CHAPTER XVII.
Johnston Removed.

While the army was making this
grand right wheel, with the Army of
the Tennessee far to the left tearing up
the railroad near Decatur, news came
which Sherman and his officers well
coined as equivalent to a victory. This
news reached Sherman by man who
appeared to be citizen, but who was
really one of our spies in Atlanta. He
arrived at Gen. Sherman's headquarters
with a newspaper containing Gen. Joe
Johnsten's order relinquishing the COM
mand of the Confederate forces in and
around Atlanta, and the order of Gen.
j. &. Hood assuming command in his
stead.
pected by any one. Johnston had been
put in command of Braggs badly de-
feated army much against the wishes
of Jefferson Davis and Braxton Bragg.
Davis hated Johnston with all his vim
dictiveness, which was notorious and
only assigned him to command because
the strongest pressure was put upon
him, and it was necessary to do some
thing to vindicate himself to the army
for his persistence in keeping Gen
Bragg in command after his repeated
failures.
Bragg was as vindictive as Davis,
hated Johnston for his intellectual and
professional superiority, and was only
too willing that Johnston should fail
where he himself had not succeeded.

back with the Confederate troops into

approached, march out with the three

1t was now known that this was likely
to come, not only because Hoods char
acter as a soldier implied il, but be-
cause the reasons for the change were
known to be based upon a determina-
ton to pursue a more aggressive policy
IT was understood that hard blows were
to be received; but Sherman's whole
army was supremely confident in its
ability to take such prompt advantage
of natural and artificial means Of de-
fense as to punish aggression on the
part OF the enemy severely enough to
reduce his strength with great rapidity.
II is not oyerpraise of the National
army to say that its veterans were
panic-proof, and its well-tried courage
was so intelligent and quick-witted that
the smallest detachments could be re-
lied upon to dc wise and bold thing
in almost any juncture.
