An important rumor yesterday, said. to
have originated from high authority, stated
TINT Sherman, with a portion of his com
mand, lad already established comm mica.
ton with the Yankee feet from Genesis
Point. Fighting WAS also reported as still
going on in front Of Savannah Char lSston
Courier, l4ih.
The Charleston Mercury Of the I4tb says,
Prom parties just from Savannah, we
learn that, between one and two o'clock, on
Saturday afternoon, Sherman made three
Distinct charges against our line Of works
at a point about five niles from Savannah,
aud about mid way between the Central
and Gulf railroads. Each time, the Yam
kee assaulting column WAS repuised with
heavy loss. Their nearest approach TO our
for,ifications was within distance OF about
two hundred yuyds.
The railroad bridge over the Savannah
River has not been burned, rs was repor.
ted. The structure burned was the long,
aud important trestle-u ork on the GeorpIa
side Of the Savannah River. We learn that
the bridge over the Ogeehee River has been
destroyed by our troops. IL is believed
that Gen. q. w. Smith il we'll posted on
the other side OF the river, with about 900
troops.
RICHMOND, Dec. I5.-This evenin ngs
Wing says Official information =. ceived tni-
morning states that The ensay stUrosed and
carried Fort McA!ister. Un the Ogecchee,
yesterday.
The Charleston Mercury, of the 18th,
says we have no very full budget Of intel
ligence from Savannah. Sherman seems.
for the present, TO have abandoned the d.
rect attnck on tas city, and appears to be
turning his Attention TO the reduction of
tire 0utworks.
We regret to announce the fall of Fort
Mcaiister. That post vas carried early
Yesterday poTDing by assault, "a which a
heavy column of Sherman's best troops
participated. Ii is believed that the enemy
",ll next make a desperate effort to gain
possession Of Genesis Point
The news given above is perfectly au-
theniic; but We have heard no details of
the assault or of the casualties.
Along le line Of the Charleston and
Savannah railroad all continues quiet,
