Most of the soldiers NOD ha - e been guar . tend among us since shortly before the Oc tober election, left town yesterdAy, we un alerstand, for New Brighton. We should like, as a matter of curiosity, to see some of the letters on tile, in the Pro vost Marshal's office, at New Brighton, Which were the cause of bringing these sol diers here. We know that some of the offi cers of this company exi r s d ser se to gentlemen here, that insterd of finding the nest of Rebellion these letters represented to be in existence in this county, they found a peaceable, loyal, civil and quiet Com The best and kinlest of feelings Itio'e crea ted between Our citisens and these soldiers, since the:r suior.rn a nt ung us. A Shooting Affray in Uniontown A personal difficulty occurred iu Union- Iltoirn, on Friday, the 24th ult., between Ex ? Sheriff Cope, of Fayette county, and a Dr. Ilhepherd, of Preston Co , Va., which came flit pearly resulting in the death of Cope. The difficulty occurred in a saloon. Shep herd is represented to have been under the tad : of and indUlged in some re marsail a 'eccal tendency, to which (lope (who is acting as Provost Ihrshal) !Are to take offence, lie slapped Shep 111110d, (who is a small man) two or three tunes in the face, whim he drew a revolver and fired, the ball striking Cope on the left breast, but in consequence of its striking a pocket book, containing papers an inch and •quarter in thickness, it glanced, and thus saved Cope 's life. A second shot was then tlred which struck Cope in the thigh, causing severe, but not regarded as fatal wonnd.— They Doctor was then severely handled by (lope's friends, after which ail the parties were bound over to appear at court. Oil ! Oil ! ! We hear that within a few days the "Con tinental Oil company," boring oirthe Maple Farm, has struck oil in what they regard as paying quantities. We trust this will turn out to be true. A considerable number of the company are residents of this place, and we are rejoiced to hear of their good luck. The excitement on the subject of oil is spreading in our county, and we hear of com panies all around us organised and about to organize, to engage in this enterprise.— This is the case on Whiteley creek, Muddy creek and Ten Mile creeks, and their trib utaries, as well as on ainkard creek, which at present is regarded as the leading point of attraction. The only reason for this, proba bly is, that oil is already demonstrated to exist there. But why its existence should be confined to that stream, we cannot see. Experiments will probably soon test the tact whether it has an existence there alone. We seem to be situated in the middle re gion between the Allegheny and Kenawha, en both of which oil certainly exists in great tiandance, and the theory seems to be plausable, at least, that it should be found ea Ali our streams as well as in those locali ties. Eastern capiftlists are beginning to be at tracted to this region. We hear m. several purchases being made by companies exciting in Yew York, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, salf Jan& Fin fee simple, in this:lcou nty. We are tit& likely to have the experiment made ter %HS, by these companies, without the ex penditure et much local capital. This suits goer circumstastoes quite. well. If successful, mar Sanitiulders and other citizens, will thus be enriched, and those thins spending their money will also be amply compensated. . Trustees of Waynesburg College.

The Fight on-the Oconee 'River GENERAL CALL 'CO ARMS AsiitNi;ll)s, Nlventber, 28 Full files of Richmond papers of Sat urday, :Nth, came to hand this ti - wiling. The Richmond 8, ntincl, of Saturday 2.6 th, says: The information from Georgia is of the most hopeful character: But as the New-York papers admit that they have had no ictormation from Georgia, ex cept what they get from southern pa pers, it makes it more important that our papers should preserve a vtriet Silence in regard to military movements in that state. This explanation should relieve our people of any uneasiness arising - from the reticence of press. The Navy Departirumt has received a batch of southern papers, via, Savannah. The Augusta papers do not regerd the cavalry Coda which occurred on the Oconee river, near Milledgeville, in half so favorable a light for the confederacy as do the Richmond papers.

