eoA VICTORIES.
The JEFF. Davis organ OF this city, in Its
,ssus Of yesterday morning, contains half
column head full of the most unblushtng
fnleehoode, omissions and misconstructlons
relattye to The news Of the day. As but 1e"
people, especially loyal ones, read or see
this treasonable concern, We print 1oe neao
entire: -
E,ec,,onrcr1ur documents from sta7-
TN, ;, q 1nftfcc,usl attempt to place the mil
;..- a,,nat,on in roseato light" eher-
@ .n.o onr,rrd in repairing railroads destroy
,,. +1,s rebe]s.n Forrest escapes across
~. Tcnnessee,' "eheridan falls back to
meods,ock, Devastation BY Federa7s in
49, Shenandoah Valley" Burbridge's re-
1,,.e At saltyflle" "The assault upon
Buffers 1ines.'' t'Cspture by the rebels Of 10
caupop, 400 to 500 prisoners, and soo to Soo
horses" "Bogus report Of vlctsry by
Sheridan over Longetrcet." Federal re-
treat In East Tennessee-" ~ More failures
In England" -..-...
twill oe remembered in this connection,
that Tucecsy, the day on which tnls ap-
pcared. WINS set npart for the elections IN
OHIO. Indiana and Pennsylvania TWAS fofthe
purpose OF affecting the election In the Two
former States that tbls Infamous perversion
Of facts was printed. Co2pcrhcads hitherto
heye been III the habit Of denying that victo-
r3es worked unfayorab]y to their prospects,
Ecrc We have the most positive proof Of the
fact, Not alone is every favorable movement
fo1turtd d into failure, and made to appear
rebel SUCCESS, but the brilliant affair
Of Sheridan in the Shenandoah IL en-
tirc]y omitted. Thcre is no alusioa to
iiin the head, aud tue dispatches from sscre-
tssy Stanton, Gencrnl Stevenson, and
Gcncral Sheridan himself which Came
through the &st ociated press channels, and,
Of couree. to that paper IS to .ll others, are
absolutely spprrtss<d. What commentary Is
this upon The ISctnudtd patriotism aud
Unicnitm ot the Cclp.rhead party! They
dare lot rublieh Union victories in the field
for fear Of injury 70 their cause. They sup
press m official bulletin from the General
coura1 dirg, announcing Ills brilliant sue
ccee, because it endanctrs the political pros
pects OF = r,ili.ary heck and q Pence sneak!
l. there Denocrnt SO hcnighted, SO blind to
the interests OF the country, SO lost to ua-
tional pride, that 1c will sit tamely by and
countchsnce such IN Outrage upon our GAL
lant soldiers, achieving glorious victories for
the integrity Of the country.
But the suppression OF facts Is no woree
tEan the pc1yereion. "GenerM Sherma1 en-
gagged In repairing railroads destroyed by the
rcbelE-" True, but Why not add that he
achieved most glorious victory q! A1atoo
M that his army 1s psrfect1y secure, and
better off Mt Atlanta than It wonld be in
csmp: that he has abundance of provisions
II ell Lis communications are cut off; that
Hood failed, and Jailed niserab1s, In his at.
tempted flauk movement. JEFF. DAyis him
self is more honest than his organ here, for
he .amits that ssAll his calculations have mis-.
car1itd in Northern Georeia." "ForreEt
escapes across the. Tennessee Why not
add that he escaped after severe defeat, and
that sudden r3se in the river alone saved
lin, tSberid.n falls back to Woodstock"
Why? To gather strength for an impetuous
ard lighting like dash upoa the rebels,
whom be scattered like chaff, winning one
