NIw YoRK, April sth.-The Herald's
special says, Hancock with infantry, artil.

the 9Th. The troops were we'll supplied
for long march.
The Worlds Washington special says,
letter from Goldsboro', &Ih,- says Sherman
had not yet moved. The army had, how
ever, been fully supplied, with clothing and
provisions and were ready for any emer-
gency. An interview with Wade Thomp.
son, under flag of truce, had taken place
but for what purpose was not known.
Johnston's main force was about twelve
miles northwest of Goldsboro'. There
we're no indications, however, that he in.
tended to make a stand there.
The HerAld's Washington special says,
the rebel Gen. Darlington arrived there and
through a written order from President
Lincoln, had an interview with the Score.
tary Of War.
The Times City Point special says the
Southside railroad is being constructed at
the rate of six or seven miles day, and is
already used to carry supplies to our army
in the field.
The Times Richmond correspondent says
the destruction of property there will
amount to tens eff millions of dollars. 1t
is positively asserted that Breckenridge
gave the order to start the fire.
Nail Communication with City Point was
to be established at once. The city is per.
fect'y quiet, and the conduct of our troops
admirable.
The Tribune's Richmond correspondent,
says:
When Davis received Lees dispatch in

The Late John n Daniel OF the Rich
mOnd Examiner.
The following obituary notice of John
N. Daniel, the leading editor in rebeldom,
and one of the ablest writers for the news
pepper press in this oonntFy, is taken from
the last issue of his paper that ever ap.
peared, viz: Friday, the 31st ult. On
Thursday, the sOth ult., Daniel died. On
Monday following his newspaper Office was
burned to the ground:
'Mr. Daniel was the eldest son of DR..
John MoDcure Daniel, of Sta ford, (uephew
of Mr.. Justice Daniel, of the United States
Supreme Court and from his frequent al
lusiens to his father 10 his opinions, his
taste, and the course of reading be recon-
merded to his son, it is evident that DR..
Daniel must have been man of very supe.
rior requirements and character. From
this parent Mr.. Daniel derived most of bis
early instruction; and as he afterward be
came very close student, and also availed
himself to the very uttermost of his oppor-
tunities during an. eight years. residence
in Italy, 1t is. not surprising that he be.
came, as he certainly was, one of the most
accomplished scholars on this continent.
1t will probably excite no Jealousy amongst
the GoDfraterDity of Confederate Journalists
TO affirm that John M. Daniel was the pride
and ornament of the Southern press. he
has fallen in his harness, and at a gloomv
moment in the gallant struggle of bis
country. Yet if be had lived but a few
weeks longer, it is probable his eyes would
have been. gladdeued by brighter DAYS
The very morning of his death agony dawn
ed upon great Confederate victory; the
turning point in our fortunes has perhaps
been reached; and if it be decreed that the
Oonfederacy is to be free and potent, hon
ored amongst the nations of the world.
there is no human agency to which we
shall owe that result more than that of
John Moncure Daniel"

Interesting from Richmond.

| WASHINGTON, April 5.-The Richmond
Wing of Thursday evening says: The
transition from enormous prices and q de.
precIated currency to reasonable rates and
real money, has come 30 suddenly upon
the citizens that it will be some time be.
tore they can properly realize the change.
Butter was scarce at $25 a pound, and is
now plenty at 30 and go cents. Eggs that
were laid away at $25 per dozen are now
80 cents, and other commodities at an
equal rate.
On Monday morning, pending the ex.
citement and confusion growing out of the
evacuation by the Confederates, the $50
conVicts in the State penitentiary managed
to effect their escape, but on Thursday over
100 were recaptured and returned to
prison.
Military Governor Shipley has author
lHed a detail of colOred men to clear away
the ruins of the great FIRE, 30 as to expose
the broken gas pipes.
Suffers stores are springing up all over
the business paris of the city left BY the
ire. Old times are being revived bv a
sight of the substantials and luxuries en-
joyed before the war.
We understand from Gen. Ripley that no
difficulty now exists in regard to mail com.
muniCation by citizens with their friends
in the Northern States and all sections
within the Uuion. All letters must be
stamped with the legitimate postage. A
mail is made up daily, g1ing by steamer
via City Point, Fortress Monroe and An

Burned by Rebels-Afairs in Front
of Mobile.

New YoRK, April s.-The Herald's
Nstchez correspondent of the 3lst says:
The steamer Mark R. Chek, with $50
bales of cotton, was burned at the mouth
of Buffalo bayou, it is supposed by the
rebels.
Several xpeditious have lately went on
of NatoheE, one of which, under General
Frazier, met with important success in the
vicinity of Trinity, where rebel camp was
surprised, 80 prisoners captured and 40
horses taken in camp.
The Herald's correspondent from the
front of Mobile, of the Oath, says:
The whole of Gen. Grauger's corps ar.
rived at Danby's Mills on the ga On the
evening Ofthe Gath the 18th corps received
orders to march the next morning, which
was received with three cheers by the
troops. The 18th corps, together with
Gen. Candy and staff, were to go with
them.
This correspondent states an incident of
military etiquette seldom occurring In this
war. At least regiment of cavalry were
sent out on Reconnaissance and soon met
nearly 20 rebel cavalry situated on a knoll
short distance in advance. The officers
in command of our men gave orders not to
fire if it could be possibly avoided, and
they continued advancing towards the reb-
els, who probably had received the same
order. When within 100 yards they stood
looking at each other in amazement, and
after few seconds the commanding officer
of the rebels rode boldly forward and ga .
luted our men, Determined not to be ont
done, several of our officers rode forward
and returned the salute. Both commands
then rode off.

What's the use talkin'P

WE have time aud again alluded to the
want of reliable connection in the morn

a week-Dot ofteUer. The chances are
that any one going ever to Bridgeport with

this TO see some steps taken which would
have insured remedy. But apparently
we are as far from such contamination az
ever.
There are but two ways known to US by
which the annoyance can be effectually
and reliably aboIiehed-and they are these:
Either train down on this eide to Ben.

the Central Ohio train on the other side 10

us best would be train down on this side
from the Baltimore depot. Cannot such an
arrangement be made2 Complaints of the
present miserable and discreditable gap
between this city and Bellair are many and
bitter. One chief cause of complaint is the
delay in the mails. The bags from the
Post Office here tor the towns along the
Central Ohio and it's connections, lie over

great deal Ofbad feeling. But there is nj
