Yesterday the enemy received sudden check
in their removal of stores by rail from Freder-
icksburg, our artillery having opened upon them,
disabling locomotive and deiaining the train
upon the track near the depot The rebels.
however, continue to remove flour, grain, tobae-
co, cotton, DC, by means Of wagons. Since our
evacuation ofFredericksburg OF last spring the reb-
els have shipped large quantities Of grain from
the lower river counties up to that place and
thence removing it by rail TO Richmond.
Last night the enemy built large fires on the
hills beyond fredericksburg, Illuminating the
whole Southern horizon; evidently designing to
deceive as with regard to their realforcs. 1t is
not believed they have large body of troops in
this vicinity, and the impression prevails that
no opposition will be made to our occupation of
the city.
The storm has swollen the streams very much
and rendered the roads almost impossible.

livering lecture on his hobby of SCIENCE
Among his audience was Bill Strothers, a wag
who has habit of suffering that makes even
his dull speeches comcal. In the midst of his
lecture DIR. Fowler was driving away at his OPP
ponents, and exclaimed:
when doctors differ, who shall decide?"
Pausing emphatically, as if waiting for an
answer, Bill broke the silence by crying out
"Ll-leave it TO man of s-s-senser'
The Doctor left off shortly, for the audience

old character. occasionally, ainlu lle slnOke
Of battle, we have waited to US a little breeze
from the far East, bit Of fairy life and ro-
nance worthy
the good old days
OF the Caliph Haroun Alraschid.
The latest advices from China inform us,
through the medium of private letters, of the
unprecedented career in that country. of
young American of this State, who, though
but twenty-nine years of age, has reached po-
sition which reminds one of the dim legends of
Prester John. Here is a brief recountal of the
story of adventure:
About twelve years ago Edward Forester,
country lad, born in Jefferson county in this
State, decided, like great many other boys,
to 60 to sea- His friends opposed the idea,
but, of course, the love of ocean life was too
strong to be resisted, and young Forester join
ed those who Ego down to the sea in ships"
He was successful, and soon became the mate
of whaling ship, though then scarcely beyond
his majority.
In Honolulu Forester made the acquaint-
ance of merchantof Hakodadi, and went with
him to Japan. Here he remained two or three
years engaged in commercial pursuits. Thence
he went to China, where he was taken into the
Imperial service. He became popular both
with the foreigners and native authorities at
Shanghai, and was finally made second in COM
mand to General Ward, in place of Colonel
Murgiven, who was severely wounded in some
recent engagement.
In this capacity the quondam sailor contin-
ued to be much liked, and now enjoys the con-
fidence of all the Mandarins in the province,
and is admitted to their confidence, as well as
to the highest and most exclusive Chinese So
ciety At one time Forester led band of two
hundred men against the rebels, only nine of
them returning, the rest having been all killed.
He has now twenty thousand troops under his
command.
For his services he has been made Manda-
rim of the Blue Button, and his name stands
high in Pexin. His rank obliges him to keep
at least twelve servants. The latest letters re-
ceived from him ito May / state that he is in
command Of the city of Soungkaing; sleeps
with the city keys under his pillow; while not
one of the 100000 inhabitants of the place
not even the highest Mandarin-can enter or
leave without his permission, and at word
from him any individual out of that 100000
may lose his head.
Mr.. Forester enjoys also the friendship of
Admiral Hope General Michel and the other
English and French officers in China. Admit
raj Hope he reports as severely wounded in
recent fight.
On the LIST OF May the English, French and
Imperiaiist troops were preparing to attack
Chingfoo, of which Forester win be made Mil
itary Governor. He predicts the removal or
deposing of the so-called Heavenly Emperor
within year.
Such is the brief and brilliant career in the
East of a genuine specimen of Young Ameri-
ca. The American Mandarin has friends and
relatives living in this city, as well as in the
northern part of the State, who will learn
with establishment and pleasure of his nflu-
ence and power in far-otf lands.-[ New York
