march on the turkies, chickens, sweet potatoes
and other good things of the richest part of

losses would not exceed 5000, and that very
few were killed.

The Fortress Monroe correspondent OF the
Associated Press, under date OF The 18th. has
"a The special dispatch steamer Eliza Hancock
arrived This morning from Hilton Head, with
Mai. Anderson, bearer of important dispatch
es from Gems. Sherman and Foster.
The news by the Hancock is of the most
encouraging character. The vanguard of
Shermansi army succeeded in reaching with
safety, and very little loss to his main army,
The outskirts OF Savannah on the 18Th INST,
and on the 14th Gen. Sherman completely in
vested the city, hemming in and cutting OFF
from all means of escape Hardee's army OF 49,
600 men. Should the place not be Immediate
ly surrendered, a regular Siege will at once De
prosecuted with,vigor. haabi S 10
Secure lines OF communication have been
opened between the army of Sherman and
that of Foster, and on the 18th the TWO Gen
erals dined togetheEa at Fort McAllister
No doubt is entertained at Hilton Head that
Savannah must speedily fall, and when that
takes place the attention OF Sherman will, in
all probability, be turned towards Charleston,
The Hancock passed off New Inlet, n. c.,
the expeditionary feet under command of
Gen. Butler and Commodore Porter, which
sailed from here some days since, and also
spoke the steamer Amanda Winants, forty
miles southwark of Cape Hatteras, bound
south. All well.

arrived in this harbor this morning, after q
very quick and successful passage from New
York. = r-gz-s s,~~ss,s ~ 4-aza

s WASHINGTON, Dec. II. sa
A letter from City Point dated yesterday,
says Richmond papers report nothing of i'm
portance from Georgia.
The Wing and Examiner contain extracts
from Augusta and Charleston papers of the
9th. r wsq &
From several reports received it would ap-
pear that Sherman's forces were pretty well
scattered apart, having developed near ia,
yannah, while another was fifty miles removed
crossing the Savannah river. Some of the
rebel papers are ofthe opinion that junction
between Sherman's, Fosters and Dahleren's
forces win be attempted. They say nothing
relative to the burning of the Pocataligo
Bridge.

THIRD LEcrURE-INDEPENDE COURSE.
Rev Dr.+Storrs Of Brooklyn, N. Y, win de-
liver the third lecture this evening in City
Hall. The public may expect splendid lee
ture from DR.. Storrs. he Is man Of high
culture, an excellent scholar, profound
thinker and an eloquent speaker. We have
not ascertained what his subject is, but our
readers may be assured that it will be an inter-
esting one and handled in fine style. We ex-
pect to see our hall crowded in every part.
DR.. Storrs has never lectured to Portland
audience, and we judge from the character
and reputation Of the speaker that our spacious
hall will not hold all who are DESTROYS of hear
ing him, therefore prudence suggests the me-
cessity of procuring tickets before dinner is
eaten. -4 ts Faqr s. a4a .rt
