The Savannah Daily Herald. WEDNESDAY. APIIIL 3, 166 3. ( ROM oi k evening edition OF YESTERDAY. THE >KVrS. LEE'S OFFICIAL BEPOHT OF THE BATTLE OF THE 23T11. Congratulatory Order 01 Ctu. Meade. By despatches Irorn New York to the 30th, we have further details of the news published in this morning's Hkralp: f*rmAL DESPATCH TO TIIK SAVANNAH DAIi.V HERALD.) New York, March 30, 18<>. r >. On the 2 r >th inst., the Rebels iu front of Peterslmigh sallied out at an early hour in the morning and made a heavy attack upon Fort Steadman. The following is the Con federate account of the affair: rut BATTLE AT FORT STEADMAN —GEKERAL LEE'S OFFICIAL REPORT. March 25—ll:10r. M. At daylight this morning Geueral Gordon assaulted aud carried the enemy's works at hill, capturing nine pieces of artillery, eight mortars, aud between live and six hundred prisoners—among them one brigadier-gen era!, and a number of officers of lower grades. The linos were swept for a distance of four or live hundred yards to the right and left, and two efforts were made to recover the captured works, which were handsomely repulsed ; but it was found that the inclosed works in the rear, commanding the enemy’s main line, could only be taken at a terrible sacrifice of life, and the troops were with drawn to their original position. It being impractical to take off the cap tured guns,owing to the nature of the ground, they were disabled and left. Our loss is reported as not heavy. Among the wounded is Brigadier Geueral Terry and Brigadier-General tit. George Cooke. All the troops engaged, including two brigades under Geueral Pauseur, behaved most handsomely. The conduct ol the sharpshooters of Gordon’s corps, who led the assault, deserve the highest commenda tion. This afternoon there was skirmishing on the right between the picket Hues, with varied success. At dark the enemy held a consider able portion of the line farthest in advance of our main works. li. E. Lee, General. The Richmond Whig ol the 27th lust., speaking of this fight says ; The assault upon the enemy’s works near the Appomattox, Saturday morning, may be considered the commencement of the spring campaign in Virginia. Any relapse into the inactivity heretofore pievailitigis improbable, as the important movements and combina tions progressing in North Carolina will im pel bdth'Gcueral Lee and General Grant to execute co-operative movements, aud under take strategic enterprises, which will neces snrily bring on active and continuous hostili ties between the armies in Virginia. The affair of Saturday morning was doubtless in tended by Geueral Lee as a recounoissance ot the euemy s position, and, possibly, as a notice to Grant that he could not send” rein forcements toSheiman without endangering his own lines. Washington, Wednesday, March 29, V>. A correspondent at Gen. Sherman’s head quarters sends the following under date. Goldsborough, March 25 : THE REBELS AT WELDON. Information from Weldon shows that the Rebels have but a few hundred soldiers there. Most of the guns in the works have been re moved. FORAGING. Their cars are busy above us gathering pro visions from the eouutry and sending them to Richmond. Yesterday” a train came within twenty miles of Goldsborough. CAVALRY. The enemy has some twelve thousand cav alry in our front, under Wheeler and Hamp ton. Yesterday they hanged three of oar foragers within two miles of our outposts. AN ENGAGEMENT. Kilpatrick engaged part of his force yes terday evening. ’1 he tiring was very heavy for two hours. Reports of the fight‘have not yet come in. CONTRABANDS. The town and vicinity is crowded with ne groes of all ages. Much suffering prevails among them. Col. Boyd, Chief Quarter master ot the rwenty.-third Corps in the I field, is perfecting a plan by which the wo- ' men and cbildten are sent' to Newborn, and rations issued to them regularly, while the cost is charged to the able-bodied men, who are all retained and employed at fifteen dol lars ft month. In this way all who have families can support them. DKBEUTEU9. ‘ Col. Haves, Provost Marshal of the Twen ty-third Chips, is receiving about 40 desert ers per day. DESPONDENCY.

