FORTRESS MooRoE, Feb. 24-lO P. 81.
Gen. U. s. Grant, City Point:
Our troops entered Wilmington on the
morning of the 22d.
After the evacuation of Fort Anderson,
Gen. Schofield directed Gen. Cox to follow its
garrison towards Wilmington, while Gen.
Terry followed Hoke on the east side Of the
river. The latter took up a new line four
miles from Wilmington, but was SO hotly
pressed by Terry that he could send no troops
10 the west side.
On that side the rebels made stand behind
a creek, but on the Goth Cox crossed his
troops below them on fatboats, and attacked
them in the rear and routed them, taking two
guns and 300 prisoners. On the 2lst Cox
pushed on to Brumarck river, opposite Will
miugtoD, where the bridges were on fire.
On his arrival the rebels began burning
cotton and resin in the city, and left it that
night. Our captures, including Fort Ander-
son, amount to about 700 prisoners and thirty
guns. Citizens stated that the rebels burned
1000 bales of cotton and $4,000 barrels of
resin. The Union feeling showed itself quite
strongly in the city. Terry has followed Hoke

A Whisperfnp Gallery

The one in st. Paul's Church, London, is
annually visited by thousands Of Americans,
few if any of whom are aware that one equally
curious and wonderful exists in this country.
1t is in the cold South Church" at Newbury-
port, MasSachuSetts-the discovery of which
was accidental. The negro pews were in the
back part of the gallery, and an old negro
woman sitting in the west corner of the house
many years ago, overheard the conversation
Of some boys in the east corner, who inter-
rupted her devotions by their thoughtless
words when their minds should have been
upon divine subjects. She was alarmed by
the whispering she heard, for which she could
not account; and fearing that the Evil One
had something to do with it, she stated what
she knew, which led to the discovery. 1t is
most perfect The distance must be some
thing like $50 feet, yet the tick of watch can
be heard very distinctly, and whisper sounds
as from a person close behind you.
