Reconstruction Begun at Savannah

The news which We publish from Sa-
vannah is more important and gratifying
than that of any battle which has been
fought since the war began. If truly re-
ported, and if followed up according to
promise, it heralds the very last stage of
the war, when war visibly fades into
peace. The major and many influential
citizens of Savannah have held Il public
meeting, in which they resolved not only
to cheerfully acquiesce in the United States
government of the city, but to submit
themselves permanently to the constitution
and laws Of the Union, leaving all specific
questions that may need further settlement,
to the disposal of congress and the courts
They claim that they do not submit as a
conquered community to its conquerers.
but simply as citizens of the United States
as though they had been debarred hitherto
from their just position by irresistible
military control. This strikes the true
keynote of reconstruction for all the peo-
pile of the south, as distinguished from the
deliberate traitors who originated and have
sustained the armed rebellion. What a
glorious position is this to be taken by
the fourth great city of the rebellious
states
The same meeting also calls upon the
governor of Georgia to make provision for
deciding whether the war shall longer
continue in that state. The significance
of this appeal is confirmed by many cir
cumstances. The evident want of favor
for Alexander H. Stephens which has for
a long time been shown in Richmond, and
the more open quarrel between Gov.
Brown and jeff. Davis, are signs of con-
siderable disatfecti"n in Georgia. The
singular apathy of the people, also, in moi
responding to the appeals Of Beauregard.
Gen. Cobb, Senator Hill and others to
unite by obstructlng in every means the
march of Sherman, is an indication to the
same effect of still stronger import
These and other circumstances would
seem to imply that this resolution of the
Savannah meeting was Understandings
designed to extend the reconstruction
movement from the city to the whole
state.
OF the vast, the decisive importance %
such movement in a state which is tn,
very keystone of the southern contcderacy
We need not speak at the present time
We prefer to wait for confirmation anu
fuller development of this news, to Sc,
how many citizens have joined in the re-
ported meeting, and whether its results
are generally acquiesced in.-Boston Jour

Ee0ce Movements.

Mr. Horace Greeley has been at Wash
mgton urging upon members OF congress
to make some movement looking toward
peace. The Opposition members endorse
his action. but the Republicans are shy OF
him. Last week Frank Blair and his son
Montgomery went down to the front cx-
pccing to get passes to Richmond \
dispatch to the Tribune thus explains the
GRAND:
Mr.. Blair, believing he might by Wis
ting Richmond pave Il way for peace, pro-
posed to 90 there, and the President, while
he declined to give the visit an official
character, saw no reason for preventing
it,"
For some reason passes were not grant
ed these men, and they returned TO Wash
ington. But late news reports Mr.. Blair
senior as returning to the front the pres
ent week with assurance that he will be
passed through the lines One account
says he would have been passed before il
he had waited little and another that
he returned to Washington to confer with
Mr. Greeley. The press generally doe:
not reckon on any good or harm arriving
out Of this new mission. The rebels have
a standing OTTER of peace from our Presi
dent. When they see fit to accept the
terms then there will be peace.
There has been rrlmor that the Geor
gia authorities have indicated a wish t
return to the oId Union, and that it wa,
on account of this that Secretary Stanton
visited Savannah last week; but we d,
not learn as there Is any truth in the ru
NOR.
The Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1837-1867, 1865-01-13
THE VAR NEWS.

The war news of the week is not of
special Importance. There is very little
OF it from any quarter. The principal
item is the return of the great Whining
ton expedition. The troops under Butler
have gone back to their old places in the
army of the James, and the commanders
of the expedition are throwing the blame
of the failure on each other. . From 9TH
er quarters there is nothing to communi-
cate. Gen. Hood seems to have escaped,
and Gen. Thomas has ceased following
him. Hoods army has been growing
more and more demoralized and has been
losing men and guns daily, but he may
now be considered safe, as he has got so
far ahead of Thomas as to be entirely out
of his reach. 1t is surmised that the
splendid army Of Gen. Thomas, compos-
ed of about $4,000 men, will not be al
lowed to remain in quietude, but soon
start off ON another movement of impor-
lance. From Gen. Sherman there has
been very little news, because there has
been very little to tell He has sent out
his cavalry in different directions. Gen.
Hardee was at Charleston, and it is ap-
parent that the rebels are anticipating
that the next movement will be against
that city. The citizens of Savannah take
the federal rule quite kindly, and a meet
ing has been held, at which resolutions
were adopted recommending Gov. Brown
to call a state convention to see if the peo-
pie want the war continued The inhab-
itants are in very destitute circumstances,
and an agent has been sent north to solicit
contributions. Gen. Foster still holds
the railroad between Savannah and
Charleston, and Gen. Fitzpatrick with his
cavalry is watching Hardee. -. There is
absolutely nothing from Richmond. Gen.
Grant has made no movement, and the
rebels are satisfied to remain quiet There
have been SIGNS of great activity among
them, which either portends a movement
on their part or was made to cover up the
removal of troops to other points.

