Gen. Sherman is taking good care of his COM
4nunicatons. He sent Gen. Thomas to Nash
rillo to got force organized against the Rebel
Gen. Forrest, and to protect tho long railway
limos from Nashville to Chattanooga, and from
chattanooga to Atlanta. The first fruits OF this
omission of Gen. Thomas are, the defeat OF large
|force of the Rebels near Dalton, on the 9th IN
slant. The railroads are getting rapidly repaired,
and there isno reason to doubt that they will be
Kept clear of Rebel raids. If Gen. Sherman was
able TO protect his communications while he was
contending for Atlanta and fighting great battles
against the whole force of the enemy in front,
he can surely do it now that he is in quiet pos
session Of Atlanta, and with nothing but his
rear to look 70. 1t should be understood, also,
that he has large supplies accumulated at differ
ent fortified points, and that temporary inter-
rup.ion Of the railroad does not disturb the dis
tribution of supplies to our army in Atlanta.

did not misunderstood Mr. Van Hoesen We said to
him:
"Do you mean TO say that you justify the Rebellion
on the part Of the Southern people and their waging
war agninst the Government I" He replied. Ts dor
This Mcclellan Eector declared that the Government
had always oppressed the interests Of the South by un

FRAUDULENT TICKETS SENT TO

The Judge Advocate General of this State has
within the week been caught violating the
spirit Of tho Soldiers Voting Law, and push
ing fraud upon the rights of the warrior
electors of New.York absent in the Armies. He
has been seen to send the ballots of one Party
only, to the Army of the Potomac-not the
tickets Of both political parties, as justice, man
hood and duty require him to send, if he sends
at all-but the Presidential and State tickets of
the Mcclellan concern alone. A bureau of the
State Government unquestonaby has been
used, and the money of the State undoubtedly
will be used, in this partisan misbehayior of tho
Peoples officer. Worse than this Mr.. Nelson
J. Waterbury has sent Comprehend Electoral
and State ballots to the army, fraudulently and
