LONGWORTH’S CATAWBA WINES, SPARKLING AND STILL. FRED. S. COZZENS, Sole Agent, Washington, D. C., and 73 Warren st., New York THESE WINES, independent of their excellent qualities as Table Wines, are also highly recom- mended for medicinal use, They are entirely pure wholesome, and, at the same time, economical. Among the numerous recommendations received from members of the Faculty, the following letters may be cited: Sanitary Commission, Washington, D. C., April 2, 186: F. B. Cozzens, ®sq.: Sin—With some difficulty I have got from hospi- tal surgeons sufficient data wherewith to found an estimate of the value of the ‘Still Catawba” wine of Mr. Longworth as an article of hospital stores, It seeme to be especially valuable as a tonic and stimulant in the stage of convalescence from acute disease. It is generaliy acceptadle to the stomach, and its acidulous quality renders it gratefd! tothe | palate. * * * * * The “Sparkling Catawba” shares with other true eparkling wines the characteristic of agrecing well | with the stomach, 3. FOSTER JENKINS, Yours truly, Cixctxnati, December 17, 1861. Dear Str—In answer to your note, I will say I | very much prefer the Catawba wine to any other | aleoholic stimulant in Typhoid fever, The acidis very acceptable to fever patients. I always dilnte | itwith water; twoorthree parts of water to one | of wine, and add white suyar to the taste of the patient.

INTERESTING PARTICULARS, a OUR ARMY IN POSSESSION OF COLE'S ISLAND NINE MILES FROM CHARLESTON, Se Mr. C. C. Fulton, of the Baltimore American, writes from Port Royal some highly interesting | particulars concerning the expedition against Charleston. The postscript to his latest let- ter is: April 1, a.m.—We are off this morning for Charleston. We may stop a day or two on the North Edisto, but I think the fight will com- mence before the close of the week. OC. C. F. From his correspondence we take the fol- lowing: As to the mode of attack resolved upon by Admiral Dupont, nothing is definitely known. Whether he will advance slowly, first reducing the outer forts, or whether he will dash on to Sumter with his iron fieet—whether he will pass Sumter and Moultrie and the sand batte- ries in silent contempt, and attack the city—or whether he will firsteffect a landing tor the | troops of Gen. Hunter, before making a serious demonstration on the f nd the city, are all subjects of speculs ere, as they are atthe | North. He keeps his own counsel, and will probably be guided in some measure by cir- cumstances as they may arise. The number of guns now mounted by the rebels along the five miles of approach to the city are estimated at nearly tour hundred, in- cluding those at Sumter, Moultrie, Cumming’s Point, Fort Pinkuey, and a battery command- ing the micdle ground near the city. There are also said to be guns and mortars meunted on the Charleston Batwry, which has a fine front on the epp aches to the city. The troops now assembled at and around Charleston for its ¢ nee are reported to number 75,000. It is presumed that both troops and guns will be brought from Sayannah to join in the defence There is, therefore, no doubt that the att. on Charleston will be the greatest nayal under- iaking in the history of the world. Against hese four hundred guns ouriron-clads will be able to bring to bear not more than thirty, engh it is doubtful whether more than sixty of the ns can be breughtto bear on the jketatany one time. Still. to reach the upper works, if such should be the course adopted, they will be compelled to run the gauntlet of all these immense batteries. The conflict must, therefore, be regarded in advance one de- pending on our powers of ability to give harder blows than we my | ceive, Admiral Dupont has been supplied | by the Goyernment with all the appliances of | science and art in ¢ ectiles and vessels, | ke his me of attack equal to the powerofdetence. His yessels are com- ided by the most skilful and energetic offi- Ts of our navy, and if he dors not succeed it | will be rather trom the invulnerability ef the enemy than from any failure on his part to use all the appli: dat his disposal to the bes . and men-of-war form- ing a portion of Admiral Dupont’s, fleet are very numerous, and » on hand ready and unxieus to ticipate inthe fight. The New lrousides, with her sixteen heavy guns in bat- tery, is » inside of the bar, ready for action. That they will all be brought into service there is 10 doubt, though the «wooden walls” will probably act as skin hers on the outpo moug the officers and cre is very great, and, singu to non-combatants, th iron-clad, whom they fear we honors of the fight.

