The Savannah Daily Herald. BV 8. W. MASON AND CO. SAVANNAH. ~StrRDAY. MARCH 20, 1*65. TIIK IBKAKIIIC SEWS. The untiring vigilance of our special cor respondent at Port Royal, and liis acquaint ance with certain persons who are always very useful to know', enabled him to transmit to ub yesterday, in time for the issue of on “ Extra Herald," the most important trust worthy news which lmn- yet been received from Gen. Sherman since the capture ol Charleston. We have had intelligence, or rather rumors, which showed at times every gleam of cheer, then every shade of gloom stories which occasioned, sometimes sorrow to the friends of the starry flag, and in which, those inimical to the cause of freedom have rejoiced—and, on the other band, we have at times received cheering words which glad dened the souls of those whose sympathies are with the right, and whose clearest hopes, and brightest anticipations, live with the suc cess, or die with the defeat of the Union col umns. Oftentimes have these reports influenced the public feelings and actions to an extent which by far transcended theirintrinsie val ue. It is usurious study for the pschyeolo- j gist to note why, after people have been de- I oeived time and again, they do not grow calous to ‘‘war’s alarms, “ and why they do not, like the villagers in the fable, who had been so often fooled by the cry of “Wolf," become careless and skeptical, and eventually refuse to give heed to the cry of “ Sherman,” “Sherman," which is continually coming up from the country through which he has marched. But, strange to say, every report about Sherman has found its crowd of eager be lievers—no matter to what* end the story might tend—whether it showed Sherman de feated, or Sherman victorious—there was in variably a throng of people who vyere eager to believe. So, we have had Sherman victorious and Sherman beaten —Sherman marching with his army in a grand triumphal procession through the desolate and deserted fields of South Carolina; and then, according to.oth er reports, we have gazed upon a picture of that same Sherman, beaten, routed, driven back, disheartened and discouraged—har rassed in the rear, and tormented in the flank —worried and cut up by flying bands of con federate horsemen at. every cross-road— spiking guns at every {bridge, and burning wagons at every swamp—and in 'short, being compelled to encounter and undergo every possible reverse which could be inflicted up ou his hapless command by a joyful and tri umphant foe. An ye*, much joy as these reports have at times brought to some, and much deep sor row as they have struck to the heart of oth ers, the stories have all, or very nearly all, been utterly false and without foundation. General Sherman has quietly pursued liis self-appointed path, with very little let or hindrance until he reached the points which are mentioned in our exclusive telegraphic report of yesterday. What resistance he there mentioned, and what success he there achieved, will be found shadowed forth in the report of our energet ic telegraphic correspondent, from whom we hope soon to receive still further particulars in full of the behavior, movements and en gagements. Meantime we can assure our readers that our reports of movements thus far, may be relied upon, for they are received from the most trustworthy sources. And we need scarcely add the command that should any thing of importance be received to-day, "it shall be laid before our patrons in au “Extra." Grand Review—A grand review of all the troops at this post, took place at this post yesterday afternoon upon the South Com mon. At about 4 o’clock, the troops,—how many, or of what regiments, it would be im possible to state—took up their positions up on the south side ot the parade grouud. bbortly after. Brer. Major Gen. Grover, ac companied by members of bis staff, entered the field ;md passed along the lines; the ? troops afterwards making the circuit of the common and marching past the General ac cording to the usual programme of reviews, regiments looked and marched splendidly, .. black and white, presenting a handsome sol ■ dierly and formidable appearance. The weather was fine, and. large numbers were present on foot, horseback, and in carriages, to witness the spectacle. At the clbse of the review one of the bands took its place upon the stand in For syth Place and mingled its music with that of tile beautiful fountain, so that, altogether, things wore quite a holiday look on the oc casion. First Provost Court.