REBEL VIEW OF GEN. suERMAN's yTEN-
T1ON5.-
From the At1anta appeal, Jnly Al
A more probable ISOLATION Of Gen. Sher-
mans policy is, that he will make detour
southW ard from Marietta, with the view Of
cross1pg the river md reaching the railroad
somewhere between this city and West Po1nr.
Such movement on his part would compel
General Johnston to move to the left, aud
tins lea7e Atlanta uncovered. But If such
really be the design of the willy Yankee COM
mander, we have IN abiding filth that he will
be ioiled in his purposes and brought to grief
in adEance Of Its Accomplishment. We ure
not without the hope, moreover, that rein
forcements viii yet come to the aid OF ouI
army in sufficient strength to enable 1t ia
drive back the invader Of our soil The
trans- Mississippi army Is now lying idle with
n: enemy to annoy it, and there is no reason
why it might not be transferred to this side
of the river. where its services are SO much
needed While the enemy arc concentrating
all their forces, it behooves us to do the same
thing, otherwise there is no alternative left
but Is continue to surrender the country to
the domination of the invading toe.

Urass, had turned traitor to his country, and
submitted to the intervention. He has not
done so, but Is at the head Of respectable

Gen. Dob1ado had deserted the Republic Is
also false He commands force ut Mon-

The intense interest which the rebel lead
ers in the Sou tn take in Interpretations of the
copperhcad leaders az the North and West
is remarkable. Illustrations of this fact are
seen in all directions. OF these, not the
least is letter by Henry 5. Foote,a member
of the Rebel Congress, from Tennessee, which
was published in the Richmond Wing in the
early part of last month and addressed .to
the free and independent citizens of the
Confederate States. The fore part of his
letter is occupied with general review of
the heroism of their armies, of the lack of
generous sympathy from the mcnarchical
governments of Europe, and of the influx of
what he calls 1.-THE thieves and robbers of
foreign lands, the wretched paupers of Ger
many and Italy, of Holland and of Ireland
to swell the union ranks.
All this even The says) was not enough but
the members of an ignorant, servile race have
been melted to instruction and deeds of dark
iniquity and hideous violence against those who
had kindly redeemed them from their original
state Of barbarity and besstliness, and instilled
into them the rudimen;s of civilization and
christianity had watched over their weakness
and protected it had sssiduously supplied
them with the necessaries and comforts of exis-
tence, and shielded them from all those evils and
suferings to which they are VIGOROUSLY exposed
in the hands Of their present hypocriticsl pro-
tectors- With such potential evidences of mis-
chief at work in that region which il is our good
fortune to possess, it is not at all surprising
that we have been compelled to witness such
scenes of devastation, of murder and rapine,
such as no authentic historian has heretofore
depicted and which surpass in horror all that
has been made known to us in the grim and
ghastly career Of an Alsric, Attils, Chen
gis Khan, or Tamerlane
The ragdbondism and rascdlity lrhich had
been for years accommodating in the populous
cities Of the North, hare been gathered up and
organized for our destruction. The ignoble
sons of plumber have been sent upon their in
fernal mission to the South, under the command
for the most part Of monsters in human shape,
in whose rufhanly bosoms was to be found no
pity for human suffering no respect for the Is
tablished principles of social justice no regard
for the well understood rules Of civilized war
no apparent veneraton Tor the plainly prescrib- +,
cd demand Of the Dsity Himself