We will all this evening in readiness to progr city of Charleston, so far as indications are concerned, and the weather, after four days ot | heavy storm and rain, is most fayorable for | the work. { Admiral Dupont will also start to-day for destination, on the James Adger, which will probably be his flagship in the coming fight, though it is generally supposed that he will go into the engagement on board the Lronsides. How long we will waitin the North Edisto is not known, though our stay there will prob- ably be short. It is also not known whetiier the attack will be made by day or by night. We will have fine moonlight nigh: and the Ad- lance ie | State show Union majoritie | the Baltimore steamer S. Folly Islands, and Stono, Folly and Kiawan rivers. At night our pickets were thrown out at pro- T points, and the artillery placed in an e! tie le position. Camp fires were extinguished, soas to obscure our exact position from the rebels. Abont midnight the rebel pickets ex- hibited flash signal-lights within three hondred yards of our picket line. These signals were answered by the rebels at Legareville, two miles distant. The rebel pickets ea Folly Island were alsoemployed during the night in signaling by means of rockets, sometimes showing white and at others red rockets. Cox's IsLanb, March 29 —A scouting party under Capt. L. 8. Payne, of the 100th Regiment, proceeded in the direction of Charleston to-day. The party proceeded with caution, got an ex- cellent view of some of the rebel corps and forts, and returned to this point to-night with valuable information. The Union gunboat Isaac P. Smith, recently captured by the Rebels in Stono river, was taken by them through Wanupau creek to Charleston where she had been metamorphosed into an iron-clad gunboat. She is nearly ready for service, and it is the design of the Rebels to send her back to Stono to try and effect the cap- | ture of our wooden blockaders there. The , water in Waupau creek is at present tooshallow for the Smith to pass through; but the Rebels are remedying this drawback, and are now dredging the shallew parts of the creek. The Rebels have been very busy of late in erecting new and improving the old fortifica- tion in Stono inlet. From Legareville to Waupau creek there are no less than ten earth batteries. Between these points the batteries are placed at sucb distances on each side of the river as to admit each to support the other in case of an attack. The Rebels have also e)- structed the river at numerous points, TATE ELECTIONS, Missouri THE UNCONDITIONAL UNION TICKET BUCCESR- FUL.

The mail steamer Adelaide; @apt. Cannon, arrived at Baltimore yesierday at an eariy hour, bringing a heavy mail, consisting chiefly of parcels and letters addressed to soldiers. Among the arrivals from sea yesterday was R. Spaulding, Capt. S. Howes. She comes from Hilton Head, and reports that 2 tremendous attack would be mude upon Charleston on the 7th inst. A mirza] will be able to take his choice. Passing up either Maflitt's Channel or the Ship Channel our iron-clads will be under the fire of the sand bati-ries for three miles, before they reach Fort Sumter. By entering the Swash Channel, which passes through the centre of the bar, they would avéid all tie bat- teries until they getin range of Sumter. The Swash Channel, however, is too tortuous and uncertain, so that the entrance will doubtless be made by the Ship Channel, which runs along the range of the batteries on Morris Isl- and. This channel is better known. less changeable, and more easily navigated than any of the others. ‘Thus on entering, the fleet, after running the gauntlet of all these shore batteries, will ulti- On ap- proaching Fort Sumter there will be a concen- tration of fire upon them such as has never before occurred in nayal history. The guns of Sumter, Moultrie and Cummings’ Pomt will be able to concentrate their fire on them at one and the same moment, throwing a weight of metal that would probably sink all the wooden vessels inthe nayy if they should approach within striking distance. Within the harbor, beyond Fort Sumter, there will doubtless also be a concentrated fire ot great power, but then the city will be ander the guns of our Monitors. Whether it will stand fire or sursender time will disclose. There are also obstructions in the harbor, which, together with numerous torpedoes, will | render the work of reaching the city front one of great hazard. Whether this will be accom- plished or not a short time will decide. It will be a trial of Monitor vessels in which all the power of modern artillery and engineering ekill will be arrayed for their destruction.

THF MILITARY MOVEMENT TOWARDS CHARLES- TON—OUR ARMY IN POSSESSION OF COLE'S | ISLAND, &. C. : (New York Hera!d’s Army Correspondence.] Coiz’s ISLAND, S. C.,nine miles from Charles- ton, March 2% 1863.—The initiatory movement towards the rebel stronghold, Charleston, South Carolina, has been commenced. The ioneer corps of the grand expedition—the 100th ‘ew York volunteers, Colonel G. B. Dandy, (Brevet Major United States Army)—took an- disputed poszession of Cole's Island, nine miles from Charieston, thig morning. * Cole’s Island, now occupied by ovr is ut the confluence of the Stono and Folly rivers, It is about two miles long and one eighth of a mile wide. Itmught be a part of James Island, as the dividing line (if it may be go called) is a marsh. A causeway connects Cole’s with Jumes’ Island. The isinnd is in proximity to Kiawah, John’s and Thire was a rumor yesterday at Fortress Monrce that Gen. Foster, with a considerable terce, had advanced to Washington, North Carolina, and had met with considerable re- sistance by the rebels. A flag of truce boat that lately returned to Fortress Monroe from City Point broughtdown 44 exchanged prisoners trom Richmend, and fourteen officers who had been held in close confinement, but were finally exchanged for rebel officers whom Gen. Dix held in charze. Among these officers was Col. Stewart, of the 2d Indiana cavalry, whom the rebels had sen- tenced to be hung. Col. Stewartsays that he saw from his prison window in Richmond a bread riot, in which several thonsand women took part. Gu.z, clubs and stones were used. They broke ope. ihe government warehouses, entered private stores, txking bread, clothing and whatever they desired. The militia were called out to check the riot, but failed to do so. Jefferson Davis and other prominentrebel officials finally mude speeches to the starving rioters, and by large promises pacified them. The other officers confirm the statement of Col. Stewart.
