This.distinguished offie^r, who has been assign ed the President to the command of the armies under General Hood and Lieut. General Taylor, paid a visit tt. Governor Brown, iir this city, for consultation the past week. '1 lie General arriveu at the Executive Mansion by the Lain of 1 uesday night. In an hour after his arrival n large pro portion of the people of the city formed a torc.i light procession and mnehed to the Mansion and called for the General, lie appealed upon the front portico and was introduced by Governor Brown as the hero of the first battle of the T .\ ar and the hero who never lost a battle, T4ie Gen eral responded in a few appropriate remarks. He assured them that bo came to Georgia to bend every energy ot bis mind and oody tor her de fence. He was quite liopelu. of success in driv ing General Sherman from her territory. This could certainly be done within the next sixty days, if those absent from the army without leave would return immadiately, and all able to bear arms would hasten to the trout tor that length of time. Ilis remarks were well received and frequently applauded by his bearers. After the General concluded his remarks Governor Brown was called for and responded. • On Wednesday the General spent some time at the Executive office where niairj- of our citizens gathered around him to pay their lespec.ts. On leaving the Capitol the Cadets under Maj. Capers were drawn up to salute him, and the booming of cannon told the. surrounding country of the welcome with which he was received. At three o’clock, P. M , the Cade la, the City Battalion, the Cavalry, the Artillery and Infantry Companies, and a large concourse of citizens, formed in front of tho Executive Mansion to es cort the General to the train upon winch be was to leave for Macon. Upon the arrival of the pro. cession at tho train all who cotilJ get near Innr crowded around to shake his hand and to testify their high appreciation of his distinguished ability and their gratitude for his services. Hie train moved off’ amidst outbursts of applause and re peated huzzas for the distinguished visitor. The General lias the warmest affections and fullest confidence of our people. Their prayers are with him that he may be the instrument in tho hands cf Providence in driving tho vandal invader from oat* aoij. Governor Brown and General Wayne accom panied General Ucauregard to Macon, for a con sultation, we understand, with General Smith and General Cobb. Thi 1 Coarcrl, Tiie Concert at Newell's Hall, on Thursday evening last, under the direction of Mrs. Dr. Mitchell, and Mrs. Moffett, assisted by Mr. \V. 11. Barnes, Capt. T. D. Wright, the young ladies of the city, and sc viral gen tlemen who kiudlv volunteered for the occasion, was a decided tucce.su. An inclement evening did not pre vent the Hall from being well tilled with an nudieuee respectable in numbers and charm-ter. It is not our privilege to distinguish between the per formance, so far as to mention names among the young ladies; but we express our decided opinion that we have never seen them perform their parts with more credit to themselves than on the present occasion, mid we have heard them often under similar circumstances. The decoration of the stage is also due to their good taste, and was by no means ail unimportant- feature in the exercise^ The graceful management of Capt. Wright, and the good order with which the pieces were brought forward, did credit to this gentleman. His little daughters, aged respectively four and sc-venyears, were the “observed of all observers” They sang like bjrds, and looked like dowers, in innocence and beauty. Barnes, the incomparable, ubiquitous, whole-souled Barnes, was on hand ; spreading sunshine and smiles over the laces gt all, and tilling the house with raptu rous applause. Sir. Barnes lias contributed by his genius more to the charitable associations in our midst, during the War, than any man in Georgia. He moves about from place to place doing good, and making people happy. * To Mrs. Mitchell, who directed, and to Mrs. Moffett who presided at the piano, tin; thanks of the audience are, tendered for tho excellent arrangements which marked the proceeding -. When these ladies start to do anything they rarely, if ever, fail in their undertak ing,no matter how advers t tie circumstances surround ing them may be.

