DEPREDATIoNs OF THE ENEMY.-During the
recent raid of the enemy towards Goldsborough,
their conduct gratutously evil and wantonly
barbarous They committed outrages which
seemed to have neither nor object, and
which could have no military reason nor justifca-
ton The poor as well as the rich were plundered,
and little objects of female attire, or even of
ehidren's toys, were torn up or burned out Of
mere deviltry.
Many plantations were stripped of servants,
horses, pigs, cattle, meat corn, meal and in fact,
of everything that could either be carried off or
destroyed The number of negroes taken off is
estimated at five six hundred, and all of them
working hands. The negroes on one plantation
visited by the enemy, had their ideas in regard to
Abolition philanthropy rather rudsly broken in
upon. It seems that some of the Yankee officers
were in a room, talking over their plans, and the
negroes got to peeping and listening, aud heard
the Yankees agree among themselves that it would
not be worth while to take any negroes that would
not do to sell. The coored people that plan
tstion took the hint and kept clear of their
"Northern brethren"
With the single exception of the burning of
the Neuse river bridge, the injury to the Whining
ton and Weldon Railroad is very slight, and the
attempted destruction of the track was done In a
most bungling manner Wilmington journal
EXTENSIVE ROBBERY. learn that an ex
tensive robbery has just been discovered in this
city. Several hundred thousand percussion caps,
a large quantity of powder and buckshot and other
munitions have been purloined from the Confede-
rate store by some of the hands engaged on the
premises, and disposed of to merchants and others
We deem it imprudent to give names or particu-
lars at present.-Raleigh Journal.
GREAT PRIZE FIGHT.-A great prize fight
between Mace and King for the championship of
England has recently taken place. Mace was
"knocked out of time" by what is termed in the
account an "Armssrong gun" blow delivered by
King in the twenty-frst round. Heenan and
Sayers were both on the ground. The former, it
is said, did not think very much of either of the
men, and challenged King to fight him for the belt.
IRoN.-Unless our people soon get to making
iron in large quantities, We shall have an iron
famine equal to the salt famine. There is no
difficulty in procuring bountiful supply, if those
who have means will go into the business. No
country on earth is richer in of the finest
qualities than ours. The mountain region OF
North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and
Alabama, abound with iron.

hS- A new kind of gunpowder has been tried
at Frankfort. Its color is yellowish brown, and
in general appearance it resembles sawdust The
inventor is Mr. Shultz, Captain of Artillery in the
Prussian service and he is showing by experiment
that this powder is cheaper, lighter, more power
full than the ordinary sort; moreover, that even
after thirty rounds, the gun remains clean as at
the commencement.