Everything is quiet here, and will probably remain so for a number of days. RATIONS. Col. treat, duel Commissaty, Twenty third Corps, yesterday furnished" Sherman's army 40u,00n rations for a single train at Kinston. LOSSES. Reports from the Medical Department show that our losses in the fighting last week have been over-estimated.. Fifteen hundred will almost cover the whole. CONGRATULATORY ORDER OF GEN. .MEADE. Hdq’rs Army Potomac, March 27. The. General Commanding has issued tiie following Order in which the merits of the action of tiie 85th are fairly stated : Hdq'bs Army Potomac, March 2tJ. General Orders, No, 13. — TbeMaj. Gen. Commanding announces to the Army the success of the operations of yesterday. The enemy, with a temerity for which he has paid dearly, massed his forces, and suc ceeded, through the reprehensible want of vigilance of the Third Brigade, First Divis ! ion, Ninth Corps, in breaking through our i lines, captuiing Fort Steadman, and Batter ies 9, 10 and 11. The prompt measures taken by Major Gen* Parke, the firm bearing of the troops of the Ninth Corps iu the adjacent portions of the line held by the enemy, and the conspicuous gallantry of the Third Division of this corps, for the first time under fire, together with the energy and skill displayed by Brigadier General llartraupt, leader, quickly repaired this disaster; and the enemy were driven from Fort Steadman aud our lines, with heavy 10.-ses in killed aud wounded, leaving in our hands eight battle-flags and over 1,90*r prisoners. The enemy being driven from the front of the Ninth Corps, the offensive was assumed bv the Sixth and Second Corps; the enemy by night was driven from his intrenched picket line, and all his efforts to recover the same, which were particularly determined and persistent on the Second Corps' front, were resisted and repulsed with heavy losses, leaving the Sixth Corps over 400 prisoners, and with the Second Corps two battle-flags and over 300 prisoners. The troops ol iho Sixth Coipa, reported by Major-General Wright as engaged in tin se operations, were (Jetty’s Division, Keifer's Brigade of Seymour s Division, and Hamb lin's aud Edward’s Brigades of Wheaton's Division. Os the Second Corps, Major-Gen. Hum phrey's mentions Mile’s aud Mott’s Divis ions, and Smythe’s Brigade of Hays’ Division, supported by Griflin’s Division, Fifth Corps. The result of the day was the thorough de feat of the enemy's plans, the capture of his strongly intrenched picket Hue under the ar tillery file of hismain works, and the cap ture of ten battle-flags and about 2,800 pris oners—a result on which the Major Geueral commanding heartily congratulates the Army. Two lessons can be learned from these operations: One, that no fortified line,how ever strong, will protect an army from an in trepid aud audacious enemy, unless vigilant ly guarded; the other, that no disaster or misfortune is irreparable, where energy and bravery are displayed in the determination to recover what is lost aud to promptly assume the offensive. The Major General commanding trusts these lessons will not be lost on this Army. Iu conclusion, the Major-General Com manding desires to return iiis thanks to those commands of the Army not specially men tioned in this order, for the promptitude dis played by all, in their movements to differ ent parts of tiio lines, under the exigencies of the hour. In connection with this subject the promptitude of Major Gen. Warren, and of Brevet Major-Gen. Hunt, Chief of Artil lery, in the early part of the operations, dur ing the accidental absence of tne Major-Gqu eral Commanding, deservo commendation aud thanks. Geo. C Meade, Major-Gen. Com. GEN. SIIERMAN AT CITY POINT. Washington, Wednesday, March 20. Major General Sherman arrived at City Point with some of tiio officers of his staff on Monday evening, and left on his return to his army on Tuesday, after an interview on board the steamer River Queen with Presi dent Lincoln and Gens. Grant, Meade, Old, Sheridan aud others. New York, 30th. Fouuded on the meeting of Gens. Sher man, Grant, Ord, and the President, are nu merous rumors of peace, but it is generally believed that peace will only come through the bullet and bayonet. Don. Simeon Draper has just arrived at New York from Savannah. Gen. Banks is expected to sail shortly for New