was one killed and three wounded. This

Major Giierin, Chief Commissary of
South Carolina, wrote;
We are almost entirely dependent on
Florida, and it is of thelat importance a
th is tirue that the troops here should be
subsisted.
Again he says:
As it is. our situation is full of danger,
from want of meat. and. extraordinary
efforts are required to prevent disaster.
And on October 9 he says.
We have,uow 40.00p troops and labor
ers to substitute. The supply of bacan
on hand m the city is 20 OuO pounds, and
the cattle famished by mis State is not

Major Millen, of Savannah, oa Octo
ber 19, say.-:
I assure you. Major, that the stck of
bacon aud beef for the armies of the
Confederate Siaies is now exhau.-tedr
and we depend entirely upon what we
may gather weekly. Starvation stares
the army in the face! The handwriting
is on the wall.
On the 26ih of October he s.iys:
Firm the best information I bave? the
resources of food (meal) of both the
Tennessee and Vergii.ia armies is ex
hausted.. The remark now applies with
equal force to South Caro.inia and
Georgia and the armies must henceforth
depend upon the tnergy of the purchas
ing commissaries, through their daily
or weekly collections. I have exhausted
the beef cattle, and am now obliged to
kill sjork cattle.
From these extracts you will preceive
that th re is tno much cause for ihe deep
solicitude manifested by the writers.
Governor Carney, who has been el
ected by the Kansas Legislature to the
United States Senate, was formerly a
merchant in Cincinnati, doing buisness as
the senor party in the firm of Carney,
Swift it Co. He went to Kansas some
year? since, was there engaged in suc
cessful commercial operations, nvon for
himself a reputation as a first class
busme$3 man, was 'elected Governor,
and now is chosen to fill a Senatorial
seat as the representative of the State.
So we learn from the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Gen. Heron, commanding the Federal
forces on the Rio Grande, recently went
into the city of Matamoras with four
companies of troops, while a fight was
going on between Governor Ruis and
Coriinas, arid moved the American Con
sult family and 1,000,000 in specie to
Brownville.
A latter from' Burksville, Ky., dated
Feb. 21st, 1SG4: says:

prisoners, having killed two of Champ
Ferguson's men.

wnich it e4jrn of, the briJiarjarsyrf'.-iti-'
cal and literary lAlcnt of tLe higaest erder which
tupporuit. No publication, ct the kind has, ia
this country, to occesslaily combined the tnerjy
and freedom of tae-daity-nt wirpar with tae high
er literary tone of the . tLrst-clfew monthly; aid it ii
very ctriain that no taagaiine haa givea "Wider
range to its contribators- or praterred tuelf to com
pletely frees tne narrow taiatnee cf party; tr of

ia either a power in the land or it is cothirg. Tbat
the Continental is not the -latter is abundantly
evdenctd by what it hat done-tj reflection of
iu counscLi ia ui tcy imporUrt public eveau, and
in th.e character and ' power of tija who are its
staunches, supporters.
Though but little more than a year has elapsed
tinea the Continental - was. first ebtbli3aed, it Lai
duriag tbat time acquired a sterength and a ti-ni-
i:aLce elevntingit to a petition far above that pre-,
viuusly occupied a strength and a political signifi
cance elevating it to a position far above that pre
viously eccapied by toy pabiicauea of the kind is
America. In proof of .which assertion we call at
tention to the lollowing facts: (
1. Of its policai articles republiahod ia pamphlet
form, a single one has had, .t hue far, a circulation
of one hundred aud(six thousand copies.
2. Fti;in. its literary - departmeut,, a.ing'e MriAr
novtl, "Among Ihe Pines," hos, within a very few
munmsold nearly thirty-fir a .uioUBand ecpies
Two other series of ita literary article have alto
been republished in book form, while the first por-
tioo of a third is already in press.
No more conolasive fact teed be aJledged to
prove the tha excellence of the contributions to the
Continental, or their extraordinary popularity; and
its conductors are determined that it shall not fail
behind. Preserving all "the boldness, vigor and
ability" which a taomacd journals have attributed
to it, it will greatly enlarge its circle of action, an
discuss, fearldsly and frankly, every principle in-
nolved d the great qaestioas ef the day. The first"
minds of the country embracing the man. most
familiar with its d-piomacy and most diftiauishei
fjr ability, are among its contributors; and it is
co aiore "llatterirg promise of a prospectus" to saj
ihat this "magoxiue lor the times" will employ theT
the first intellect in America, uadar auspice which'
no publication ever enjoyed belore in this eountry.
While the -Continental will express decided
opinion on the gieat questions of tne day, it will
cot be a mere political journal: much the larger
portion of it colamns will be enlivened, a hereto
fore, by tales, poetry and humor. In a Word, the
Continental will be found, uuUur it new staff of
Editors, occupying adositionand presenting attrac
tions never before found ia magmtine. TJ
