aeg- W. have Atlanta dates, Of DC 18th,

and Richmond, Of the 9th, but they con-
tain nothing rclatiyeto the condition Of
the two armies. Our army in Georgia
occupies thesamo position near Marietta,
while the enemy are still in our front,
three miles North Of Big Shanty. The
enemy are gradually working round to
our right, and will, no doubt very soon,
mako an effort TO strike the Chatta-
hoochee North west of Marietta. Under
the guiding hand Of its great leader, our
army maintains tho same discipline, valor
and spirit that characterized tia month
ago, when Sherman first moved against
Rocky Face. A months retreating to
face the continually charging front Of the
Yankees hnsonIy increased the confidence
ofthe soldier and citizen in the ability
Of Johnston to completely overthrow
Sherman wherever lie chooses to measure
swords with our inyincble lcgions,
Ia Virginia Grant IS evidently. befogged.
lie has been bailled in every effort, and
now after irittering away about one fourth
OF his army, hardly knows what TO do
His present line is about two and a half
milesbelow the Mechanicsvi!lc turnpike,
towards the Pamunkey river. Grant is
therefore in position TO concentrate AZ
the White House to move towards Nal
yern Hill, in order 10 cross james river
or move again TO our right Buttog % to-
8t4le peninsula, is 10 repeatMcClcllan's dis.I
astei'; to remain and enlrench, is 10 spend
the summer in idlcness, and TO stand
where he is,will necessitate The evacuation
oEthe Southside by Butler, thus giving
us perfect concentration Of forces to
hun against him. So il will be seen the
man on horseback" is in an unpleasant
.predicament just now. But something
must be done by him, and that very
soon. The financial and political cendi.
ton of affairs in the North will not admit
OF a summers inactivity. The body pol
tito is ready to fall asundcr nov, and in
order to hold it together awhile longer,
and quell civil revolution at home, the
z man on horseback" will be forced |
to put spurs 10 his steed and spring for
ward in some direction.

PRAYgR.-For many weeks past daily
prayer meetings have been held in all
parts Of our State, and particularly SC
throughout the northern and eastern
sections.
At Macon, Columbus, Aberdeen and
the towns bordering on the line of the
Railroad, daily prayers have been offered
up for the Divine intcrposition in behalf
of our armies in the field, and have been
attended with great. interest by al de-
nominations oil Christians The work
still goes on.
Thus it is that our armies and people
are united, and with willing hearts and
hands joined together, and with humble
hearts and contrite spirits, ask His aid in
our great struggle for liberty, and to Him
the glory is given.
May our people continue TO bow in
humbleness before the giver of all good,
and with earnestness devote their whole
time TO the great and good work before
them.
That God has heard our prayers and
answered them, who can doubt. From
the beginning of the year TO the present,
not one disaster has befallen our arms.
The enemy, mighty host, has again and
again thrown himself upon us, to crush |
us to the earth, but our Generals, trust
ing in the mercy of God and the justice
Of our cause, have everywhere, and at all
times, defeated him, and he is to day a
rowed and beaten foe.
Let our people, therefore, continue to
hold prayer meetings. Let our ministers
urge upon all TO attend, that petition.
may 60 up to the Throne of Grace daily
for our deliveranoe, and God will assured
y as he has done, answer our prayersss

Below FoRr DARLING, James river,
| May 80, lSG4--The feeling Of dullness
and mo1otony which has for some days
past been creeping over us, owing to the
sesni-inactive state into which this fleet
appeared to be settling down. was broken
in upon yesterday by the advent in our
squadron Of runaway from rebel iron
clad Richmond, more generally known
as Merrimac No. 2.
This man states that he Isl native OF
Manchester, England; and was a resident
OF the South for some years, and that
since the breaking out OF the war lie has
been employed on various vessels In the
rebel navy. Himself and SOME other
|shipmatcs went 10 Richmond on liberty
Ia. aStk; LAT h4V.ag Gvc ille s.9fu.S...
ny sickened of the sol di$ant Southern
Confederacy, he resolved upon cacal,iiig
from its limits if possible. Starting from
Richmond on Monday last, he has been
the whole week cautiously working his
way down to, this point, through the
swamps and thickcts on the north bank
of the river. The accounts given by this
deserter relative to the rebel ironclads
and river delences are highly interesting
and if reliance can be placed in them,
they contain some important informa-
ton.
The substance Of his statements is to
the effect that Fort Darling, which now
mounts fifty guns Of heavy calibre, is
considered by the rebels impregnable to-
the attacks OF gunboats; that three iron,
clad rams-the Richmond the Virginia
andthe fredericksburg nov lying
in the river below the fort, making pre-
paiatons for an attack uptn our fleet,
in which they are TO be aided by several
fireships and a number of Internal macll-
ines. The programme laid town for this
raid is as follows: The fireships, cons 81
ing Of nine schooners,. laden with pitch
and turpentine, are to be towed down
within short distance Of our fleet, and
then sent enyeloped in flames, drifting
down unon The current towards us.
Closely following these burning vessels
arc TO be sent a host Of floating tornedoes,
so constructed as 10 explode upon com
ing in contact with any of our gunboats,
ard then, during the excitement and
confusion. which they hope these missiles
and the fireships will create, the rebel
are to make their grand attack |
upon the Union fleet.
The rams are said to be plated with |
eight inches, thickness Of iron over tLfeel
leet oisolid oak timber, and prof cting
rom the bow Of each boat is heavy 7
3ealS several feet in length, TO which is
lttacheda powerful Submarine battery
This battery i,intended to explode at the
concussion with either ofour
Monitors, by which means they hope 70
o cripple US as to make more easy work
or what follows
have thus given you in brief the sum
I'D substance of the rebel plans as relat-
d by thisrupaway. We only hope this
viii be adhered 10, but fear
he news is too good TO be true. Moth
ng would give greater satisfaction
our Monitor fleet than being
tforded an opportunity to test their
rowess against the Richmond rams, Of
hose power the rebel press has SO long i.
