GENERAL HARDEE's FAREWELL Be
fore leaving the Army of Tennessee for
his new department at Charleston, Gen
eral Hardee took leave of his old COM
mand. Amid cheers for "Old Reliable
the veteran commander came forward
and made very touching little speech
to the soldiers.
In conclusion, he told them the com
handing general would, in few days,
cross his army over the Chattahoochee
on an offensive campaign, the plan of
which he knew to be excellent, and he
promised them that if they would but
do their duty and give him cordial and
hearty support, and do such fighting as
he knew they could do, that the greatess
success of the war would be the result :,
that Sherman would undoubtedly be
drawn from Atlanta.
His speech was received throughout
with the widest expressions Of enthnss
asm, and upon bidding them an afies-
tionate farewell, the crowd rushed to-
wards their loved commander, and thou
sands Of the old heroes from Arkansas,
Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee and
Texas had the melancholy pleasure of
taking 10y the hands and saying farewell
to the war-worn veterans who led them
on so many bloody fields.
The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1864-10-15

The SITUATION IN GEoRGIA.-A cor
| respondent of the Montgomery Gala
bama) Appeal, writing from Hoods
headquarters, says that Sherman has
three millions of rationS south of the
Tennessee river. Most of these are at
Chattanooga. Previous to the raid of
Wheeler, he had one million, but while
the road was interrupted ten
days --twenty heavy trains were prepared,
which were rusned through in one day.
Sherman feeds at least one hundred
thousand men, including his troops and
the hangers-on of the army. This is full
rations for thirty days, and may be made
to last sixty. With what he can gather
up in the country, he may be able to
feed his army ninety days. He adds:
Most of this stuff is at Chattanooga,
the road below that point having been
occupied in the transportation of railroad
material and quartermaster stores. 1t
is hoped that Forrest will allow but little
more to come to the latter place; and
plans are on foot which will probably
lock that at Chattanooga so fast that it
will require the bulk of Sherman's army
to unbolt it. One third Of this stuff
ought to be destroyed by well advised
expeditions.
SHOULD Sherman advanced in sufficient
force to threaten seriously our cities and
manufactures further south, Hood will
pouHce on his weakened lines and ruin
his reserve stores and thoroughly de-
stroy his railroad. There is, indeed,
little to tempt to advance, as it will re-
quire long marches and heavy fighting
before he can reach point where he can
do us the least mischief beyond robbing
citizens.
General Hoods base is still behind
him. lie can fall back, in case the
exigencies of events require it, in any di
rection except that covered by about
fifly-five degrees, of which Atlanta is
very nearly the centre.
major llorback, OF the Army Of Ten
nessee, has been sent to LaGrange as
post quartcrmaster IN the place of Major
W. +. Aver, who has been appointed
chief quartermaster of the Army Of Ten
ncSSee.
"ltis stated that General Hood is tear
ing up the tracks of the Georgia, Macon
aad West Point roads. Seventy miles,
it is stated, of the Georgia road will be
torn up, and the Macon road to Griffin,
and the West Point road to Newman
"Ali the cotton at Palmetto has heen
brought away safely, A large quantity
had been stored away at that point.
"The Macon Mtclligcncer states, it is
rumored that Hood has captured whole
corps of the enemy, amounting to seven
thousand, in the rear of Sherman's
army"

COMMENCEMENT Of HOOUS
1DVd NOE

There is no improperly now in giving
some account of Hoods departure from
Sherman's front for his rear. The letters
given below, giving description of the
march, are particularly interesting, from
the fact that they are written by sol
dier, and show the exultant state of feel
ing in the Army of Tennessee. They
are from the Augusta Constitutionalist,
and the first is dated
OCTOBER lon the evening of the

previous, grapevine" messages had
been constantly received that the Army

sages seemed to be, in a measure con-

Gritty to their places. Stewards corps,
with Loring in front, Walthall in the cen.
tire, and French in the rear, marched to
the Chattahoochee river and crossed at
Pumpkintown. The crossing of the
corps was grand sight. From tho lofty
hills which crown either side of the river.
the long serpentine line of glittering arms
and bristling bayonets glistened in the
rays OF the declining sun; and as the
pontoons at so great distance were in.
visible, il seemed as if the men were

which iIlumined their countsnances,
