he 20th; a step which I have regretted ever since. Wheeler's cavalry was placed in observation above, and Jackson's below, the railroad. On the 22d, Major-General Wheeler was sent, with all his troops not required for observation, to the enemy's rear; and on the 24th beat a brigade at Cassville and took or burned two hundred and fifty loaded wagons. In the meantime, the enemy was reported by Jackson's troops moving down the Etowah, as if to cross it near Stileboro', and crossing on the 23d. On the 24th, Polk's and Hardee's corps reached the road from Stilesboro' to Atlanta, a few miles south of Dallas; and Hood's, four miles from New Hope church, on the road from Alatoona. On the 25th, the enemy was found to be intrenched near, and cast of, Dallas. Hood's corps was placed with its centre at New Hope church, and Polk's and Hardee's ordered between it and the Atlanta road, which Hardee's left was to cover. An hour before sunset, Stewart's division, at New Hope church, was fie

We have received Northern papers of Thursday, the 23d instant. Gold, 201 3 8. The evacuation of Wilmington — the fall of Fort Anderson. The Yankee papers contain a good deal about the fall of Fort Anderson, which preceded the evacuation of Wilmington, North Carolina. It appears that the fort was heavily shelled by Porter's fleet and a demonstration made in its front while another effort was made to get in its rear. An account says: General Schofield having accomplished all that he had contemplated by this demonstration in front, about 3 o'clock P. M. withdrew the whole of the Third division and sent it around upon the other road, where he had arranged to have General Ames's division of the Twenty-fourth corps meet them and march together, to come in upon the north side of the fort, the only place at which the enemy could escape. General Cox had provided himself in advance with competent guides to conduct his column by the intricate roads leading through this pa

The proceedings of the court-martial in the case of Beall, the rebel raider and spy, now under sentence of death at New York, have been referred to Judges Advocate-General Holt for examination and report. There is little probability of a commutation of his sentence, as if that should be done there would be no reason for the execution hereafter of such desperadoes, whatever might be their crimes. Affairs in New York. A letter from New York, dated the 23d instant, says: At a meeting of merchants of this city to-day, in Collector Draper's office, Moses Taylor presiding, it was resolved that measures be taken to duly celebrate the recent victories in a manner commensurate with the grandeur of the Union armies over the rebel hordes, and the appreciation felt by the people of this city and the country at the fact of the re-occupation of Charleston by our loyal brothers in arms, together with the fact that the flag of our country again floats ove

he Bahamas since the commencement of the war. The steamers Fox (since captured) and Druid returned to Nassau from Charleston on the 6th and 9th ultimas, and these were the last arrivals in the colony from the Confederacy. When the fall of Fort Fisher was announced, quite a fleet of blockade-runners started from Nassau for Charleston; but they soon returned, one by one, from profitless voyages. General Preston left Nassau for Charleston, but after a few days he was again at his quarters in the Royal Hotel. The colonial authorities refused permission to the captain of the United States gunboat Honduras to anchor in port during the heavy swell at sea. The Expedition against Mobile. A telegram from New Orleans, dated the 23d ultimo, says: It is reported that General Canby will leave here for Mobile to-day. He is master of the situation, and good reports may be soon expected from his forces and the fleet there under Commodore Palmer, which is hard at work.
