FROM sHERMAN,S ARMY

From letter in the Chattanooga Gazette of
August 1ith, dated Atlanta, August 9th, we
gather the following particulars:
Hood is showing good pluck. He does not
refuse to fight when good opportunity offers
itself. Without doubt, he has larger army
than has before confronted Sherman: bat, If
he does not change his base soon, he will need
somebody to help him let the Yankees alone.
Deserters report that reinforcements are con-
tnually arriving from Mississippi, Alabama,
and other parts. They are mostly conscripts,
or State troops, and are brought in squads of
from fifty to four or flve hundred.
The private soldiers demand that the result
shall be determined here. They say that they
have left their homes, their families, many Of
them have come with them to Atlanta, and If
they cannot whip the Yankees now, they never
can elsewhere. Many of them declare openly
that they will not follow the rebel army on
another retreat. This threat, however, is too
much on the familiar ''last ditchn style, to be
relied on.
The report lately circulated through the rebel
camps, that Johnston was again placed in COM
mand, turns QUITO be false. 1t was probably
started by the enemies of Hood.
The 23d corps went in gloriously on the ex-
treme right, day before yesterday. 1t reliev ed
Wards formerly Butterfield's) division, of
the 20tn corps, on Wednesday, and about 4
o'clock p. m. on Thursday charged the enemy,
driving him across the Montgomery railroad
Heavy cannonading, occasiona lily interspersed
heard from the extreme right to- day FRIDAY. }
There has also been heavy skirmishing in front
OF the 4th and 2Oth corps. The line OF glitter
ing bayonets that encircles Atlanta has been
gradually contracting, until shells may be
thrown into the very heart of the city from al
most any part OF our works. In several places
our lines approach within mile and half OF
Atlanta
The railroad bridge across the Chattahoo-
chee, at Vining's Station, is nearly completed.
The first train Of cars passed over it to- day
AS the train came laundering along the track,
whistling defiance to the enemy cooped up
within the Gate City, and groaning beneath its
load of hard tack and other army staples, it
was greeted by enthusiastic cheers by our boys
all along the line, for miles in each direction.
We almost felt sorry for the poor Johnnies
who were confined in their rifle pits, and had
not heard "toot" from their own cars for
quite q week.
