- The SUPPER AND FESTIVAL OF TIE
LADIEs' AID SouHTY, last evening, was q
most creditAble affair in all respects. As
We anticipated, most excellent supper
was prepared. and the care and industry
which the ladies manifested to please and
crafty all who attended could only be
prompted by the noble cause in which they
are engaged. The entertainment lasted
until a late hour, and We sincerely hope
that the ladies were rewarded for their
labor by a handsome amount of material
aid. That the Ladies' Aid Society may en-
joy long life of usefulness, is the earnest
prayer of all who attended. The hall was
beautifully and appropriately decorated,
and the best of feeling prevailed through.

SAVANNAH RIVER, GEORGIA Sunday, Novcm.
Der y, lS6i.-We are scarcely less excited here
on the question Of General Sherman's movement
than the Rebels themselves, and we know that
they are stirred as they never have been before at
the boldness Of his advance. The Savannah
journals are not brought to us now until after
they are two days old, for fear that we shall be
too highly cated at the strait in which the Con-
iedgracy finds ITSELF
The last authentic information from the Rebels
tells Us that Sherman is advancing in three
columns, with a force estimated at sixty thou
sand men, at least Ouo-half Of whom were cavalry
and mounted infantry. The puDlic buildings of
Millcdgcyille, the capital of q nOrgia, have been
burned, and the Legislature being IN session at the
time Of Shcrman's advance force entering the
town, Adjourned in confusion, some of the mem
ben paying as high rs one thou aud dollars for
transportation a distance OF u'ght miles You
will be able 10 form an idea Of thc reign of terror
hat now obtains ia Georgia ana South Carolina,
from tho files OF newspapers which | forward.
levy e0 D1dSSe has been ordered, and B3aure-
gard Is in command of the troop.
There seems TO be most perturbation because
Sh,rman has shroudCd his obc, i've point in mys-
terry, by sending Oat immense nnd, Of mounted
men tO rayage the country on the TANKS of his
main columns. On Monday last Inc was at Cor

The county devastated IN La lrOnt, so that he
shall be unable 10 subsist upon it. The roads
have been to great extent ren ,ered impossible
by icllcd trees and pitfalls, and fhe Rebels claim
that during lhe past three day Ile progress Of the
Union troops eastward has u1t exceeded six
miles.
They also claim that their l.l'ry are picking
up large numbers Of our s.r1g. crs, by dashing
upon our rear and anks. From all that / can
learn, / believe ShcIman's main body 10 be within
l2j miles OF Savannah, with nothing 10 oppose
him save the militia and such other unOrganlZcd
forces as the emergency has brought together,

Friday, December q.
The Stock Market opens strong this morning,
in sympathy with the gold rise, and Reading is
in demand at GS, with strong buyers for the
upward movement. In New York, the telegraph
dispatches inform us, there is a sharp rally in all
stocks the Western lshares being especially
firm at rise of per cent.
We have predicted great movement in stocks
in December, and we regard this as the begin
ming. The great ease of money, the disposition
to gamble in stocks, and the near approach of
winter, which viii impede army movements, are
are all looked upon by spectators as 'the happy
time" TO buy.
The Comptroller of the Currency gives notice
that no more new national banks will be autho-
rlqed. but that old State banks can be skill con-
yertgd into national banks.
The Money Market is without change. Loans
on call are freely offered at per cent. per
anuum. Prime paper is scarce aud quoted at
7d@9 per cent.
United states bonds are less active this morn
ing but prices are steady, With sales OF 5'2Os at

The Commissioner of Internal Revenue de-
cideT that real estate passing by inheritance from
husband to wife, or wife to husband, is subject
TO a succession tax Of per cent. upon its clear
value. The groundless impression that the con-
stitutionality of the Special Income Tax is being
tested has delayed It's payment, and subjected
persons TO penalties in some quarters. The reve-
nue. Office has no knowledge Of any suit nor
belief that the consutionality Of the act is any
where questioned.