— Mary Cohen, a white woman, was found drunk and raising n disturbance on Broughton street, Friday evening last. She was yesterday morning committed to jail by Judge Parsons for 15 days. The court will confer a favor on this community by giving Mary free transporta tion out of this Department. There are many of Mary's stripe in town, and they can be spared. Burning The Marsh— At Four-mile Point, last evening, the marsh was all in flames. All who desired a good heed on rabbits and coons,- had a time killing them as they ran from the devouring element. 4 German Fire Cos. No. 10. — This Company of men, organized by a Charter granted by the General Assembly of Georgia, and ap proved Decembel 2d. 1853, has a considera ble history connected with it worthy of i tiou and of being recorded. In the year j 185“., the then Savannah Fire Company hav ing iu charge the exclusive jurisdiction of . the Savannah Fire Department, not approv j lug of certain actions of the City Council toward them, resigned the sacred trust con fided them. It immediately, became neces sary for the people of Savannah to re-organ ize a Fire Department, and Germania soon became a living company, with its ranks well filled. An engine, condemned for many years, made in Liverpool, England, in the year 1819, was assigned them. With this old “machine" they did service ©f value for several years. The “old tub’’ having been run for a long time, it at last became so dis eased in its valves that a consultation of ex perienced ‘ professional" men after a careful diagnosis pronounced the patient incurable, and all treatment to restore it was abandon! ed. The company then ordered from New York n Hose Carriage, which they run for a long time. Their .funds accumulating by a subscription among their friends, they were successful in obtaining an'engine, and at the present time own their machine. It was made by Smith, New York, and is rated as a first-class machine. The beautiful Hose Carriage now used by them was obtained at the same time. The original First Foreman of the Company, Capt. Jno. J. Waner, and the first officer who served the company, and its father, was killed at the fire on the southwest corner of Barnard and Congress streets. Capt. Waner was in Congress street lane, directing the operations of the Ger mania Engine Company, when a keg of pow der exploded in the store of James Mclntire, which building was on fire. In the pro gress of the fire a brick wall was precipitated upon Capt. Waner. He was removed from the scene of the disaster. Every care was taken of him but he survived only a few hours. The following are the First Foremen who have] served 4 the company since the de mise of Capt. Waner: Anion Borchert, Paul Haller, John Dreyes. (for the unexpir ed term of Foreman Haller,) Len. S. Hart, George Olt, (who served several terms,) Val entine Bosler (served several terms,) Robt. Wagenstein, A. Millhauser, (served unex pired term- of Foreman Wagenstein and nearly one term ©f his own,) John Teigler, (served unexpired term of Foreman Mill hauser). The following are the officers at the present time: First Foreman, Henry Blun; Second Foreman, John Teigler ; Third Foreman, August Schremp ; Secretary, Fer dinand Kolb ; Treasurer, Mathias H. Meyer; Steward, A. Scheideman. Mr. Scheideman is the only original mem ber at the present time on the active list of the company, and on the morning of the ad vent of Sherman’s army into our “Forest City" he promptly hauled up the Flag of our country on the flag staff of the Hall of the company. We cannot close without stating that the Company is anxious to secure a steam fire en gine, and we hope that the powers that be will lake into consideration the claims of this company. Many members arc anxious to give a Dali for the entertainment of all. We wish them all success, for they are true to their motto, “Always Ready.”" The compa ny in good times placed in one of the banks of this city SI4OO, and it has since lain there, drawing seven percent, interest. Had the company this fund at' the present time, they would invest it in the purchase of a steam fire engine. Forestaluno the Market. —Our market is infested at the present time by a set of Shylocks who purchase every egg brought to it at the rate of eighty cents per dozen, aud charge $1 25 tor the same. They also pur chase all chickens that are brought hyoui country people and exposed for sale. Pos sibly these gentry imagine that they can pur sue tiieir persecutions without interference. They will soon, however, ascertain their er rors and pay handsomely for tlio same. The 9tm Cork. B att. Vet. Yogs.