foggy and the feet was hardly visible
The tall, tapering masts of the frigates
could be discerned in the fog looming up
like phantom ships. The booming OF
cannon could be heard in the distance up
the beach, and it was supposed that the
enemy were landing their forces, which
turned out to be true. About 10 o'clock,
by looking through glass, could be seen
column of the enemy stretched out
across the land front near Anderson.
The long roll was beat and the men lined
the palisades and manned the guns
From some cause, however, the enemy
made no advance, and nothing happened
about the fort during the day. The men
were all in fine spirits and Colonel TAFT,
with his fine battalion, had arrived to
take part i'll the fray. The firing up the
beach continued all day, and also during
the night. The men we're hard at work
to-day ii, repairing the damages to the

All nature seemed lovely. And 10! there

shee. The feet see her, and two of them
start after her, but she is too quick, and
proudly she comes in the inlet, while the
men crowd the curtains, and cheer after
cheer greets her, which are answered with
vim by her crew. During the night
another had come in, whose namc have
not learned. wonder how Mr.. Admiral
Porter felt at that time, with a feet of
upwards Of sixty vessels, not able to ct:
.Jectu0Jly blockade New inlet.
About IL o'clock the fleet stood out :;
the ;ronsides, which had been lying nearer
the fort, got up steam and started out,
and soon the whole fleet were out some
distance, where they anchored. "A bright
lookout was kept up at night, but no
thing of Importance occurred.
WEDNESDAY,, December 29.-Anothcr
beautiful morning. Half of the fleet
has disappeared; the rest are going off.
5 90 O'clock p M.-The rest have dis
appeared; nothing but the usual blockade
squadron are now visible.

GENERAL LEE.

Thore is to-day among tho loyal
people Of tho North great deal Of
romantic and sickly feeling in favor Of
Gen. Robert Z. Leo, Ho must still be
called the Virginia Geptlcman, the
Christian Soldier, and the hero who did
not wan. to rcbcl. We have not n
particle Of sympathy with this scnti-
mentality, nor a drop Of patience
with those who indulge it. Gen. Lee
was an educated army officer, in the
service Of tho United States, at the
time of the outbreak of the rebellion.
He saw no good and sufficient reason
for the rebellion, and against his bet
ter judgment, deserted the army and
the country and Joined the enemy be,
cause tho State from which he hailed
had rebcllod. If the private soldier
who deserts tho ranks deserves TO be
shot, Con. Leo deserves to hang higher
than Haman. II jeff Davis deserves
TO DO hung for rebellion whom he
thought thcrc was good reason for it
why should not Leo be hung for re-
bellion, when he acknowledged there
was no good reason for it? In oul
opinion, jeff DAVIS is moro to bo OK.
cuscd than Loo,
Besides, tho Christian qualities
which have been attributed to Gen
Lee, do not exist. In his communica
ton with Grantin reference to tho sur
rcnter of tho rebel army, he tried a
trick OF words which any where else
would be called lying. Ilo was severe
and almost heartlcss in tho treatment
OF his own soldiers, at one time throw.
ing three hundred veterans into Cas-.
tic Thunder in irons because they ask.
cd second timc for twenty days fur.
Tough. He knew that our prison ers
in his hands were rottingan starving
ut Belle Isle, Andersonvillo, Salisbury
and elsewhere, and it was in his power
to relieve them, yet he allowed this tc
go on increasing to the end, and never
uttered word against its inhumanity
and infamy.
John Minor Bolts saw no reason
for the rebellion, and yet did not wisl
to take part against his native State
Did he therefore take part against bis
country? No. lie withdrew entirely
and remained, II not actively yet pas
sively, loyal. Gen. Leo also saw nc
reason for rebellion and yet did no
wish to take part against his nativ,
State. lIc therefore became descr
ter and q traitor, and led hundred
thousand men against the lite of tn,
nation.

sn ERMAv 4 JOHNSTON.

Elsewhere we publish tho Washing
ton dispatch giving tho torms of peace
agreed upon between Sherman and
Johnston. They have astounded the
country, and set the friends of General
Sherman 10 asking all manner of
questions. Tho gist OF the agreement
is that tho rebels shall return to their
homes, cease their war upon the Gov
crnnient, remain unmolested by tho
EGscsiSUe, and abide tho determina-
ton Of tho Congress and tho Courts of
the United States. Sherman does not
assume authority to grant such terms,
but plcdgcs his cfTorts to procure them
from his government. The Govern
,nent has promptly disapprovcd Of tho
terms, and ordered an immediate re-.
sumption Of hoStilities.
Gen Sherman is soldier TO be hon.
orcd forever, but he has mado a polit.
ital mistake. That is tho most which
can be said Of his action Ha is will.
ling to make peace upon the terms
stated, but the loyal people are Of a
different temper. and demand harsher
terms than Grant gave to Leo. We
think tho time pnst for Offering any
terms cave unconditional surrender. -
As To this action destroying the splcn
did reputation Of Gen. Sherman, III,
one who knows the good sense Of the
American will bslievc il. His reputa.
ton as a soldier is established in Eu.
ropo as well as America. and therc il
but ono way in which he can lose hit
popularity, yiz. by allowing tho Cop,
perheads TO make leader of him.
They orc Just now in want of a hero tc
pin thcir ruined party to, and they
will throw up their hats for Sherman
lie is n man of better sense and inii
nitely more patriotism and.l polit.
lea ambition than Mcclellan, and will
not allow himself to DO used by the
rsn who have boon the enemies Of his
Government.
General sherman said soon a ter Tho
capture of Savannah, that he know the
stuff ofwhich his reputation was made
and that if ho committed the least mis-
take thepcoplc would turn against him
There is something in this, and wc re-
grct exceedingly that ho should have
done anything SO ont ol harmony will
The temper of tho people. We have O
local as vol as national pride in the
genius and renown of Sherman.
Notwithstanding this political mis-
take, we believe Shermana reputation
TO bn safe and immortal. Nothing cur
take from him the gratitude Of Crea
people for such eminent service, anc
nothing can ruin his future save polit
ical connection with copperhoads anc
rebo!s.
