1t is understood that Secretary McCul.

and that Gen Terry has formed junction
with our forces there; also that Gen. Sher.
man was expected N the rear of the rebels
at Goldsboro, on the 18th or 18th.

NEwBERS, March l3th.-Yesterday the
enemy fell back across the Neuse river,
after burning the bridge on that stream; it
Is also reported that they also burned a
rebel ram at the same time, which was
guarding the bridge. Timber is now going
forward to rebuild the bridge.
The railroad is completed TO within a
short distance of the river opposite Kins,on.
and the enemy will not be able to remain
IN kInston long, even if they decide to
make another stand, of which there is much
doubt Deserters and refugees continue to
come into our lines.
The enemy suffered most owing to their
repeated charges on our works, in which
they were rePulsed each time With severe
loss. Our troops stood their ground mau
fully, and are in high spirits over the PROS
Pect of meeting Sherman sooR.
Gen. Sherman has opened Commuuica

he is all right and marching on. We ex

him in few days. Gen. Page, of the San.

he has also collected list of the killed and
wounded, which will be sent on for pubii
cation. Gen. SchOfeld spent the Sabbath

B4-AN occasional peep into the Freight
Depot of the Baltimore L Ohio Railroad is
well calculated to surprise those who are
not frequent visitors. And if the beholder
is possessed of ordinary reasoning facul-
ties, he cannot fail to be impressed with the
wonderful wealth and resources of these
United States of America, and the magui-
tude of the army now in the field, to defend
snd preserve Our nationality. Sacks of corn
and oats, bales of hay, and barrels of -four,
piled up to the very roof, occupy the whole
length of the platform, and disappear at
night to be replaced by SIS large quantities
the following day, all Tor tie army, whose
capacity to consume seems to be only
equslled by the never ending supply
Verify this is a great country, and we are
great people, and have great may oals,
and much corn, IL big army, plenty OF hard
tack and other psIatable luxuries, good
railroads to transport the same, and plenty
of greenbacks to pay the fiddler; and by the
way, said greeubacks are also good insti
tuition.

BALTIMORE, March l4-Capt. Mcdonald
of the light ship at Smiths Point, who was
captured nearly year since by the rebels
has just returned home after a long i'm
prisonment at Salisbury, N. C. He fully
confirms the previous accounts of the hor.
rors of rebel prisons. He learned from one
OF the corporals who had charge of tbe
matter that from the 18th of October to the
lst of January, 1915 of our men died ont of
10. 900 Imprisoned here.
He says the physicians of Salisbury vol.

and showed evident sympathy for the suf'

eating that they were in heart loyaIisls.

with scarce rag to cover their naked

wretched work shops, which were used "a
hospitals; sometimes little straw or other
litter was obtained tor the sick, but such
was the accumulation of filth aud the want
otnourtshiUg food, that death was the oulv
relief for the sick. Thousands of our man
dying of hunger lay out night after night,
without shelter and nearly naked, through
biting frost5 add cold rain.
In the language of Capt. Mcdonald, the
horrors of the place can never be written,
and scarcely be credited when read.

N5H ADvERRIsB, says the newspaper
man. Butteriug your own bread, replies
the merchant and manufacturer. We plead
guilty to the soft impeachment, and yet
we claim that the judicious advertiser re-
alizes more profit from his investment
in the columns of we'll conducted news.
paper than from any similar amount of
money expended in any way whatever.
The merchant pays an agent thousand
dollars year to travel over district of
country frequently less than a hundred
miles square, to sell his goods; less than
half sum expended by merchant who
Knows how to get up an advertisement
will sell him, to say the least, as many
goods, and he will save his money. We
claim that our assertion will hold good
with respect to wholesale merchants, but is
specially applicable to retail merchants
Take our own town, and without reference
advertisement, promising, gifts, &c., with
every purchase, let every merchant ask
himself why it is that strangers can come
and sell out stock of regular trade goods
in few weeks or months right under the
noses of our own established merchants2
1t is certainly not from their peculiarly
affable manners; our own merchants can
not be excelled in that. 1t is not because
their goods are the best in the market our
own are as good and often better.
The simple key to the matter is, they
advertise, and they know how to do it,
They don't hold few dollars in their hands
and look at it lovingly, and wonder if they'll
get their money back again if they pay it
out for an advertisement. They advertise
their specialities; people go to look at them
and buy them as something nowhere else
to be found, and are surprised afterwards
to find that every merchant in the city has
plenty of the very same, yet they didn't
know it. Alb! there's the rub. These
same strangers, in business run of three
or six months, have paid to this Office more
money than any three of our regular adj
vertisers did in year, and counted it the
best investment they could make. They
sold goods proportionatelY.
Some merchants like other people follow
the beaten track of their ancestors, who
made snug little fortunes of twenty or thir-
ty thousand dollars, and they never adver-
tised. Mercy on their stiugy souls. We
can tell such people that there are plenty of
men that have made their two or three
hundred thousand dollars with half the toll
of these non. advertisers and have retired to
enjoy it, and In making their money they
have spent more money in advertising than
three generations of these non. advertisers
in life long effort have been able to &C.
cumulate.
We think that facts gathered from BUSH
ness men who have tested the virtue of
judicious advertising to the fullest extent,
will bear us out in saying that no class of
men render better quid pro quo for the
patronage they receive than the newspaper
publishers.
