mpanies of foragers were sent out in all directions to procure supplies. The army consisted of four corps--the Fourteenth, Fifteenth, Seventeenth and Twentieth, besides Kilpatrick's cavalry. The rations of the soldiers appeared to be short, and those who were held as prisoners suffered for food — our informant going four or six days without anything to eat. Our informant, Dr. Glover, was held as a prisoner until the Yankee army reached Lynch's creek, between and Cheraw, in or near Chesterfield district, when he was released by General Blair, commander of the Seventeenth corps. From the direction the army was then marching, he thinks they were making for Georgetown. The talk among the soldiers was, that they were going to Georgetown, but there was no certainty about their destination. The Yankee cavalry remained a few days in Lancaster district, foraging and plundering, and were met two or three times by our cavalry and scattered. On Sunday morning, the 26th, General Whe

Moscow has more than four hundred hotels, and three hundred coffee-houses, inns and gin-shops. These are open all night, as the inhabitants seldom go to bed before two or three in the morning, and during the winter scarcely ever remain in the street. A Paris letter says: "General McClellan intends to prolong his sojourn in Paris for some weeks, and thence go to Rome and Dresden, with the intention of spending next summer in the south of France and returning to America next autumn." A new light, made from magnesium, has been discovered in Paris. Its main feature is that it does not affect colors, and therefore it will be of great value in the French shops. A new periodical is to be published at Rome, to be called the Journal of the Immaculate Conception, and, as a premium to subscribers, a month's indulgence is promised. A railway is to be built in

Sherman's March through South Carolina. Our Southern exchanges, which have gotten through the mail blockade, give us some intelligence of the scenes of barbarism which have attended Sherman's march. Dr. Glover, of Orangeburg, South Carolina, who was captured by Sherman's troops between Orangeburg Courthouse and Columbia, and held as a prisoner until the Yankee army passed Lancaster Courthouse, was with the enemy in their march through Columbia and Winnsboro', and gives the Charlotte (North Carolina) Democrat an interesting account of their conduct in those places and on the line of march: There was no regular battle at Columbia — only slight skirmishing on the part of our cavalry. The enemy commenced marching into the city on Friday, the 17th, and very soon after the city was in flames. The conflagration extended from the capitol, on both sides of Main street, to Cotton Town, consuming about eighty squares of buildings. The old capitol, the Catholic convent, the court-h

The old capitol, the Catholic convent, the court-house and jail, and the printing offices, were burnt, along with hundreds of other buildings.

The cross-ties were burnt and the rails twisted. Our informant says that, so far as he could see or learn, no personal injury was inflicted on persons found in their houses. Instances of violence may have occurred, but he saw nothing of the kind. Every man they met on the road was captured and held as a prisoner unless he could produce evidence that he was not liable to military service. In regard to the destruction of property t
