For the Advertiae-.

Mr.. Enron :-It was my pleasure to attend,
ON the LIT nst an exhibition near Mountain
Creek Church. It was we'll attended BY the fair
sex, as we'll as &. good sprinkle Of boys and old
men. There wore also some soldiers, who par
ticipated in the enjoyment and festivities of the
day. This Academy is conducted by Miss s.
A. SEoo, of EdgeGeld,-who has been employ
cd for several years in the instruction Of children.
She is well qualified for for the educational train
ing of the youthful mind. Her long experience
and talent in the instruction of children, is such
rs to give perfect satisfaction. Why rot the Ia.
dies of the South make US good teachers as any
other? Say, bctter,-fcr they are natives and
understand the customs, usages &C., of our peo-
pie.
The affair xas one of delight, especially to the
patrols of The Schoul. It was astonishing to see
how those little boys and girls could face tho au
dicnco and pass through the ordeal Of the day.
There we're number Of young ladies belonging
to the School, who participated in these exercises,
all of whom did credit to Themselves, their leach
cr, parents, and their country. The young ladies
delivered several select pieces suitable to the oc-
easisn. One on tho "Manassas end Bull-run
fight, the retreat, &C." Another " An Address to
the Soldiers" There were twelve young ladies
participating in these pieces. They had them
arranged so as to make them beautiful. The last
and m ost affecting piece was "The Farewell Ad-
Dress" Hy Miss EslxA W.
At the close Of these exercises, the crowd were
invited to dinner. And nice dinner it was, pre-
pared by the good old matrons of that vicinity.
Ali hearts seemed to enjoy the delicious rePast
Thus the day was spent in social quictuie "made
up of innocence and love-"

The Fighting on Joints Island.
The Courier Of Saturday says:


The enemy, since our last report, has kept
up heavy fire from the monitors and mortar
boats in Stono: upon Battery Pringle. The
latter replied, doing, it is reported, consider
able execution. The effects of our fire from,
the Brooke gun was plainly visible on the
monitors, the latter being compelled to re-
tire behind point OF woods. Skirmishing
on both James and Johns Islands has also
been continuous. The report of casualties in
tho fight of Thursday afternoon, given in our
last, received late at night, was, we are glad
to state greatly exaggerated. Our entire loss
was not over twenty or thirty killed and
wounded. and were principally from Col.
Lipscomb's regimentof dismounted cavalry.
Some twelve wounded were brought to the
city Friday morning.
A Yankee Second Lieutenant, named j. L.
Sprr, of the llth Pennsylvania Regiment,
was brought up badly wounded. He states
that he was en- duty with the 26:h New York
Regiment, and admitted that he had been
fighting with mixed troops Of black and white
3 soldiers: Z
Capt. Deans and Capt. Clarks- two COM
panies Of the ID S. {. Cavalry, are said to
hsvc acted with great spirit and distinguished
gallantry during the action.
The enemy advanced about four miles this
side of Ifaulover. On their way they burnt
Mr. Fripps house. On coming up with our
forces they immediately threw out two lines
Of skirmishers and advanced three times on
our lines, but were as often rcpulsed. The
force of the enemy on Johns Island is es'
tinated at between three and four thousand.
His line of operations appears to be between
Legareville and Haulover. The position they
occupy has always been considered as neutral
ground.
Tie bombardment of FortSumter continues
without iutermission. During Friday. from
eight in the morning 10 six in the evening
two hundred and thirty SHELLS were fred at
the fort.
Twenty eight shells were fired at the city
Heavy firing was still going on in Stono at
the closing Of our report.

FROM GES. FoRREsr's CoMMASD.--From
persons who left North Mississippi on We'd
oesday last, we learn that the forces Of Cen.
Forrest were concentrating at Ripley, Mis-
siss;ppi, in order to meet Washburn, who
was at aud East Of -LaGrange, with force
of eighteen thousand men. 1t was not known
with what force Gen. Forrest would be able
to meet the enemy, though it was felt that a
severe chastiserdent awaited him, as Forrest
does not know the meaning of the word de-
feat. He was dismountine every man who
was not we'll mounted and thoroughly equip.

burn would try to elude Forrest, cross the
Tennessee river at or near Hamburg, and

permit him to pass through the country un.