Gen. Butler Reliered.

The country generally will feel relieved
on learning that Gen. 3. +. Butler has
been relieved of the command of the de-
plrimtnt Of Virginia. and North Carolina.
Gen Butler has been losing the confidence
Of the people. as military man, for a
long time: and the wonder has been that
the President has chung to him 50 long
His diSmission at this time indicates where
the blame Of the Wilmington failure i.
placed by those in authority. Gen. Grant
has appointed Major Gen. Ord to tn,
command of Gen Buffers department
and army. and he is already in charge

Examination Of the Raiders.

The court AT Montreal. before which
the rearrested St. Adams raiders were tn
ken for examination, has been considering
for several days whether or not ii had full
jurisdiction, in the case. On Satur-
day the court decided that it had jul
risdiction and the examination will be
proceeded with. A very strong effort will
be made to secure their release. but the ex-
animation will at all events be more thor
ough and impartial than the one in which
Coursol diSgraced himself and violated

deserts, and that will be nothing less than

The PeriIs of RailrOading.
The oft recurring accidents upon {

The oft recurring accidents upon our
railroads of late are very noticeable
We have seen it stated that more people
were killed by such accidents in 1864 than
in any wear since '5S. The alarming fire.
quency of these calamities should awaken
the public mind in such a degree as to put
a stop to at least one-half Of them, those
which are the result Of sheer carelessness.
A few years ago there was dreadful
accident at Norwalk, Ct. when a loaded
train ran at full speed into an open draw
in the bridge. If we recollect rightly
some fifty men were killed; many of them
the first medical and scientific men of our
country, who were returning from a gen
eral convention at New York city. The
shock that this calamity gave the country
was of value. The most stringent regu-
lations were enacted by the railroads OF
New England, and especially by those in
Connecticut and to this day every train
over the New York and New Haven road
is brought to a dead stop before going on
to one of their numerous draw-bridges on
that road. As a result of this and SINH
lar precautions, Gov. Buckingham re-
ported two years ago that OF the vast
number of persons carried over the rail,
roads in Connecticut that year, (betweel
one and two millions, we believe,) but one
person rus Azled
1t is evident, however, that the manag-
crs of railroads are getting lax again.
The accidents during the last months o.
GA were of alarming frequency and fatal
itv: and Connecticut has had her full
share again Our attention has been call
ed to this subject from reading of an ac-
cident which occurred in Bergen tunnel
a few days since. Burger tunnel i:
through Bergen hill. about two miles from
Jersey City, N. J. 1t is cut through sol
id rock, and is almost one mile in length
1t was made by the Erie railroad compa
ny few years since in order to shorter
their route, and is now used by both the
Erie and the Essex and Morris companies
About one hundred trains pass through
the tunnel every twenty-four hours For
merry the engineers of the two road:
raced :" to see which should Get to thu
entrance of the tunnel first. and have pre-
cedence: but this was stopped after on,
or two narrow escapes from dreadful dis
aSter. And now one train following an.
other is required to give five minutes tC
the forward train. \ few days ago the
two rear cars OF a tram III passing through
became disconnected. and before the prop

The Trouble with Davis.

NEW YORK, Jan. :. Late rebel news
papers show that the fight between the
jeff Davis and anti-,Jeff Davis factions is
constantly growing more sanguinary. The
lines between them are strictly drawn.
those opposed to Davis accuse him in the
most open and vehement manner of being
the cause of all their recent disasters. and
they in turn are charged by Jetf's organs
with destroying confidence in the ability
of the Confederacy to achieve indepcn-
dence, preventing the full enforcement of
the CONSUMPTION, and encouraging deser-
tons.
