ten
thousand only eight: thousand six hundred and
eighty-four were received, or whom nine hundred
imd.ninety-two were officers and seven thousand six
hundred and ninety-two enlisted men. There are
three eanses why we did not receive the fall num
ber. Firstly. Many who Were Intended to be regu
larly exchanged have escaped from the rebel
dutches ■ during the evacuation of and retreat
from Wilmington. Secondly, Many on their
way from the rebel prisons , were so una
ble to bear the fatlgues of a journey that they

the rolls were made out. Never were men tn a civi

those we have received here. Two thousand were
unable to walk, and were what is technically called
"stretcher patients." There was not a-stout,
strong, healthy man in the whole number;we
have received. The two thousand who were
most debilitated are In the , General
Hospital, under the charge of Dr. D. McPaU.
The others are scattered all over the olty In differ
ent buildings, devoted to hospital purposes. Fif
teen die every day, upon an average. Half their
names cannot be obtained, as they are too weak to
■ pronounce.them,;andhave no papers which can lead
to their Identification. Most of them were, on their
reception here, in a nearly naked condition. Some
were entirely so, and the best clad had only rags for
covering. By the energy of Dr. N. S. Barnes, the
Medical Director of this department, their wants
are being rapidly supplied;

that it is more satisfaetory than in any other cap

THE MASKED CHANGE IN WILMINSTON.
He who left Wilmington on the day of Its captnre,
and returns now will scarcely recognize the place.
Then all the stores were closed; private houses ex
hibited no signs of the life stirring within; the ho
tels were “banquet halls deserted,” and gave no
comfort to the weary traveller; the street corners
were principally occupied by groups of negroes wel
coming the advancing column of troops; and, though
there was much bustle and confusion, It was not tbe
bustle and confußlon which accompany a normal
condition of affairs. How all Is ohanged. The stores
are open, and their owners gladly welcome the
Northern purchaser of their various wares; private/
houses are not only open, but they eagerly greet the
officers of our army as boardere.and many afamlly
once well.to-So and full of Southernpridels obliged,
however relactantly, to aocept .thls means of earn,
ibg its dally bread. Eating-houses ore plenty, and,
if hot supported in a very luxurious style, still they
afford arespeotable meal at a very aristocratic price.

BAD CONDITION OP
The town is probably more
It has been for a’considerable space the
places of those who have deserted thelnffiltations
are more than filled by the attaches of head
quarters and the garrison of the town. There ’are
many sad scenes here, however, and one Cannot
walk far without-being touched by sharp pangs of
mental anguish. Everywhere In the lower part of
the city the eye Is afflicted by the sight of skeletons
of men arrayed In every, sort of nnoouth garb. You
look atthelr strange, unnatural faces and wonder
whether these are the visages of living men or not
rather parchment shins - tightly drawn over a flesh
less skull. Their eyes are sunken, and you soareely
see that , they have vision. They are often hatless,
and you wllfeee the head of a young man or a boy
bald as an old man’s 'pate, A few weak, strag
gling hairs are all that; suffering has left, or that
starved nature has been able to sustain.! These
poor beings, when they are strong enough' to
creese about, wander a little way .from their hos
pitals and sun themselves upon cellar-doors, and
tie upon the brick pavements. In the hospitals are
men with wounds on which worms breed and feed
upon the living flesh. Yon see men whose toes hive
•sen eaten Into by disease and maggots till tthe,
joints have dropped off. These men have their feet
sound up In rags, and they hobble slowly about,
•opporting their faltering footsteps by rude sticks.
You would suppose that these men had reached the
-cry pit of human misery, but if yon converse with
hem they will toll yon that they are: happy. They
have been In the bands of inhuman creatures, men
without hearts, almost without souls; now they are
-ith their friends, and they are happy. They have
• eon foully maltreated and starved; now they are
-enderly cared for and fed. Home Is beckoning to
• hem. The liberated prisoner only waits for health
«hd strength, which hope will soon breathe Into! his
■ elns, and Wen he will be In an earthly paradise—‘
ome.

- swamp, and all was thought safe In that direction.

do best fighting-In oiir‘front, forced Its. way
.*yiroughan intricate pass in the swamp, whloh tholr .