Orleans. AMUSEMENTS. Savannah Tiibatre. —The performance last evening of “The Stranger" was a marked success. An unusually good house was iu attendance, whose close attention was held to the end of this absorbing play. In the production ot ‘‘Tho S; ranger” the company has surpassed all its former efforts, and has proved itself equal to the satisfactory render ing of tho most trying pieces. Too much praise cannot he awarded to Mr. Davenport for the managerial ability which he displayed in combining all the means at hand for the very complete and satisfactory performance of last evening. A single word in praise of Mr. Davenport as the “Stranger,” would he surperflous. His personation of this charac ter is too familiar to many of our readers to require any extended comments from us. Miss La Fond in “Mrs. Haller,” displayed to her many admirers anew phase of excellence, j the quiet but impressive assumption of i power. Indeed, every member of the com pany seemed to make special exertions last evening, and barring some few minor draw backs, with great success. Another fine bill is offered for to-night. Mr. P. C. Havens Chief Operator in tho U. P. Military Telegraph Department of the South,has placed us under lasting obligations for tiie care, faithfulness aud parience with which be received our lengthy dispatches up to a late hour last night."

[From the Richmond Whig, Marrh 23.] We received no exchanges this morning from points South of Danville. The follow- ! ing paragraphs from the Danville Register of of yesterday, relative to the victory at Stan tonsville, was written before the reception there of the official telegraph, and is the only newspaper statement of the affair which has reached its. We learn, as the Register states, that the battle commenced at 3p. m. The hour sp. m. was incorrectly transcribed from General Lee's despatch. We learned on undoubted authority, late yesterday evening, that the battle took place on the 19th in North Carolina, between the forces under General Hardee and a column of the enemy, which resulted in a signal vic tory to our arms. From the information in our possession we locate the battle near the Neuse river, and not far from the dividing line ot Johnson and Wayne counties, some forty or fifty miles below Raleigh. Geueral Hardee attacked the enemy at three o’clock, and drove them a mile ami” a half, capturing some guns and carrying two lines of intreuch ments. Under him were his own command and a portion of the army of Tennessee. [From the Richmond Sentinel March 23.) General Johnston telegraphed a day or two ago that in Hardee’s fight with Sherman, on the 16th, the Confederate loss was lour hun dred and fifty, and that of Sherman three thousand five hundred The fight took place at Averysboro, on the Cape Fear river, on Thursday, the 10th inst. Averysboro is about half way between Fayetteville aud Raleigh. Geueral Johnston’s defeat of the enemy was three days later, at Bentonsville, near the Neuse river, showing that Sherman’s re pulse by Hardee had turned him from his course. BATTLE OF BENTONSVILLE. [From the Richmond Enquirer March 23.] The Raleigh papers of Tuesday have no definite details of the recent fights between Johnston and Sherman. The Confederate .says ; We hope to be able in a day or two to give our readers reliable and cheering intel ligence. So far everything is encouraging. General Johnston inspires enthusiasm, and the army is in flue spirits aud each day in creasing in numbers. In the affair which occurred a few days since between Hardee’s aud Sherman's forces, we repulsed success fully five assaults upon our lines, and held our position until the object was effected. In drawing oft we lost two guns, because the horses had been killed and the guns could not be brought away. Our loss in the affair was about four hundred killed and wounded. The enemy’s about four thousand. Sherman marches no more uninterruptedly. Os the battle on Sunday the correspondents state a very deckled advantage was gained by our troops. The enemy were driven Several miles, with heavy loss. We eaptqred some ar.illery. All the signs give hope of anew tide in our affairs. The same paper says the sick and wounded are being cared for with commendable atten dance, not only iu hospitals, but in private residcnocs of the city. Tiie citizens have opened their houses to