The Progress, speaking Of Sherman, says
zone Of our State papers argues that Sher-
mars march through Georgia has accom-
pl;sed nothing for the cause but sa n
people along the line of march having become
exasperated to renewed resistance, &c. In the
matter Of resistance we suppose more especial
reference is had to the Mayor and Aldermen
Of Savannah, and others that figured with
them in q recent meeting. 1t Is about time
that this work Of deception should cease.
Sherman could retrace his steps and march
back TO Chattanooga, and find but little oppo.

think it doubtful. If South and North Caro-

will have everything his own way; his army
will reach Richmond, that city will fall; the
war will end, and we shall be compelled to

to give u.s. Virginia and the two Carolinas are

The Richmond Enquirer says that "General

The Enquirer is in a blue mood about Con.

The Raleigh IN. o. Progress is also "deeply,
