A gentleman from Sherman's headquar-
ters at Kingston, Ga, on the 9th, says that
General is, by this time, considerable dis-
tanee on the war-path His army consists
of the I4th Corps, General jeff c. Davis;
10th Corps, General Osterhsus; 18th
Corps, General Blair; and goth Corps,
General Slocum. He has, also, $1,000 cav
airy, under fitzpatrick, and brigade OF
artillery, making his total force between
So 900 and 10000.
The men are splendidly equipped, and
supplied with every appliance of war.
All the public buildings, depots, manu-
factories, &c, in Atlanta are rendered
worthless, and the railroads north and
south of the city, and all the defenses, are
destroyed.
There is to be no turning back, and
there has been nothing left behind of value
to the enemy.

presented to the United States Government
by that Of Brazil.
After careful inquiry it is sscertainsd that
there is nothing whatever 10 sustain the
reported rumors and assertions of Cabinet

Reports continue to prevail that Robert

Governor Brown, OF Georgia, on De-
serters and stFRgsIers from the
Rebel Army, sft
In Governor Browns Message to the
Georgia Legislature he makes the follow
ing confession:
It is fact that requires no effort at con-
cealment since the late announcement of
the President, in his speech at Macon, that
our armies have been weakened 20 an
alarming extent by desertion and strsg-
Cling The success of our cause and the
safety of our people require prompt action
to remedy the evil. Many of these men
have fought CALAMITY, and have left their
commands under circumstances the most
trying to which human nature can be ex-
Pt sed. As our armies have retreated and
left large sections of country in possession
Of the enemy, they have found their homes
and their families thrown behind the enc.
mies lines, where the latter are subject, not
only 70 insult and injury. but to great suf-
fering for the neeesssries Of life. Under
these circumstances their sympathy and
care for their families triumphed over their
patriotism and sense Of duty, and in an
unfortunate hour they yielded to their
feelings, laid down their arms and absn-
dOned their colors.
A strong appeal should be made to these
men to return to their companies, and
tree pardon should be extended to each
one who will do so. This is already offer
ed to them by General Beauregard, and
General Hood, and have reason to be-
lieve would be granted by the General in
command Of each of the military depart
ments. All who refuse to accept the par
don, and return, should be arrested, and
sent forward with the least possible delay.
He also says, concerning the robbsr
bands of deserters and struggling cavalry:
It is lamentable fact that bands of de-
serters from our armies, and small bodies
Of cavalry belonging to the Confederate
service, are constantly robbing and plum
dering our people oftheir stock, provisions
and other property. This is generally
done bv those robber bands under pfetext
Of exercising the power of impPessnaent, in
the name of the government or Of some
general who not only knows nothing of
iheir conduct but diapproves and con-
demDs it. They 60 armed and take what
shey please by intimidation and force,
having regard to neither age, sex or con-
ditiOn. They are not smenable to any
civil process, as there is not generally suf-
dcient force at home to arrest them, and
they pass on and cannot in future be iden-
Life1. If arrested and committed to pris-
On they will aid each other to escape by
force if necessary. They are a lawiess ban
Ditti and should be 50 treated.

The Riehm Snd Whig Lashes Davis for

In an article in the Wing Of November

themselves that it was a blessing to the
used-up and worn-out negro at the end Of
his faithful seVlce, to have kind master to
take care of him. But now the President
other view of the mstter. According e
his message, it is a rich reward for faithful
service to turn q negro wild. Slavery,
then. in the eyes of Mr.. Davis, keeps the
ne0ro out of something which be has cs-
raeity to enjoy; it depresses hin below
thc level to which nature has given him
powers to attain 1t hInders sne r. ogosbt9 y9sbi5
his pursuit of happiness. If the case be
Sc, then slavery is originally, radically, in
cursbly wrong and sinful, and the sum Of
all bsrbarism. Tnis is What Seward and
Sumner say and this is what Mr.. Davis
SAYS after them. They invoke the Federal
Congress to discourage and discountenance
slavery in the Territories; he invites the
Confederate Congress to consider
the expedieneey Of beginning TO
abolish 1t IN the STATES. I'D
This will never do. The slightest coun-
tensnce given to those unwholesome no
ticns may produce worse effects than can
be at once perceived. Not only our inva-
ding enemies, but those foreign nations
which are watching our struggle with keen
interest will be greatly struck by the sug-
gestion of the Message, and will look on
curiously to see how Congress and the
country viii deal with ito see whether
there were any real principle in our yea
for State rights, and our theory of the jus.
tice and benifeenee of slavery were moth
ing but dishonest sham all the while; and
whether the Northern people and ourselves
