THE VIGOUR OF YOUTH RESTORED IN
FOUR WEEKS by Dr. RICORD'S ESSENCE OF
LIFE.
This wonderful agent will restore manhood to the most
shattered constitution, whether arising from self-pollution,
excesses, nocturnal emissions, the effects of climate, or natu-
ral causes. The time required to cure the most inveterate,
case is four weeks ; and, if used according to the printed in-
structions (which are very simple), failure is impossible.
This life-restoring remedy should be taken by all about to
marry, as its effects are permanent. It is acknowledged by
the medical press to be the greatest discovery ever made.
Success in every case is as certain as that water quenches
thirst.
Dr. Ricord's Essence of Life is sold in cases, with full In-
gtructions for use, at lis., or four quantities in one for 335.,

NoVolk .Daybook of the 14th ult. says :—" A
rumour reached this city yesterday by passengers
from Suffolk that the enemy had taken possession
of Edenton and also of Plymouth. Later in the day
it was rumoured that a couple of the enemy's vessels
had proceeded on a reconnaissance as far as Cole-
rane."

• The-editor of the Petersburgh (Virginia) Express
has received a letter from Suffolk, dated the 13th of

February, which says that Edenton and Hertford
have been captured. Five gunboats moved slowly
to the wharf at Edenton yesterday and landed
their troops. Very soon afterwards 15 more gun-

boats arrived, The citizens raised the white flag

Between 3,000 and 4,000 troops landed at Edenton.
The population of Edenton is about 2,000, and is
distant from Suffolk about 50 miles. In the after-
noon two gunboats went up the Sheran River to-
wards Winton, and several others towards the
mouth of the Roanoke.

Hartford, the capital of Perquimans county, was
taken by the Federals yesterday.
The Boston papers of the 15th inst. say :
" Despatches from Port Royal state that a con-
siderable amount of cotton is still to be found scat-
tered about in small quantities on Edisto Island.

The negroes are desirous of being armed, and of
making an attack on Rockville.
" The attack on Fort Donelson has begun. Our
forces have surrounded it upon all sides by land,
and the gunboats have dismounted three of their
river guns. At last accounts the battle was going on
vigorously; but if the fort is not surrendered, it
will be stormed in two days more. _ .

" An order in relation to State prisoners has been
issued from the War Department. After reciting
the condition in which the Government was caught

at the outbreaking of the rebellion, being entirely
off its guard, and paralysed by treason in high
places, and the extraordinary powers exercised by
the President for the promotion of the public
safety, it goes on to say that in view Of the present
more favourable aspect of affairs all State prisoners
will be released on parole on signing a promise not

to give aid and comfort to the rebels. The Secretary,
however, reserves the right to withhold this privi-
lege from persons imprisoned as spies of the rebels."
A special despatch to the Tribune, dated Camp
.2n the Field, near Fort Donelson, Feb. 30, 12.30,
says—
." Fort Donelson is invested by our troops. Our
lines are formed from right to left, and from north
to south, nearly surrounding the fort. Heavy can-
nonading and skirmishing have been going on since
half-past seven o'clock this morning, but little can be
learnt of its result. General 111‘Lernard's division
is operating on the right wing, and General Smith's
on the left. We have had but one gunboat to play
upon the fort until just within the last half-hour,
since when the other gunboats have been firing on
the fort. The force estimated to be within the
breastworks, from the best information, is about
15,000."

A later despatch of the same paper says :
" The cannonading and skirmishing have con-
tinued briskly all day, but have lately been
discontinued. A considerable number have been
wounded on both sides. The 25th Indiana,
which rushed boldly up to the entrenchments, had
40 of their number wounded, all slightly. Berger's
sharpshooters have done good service. They kept
several of the enemy's guns idle by picking off the
cannoneers as fast as they appeared at the guns.
Captain Walker, of the Corondelet, says he has
dismounted three of the rebels' river guns. The
other gunboats had not arrived up to 6 p.m. The
rifle shots and grape have been flying thick and
fast about here all day. The rebel Generals Pil-
low, Floyd, Buckner, and Johnston are said to be

here."
A special despatch in the .Republican, dated Fort
Donelson, Feb. 14, says :
" Up to this time our loss is about 25 killed and
250 wounded. The right wing of our army rested
within 60 yards of the rebel redoubts ; the enemy
has been driven one mile. Twenty rebels were
killed in skirmishes. A desperate advance was
was made on one redoubt by the 17th and 49th
Illinois Regiments, under Colonel Morrison, of the
latter Regiment. They made two gallant charges,
getting close to the enemy's breastworks, but were
obliged to retire in both instances under a heavy
cross-fire of heavy artillery and infantry. Both
regiments suffered considerably. Colonel Morrison
was severely wounded while very near the ram-
parts."
In the Senate on the 12th of February the Bill

appropriating nearly 7,000,000 dole. for the comple-
tion of fortifications was passed. The Senate Finance
Committee's amendments, restoring the clause mak-
ing the interest on the public debt payable in coin,
was adopted. An amendment, that the Treasury
notes issued in July be received in payment of pub-
lic dues, was adopted. An amendment, setting
apart the proceeds of the public lands and confis-
cated property and duties on imported goods as a
special fund for the payment of the interest of the
debt in bonds and notes of the United States, and
for a sinking fund, was adopted, as was the amend-
ment striking out the provision that the notes be
exchanged for bonds bearing 7 per cent. interest.
The schooner Hart, of Liverpool, was captured
off Florida on the 30th ult. She was endeavouring
to run the blockade, and had a cargo of Enfield
rifles and ammunition, valued at 1,000,000.

" The steamship City of Baltimore also sailed

A telegram from Louisville, Kentucky, says :
