FROM sHERMAN's ARMY.
Nav YoRK. Nov. 20.

4NEN IoRh, 4NON. ~.
According to tho latest rebel papers,
Sherman's demonstration toward Ma
con was q feint. No attack had been
made on that place up to Wednesday
last, but when short distance from
it he turned north-eastward toward
Millodgeville, the capital of the State,
which town it is reported his cavalry
captured last Sunday night, subse-
quently burning the capital building
and the penitentiary. 1t is also said
a strong force of his army made q
demonstration on Augusta, within
twenty miles of which place his right
was repulsod with severe loss. This
movement on Augusta is also consid-
cred feint to distract attention from
Sherman's first real objective point,
which is surmised to be Savannah.
1t is prophosied that he will move
as directly as possible on the latter
city from Millcdgeville, and the belief
is expressed that the large Union fleet
which has been collected in the James
River, is destined for Savannah, and
will meet Sherman there.
The Augusta Constitut,onalist stated
that large fleet Of Union transports
had already arrived off the Georgia
coast. The same paper abuses, in
strong language, jeff Davis and the
other Richmond authorities, for not
sending troops in the State to impede
Sherman's movements, crying in des-
pair: !" Is Georgia to be left to take
care Of hcrsclf?"

Returned Union Prisoners.

New York, Nov. SO.
The H9uld's Hilton Head letter re-
ports the arrival of another small
batch of escaped prisoners from Co.
lumbia, viz: Captain Stonseirly, 9Th
Ohio; Capt Parmlee, 9TH Indiana
cavalry; Capt King, 113 Illinois In
fantry.
The Times says in reference to our
prisoners, now being exchanged at
Savannah. For months they have
been deprived of sufficient palatable
food that had beon rarely cooked, bo-
cause in a country Astounding
in fuel their jailors forbade them adj
oquate fuel at the prison pen near
Milan, Georgia. For some weeks
there had been no mea. or flour Civ
en- to the prisoners, and sweet pota-
toes in lieu thereof have been eaten
raw.
The exchanged prisoners are de-
scribed as follows:
The men are living skeletons, almost
naked, shoeless, hatless, shirtless !;
mon with no other garment than an
overceat men whose skins are black
ened by dirt, and hangs on their pro-
truding bones as loosely as bark on n
tree men whose very persons is sim
ply disgusting; exhaling an odor SO
fetid, 1t almost stops the breath Of
those unaccustomed TO it.
Reports of rebel surgeons show
that for a period of some months,
through which these reports extend,
there is a constant monotonous COM
plant against the treatment to which

NEWS.

The news from the vicinity of Rich
mond is unimportant in military
point of view, and Of no great impor-
lance otherwise save that it developes
in the rebel Congress serious disa-
greement in regard to State Rights,
out of which it is hoped such perma-
nent difficulty will arise as will mate
rally weaken the power Of the Con-
feds. We can as yet see no probabil-
tiles Of such result.
The main interest, North and South,
is at present centered in Sherman's
movements, concerning which all the
Intelligence received is through rebel
sources. If, as it appears, his design
was mainly ''change of base" with
the collateral purpose of destroying
the communications and as far as
practicable using up the supplies and
damaging the resources of the enemy
through the section invaded, which is
the richest in the confederacy, we have
vet faith to believe that he will be
successful, though the difficulties and
dangers are such as require the high
est order Of military talent in the
Chief, and the utmost efficiency and
completeness of discipline in his army
to insure success. We give elsewhere
the latest telegraphic news concerning
the movement.
In the Cabinet, Judge Bates has re-
signed, and Madam Rumor assigns,
as usual, a motley host of ambitious
aspirants for the vacant position.
The recent attempt to fire the city
Of New York, which only failed SEEM
ingly through the interposition of di-
vine Providence, naturally attracts
the most serious attention, and disclo-
ses a desperation on the part of the
projectors which should admonish the
people of all exposed localities to cx-
crcise the utmost vigilance to prevent
like attempts and to bring to just pun
ishmcnt their devilish originators.

AsrArIc CoTroS IF the intelligence
brought by the Bombay mail, which
reached England in October, is cor
rect, the amount Of the East India
cotton crop will soon begin to tell upon
the price of consumption. There
were at sea in the middle Of October
forty-eight ships, laden with 224,577
bales. One ship is credited with
6,951 bales. We used to consider
1000 bales good cargo, and when
three thousand were packed away in
Mobile or New Orleans, the feat was
thought prodigious.
These heavy imports from coun-
tries which were wont to raise little
more than what sufficed for their own
needs, is one of the results Of our war,
and will tend to lower the price Of
cotton cloths.-Seientifc american.
