Gen. Sherman's proclamations. --In one of Gen. Sherman's proclamations, he announces to the people of South Carolina that some of the happiest years of his life have been passed in their State. As he professes to be a gentleman as well as soldier, we do not envy his feelings on visiting with fire and sword a community which has thus contributed to his happiness.

Sherman's proclamations, he announces to the people of South Carolina that some of the happiest years of his life have been passed in their State. As he professes to be a gentleman as well as soldier, we do not envy his feelings on visiting with fire and sword a community which has thus contributed to his happiness.

From the Brooklyn (N. Y.) City News we extract the following: Some wonderful things have been done during the war, but the smartest thing yet was the battle of Piketown, Ky. The Confederate force consisted of 740 men--615 infantry, and 125 cavalry. Of these the Federal troops killed 400 and took 2,700 prisoners! What became of the balance we are unable to learn. We hope they are yet living to repent of their treason. The success of the Federal cause can no longer be doubted. We can beat the Confederates at everything — even at lying. Consular Appointment. Washington, Nov. 22. --Col. Einstein yesterday took formal leave in this city of the officers of the regiment which he formally commanded, having been appointed Consul to Nuremburg. He will leave for Europe by the next steamer. Andrew Johnson in Kentucky. Louisville, Nov. 21. --Hon. Andrew Johnson arrived here this evening, destined for Eastern Kentucky, and Gen.
