| General SchoGeld's forces which moved Out
from kinston triumphauty entered Goldsbore
on Tuesday evening the 21st instant, meeting
very litttls resistance. They captured large
amount of property including forty railroad
cars, two locomotives, guns, &c,
A portion of General Sherman's force which
moved from Fayetteville, met the enemy on
the same day (Tuesday) at Mount Olive, where
quite an engagement ensucd. The enemy
being overpcuered and fanked retreated in
scufuson towards Ralsis h, while Sherman
enters smthfeld, halfway between G ollsboro
and Raleigh
Gems. Terry, SchoGeld and Sherman are in
hourly communication with each other, and
are pressing the enemy close. The prisoners
taken admit that they are unable to success
fully resist this combination, and that Raleigh
must certainly fall.
Sherman's wagon trains have arrived at
Kinston. The railroads and bridges will be
repaired so that the cars will run through to
Goldsboro and Raleigh from Newborn in a
few days.
The utmost enthusiasm prevails IN our army
and the troops are sweeping all before them
in the shape of an enemy.
Gen Terry's forces also captured number
Of cars at Parsons Depot near Goldsboro.
Many prisoners have been captured and nu-
merous descrters are coming in.
General Sherman reports to General Grant
his operations up to the 22d instant II. had
reached the important and strategic point of
Goldsboro' on the 22d instant. Golsbero'
is about fifty miles from Raleigh, seventy
seven from Weldon, eighty-fve from Will
IIisgton, and one Of the most Important rail-
road centres in the Confederacy. General
Sherman reports that since be left Fayette-
vile he had harm fighting, resulting in very
heavy loss to the enemy ii killed and wounded,
and the capture Of nearly two thousand pris-
oners BY our troops. His own loss he says,
will be covered ho 2, 500 mon since he left
savannah, and many Of these are but slightly
| wounded. Unofficial advlces from kuston
says there has been heavy and continuous
lighting between Sherman and Johnston, bat
no grand battle, the enemy declining gen
eral engagement. All along Shermau's route
of march he had more or less fighting with
the enemy.

THAT oil and water cannot agree has been
proven rather disa:trously at Oil City, where
the flood has foa.ed over forty thousand bar
rels of oil, and damaged the works of the oil
companies to the extent, it is said, of two
millions of dollars. One mischief is the fill
ing up of oil wells with sand and dirt, COM
polling the work of opening to be done again
The snow in that vicinity was two feet deep.
and on Wednesday, Thursday and part OF
Friday it raiued incessantly. This caused the
mischief. Oil City was under water, and
many of the business Offices were carried off
The McClintock and tue Oil City bridge, over
the creek, and the French creek bridge at

were being rowcd across the creek, at one dol
