Buller, the Beast, has proven a poor comforter,

A
Intiiiuo(lL Scheme of Operations Con
fessed.
A yankee Major, of seeming respectability and
considerable inteli.genee, revealed to a Confederate
Captain a must extended programme which- had been
chalked iul by Grant, but which, by tho vigilance
and enerpv of our officers and men, has been frus
trated. This officer slates that Wilson and Kautx
were tc. vifect a iim.'t thorough destruction of the
South-ide s.nd Danvillo Knilroads, but were to

in come cown through the rich counties of Char-
It. tie, Lunetiourg. Urunswiek, Mecklenburg, Grceus
villo and ."-'ussirx, stealing all tho horses und negroes
which could lie found in his way, ind again enter
Grant's line s by way of Stony Creek, and if this
j oint pp. fed impracticable, to come out w hero bo
entered nt Ilcams' Station.
Kant, was to proeeeil to Danville, from thence to
Green d..iro. then on to Uuleigb, ami thence along
the Kaleiil nud Gaston railroad t Woldon, At
tho latter plnco the bridge was to bo burned, and
Kautx wj.s th n tu make for the lilackwater, aud
come around through Southampton, Surry, Sussex
ninl Pi ince George, to Grant's headquarters. This
eflieer states Ihat the combined forces numbered all
c.f eight thousand; well mounted: bad picked men;
unJ. that, iu all respects, it was intended to have
l.eeu the grainiest raid of tho war, far eclipsing all
similar e.v petitions vat or west, not excepting
(iriersou's gifiit tramp through Mississippi, and
Sheridan's routemplatcd march to Uordunsvillc,
Chancclb rsville, Lynchburg, etc. Our readers call

The Mews,
We have ha. I a conversation with a gentleman
who Kft Richmond on Tuesday last, who status
tliat the feeling in that city, both among the offi
cials nud eitiicns, is ipiiet buoyant. Ilo reports
evcrjioioir ptrlwctly sntlsfacKiry. There Is no
doubt that a portion of Grant's forces liavo crossed
t . tlio ..rth sids of the Appomattox. The state
ment that Graut has hern reinforced lo the extent
of ::ii.nul is n.it Kcncrully credited, although it is
known th it he has received sotno reinforcements.

A !isconl:tiit Note.
Oar sage cotempornry of the Atiaut i I i.leli;;-en
ccr has some bow or other lost his balance. At
least it seems so lo us at this di.-laii. c IV..i.i the
field of active operations for the reduciii.n ..f Atl.uir

res nihility for tho loss of Atlanta uni t ' fall up.
on-the shoulders of the President tha; the Presi
dent, in not ordering reinforcements sent to .)..!m-
ston, and causing Sherman's long line of, iniiini-
eation to tie cut tiff with eavalrv. is i uli.al.l.- i..r
j the peril ofA'uf"-1 -'q1 '' ' -
. What! is Atlanta going to fall Th's is re.illv
the first indication of its do. in we have yet .-n:
and, upon the whole, the article has a very ui in-
fortable tone about it. It is caleulnted t depress
our own people and encourage l:ie 1 a:ike.-.-.
It was intimated, liovvever. some .lavs ago that i
Gen. Johnston did not want Sherman to r.-lr.-ai.- - 1
He wanted him to pursue still farther. mi.I i!iis el- j
fort of the Intelligencer m show the w.'aiinc.' s of!
our force and its nervousness f..r the sal'- tv the 1
gate city "the heart of the Confederacy." an. I
4the backbone of the rebellion," may 1-c a rice
piece of strategy to toll the Yankee ..n. V' don't
think, however, Ihat the Intelligencer is much ad
dicted to cxcrimcnts of this character, and we are
rather forced to tho conclusion that the article fix
ing tho lesponsibilify for Iho loss of Atlanta np..n
the President was dictated rather by the heart taau
the head.
Surely our dignified cotompnrary doe- not rciily
think that Gen. Johnston is going t.i give up Atlan
ta, lie only J'fnm he will he compelled ;.. do ii be
cause the President has culpably refuse. 1 t send j
reinforcements, or to expose every otlii .- avenue ;.. i
invasion and fl.ink moveuiciils by orderi-ig all tho
cavalry to Sherman's rear.
We don't pretend to know what, the Pr -ident has
done in the matter, hut, admitting f.r the sa'.e ..f
tho argument that he is responsible f-.r the failure
to send a sufficient cavalry fi.jce to Sherman's rear.
Suppose he had sent Forrest there, what would have
been tho fato of Mississippi, Alabama and John,
ston's line of supply ? What would ha.e been the
movements of tho column under Smith ami Giier
son, if Forrest had not met and destroyed them iu
North Mississippi? What would have impeded
their march on Selma. and prevented ihe fill ..f
this place iud Montgomery and Mobile, and all the
vnst Governmunt workshops and stor -s clh cted at
thm, mid the interruption of Johnston'; supplies
There is no estimating the ii.l vaiilair. to .l.diu
ston's army of Forrest's glorious victor,- in North
Mississippi. At no oinl could ho ha v.- struck a
more damaging blow to Sherman, or out of great.-r
advantage to lien. Johnston. put. l-aving !.
