But give me the fair one in country or city,

Who cheerfuily MARBLES some rustical ditty,
While plying the needle with exquisite art,

HOW TO RErAL1ArE.

The Wing, referring to the destruction
of rebel property in the Shenandoah
Valley, says: THE fell work is going on
by order of Gen. Grant, to destroy every
thing that will sustain life in the Valley.
There is one efectual way, and the only
one that we know of to arrest and pre-
vent this and every other SORT Of atrocity,
and that is, to burn one of the chief
cities of the enemy say Boston, Philadel-
phia, or Cincinnati, and let its fate hang
over the rest as a warning of what may
be done and what will be done to them,
if the present system of war on the part
of the enemy is continued. If we are
asked how such thing can be done, we
answer nothing would be easier. A mil
lion of dollars would lay the proudest
city of the enemy in ashes. The men
to execute the work are already there.
There would be no difficulty in finding
there or in Canada suitable persons to
take charge of the enterprise and arrange
its details. Twenty men, with plans all
preconcerted and means provided, select
ing some windy night, might FIRE Boston
in a hundred places and wrap it in flames
from the centre 70 the suburbs.
They might retaliate on Richmond,
Charleston, etc. Let tLem do SO if they
dare it is a game at which we can beat
them. New York is worth twenty Rich
monds. They have dozen towns TO our
one, and in their towns is centered near
lY all their wealth,

of 1866.

Sherman'S Official Report.

WASHINGTON, Tuesday Oct. IL.
Gen. Sherman's official report of the
Atlanta campaign is published in the Of
fetal .Army and Macy Gazette, this week.
1t is dated September Is, and fills twen-
ty columns of that paper. He estimates
the enemies strength to have been from
forty-fve to fifty thousand infantry and
artillery and ten thousand cavalry. He
says that be maintained about the same
strength du ring the campaign; the num-
Der of men joining from hospital and
furlough about compensating for the loss
in battle and by sickness.
The report is composed in Gen. Sher-
mans terse and trenchant Style and
forms an interesting history of, perhaps,
the most brilliant and complete cam,
paign of fhe war. He terminates his re-
cital with the following deserved tribute
to his subordinate commanders:
MY three armies in the field we're
commanded by able officers, my equals in
rank and experience--Maj. Gems. George
H, Thomas. ]. M. Schofeld and o. O.
Howard. With such commanders l had
only to indicate the object desired, and
they accomplish ed it. cannot over-es-
timate their services to the country and
must express my deep and heart felt thanks
that coming together from different
fields, with differedt interests, they have
co-operated with a harmony that has
been productive of the greatest amount
of success and good feeling. A more
harmonious army does not exist"

The Draft in Kentucky.

A delegation from Kentucky consisting
of the Hons. George H. Yeaman, w. P
d. Rush, and others, have called upon the
President to day respecting the draft in
their state. From their statements, it
appears that by the enlistment of of
Southern symPaahizeFs into the Southern
army, from Kentucky, and the enlist
ment of Kentucky negroes into regiments
from other states, the original enrolment,
upon which the present draft is founded
would largely and improperly increase
the burden resting upon the loyal people
of that state.
The Provost Martial General, to whom
the matter was referred, decided as fol-
loys: That the enrolment of that state
shall be corrected by deducting there
from the names of all non-residents and
persons who shall have been oousor;ptod
into the Confederate service, and also, all
negroes who have gone to other states, or
enlisted in other states in the Federal
service. Ane after the rolls are thus
corrected, the quotas heretofore assigned
TO the various sud-dlstricts, are to be cor
respondingly reduced. Gen. Fry's off,
cial letter will be published in a few
days.
