He has filled the responsible office of Agent for South Carolina Troops in Virginia, with honor to himself and his State, "while his uniform kindness has endeared him to every soldier.-with whom ho camo in contact. lie is now at his homo in Greenville. * .' ?-:-<*? ' ? Hegro Troops. The call, under Act of Congress' placing negroes in tho army as soldiers, is being nobly responded to by Virginia. Shs has borne the burthen of this cruel war far four long years; fvova her fertile fields -boaa^iul supplies have been gathered to feed our army, contesting upon hcr"?nH for the cause of truth and liberty f her beautiful capitol has been sacked, ruined and passed into the hrfndd of our focsAhor fair women, who have bceu ungels of mercy toour brothers from every section pfthc sunny South, havo been left to endure the indigni? ties and insults of a-barbarous foe; but her man? hood and patriotic dovotiou rises far abovo every reverse, and she cheerfully briugs forward her negro men, to be used as our authorities may deem proper; for the best interests of our country, and alre?ay-Tk-livr,-? number have been mustered into service. 7' wc hope whenjhc call is made jipuu South Qaro-' liha,'that she will nobly and oheerfuUy. respond From the accounts given of the oDnduct of the ne? groes in this State ^rhcrc Shbiuiar passed through we have no hesitatiou, in saying, that it would be greatly to tlie interests of the individual .owner of slaves to put them iu tho army rather than permit them to pass into the hands of the'Yttukccs. Montgomery. From "tho Macon Confederacy, wo aro informed that Montgomery was captured, on. the I2lh of ^pril. v -. Gen. Formst h?* done everything fhaicouhihc dono to check the enemy, b?! for want of men, has been wholly uuablo to do so. ' Tho force of the enemy in ?c?trftt Alabama, J8 estimated at twentyrfive . thousand men, fifteen, thousand of wlnm are mounted infantrv. 1'hc.force which Advanced against Selma, was estimated at nine thousand mounted infantry, whilo Gen. Fobkest had for its defence, only seventeen hundred men, seven hundred of whom were cap tnrccb. The"latest news from the same source^'represents considerable fighing going on at Mobile. Great apprehensions arc felt in regard to the situation or Mobile, as it is by no means certain that the gar-, risen can sustain itself during a' p; olractcd siege, with the -nmnber of non-combatants now .in the city who^must draw heavily on the subsistence sup? plies. If Mobile should be given up, our forces will most probably go in-thc direction of Meridian, and doubtless have a long, tiresome, and hazardous march. -*-, , Oar Dnty. ?In the darknesss of trial and reverse, it well be? comes a people struggling for liberty and independ? ence, lo inquire the pathway of duty. For four long and sorrowful years this war has raged with increasing fury, and perhaps our skies have never been darker than to-day." Many of our fair citiesj in one continued succession, hav? recently fallen into .the hands of our enemy?our "country, in nuioy places has been over-run and everything destroyed?thousands of helpless women and chil? dren have been- lefthomeless and- penniless upon the'eotd C.H&rities of the world, while in the future we can see no hope of any speedy termination of this unholy war, or cessation of that -suffering which so many of our people have N endured at tho hands, of our enemy. It is true that the greater part of our men have Wen, iff the front and have fought nobly for our cause; in every contest add? ing new lustre to the glory of our-armB, notwith? standing, the demoralizing iufluence exerted over them by many of tho people at home, whoso prin? cipal service for the country has consisted in earn? est efforts to, dispirit and dishearten our soldiers. In some few instances those efforts have been em ceseful, andiiave caused the soldier after three long years of hardship and dangor, to bury the proud ensign of his honorand desert his country. Should 6uch things continue to exist ? Is it right for those who have avoided the contest of arms, to disheart? en those who have endured every hardship and braved every danger ? No ! No ! Let every pat? riot in this time of trial, look, speak and act hope? fully and cheerfully for his country. A? that we hold Sacred or esteem dear in this world is involv? ed in P"3 Wi an(* to us is left no alternative but to fight it otnl-or voluntarily surrender everything for which a-freeman should live, and make our? selves the slavesof our^?vtny." To retreat, with ns, is more dangerous"than to advance, and it will bo far better for u> to exhaust every resource than permit the foe to enslave us. _ If every city and towfc in tho entire land shall pass under their destroying hah!l, still, we may be free if we only will it so. Our soldiers majr act badly?our generals may commit glaring and se blunders?the Executive may bo guilty.of Tho Situation." From the l.itost aud most reliable informatio;? which vre have been enabled to gather, wo are in? duced to.bclieve that Gen. Joonstox Las withdrawn [from Siiiiibi.vs's front between Raleigh atfil Golds boro, aud that ho ha3 evacuated Raleigh "and fallen back in the direction and perhaps to Ilills borough, on tho North Carolina Central Railroad. If this be true, it leaves exposed to our enemies a great portion of the old North State, and opens an extensive field of operation.to the base party in |" North-Carolina vrho have used1 every effort to dis? grace the State, and'destroy our cause since the commencement of Uns bloody struggle. From GcnrLEE's army wo absolutely hoax- noth XBgi Iiis last position was at. Farmvillo, on the South Side Railroad; running from Petersburg to Lynchburg and about twenty-five miles from Bnrko villc the junction of the South Side and Danville Railroad, ami in Uio* direction of Lynchhurg.? GR.1-nt was pursuing and heavy fighting v,-as going on, on the G:h inst. No particulars. We know nothing of the future movtmonts of ? this veteran army, but of one thing wo may rest assured: Its line of retreat will not be in this di? rection. The Carolinas'in their impoverished con? dition could uot possibly sustain it. We may there? fore fairly assume that there is considerable plau? sibility in the theory which assigns Tennessee and Kentucky as the HcW theatre of its brilliant opera? tions during the spring and summer, irith Nash? ville osan objective poiut. Whether tue citizens of thesa States aro' willing to welcomo us back among them as brothers again,?whether they aro. wiP.ing to lay aside Uie yoke of boudnge and sp pressicn, and rally around the Confederate ban? ner, work but the salvation of thoif'doivn-trodden States, and bear a strong haptf^in achieving the independence and liberty of/this?.Confederacy, ai'-ij ijucstions wiiiea yetreiurtfn to. 1$answered, B<j Gen. Lee's plans for tjie- sunrmer whatever they may, ?aWfi&^LtwsSt'ccrtain ?iat Virginia for the present"is'to fall irito tho p'ossessiori cf her foes. How sad to loose- her! It is recorded iu Roman j-story that there.was a Virginia, whose life was ta? ken by her father's hand, to save her from the power, pollution und shame of a tyrant., flerfather iu striking the fatal blow, exclaimed, "Go frec"and pur? to thy mother and thy-nncestors.:i Her blood did not flow in vain. It redeemed, th} freedom of | Rome. Future historians will proudly record a Virginia, who to save herself and Hei sisters from j oppression and tyranny, nobly bared her bosom to the sword. Blood, richer than Roman, has poured from her veins, and lives more precious than Rome had to give, have been cheerfully offered by her. Rather than submit-to Disgrace and bondage, she has been willing to die with tho simple benedic? tion, " Go free and pure." Her blood and trea? sure has been a costly sacrifice for liberty and in? dependence ; shall independence be lost or liberty uptrnv,ed 'I Our future deeds must answer. Our enemies can never conquer us unless our spirits arc first subctuod. -,?-? The Fight at Ashvillo We have been furnished with the flowing par? ticulars of (ho fight at A^lJ^lle, North.

