FROM THE ARMIES IN GEORGIA.
The Southern Express Company has oblig-
tngy furnished us with Atlanta papers in advance Of
the mails We get from them the following summary
Of news in relation TO the armies in Georgia:
The LATEST PROM THE ARMIES.
Our latest Atlanta date the 29th in which the stu
alton is thus summed up
During the past two days this army has been doing
desuOry battle at various points on the line and dur
ing the entire time with telling ieffects on the enemys
forces. -
During Thursday the enemy expended great deal Of
their fire seeking lines but with only partial sue
cess portion Of the day there was some furious
fighting at isolated points but great length OF line
was engaged at any one time. However, lsge num-
Der of our wounded and the most reasonable
reports have that the slaughter Of the enemy
was immense at every onset they made. They were
repused terribly by the cool and steady fire Of our vet
Grams who did not leave their commanding and mpreg
nabe position. The army at night remained nearly III
the same position occupied in the morning but with
the advantages retained OF any positions that had been
On Friday the firing commenced very heavy early in
the morning and continued extensively AID furioqsly
al day. Along toward evening the sounds receded,
seeming to indicate retiring Of the enemys lines. AT
late honr last night the wounded were coming IN on
the train In large numbers thus indicating that heavy
fighting had occurred during the Day but we could not
learn any satisfactory particulars. We have no doubt
that hus far the blessing OF God has rested on our arms

Our troops are In line Of battle the right resting on

Ing to the church and from thence running nearly west
toward Dallas.
We have erected considerable Notifications along the
line The enemy eyinces but little disposition to attack
and seem inclined ~ the right In the direction
OF Etowah river and the railroad.
Ii is understood that Gen. Johnston Is pressing them
on the right heavily, 10 defeat their plans
Yesterday there was considerable skirmshng near
Eew.Hope, church. and the enemy was repulsed, but
with what loss we are unable TO say.
We have no intelligence Of any movements to-day.
The Conftdsraey has the following:
There general engagement to-day as has been
frequently rumored but general and spirited skirnishes
at intervals along the lines. At New Hope church this
morning Stewards division, which had five times re-
pulsed the enemy in that vicinity rePulsed them the
sixth time.
The enemy appears to be gradually advancing his
lines sheng the woods, and bearing toward our right
as II he designed to get back upon the line Of the rail-
road.
our lines are being gradually contracted con-
lecture for an advance.
Sherman, In present position, having been checked Is
apparently making an effort to flank nearer to the goal
Of his ambition In this his designs viii certainly be
anticipated We still incline to our original opinion
that the battle 1t is fought will take place much
nearer the Chsttahoochee and when il occurs will be
decisive and in our favor.
