Thero is a line of couriers from Romo
to Lebanon, through whom regujar
communication is kept up. The ene<
my still occupy Sand Mountain and a
portion of Wills Valloy, having made
ne change of position during the two
days preceding yesterday. The object
of the expedition probably is to procure
forage.
A Ge*d Chance for New Cavalry
Companies.
Thero are several cavalry companies
in this section of the .StpJo, made up
without authority from the Secretary of
War, and it is almost impossible f-vr
them to get the authority now. But
Capt Scott has authority to organize a
Regiment, and a few more of these
componies can get into his command.

Impressing Free Negroes.
Jt seems that free men of color have
got td eome in and take a small part
in the relief of the fibuntry ns team,
sters, laborers] &c. Higginbottom and
Billy Barrett, the barber, were enrolled
by Capt. Oabbett, for service in the
Nitre Bureau Department. These
“gemmen of color" have made quite
snug little fortunes sinoe the war com<
monced, and it is no more titan right,
that they should do something for the
government that protects them.
Lt. Wm. A. Rosbu.l, of the Cherokee
Artillery arrived at home yesterday.
For the past five or six months ho has
been acting. Adjutant of the Post at
Meridian, Mississippi. He will soon
rojom his old Battery'.-
Gen. John H. Morgan’s Command, it
is rumored, are to rendezvous at this
place, and that the distinguished officer
himself is expected in Rome to-day.
We have no moans of determining the
truth of the report.
Home-made Hats tor Ladies.—Wo
were shown, yesterday, says the Atlan
ta Register, a beautiful specimen of
home-made hats for ladies, manufactus
red by a young lady from Floyd county,
in this State. Thcso hats were, made
of cotton, in the following manner:
The “warp” is drawn in single-sleighed
and cotton rolls of any color desired, it
is then., carded, to make it smooth,
which gives it the appearance of a soft
ftir hat. Wo think our -lady readers
will do well to give this mode of mak
ing their own hats, a fair trial.
J&'It is now thought that Sherman’s
designs are aimed at Geo. Polk, and
not directod against Mobile. Wo have
supposed that the Yankees intended
to pi-event the advance of auy part of
•ur forces into West Tennessee.

It seems that he just remained there

and" then left. We would have been
more pleased had he not gone to Rich
mond this session at all. #
The Examiner pronounces the pre-
amble and resolutions of Mr. Wright
extraordinary,” and well may that
paper so pronounce them. But after
all, says the Atlanta Intelligencer, they
are only Mr. Wright’s resolutions, and
we trust will be permitted so to remain,
receiving no endorsement in the Con
federate Congress from any member
thereof. The time has passed for the
Confederate Government, or its Con.
gross to be making overtures to the
Lincoln government for peace; to sue
to it for any faVor; to humble and dis
grace itself by supplications or over
tures of any sort, to the bloody despo
tUm which now governs the. .North'.
Tho excuse upon the face of Mr
Wright’s resolutions, why overtures
should be made to tho United States
through their Government at Wash
ington by the Conicderate States,
that the latter “ma/ stand justified in
the sight of tho conservative men of
the North of all parties, anil that tlijj
world may know which of the two
governments it is that urges, on a war
unparalleled for the fierceness of tlje
conflict, and intensifying into a see
'tional hatred unsurpassed in the annals
of mankirid.” Poor excuse this! In
the -judgment of “conservative mqn”
at the North, by which tec mean only
those wlio arc friendly to the South,
and who would bo willing with peace
to. recognize Southern Indopondenco,
we stand already justified; and as for
“the world,” it already knows which
of the “two governments”'it is that is
urging on this horribleand unnaturally
brutal war. It does not- require any
such declaration on the part of Con-
gross, as is proposed by Mr. Wright, at
this time, to satisfy either Northern
“Conservatives” or the “world” which
of the "two governments” is the re
sponsible party for the war, its horrors,
or its continuance; and wo regret ex
ceedingly. that ho could render no bet
ter apology for the introduction of his
preamble and resolutions into Congress
than ho has done.
But we object not only to Mr. Wright’s
apology for the introduction of his pre
amble and resolutions, hut denounce
the object ho seems desirous to attain.
First, ho proposes to ascertain whether
the commission he- would raise, “can
not agrefi upon the recognition of the
Con federate States of America;” and,
second, in the event, of Buch recognition,
whether thoy cannpt agreo upon the
formation of a now government, found
ed upon the eqaality and sovereignty
of the Stales.”
And Was it for to, that so' much
blood has been spilled, bo much of
Southern territory devastated?. First,
to have our independence recognized,
tor, to pat him upon the shoulder and
say, “Go it, Calonel,” “Go it, Bob,”'&c,
Our informant states that the conduc
tor had him arrested, and got some offi
cer to perfer Charges. He is being tried
now by a couirt in Savannah.

and, second, to go back to Abolitlondom,
and become again one Government, one
people ? What a consummation 1
If, however, this unity, this “now
Government” cannot be formod, their
Mr. Wriglit proposes, thirdly, that the
commission from the “two Govern
ments” sha\l ascertain “whether they
cannot agree upon treaties offensive,
defensive, and commercial 1”
Away with all such folly 1 It is not
“in this humor” that our enemy mast
be “wooed ;” it is not “in this humor’*
that our independence is to be. “won.”
It is not “in"this humor” that wo can
preserve our l>»nor, or avenge the
thousands who have fallen that the
South might be froed from bondage to
the North. This proposition for “re-
construction,” for it is nothing else in
our judgment, wo trust, will receive no
consideration at all in Congress. It is
“more in sorrow than in anger” that we
have notioed it. Hailing, howover,
from our own State, as Mr. Wright
does, we have felt it our duty thus to
notico, and thus to denounce it.
Special to the Rebel.

Arrest ot Col. Toombs. -
From an officer of Col. Toombs’ regi
mont, who read the charges upon which
Col. T, was recently arrested in Savah

While his regiment was en route from
Augusta to Savannah, Col. Toombs had
fires made in tho box cars—having pre
viously had dirt thrown upon the floors,
so that his men might warm themselves,
,the weather being very cold. This.it
is said, the conductor objected • to, and
ordered the engineer to “cut oil’” the
boxes and leave them. As o natural
consequence, Col. T, objected to this,
and informed the conductor, in rather
harsh terms, that ho should carry tho
