Thursday Evening. From Apalachicola. —Some few weeks since the Yankees came up to Apalachicola from the Mociiuing fleet and burned the jail and the out buildings belonging to the same. They then set fire to a wooden warehouse on Water street be longing to Mr. Thomas Orman, which communi cated with the brick stores of Atkins & Dunham, John Humphries & C. G. Holmes, all of which were consumed with, their contents, consisting mostly of office furniture, cotton tables and safes— being left there on the evacuation of the place in 1862. The Richmond Whig reports a sale—first of this season—o f Confederate bonds, eight per cent., of all the issues in market, at prices ranging very ii regularly from 914 to 129. The Post Office c-f the Army of Tennessee was destroyed, with its contents, in thelabandonmentof Atlanta. Mr. Mills, the special agent of the Post Office Department, is now in Griffin : making ar rangements for its re-organization, which he to effect at an early day. / [From the Atlanta Intelligencer, Btu.] Tlie Position in Georgia. On Tuesday morning the Yankee army ex hibited evidence of retirement. Our people, with their usual hopefulness, soon reported the movement to be a retreat, and many sur mises and speculations concerning the cause were rife among the street critics. The great er number have concluded that our cavalry movements in the rear have produced the unusual manoeuvre. But if such a movement is in progress at all, it is so Obscure and will be made so carefully and with such masterly skill that we will not discover it until every avenue of safety is secured and all danger avoided by the wily Sherman. To us, the movement seems a reiteration of Sherman’s operations hitherto. His marches in force on our right, simply obliges a cor responding movement on our part, and the objective point, the Yankee General seeks', being thus weakened, is made an early prize to his strategy. Again, he masses his force and moves on our left, and by the quiet and merely threat ening operation of weight, outbalances us and forces us to another position. Thus by a systematic series of zigzag, reverse move ments, he displaces our army from every posi tion it assumes. Sherman prosecutes war deliberately, like a business or laboring man works. He marches his men into position all the daylong, usually by long stages, and in the evening for an hour or two. delivers battle, or at least invites it. Thus it occurs that if our troops gain any ad vantages, nightfall prevents any advance or continuation of it, but if the Yankees gain the advantage or advance, they render their posi tion very strong during the night, and it is thus that Sherman has forwarded his army by impregnable and perfect parallels, over almost every mile of ground that he has traveled from the Tennessee river to Lovejoy’s in Geor gia, Such a network of fortifications has never been seen or made on earth, before the pres ent campaign. The most extraordinary invent ive genius and the most superhuman labor of man, have been applied to the machinery of his advance and with what success the pres-, ent position of the two armies disclose. It may be and it is very probable that Sher man may abandon the line . df pursuit along the RI. &. W. R. R. This movement on our right may be to more effectually secure the route toward Augusta, the railroad to which, he is rapidly repairing at present. Enpassant, we may state that he is running his trains unimpeded and with the utmost safety, daily to Newnan on the West Point railroad. Some conjectures are made that a grand movement will be made on Milledgeville, and much plausibility is given to the view by the assertion that the Yankee army will then be supplied from both roads and have the power to strike either at Macon or Augusta and take in the Capitol on the route. This is a huge plan, but if Sherman prom ises to consummate it we presume ho will do it, and we perhaps can only sit afid wring our hands in agony of suspense and anticipation whilst he advances and thank Heaven when he has passed. Our advance was at Lovejoy’s Station on Wednesday morning and no movements of any consequence threatening or apparently in op eration. It is whispered, only rumored, that General “Reliable" Hardee has been ordered to the command of the array. We doubt it, and doubt very much whether he should accept it note, because it is nought but injustice to him that the Army of Tennessee, in its present condition, should be carried, with all its.fear ful responsibilities, by so gallant and earnest a soldier, and that results that cannot be se cured or attained by any man, should be de manded of him. We hope that Gen. Hardee may not become another victim and sacrifice to the whims of Mr. Davis. Tlie Front. The Griffin Rebel of the 7th says: There has bden no change in the condition of affairs in our front. The report mentioned in our last, that the enemy had disappeared is confirmed. They seem to have moved off with much precipita tion, leaving all their entrenching tools and much other debris on the ground. Whether they have fallen back to Atlanta or are making another movement on our flank has not been developed.