Reliable information litis reached us of tbe cap ture of Lynchburg. Sherman was within twenty tniica of Wilmington, where a sanguine battle was fought, Sherman was successful, nnd scattered ti e rebel forces, capturing a number of rtbej guns.

The Constitutional Election was held in this State on the I2 ult., and a vote of over 20,000 cast for purging the State of Human Bondage. Gov.

By tlieir solemn act, the shackles are Mruck from more than two hundred and seventy-live thousand alavea. The whole social system is reconstructed on the basis ol honest industry and personal worth.

The relyd aut boritii s me strong in lavor of the plan, but the owners are strongly opposed to it, and only tyro thou-and bales have been put iu position where they could be destroyed by fire, with out endangering the whole city.

De Fontaine, editor of the Co lumbia South Vartdinion writes a let ter to the Richmond Whig descriptive of ihe evacuation of Columbia, in which he says : The worst feature of the euliie scene occurred on the day of which 1 wrile. A party of Wheeler's cavalry accompanied by their oHicet s, ilasln d into town, tied their hor.-e-s and 'ysle tuntieaUv as if they h.-.d b. en bred to thy bti.-itie-s, prveot tied io bn ak i: to the stn.es along M.iin -trett and n Ij hem ol their contents.

It is Said that two of thi -cavalry' drew pistols on GeiiiTul Hampton, who was i.'ti snpt ing to piotect a store, and threatened his life. Under these circtirisstat ci s you may we'd imagine that our peophi rather see ihe Yankees or old Satan ban sell, than a party of ihe nlnre-uiid Wheeler's cavalry. The barbarities comm tied by foine of them are rep resented to be frightful, ''life, liberty mid the pursuit of happiness" being perfectly incompatible with their pres ence. Common rumor says that Sherman' treatment of citizens and private pro perty wa uniformly lenient and con ciliatory. The Richmond J'lirturer, for fifty years the advocate of Stat'' rights, as expounded by South Carolina, has at last had enough of litem. The. thing of State richis, it now declares, is 'the weakness of our cause.' The theory was beautiful, 'lut in practice utterly defective." Governor Brown, of Ga., has been giving those Richmond phi-losph'-rs a dose of Stat.e rights which has taken the conceit entirely out of them. They arc disgusted with State rights.
