From Con. Sherman.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 23.-The Evening
Telegraph has the following special dis.
patch. 20
wAsnnsrOS, Feb. 28.-The Richmond
papers of Tuesday say that Sherman is
pushing rapidly north for Charlotte, Sal
isbury, Greensboro and Danville, and from
thence to Grant, to join in an attack on
Richmond. Unless Sherman is checked
he cannot be stopped at ali.
A telegram from Goldsboro' of the 10th
inst, says: A Union force has set out from
Newbern for Tarboro to cut the railroad
from Wilmington to Richmond. and that
another force were moving upon the south
side of the Neuse river to cut the same
road. A Yankee force is also reported
moving east from Tennessee, to join Sher.
man in his march North.
The whole tone of the rebel papers is de-
spondent.
In the rebel House of Representatives,
on Monday, a bill was passed to arm $50, :.
900 negroes. The same bill would pass
the, Senate, in secret session, on Tuesday.
Information received here, coming from
rebel sources, is to the effect that Will
mingtOn was occupied by our forces on
Sunday last, the rebels moving towards
Raleigh.

Interesting from Richmond Papers.

EEw YoAK, Feb. 23.-Cutler's bobbir
factory at Patterson, N. j., was, burned
last night. Loss $1,000.
The Richmond Dispatch of the 2lst SAYS,
on Thursday night, Lthe 18th, our forces
evacuated Charleston. 1t is believed the
enemy took possession next day. Many
guns must have been abandoned, but it is
consoling to know the Yankees got little
else. There was no cotton to gladden.
Lincoln's heart, and the city itself was
little better than deserted ruin. Several
telegraph operators of northern birth, re-
manned to receive the Yankees. The eVacu-
alton OF Charleston should rather inspire
cheertulness than gloom. Sherman can
only be checked by immediate concentra-
ton IN front, of all our troops, both in
North and South Carolina. If this is done
and his present expedition is broken, he
can be prevented from reaching Richmond.
We know that Shermaen has four full
coTps and strong force OF cavalry, each
corps numbering not less than 1200O.-
Alter mentioning the fact that two columns
were marching from Newbern to cut the
wilmington and DanYille railroad, the
Dispatch says, We fear that there is much
truth In the statement that the enemy has
Deeu concentrating at Newbern.
IL IS reported that large cavalry force
is advancing on Salisbury, from East
tennessee, but it Is not credited.

Grant congratulates himself on holding
Lee here while Sherman is turned loose in
the south.
Rosser and Lomax have been confirmed
Major Generals of Cavalry.
The Wing says:
Every thing is quiet on the south side Of
the James river. Grant is evidently anx.
iously awaiting the result of Shefman's
bold adventure.
The same paper says the War Depart.
ment could furnish us nothing on the sub.
ject. 1t is generally believed that Charles.
ton, the cradle of secession, the very nest of
the rebellion, has been evacuated by our
troops.
Sherman by his bold advance has thus
accomplished without bloodshed what Du.
pont, Dahlgren, Gilmore and COMPANY
have vainly attempted, though aided by the
combined naval force of Yankeedom, This
ill tated or rather remnant of it will soon
experience to its full extent the mercy and
magnanimity of Yankee rule.
The Mercury moved it's quarters several
weeks ago in anticipation of this sad result.
GoldSboro, Feb. ia Yankee force
from Newbern, 5000 strong, have passed
through Greenville. When last heard
from they were advancing on Tarboro. It
Is thought to be mere raid. Gen. Baker
is after them.
Another party are reported coming up
the south side of the Neuse, but this needs
confirmation. No trouble is anticipated.

wTHB BOARD OF SUpRRvrsoRs

RB The BOARD OF SUPERv1soRs.-It
will be recOllected that the Board of Super.
visors levied the late $500 bounty to sol
diers provided each sub-district shall
raise a sufficient amount of money to pay
an extra b-district bounty of $4,000
Recently it was discovered that the recruits
could be obtained for less amount of
money than was contemplated by the or.
der, and a considerable number of recruits
were procured for 500 extra bounty and
many for the county bounty of $500 alone,
In view of this fact majority of the Board
met yesterday morning and virtually re.
scinded their action SO far as related to the
5000 extra bounty. This action appears
to have given some dissatisfaction to the
people residing in the country districts who
put in their men at the 5000 and who
claim that the city has put in some of her
men for less money while the country peo
pie have to pay the same amount of tax
on the county levy.

under twelve years of age. The means of
these young lovers of light literature
are generally limited, and confined to badly
used postage currency of the smallest de-
nomination. The purchasers are some
times so eager to procure a story, the title
of which is taking, that they frequently de-
post a Eve cent stamp with the booksel-
Ter, and ask to be. credited with the same
until they can raise the balance Of the
money and take the story away.

ReY-THR Doc GREASE MAN.-Mogt of our

ED7 1HE DOG GREASE MAH.-Most of our
readers have heard of the Dogs Meat Man,
but very few have ever heard of the Dog
Grease Man. We propose to introduce the
public to the latter persousge for the ben
eft of the afflicted. There is mon 10 this
city who has been actually engaged for
some considerable time in rendering dogs
grease which he dispOses of to persons af-
hicted with consumption. This dog grease
when prepared is said to be purer and bet
ter than hogs lard, and isas white as ala.
baster and almost transparent. 1t has
sweet agreeable taste and when one be-
comes accustomed to it's useit is preferred
to the best of butter. Our attention has
been called to the case of gentleman who
was far advancedtin consumption, who has
been cured by the use of this dog lard
The doctors had given him up and had
ceased to administer medicine. His ex-
tremities had grown cold and he could
scarcely move about his own premises
Having heard of the dog grease man and
that the dogs lard had some such proper
ties as are supposed to belong to Cod Liver
Oil, he resorted to its use and in very few
days he WAS vastly improved. He famil.
iarized himself with the process of render
ing the lard, and at once negotiated for
the purchase of several worthless dogs,
which he slaughtered and prepared their
lard for use. For several weeks past he
has used the lard very freely, spreading it
upon his bread in place of butter, aud has
now SO far recovered as to be able to go
about his usual employment We under
stand that other cures quite as astonishing
have been affected by this dog grease, and
we understand that it's use is becoming
quite general among those afflicted with
the fatal maIady of consumption.
