Col. Pitts’ Address.—Temperance
Hall was numerously attended on Tliurs.
day night by ladies and gentlemen. We.
did not hear the whole speech. It was
encouraging and hopeful. He showed
the advantages of secession, how y, had
rid the South of vastalage to tho North,
how our re3eurccs had been developed,
bow invention hsd been pushed forward,
and how in all this the evident designs
of Providence were manifested, and that
our independence would be tecurcd.—
His anecdotes and illustrations caused
much laughter. Ha warmly approved
the resolution of the ladies of Columbus,
but said nothing on the jewelry question.
He opened with prayej and closed with
the benediction. The address was hap
pily received.
At the conclusion he slated that he was
new on the retired list. By talking to
the people he hoped to do some good.
The Hall had been generously furnished
him. All who wished to do so could give
what they thought proper to pay for
lights. He did not wl.h soldiers to con
tribute, as he could not accay t ibelr
money. Wo are told a number of hear
ers ccnlributed.
Is it not Practicable. —The Rich
mond “Sentinel” has been authorized to
say that contributions to the Confederate
Treasury will bo received by Secretary
Trenholm. Many offers have already
beeu made. The rich hsve proffered
their magnificent gifts, and the poor has
cast in their mite. Coins, currency,
plate, bonds, certificates of indebtedness,
all of which will be acceptable. Peters
burg has made a challenge to be one of
twenty-five to contribute two hundred
lhonßand dollars each towards paying
Gen. Lee’s army, and it is understood
that it wilt'not pass unaccepted. What
will Georgia do ? Is it uot better to give
your wealth to your Governmeat, than
risk it capture by the* cuemy, an utter
loss both to tho country and yourselves?
A list of the donors will be published by
tho Department. »
Respectfully referred to the “ladies of
Columbus” in the hope that they will be
able to perceive something “practicable”
in the suggestion here made. Ed.

Blockadn Running. — A loti or from
Brazos Santiago, of the 2d, says: During
the thick fogs which have prevailed on
the coast.for three or four weeks p&‘t,
several blockads ruuaovs have succeeded
in eluding the vigilance of the fleet
Among others, tka Col. Lamb ran into
Galveston in baiias! and carried out
1,500 to 1,800 bales of cotton. This
explodes t£e story in regard io the Lamb
having been turned into a privateer.
In the British Parliament, on the 17th
ulf., Mr. Lay ard, in complimenting Lord
Lyons on the discretion and ability he
hsd shown as ambassador at Washington,
staled that the duties of the post has been
so laborious that in one year his dispatch
es filled sixty folio voiumes. As Lord
Lyons’ health had broken down, tbe min
istry forbore to press him to decide wheth
er he would return to Washington or not.
A letter from Brazos Santiago, of the

