lore tbe campaign is eudei
I am estopped from telling you what is past, but
I can give you my speculations about, the future
I do not know what our Generals w ill do, or at
tempt to do, but 1 know very well what they can.
and what they cannot do. I therefore give you
mv views of the future operations in this qunr-
ter.
Our people are a weak and foolish people. They
are too easily and too excessively depressed, or ex
alted in spirits. A disaster drives them to despair
and a little su'-cess exalts them into ecstasies and
the most extravagant expectations. When Atlan
ta was lost, they were depiessed as if the blow
was irreparable, and mow that our army has taken
the aggressive and regained lost territory, they are
so dearly won and which lie prizes so highly We
put him on the defensive, tbe weakest of all poli
cies, and keep him so. He has come for conquest,
and must move forward and aggress. When he
is driven to the defensive be is beaten. Our lines
is perpendicular to his, and opposite to the centre
of his line from Bridgeport to Atlanta. We can
strike any part of his line for 17!) miles.
There is but a small difference in the distaueo
hour.
| To those soldiers of the army, who ate cbset.t from
their commands without leave', I appeal in the name of
j their brave comrades, with whom they have in tin-
[ past, so Often sue red the privations of the camp and
I the dangers ofthe battlefield, to return at once to their
duty. To all such ns shall repoil to their respective
commands in response to this appeal, w ithiu the next

liad been sent to R* me.
Shearman’s teams were poor and weak, and un
fit for traveling. And we must have bad the start
of him. by two or three days. This railroad would
have given him some advantage, but we were on
it, and commanded it. WJiai to do with Atlanta
was an embarrassing question. He had either to
abandon it altogether, and lose hi» sick and wound
ed, and his accumulated stores there, or to leave
a garrison. To leave a garrison there, was to di
minish his army in the field, and perhaps, finally
to sacrifice the garrison. But political eontilera-
lions, controlled military policy, and he left a gar
iTkon of about T.ffffff men in Atlants, Having
sacrificed so much to gain Atlanta, its political
value to Lincoln in the pending .election, and in
deed, Sliei man’s own vanity, induced, him to-take
great hazards, and make Treat sacrifices to hold it,
even for a few weeks With the remainder of tus
arms lie returned, ns readily as he could, towards
Kingston and Rome. On the 12th inst., alter
leaving our at my, I passed in ten miles of Ronie
My opinion is, that, on that day, Sherman’s army
was at Rome. It was impossible for him to have
been further North tit that time. % -
The theatre of war in this department is lience-
forihTo be on new lines. Onr move already made,
transfers it trom Atlanta to the country between
Blue Mountain and the Atlanta and Chattanooga
railroad. Atlanta will never again be the scetie of
cot flict. Here, over this mountanous country, or
upon another line farther west, the war for the pos
session of Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama will
be fought out.
It is of much interest, then, to know the local
ities. distances and topography of this region,
which is to become historical by this struggle
The distance from Atlanta to Rome is about 6ff
miles; to Dalton, 1 Off; to Chattanooga 140. The!
distance from BlueMonntaid to Rome is 58 miles:
to Kingston, 70, to Daltn, 7.'>: to Chattanooga,
104: to Bridgport, 85; to Huntsville, !*5. The to
pograph}' of the country is rugged and mountain
ous, with many streams and bad-road. This re
gion contains tour rivers, the Chattahooche, the
Etowah, the Oostanaula, and the Tennessee. The
first flows iu seven miles of Atlanta, and thence to
West Point. The two latter unite at. Rome, and
foim tfie Coosa, which flows southward to Mont
gomery. The Coosa is navigable for steamboats
from Greensport to Rome. 1'be Tennessee flews
war dining tbe ensuing winter. It is important
that the railroad be extended about 26 miles fur- j
ther. This can easily be done, as the read is al
ready graded, and iron can be brought from the 1
Georgia roads. Congress, or not waiting for the
meeting of Congress, tbe President, should have

in assuming command ot this important Military

The tail cf Mobile would open fhe Alabama, War-
rior and Bigbte rivers to tbe enemy, aud lay the !
h-st portions of Alabama open to the enemy. It
would then he difficult even to hold Selma, the :
other terminus of onr road. It would require an! Division,! enjoin upon all officers and soldiers haVmony
army to doit. The fall of Mobile would, very i zcftl, implicit and piompt obedience to oidera and con-
probably, drive <>iir army from this liue of opera-! tidenee in themselves aud their eonannuders, and suc
tions. Mobile lias thus become a point of the! cess will t lieu surely crown their tff.nts to drive the
highest strategic value. It must Jie held at all ;

I lie following are tlie officers of my personal and

Any man who has a map. and who understands
the science of war, has all the means of making
up opinions that 1 have. I am telling no secrets to
the enemy. He knows all this as well as I do. If
anybody flatters me by saying that Sherman wilfc
profit by my suggestion, I have only to say, that j
