PROaI NEW YORK..

& YORK, May u.
A special from Cincinnati, dated May
26th, to the Philadelphia Press, says: There
is q large force of rebels at Charlotte, Ten
nessee, near ClaFksViIle, under WoOdman
and Ross. If private advices can be re-
lied upon we shall have stirring news
from Rosecran's army within ten days. 1t
is not improbable that his column is al
ready in motion.
A special to the Post dated Washing
ton, May 9th, says: The city is still
greatly excited over the news from Vieks-
burg. There seems to be not q particle Of
doubt in any quarter that General Grant
will succeed in capturing Vicksburg and
most Of the rebel army there.
Hooker is in town to-day. He speaks
in enthusiastic terms Of Grant and his
success. He states that the rebels on the
Rappahannosk admit they have lost Vicks-
burg.
There seems to be growing impression
that General Lee is meditsting an attack
upon Hooker or an advance in the diree-
ton of Washington. The rebels admit
they must dare uncommon dangers in the
hope Of destroying q army in Virginia,
and Of capturing Washington.
It is regarded as certain that B~euregard
has left Charleston with most Of his forces
for the West OF Virginia. More probably
for the former, though it is possible he has
been ordered to reinforce Lee on the Rap
pshannoek.

HOOP SKIRT MANUFACTORY.-We were
invited yesterday by Messrs. Weiss and
Klein to look through their spacious skeleton
skirt mandatory. On entering a moment
arg shuddsr thrilled through Us, as we
found ourselves surrounded on all sides by
hoops, and we only became treasured when
reflection eams to our aid, with the fact that
there was no one as yet within the mysterious
frame works. There were hoops Of all sizes;
hoops for lady Daniel Lamberts, hoops for
lady Tom Thumbs, hoops sWaying to and fro
with a graceful swagger; hoops tumbied
awkwardly on the floor as though som in
visible fair occupant had stumped her spirit
%ualltoe and had a humpty-dumpty fall. There
were hoops looking squeezed between omni-
bus and car doors hoops caught on nails, and
refusing to be adjusted. We had no idea
that so great a quantity of the rebellious in
situations could be kept peacsably in one
room. Messrs. Weiss and Klein have a ire
mendous stock of the one article. They ex-
pect shortly to be able to furnish from their
mandatory any particular kind OF quality
the customer may desire. We would suggest
to our lady readers the prOpristy of giving
our friends a call. Their quarters ara on su-
perior street, directly in front of the Wsddel
House.

with his mounted infantry returned this
evening, from o trip in the direction Of
McMinnVille, whittier he had gone in
search Of the rebel cavalry under Colonel
Breckenridge
The enemy's pickets were encountered q
short distance beyond Woodbury.. The
firing attracted the rebels in the vicinity,
who collected IN considerable numbers to
annoy and impede our advance. A run

miles.
Twelve miles this side Of McMinnvilIe
our forces came on the camp Of Brecken-
ridges forces, who hastily deeamped.
Colonel Wildes succeeded in capturing
nine prisoners, twenty-five horses, thirty
head Of beef cattle. Having secured the
prisoners and burned the tents and bag
gage, our forces pushed rapidly forward,
diminishing with and driving the enemy
for several miles.

A NEW CHURCH EDIFICE IN PAIEEsvILLE.
"A new Presbyterian church in gainesville
was dedicated yesterday. The edifce is Of
brick, and is quito an ornament to the vii
lage. The work reflects great credit on the
architect, Mr.. S. C.. Porter, Of this city, and
the builders, Henry Blair, who contracted
for the mason work, and Craine, Quirk and
Farris, the ~jOiners. The building, which is
ROmAnesque in style, is 1O6x54 feet in size,
with two towers fanking the front facade,
which give the building a projection of five
feet additional.
The main room is 52x73 feet, and contains
l2S slips. The proper arrangement of vssti-
bules and retiring rooms is cared for. There
is q painted circular window over the preach
er's desk containing a representation of Mo-
sss receiving the Commandments, executed
by Mr.. J. F. Single, an artist of gainesville.
The dedication had been postponed. owing
to the ~non-arrival of the organ, which was
procured in New York at an expense of
$1,000.
The church people of gainesville are clearly
alive to the necessity Of having proper houses
for worship, and contribute no niggardly
sums for that purpose.
