By the Presidents proclamation, appointing

for the country to know just how this step ia the
Of reconstruction" is working
1t IL not believed that the President designed 10
vtaze the entire code Of ancient Mississippi except

understands It, And he has not only revived the Grim
inal and Probate Courts and set up Justices of the
Peace everywhere. of such material as was elected
before tie war; but has even declared valid some OF
the laws enacted by the Rebel Legislature since the
Ordinance of Secession.
The fruit Of this policy is just what should have been
expected The State authorities will subject every.
thing 10 the rule Of State laws They thus bring on
collision with the military, and especially with the
Freedmen's Bureau.

Rebel Accounts from Sherman.

New York, March 6.-The Raleigh IN.
C9 Journal Of the I'd says: AS the train left
Wilmington our Whitworth battery, plant
ed at the head of the market, was firing
upon the enemy, who had appeared upon
the western side of Cape Fear river. Their
main advance was then checked at Alliga-
tor creek. Some few skirmishers pushed
forward, but were driven off. ,.t.t
tits believed that Hapgood's brigade, with
the exception of the 7th battalion, has been
captured. Some accidental cases may have
escaped. They probably have. They were
on the west side of the Cape Fear, the only
troops on that side.
The Richmond Whig of the Sd says: The
Raleigh Conservative alludes to Sherman's
operations and INDUCES the hope that II our
plans are not thwarted, our able Generals
and brave troops in tIiat quarter will be
able to bag him or send him home to the
rear. If the report brought us by telegraph
that the small force left by him at Columbia
has been expelled be true, then the repulse
in 'front.' should he suffer such, would prob
ably render his affairs desperate in the ex-
treme. But we will not speculate further
In regard to matters which must cease to
be matters for mere speculation soon.
The Richmond Dispatch of the Sd says:
Agentleman from Fayetteville 1st inst, says
at that time no Yankees had advanced in
that direction from Wilmington. We have
nothing from Sherman. He is supposed to
be still in the mud of South Carolina.

Sherman's NIOvements-Excha
of Prisoners.

WASHINGTON, March Gan extra Re-
publican, just issued, says: Officers of Gen.
Schofeld's army who arrived here.this morn
ing from Wilmington, state that when they
left that place on the 1st inst, deserters and
refugees who came into our lines that day
reported that Sherman, by flank move.
ment, had compelled the rebels to evacuate
Florence, S. O., and was moving in the di-
reetion of Fayetteville, N. G., which is in a
direct route to either Goldsboro or Raleigh.
Richmond papers of the 2Sth of February
say the Yankee prisoners have all been sent
from camps near this place to Northeast
bridge, for the purpose of being exchanged,
and many others from Greensboro and Sal
isbury, have passed through here for the
same destination. All Federal prisoners in
North Carolina are to be exchanged, we
learn, at Northeast bridge. We presume
the, exchange will be completed in few
days.
The Raleigh Conservative closes an arti-
Gle on Sherman's movement as follows -
But what will be the result of his presen.
expedition time will only determine, and
the people of the whole country await the
news which will solve the problem with in
tense anxiety.
The Richmond Dispatch of the Sd says !:
We have no official intelligence from the
seat of war in the South lately, and tor two
days not even rumor.
Hon. Roger A. Pryor, who has just re-
turned from Northern prison, was in the
city yesterday. He is looking well. 70
The Richmond Examiner of the Sd says !:
There was report yesterday of some firing
on the lines around Richmond, but it is
hardly to be presumed that they were sig
mails of any important action. ...l.

The Celebration i'm New York.

New YORK, March 6.-The spirit of our
people based upon our late victories for the
celebration to-day, received fresh impetus
by the announcement of Sheridan's gallant
exploit. AL feel that the postponement
from Saturday, both on account of the
weather and the additional cause for rejoic-
ing, was judicious and opportune. The
weather to-day is fine. The city is cnvel-
oped in flags. On account of the postpone
ment, the Committee of Arrangements were
enabled to enlarge their scale, and the pro-
gramme was made to embrace many new
features. One of the most imposing dis
plays in the procession was that of the
Singer Sewing Machine manufacturing
company, with their six horse team splen-
didly decorated, drawing trucks, upon
which are erected magnificent pavilions
filled with young ladies operating the Singer
machines in the manufacture of army cloth
ing. On the sides of the pavilions was in
scribed, "We clothe the Union army while
Grant is dressing the rebels" They were
escorted by a full band and 1000 men, en-
ployees of the company.
The procession was of great length.
The military display was fine and the fire
men made an excellent appearance. Other
portions of the parade, including veterans
in carriages, excited much interest. The
procession was about three hours in passing
a given point. The meeting in Union
Square was largely attended. The crowd
in the streets was probably the greatest ev-
er seen in New York
