There is great anxiety am6ng the officers

annoyance. Sherman tUmpelled the rebel
prisoners to point out these pltces. The
line OF investment ar6andf Savannah was
nearly thirty miles long: sin several places
it mas made up Of lakes and swamps, with
only . single line Of pickets.:i, The only APP
proaches the rebels had to OUT lines were by
four roads, as the swamps the time Of the
surrender were flooded. Preparations. were
nearly completed for cutting.of the union
causeway inclosing IIardee' S army. Along
the line heavy artillery was in position, aid
Smelling was about TO commence, when
Sherman told the division commanders that
the first one to enter should be made mill
tary governor Of the post. This fact brought
the troops up as fast as possiRle.s Gen. Har-
dee, at the time Of his escape, opened fire
with his rams, thus covering his, meve-
ments. As soon as his crossing .AyRsx bin
pleted the rams were blown up..e Gsh. Fos-

OF the torpedoes, and returned rs soon as
dispatches were written. The city is uhin-

considerable quantity Of rebel government
property in the city. A thorough search
will be made. The forts for the defense Of
the city prove less formidable than was sup
posed, the principal reliance being pm tor
pedoes and piles. One torpedo boat. and
three small steamboats, were captured. The
people are quiet and well disposed. and it is
reported that there are many. unionists
among them. Officers escaped from rebel
prisons say that they we're concealed. and

Muscovy Peters days for the Car to travel
everywhere with q bed among his luggage.
Nobody dares nowadays to hint that the
bed and bedstead (for the Car travels with
hoth) might be left at home, because the
upholsterer is interested in maintaining that
old custom; the haberdasher who supplies
sheets and counterpanes, the bed makers,
the cabinet maker who "sets up" the bed,
and the chamberlain whose income is swol-
len to decent dimensions by tithes from the
salaries or pay Of all these people, are joint
ly and sevcrally interested in the observance
of this old custom.
