New YORK, Feb. 91.--The steamship
Fulton, Captain Knowlton, from Port
Royal and Charleston Bar, 18th, ats P.
NJ, arrived this morning. Purser Tom
McManus fusnished us with the follow
ing memoranda:
Charleston was evacuated by the enc
my on the night of the 18th, leaving the
several Notifications uninjured, beside
200 guns which they spiked. The evacu-
alton was frst discovered at Fort Moul-
trie. on the morning of the 18th, at 10
A. H., part of the troops stationed at
James Island, crossed over in boats, and
took possession Of the city without oppo-
sition. The upper part of the city is on
FIRE.
Previous to the enemy evacuating
Charleston, they fired the upper part Of
the city, by which 5000 bales Of cotton
were burned, and it is supposed that
before the ires could be subdued, two
thirds of the city would be destroyed.
Admiral Dahlgreen was the first to
run up to the city, where he arrived at
about 2 o'clock. Gen. Gilmore followed
soon after, and had an interview with
General Schemmifennig. he being the
first General officer in the city, and for
the present in cammand.
The blockade runner Cyrens, just
arrived from Nassau, fell into our hands.
and two others were expected to run in
on the night of the 18th.
The first flag over Sumter was raised
by Capt. Henry NJ. Bragg, Aid-de-csmp,
on Gen. Gilmore's staff.
The remains of two iron clads, were
found, which the enemy destroyed by
blowing them up, previous to the evacu-
alton.
A fearful explosion occurred in the
Wilmington depot (eause unknown), by
which several citizens lost their lives.
The building was used for commissary
purposes, and situated in the upper part
of the city.
Houses in the lower part of the city
were completely riddlsd by our shot and
and shell. The wealthy part of the
population have deserted the city, and
now all that remain are the poorer class.

The Fort Morgan reached Mobile

Several United States iron.clsds and

The Fort Morgan left Key West on

other valuable property were saved.
CAIRO, Feb. 20.--The correspondent
of the New Orleans Times, writing on
board the steamer Rienville, off Calves
ton, on the 9Th. says that large num-
ber of vessels then outside, were load
with cotton. but the weather was so bad
that few were able to secure cargo. The
Bienvillle arrived at New Orleans on the
13th-a severe storm forcing her to leave
Galveston.
The blockade-runner Wren escaped
from our feet into Galveston by flag

Rebel manufactures in Selma are turn
ing out large quantities of munitions of
war. Fortiications extend all around the
place. but are not very formidable.
Most of Hoods army has been sent to
operate against Sherman. They were
nearly naked, dispirited, and had lost all
hopeof a successful resistance to the
Federal troops. Large numbers are
barefooted. It is stated that over 10 900
of Hoods array had their feet frost bitten
during the retreat from Nashville, in
which they suffered more than in the
previous three years.
The Shareholders are greatly dissRtis
fed with the conscription of slaves and
free blacks, for service in the armies, but
the work was actively going on.
Gen. Forrest was collecting force near
Jackson, Mississippi, for Operations, it
is said, against Vicksburg.

Bsauregard Safe Guerrilla Warfare Adoised-
The Yankees Again at Suffolk.
The Richmond Examiner, of the 18th,
says the little army under Beauregard is
yet safe, and may lead Sherman such a
dance as Green did Cornwalls, over the
same rivers and swamps. if the Federal
army can not reach the Danville Road,
then it may as well have staid at Atlanta.
There is reason to believe that Beauregad
is acting with this design, and that
Sherman is near the end of his triumphs
The Richmond Sentinel, of the 18th,
has an article in which it says submis-
sion will not bring peace nor inaugurate
a truce; the rebels will take to the bush,
and cary on guerrilla warfare. 1t is
very severe on submissionists, who ap-
pear to still exist, Notwithstanding the
late firing of TIM Southern heart.
The Petersburg Express says:
1--WE learn that Yankee force, num-
bering about 500, have again occupied
Suffolk, and their pickets extend about
three miles from the town, in the direc-
ton of Blackwater. A rsiding party
went out from Suffolk some days ago,

and rapacisy practiced by the rebels on
their unfortunate csptives Under an
agreement lately entered into, all Union
prisoners now held in the trans Missis-