—The soldierly bearing of this fine body of men was the them© of praise from all who ob served them as they passed our office yes terday afternoon, proceeding to the South Common for the review. it-Col. Healey has his men under excellent discipline. The music by the. Brass Band of the Battalion was fine. Prof. Strcit is a thorough musician. General Order No. IC.— Judge Walton, of the Second Provost Court, fined three per sons yesterday $5 each, for violation of gene ral order No. HI. Should these offenders occasionally read, they would learn that for having filth on their premises, the Provost Judge is compelled to inflict a line. From the fund arising from flues collected in this city, it is expected that Savannah will soon be furnished with a steam engine. For Hilton Head.— The steamer Sylph will leave the dock foot of Whitaker street this morning at 10 o’clock. Among those who have suffered severely from Sherman’s invasion of South Carolina is William Gilmore -Simms, Esq., the well known novelist and poet. In his hurried re moval from home, near Midway, lie was compelled to leave behind a library of choice books ol much value, embracing*upwards of ten thousand volumes. Many planters have been utterly ruined. Fortunately for Mr. Sunms he has the advantage of carrying his wealth in hw brains, “where no thieves can break through and steal.” &c —Rebelpaper. [From, last evening's Extra.'] Great News from Sherman 1 RENEWED TRIUMPHS OF THE NATIONAL TROOPS. sum eOMBINATIOS. Gen«. Sherman, Terry, and Scho field all together. SEVERE FIGHTING AND LARGE CAPITRES. MOST IMPORTANT NEWS! The following despatches are from our special correspondent at Hilton Head, and as the reader will edtty perceive, they are of great interest at thi^ime. What gives the news a special value to our readers is that it is a private despatch trans mitted exclusively to the Herald. No other paper has the news. Hilton Head, March 25, 18G5. We have glorious tidings from the front.— The various wings of the national army un der Sherman, Schofield and Terry, respec tively have made a successful junction at Goldsboro’, which place is now in federal occupation. The rebel forces under Bragg made a desperate effort on Monday to with stand Schofield’s advance from Iviustou, but were driven back with great slaughter, aud Schofield advanced into Goldsboro’. At the same time Sherman’s forces advancing from Fayetteville, fell upon Johnston’s troops on the south side of Die Neuse on Fall Creek.— An engagement of considerable mag nitude was fought here when the rebels were badly whipped and routed. Sherman then advanced •to Falling Creek Church. Gen. Terry advancing from this place met no enemy in any force, but got in position near Falling Creek Church to sup port Sherman. The battle was over however before he was called upon. His forces at last accounts were lying at Everettsville, eight miles from Goldsboro. The army is now all united and prepared to meet any force. The Rebels have every where given way, but to what point they are retreating is not yet definitely ascertained. Communication is now fully established between this place and the front. We have captured large amounts of rail road rolling stock, cannou,ammunition,small arms, stores, etc. We shall give more de tailed accounts as soon as we get them. In addition to news in Wilmington Herald, we learn from the steamer Beaufort, which bro’t the news, that Slocum had a big fight at Falling Creek Church, in which he repulsed the enemy under Gen’l Bragg. Slocum’s total casualties, 2000. The three armies of Terry, Schofield and Sherman have united ; they have fought successfully the three ar mies of Bragg, Hardee and Johnstou, aud the latter are all in retreat, but to what point we don’t know. We have made great captures of prisoners rail road stock and amunition. 4 M. S. AMUSEMENTS. Savannah Theatre.— An excellent bill was presented last evening, and drew a good house. “ Married Life ” developed the whole force of the company, and was very well received. The entertainment closed with the ever glorious “Toodles.” On Monday night, the Scott and Ryman combination will be audod to the already powerful attractions of the Theatre. They will close the evening’s entertainment with oue of their characteristic divertiseuients, — “Les Miserables.” Let all theatre-goers turn out and give these old favorites a hearty welcome. Sweatsam’s Savannah Varieties. —Mr. W. P- Sweatnam is maturing his plans for open ing his new theatre at St-. Andrews Hail.— The necessary work of repairs aud alteration is in a forward state of progress. The an nouncement of the opening night oi this new place of amusement will be awaited with impatience by Mr. Sweatnaui’s many friends and admirers. Another Slauohter.