Fall Of COrintll.

The rebels have evacuated Corinth. Our
forces advanced on them on Thursday and
Friday of last week. Most of the rebels
had previously left. They have gone to
one of their "strong positions" which we
trust they will eventually find in the Gulf
of Mexico. Gen. Pope managed to bag
about 1000 of the flying rebels.
The following dispatches tell their own
story:
Camp near Corinth, June 2.

The following has been received from
General Pope:

liant success of the expedition sent out on

secession i'm Manchester.

II appears that the secessionist Of Man
chester caused legal proceedings to be taken
against Henry Z. Miner, Esq, editor of the
Manchester journal, for having knocked
him down. The case was tried last Satur-
day, ard was one of the most exciting
events which has transpired of late in that
vicinity. The Court House was crowded
by persons from all points in that vicinity
The defence was conducted by E. b. Bur-
ton of Manchester, and d. f. Nicholson of
Wallingford.
The facts in the case were these The
person struck, one Marvin Dole, has been,
since the war broke out, an avowed sympa-
thizer with the rebels. He has taken pains
to express his infamous sentiments in the
most offensive manner in the places of pub
lie resort. He had been frequently warm
ed, and once or twice by Miner, to desst
from his blantant treason, or suffer the con-
sequences.

as the following-"I hope that every Fed

South will be shot by the rebels, or struck

Ellsworth just right. l would give five
dollars to build monument for Jackson"

CONFERENCE.-The Report on the
Geology of Vermont not only gains the
hearty approval of the people in the State,
but reflects much credit to the State from
abroad, as will be seen by the following ex-
tract Fl ON a notice of the work which we
copy from the May number Of the Ameri-
can Journal of Science, published under the
direction of Prots. Slliman, Dana, Gray
and Agassiz. ~ These two hand
some, well printed and well illustrated vol
umes are devoted to the calculation of the
Geological structure and economical re-
sources of highly interesting and difficult
region. They constitute very important
work for which all will feel thankful, moi
only TO the excellent biologists whose la
bors are recorded therein, but also to the
people of the State of Vermont TO whose
well-known patriotic spirit and love of ad
vancement science is now indebted for &
valuable and most excellent contribution
Upon the whole we look upon thi,

We had a conversation yesterday with
an intelligent young gentleman who left
Charleston, S. O., on Saturday week He
was a mechanic in that accursed and in
famous city, and was imprisoned for six
months in the Jail for expressing Union
sentiments. He says that great dcsti-
tuition and gloom prevail in Charleston,
business Of all kinds is dead, supplies Of
provision are very scant, and clothing
more so. On the principal mercantile
street there are but tho stores open.
He had on a plain cloth coat for which
he paid a'rty dollars just before he left,
and his entire suit which he had Just
purchased, cest him one hundred amt jo,tJ-
one dollars. II could be bought here in