— It is understood that we now occupy Jonesboro. Fiie Yankees in Atlanta. From a gentleman who left Atlanta several days after the city fell, we learn some interesting parti culars of the doings of the Yankees and the con duct of the people of the city. Two or three days after the enemy entered, the officers gave a grand ball at the Trout House, and invited many of the citizens to attend. To their shame be it said, the invitation was accepted in many instances, and women, we cannot call them ladies, who were loud est in their protestations of loyalty to the South, were “hand in glove’’ with the Yankees on the night of the ball. It is represented to have been quite a brilliant affair: plenty of champaign was drank in honor of the success achieved by the Federal arms, and the party ended at a late hoar in the morning, after great glorification. One of the first orders issued by the Ykmkees in - • formed the negroes that they were no longer slaves, but “free American citizens of African descent." There were many negroes in the city, and we should n7tt be surprised if some of the “colored ladies ’ attended the Yankee celebration ball. We regret to learn that among the first citizens who took the oath of allegiance to the Federals was Mr. J. E. Buchanan, formerly “Ijasiness man ager" of the Intelligencer This gentleman re mained in Atlanta with the Fire Battalion, daring the investment of that city. We trust the state ment is incorrect, as a personal acquaintance with Mr. Buchanan, made us expect better things of him. There is but little or no business carried on in the city, except by a few traitors who concealed tobacco for the express purpose of selling it to the enemy -shouid*Ui*y enter the town. These crea tures. we learn, are doing a brisk business with the Yankee suttlers. There is a Provost Marshal ani a guard of one Brigade on duty in the city: ail the other troops® a re encamped outside of the city. —Macon Tele graph, 6 th. Casualties in the 64th Georgia Regiment.

A. 64th Ga. Vols. Tlie {Lincoln Policy in Ken tucky. The design? of the Administration in its recent despotic course in Kentucky can no longer be con cealed ; it is the complete overthrow of a free bal lot so as to secure that State for the Prestdential joker. "Only this and nothing more.-” Disaffected voters of course will not be allowed to approach the polls. Such a thing could not be tolerated. This would be to give treason the upper hand, which is simply preposterous. If tho freemen of the Dark and Bloody Ground desire to rote, there is only one man they can vote for, and that is Honest Old Abe. What more do they want ? Won't the negroes who are in the army vote for him ? and if he is a good enough candidate for the negroes, he ought to be for the whites. There are some, it is true, who go so far as to find fault with all this; but they are sadly behind the times. Don’t they know that certain modern improvements, recommended by the Beast Buiter, have been made in the Constitution and that wo are now enjoying all tha benefits which those improve ments are supposed to confer! For our own part, we are inclined to be very ungrateful, very contu macious, and we almost venture to express the hepe that tho free white men of Kentucky will be equally so. We go farther—we trust that they will insist on their right to vote and fight for it if there is no other reset left. This man Lincoln mustlearn that he is not mas ter of a free people : that, however, he may mould negroes to his will, white men are not made of the same plastic stuff. , The remonstrance which we published in last week's Reeord and Vindicator expose a settled purpose on the part of the Administration to pre vent such a- thing as a fair and unrestricted vote ; but we think there ' is a still more forcible way of bringing the infamous machinations and scheme of the Washington Cabal to light. Let all who were prevented at the last election in Kentucky from vo ting, by military interference, be counted, and the figures given to the country, so that the fraud may be made known. Let the matter then be made the‘subject of special and scathing denunci ation of every Democratic meeting that is held throughout the country, previous to the next elec tion, and let the Democracy of every Northern State pledge themselves to stand by the freedom of the ballot in Kentucky oven with arms in their hands if neeessary. It will come to this in the end, and it 53 as well to look the matter fairly and squarely in the faae. —Metropolitan Record.

