THE WILMINXy COXj JOURNAL, COS EDEUATK STATES OP AMERICA.. "WILMINGTON, . C, bATO&DAY, FEB. 4, 1866. Feom Bklow. Soma heavy firiog was heard here yesterday afternoon, d various surmista were induced as to wheDC3 the rtporti proceeded. On enquiry we learn that tbey prcd.d frcm two gunboats shelling Fort Anderson. We farther lt&rn thit tfi damage wru done to the Fort end that no ca aaltiea occurred among onr man. Some reports Bay that one Monitor took part, but of this we .have no certain Information. Tne ahellinjj took plaw about four o'clock. We thitk tone thirty to forty very htavy reports were heard jarring th2 ' window in town tfery perceptibly. "We have heard of no other movements below. P. S. We have sicca heard that jths-re were six of our men wounded, two of them seriously. There were two monitors in the river, but Leithir came Dearooufth to pagilc'pate. The f rt replied and put a shot through one if. the gun beats, cf mptllicg ter to haul cfi. Ttc g'.certJ imprtE?ioa Lea been that Sherman 'a army wcu'd wieai its ipte upon South Carolina. Such bare been the threats nade by that my, and such may pcsjibly be i:3 cmrg. We trust not, but we fcte little ground for any asacr&C3 that it will cot be. S me weak kneed people in Jscrth Carolina are ready toe -ucsil passive aubrau8:oa, or at least non-resjstar.ee or. the lice of Lis march through North Carolina, in the event of his attempting a march through this State. Tnty think that tbey will thus be enabled t'o esoupe any cf the suU-ringa denccaccd against South Carolina, or other States; tbey thick that it is tha policy cf the enemy to pursue a conciliatory "course in" North Caro lina. Let these people reflect, and they will see how un likely it 13 that a mercenary army, fljEhed with victory heated with plunder, excited by rapine, will care any thing about State or indeed consult anything else than their own instincts and desires. If deeds of out rage should bj commitfed in South Carolina these committing them will only bs made the mora ready for farther deeds-oi tha Eame or a worse chare cter in North Carolina. We onght not to be deceived. If tbire be away to keep back- tha tide of invasion, that way shou be tried, for iu ita trial and success rests the only real tope of ssfety. Castixk. Ey Iwaed Edoiyillb.