Great Battle in Tennessee. Hood Reptiked in Foar Assaults. HIS LOSS 5,000 TO 6,000 Battle 'Momentarily Expected FNANK.I.IN, Dee. 2. To Major Gen. 7hoo?«$ The enemy made a heavy and per sistent attack with two com mencing at tour p. rn. and lasting till at ter dark. He was ropuls.-il at all points, with a heavy loss, of five or six hundred men. Our loss is probably not more than one-fourth of that number. We have captured about one thousand men, including one Brigadier General. (Signed) JNo. Scnorm.D.Xtqj. Gen Parties who have arrived froin the front, were witnesses to the battle of yesterday, and describe the attack of the rebel forces as desperate. Four charges were made upon the Federal line of masked batterries, in a body of four lines deep. Each lime the rebels were reptil- , ed with fearful loss. The first is on the north bank of the river, opposite the town. Extending up the river, encircling the town, was the line of ma-ked batteries. Eye witnesses say this engagement, in des, ensation and furious fighting, was hardly equalled by the battle of Stone River. Forrest, in person, was in the field, rallying his men. A rumor is in circulation that he was killed, but it lacks confirmation. About seven o'clock la•t night, heavy reinforcements reached Schofield, which caused a complete ►route of the rebel forces. The city, to-day, is lull of fleeing res idents of Williamson and other counties south. They state that Hood is gath ering up all the horses, hogs and mules he can find, and sending them South There is a great panic among the ne °Toes in the countries south of Nash yflle. Numbers are flocking to the city for protection. NAsavittE, Dec. L—The redtzral forces under Gen. Thomas retired froin Franklin last night, and had taken po,ition and form ed in line of battle &all of Nashville about three miles. Skirmishing has been g.)ing on all day about live miles South of here. Cannonading can be distinctly heard in the city. No want of confidence is felt by citi zens in the ultimate success of the Federals. The employees of the Quartermasters De partment are under arms and within the trenches. One hundred and seven Gited crate officers, including one Brigadier Gener al, and one thousand prisoners arrived in the city this morning, captured in the tight last night near Franklin Tenn. A great battle may momentarily be expected. Five of our Gunboats near Mobile. NEW YORK, NOV. 30.—8 y the steamer, Fort Moran, we have late advices from the Gulf. Five of our gunboats lie in Mobile Bay, only three miles from the city, at Dog River Bar. Great lawlessness prevails at Bagdad, on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande. An expeditionary Union lbrce under Lieutenant Colonel Sterling consisting of the Second Maine cavalry, captured a company of rebels and a number of small arths, at Barren Bridge, The Richmond Press. NEW Yo.loi, Nov. 30.—Among the significant articles in the rebel news papers is - one in the Rrichmond Whig of the 20th inst., urging the little real importance to the Conledercy of the fall of Richmond. This is evidently put forth to cheek the shock its fall will produce. Wood is one hundred dollars per cord in Richmond, and many families are WI GEN. SHERMAN'S MOVEMENT. Georgia is the grand point in the present campaign alter all. Other fields secure but a cursory glance, and the mind's eye turns almost instinctively toward this great field of military operations. By this time it is wt.ll Illidernif )14 whither the allay of Sher loan is aiming, for despite the reticence of the southern press, his course lets been too clearly :narked out. The latest intelligence represents him as operating on the line of the Geo:gin tee tral Railroad, haVi rig possibly turned aside front Macon, but certainly cap tured Millegeville, anti dashed eastward with his cavalry, some accounts represent as far east as Millen. We may reasonably soppose, from the tonic (;t the Richmond papers, that General S' , erman has really accomplished more than their are willing to give him credit for, and, taking a 1)y no means highly colored view of his sueees, we may conjecture that he has actually touched the line of the Savan nah river, and is ere, this effecting combina tion which will place his forces on the em ber(' within a very brief period Tut itti.r..Ntkv. 0' 1\ ralso-NErs The intelligence brought by the steamer from Hilton Head that General Sherman has effected the rrlease of Union soldiers, prison sat Millen, is nut impossible. His cavalry has, doubtless, travelled at the rate of hilly miles per day, and the time has been ample to reach Millen. His infantry, if he has titricul aside from Macon and followed the line of the railroad. has hal time to advance to a point from which it would not be Litz ardons to send forward n body of cavalry, es pecially under so intrepid a leader as Kilpat rick. Under th e se circumstances, it is by no uuans improlialtle, that nat. prisoners In southern camps have had their hearts glad dened by the presence tit the old flag, and been released from their imprisonment with out, the formalities Of au exchange. :-.UEIZNIAR'S PLAN it riper:' to hove been the determination of “metal M!ierm:lti whea he set out to strike e:reetivelv ;it the Twist vital points in the Son.h, particularly the State of Georgia; and :is rbpiWy ns po. , sible Millet the neces sary dwiwge nod gain a place of .•!;tlety. her , manent occupation of the country does not seem to 'MAT bean part of his plan at all.

