The Savannah Daily Herald. FROM JACKSONVILLE, FLA. ORGANIZATION' OF CITIZENS FOK LOCAL DfcFENCE. The authorities of the post having sug •gesteef to the citizens the propriety of being organized into military companies for local defence in view of the recent operations of the rebel forces outside the lines, a prelimi nary meeting of the citizens was held at the office of Lt. Himack. Ord. Officer, when, after an adurtss by Col. Tilghman, com mander of the Post, three companies were immediately organized and officers chosen. It is proposed to have one or two good militia companies in a thorough state of drill and readiness for any emergency. It is be lieved that the citizens of Florida, who have come to Jacksonville to enjoy the protection of the Government, will heartily join in this movement- The military authorities are disposed to favor the voluntary formation ot militia for home defence as the first step toward the restoration of the civil authority and a return to self-government. The Flori da Union says: We speak udvisedly, when we say that the fullest liberty and protection will lie accord ed them in the legitimate exercise of all their civil powers and duties so soon as any con siderable numbers shall manifest a desire to return thereto. [From the Florida Union, April I.] U. S. Marshal's Sale.— The U. S. Marshal for this District, made sale on Monday of several valuable lots of land under the con fiscation Act,and at an adjourned sale on the following day of a lot of prize property, con sisting oi cotton, rosiu and turpentine. In view of all the circumstances the property brought fair prices. A small lot of Florida long staple brought (50 cts., and another lot 60 cts.; the short staple was sold for 63 cts., the rosiu was sold for sl2 per bbl., and the turpentine for $1 05 per gallon. Torpedoes Captured—An expedition from the gunboat Norwich, under command of Act. Ensign Liuscott, started on the morning of the 18Ui ult., and landing at Bremer’s Point, proceeded up Drummond’s Creek about two miles and while foraging cumc across four toipedoes on the bank of the creek, which from appearances had not been there more than forty-eight hours ; upon a closer examination they proved to be ready fjr placing in the creek,being eacli filled with about sixty pounds of powder, of large grain and English glazed manufacture, and must have cost the rebels quite a fortune in their scrip to purchase it. The anchors were al ready attached, consisting of one hundred pound shells, filled with shot. Mr. Lincott, with the aid of Mr. Four and Wambling of the Engineer Corps, with a party of men and canoes'succceeded in get ting them off to the Norwich about ten o’clock the same night. Another Haiti. —A portion of the same party which recently made a raid, an ac count of which we published on the lltli ult., sturted from Jacksonville on Saturday last and landed at the head of Clark’s. Creek, and striking out into the interior about five miles, came across a rebel picket-post, on Robert’s plantation, of seven men, captur ing Lieut. Shedd and four men, and killing two others. The rebels were armed with carbines and revolvers, captured from United States troopp, ihree of which were Spencer’s seven shooter rifles captured from our troops at Gainesville last summer. The party brought the prisoners and their arms Into Jacksonville on Monday last, but were obliged to leave three horses with their equip ments, not having transportation to bring them along. EROJI THE AUGUSTA CONSTITUTION* A LIST OF THE STH INST. RAID FROM NORTH ALABAMA,’ Montgomery, March 30. There is now no doubt that the enemy in heavy force are moving down into the in terior of the State from points on the Tennes see River. From passengers who arrived iu this city this morning, from Selma, we learn that the Yankees are near Montevallo, two divisions strong, commanded by Brig.-Gen. McCook. Captain Harvie, of our scouts, reports the enemy, in considerable force, on the 27th, as within 29 miles of Tuscaloosa. From conversations with various depart mental officers, some just arrived this morn ing trom Selma, we learn that according to the reports of the scouts, the enemy, six thousand strong, started from Tuscumbia. Ttiey divided at Jasper, one column moving in the direction of Tuscaloosa, and the other towards Montevallo. This column two thou- sand five hundred strong, under command ot Gen. Ed. McCook, camped last Tuesday night at or near the widow Dupree's, three miles from Elyton. They had with them a wagon train and artillery. They came through the town of Elyton aud burned everything there. They also |burned the lied 'Mountain Iron W ones. "Wg; have information of certain disposi tions of our forces to successfully meet the movements of the enemy, but from motives of prudence conclude it will not do to enter into details. We do kuow this much, how ever, that the “Wizard of the Saddle,” is on .the flank, and a sufficient force in trout of the raiders to prevent them having every thing their own way. • Mr. Oflut, of this place, ju st arrived from Montevallo, states that when he left the enemy had not reached that vicinity, huß were expected, and the village was greatly excited, and numbers of people were moving away. It ine force of the enemy which left Tus cumbia is correctly estimated, and only 2500 are advancing on the Moutevallo road, then the main column must have gone in the di rection of Tuscaloosa. We have information that the enemy are tampering with the wires, which they have tapped at 6ome point not known. A dis patch from McCook’s operator, or someone of this party ot unwelcome visitors, has reached the office in this city. The dis oateh without date, is in substance as fol lows : “How are you? Will call on you iu Montgomery soon." LOSS OF THOMAS’ STORES AT EA9TPORT. Sknatobia, March 24. ▲ large amount of quartermaster and comm'ssary stores, including 20,000 sacks of corn, belonging to Gen. Thomas’ forces, were recently carried away at Eastport by a ludden rise in the Tennessee river. THE ADVANCE OF THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC. The anticipated advance of a large por tion of the Army of the Potomac seems to have been delayed but for the briefest pos j s ibie Space —if at all—by the ineffectual effort i of Lee to resume the offensive in front of Petersburg. A powerful infantry and cavalry force, under the immediate direction of the Lieu tenant-General, cut clear away from its base before