— We published yes terday an account of the railroad slaughter at Bristol, Pennsylvania. It is the familiar story of gross and criminal negligence. A. conductor moves bis train on at diminished speed, pushing a disabled ire.in before him. He knows that he is out of time, and that an express train is behind him. Ho puts out no signal lights, and takes no precautions. On dashes the express train, and plunges head long into aud through two passenger cars of the forward train; life is lost and limbs arc broken ; and to the horrors of a midnight slaughter, are added the perils of fire aud of steam liissiug hot. A half dozen men are killed; two scores are more or less wounded, and left, as such “accidents” always leave their victims, The loss is almost entirely among furloughed soldiers, who have e&cap ed the danger ot battle aud the slow torture of rebel prisons, only to be slain in sfoht of home. ° bo this wholesale slaughter proceeds one day charged to a broken rail ; another to a rotten sleeper; now chargeable to official neglect to keep track and cars in good order, and then to a stupid and wanton disregard of the simplest dictates of prudence In this case the responsibility seems to be easily as certained, and no possible excuse can be made for so glaring a disregard for human lite. Os course the directors will feel bad and there will be immenso popular imlfona’ tion. Then comes the lull till the eras hot the next “accident ’ breaks the quiet indifferent of the public.— N. }. Com. Arhe-tiser "N? Y ““ 7" —* -■ - - - Case or Kenned*— His Do m A :nocnced to Him—lnteresting Facts in thz Case.— Gen. Dix has not yet fixed the uayforthe execution of the spy and incendiary Robert Cobb Kennedy, alias fcfanton, but will do to as soon as the action of the court-martial has been approved by the Secretary of War. At the conclusion of Kennedy's trial, which was published exclusively in the Times, the court was cleared for deliberation, and alter a Jair and candid consideration of the entire m tier, the. prisoner was found guilty of each charge and specification ; guilty of being a spy, of irregular warfare, and of setting fire, in company with six confederates, to hotels and places of amusement, which were crowd ed with men, women and children. Gen. Dix approved the verdict and adopted the sentence, which was : “That the said Ken nedy siio.il be bung by the neck until he be dead, at such tima and plaqdfe the Coru mandii g-General may direct. On Sunday, Major Bolles, the Judge Advo cate of the department, returned from Bos ton, where be was detained on business con nected with departmental trials, and after the record of the court-martial was shown him, Gen. Dix detailed Capt. Von Eckstein, of his stafi'to proceed to Fort Lafayette and notify Kennedy of the finding of the court. The Captain saw Kennedy in • the room of Col. Burke, and informed him of the result of his trial. He wa3 astonished and surprised at the verdict, and at the sentence. This is partially attributable to his peculiar tempera ment, and partially to the singular deficiency in his logical power. Although bom of a good family, aud sur runded with the possibilities of culture, Ken nedy is almost stupid: aud although possess ed of much of the low cunning so often found in stupid people, is by no means as shrewd as were his confederates in crime. In religion. Kennedy is a materialist, and looks to no point beyond the present life. He re gards this as the end, and in this differs wide ly from Capt. Beale, who was encouraged, consoled and sustained to the very last by a simple, child-like faith in the power of\the Saviour, and the certain ty of a happy future for those who, like him, trusted alone iu omnipotential love. There is no hope in Kennedy’s breast lor a respite or- final favor able interference. From the very first, his counsel, Gen. Stoughton, felt that his case was hopeless ; and when fact after fact and admission of Crime came out, it was resolved into a simple question of time. Kennedy will be kept at Fort Lafayette, in “Room No. 1," next to the guard-house, until next week, when he will be taken to Fort Coiumbus and guarded closely till the day of his death. 11 is customary, singularly to this and all Christian lauds, to hang crimi nals on Friday—a day made memorable in all time by the death of Christ upon the cross, and which one would suppose should ever thereafter be held sacred from other ex ecutions, and, in accordance with that habit, Gen. Dix will probably direct that Mr. Ken nedy be hung on Governor's Island on Friday, a week from the ensuing Friday.. No person can be permitted to see Kenne dy for any purpose whatever, except such friends as he may desire to see, his counsel, clergymen and other officials. Occupation op Columbia, S. C.