Referring to General Shepm =~: he Joarnal says:++We shall not be —" surprised to hear of a retrogya*- m0vement on his part; in- deed, w- fear he wall maweone. Detaiis of soe above hews are contraband, and the public must be patient, with the assurance that all is going on well.” The Greensbdero’ Patriot of the 2d says Sher- man left no torces at all in Colambia, and it understands that his troops did very little damage to private property. The old Capitol building was burned, the fire originating from the shells which were thrown atthe new Uapi- tol. Railread communication is now open to Colombia, and those of the c:tizens who fled on Sherman’s approach are returning to their bomes. The Charlotte Bulletin of the 28th says: +. Everything we hear tends to increase our confidence and lift our hopes ont of the quag- mire of doubtin which, for several weeks, they have been buried. « Our authorities are alive to the emergenes> and although the task Wefore them ie furcn- lean, we believe that success will reward its etion.” borat na > War News. Tt {#rom me Richmond Whig, March 7 } Since the newspapers, in compliance with a reqnestof the military authorities, have sus- pended the publication of war news, the people have become more eager than before tor mformation from localities of active opera- tions. All sorts of rumors are put in circulation, amplified, contradicted and reasserted, untii a perfect muddle prevails, and nobody knows whether events are progressing satisfactorily or adversely. The usual sources of informa- tion—the newspaper—are looked to in vain, and the existing uncertainty must therefore continue until the military importance of re- ticence has passed by, or been qualified by de- yelopments. When that time arrives the press will, we presume, be promptly noftfied. in order that it may resume its vocation of fur- nishing the public with trustworthy informa- tion from the seats of war. In the meantime, ifanything of interesttran- spires which can be published, we are confi- dent that our intelligent Secretary of War will cause the news to be promptly communicated to the press, Sensation Reports from Fayetteville, N.C. From the Richmond Examiner, March 6.) bere were two notable reports yesterday from Fayetteville, North Carolina. One—a tele- giam—stated that there had been fighting at Oberaw, in which Sherman was defeated or in- vested, and was retiring towards Charleston A verbal version of this. brought by a rail- read passenger, was that the affair at Cheraw was one of cavalry, in which Hampton had thrashed Kilpatrick. The other piece of news, dated Fayetteville, was that a supposed commissioner trom Eng- land—Hon. Thomas Connelly, member of the British Parliament—was there en route for Pichmond. Mr. Connelly is member frort Donte. tn the House of Commons, and we Know Of NO ren-nw +, at other designs in the Conmberacos:, he has any an ordinary tourist. Crisis at Richmend maely Approaching. {From the Danville Register. } The,crisis of the waris rapidly approach- ing. Inashorttime heavy and perhaps de- cisive battles will be fought. Indeed, the more knowing persons are of opinion that Grant intends to commence 4 general Ga ie ment in a few days by assaniting Gen. ‘8 right in the vicinity of Petersburg, and on our side all the usual precautions have been taken for any emergency. We are assured that it does not enter into the plan of our General- in-chief to abandon the Capital. On the con- trary, he means to hold it to the last, and will surrender it only when it becomes impossible to hold the city longer. For our part we haye no fear about Grant being repulsed whenever he chooses to make an attack. As to Sherman, it is difficult to make out his programme. We suppose he will be governed by cirenmstances. ow that Charleston and Wilmington have been evacuated and their garrisons set loose to operate in the field, i would seem that Johnston might now collec quite a formidable force to check the raid o° Sherman through Carolina. If Johuson can keep Sherman at bay, we need have no fear of Grant. The Augusta Constitutionalist, February 27 says of Sherman’s visit to Columbia. S.C. But tew, if any, private residences were en- tered. If any outrages were committed on the ladies it isnot Known. The enemy were un- der strict discipline and orders during their march througn the city. Shercan’s headquar- ters, when in the city, were at the residence of Mr. Planton Duncan. The enemy’s forces, when near the city, camped between Gran- burg and the OBarloite depot. Itis estimated that Sherman’s infantry and artillery number about 70,000, He hes no cavalry with him. The enemy entered the town on Friday after. noon. The rearguard passed through Tues- day afternoon. The troops were in the best cendition—they were well clothed and well shod. They marched as if they had just start- ed on their expedition, instead of having been out for weeks. Fort Mott, St. Matthews, and lion Court House have been destroyed. Some of Sherman’s officers said that his destination was Raleigh and Salisbury. The General him- self, itis stated, appeared in good spirits, and seemed to be confident of success. As the troops left Columbia one corps took the road to Camden and Florence, another corps to Winnsboro’, and Sherman, with two corps, moved on the direct road to Charlotte. The Richmond Sentinel of March 7 cracks the whip at the “submissionists” of the South, and Eays: «Let no one imagine that the few poltroons, with beards on, who are whipped without ever having been in a fight, are samples of our pop- lation, Itis ashame, indeed, that these-miser- aAhle tremblers sre allowed to vex the patience and tire the ear with the exhibitions of their disgracaful cowardice; but we protest against judging others by them. We protest against the jncging of Richmond by these whipped croakers, titled and untitled. We wish our women would take their broomsticks and drive them into the river.” The Baltimore Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church.

The funeral of Cardinal Wiseman took place in London on the 23d ult., and was attended with great pomp. Many distinguished men took part in the proceedings, and the proces- sion to the cemetery was three miles in length. Atareform meeting in London, composed of delegates from the varions trades unions, & re- form Jeague was formed upon the basis of mavhood, suffrage and vote by ballot. An attempted performance by the Brothers Davenport at Leeds had again resulted ina row, and their cabinet was smashed to atoms.

TSERIBLE SHOW STORMS IN SOOTLAND,— Scotiand it appears, has been enowed nuder for several weeks, euch a winter has not been seen since 1$37. A correspondent writing from Banftebire, s: «We are now in the seventh week of this protracted and increasing snow storm, without the faintest indications of @. favorable change. On the contrary, new falls of snow are almost of daily occurrence, along with keen and se- vere frost. Trade of all kinds is suffering & depression more or less, aud the prosecutivn of outdoor work is entirely out of the question. In some of the upland districts there have been heavy losses amongst the sheep in consequence of the fury of the storm, which buried han- dreds cf the poor auimals before time wi lowed for their removal. On the line of the Higbland road more especially, great numbers of Sheep have perished arsongstthe snow. In all the pastoral districts of Perthshire the sheep tloeks are suffering severely.
