Tliis movement was suc cessful Johnson finding his retreat likely to be cut off fell back to his fortifications at Uesaeca, where he was attacked on the after noon ol' May 15th, A heavy battle ensued. During the night the enemy retreated south. Irate on the l fth his rear guard was overtaken near Adairsville, and heavy skirmishing fol lowed. Next morning, however, he had. again disappeared.

On the morning of the 23th, tlia advanco under Gen. Hooker, had a severe battle witli the enemy, driving him back to New Hope Church, near Dallas. Several sharp encounters occurred at this point. The most important was on the 28th, when tlie enemy assaulted General Mc Pherson at Dallas, but received a tcrribloand biopsy repulse.. ' V ■ V T" KKNNKSAW. On tlie 4th of .Tune, Johnston abandoned his entrenched position at New Hope Church, and retreated to the position of Kcnncsaw, Pine and Lost Mountains. He was forced to yield the two last, named places aud concen trate his forces on Kcnncsaw. where, on the !9tli, Gens. Thomas mid McPherson made a determined but unsuccessful essault. On the night of the 2d of July, Sherman commenced moving his army by the right flank, and on the morning of the 3d found that the enemy, in consequence of this move ment, had abandoned Kejmcsaw, and retired across tlie CUattahoochie. ■ General Sherman remained on the Chattahoocliic, to give his men rest and get up stores, until the 17th of July, when he resumed his operations, cross ed tlie Clmttahoochie, destroyed a large por tion of the railroad leading to Augufta, and drove the enemy back to Atlanta, 22d op jclt. At this place General Hood succeeded Gcueral Johnston in command of the Confed erate army, and assumed the oflensive-defen- sive policy, made several severe attacks upon Sherman in the vicinity of Atlanta, the most desperate mid determined of which was on the 22d of July. About t P. M. of tliis day the brave, accomplished and noble-hearted McPherson was killed—General Logan suc ceeding him in command of the army of Tennessee, through tliis desperate battle, and until lie was superceded' by Major General Howard, on tlie 2Gth, with the same success and ability that bad characterized him in command of n corps or division. In all these attacks the enemy was repulsed with great ss. CAPTUBE OP ATLANTA. Finding it impossible to entirely invest the place, Gen. Sherman, after securing his line of communication across the Chattahoochee, moved his main-force round by the enemy’s left flank, upon the Montgomery and M.-ieon roads, to draw the enemy front his fortifica tions. Ill this he was successful, and, after defeating tlie enemy near Rough mid Heady, Jonesboro and Lovejov’s, forcing "him to .re treat to the south, on tile 2d of September occupied Atlanta, the objective point of his campaign. Gen. Sherman’s movement from Chatta nooga to Atlanta was prompt and brillant. Tlie history of lii.< flank movement's and battles during that memorable campaign will ever bc’read with an interest unsurpassed by anything in history. He was dependent for the supply of his armies upon u rough track of railroad from Nashville to the point where he was operating. This passed the entire distance through a hostile country, and every foot of it had to Unprotected by troops. * * * *.' * * * SHERMAN’S MARCH TO SAVANNAH. General Sherman,. immediately after the foil of Atlanta, put his army in camp, in nnd about tlie place and made all preparations for refitting and supplying them for future service. The great length of the road from Atlanta to Cumberland river, however, which had to be guarded, allowed the troops but little rest. During tliis time Jeff. Davismade a speech in Macon, Georgia, ^which was repor ted in the papers of the 4th, and soon be came known to the whole country disclosing the plan of the enemy, and thus enabling General Sherman to fully meet them. He ex plained the weakness of supposing that an army that had been boaten and decimated in a vain attempt at the defensive, could suc cessfully undertake the offensive against an army that had so often defeated it. In tlie execution of this plan, Hood with his army, was soon reported at the South, west of Atlanta, moving forward to Sherman's right. He succeeded in reaching the railroad about Big Shanty, and moved north on iL General Sherman, leaving u force to hold Atlanta, with tlie remainder of his army fell upon him, and drove him to Gadsden, Ala bama. ajtr ’ I- -I,; ■ i -.; *•*-.« *.* * • * * IT WAS THE ORIGINAL DESIGN To hold Atlanta, and by getting through to the coast, with a garrison left on the Southern railroads leading east and west through Geor gia, to effectually sever the East from the West. In othcr.’words, a cut would be made, severing the Confederacy in two again, as it bad been cut once by our gaining possession of the Mississippi river. General Sherman’s plan virtually effected this object. General Sherman commenced nt once his PREPARATIONS For liia proposed movement, keeping his ar my in a position, in the meantime, to match Hood. Becoming satisfied tiiat Hood had moved westward from Gadsden, across Sand Mountain, Gen. Sherman sent tlie 4th corps. Major Gen. Schofield commanding, back to Chattanooga, to report to Mnj. Gen. Tliomas, at Nashville, whom he had placed in com mand of all the troops of his military divis ion, save four army corps and a cavalry divis ion, he designed to move with through Geor gia. With the troops thus left at his disposal, there was little doubt but that Gen. Thomas could hold the line of the Tennessee, or in the event that Hood should force it, would Ire able to concentrate and beat him in battle. I therefore, readily consented that Gen. Sher man should start for the sea-coast.

Sherman, dated the lClli of December, acknowledging the receipt of my order of the Cth, arid informing me of his proposition to carry it into effect as soon a< he could get transportation. Also, that he had expected, upon reducing Savannah, in stantly to march to Columbia, South Caroli na, thence to Raleigh, and thenra to report to me. But this would consume nbriut six' months’time after the fall ef Savannah, wlicrs- as, by sea, he could probably reach me by the middle of January. The confidence lie man ifested in this letter of being able to march up and join me, pleased me, and instead of wait ing for a reply to my letter of the 18th, I di rected him on tlie 28t!i of December to make preparations to start as be proposed, without delay, to break up the railroads in North and South Carolina, and join the armies ojierating against Richmond as soon as he could. On the 21st of January I informed General Sher man that I had ordered the 23d corps, Major General Schofield commanding, east; that it numbered about 21,000 men; that wc had at Fort Fisher about 8,000. men; at Ncwbcm about 4,000; that if Wilmington was captur ed, Gen.
