One of the most gallant exploits of the war, even if its hero wan a Yankee officer, was that performed bv that daring sailor. Lieut. Cushins. when he entered the Cape Fear river, landed1 at Johnson and actually invaded Gen. Hebert'a headquarters and carried off one of his staff. As but a comparative lew hive ever heard the actual particulars of this affair, we republish here an article in thi Philadelphia Times, written from Society ilill, S. C, snd isim ply signed I V (fcj T M, . A W W k b . A MIIV.IIII' ll. 1 A XJV author says: The most dariug feat of all Lieut. Gushing's many exploits is yet to be told. I allude to the capture of General Louis Hebert's Inspector-General, Captain Kelly, right out of headquarters, within forty feet of a garrison of two hundred men and five pieces of heavy artillery, in the wiriter of 18C4, atSmithville, near the mouth of Cape Fear River, North ; Caro lina. I The writer of this was j Asst. Adjutant-General's Clerk, on the staff of General Hebert, commanding the de fences at the mouth of the Cape Fear Iliver, headquarters at Smithville; N. C, and had his sleeping apartments in the same building where tho office was. I The General's house was just across the street, in the rear of the office, and opposite the garrison quarters, j where the troops quartered. The 'river was in front of all. Lieutenant dishing, in a small Boat with six men, jcame in front the blockading fleet, passed Fort Cawell and the works j on Bald Head, up the bay, and larded at some old satl works, just a hundred yards or so above the Smithvil'e battery, Fort Pender; came up into the village past the garrison quarters, and across the street to General "Hebert's house. The- house was 'a large building with! a . piazza in 'front. If was about- 11 o'clock at night. The commissioned staff of General Hebert consisted of Major Wm. D. Hardeman, Assistant Adjutant General; Capt. John Kejley, Inspector General, and Lieutenant Vaery Hebert, Aide-de-camp. The General and his aide had their sleeping apartments up-stairs ; Major Hardeman and Capt. Kelly down stairs in . the first toom, next to north en trance. Lieutenant Cushing and his men came in at this entrance. The two Con federate officers were undressed and about to retire, when Major Hardeman, hearing the foot-steps on the piazza and sup posing they were made by his servants, who sometimes frequented tho front piazza at night,, raised the sash to bid them retire, when a heavy 1 navy pistol was thrust into bis face and a demaod to surrender made in a firm, low tone. But Hardeman was a man of iron nerve and great bravery. He saw and comprenen ded ttte situation at a glance, and, push ing tho pistol to -one side, ho drew down the sash and es caped but of the back entrance ot the house, telling Capt. Kelly,, as he passed out, to follow him, as "the enemy are upon us." Kelly did uot comprehend, or was pushed too closely by the Federals, and tailed to follow, and was captured. Cushing, find ing that some one had escaped, at once se cured Kelly in hiij night clothes, and beat a retreat to his boat, and succeeded in get ting back to his fleet safely with his priso ner. General Hebert happened to be in Wilmington that night. Lieutenant HeV ert heard the noise below, but had the presence of mind to keep quiet, and in the hurry escaped capture. Next day, under a flag, a note was sent off by Capt. Kelly to Major Hardeman, 1 who met Lieutenant Cushing, on the beach below i Caswell. Capt. Kelly's !runk was sent to him, and Lieutenant Cushing expressed to Major Hardeman his sincere regret. that General Hebert had beeii absent, and hoped when he next paid him a visit he would find him at home; he was somewhat consoled, how ever, iti finding his Inspector-General, Capt. Kelly. Thus ended the most daiiug and partially successful exploit cf Lieuten ant Cushios. . . Last Night. Cal Wagner and iis fine troupe showed here last night to a fair and appreciative audience. We noticed a greater number of ladies were in attendance than we have ssen at a minstrel performance for years. There are two features about Happy Cal's troupe which Uvc are pleased to chronicle. First tho absence of' any thing pertaining to vulgarity and second its entirely originality. Cal was in his hap piest mood last night, and showed up to perfection. Sam Price: Oh, somebody ought to shoot him I The' set! of that under lip is enough to make a person say lie's a bad man. The "Queen City Quar tette" is simply superb , and should be heard if you love music. Wattcrs and Kelley arc hard to beat ami are a host in themselves. Saroay isfine thoug he his not up to what we expected. If you want to laught and grow fat, sec Gal and his happy family to-night. Another Freshet. The Cape Fear is again on the rise and the prospects arc that this freshet will be a tremendous one. Xeaterday morning the water was 30 feet above the ordinary level at Fayetteville and was then rising rapidly'at tha rate of 18 inches an hour. Heavy rains and snpw in the interior is what's the matter. . " CTRDA Y, FEBRUARY 2 1878. I NO 5 . Meteorological. From the U. S.

Sick Headache, The true cause of sick headache lies 1 . deep in the patient's idosyncrasy, and is developed by a hundred different causes. The advice, then, to sufferers is to give as much tone to their nerves by adopting all thpse methods which experience has shown to be good, and then avoid, so far as practicable, all those causes which are known to excita an attack. A writer in an old reliable British Medical Journal says: I 1 ' - j 1 "I need scarcely describe a sick head ache how one rises in the morning more dead than alive; perfectly unable to swal low the smallest particle of food, and of ten perhaps actually sick; how the head throbs, and the pain i3 increased by the slightest movements; how one prays to do lelt alone in the utmost quiet, so that he may, if possible, sleep. To other per sons the sufferer looks extremely ill, very pale, dark around the eyes, and with con tracted pupil. To himself his head feels hot, aud the application of cold most refreshing. The clamminess in the mouth: the i nausea, and general castrio distur bances are secondary, and have no con nection with an improper meal, and thus are in no way relieved by the two frequent ana ignorantly administer purgative. This is not needed, and has no eood re sult. The only remedies 'which are. of any avail are those which act on the ner vous system, such as hot ten and coffee : or, after the stomach is quiuter, and the more urgent symptoms havo'passed off, a ittle wine or ammuonia. Ii. the headache take more; the form i of hem icraniaj then remedies arc occasionally, lawful, as the ocal application of tho bisulphide of car Don, or galvanism, hml internally the bromide ofpotasium.- Thistis the onlv drug that I have seen to be really servi ceable. While nausea exir.ts ; and the worst symptoms prevails c vei 1 this remedy is ot no avail." Bishop Lyman's Appointments. February t: 14 Thursday Clinton. 15 .Friday p. m.
