was the resort of persons of both sexes. He also

SHERMAN HALTING TO GRIND CoRS-HIs FORAGE
SHORT.
From. no Augusta ConaffutioHaHsf, DecsnBsr3
Since our last report, war items have been Of
the sCantieSt description. Sherman, from all
reliable sources, seems TO have halted TO grind
corn. As he tends towards the barren counties Of
the South, it became necessary TO make the pro-
per provision.
His ioraging parties are constantly driven in
by our cavalry and compelled 10 hug the main
body. His forage is reported to be short On
Yesterday morning, WaynesborO was approached

LATEST NEWS RECEIVED AT TAUGUsTA-sAyANNAH
sHERMAN's DESTINATION.
From he augusta CoasiitutiOHaiist, December O.
The very latest intelligence from the direction
Of Louisville reports the enemy as still in stat4
quo. No move towards the city had been made
ing.
An escaped Confederate prisoner states thai he
mingled freely with fitzpatrick and his crew. The
Yankee General and his official satellites made
no conceslment of their objective point, which
they proclaimed to be Savannah. Our cavalry
has been still further reinforced by large and
splendid veteran command. All reliable accounts
agree in putting the enemy's force down at thirty
thousand infantry and Ave thousand cavalry.
We are amply able to take care Of any such num-
bers. The main body of Sherman's army had
not budged at last accounts. General Sherman
will find us prepared TO meet him at any and
every point. We know the value of our strategic
strongholds, and are prepared to maintain them
TO the bitter end. General Wheeler writes that
he has whipped Fitzpatrick throughout, doubling
him up upon the main body.

A lady from Miledgeylle reports grand ball
the last night the Yankees remained there. Most

white female of any class. General Socum per

promising her forty dollars a mouth; that she
should ride TO Savannah in a carriage, ana be sent
70 New York, where she should be free.

WAsHNGroN December 8.-From information
derived from Rebel desertsrs and other sources.
it is now certain th1t the Richmond and Sayau-
nah journals have succeeded in concealing some
Of the most important and interesting facts In
connection with the great expedition Of General
sherman. From various quarters | learn tho
following facts
J.. That General Shcrman's march, 40 to the
tine he reached VI Hen, was practically unJl-
"a, he unlJ uguung ing Clva ~ skrmIslcs

counts for ShCrmg1's slow movements he having
made thorough work In laying waste th3 country.
q His march has created Tremendous panic.
He has swept all Central Georgia clear Of grain,
forage, horses, mules, and negroes. Il is sup.
posed he will reach the sga.C0ast with two able
ranks. IL is understood that General Sherman
Will allow only able bodied males to accompany
bis army, as women and children would neces-
tarily impede his march.
g. Not having fought any battle in Central
GtOIgia, and having kept his army we'll together
ltOr the Rebels do not claim tl have msde any
captures OF men) General sherman will rcsrh
the coast with his army in splendid ightng trim,
aud au abundance Of ammunition and shot
his is fact Of immense importance, in view OF
the battle which is inevitable before coming in
sight Of blue water.
l. There is the best reason for believing that,
in ADDITION tO the negroes, General Shprmtu's
army will be reinforced by some ten thousand
Union prisoners. There is deserters story that
the prisoners in camp near Millen, hearing of the
HpprOach of Sherman, oyerpowerel their guard,
and scattered themselves over the country like
hungry wolves.
Exactly how many reached the Union army Is
not known, but the story seems probable aud Is
believed in high circles here.
EAll things considered, it is now almost certain
that Sherman will reach the sea-coast in safety,
with bis army intact, after having inflicted i'm
monse damage upon tho enemy.-N I. World.

December 8, z. M.-Yesterday morning at day.
light, the 9th Corps, with the Sd Division Of the
I'd, and two b rigades Of Greggs Cavalry, started
south. They were heard from yesterdly afer-
noon, and lad crossed the Nottoway river, on the
Jerusalem road, without meeting opposition of
any note. They crossed on pontoons, which
they took up after doing so.
Deserters who came in to-day state that Ma.
homes Division was sent OFT yesterday morning
to meet them, but as no firing in that direction
has been heard to day, it is not believed that any
engagement has taken place.
DEcEMBER 9, A. MA reconnoitring party
of cavalry went out on the left yesterday after
noon, and striking the Rebel pickets on the
Vaughn road, drove them to Hatchcrs run, a
distance of over two miles, where they had breast
works erected, and where they made a stand.
Skirmishing continued for some time, when the
object of the movement having been accomplished,
the party returned. Our loss was seven men
wounded, that of the enemy is not known. Some
of those who accompanied this party report that
firing was heard in the direction of Stony creek,
which would indicate that fighting was going on
between General Warren and the enemy.
Reports are current that the evacuation of
Petersburg may be looked for but very little
attention is paid to these rumors.
