EeOnOntziIg Coal.

The Scientific american gives the follow
ing useful hints upon this subject, which
are confirmed by every ones experience
who understands the philosophy of coal
fires:
"a good bright fire can be steadily main
tanned with coal, with less trouble than
with any other kind of fuel but not by
raking, poking and piling in green fuel
continually. After breakfast the fire should
be cleared of ashes, if there are any, and
fresh fuel put on to fill the CRATE moderate
ly. Let the oven damper be turned up, so
as to heat it, and leave the small top door
open, more or less, according to the inten-
sity of heat required. In this way air en-
ters over the top of the fire, and maintains
a far better combustion and consequently
greater heat than when the draft hampers
are thrown open. A washing can be done
or ironing accomplished with one-third less
coal than is generally thought necessary to
use. So far as sitting ashes for the cinders
they contain is concerned, it is hopeless to
expect much change. Hundreds of poor
families in cities live of of the waste of
their improvident neighbors, and in this
way there is something used which would
otherwise be lost; but it seems to US that
charity should be practieed in different
and more positive manner. If the proverb
be true that charity begins a. home, then
we have a still stronger argument against
the wssteful practice Cinders will burn
admirably in small cylinder stoves, and
should d1or Be. Every shovel fulf saved Is Z q
shovel full of coal put in the cellar, and
hint to the wise is enough on this point"

FROM HOOPS ARMH-

New WORK, Nov. %.
The latest intelligence represents Gen
eral Hood with two corps, numbering
about $4,000 men. to be stili in the vicinity
Of Florence, Alabama, on the Tennessee
River.
There are reports that Colonel Dick
Taylor has joined him with an additional
force of 10000.
His latest movements do not indicate an
intention of early offensive operations.
Beauregard, with the rebel General
Stewards Corps was still at Corinth when
last heard from.
General Thomas designs to check Hoods
advance, and is rapidly concentrating his
forces, as though disposed to make an At.
tack on the rebels in soma direction.
We now learn that there was only one
building destroyed in JohnsonYille, Ten
nessee. -.a
The place is still held by division of
Union troops.
The rebel General Breckinridge is sus-
pected Of desire to march from East
Tennessee on an expedition into Ken
tueky, and General Burbridge is making
rapid dispositions of his forces to prevept
the movement.

The HsraLGs Washington special saws
Advices received here today from General
Sherman's army show that he was, on The
18th inst, within thirty miles of Macon
and it Is believed thar by this time
he has gained possession Of the place. He
has thus far met with but little opposition
and his campaign is progressing with all
the success that could be desired.
The Times Washington special saws:
The latest intelligence from Sherman
reports him within twenty-five miles of
Macon. His march was unopposed. We
may therefore look for the announcement Of
the capture Of that place any hour.
Macon is one hundred and four miles
from Atlanta and one Of the centers of
the great railroad system Of Georgia. II
also contains an extensive Arsenal and
cap factory.
Its capture viii form the first of the
series of brilliant results to be hoped for
from Sherman's grand campaign.

FROM PHILADELPHIA.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. %.
The Inquirer's Army of the James let
ter says:
The most important news at this point
is the intelligence, brought by deserteB
last night and this morning, that Early,
with large force, has arrived at Rich
mond, and now lies between the city and
General Buffers lines.
Some regard this fact as an indication
of the concentration of troops preparatory
to an attack on our position by the enemy.
probably precautionary sffSSs8H sOGPpSder t 1t It
part of the enemy, dictated by the ap-
prehension of the grand combined attack
by the armies operating against Richmond,
in probable conjunction with the feet in
the James river. Another class suppose
Early is on mis- way to the South to meet
Sherman, or else that he has come here to
replace other troops sent from this point
on the errand just named.
Dessrters who report the presence of
this force, say that the opinion is preva-
lent among Earlys men that they are go
ing to North Carolina. One of these de-
serters is very intelligent Irishman, for
merly resident of Brooklyn, but has
lived for several years in Savannah, Geor-
gia. He states that a very wide spread
feeling OF dissatisfaction and discomfort
prevails in the ranks of the rebel army,
and says that the number OF
desertions would be much larger than it is,
only the men lack pluck to make an effort
to escape, while many are deferred by the
belief that they would be placed in the
ranks Of our army and exposed to the
danger Of recspture, attended by the pun
ishment of death for deserting TO the
enemy.

WASHINGTON, NOV rs. -
About fifty deserters from our army
have arrived at City Point from the VAL
ley. They were captured by Sheridan in
his last campaign.
The larger number of them were sub
stitutes, who, having deserted and joined
thsrebel army, were sent to the Shenan-
doah Valley, where there is less danger of
being identified, if captured.
A court martial, with General Collins at
the head, has been ordered to convene at
City Point to try them.
The heavy rain storm that has prevailed
in that quarter for four days is over.

There is nothing later from the Shenan-

contest with Sheridan for its possession.
The Worlds Washington special says:
Officers who arrived here to-day from
the front OF Petersburgh, state that the
enemy shows no signs Of svscuating Pc
tersburgh. On the contrary, they have
resumed picket firing in most animated
manner.
No demonstration has been made by
them since they captured small portion
of our picket line in front of Butler which
they still hold.

SHERMAN HEARD FEUM.
WASHINGTON. Nov. %.
The Republican Of this evening has the
following:
We are permitted to announce that the
Richmond papers of yesterday morning
contain dispatches from Macon, stating
that on Sunday last General Sherman was
withing eighteen miles Of that place, and
marching upon the city.
It Is believed in high military circ es
that before this time Macon has fallen.
Information considered reliable has been
received, which states that the city was
only garrisoned y Georgia militia, com
posed chiefly of old men and boys, and
that no attempt would be made to defend
it against our army, fearing that its des-
truction would follow.
No reports from Richmond papers hav-
ing been received to-day, the inference Is
conhrmatory of the above possibility.
The published account Of conversation
between Mr.. Sew srd and Visconnt Trul-
hardt of the French legation, hrs no found
alton, in fact, Viscount Trulhardt has not
been in Washington for eight months past:
1t is understood that he is now Secretary OF
the French legation at Brussels.
No conversation of the character referred
to was he'd with any person.
No appointments of district judgesbipi
in Indiana, Missouri or Delaware will not
be filed until the meeting Of Congress:
A convention CT delegates from the var.