acquainted with/and rushed ln the roar of this bri

men, tsken unawares as they were, attending to the

and flre.a single volley before the prlnolpal portion

of the country, and the Intricacy of the paths

enemy have the advantage of a complete knowledge

separation of our two wings, but Brevet Major

008 XIOHT ON VBinAT—TUB BBBBX.S BBPULSBD.
Friday saw a heavier fight than had yet taken
place. Y Our lines remained In the shape of a bow,
the centre protruding; towards thorebels, and near
er to them than on Wednesday. This portion of the
lints mu held by Gem Huger. One regiment of his
.troops, tb.ei.74th Ohio, had, however, been stationed
on ezitreme left, gs an attempt ofthe-rebals to
galu ouf rear was thought not improbable. Except'
the position held bythls regiment, the left wing
Sms ocoupled by Gen. Carter’s provisional division.
The rebels, either probably elated by their success
of Wednesday, wishing to feel our position, or else
hoping to throw a force, in ourrear, made a. sudden
attack upon the position held by the 174th Ohio. As
soon as theassault became known, Gen. Euger de
spatched another regiment to the left, and these
forces gallantly withstood the rebel attack, and
hurled. tho enemy rapidly back, inflicting a con
siderable loss upon them., In this attack the
rebels- were met with- both musketry and
artillery, and retreated in-such haste that
-they left their dead and. wounded lying upon the
field, and these consequently fell - Into our. posses
sion. After this repulse' the rebel centre made a'
mistake, and suffered for It. Judging from their
subsequent movements, their plan seems to have
been to attack our centre as-soon aB their assault
upon onr left had reunited successfully, as they sup
posed it Would. Our men, driving back the rebels
on the left, sent after them' In their retreat several
hearty volleys of oheers. These the rebel commander
supposed to be their own shout of victory, and, car
rying out the programme' of attack, he ordered an
assault upon onr centre.' The brunt of battle was
■again borne by Knger’s.troops, and with the same
result. The enemy had no chance. Instead of their
attack upon our left proving a diversion In their
favor, its repulse enabled reinforcements In onr
centre to be brought from that point. The
enemy during the day only attacked,to be re
pulsed, and their assault upon onr oentre fared no
better than their attempt at overthrowing our left..
They were met, as they advanced, with ball and
shell, and with haste they retreated; to tholr old
positions,having experienced quite enough to satisfy
them that our lines had been established only to be
removed at onr option, and then In a Kinston direc
,tlon. Onr loss In these two successful fights was'
between seventy-five and one hundred; that of the
enemy could scarcely have boon-less than two hun
dred, in' killed and wounded, besides throe hundred
prisoners. • '
- A VOI.TTNTABV BUREEKDBB.
An incident happened Immediately after their re
pulse, on the left, whloh affords another illustration
of the hollowness of the feeling whloh now supports
the Southeraoause, and of -tire demoralisation with
whloh' tbe rebel army is affllotod, as a body wlth a
festering cancer. •-
Ho sooner did the ill-fortune of the assault be
come evident; than a white flag was observed in a
portion of the lino, which was rather gjore.tardy
than the rest to retreat.' Suoh a sight Is no no
velty, and our men Knew its meaning. They imme
diately shouted: ~ “ Gome In, Johnniesand no
BobnerhadtUl rude Invitation been given than in
the johnnies oame. Then were one hundred and
forty of them, and they were disgusted with the
rebellion'and all its appurtenances In general
short rations ana fighting unsuccessfully so con-,
tinually ln partlcular. So they surrendered them,
selves to our tender mercies, trusting rather lnthe
clemenoy of the Government against which they
have been fighting for four yoars and .seeking to
dostriri, thsm in their own choaenauthoritleswhom
they have sworn to love, honor, and obey. Verily,
defeat is a bitter pill,' and ‘produces surprising
effects upon rebellions'stomachs. -
.Yesterdaynothing took place In our lines, save
Industrious preparations for future operations, be
fore which Kinston must sorely fall, for General
Schofield has determined to take it; and even if by
placing a powerful army behind Its defences the
rebels could, keephlm at bay, their position would
speedily be rendered untenable by that Great Mogul
of raiders, “ Teeumseh” Sherman, who was last
heard from at Laurensbnrg, and was then advancing
in the direction of 'Fayetteville and Goldsboro.
This , last-mentioned place, as will be seen by a re
: ference to a map, Is directly in the rear of Kinston,
where the rebels will fare ,badly If they wait very
long. . ..
indeed, It Is already reported that Kinston 1b eva
cuated, and. the statement,’firem the present posi
tion of affairs, Is not unlikely to be true. Certain
it Is that If the enemy long remain In their present
position a battle eannot be long delayed. < Our lines
are now firmly established, the right crossing the
Newborn and Goldsboro BaUroad, the left crossing
the Lower Trent road, and the centre bending for
ward near the Southwest Greek. As soon as trans
portation oan be obtained to convey our troops
aoross the House river a further advance on Kinston -
will probably bo made. We are now about four
miles from the town.

