The Situation.

Tho situation of military mnttors in South
Caroline is wrapped in mystery imponctrab'O to
the kon of human experience. Knowing moth,
ing, and bsing able to learn nothing reliable, it
is vain for as to attempt to tell any thing concern
ing the affair. Wo will not repeat the thousand
rumors that reach our ears. Suffice it to say that
Sherman, with his whole army, is in.the heart Of
South carolne; and the universal opinion in
those parts, is that he is mnrchipg upon colum-
bia or Kingsyille. Our owns opinion is that
unless he retracss his stsps, tho day of his dis
comfitusc is near at hand.