our brave defenders, aud the ladies of Raleigh are taking the lead in rendering those kind attentions which are so necessary and acceptable. '1 ho first battle above alluded to occurred on the Kith, near the junction of Black with South river, on the Fayetteville aud Golds boro road] some fifteen miles below Bentons villo, iu the vicinity of which place the battle of Sunday oecutred. The Confederate is in error in relation to the loss of artillery. Nothing was abandoned, and the enemy was fairly and severely beaten. Tho official report of tiie battle states that the enemy made the attack upon Gen. Hardee. Three deliberate and most desperate charges were made, and each was repulsed with great slaughter ; that our loss did not exceed three hundred, and that of the enemy, ascer tained from estimates of prisoners, between three thousand five hundred and lour thou sand. What the loss of the enemy was on Sunday, when the two main armies met, and Sherman not only met with repulse, but Was driven from the field, can only be conjectur ed. Sufficient is known, however, to con firm the belief that the end of Sherman’s bloodless march has come. [From the Richmond Sentinel, March 23.] Raleigh papers of Tuesday, received yes-; terday, all contain no reference to trie buttle of Bentonsville. The Confederate hopes to i tie able in a day or two to give its readers re liable aud cheering .intelligence.' So far, it I says, everything is encouraging. General Johnston iuspires omhusiasm, and his army is iu flno spirit Band each day increasing in numbers. [From tho Richmond SenMnel, Marrh 23.] Goldsboro has beeu evacuated. At the last accounts the enemy had not eutered. Our troops are now all said to lie in the right place, and we look tor an early and de cisive blow. SPIRIT OF TIIH PEOPLE. [From the Richmond Sentinel. March 23.] We are gratified to learn, from tiio Raleigh Joftmal, that the people of our sister States are responding nobly to tiie call of Governor Vance for contributions for the support of our armies. Meetings are being held iu all portions of the State not within the Yankee lines, and liberal donations made. The Progress says North Carolina has done her duty in sending men to the field, and she will not be outdone hy any other State in supporting the men iu the ” field. Her sol diers are doing theft- duty, and her people are doing theirs. Ihe Confederate says In this county the ball opened with a meeting of the citizens of Raleigh and vicinity, and the donations at Unit meeting attested the patriotism of tiie people ot tins community. We are daily receiving the accounts of smaller meetings in various portions of the State all breathing the same patriotic desire to Iced the soldier and keep him from want. The donations made at a meeting held in the Forestville uistr.et lurnish a handsome proof of the lib erality of that community. There appears to have l e.n nineteen persons present, who gave in the aggergate two thousand pounds of bacon, twenty-four barrels of corn, fifteen Ir H rn d v ol v OUr a “ ( \ fivc thousand dollars in men *y. \ ary well done* (From the Richmond Sentinel, March °3 ) Augusta papers of the 11th and 12tli inst \fT'!L ye V day ’ , b ™Shtusa number of !l? 19 ? f fr °m Columbia, Charleston, &c., which we subjoin. It was said some time since that tiie new D.sttttOUsa at Columbia was Spared because it contained a statue of which could not be removed without destroying it. A gentleman just from Columbia states that this is untrue. The statue was badly defac ed, and the reason why the State House was not blown up was because Sherman could not spare the powder. The State records of South Carolina were removed to a place of safety. The records of Beaufort, and other districts, which had been removed to Colum bia lor security, were, unfortunately destroy ed. Nearly all the plate sent from Charles ton aud Columbia for safe keeping, and much of the valuable plate of the citizens of the latter place, which was stored in the Colum bia Bank vaults, all fell a prize to the ene my. All of the assets of the various bank iug institutions of Columbia were removed, except a large amount of silverware that had been placed in their vaults for safe keeping. The effects of the State Bank were afterward captured by the enemy. We regret to learn that the entire printing interest