It is not believeil, I ye vet', that he intenas to occupy any seaboard city, but that he seeks Iby thre:aening sevund points trr draw the !enemy's Invites the re.tl a;tercie he has chosen tor escape. Tints, lie may menace Aligeta awl intend really to pass to the northward ut it ; Or he Ilidy pass southward Mom Millen and menace S'iaviintuill, while he really intends going still further south and wake Brunswick, on St. Simon's bay, his real point of departure tbr the North.— Again, lie may actually intend the carrying of Charleston by a coup de main from the rear, and, having captured the cradle of re bellion, make that a base for future opera tions. 'Upon this which is so much in doubt in the present writing, it is scarcely worth while to enter into any extended spec ulation. M=MMEIrMMXWMNMEMIT, From the point. at which we suppose Gen. Sherman how is, it would require but tbur days' marching, such it has had, for his cav alry to reach St. Simons bay, and emmnuni cate with the gunboats there. More than double that period would be required for the main bitd% of his army to teach the same point, and a longer period for any other place to be reached. It is possible that we may have news direct, from Sherman this week via S ivannah. even if he does not arrive at the sea-coast with his .army. co-ovErATtos FR.ONS THE FLEZT From all that can be learned respecting the movement of our fleet on the coastithere is not the slightest probability that any at tempt has been made to co-operate with General Sherman's movement. No special force appears to have been sent to any point, and the great armada, which was supposed to have been prepared for an attack upon Wilmington, re mains in Hampton Roads in a state of readiness for an advance, but the signal has not yet been set on the admiral's flag-ship. From this we inter that Gen. Sherman is expected to help himself, and, when he reaches the coast, to avail himself of whatever means are at hand to procure supplies and transport his army northward if that shall be his ultimate destination. Latest from Sherman—Reports from Savannah—Advance on that City Believed. The Crminierciars Washington special says the Hichmond papers of Tuesday contain no intelligence concerning Sher man. They state that neit)ter Macon nor ..‘ugusto were taken on the 2fith, and that the trains were taming regularly het ween the cities of Macon and ugus ta. It is believed that the 6tatement will prove incorrect. The special correspondent of the Bal timore America,/ telegraphs from Annap olis as follows: The steamer Constitution has arrived with seven hundred paroled men. She left Savannah on Thursday morning. No papers had been recieved later than the 22d. Nothing definite had been heard fi•onr Sherman. but it was the general belief in Savannah that he was advancing on that city in two columns. There was great consterna tion among the Rebel authorities. NEW YOUR. Nov. 30.—A. norrespe,n dent of the 7ribmie, from the blockading fleet off Wilmington, says: A steamer recently ran tht Noel:Tie in open day, passing within sight of the whole fleet at anchor. The Tine's army of the Potomac spe cial says the rewit attempt of the rebels to destroy a portion ()four line, by darn ing a stream, has thrown the water back through a bend upon a portion of the rebel line, and threatens serious damage to Lee's position. The Militaay Railroad has been ex tended two miles further on the left. Gen.

BNB's Office, Wa)natAurg, /86LA • ecay. The scrofulous contamination is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, disordered digestion from unhealthy food, impttre air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, :I!,ove all, by the venereal infection. 'Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the constitution, descending "from parents to children unto the third and firth generation ; " indeed, it seems to be the rod of Him who says, " I will visit the iniqui ties of the fathers upon their children." The diseases which it originates take various names, according to the organs it attacks. In the lungs, Scrofula produces tubercles, and finally Consumption ; in the glands, swellings which suppurate and become ulcerous sores ; in the stomach and bowels, derangements which pro duce indigestion, dyspepsia, and liver com plaints; on the skin, eruptive and cutaneous affections. These all hating the same origin, require the same remedy, viz. purification and invigoration of the blood. Purify the blood, and these dangerous distempers leave you. With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you can not have health ; with that " life of the flesh" healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease. Ayer's Sarsaparilla is compounded from the most effectual anti dotes that medical science has discovered for this afflicting distemper, and for the cure of the disorders it entails. That it is far superior to any other remedy yet devised, is known by,„sill who have given it a trial. That it does com bine virtues truly extraordinary in their AO upon this class of complaints, is indisputtibly proven by the great multitude of publicly known and remarkable cures it has made of the following diseases : King's Evil ate Glandular Swellings, Tumors, Erup. tiona, Pimples, Blotches and Sores, aipelas, Rose or St. Anthony's Fire, Milt Rheum, Scald Read, Coughs from ta• berculous deposits in the lungs, INte Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Nen:rat a Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases, Female Weaknesses, and, indeed, the whole series of complaints that arise from impurity of the blood. Minute reports of individual cases may be found in AYER'S AMERICAN ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists for gratuitous distribution, wherein may be learned the directions for its use, and some of the remarkable cures which it has made when all other remedies had failed to afford relief. Those cases are purposely taken from all-sec tions of the country, in order that every reader may have access to some one who can speak to him of its benefits from personal experience. Scrofula depresses the vital energies. and thus leaves its victims far more subject to disease and its fatal results than are healthy constitu tions. Hence it tends to shorten, and does greatly shorten, the average duration of human life. The vast importance of these considera tions has led us to spend years in perfecting 41, remedy which is adequate to its cure. 0 Thlb we now offer to the public under the name of ATER'S SARSAPARILLA, although it is com posed of ingredients, some of which exceed the best of Sarsaparilla in alterative power. By its aid you may protect yourself from the suffer ing and danger of these disorders. Purge out the foul corruptions that rot and fester in the blood; purge out the causes of disease, and vigorous health will follow. By its peetdiar virtues this remedy stimulates the vital func tions, and thus expels the distempers which lurk within the system or burst out on any part of it. We know the public have been deceived by many compounds of Sarsaparilla, that promised much and did nothing; but thcv will neither be deceived nor disappointed in this. Its virtues have been proven by abundant trial, and there remains no question of its surpassing excellence for the cure of the afflicting diseases it is in tended to reach. Although under the same name, it is a very different medicine from any other which has been before the people, and is far more effectual than any other which Me ever been available to them. IME CHERRY PECTORAL, The World's Great Remedy SW Coughs, Colds, Incipient Con sumption, and for the relief of Consumptive patients in advanced stages of the disease. This has been so long used and so naive*., sally known, that we need do no more thoa assure the public that its quality is kept op to the best it ever has been, and that it may be relied on to do all it has ever done.
