the most amicable relations with the Imperial 
Government, and that the cordiality existing 
between them shall not be disturbed.

interests of the Southern Confederacy. Gen.

are for the noble cause of the South, and extends 
to Col. Pierson his sincere friendship. 
He adds, being placed in the command of this 
military line under the Emperor, His Majesty,

ROCHESTER, N. Y., MARCH 4, 1S65. 
From the South. 
We extract the followng particulars con¬ 
nected with the evacuation of Charleston, from 
the N. Y. Tribune : 
Charleston Harbor, Feb. 18. 
Early last evening. Brig. Gen. Sehemmeifinmg, 
commanding the northern district of the Depart¬ 
ment of the South, discovered some indications 
which led him to believe that the rebels were 
about to evacuate Charleston and its defenses, 
and he accordingly ordered his picket boats 
to keep a bright look-out and report to him im¬ 
mediately any movement on the part of the 
enemy. 
About 3>£ A. M., a terrific explosion took 
place in Charleston, which shook every ship in 
the harbor and on the har, and almost simulta¬ 
neously flames broke out which could be distinct¬ 
ly seen in different parts of the city. 
It appears that the explosion took place at 
the Wilmington Depot, the lire from which 
rapidly communicated with the surrounding 
buildings, causing a general conflagration of all 
the dwelling houses in the vicinity, and it was 
whilst the unfortunate inhabitants were trying 
to extinguish this fire that another explosion 
took place, which caused a terrible loss of life 
amongst the women and children, who arc rep¬ 
resented as having boon horribly mutilated 
and presenting a spectacle sickening to behold. 
About 6 A. M., this morning, Gen. Schemmel- 
finnig moved his forces up to and occupied the 
city and its defenses. 
The formidable earthworks on James Island 
were found abandoned and the guns spiked. 
The damage can, however, be easily repaired. 
At 8 A. M., a detachment was sent to take pos¬ 
session of Fort Sumter, and raised the flag 
which Gen. Anderson hauled down almost four 
years ago. At precisely 9 o’elock the flag was 
raised amid deafening cheers, by one of Gill- 
more’s staff. The flag-staff of the fort had long 
since been shot ay-ay, and it was necessary to 
improviso one with the oar of a boat. 
As fast as Schemmelfinnig’s forces could he 
thrown into the city they were set at work to 
put ont the fire, which, at the time of leaving, 
was raging furiously in different parts of the 
city, presenting an appearance of horror fright¬ 
ful to behold. Old men, women and children 
were rushing frantically to and fro in an agony 
oi despair at the loss of their homes and the 
killing and mutilating of friends. 
It is impossible to estimate the amount of 
cotton destroyed by the rebels. Several thou¬ 
sand bales were collected in different, parts of 
the city and set. on fire almost simultaneous with 
all the principal depots and warehouses. There 
is no doubt that the rebels intended to burn the 
city to the ground, despite the misery it would 
entail on thousands of women, children and 
old men, of which class the inhabitants of Charles¬ 
ton are now almost entirely composed. It is the 
opinion of Gillmore's stall’ that in all probability 
two-thirds of the city would be destroyed before 
the fire could be extinguished, with the imper¬ 
fect means of subduing it at hand. 
The last rear guard of the rebels left Charles¬ 
ton at 4 o'clock this morning, and there are vari¬ 
ous rumors and conjectures as to their destina¬ 
tion. Opinion is that they intend concentrating 
in the vicinity of Florence, to which point they 
have railroad communication from Charleston, 
unless it. has been recently destroyed by the ex¬ 
pedition sent to Bull’s bay. 
Several hundred rebels who secreted them¬ 
selves in different parts of the city when the 
main column was retreating, have given them¬ 
selves up. They express a desire to be allowed 
to take the ootli of allegiance to our govern¬ 
ment and be allowed to remain in the city. 
Since our last issue two more important victo¬ 
ries in “the South” are announced. General 
Schofield .old Admiral Porter attacked Fort Au 
derson (a lew miles from Wilmington, N. C.,) 
on the 17th ult., and continued it till the morn 
ing of the 19th, when the rebels skedaddled. 
But little of value was left in the fort except, ten 
heavy guns and a quantity of ammunition. Most 
of tbc fighting ou our side was done by the fleet. 
Admiral Porter reports his loss at only three 
killed and live wounded. Fort Anderson was 
the forlorn-hope of Wilmington. 
The rebels in Wilmington, being assured that 
their “time had come” to “die iu the last 
ditch” or ruu, concluded to adopt the latter

Kentucky refused, on the the 23d ult,, to 
ratify the Constitutional Amendment abolishing 
slavery. 
A j>arty of rebel cavalry dashed into Cumber¬ 
land, W. V., before daylight on the 21st ult,, 
surprised and captured the pickets, and car¬ 
ried off' Gens, Cook and Kelly. It seems to 
have been a very daring and well-planned affair. 
Cavalry have been sent in pursuit. 
The Louisville Journal of the 23d, has a special 
dispatch which says our troops, near Midway, 
yesterday, captured Robt. J. Breckinridge, son 
Of the Rev. Dr. Breckinridge. 
It is reported that the rebel Col. Howard 
Smith entered Mount Sterling nuder a flag of 
truce and was held as a prisoner by our forces 
there. 
The Memphis Bulletin learns from gentlemen 
who left Selma, Ala., on the 15th ult., and came 
through Meridian and Jackson, Miss., that Dick 
Taylor has a considerable force at Selma, and 
also at Meridian. 
At Selma, the rebels were manufacturing 
large quuntites of munitions of war. Forti¬ 
fications extend all around the place, but they 
are' not very formidable. Most of Hood’s 
army had been sent to operate against Gen. Sher¬ 
man. 
They were nearly naked and wholly dispirited, 
and had lost all hopes of successful resistance to 
the Federal troops. 
Large numbers were barefooted, and it is stated 
that 10,000 of Hood’s men had their feet frost 
bitten during their retreat from Nashville, in 
which they suffered more than during the whole 
previous three years.
