Is SHERMAN, and what is SHERMAN goiog to do or 10
try? These questions are asked day and daily hour
and hourly. How can we tell 1t is pretty certain
that he is aiming at one of three points, to wit -
Brunswick or Savannah, Georgia, or Port Royal,
South Carolina end to the other of these places
be is determined TO make bis way just as last as be
sibly can. Will he succeed in doing so2 There are
certainly diff rerces of opinion upon this subject, but
the probabilities that he will. 1t is hardly worth
while keeping things so close. The Yankee fee. will
know where to go to meet him. 1t is on the Georgia
coast now, or at least very considerable uumoer oil
vessels, and still larger pun be in aud at Port Royal
Harbor. Northern paners JUDGED cay that Savannah
is the objective point of SHRRMANs winter campaign
and it may be 30. he worst feature abont the
matter is the degree of apathy that is said to exist in
Georgia We trust that this has been exaggerated, but
have heard it upon what could not but look upon
good authority.
How much food and supplies, generally, SHERMAN
may be able tC get in the portion of Georgia that be
traverses is more than we can even guess at. Not
enough to subsist many and many amin ais for any
great length of time should think. The enemy bad
been very fond Of representing tie South very poor
miserable and starving Now it quits them to discov
er that Georgia is !an1 flowing with milk and honey
and potatoes to say nothing of cattle and hogs
SHERMAN pushing down to Writer on the Georgia
coast if be can while HOOP designs wintering in Ten
nessee and PRICE in Missouri is certainly strange
reversal of positions, from which are not yet able
to deduce the probable conss quencrs.
