SHERMAN To HALLECK

SHERMAN To HALLEcK.
HEA DQUARTERs MILITARY DIVISION Of
TIE MISSISSIPPI, ATLANTA, GA, Sept. 90 :
1864.
Ma.-Gen. HALLEcK, Chef.of. staff. Washing
ton, d. c.
GENERAL: have the honor herewith to sub
NIT copies of correspondence between Gen.
Hood, of the Confederate army. the Mayor of
Atlanta, and myself. touching the removal of
the inhabitants of Atlanta.
In explanation of the tone which marks some
of these letters. ! will call your attention to
the fact that. after l had announced my deter
mination, Gen. Hood took upon himself to
question my motives. could not tanely SUBJ
NIT to such impertinence; and have also seen
that. in violation of all official usage, he has
published in the Macon newspapers such parts
of the correspondence as suited his purpose.
This could have had no other object than to
create feeling on the part of the people; but
il he expects to resort to such articles, think
can meet him there too
1t is sufficient for my Government to know
that the removal OF the inhabitants has been
made with liberality and fairness, that it has
been attended with no force, and that no
women or children have suffered. unless for
want of provisions by their natural protectors
and friends.
My real reasons for this step were:
We want all the houses of Atlanta for mill
tary storage and occupation.
We want to contract the lines of defense, 80
as to diminish the garrison to the limit neces-
sary to defend its narrow and vital parts. in
stead of embracing, as the lines now do. the
vast suburbs. This contraction of the lines.
with the necessary citadels and redoubts, will
make il necessary to destroy tho very houses
used by families residences.
Atlanta is q fortified town, was stnbbornly
defended and fairly captured. As captors, we
have a right to il.
The residence here of poor population
would compel US, sooner or later, to feed them
or to see them starve under our eyes,
The residence here of the families of our
enemies would be temptation and means to
keep up correspondence dangerous aud hurt
full to our cause; a civil population calls for
provost-guards, and absorbs the attention of
officers in listening to everlasting com plants
aud special grievances that are not military.
These are my reasons; and. il satisfactory to
the Government of the United States it makes
no difference whether it pleases Gen. Hood and
has people or not.
| am. with respect, your obedient servant,
W. +. SHERMAN, Major-General commanding.

HERND0N NOTES.
A Fine Old Mansion Saved From the
Flames.

Flames.
Herndon, Ga, Oct 1.-THE old ante-bel-
lum mansion of the late Judge J. z.
Jones was very nearly destroyed by fire
Tuesday morning. The kitchen was the
seat of the trouble. The cook discovered
sparks falling from the roof and at once
gave the alarm. The cook room was an
immense old slavery time affair. with the
huge chimney and pot hooks. 1t was To-
Gated about thirty or forty feet from the
dwelling. 1t was destroyed, but the man.
sion was saved.
The Savannah friends of Mrs. Amanda
Falligant will feel pleased to know that it
was under her self-possessed directions
that the fire was controlled.
