October II has dispatch from Augusta dated
October 10, which says: "The correspondent
Of the Montgomery .LdR with Hoods army
says tho occupation of Rome was effected

was bloodlcss. When Sherman learned that
Hood had moved northward he crossed
the river with two corps and formed a
line Of observation at Winnings Station.
General Hoods line crossed the railroad al
Big Shluty. On the fourth tho two armies
held this position 10 each other without firing
suu. On the lifLh Sherman withdrew, rctl-
ring TO Atlanta. Our army then set 10 work
and etiectually destroyed the railroad from Big
Shanty to Oastenaula. All the bridges from
Marietta TO Dalton were destroyed. We have
strongly fortified Kenesaw Mountain. Jack

Resaca.
The Charleston M2rcTB, of Tuesday, Octo-

The rebels entered Resaca on Wednesday

On Friday there was considerable alarm at
Chattanooga, and every able. bodied man was
put to work on the fortiGcations.
At the last advices Gen. Fitzpatrick, with his

General Milroy was at Tullahoma, and Gen.

A private reliable source says, on Saturday

Gen. Sherman was pressing him closely.
Prominent military men say Hood's las

A. Ens,,.h Opinion of Mcclellan.


The London Standard copies the resolutions
of the Chicago Convention, and comments as
follows upon the platform and the candidate;
Such are the resolutions, and certainly very
pretty affair they are. We're the twenty mil
lions of the North TO homologate such nom
sense, we should look on the cause of common
sense, TO say nothing of patriotism and philan-
thropy, as gone! OF all the Generals that
events have brought forward, there is, we be-
lieve, not one lees entitled TO tho honors of
President, less worthy Of public confidence,
than Mcclellan. However amiable and gen.
tlemanly the General may be, he is certainly
wanting In oil the great qualities essential TO
the position. Never man failed more as Gen
cral Of the forces. To him, his incompetency,
and misconduct, We must ascribe the disasters
Of the earlier campaign, and much of the
calamity which has since arisen. We are, in.
deed, surprised that, under all the circum-
stances, Mcclellan could place himself In such
position, where, certainly, indignities Of the
most humiliating character await him. His
present Presidential ambition, We make no
doubt, will complete his defeats and disasters
In the ileld, and consign him to the retirement
from which nothing should have brought him
forth.

resolutions Of which the following is the soul
"Resolpcd, That, In connection with the pur.
pose to spread the gospel through tho word,
the results Of the contest on the cause OF mis-.
sions, and In view Of difrusng religion that
shall be everywhere adapted TO sustain just

and that shall tend 70 deliver the world from
the oppression Of slavery, as well as In the re-
lation Of It's members 10 the Government OF
this land, and their duty TO sustain that Gov.
crnment, this Board expresses its hearty sym.
pathy In the efforts to suppress the rebellion,
and gratefully acknowledges the divine inter-
position In the successes which have attended
the arms OF the nation, as an indication that
we shall again te one people, united under our
glorious Constitution, and united In our efforts
to spread the gospel around the world.p
Whoreupon," says an eyewitness, In
stead of referring the resolutions TO commit.
tee, as is usual, they were at once put 10 the
house, and the immense and most donsely
crowded audience signided their assent to them
by rising in body, and then, while standing,

If by inspiration, struck into America and
sung IL with a mighty voice that made the

and our Generals, called forth cheers" %.