of the Charleston Mercury were des trojed at the Charlotte Junction, during Sherman s late march through the place. Some Yankee officers wno escaped from the jail in Columbia some time since, made their appearahee in public when Siiermau made liis appearance in that place. They had been secreted in the city by Northern sympathizers. The number of whites which left Columbia with Sherman is about two hundred, and the number of negroes twelve hundred. It is rumored that ex-Governor Aiken re mained in Charleston, and has been made Mayor ot the city by the Yankees. At innsboto the Yankees stole ten boxes of silverware, valued at twenty thousand dol lars in peace times, from Governor Aiken. We are reliably informed that the vacant dwellings in Charleston are partitioned out among the negroes." During the progress of the Columbia fire a large number ot women and children took refuge in the City Park. With fiendish ma lignity the Yankees hurled their hand-gre nades, balls of turpentine, phosphorus, Ac., among them. The City Park, once conse crated to fashion and beauty, was converted into a slaughter pen. and its beautiful walks are now strewn with offal. One gentleman threw liis silverware into a well. But the Yankees discovered the ruse, bailed out the water and made themselves rich. Mr. J. G. Gibbs purchased the valua ble plate from a soldier tor twenty dollars in gold, and restored it to the owner. The Hebrew congregation of Charleston sustained a heavy loss in the destruction of they splendid organ, the five Books of Moses and oilier valuables. It is a note worthy fact that not an Israelite left with the Yaukees. WILLIAM GILMORE SIMMS. (From the Richmond Whig, March 23.) The writer of a letter from the ruins of Columbia to the Augusta Constitutionalist says it was his good fortune to meet, soon after arriving, this distinguished author, the Nestor of our Southern literature, whose name lias long been as familiar as household words in all tne polite circles of the world. Mr. Simms was in Columbia during the scenes ot conflagration and pillage, amt mat* yet find time to weave “into a historical nar rative of his experience during those days of suffering and horror. They certainly exceed iu reality aught that, with his wizard pen, he has ever conjured from the shadowy realms ot imagination. The elegant country seat of Mr. Simms, “Woodlawu, ” near Midway, was burned, together with most of his valuable library. Tiie country, however, is to be con gratulated upon his having saved over one hundred volumes of his mauu c ipt work*. Few men have suffered more than ne by the revolution. His stereotype plates, in the hands of his publishers, confiscated; his plantation ruled ; his stock driven off; his house burned—but still be is erect, undis mayed. and confident of the successful issue of the cause. Maybe live to write the epic of our struggle. A paragraph in the Augusta Sentinel says that when the Yankees Were at Midway Gen erals Howell, Smith and Blair placed a heavy guard over the resilience of Mr. Simms, and preserved it from pillage. The day after they left a negro applied # a torch to the dwelling and burned it and its valuable contents to the ground. A SPECIMEN OF SOUTHERN UNANIMITY. [From the Canton (Miss.) Citizen.] Thu following is the resolution offered by lion. Wm. Yerger, of Hinds county, which elicited such a lively discussion: Resolved, by tin; State of Mississippi, That tiie laws proposed in the Congress of the Confederate States to employ, lor the use of the government, all the cotton and tobac co belonging to the people, and to conscribe aud arm slaves, and place them in them in the army, with a promise of emancipation upon condition of loyal service, are inexped ient, impolitic aud unconstitutional; and if passed, will tend to impair confidence in the government, and establish a precedent dan gerous to the rights and liberties of the peo ple of these States. another SPECIMEN OP THE SAME SORT. The Telegraph yesterday announced that Georgia is going to” operate against the gov ernment in ai ming negroes. We guess tiie negroes will go into the service regardless of the Georgia legislators. This fight must lie won, and the slaves must he used in it when necessary. WANTED. Two or three Furnisued Rooms, within five minutes walk of tho Exchange. Address “H," llcrald Office.