Thf. SituatiiCi i* Noivnt Carolina.—
Sherman, etyts the Slaoon Telegraph,
was advancing direct from Fayetteville
upen Ealcigh ; as Bcntonviile, tho Bceno
of tho battle onuwcuccd last Sunday,
(the 1 Oib,) is nearly on an air lino from
the former to the latter place, in the
Southern part of Johnson county, of
which Smithfield is the county site.—
Johnson county lies broadside to Wake
county, in which Ualoigh is situated,
and hounds it ou tho East.
Goldsboro is about 50 miles Sou! Least
of Raleigh, on tho road from Wilming
ton to Weldon, and about &i> miles north
of Wilmington. The railroad, Atlantic !,
and Carolina, from Morehcad city on the j
coast to Raleigh, crosses the Wijmimrtou
and Weldon road at this pi ice.
Morehcad oity is the eaUerti or Allan
tic terminus of lie A. A N. 0. Railroad,
diataut about 150 miles E S. K. from
Raleigh.
Newberu ia at the junciou of thJ’Neuse
and Trent rivers, and on or near the
& N. C. Railroad, about 30 miles from
Aforehoad oi’v miles E. <?. E.
from Raleigh.
Kinston is on tho Neuse, and on the
A. & N. C. Railroad, about 80 miles from
Qoldsboro, 10 milm from Newbern, and
about 80 miies, E 8 E from Raleigh,
and 00 or 70 miles E N. E. from Fay
ettevillo.
Now ODlhelOth and 11th Sherman
was reported, at Fayetteville about CO
miles South of Raleigh, and Schofiold
was previously at Kingston, about 80
miles south-east; and the two armies
about <3O miles apart. The object of the
iwo commanders, was undoubtedly, to
form a jnnotion and march on Raleigh.
But. on the B.U or Oh the advancing col
umns of Schofield encountered General
Bragg, not only sustaining a never? check
but was driven four miles wiih terrible
slaughter and loc? of a large number of
prisoners.
The column tinder Sherman seems to
have advanced without serious impedi
ment about 20 miles from Fayetteville
towards Raleigh, whero we presume it
encountered our forces on tho 19ih under
JohnstoD, Reauregard and Hardee; re
sulting in the terrible engagement res
ported as having been commenced on t hat
day and on Monday.
Georgia Troops Supplied —Last eve
ning, says the Macon Confederacy, we
had the pleasure of meeting with Gen. Ira
R. Foster, the very efiioiont Quartermas
ter General of the Stale cf Georgia, who
has just returned from Richmond. The
pooplo have heretofore seen notices of
the good work he has been performing
among the needy Georgians of Lee’o ar
my—distributing blankets, clothing,
shots and socks to the brave men—and
he found thousands of the glorious patri
ots in very distressing circumstances.
Many of them had torn up their blankets
«u,i tioj tiicu ou ilielr limbs in ihoelead
cf pants, which they had not. Many had
no shoes or socks and had tied up their
feet with rags, pieces of blankets, eto.,
using tho bark of trees or twisting up
swamp grass to tic or. these coverings foi
their feet. This is the way our men are
doing—this is what they are suffering
for the cause of liberty and independ
ence.
The General succeeded in relieving the
wants of almost every need/ Georgian in
the army’; and many were tho blessings
bestowed upon him for hi# energy and
the kind interost he was manifesting in
the welfare and comfort of our brave und
! true men : but pariiettiarly upon our no -
ble State by’ these noble -tjua of *ners, (
for her munificence and consideration in j
this hour of their need.
Let the Slate i.outinue this bounty.
Lot it bo ready to send iien. Foster ogaitt
among our mea by next October, loaded
with clothing, blankets, shoes and socks.
Ladies, send Gen. F*Oer socks by- the

■ doted Augusta March 20:h in the Alaoon
papers of Thursday:
Ou the G h instant Giilem was being
reinforced by Thomas with a body
of cavalry at Knoxville, East. Tennessee,
preparatory to waking a move into
Western Virginia.
Thomas had garrisoned Dalton and
Tunnel Hill with three regiments, which
were divided between the two places.
Chattanooga had two regiments. There
were forty men in etch block house at
each end of ihe bridge over Running
Water.
Throe small regiments, composed of
negroes, Dutch and Tories, were station
ed at Bridgeport. Two regiments re
mained at .Stevenson. Tho l>a acce of !
Thomas’ army wasat. Huntsville, Decatur j
and Eastport.
Roaeoraus has five brigades in .Middle j
Tennessee, scouring the cjuniry fjr sup- l
plies and recruits.
The rebel soldiers the* oa<ch are
given tho alterua ive ro join tho Yankee
army or Lo kilied- Stokes' brigade is
most, conspicuous iu 'he work..
The garrison at Pensacola on the Bth
inst. amounted lo six thousand.
Railroads. —The cars arc expected I o !
run through to Atlanta from Macon ou j
Sunday. They ran within half a mile of i
East Point on Friday, (il<l 'hecoe the
road is completed to Atlanta, the cars
will leave Macon at B:is, «. m. and re
turn ot 1:40 p. m.; leov- Atlanta 5:30 ».
m. and return at 6 p m.
The upper end of the Georgia railroad
is in running order from Decatur to
Lithonia seventeen miles. The building
of the bridge over Yellow river, and the
track from the giver to Lithonia, and
from Decatur to Atlanta, is the nnfinish ■ ;
cd work of the road.
The communication between Camak
ar.d MaytfieMl<a» been restored. Trains
are expected to run between Atlanta
and Augusta by the middle of next
month.
Prince Polignac, Major General of the
Confederate army, with two officers of
his staff, arrived in Havana on the 18th
alt., on his way to Europe—some say to
get married.
From Atlanta.—Atlanta is again ris
ing into importance. Her streets are
once more thronged with meu of busi
ness.
Tho pooplo of the city and of Northern
Georgia, oayc a correspondent of the
Macon Confederate, arc more devuted
than ever to tint Southern cause.
The absentees ore rapidly liockiug to

