S. steamship Tonawauda arrived here this afternoon from Morchoad City, I\. C. V.'e have additional and interesting naive | from Sherman. In the light on the 2oth q! March previ ously reported in the Herald, the 14th and one other corps were directed to assault s-'me rebel breast work?. The strength of ihe defences were not fully appreciated, and the charge resulted in a severe repulse. We had, according to authentic reports, nearly two thousand and live hundred loss. Our column was repulsed, but the Fifteenth Corps camo up iu time to save the day, and charged vigorously. The Hili and the other forces rallied promptly, and by a combined assault all the rebel lines of works were captured. The 14th corps had lost three pieces of artillery, but they were recaptured with iuterest. The Confederate loss was much greater than ours, and at last accounts a pursuit was kept up oti several different roads, but with out a definite idea of the, destination. Our army is now resting near Goldsboro’, and will probably sooa move. The trip through South Carolina is repre sented by the army as a most agreeable one. Tuey say that in Georgia they felt obliged to observe more respect for persons and pro perty than South Carolina is entitled to. FROM CHARIiKSTON.

Correction.— ln transcribing the list of arrivals from the register ol' the Pulaski House, March 31, the rank of the following named gentlemen was erroneously copied. We make below the desired corrections: Col. L. 3. Blair, SSth I V.3. Capt. Gates, 33d Ohio V. V. I Capt. Roper, SGth lit. Vol. I. Capt. W. Watson, 21st Wis. Vol. I. Lieut. Fred.

An American gentleman lately saved the Emperor N ipoleou and the Empress Eugenie from an accident ca the ice, by warning them away from a dangerous spot. The em peror immediately took the Empress to the carriage, and both thus escaped the accident which happened a few minutes later to the English gentleman and his daughter, who, regardless, of the unsafe state of the lake, although they heard the warning given to the imperial party, would take “one turn more, ’ and were presently plunged up to their waist in the water. The young lady showed true English pluck, and quietly wait ed ti'i • no'«’ '-mild be procured,by winch she was drawn out. It is csuuidieu mat the sugar crop of Ver mont iast spring was 15,000,000 pounds, worth $2,250,000, enough to pay the war ex penses of the State twice over, and have enough left to sweeten the tea besides. ' Union fecetrtr of SaVannae.—ln our city arc many benevolent Societies, and none : more worthy of historical mention than the Irish Union Society. On the evening of the Uth of January, 1847, John Everard, Martin Duggan, Edward Smith, Thomas Dempsey, Philip Kean, Thomas Ford and Jno. L. Martin, assembled at the residence of Mr. John Everard, north side of State, third door east of Whitaker. The meeting was called to order by Mr. Thomas Ford, who was chostu Chairman, and Mr. Martin Duggan Secretary. Immediate steps were taken at J this preliminary meeting for the organization jof the Society. On St. Patrick’s Day, 1847, ' the Society in procession mustering fifty men, proceeded to the Church of St. John the Baptist, where a stirring oration was deliver ed by the Rev. J. F. Kirby, at the present time residing in Augusta. The following are the officers of the Society, serving ou the 17th of March, 1847. President, John Mur phv ; Vice President, Philip Kean; Standard Bearer, Thos. Ford ; Treasurer, John Ever ard ; Secretary, Thomas Dempsey. The Rev. J. F. O’Neil. 5r., was prior to the 18th of March, 1847, present at the prelimin ary meetings held, and was unanimously elected a member andCbaplain of the Socle ty. Father O'Neil still survive%andhis genial couu tenance and pleasant smile is still welcomed among bin friends, who are legion. May his walks in our midst, which are those of a pure Christian, be spared many years more. The Society having made rapid progress, seventy members addressed their respectful petition to the General Assembly of Georgia for incorpo ration. It was granted and approved the 23th of December, 1847, Hon. Geo. W. Towns, Governor. Mr. Murphy as Presi dent, served the Society faithfully until his demise. The office of President was then conferred on Dr. John Riordan, who regard b 39 of ills ill health, fulfilled his duties assi- duously. Hon. D. A. O’Byrne was next called to the Presidential Chair, and through all the heart breaking and tumultuous times of epidemics aud civil war, he has truly earned the name of a good and faithful servant. Ihe roll of the Irish Union Society tor some years before the war, contained oVer one hundred members. It is the earnest de sire of the officers and members to place the Society again on a basis of usefulness, and It is tq be hoped that in this they may be suc cessful. The objects of the Society are pure ly of a benevolent character. We annex the following list of the present board of officers: President, Hon. D. A. O’Byrne; Vice President, Andrew Flatly; Treasurer, P. Naughton; Secretary, Jno. 0. Duggan; Standard Bearer, Stephen Walsh; Doorkeep er, James Halligan ; Steward, Richard O’Byrne.