—lt ap pears that Sherman's army entered Columbia ou Friday afternoon, Feb. 17tli, and the rear guard passed through that town on the fol iowing Tuesday, Feb. 21st, The substance of a conversation between General Sherman and Mayor Goodvviu is given as follows: During the conversation the Mayor re marked that “he thought the resistance made by our troops would be sufficient to induce him (Sherman) to give the place the go-by, as he supposed that all the Federal forces were after Lee’s army, aud that he did not wish to spend lives in attacking places do lended.’’ Sherman replied: “You ought to know that we would not give the ‘go-by’ to so important a place as Columbia.” Anticipated Revolution in Spain.— The Madrid journals are in a state of considerable excitement. After having denounced the pretended plot against the life of the Duke of Victoria, they are now predicting risings, in surrections, and, perhaps, even a revolution. They mention probable assemblages in the provinces, aud military precautions at Mad- “What is taking place?” asks the Pueblo. “What is about to occur ? What is to be feared? It appears to be certain that the garrison of the capital is to be rein forced by two baitalions of infantry. Orders have been given to the sentinels to challenge passers by, and to make them keep at a dis tance. The veteran guards are ordered on duty. Is not all this au echo of the mysteri ous conspiracy of Logrono English paper. A Bit or a Fanatic. —A report has been circulated that a man named Thomas Clemens had matured his plans for the assassination of the President on inauguration day, which had origin in the following facts: “Clemens and another person came from Alexandria Saturday; they were both extremely, disor derly and seemed to have been drinking free ly. Clemens, in particular, was very abusive. He said, using gross and profane language, that he came here to kill the President; that he was late by about half an hour, and that his Savior would not forgive him for tailing to do so; that he would do it that night, namely the sth of. March, and that he came expressly to do it and he would da it before he left town; he furthermore said the gov ernment had robbed him of a certain sum of money. This is the substance of an affidavit. Clemens lias been seat over from the military to the civil authorities; aud committed to jail for trial. The Rebel Ram Stonewall. —A letter from an officer on the Niagara, dated Ferrol Spam, February 18, says the rebel ram stonewall, was in port, lving near enough to tae Niagara to hear her band play “Yankee Doodle.” The Captain of the Stonewall (I age) had asked the Spanish authorities for permission to repair her, as she was leaking badly. Tile Spaniards allowed him to make limited repairs only. He also asked permis sion to leave her In port while he went to Pans, m order to anuul the contract of sale aftd thiow her back on her former owners The Niagara had kept on excellent terms with the authorities, and shqjved them every courtesy, which was reciprocated. The workmen of the navy yard had been with drawn troin the St*>nt:v\ all. Captain Page said his officers and men :< efusod to go to sea m a i ( ' ak vi ,y esse }> which v. oulu be exposed to a fight. Tiie Niagara was ready for the ram and eager to engage her, irrespective ot the odds ot _ wood against iron. She urns in hopes oi having ttie reinforcement of another l uion ship-of-vvar, in which c. ge there could be little doubt of the result of the contest should a fight take place. The German Reformed Measei <rer has ceived a letter from a friend in’ China tvhick it iB stated a great discovery is rotW. ed to have been recently made by a surgeon of the Lnghsh army m China, in the wavnf an effectual cure of small-pox. The mode treatment is as follows: When the pieced mg fever is at its height, end just before the eruption appears, the chest is rubbed with croton oil and tartaric oiritment. This caul es the whole of the eruption to appear mi that part of the body, to the relief of the rest. [lt also secures a full and conrnle e eruption, and thus prevents the disease from attacking the internal organs. This is to be now the established mode of treatment in the Ehglish armv in China, by genera orders, and is regarded as a perfect cure. P. A.M. MASONIC HALL, S.
