sOUTHERN NEWS.

NEW YORK, Nov. %.
Notwithstanding the anxiety unmistake-
ably eVinced BY the rebel authorities and
newspapers of Richmond to conceal the
advices of Shcrman's movements, they
cannot avoid disclosing great deal in re-
gard to them, but probably not half they
know. We have all they were willing TO
tell, up to last Friday.
An engagement, the Richmond papers
say, occurred last Wednesday on the west
side of the Oconee River, near Toombsbo-
70, where the Georgia Central Railroad
crosses the river, between the rebels and
large force Of Sherman's cavalry, in which,
of course, the Union troops we're repulsed.
They are said to have been still on the west
side of the Oconee on the following dsy.
The Augusta CoHstitrtionaEist says the
the Railroad bridge over the river was
burned by them on Sunday
The report of the burning Of Milledge-
vile is said by the Richmond editors TO
lack confirmation, though it is believed
that.a portion Of Shermsn's force has been
there.

State House, Governors mansion, and the
Penitentiary there were burned. The
town Of Gordon was also captured.
The Governors Of South Carolina and
Georgia have issued proclamation calling
out all the males Of those States between
the ages of l6 and So.
A Correspondent of Richmond Dispatch
says:
The Yankee Government can well afford
to pay one million dollars per day for the
information which the Richmond papers
furnish to it gratis; regarding the move
ments of Sherman in Georgia.
Late rebel papers, in giving accounts of
the appearance of Esrly's army in front
of Sheridan's lines, on the 18th inst, and
its sudden fight with the Union cavalry st
its heels, furnish the same explanation of
his movement on that occasion as our cor
respondents gave at the time. Early had
| understood that a considerable portion Of
the Union army had left the valley. He
found out his mistake, and was glad to get
back up the valley as expeditiously as pos
stole
The Richmond Whig says there are now
| only about four thousand Yankee troops
! at Newborn, Norsh Carolina.
The Charleston Mercury learns on good
authority that tEere are upwards OF two
thousand "skulkers' belonging to the reb-
ell army now in South Carolina.

The use of some shells recently, of ex-

Guns are now on their way here which

With these guns in position and pro-

W WASHINGTON, Nov, 70.
Judge Bates resignation as Attorney
General will take effect on Wednesday.
The trial of Colonel North, Jones and
Cohen, charged as acting contrary
to tho law in the matter of obtaining New
York soldiers votes, will not be resum-
ed before the 9th of December.
A statement appeared in one Of to-day's
papers enormously attributed to
the Washington agent, of the press that
commander Collins has been ordered 10
return to Bahia, Brazil, with his
quasi prize officers and crew, and purport-
ing to give the result of the action Of the
Government upon the subject, with other
assumed facts in the same connection. No
such kilograms originated with the agent
and reporter Of the Associated Press, but
there is the best of authority for saying
that all statements to the effect that diff
ferences of opinion have arisen in the
Cabinet concerning the case of the pirate
Florida, or that decision has been made
for or against her restitution, are without
foundation.
No action of the Government has been
taken in the case, and no discussion of it
has been hold.
The Navy Department authorizes the
following statement:
The original order for the Wachusetts,
upon her arrival at Hampton Roads, was
to proceed to Boston for repairs, taking
with her the prisoners captured OF the
Flerids, to be consigned to Fort Wrrren.
Before the orders reached the vessel the
prisoners had been sent to Point Lookout,
and in a day or two they were transferred
by the army authorities to the Old Capt.
tol. They were Immediately ordered back
to be returned to the Wsehusetts, which
at once sailed for Boston.
