SUNDAY MORNING. JULY 24.1 1864;
raorirTiija- siDzno.tir.
The heavy eloads r4iMwr i(ll(h kt t
few hours tgo wcra so seriously ihretenlug, were
dissipated by the glorious . mwi from" At Until con
tained lu wit pope of yesterday morning. These
dispatches Informed u that He mercenaries of tbe
Lincoln Government, before ebom onr army bad
been steadily retreating from I'altou to (be Chatta
hoochee, end fro-n the Chattahoochee to Allauta,
- hadrbeen tnccesafully met and, had failed to wain-
. Uia their position against tbt impetuous unset of
or gallant soldiery ; that they were driven fro n
line afjer line or their entrenchment, with a terriCa
lees in killed mad wounded, i.bout four tUousaal
prisoners and twenty-two pieoM of artillery.
Ths rebound of the publ wind from the depres
sion of tbe previous dsr. eansed by the unfavorable
reports brought from Atlanta, by every traia, waa
very great. The word of eoc:gratul'tioi was on
every lip and tbe sparkle of j7 in ,Tfry yc. Our
daags-r at Atlanta had secminjtly been much exag
gerated by tbe multitude ot alarmed an 1 pant;
stricken fugitives who bad io Tee ted tbe country
through wbteh they fled with Heir own doub( or
tbe ability of our army to beat back, the vandal
horde who bad poured down from the North to
beset and despoil ae. ' ' ' '
Oor army bad fcl'en Sack from Cbieamauga to
Atlanta, step by step, until it did seen to some,
that felling back was tbe on grand condition of

' strong position after another it would not panne to
defend one without any natural advantage f.r
defease, but would still pax; -B. ,
But those who thus reasoned, bad mistaken the
polley of our commander and tbe beroie spirit of
his men. Tbe point had been rescued when tabl
ing was te be done : "When -Mir insolent foes were
to be taught that the spirit of our troop, which
biased so brightly at Chickamauga was not yet
extinct, and that the posiyaiiion of A'.lanto cunld
only be obtained at the prion of Mood. The gal
lantry with which our arm chr;M into and

Of course we cannot con.-cture what tn-iy yet j
transp re. The policy of Uen. II nod is .unp.cd to
be a determined resistance to the further progress
of tbe invader. Cut whatever his p diey.'tlie army
bas shewn that iu spirit is yt onlintken, anl (hit!
it can and will fibt as well under Its new com
mander as it did und-r its old. The fears that the
- cbscge of leaders would dispirit and discourage
thetn is dispelled and the country brvatl.es freer
o!der than it did before this ilait glorious fight.
C3u. W. B. T. Walker.
The fall of this gallant soldier will elicit mauly
sympathy from orery brart. lie was one m" the
Confederacy's brightest jewels andjbrare.t knights.
He bore a stainless eseutcbean.- In tht Mexican
war ho won high position as a braro and cbivslrons
soldier, which be raised to tbt highest standar.1 by
bis beroie deeds upon th4alltc-fl.'fld of this war.
He was a eiti'xen of Georgia. Oar want f famil
iarity with-tbe details of hia interesting history
will not permit that we alt-unfit a sketch of bin
career as a soldier, and we lve the grateful tnfc
to mora competent hands. Bnt thi we know that
a more knightly heart wns never stilled by tho mis
siles of a ruthless foe.