daylight on the morning of Thursday. Its direction was by the routes which have* been tried with varying success on more than one occasion before. The infantry or a large part ot it, took the Vaughan and Hali fax plank load toward Hatcher’s Run The cavalry under Sheridan was pushed forward by the directest road for Dinwiddie Court house, a point about half way between the Weldon and the Southside Railroads, or about fifteen miles distant from each, and the same distance south by west of Petersburg!!. From Dinwiddie Court-house Sheridan’s presumed course would lie in the direction of Burkesville, at the junction of the South side and Danville Railroads; and striking for that point, he would have a twenty mile ride from Dinwiddie Court-house to the Southside road, and eighteen miles more to Burkesville. The entire distance, then, from the starting-place to the junction of the two roads that now keep open communication between Lee and Johnston, and supply Richmond with provisioning, would be about fifty-three miles. And unless Sheridan has met with some unexpected opposition, it is probable that by the time this goes to press, his gallant troopers will have effectually cut Lee s liue at both the Southside and Dauville roads. The chances are many to one that Burkesville station Is to-day in Sheridan's possession. And if so, the evacuation ol Richmond can hardly be other than a matter ol almost instant necessity. Lee, at least, will have to come out from behind his iu trenchraents, and strike whatever blow ad ditional he can, in the open Held, at the pow erful advancing army of which Sheridan’s horsemen are the heralds. An attempt to check the advance of our in fautry seems to have been ntade by a rebel Division under Griffin, near the Boydtown plank-road, on Thursday afternoon. But the resistance appears to have been of the feeblest kind, and probably was only attempted in the hope of gaining some delay to enaole Lee to count his chances in the new emergency.— The delay of this advance of our army, which was doubtless attributed by Lee to Grant's fear of risking the possibilities of another des perate series of sorties like those of Saturday, seems to have put the rebel General altogeth er off his guard. The prisoners taken con fess that tne movement was a complete sur prise. And to this fact possibly it will be found that we shall mainly owe the success, at least of that part of the programme which Gen. Sheridan has been instructed to carry out. At the last moment —when the real scope ofGen. Grant’s movement came to be understood—desperate efforts seem to have been made by Lee to hurry forward what ever force he could spare for the defence of the southside Railroad. As Sheridan had sufficient time to strike that road at an early hour yesterday, it is altogether probable that he has headed off Lee’s defensive force ; and that both Richmond and Petersburg are to day completely isolated from every portion of the Confederacy outside of Virginia. Thomas’ legiou is sweeping down through the mountains of Southwestern Virginia— effectually barring every footpath of egress for Lee in the direction of East Tennessee. Johnston is so perfectly powerless either to strike Sherman in his front, or to bring up bis shattered forces to the aid of his Chief, that the Richmond papers confess that he has not been heard from since the battle of Fayetville. It seems, then, scarcely any longer open to us to question, that this ac cursed rebellion is soon to receive its final blow almost in sight of the Confederate cap ital, and in the very heart of the common wealth which has been, for lour years, ihe mainstay of the conspiracy.— Neto York limes, April Ist. Tiik Siamese Twins —The Philadelphia Ledger has intelliugence by a North Caro lina gentleman that the Siamese Twins are still living on their plantation near Salisbury, NT G\, but tor the last two years their do mestic happiness, has been* disturbed by a falling out between then - wives, caused by chikhen. Up to the period that each lm’d five children, all prospered well enough, but one of them had a sixth, and this awoke euvy and jealousy to such a degree that the two sisters, not being bound together like the twin brothers, would no longer live under the same roof, though still in differeflt houses on the same plantation. The brothel’s arc now, it seems, about fifty years of age, hut oue, the smaller and feeh er of the two, looks, it is said, now fully ten years older than the other. They can turn hack to hack or face to face, hut that is as far as® the remarkable bond that unites them permits. There is an artery as large as the fcemoral artery that connects them. A few years since they visited London and ; consulted the leading surgeons there as to the possibility of cutting tne ambilicus that unites them, so that in the case of the death of one the life ot the other might lie saved. Among other experiments tried to deter mine the safety of 9uch an operation, a liga ture was tied firmly tor a lew.moments round the connection between them’ ss as to pre vent the circulation of blood through the arteTy. But it seemed as if each would ex pire if this were longer persisted in. The smaller of the two tainted away and lost all consciousness, and there were symptoms that the same effect would follow to die other. Should one die the other would probably not live, though if the smaller and feebler died first it might be worth while to try the experi ment of operating, hut there could he little reason to expect success. Although their feelings and passions are generally tue same, their mental operations art not wholly gov erned by the same law. Each one cau hold a conversation with a different person at the same time. One does not necessarily know, therefore, what may be communicated to the other. Since the breaking out of the rebel lion they have both dressed in the Confede rate gray, and they are both members of the same church, having united with a small Baptist church in their neighborhood, of which they have been considered very worthy members, though born Siamese. Jeff Davis to Have the Gold. —The Rebel Congress on Saturday, among its very last aet9, passed the bill empowering Jeff. Davis to 9eize the gold iu the banks, lor the purchase of supplies. This uses up every thingin the State of Virginia, and will put into Davis’ hands about two millions of gold, e 9« v^ Qt t 0 one hundred and fifty millions of Rebel currency. CHURCH DIRECTORY.
