Our Late Successes.

Though we have not yet received Gen
Sherman's account Of his march from At
lanta to Savannah, it Ia abundantly clear
that he encountered no serious resistance
mot enough to cause him even once to
put his army in order of battle. Some
scared Georgia militia preceded his adj
vance, taking care to keep we'll out Of gum
ahot, and a brigade or two of cavalry hung
upon his flank aud rear, skirrnishing eau
tiously at intervals with his scouting par
ties or rear guard, and picking up the few
stragglers who fell out of his ranks, unab le
or unwilling to continue the march. The
habitual atfectation of reserve by the rebel
organs with regard to Gen. Sherman's po-
sitlOn aud movements was constrained by
their profound ignorance-they carefully
refrained from telling what they did not
know. When you hear from its adversa-
ries that the movements Of a large army
are involved in mystery, you may safely
conclude that il is meeting no formidable
opposition. For a well-appointed army,
adv ancing through hostile region, chooses
to cover 4 considerable breadth Of country,
so as to replensh its stores of forage and
food, and has its TANKS well screened by
cavalry, who bar all hostile observation Of
its batteries and columns of infantry. For
midable resistance soon ompels it to con-
centrate and show its teeth but the enc
my's admission that they do not know ex-
actly where its main body is, implies that
they are not resisting its advance. And
that is the material fact in this case. Sher.
man took the capital of Georgia without
firing gun, and might have taken Macon
or Augusta had he chosen to be diverted
from his direct course to either; but he
did not. He has marched through the very
heart Of tho Confederacy-through the
most fertile, wealthy and populous portion
of ssthe En- pire State Of the Southland
has encountered no opposition worthy Of
the name. Had a rebel army advanced
fighting from Harper's Ferry through
Chambersburg to Harrisburg, thence NOV
ing unresisted through Reading, Easton
and Trenton to Newark, and there placed
itself in free communication with q rebel
feet in Newark Bay, we should have con-
sidered the Union pretty well played out !;
Sherman's triumphant progress from Chat
tnnooga to Savannah.
Nearly two years ago Col. Grierson, after
a cavalry raid from the Tennessee to Baton
Rouge, pronounced the Confederacy "a shell
with nothing in it, Sherman's parade from
Atlanta to Savannah gives emphasis to that
characterization.
If we had only room for reproduction
of the bombast that has been the staple Of
rebel accounts OF Sherman's situation and
fortunes since he cut loose from Atlanta
the ominous whispers that the thunderbolt
was about to strike him-the whole cloth
iroops--,he dismal portrayals Of the ia.
tigue, Encouragement and decentralization
OF his forces-the bulletin Of fierce battles
fought by Wheeler with his cavalry, in
which our troopers were regularly cut up
and scattered-the reports that Sherman
was hurrying with all his might to take
refuge on shipboard at Darien. Brunswick

REBEr. CRY FOR HELP.-The following.
extract from the leading article OF the
Richmond Enquirer Of Dec, Is, will be re-
ceived MS the highest evidence Of the i'm.
whenever we are reduced so low that
we cannot maintain the contest then we
can secure liberty and nationality by the
sacrifice of slavery. But until we are pre-
pared To make this sacrifice it is no use
to look to Europe for help either by recog-
milton or intervention. All the military
authorities, those who command the ARM
les and those entrusted with the admins
tration Of the conscript bureau, are pre-
pared to say thar the population Of the
country will maintain q force in the field
that shall bear to that of the enemy the
proportion that the armies OF the two ma
lions bore to each other in 1863; then no
necessity exists for either arming the ne
groes or appealing 10 Europe tor protec-
ton.
.sBut if those authorities shall answer
then we submit that crisis is
upon US that demands the alternative of
snbjugation without slaves or irdepen-
dence by arming the negroes. There is
every prospect for four years more Of war,
enemy can carry the war without the risk
Of defeat. Ifthey know that we never fol-
low up our repulses, but must always
remain on the defensive, they know that
though they may not be able to defeat our
armies yet, we, will never defeat theirs. and
the war is merely question Of exhaus-
ton. Shall we prolong the wsr for the
sake of the negroes? Shall we sacrifice
our children to preserve Ourselves? Shall
we exhaust our country, destroy our noble
defenders aad endanger every institution
rather than test an experiment that may
give US the means Of recruiting out armies.
Of assuming the offensive aud Of conquer.
ing speedy peace? Neither rhetoric nor
argument nor authority car determine
whether the negroes will make for rs q
faithful soldier, experiment must test and
decide this question. Gen. Lee asks that
this experiment be made. But we hate,
detest and despise the enemy far more than
we love and admire Slavery, and il our
liberties cannot be gained hui by the sacri-
flee OF Slavery. we are prepared TO make
that sacrifice and to urge that sacrifice up
on our countrynen.
I'VE would return into the Union il
every slave could be returned to his mas
ter, and every guarantee the human inge-
nuity could devise were received for the
protection Of the institution. We prefer
liberty with free society to reunion upon
the securest basis Of slavery. Such We be-
ljeye to be the sentiment of the people of
Virpinis. But We know that great many
doubts beset this question Of arming the
negroes; and get the experiment ought to
be tested, and the fact asce rtained wether
the negroes will make soldiers W.
