From ATLANTA.

Some one who writes himself "a reader
of the IntslLigeheer." has sent us copies of
the Atlanta, Ga, Register aud the Atlanta
LntelEssaesT, both dated the l7th Of Nay,
and both printed on very fair paper and
presenting a very readable and passable
appearance. We are surprised to see how
we'll they look, considering that Sherman
is so close to their Offices. Their price of
subscription, each, is SIS per month, say
$50 per year, or twenty Eve cents per single
number; no subscriptions taken for longer
term than three months. They advertise
ten lines. or one square, for $3.50, the
same that we get 20 esUts for. u
The latest news 10 there papers from Vir.
giniA is dispatch dated at Weldon, North
Carolina, May 18th, announcing Granite
defeat-lhAt Lee had driven him "across
the RapidAu with terrific slaughter"
Notwithstanding the close proximity Of
Sherman, things look very encouraging to
the editor of the IntelIgsnesr. He writes
thus;
1.-THE Yankee army is estimated at over a
hundred thousand men, and they are 6ght-
lug With desperate earnestuess. doubtless
presuming we are 10 small numbers. Our
army has never been handled so admirably
before. Il is splendidly apPortioued, and
an uuabated confidence exists in General
Johnston. A most notable feature Of the
field is that there is no struggling. The
prompt and efficient measures which have
been taken to guard the rear, has complete
~ prevented it"
