Sherman (search for this): article 1
and it has been repeatedly declared by Northern journals that Burnside's primary purpose is a demonstration upon our railroad. It remains to be seen whether such be his real design, and with what success he will prosecute it. The experience of Sherman in a similar undertaking may possibly be his own. An assault upon Norfolk is the only object next after this railroad enterprise, commensurate in importance with the magnitude of the expedition. In such an undertaking, the enemy's vessels gh a protracted period. Nothing at all can save their Treasury, and nothing can keep the war on foot, but rapid operations and decisive successes. Yet, we do not see wherein the Burnside expedition promises these results more unmistakably than Sherman's did, which landed in November, nearly three months ago. Measured by its cost to the enemy, not even the capture of Norfolk, if it could be effected, would compensate him for his outlays, and this at last is the true standard by which his

The experience of Sherman in a similar undertaking may possibly be his own. An assault upon Norfolk is the only object next after this railroad enterprise, commensurate in importance with the magnitude of the expedition. In such an undertaking, the enemy's vessels could be of little direct use. The water approaches to that city from North Carolina are too narrow, tortuous, and easily obstructed, to admit the use of vessels, and if the enemy attempts a land attack, the chances in our favor of repelling him are two or three to one. The reduction of Norfolk would be the work of months, and could only be effected by a large increase of Burnside's forces, an increase which the Yankee exchequer is not able to afford for an operation stretching through a protracted period. Nothing at all can save their Treasury, and nothing can keep th

The campaign in Carolina. Untill within a day or two past, the capture of Roanoke Island by Burnside was considered a foregone conclusion. A fleet of nearly a hundred sail and an army of fifteen or twenty thousand men, with guns and equipments in profusion, were esteemed equal to the capture of any exposed piece of waterbound land like the Island in question. But the brave resistance offered for nearly two days by our troops, and the hopeful terms in which they spoke of their prospects, ery important. Its cost cannot have been less, in the first instance, than ten millions of dollars, and its charget every day are at least a quarter of a million. It has been thirty-one days prosecuting its career, to the point of capturing Roanoke Island, a feat which has cost the Federal Government several millions, independently of the first outlay in the enterprise, and the losses incurred by the storm.

speedily caused the house to be cleared of the idle throng, that any definite particulars of the tragedy could be obtained. It appears from statements made by various parties that a man named Fritz Kreibel was employed as cook at Sautter's house, and had been discharged, after which he sued Santter for $14, alleged to be the amount of wages due him. John E. Lehmone, bar-keeper at the establishment, was summoned as a witness to prove the debt, and the trial of the case was set for the 15th of February. The three met in Sautter's saloon yesterday, and Lebmone and Kreibel took several drinks, when it is probable that they got into a quarrel about the matter above alluded to, which resulted in the murder of Sautter. After the shooting, Kreibel hastily took his departure, and has not yet been apprehended; but Lehmone was arrested by officer Perrin, and is now in custody.

merfield deposed that he had just come in the bar-room with his lieutenant, and this man (John E. Lehmone) and the man shot (Sautter) were quarreling. Some words passed between Sautter and Lehmone, when Sautter gathered a club and came towards him. The lieutenant ordered witness to endeavor to get Lehmone away. Witness stepped up to him and took him by the right arm, when the pistol went off behind them. He knew positively that Lehmone did not fire the pistol. Witness is a private in Captain Phelps's company, Wise Legion. Other witnesses deposed that they were in the back room eating oysters when they heard some quarreling, and prisoner struck deceased, who went behind the bar and came back with a stick, when a pistol was fired. Prisoner then jumped on the man who was shot and commenced beating him. Louis Orttenbosh deposed that he came to Sautter's about half-past 9 o'clock and got breakfast; after that, prisoner and Fritz came in and took several drinks. He went out,

He went out, and when he came back prisoner had off his coat. He called Sautter from behind the bar; he came with a club in his hand. Prisoner struck deceased, when witness saw Fritz raise his hand and saw the flash. Knew that flash proceeded from the direction of Fritz's hand. Did not think the prisoner was much intoxicated.

Perrin, who arrested Lehmone, deposed that he heard there was a man in the row named Fritz Kreibel; that a yellow boy in the house said he would know him, and witness asked the boy to go with him to look for Kreibel. Prisoner then said there was no use to go after him, as he shot the deceased himself. The prisoner previously told witness that he had a fuss with the deceased, and that deceased struck him; but he did not shoot him. A. T. Sum
