WASHINGTON, JAN 90.
The Richmond Enquirer January 18th,
contains the following:
During all yesterday we were without
additional particulars Of the capture of Fort
Fisher, beyond correction ON the time of
the assault, the position having been carried
by the enemy at one o'clock Monday instead
Of ten o'clock Sunday night. The fleet CO.
operated with the land force. Enough is
known, however, to warrant the assumption
that the defence Of the fort was defective in
point Of vigilance. 1t is reasonable TO be-
lieve that the fleet kept UP Mt least frightful
bombardment during the night, and that the
repulse Of the land forces the preceding even
ing satisfied the garrison that no second at
tack would be made until the ensuing day
and that its own safety and strength would
he enhanced by rctreating to the bOmbproofs
or seeking shelter and repose for the night.
| At the hour at which the fort was taken, the
moon was shining brilliantly in the mid
heavens u circumstance which should have
suggested extreme vigilance. The strength
of the position and the fact that Wetzel
one of the ablest engineers Of the federal
army, had pronounced the works imprcgna
bic, would seem to lead to the conclusion
that there was something wrong-as Tho
matter now stands, we will have to be con
tented for a time with the accounts of tho
enemy, unless by some lucky chance some
one or more of the garrison shall have es
capped to throw some substantial light upon
it.
1t is reported that Secretary Seldom will
resign the Secretaryship Of the War Depart
rncnt in few days, and states Major Gen J
G. breckenridge will be appointed to the va
cancy. The delicate condition of Mr.. Sed
don's health is doubtless the cause of hi.
design to be relieved from the position

NEW lOfSk JAN,
Advices by the Fulton from Savannah re-
port that the best of order is maintained in
that city and few soldiers are visible in the
the streets. Trade is limited but prices are
regulated by law. just before leaving At
lan,a the soldiers were paid of and they
spend their money freely III the ir>. opport!l-
nifty One firm disposed OF stock valued
at $1530Oo for 81 900. II is said there is
not as much suffering in Savannah as re-
ported, tor the reason that when Hartiee
evacuated the city and before Sherman took
possession, the citizens entered the, stores
and supplied themselves with good stocks
The wealthy citizens, however, did not join
them in this mid and as n consequence may
now be suffering. 1t was for these, then,
that the subscriptions at the North are be-
ing taken and the movement is very unpoI-
ular among the soldiers. They consider it
as giving aid and comfort to the real enc
mics of the country.

Diseases peculiar to Females such as Amenorr-

Nervous Debility, ETC., successfully treated.
DR.. James long practice in New Orleans, and
the endorsement Of the Medical fraternity, and
the almost entire Southern press, should cow
vince the most skeptical that DIR. James can and
will perform all that he promises.
Dr. james wceld also call the attention espe :
ialfy of those who have privately and improperly
injured themselves in that secret and solitary
habit-which ruins both body and mind, unfit
ting them for both business and society, rroduc-
ing both Constitutional Debility and lmpotency.
The following are some of the sad and melan-
cho!y effects prodnced by early habits Of youth or
sexual xccssess viz: Weakness Of the Back and
Limbs, Pain in the Head, Dimness Of Vision,
Loss Of Muscular Power, Palpitation Of the
Heart, Dyspepsia. Nervousness, 1rritablity,
symptoms of Consumption, DC. Mentally the
fearful effects on the mind are more to be dread

All persons afflicted with any of the above dis
