Soldiers arriving, report, that Johnston fought
Sherman with success on the 12th and 19th,
whe'n Sher.man entrenched. On the 20th and
21st, heavy skirmiishing occurred,, and -on the
2Ist Johnston fell back seven miles to avoid a
flank movement Pf Sherman's.
Gei'. Elliot, of this State, was wounded in the
-battle of the 19th inst.

We are ,indebted to an intelligent soldier for
the following. He says that on the Bulletin
board at Charlotie, he saw a disp-tch urdr Gen.
* Lee's signat*' stating that he had attacked and
taken three lines of Grant's works on the Appo
tomax, with a loss on our side of 750 in killed
and wounded; but bad subsequently to give'
them up, the works *beirjg under aV enfilading
fire. Many prisoners were taken, los of enemy

Served him Right.
We understand that the man Metts, who was
banged on Monday, at Frog Level, hailed from
Lexington, but, was originally from Georgia. lie
is said to have been quite^ Iuesperate and 'had
-committed many outrages in the .neighborhood
:m' which he'was 4ken; also as having been con
spicuou% in leadhig the Yankees through Lexing
ton. At the,time, of capture three were in capu,
one escaped, being shot at, the other was turne'd
over to military authority.

"What's the news?" asked we of a friend on
* the street the 'ether morning. His reply was as

Columbia, and the "Phoanix."
We have received the 1st, 2d and 3d copies of
Mr. Selb.y's paper, which has arisen Phonii like
-from the ashes of poor, devoted Columbia. The
drst number contains an intere'sting article on
- ' ' the capture anid sack of Columbia, also a severe
and no doubt merited critique uipon the remno'al
of Gen. Johnston. A list of the owners and oc
cupanta of houses destroyed.
Columbia had a population of 20,000 souls
when eaptured-mostly women, children andg
groes. 'lie scenes that-occurred in that doomed
~city are in'describable, almost everythiag atro
cious, vile and satanic was perpetrated. The
accumulation of riches had made Columbia a
cenge of wnaIth. Young women of family were
sent in nainbers from other thregened sections
to a city deemed secure. But alas! almost in one
instant, beautiful Colunibia, with her ."temples
and palaces, her. shrines of art and. industry,"
her~ seats of learning, her beauty, wealth and re
finement,is now laid in ashes.' But with her
* . unsullied robes she can once- more raise her
splenSlid portals.
S.We learxx th.t there was enough food in Co
-lumibiato have suifficed that city five years. About
'twelve hundred watches were stolen.
The city is already beginning to arise, they
are advertising in their tri-weekly press, for lum
ber, opening schools, auction sales, brass foun
dries, etc.
The 'PhoniQ is published by 'Mr. Jhian A.
Se'lby, a practical printer of skill and enecrgy, at

Morris and - St. Philip streets schools are over
flowing, and o-day the -Nforma4*cbool, the Free

in Ashley street, will be opened. Mrs. Col. Bee
cher, sister-in-law of 'Rev. Henry Ward Beecher,
and of Mrs. Stowe, author of 'Uncle Tomn's Ca
bit," is.actirg as- principal of the Morris street
school. Father Braay, a Catholic" clergyman, is
giving free lectures on Botany, to teachers and
others, in thie Normal school in the afternoons.
CHARITIEs-2,000 have been contributed. by
Northern dealers for the poor of Charleston.
The Navy.off Charleston contributed $2,000 ;o
the people in Columbia, and the army 'would con
tribute -a like imount.
Prcs-Beef is 25 cents per lb., pork 30 cts.,
and bass $1,40 to $2.
Negroes continue to be enlisted and drilled
at Savannah. A large number of blacks were
sent a few days ago from that city to Cuba to
be sold as slaves on the plantations on that
Island.
An advertisement in the Charleston Courier
calls on the whites in that city to form a reg
itnent 'under Col. Uearvy. An editorial article
asserts that the ca) is bei6g filled by those
loyal young men of that city who remained Af
ter its occupation by the Yankces.

In entering upon the campaign about to
oten,the General-in-Chief feels amsuia Chafthe
soldiers who, have so long and so nobljborne
the hardships and dangers of the war, require
no exhortation to respond tothecalls of hoir
and tity.
With the liberty transmittod by their fa
thers they have ir.hei-ited the spirit to defend
it.
The choice between 'NTar and abject sub
mission is before them.
To such a proposal brave men, with arms in w
their hnds, can h-ive but Ode answer.
They cann'ot barter maihood for peace,.nor
the right of self-govertnent for life or prOper

But justice to them requires a sterner ad- *

'-A last opportunity is offerod.- them to wipe
out the disgrace and.,escape the punishinent
of their crimes.
By authority of the President of the.Cn