W« publish to-day an important letter from Vice President Stephens, in reply to several gen tlemen of Middle Georgia, who addressed him on the subject of peace. In our next we will pub. lish Senator H- V. Johnson’s letter to the same gentlemen, on the same subject. While these dis tinguished gentlemen are very anxious to see peace restored to our distracted land, and would do ail in their power to bring about a consummation so de voutly wished for by good men everywhere, they can suggest no plan in the present temper of the ruling power at the North, to bring it about. Ha d blows on the enemy will bring us petee. Noth- lag else will. For the Confedeiate Union. •I’eac*. JJuic it should l>c sought, and may he. obtained- Messrs. Editors : As a liamble citizen of Georgia, I propose through your paper, lo make a few, and as I believe, jffaeticable suggestionsi as to the best and most speedy nianuer of obtaining peace. In doing this, I claim to exercise only a right which belongs to every citizen nowever hum ble be may be—the right to express lus opinions iin all matters’of public interest. If any good shall come to the distressed people from’ these sa/- gestions, a consciousness of having contributed ever so little to its attainment, will bo to me am- p’e reward. My plan is this; As both the Congress of the Contederatii States and the General Assembly of Georgia will convene about the same time in next month, let the State Legislature ns soon as con vened, adopt a joint resolution recommending Con gress to pass an act at an early day of its session, authorizing and requesting each State in the Con- 1 federacy to appoint delegates to meet such other delegates as may be appointed by the States in the old Union, in a general convention or cor. ferencc.to be held at such place as may be agreed upon, to deliberate, cpnfer and reason together upon tho "subject of peace. In the mean time, let proper steps be taken to secure a .cessation of hostililies between the belligerents, to continue until the expiratiun of a reasonable period of time for tbs delegates from ell tho States to meet and deliberate. That the North would consent to bolding such a conference, and would agree upon au armistice for the purpose, there can be no doubt. The peo ple of the North as well as those of the South, have suffered sorely irom the war; both will suf fer more if it be continued, and both are alike anxious for its termination. Each State should seloct as delegates, her best and wisest men, solid men of the country, men of age and experience who are not likely to be blind ed or misled by passion, men who will deliberate, think and act with wisdom. Young men can make war, but it takes old men to make peace. The delegates should go from both sections to the conference, uutrammeled by instructions, lim itations or restrictions ; left entirely free to rea son together, and if possible, to agree upon some ulan for the restoration of peace winch would, in their judgment, be acceptable to the people of both sections. It might be provided that, in case the, convention or conterence cannot agree upon terms of settlement between the belligerents, ques tions upon which they cannot come to an agree ment, shall be left to the arbitrament of one or more of the wisest and best sovereigns of other nations. The action of the convention, after be ing ratified by the people of the respective States, should bg made final and binding upon both bellig erents, by formal treaties constitutionally made, or by other proper means. If such a conference once meet and an armis tice bo agreed upon for its deliberation, it is not probable that hostilities will ever be resumed. When nations, like individuals . one? quit fighting and begin, to reason with each other [about their differences, a solution of tiic questions in dispute is often peaceably found that continued hostilities never could discover. From the deliberations of such a convention, the people of both sections would have reason to hope that honorable and per manent peace, with all her attendant blessings, would soon come, and restore the whole land to quietness and plenty. The Christian takes a view other than a merely terrestial ohe, of this bloody struggle between North and South. He wisely recognizes the fing er of God in it, as of His permission, to chastise both peoples for their sins. While each combat ant intends the blows he inflicts upon the other for evil, God, who secs and permits, if not directs a. 1, designs these sore chastisements for good to both. Each fs an instrument in the hands of him who has said “vengeance is mine,” to chastise the other. That both peoples have suffered so much, and been chastised so *oi#iy, by God s com mand or permission, (for it conld not have been done otherwise,) is proof that all the wrong was not on one side, nor all the right on the other. WISDOM. COM MIN 1C AT El). For the Confederate Union. Messrs. Editors: The 'Educational interest is at all times a subject of vital importance and surely never more so than at the present. What is to become of the youth of our country, the little boys and girls growing up around us, the emblems of innocence and hope, is a question that should ab sorb the serious consideration, of every Christian and patriot. And with whom does this question excite more anxious solicitude, tfmn with our soldiers in the army. The reflection that their children are growing up in bondage to ignorance,to be the menials of society and offscouring of the world, is enough to depress their spirits, mid disarm their ambition. The lightest regard we can evince for these children, and the greatest blessing weeau bestow upon them, is to educate them. All other gifts are unstable and uncertain, education alone will be permanent and abiding. By doing this we will largely cancel a debt of gratitude, strengthen the arms, and inspire the heaits, and minds, of their fathers, with confidence and determination. Reasonable,and I might say praiseworthy provisions, are made in ttie way of food and clothing for iudigeut families of soldiers among us. I hear of no complaint from that quarter. Thanks to <i kind, and merciful, providence, for the abundant supply, that hangs in our fields and fills our stores. The great desideratum in meeting the wants of on? soldiers, of society, of government and all dear to an enlightened people, is to provide for the educational wants of these children. This can, and must be done. Legislative munificence is too heavily taxed, with other weighty and resjKuisihle claims, to give proper attention to this matter. I apprehend that the only sure, nud successful, plan for accomp fishing lunch in this noble work, is by-the voluntary action of the people. Let us organise an educational association in Mill edgeville ; appeal to the patriotism,and liberality of our people, in behalf of this class of children among us and I am sure of success. F. L.

As stated in Stanton’s official gazette above, communication With Sheridan was cut off, and heucu lio late advices had been received of him.— The Baltimore* American sums up the news irom the Valley as follows : On' tiuiiday, Sheridan ami Torbert joined their forces near New Market, and started after ti e en emy in the direction of Staunton, reaching Har risotiburg about twenty-five miles from Staunton, on Mouday. Our cavalry advanced beyond Har risonburg, continuing the pursuit, and consider ably annoying the enemy. Whether he will pro ceed now on to Staunton, or await supplies, is not known. It will be remembered that after the de feat of Early near Winchester, lie sent his Gains to Harper’s Ferry, where they arrived in saJc-ty. and lie must consequently have since been sub sisting mainly upon the country through which be has been operating. In the absence, however, of official information from Secretary Stanton or General .‘Sheridan, all conclusions as to future movements are mere speculations. Tho object of General Sheridan’s movements may have now been accomplished to the satisfaction of Jfieut General Grant, and probably after fortifying the principal gaps of the mountains he will rest upon his laurels for a time.

Whitaker, Commissary General : COLONEL: Information reaches uih from va rious parts of the State, that the families of our gallant soldiers are again in great need ot salt, and sum^of them must soon suffer if their-neces sities are not relieved. While those who are their natural protectors are required to leave them aud confront the enemy on the battlefield, those who remain at home, and’especially those in authori ty, must do all in their power to relieve their wants, and prevent distress for the necessaries ol life. Considering the State as the natural guar dian of the helpless families of absent soldiers, I have as its Executive, done all in my power to contribute to their comfort Notwithstanding the means of bringing salt from the works in Virgin ia into the State, have been greatly curtail d du ring the present rear, i have neveriheless suc ceeded in bringing in from there and in procuring from other sources, since the last distribution to soldiers’families was made through you, about thirty thousand bushels, as appears from your re ports made to me; and which quantity is now in store ready for distribution.

My intention is. so soon as it can be had, to make a distribution of one half lushed of twenty- five pounds, to the family of each officer and sol dier in State or Confederate service, from Georgia.