Paroled (Georgia) prisoners daily pass

Lincoln’s Inauguration.
Northern papers have full accounts.
There was not near so large r crowd as
four yeara ago. The lowest estimate
placed it at 35,000 The Washington
branch road is now a double track and
trains of ten to eighteen oars were ran
from Baltimore every hour ts lbe day
and night of the 3d A correspcdient
thus accounts for tho falling off of visitors
compared with former inaugurations:
Four years ago, owing to the existing
popular fermentation, all section.” of the

AT THE OAriTOt.
Among the visitors to the Benatc early
in the morning were Vice Admiral Far
ragut and Maj. Gen. Hooker. The re
mainder of the dignitaries allowed ad
mission, according to programme, were
more at their leisure in attending ; but, |
after tferwref cornmeur etl to m r:rc the j
Senate found it impossible to trammel
business. At ten o’clock, the guile
ries were thrown open to the ladies, when
the dear creatures indulged in character
istic rushing, scrambling, squeezing and
jarring for seats.
The ceremony of iuslalling the new
Vice President of the Senate commenced
at iiitcen miculos to twelve, Air. Hamlin
escorting him to the President’s chair,
and, after delivering a brief farewell ad
dress, administering to him ihc oath.
Vice President Johnson made some re
marks, referring to his elevation Irorn
the ranks as au illustration of American
privileges, and alinittiiig thosubordiua
tiouoftke President and Secretaries to
the will of the people; then, taking the
bible presented by Mr. Hamlin, and el
evating it before the audience, be ex
claimed, “I kiss this book before toy na
tion of the United States.” After some
further remarks, the Vice President took
i the chair, and, calling tho Senate to or
der, administered tbeoa'h to tho Sena
tors elect to the 30fh Congress.

P.y this time tho procession had ar
rived at the north gate of the capital, aud
with the multitude shat accompanied it.

At a few minutes past rsyelve o'clock, j
the President entered the east portico j
from the rotunda, followed hy the impos- [
ing cortege that had assembled in *bej
Senate, and as he advanced toward the j
front tho sun burst forth in noon day [
splendor, simultaneously' wiih 'the pro- j
longed and deafening applause of the im- j
menss assemblage in front. With thej
auspicious rays shining full upon his tin- ,
covered head, and amid the roaring wel- j
come of his •countrymen, the President, j
advanced in his unassuming but digui-j

Pottos Arrived in Liverpool ahd
Marseilles. —On the fkh of January the
old Liverpool and New York packet ship
Dacotah arrived at Liverpool from Nas
sau, with a cargo consisting of 4000 baeia
of cotton—so says a London paper, which
adds: “At the present, rales for fine
American staple in Liverpool, this oargo
is valued at 11280,000.”
The Paris correspondent of the Lon
don Times in his lottcr dated January
7, writes as follows :
The importation of cotton into Mar
seilles increased so much during the last
year, that it is now one of the principal
markets in which cotton manufacturers
supply themselves with the raw material.
The quantity of raw cotton imported in
to Marseilles during the year 1864,
amounts to 167.365 bales, while tho im
ports amounted to only 147,137 halos.
The iucroase is slill raovf considerable
than it appears frotii these figures, inas
much as, by anew system employed for
packing the raw cotton by the growers,
the bales received at Marseilles in the
year 1864 are much heavier than those
received previously.
Tub Yarkkks in Paris.—A Paris cor
respondent thus details some ot the an
tics of a, gang of inevitable Yankees at a
Court ball at the Tuillerics :
The next and third ball of the Mftsou
takes p'ace at tho Tuilleries to-morrow
evening. The rush for presentation,;
among the Americans is immense, and,
as the number which ho will present is
limited, and Mr. Bigoly is determined,
as tar as ho cau judge, to introduoe pcr»
sona of the highest respectability, there
will be many disappointments. At the
late ball one of tlioso things occurred
which have a tendency to make the
American name abroad a synonym for
ill breeding nod bad wtinnere. In the
Balls des Mureuhaux is a raised platform,
ou which tho Emperor and the Imperial
families sit, surrounded by the Court and
the Diploma!io corps.
Before them is an open space for daen-.
ing; but, while the Emperor remains in
the room, only persons connected with
the court and foreigners of very high
rn.uk are expected so dance there. I*
seenm, however, that at the last hall a
party of enterprising American laditv