Confederates lost two wounded,"while tho Federals are reported to have lost three or four' wounded. Night with its mantle of darkness, put an cud to tho lloodg scenes of" the ??rd contested field.

"0 For the Intelligencer. William Tecumsch Sherman. Tho parents ot tho individual whose name heads this article, . in selecting for their'offspriug the name of*TcouM3EU, may almost be said to have possessed the gift of prescience, for so-completely has he outstripped his illustrious protc-tj-pe in !be art of savage warfare, that the latter may now be "fairly ranked as a model of civilized humanity. In the lcttcrrcccntly published over the signature ofthcRev'd. La whence 'O'Connell, containing a.| graphic account of the atrocities committed during the sack of Columbia, by tiro robber band under the leadership of this modern Attilla ; we think a slight act of unintentional injustice has been meted out to SnuitMAN in assiguing to him a sub? ordinate position in the scale cf infamy to the oue so long occupied by the world renowned Beast Butler. Conceding it however, tc be true, for it is so stated in ths Rev'd .gcnilcman'i tetter, that while SHerman occupied Colnmbia ho did repress the perpetration of thoeo darker crimes to which allusion is made, ia the letter in question, and for which due credit is therein accorded him?still it is nevertheless equally true, that at other places along the line of his track of desolation, tho com? mission of those crimes, so fn.r from having been repressed, were actually perpetrated upon several occasions without any attempt at restraint. Be that however as it may, on one point at kast, there can hardly exist a difference of opinion, namely, in addition to the epithet of Incendiary with which the Rev'd. gentleman has so appropriately, stigma tried hira, even handed justice demands, that we should not withhold from him two other equally well earned epithets, namely, Burglar and Thief. With three such incoutestjblo titles tq,ignominy, and withal so meritoriously earned; super-added to which, three others equally incontestible, name? ly, Braggart, Liar and GoiObru; wo think Sher? man fairly entitled to contest the palm of infamy with his renowned compeer the Beasi. Thus ex? hibiting to the.world another specimen_of a Yan? kee moral] monstrosity, "To paint a moral or adorn a talc." ? FIAT JUSTITIA. -: JOS?"

Among many, ^cre that Charlotte had fallen into Stoncniuji's hands, and that lie was marching on Chester, tearing up the railroad as he came along. This io ;:ot believed. It is supposed now that Stoucmah has not reached Charlotte yet, nor has it been evacuated. The rumbr that Gen. Lee has been captured is entirely unfounded, and' it is believed to be ? lie of the enemy's. - -o-1 Northern News. Gen. Sherman was at the late council of | war before llichmond. Gen. Cook has been assigned to the I command of cavalry in Grant's arm}'-. The Heralcl is'sangulne that "the war will soou be over." .

Sherman has the railroad repaired be? tween "Wilmington and Goldsboro. A large .amount of railroad stock was captured at Wilmington. Lincoln has published a proclamation of amnesty to all Yankee dosorters who return to' their commands before the 10th -of May next.
