R6y-ANoTHER INCIDENT OF THE RAID
UPON New CRERK.-When the lrebs came
into New Creek on Monday last there was
a gentleman at the station who had in his
possession two packages of money, one
containing eight thousand and one contain
ing two thousand dollars. He gave the
eight thousand dollar package to woman
for safe keeping and took to his heels. In
running through the woods, the rebels in
close pursuit-for they invariably ran after
those who attempted to run awsy-he
stumbled and fell down, dropping the re-
maiAing package of money behind a large
rock. Seeing that he was certain to be
captured he did not attempt to pick up the
money, and was soon afterwards seized
and taken away. He subsequently suc-
ceeded in making his escape and returning
to the station found his money still lying
where he had accidentally dropped it. BE
then went after the woman With whom he
had left the more valuable package, but
she could not be found. She had taken
her departure to parts unknown, either
through fear of the rebels or with design
of dsfraudiUg the unlucky gentleman. At
last accounts the gentleman was still in
anxious search of the lady OF whom he
had not been able to find a trace.

~FoUI MUnDEn..Howard Campbell,

~FoUL MURDER.-Howard Campbell,
of Company H, 18th W. Wa. Infantry was
murdered on the 10th ult., by three mem
bers of the Bird Indiana Cavalry, while
serving as safeguard near NewtoWu, Fred
erick county, Va. The cause of the muir
der was this: Some of our cavalry had
been depredating upon the citizens to
rather a shameful extent. One of the
Third Indiana Cavalry on the 9Th happen
ed at the house at which Campbell was
serving as a safeguard, and Campbell in
Weighed in terms of the highest disappro-
baton against the conduct of the soldiers
in maurading the premises of helpless wO-
men and children, observing that he would
prefer bushwhacking to conduct so I'M
soldier-like. The cavalryman did not re-
sent this at the time, but returned the next
day with three comrades of his regiment
and get upon Campbell and shOt him with
revolvers until he fell dead, nine balls
piercing his body. Campbell was an inno-
cent, inoffensive man. The men who COM
mitted the deed are known and will be
dealt with in accordance with military
law. Mr.. Campbell formerly resided in
Taylor county.

NEw YORK, Dec. "A special cores
pondent of the American at Annapolis tel
egraphs the arrival of the steamer Baltic
in Annapolis Roads from Savannah, with
$40 officers. Fifty-seven had died op the
way, and more than two thirds, it is
thought, will never recover.
The latest neWs from Sherman was that
he was within 40 miles OF Savannah. An
Georgia was in alaem. Savannah papers
of the 30th ult, while admitting this, say
his progress has been stopped.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-The Richmond Ex-
aminer of the 30th, says: There is no
worry important news beyond the confrma-
ton of the report that the enemy sent off
| in the direction of the sea coast a small
body of cavalry day before yesterday
They struck the railroad between Savan-
nah and Augusta at Waynesboro, SO miles
| from Augusta, and are said by some, to
have plundered the passenger train there
yesterday. We are informed the expedi-
ton had been intercepted, part OF the raid
ers captured and the rest of them driven
back on Shermsn's main body. The OBJ
ject of his movement is easily seen. This
party were on their way to Beaufort to
carry the intelligence of Sherman's posi-
ton to his government and communicate
his way and plans.
The Richmond Wing of the 30th, says:
From the Southern papers of the 25th, re-
ceived last night, we CLEAN little that is
prudent to publish. The Augusta Consti-
tutionalist is in high spirits.
The Sentinel said it is to be hoped that
the people of the region through which
Sherman proposes to pass, will fling
themselves upon him with courage that
shall do them honor. There is capital
difference between his situation and that
of Hood. He is in an enewy's country
while Hood Is among friends. No ssori-
fee of properly, no activity of opposition
must be counted now, nor considered e1-
cessive to tear down bridges, block the
roads, remove and destroy supplies, cut off
forage and fight at every pass. If Sherman
should be able to accomplish such jour.
ney as he proposes, fOragiug as he goes, it
will be proof that he was not becoming
ly resisted.
The Wing, after stating that it is strict.
ly prohibited from giving public iuforma-
ton concerning Sherman, and says from
all we can see either in the New York
papers or our own, we are clearly of the
opinion that Sherman is making as fast
as he can move for Beaufort, and that his
Interior design is to unite his forces with
Grants. Whether our forces will be able
to stop him or not depends on so many
contingencies that it is impossible to form
an opinion on the subject. That he will
take either Savannah or Charleston or Au-
gusts, we do not tear in the least. II he is
able to take even Macon, it is more than
we believe. Nor do we think that he can
de permanent injury to our communica-
tons, OF that his present object is to at
tempt it. We rather believe that he will
strain every nerve to reach Beaufort. He
will probably destroy the railroad between
Savannah and Charleston as :efectuslly as
possible, but it eau soon be repaired. The
Wing then proceeds to berate JEFF. Davis
for sendiug Hood into Tennessee.

resides some distance in the country, has
besn source of much trouble to the police
of the city for years. Drunkenness is his
normal condition. he is morally certain
to ge. tipsy every time he comes to town
and in this condition he is very hilarious
aud disorderly. He is the "fOuless mouth.
ed man in Christeudom," and therefore
makes himself exceedingly offensive. BE
generally winds up his career in the Gala
boose, and when sobriety returns he goes
home and prepares his system for another
raid upon the town. he was found in the
Market house on Saturday last locked in
the arms of Morpheus, having completely
exhausted hsmself in rearing and charging
about the city, and was picked up and
conveyed to Jail by officer Richardson
1t is due to Mr.. Johnson, to say, that as far
known he has no relatives residing near

mT The ENRoLLMNT LIsTs.-We spoke
on Saturday of the Importance of correct"
ing the enrolment lists in the districts of
this State, but omitted to speak of the ne
glect of persons removing from one SUBJ
district to another to have their names
taken from one and added to the other list.
This is an evil which ought to be correct
ed at once. The man who neglects this
duty throws burden upon those who
ought not to bear it, and he shirks res
possibility that ought to be met manfully.
1t is, in short, little less than disloyal act.
No man has a right to evade his duty to
his country. No loyal man will do it.
All these desirable ends can be effected,
if those concerned will take active meas
ures, at once to aid in the work and it is
work in which all, whether enrolled or not
can aid. The government have right to
expect that all loyal citizens will aid in
this work of correcting and pertecting the
enrolment.
One of the surest means of closing this
Internal rebellion is an active hearty CO.
operation in all plans of the Government,
looking toward a thorough preparation for
war.
While therefore it is to be hoped there
will be no further need of draft, yet Pru-
dence dictates that complete preparation
be made for it, so that if this process of
filling up our armies must be carried on,
we may be prepared to do it, so as to bear
on all as uniformly as possible.
