EVENING PAPERS,
From Charleston.


NEW YORK, Jan. 80.
lady who left Charleston Jan. llth, gives
gives important information to the Herald
One-half Of the city has been abandoned and
damaged by Gen. Gimore's shells. From the
Battery to Wentworth Street nearly all the
houses are demolished or greatly damaged,
while the earth and pavements are ripped up
in all directions.
All the hotels are SO much damaged as to
be closed, except the Pavilion, which charges
fifteen dollars per day for board. There are
but two boarding houses open which charge
six dollars per day. The Normal school house
is badly damaged and abandoned. The st.
Phillip Street School house is yet untouched,
and the school is held there regularly. The
City Hall has been abandoned, and it, with
the Court House, is badly damaged. St. Mi
chaels Church, in the steeple of which is a
rebel observatory, has been untouched, though
shells explode on all sides of it.
The effects Of the Smelling on Christmas day
were dreadful. A number of people were in
jured, and one lady was killed. The people
were thrown into panic. The Hibernian
Hall is demolished, all the banks and the post
office are damaged, and the newspaper offices
are removed to the extremity of the city.
All articles have reached fabulous prices
The Union sentiment is quite strong and is on
the increase. The treatment of the Union
prisoners is brutal. The CONSUMPTION takes
every man not foreigner or an incapable
There were forty batteries around the city,
and reinforcements of troops were daily ar
irving in large numbers.

wrights, carpenters and shoemakers supply
all the needs of the colony within its own
limits.
As the Village and farms are designed only
for the training Of fugitive slaves into self
supporting laborers, but $40 month are paid
to them in addition TO their rations and quar-
tiers. Those who will not work, must go be-
yond oui lines. Those who will, speedily be-
come qualified for and seek more remuneia-
tive employment elsewhere, making room for
newcomers. An intelligence office has been
forced into the Village by the demand upon it
for laborers and servants. Two hundred ap-
plications were on file last month. One gas
company had asked for hundred men at
large wages, and agreed to keep them for a
year.
As fast as qualified these men are taken into
the employ OF the Government as teamsters
and laborers, and tax of s. month is then
levied upon their liberal wages. This assess
ment yields - the enterprise from the Depart
partment of Washington alone $4,000 a
month. The financial success Of the scheme
is assured. The fund had about 100000 to its
credit in bank in December.
Such is brief sketch of the important ex-
pertinent which has been quietly in progress
on the Arlington Heights for seven months.
For exact and minute details you must await
the report called for by Senator Sumner. The
author and executor Of the plan is Lieutenant
Colonel Elias M. Greene, Chief Quartermaster
of the Department of Washington. Men who
have carefully watched its development are
urging the President 10 establish special
bureau subordinate to the War Department,
whose business shall be to carry this and
other measures for the benefit of the freed
slaves into execution throughout the United
States. IL. w. X.

The Press has never even published the
letter (of Gen. McClelan) which it assails.
That is a kind of "justice" and morality" Pc
cular to ITSELF Argus.
Those who are curious TO see how well the
organ of Portland copperheadism, in the above
four lines yihdicates its christening as the
Lying Argus" have only to look into the
Press Of Oct 18th. The letter referred to-
part Of deep laid and diabolical scheme to
promote the copperhead cause in Pennsylva-
MIA, by sending it over the wires to dende,
gull aud cheat honest men, on the very morn
ing OF the election in that State, that it might
work its mission OF evil and mischief before
any exposure could oyertake it was pub
lished word for word in our columns, as it was
in the columns of all papers having the tele-
graphic dispatches OF that morning. 1t sent
its author down deep among the dead men,
and We are perfectly willing our neighbor
should go down TO keep him company.

NEW YORK, Jan. 80.
The Tribune's Washington dispatch says a
letter from Little Rock, Ark, 18th, says the
convention is composed of most respectable
men from all parts of the State. Some thirty
counties elected delegates. In fifteen of them
they voted without the presence of a single
soldier. Nearly six thousand votes were cast.
They are in session now, and have engrossed
the constitution and made Arkansas free for
ever-thank God! There was only one dis
senting voice, DR.. Jacks, from Helena; he was
in favor Of gradual emancipation. Gen. Steele
has officially recognized the convention.
