the full name of the hero who has marched upon Savannah. He was born in Lancaster, Ohio, in 1820; his father, Honorable Charles R. Sherman, one of the Justices of the Ohio Supreme Court, and eider brother of Senator Sherman. He was educated in the Senator Sherman. He was educated in the family of the Honorable Thomas Ewing, the distinguished lawyer, whose daughter he married, becoming brother-in-law to the now General Thomas Ewing. At sixteen he entered, and in 1840 graduated from. West Point. In 1841 be was stationed at Fort earthly account." would he "do any act, or think any thought, hostile to the Government of the United States." General Sherman was the hero of the victory of Shiloh, where, General Rousseau says, "he gave us our first lessons in the field in temy, and of men I ever saw, he was the most untuning, vigilant and patient." Grant gave him the credit of the victory. Sherman's was lately described as not a remarkable face, "save the nose, which organ was high, thin, and planted with accurate a

, after having lost twenty thousand men, killed, wounded taken, besides half as many more who have disbanded and gone home, is still stationary only forty-one miles from the field where it received this tremendous castigation, and Thomas fifteen miles off, either afraid to pursue and wind up the ball by the capture of the remnant, or else really anxious for them to escape. The lies are as gross as the father that begot them — as gross as the inventions about Price in Missouri--as gross as Sherman's from Georgia. The truth, we have no doubt, is this: Hood found, after having attempted the works at Nashville, that they were above his strength. He therefore withdrew, after having killed, wounded and captured more men than he lost. The Yankees themselves say he killed or wounded three thousand, and the New York News says that is a sufficient warrant for putting the Yankee loss at five thousand. He withdrew slowly, and Thomas has dared to follow him up. This, we have no doubt, is

It says: That shout which went up from Sherman's Western boys when their faces looked Charlestonward during their march, rings louder than ever in his ears. It was an ominous battle cry, "Lead us into SoSherman's Western boys when their faces looked Charlestonward during their march, rings louder than ever in his ears. It was an ominous battle cry, "Lead us into South Carolina! Take us to Charleston?" Ransom knows, and Jeff. Davis knows, what will be the fate of that accursed hot-bed of treason whenever the Union forces are ordered to cross its threshold. South Carolina thus far has experienced little of the evils entailed upon her sister States by her own diabolical acts. She yet will feel them, we trust, to the largest measure. It is but justice, and Heaven will surely mete it out, and force her to drink to the dregs the latter cup which she placed

From Sherman. The Yankee papers state that Sherman is moving against Charleston. This is not the first Sherman is moving against Charleston. This is not the first false announcement these journals have made. We have authentic information that Sherman has not yet left Savannah, and, with the exception of the expedition he sent off south, towards the Altamaha, Sherman has not yet left Savannah, and, with the exception of the expedition he sent off south, towards the Altamaha, has made no movement of any kind since his capture of the city. He has his hands full in disposing of the thirty-five thousand bales of cotton he says he has captured. When he does move, it will pr
