OF YESTERDAY.
Acgubta Personals.-We learn from friends
mming through the lines that the latest sub
terfuge adopted by the fire-eating secession
ists of Augusta, to shield themselves from
the array, is the “Detective Corps.” The
entrance fee to this nice little Mutual Preser
vation Society is fifty thousand dollars.—
Such ardent and self-sacrificing patriots as
Jesse Ansley, Wm. and Thomas Roberts,
Porter Fleming and others of that stamp,
who. regardless of the general want and
misery around them, have fattened upon
speculation in rice, flour, bacon and other
necessaries of life, avail themselves of the
protection of this inquisitorial committco;
and, while they hunt the h usbands and sons
into the rebel army, abuse the unprotected
families left behind. Mims, the former blood
thirsty enrolling officer, whose name is yet
a terror iu the hcrthes of Augusta, has been
removed, but has succeeded in escaping the
service by gettiug a position in the Quarter
master’s Department.
The most popular branch of the service
in Augusta among the chivalrous young
gentlemen who have flocked to that inland
place of safety, from Charleston, Savannah,
and else.vhere, is the Navy! The “Naval
Brigade ” iB now full iu numbers, and com
posed of the flower of the South. They are
becoming most proficient in their duties,
which, iudeed, are only loafing, gallanting
the ladies, and drinking the vilest whiskey.
There are serious grounds for apprehension,
it is said, that the youug gentlemen here are
going to the bad at a fearful rate, and the
young ladies with them.
The Presentation to Col. C. A. Rice.—
A few days since, our correspondent at Hil
ton Head, gave an account of the presenta
tion of a splendid horse and equipments to
Lt. Col. C- A. Rice, Chief of Military Police,
and Assessor of the District of Hilton Head.
The Colonel has made in a letter to
the donors, in which, after expressing his
gratitude for the magnificent gift, he gives
utterance to the following manly declara
tion of his soutiments and future course of
action, which every public officer would do
well to consider, when placed in a similar
situation:
I have before declined testimonials, both
because I deemed myself unworthy of them,
and in that I think the reception of them, by
an officer charged with executive duties,
from those whom might come within the
Bcope of his official capacity, was manifestly
improper, by either influencing his action in
an involuntary way,or giving rise to injurious
suspicious of sucli an effect. I should have
refused this generous gitt, had I known of it
in advance, or had I not felt sure that it was
a sincere expression of esteem, dictated by
no improper motive, with the full
kuowledge that the impartiality of
my official conduct could in no
way be affected by any private consideration.
I hope this explanation will not be deemed
a modification of my expression of sincere
thankfulness for so flattering and so accept
able gifts, from tfiose. iu whom I take so
much interest; but I deem it proper to make
it, in justice to myself, as well, also, as to
those who have so complimented me. If the
circumstance has any influence on my course
as an officer connected with the civil govern
ment of a post, it will be, I can promise, to
make me more scrupulously just anu impai
tial in what I do; more zealously devoted to
the thorough performance of all my duties;
and more cautious that every official act
shall meet the approval of all reasonable peo
ple. I am, very respectfully.
Your obedient servant,
C. A. Rice,
Lieut. Col. 144th N. Y.. & Chief Mil. Police.

The Shenandoah.— The latest intelli
gence from Melbourne, Australia, brings in
formation that the Shenandoah, the rebel
cruiser, was still at that port awaiting per
mission from the Govornor to coal and make
-repairs. The Captain promised to observe
strict neutrality, and get to sea again as soon
.as possible. The Shenandoah was thought
to be too late to do much mischief, as there
was scarcely an American vessel trading
there. The stories of her depredations have
been much exaggerated.

I am indebted to Capt. Jesse Merrill, Chief
Signal Officer, for the following synopsis of
latest news as signalled from the flag-ship.
Some of the news is latter than that contain
ed in the papers.
The grand movement has begun; all our
armies are in motion, and the severesj fight
ing of the war is expected.
The news from the Army of the Potomac
is important. The 24th Corps hold Hatcher’s
apd Gravelly Runs.
Gen. Sherman ie at Dinwiddie Court
House; he is flanking the Rebels on the
right. Gen. Grant has taken the field in per
son, and his headquarters are at Gravelly
Run. Enemy ara unable to check our ad
vance; the sth corps ha* had a sharp fight,
they suffered terribly aud were obliged to
retreat. Gen. Thomas has formed a junc

SECOND DHBPATCH.
Gold closed in New York on the evening
of the 31st at 151 1-2.
Iu my first despatch, instead of saying the
sth Corps retreated, should have said that
they lost only three hundred, (300) men, and
that they drove the enemy a mile with severe
Confederate loss.
-It is Sheridan and not Sherman, that is at
Dinwiddie Court House. Gold closed at New
York at 151 1-2. m. S. W.
We are in expectation of despatches which
may arrive at any moment; should they
come after our Evening Edition has gone to
press, and should their importance warrant
it, the news will be immediately issued in an
“extra.”— Ed.
Hiltok Head, April 6.
Tho following are despatches from the
New York papers of the Ist;
Headq’rb Army of the Potomac, )
March 29. 1865. >
The route taken by a portion of this army
is the same over which it lias travelled sev
eral times heretofore, viz; the Vaughan and
Halifax roads, running southwest across
Hatcher’s Run; the column started at 3a.
m. this morning. A large cavalry force un
der Gen. Sheridan took the Halifax road to
wards Dinwiddie Court House.
The infantry column crossed Hatcher’s
Run on the Vaughan Road, but met with no
opposition until they arrived within a short
distance of the Boydtown Plank Road,
where the enemy’s pickets were found, and
were driven back.
Griffin’s Division was sent up the Quaker
Road, and about 3 o’clock in the P. M., a
division of the enemy made its appearance,
and not knowing the strength of our force,
formed in line and charged, but the rebels
were repulsed with heavy* loss. A number
of prisoners were taken and brought in;
they said it had been a complete surprise to
them, as they had expected an attack in the
vicinity of Fort Steadman, and that these
troops had been marched there to meet it.
It is believed that the Rebels were hnrry
; ingmen toward the Southside Railroad, in the
j afternoon in the hope of being able to prevent
! its destruction, but great confidence was felt
that Sheridan would be a little ahead, and
that by the next night w’e would have news
of its destruction at some point near Burkos
ville. If this should be accomplished, it is
claimed that the evacuation of Petersburg
and Richmond must follow.
W. D. McG.
The following incident is told as occurring
at the recent New Jersey railroad accident.—
Moses Goddard, a Vermont soldier, who was
dying ot Lis hurts, remarked to a lady who
held him in her -arms and endeavored to
.^ B ,^ aßt agonies by bathing his face:
* ** B riglit, do so, Fanuie, I have served
my three years, and come home to die,” no
doubt thinking he was addressing his wife.
