New York, Dec. lS.-Thc Richmond
Engujrer, of the 10th, has scmi-othcial
editorial in favor Of armng slaves and says
Gen. Lee is in favor of the proposition.
The Enquir0 says When We Supplicatc
European Nations for help we must be
prepared to receive it on their condition,
which will be the abolition of slavery.
Ii also asks: shall we prolong the
War; sacrifice our children and destroy our
country for The sake Of the negroes. 1t
concludes: 1--WE hate to detest and de
spise the enemy far more than we would
save slavery
A telegram to the Richmond Wing,
from Lynchburg, the l4th inst, says:
\ body of Yankees returning towards
Beans Station, encountered our forces al
East Xollicoffcr Station, East Tennessee
road, miles west of Bristol, where fight
was said to be progressing at last accounts
The Richmond Sentinel of the'l6th says;
Foster is quiet under his failure on the Sa.
vanah railroad and Sherman has seemingly
despaired Of opening communication with
the sea at Beaufort.
The capture of Fort McAlister is an
nounced The liability of its capture has
been well understood. Sherman will now
be able to get supplies by way Of Ossabaw
Sound Should he capture Savannah he
will have exchanged a city in the interior
for city on the coast which has been com
petely closed to commerce since the loss OF
Fort Pulaski in 1862.
Holmes County farmer. [volume] (Millersburg, Ohio) 1857-1926, 1864-12-22

Savannah, via Charleston, for some days,
showing conclusively that General Foster
had met with success in holding the Charles
ton and Savannah road,
THE FORCE IN SAVANNAH.
The rebel force defending Savannah is
under command of Bcauregard, llardcc and
Smith. What its strength is there arc no
reasonso flearning positively, but 1t isspokcn
of, by the Southern papers, very large.
1t may be large enough to hold Savannah
for long time and still not surrender over
twenty thousand, but it is evidently not of
sufficient magnitude to meet General Shcr-
man in the open field successfully. 1t is
scarcely probable that this army will be cap
turedif the fall of Savannah is accomplished.
There is one avenue of escape, the Savan-
nah, Albany, and Gulf road, which, though
it terminates abruptly in the extreme south
erly portion of the State, would still be a
means of escape which the rebel generals
would scarcely disdain. This can be closed
to them, however, by destroying the bridge
over the Ogcechee at Warp, sixteen miles
from Savannah.
COOPERATION BY THE NAVY.
1t is not unreasonable to suppose that
General Sherman waited after the 10th inst.
in order to give the navy an opportunity to
participate in the attack upon Savannah OF
in order to enable General Foster to CO.
operate directly with him. In this view OF
the case we may not reasonably expect the
fall of Savannah Immediately, although il
may have taken place already. That it viii
fall there can scarcely be doubt.

The news from the armies of Sherman
and Thomas is Of the most gratifying
character. They seem to have met with
such success as has not been achivcd for
the Federal armies for long time.
From Sherman we have the announce.