THE EVACUATION OF KINSTON.
After the evaouationof Kinston yesterday by the
mein force of the rebels, the town was reooenpled
by their pickets, probably merely as a bravado. ' It
is considered very Improbable that the rebels will
retreat from Goldsboro without ft bloody struggle.
There Is ho knowing, however, what Sherman maiy
do. By one.of his' famous flanking marches he may
be able, when he comes up, to turn the rebel posi
tion, and thus take this'. strongly ; deftnded city
without a battlowlth the rebel armies ln'Horth
Carolina.. .
Possibly it might have been held against the
forces whloh first' advanced .from Newborn against
it, but the arrival of General Couch with reinforce
ments from Wilmington gave us a power whloh the
rebels could not -resist. The junction of General
Oouoh was effeeted this afternoon upon our left at
Beaver Greek, tfho steady advance of General
Sherman towards Goldsboro doubtless Is another
element lnthe combination which led to the evacua
tion of this important position, as I learn that the
oitlsens of Kinston say that the rebel troops left
very hastily for Goldsboro, which place Is being
strongly fortified.
BBEEMAN’B OAVALBY AT TROY.
A rebel surgeon, who remained Behind at Kinston,
apd gave himsoU up as deserter upon the arrival
of oar troop?, reports’ thatthe last: intelligence
which' bad' been received by the rebels from Slier*
man was that bis cavalry bad entered the town of
Troy. This is situated in Montgomery opunty, nearly'
In the centre of North Carolina.. This party of ca
valry was probably sentout from the main body
or the army on a foraging or scouting expedition,’
as it oan, Scarcely be possible that Sherman is OP
verging from his course In a northwesterly direction.
When last beard from, It will be’ remembered that
.Ms forces.were in Xanrensburg, near Laurel Hill,
which 1b in Richmond'county,’ Troy is one or two
days' gallopforgocd cavalry, bslng about seventy
mllesifrom L&urestburg.
The business season this year-at Newborn pro
mises to be a very aietlve one. New stores are being
opened, and fresh stocks of goods are coming from
the North in large quantities. The hotel# and
boarding houses are doing a good business. They
are filled with officers, business men from the'
North, and visitors who come to this department to.
-satisfy their: onrloalty as to the movements In the
State in which may lie the final battle-ground of the'
war. This influx of strangers. makes Newborn a
very lively place. , . ,
BBW HOSPITAIB.
New hospitals are being erected and old ones en
larged for the reception of wounded men, for It
does not seem as If the rebels can long delay making
a desperate stand without giving up every vestige
ofhope for the Confederacy. •

The question as to kow flu-the right to store potro
lenm within the cltjr limits should be interfered
with seems to be somewhat vexations In its charac
ter, and'the lntelUgentand reflective oreaturea who
constltnt# onr Common Jiounoll are just now
vigorously discussing its proprieties. Dealers In
the orude and refined oil, who are safely shielded
in the comprehensive bosoms of Insurance compa
nies, and therefore oar# but little for whatever
ebullitions and conflagrations may result, are in
clined to be more or less fractions, and alamor for
more liberty In the premises than the
seems Inclined to bestow. •
•The restrictive ordinance, as proposed, allows
twenty-five barrels only of refined, oil to .be stored'
within the limits, and these to be kept within cel
lars fully ventilated, (and connected with the
sewers, according to one draft.) Of the erode
article only five barrels are allowed. The refined
oil must withstand a fire-tost of one hundred and
ten degrees Fahrenheit. No storage Is to be allow
ed upon sidewalks,-in alleys, or upon dooks, or In
any slip.. The penalty attaohed to 'every offence
against any of the provisions Is a fine of five hundred
dollars, half of which sum will go to the Informer,
and half to. the Fire Department fund.
TBS SOLS DECLINE
of the past few days Is creating a very uncomforta
ble feeling in business circles,and many “ authentic
gentlemen” are denouncing It as > misfortune to
the community; and' one that will plunge us into
panic and a whirlwind of bankraptey. Which panic
and bankruptcy consumers, who have been unmerci
fully fleeced for many months, do not anticipate
with any profound grief. There are rumors of much
of that reeling in Wall street which precedes indi
vidual tumblings. Tims far, however, the specula
tors seem to keep well to thelrtbet.

Gkk. Glbant has recommended the trial of the
ration prescribed by Professor Horsford, and a half
million of it has been ordered. It substitutes roasted
wheat Tot. “ bard tack,” meat sausage In the place
of salt beef, pork, &a., and self-raising floor in the
place of soft bread, for a marching ration. Thirty
days of Eoreford’s rations can be carried with less
difficulty than eight of the present ration.
FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
' There was bo let up yesterday In the panic which we'
noticed In the cold market on Wednesday. The decline
ie steady and persistent, reflecting in the general esti
mation of the people, the rapid decline of tberabellion. .
Never probably lines the outbreak of the war hasthe
. conviction been so strong In the minds of every class |6f i
our citizens that the prospects of the Confederacy Wets
so very slender Be now. Gold has beao, tosomq' ex
tent, the barometer of puhlfa opinion on this
and the high premium could only bo maintained while,,
there wee a reasonable foundation on which to buHi a,
hope that a had cause might prosper. We now S *C the ‘
beginning of the end, and hence this uneasy feeling,’
among the money changers', who appear to be'tlk'last.
to aceipt the logic of events. Greenbacks are ndw dp- '