A Very Foolish Lie. —We see a statement in some of the Georgia papers, said to be tak ken from a Yankee paper, that a Commis sioner had reached Washington City from Georgia, asking on what terms Georgia can return to the Union. The whole Btory is a lie from beginning to end. We are authorized by Gov. Brown to say that no Commissioner lias been sent from Georgia to the United States, or to the Gov ernment of the United States, upon the sub ject of peace, or upon any other business what ever.—Confederate Union, 6th. Blucber and His Pipe Bearer at the Battle of Waterloo. Old Field Marshal Blucber was particularly fond of three things—a glass of wine, a game' of cards, and a. pipe of tobacco. With the two former he was frequently obliged to dis pense, but he could not and would not do without the latter, nor could he help indulging in smoking, if it were ever so little, before he undertook anything serious. A few puffs at the spur of the moment would satisfy him, but to be without them at all, was a matter of impossibility. For this purpose, he had ap pointed as his pipe-bearer one of his “boys,’’ (as ha used to call his hussars,) a fellow countryman from Bostock—Christian Henne man—who had charge ot a large box of Dutch clay pipes, all filled with tobacco, and ready for use at a moment’s notice. This box con stituted the principal item of tfie MarshaFa field equippage. Henneman was so devoted to his master and his charge, that he would have killed on the spot any one who attempted to purloin a pipe from the box, or bring the latter iu danger of breaking some of the pre cious (to him sacred) contents. On the morning of the memorable battle of Water loo, Henneman had just handed his master a lighted pipe, when a cannon ball struck the ground close by, scattering earth and gravel in all directions, and causing the white charger on which he wa3 mounted, to spring aside—a manoeuvre that broke the pipe into a thousand pieces before the owner had time even to lift it to his lips. “Just keep a light ed pipe ready for me; I shall be back in a few moments, after I have driven away the rascally French churls.” With these words Blucber gave the command, “Forward, boys !” and off he galloped with his cavalry. Instead, however, of a chase of a few minutes, it was a rapid march of nearly a whole hot summer day, as we all know from history-. After the battle was over, Biucher rode back with Wellington to the place where he first got a glimpse of the combatting armies, and nearing the spot where Biucher had hal ted in the morning, they saw to their sur prise, a solitary man, his heaiq/dad with a handkerchief, one arm in a slin*, and calmly smoking a pipe. “Donner and Blitz,” cried Biucher, “why that is my Henneman. How you look boy ; what are you doing here alone?” “Waiting for your speedy return,” was the grumbling answer. “You have come at last. I have waited for you here, pipe in mouth, for the whole long day. This is the last pipe in the box. The cursed French have shot away every pipe from my mouth, have ripped the flesh from my head, and shattered my arm with their dueced bullets. It is well there is an end to the battle, or you would 1 have been too late even for the last pipe.”— Saying which he handed to Biucher the pipe to enjoy the remaining fumes of the weed.— Wellington, who had listened attentively to the conversation, here remarked to Biucher, “You have just admired the unflinching loy alty and bravery of my Highlanders, what j shall I say to this true and devoted soul?” “But your highlanders had no pipes to re> i gale themselves with.— Bentley's Miscellany. Daniel Webster as a Schoolboy. —lt is narrated of him that when he first appeared at the academy of Mr. Abbott, his personal appearance in his ill-fitting, home-made, homespun garments, together with his shy, awkward manneTs, created much merriment among the boys, and many jokes were cracked at his expense. Young Daniel’s sensitive nature could ill brook this; and, after suffering from it for two or three days, he went to the teacher and told him he mu3t go home. The teacher inquired the cause, and Dan iel made a clean breast of it. The former bade him not mind it, but keep quietly at his studies, and his turn would come by and by. He obeyed; and at the end of the week he was placed at the head of the class that had ridiculed him. After two months had passed in hard study, the teacher, at the close of the school one day, called him up, in presence of all the scho lars, and told him he could not stay there any longer; to go and get his books and hat and leave. Poor Daniel’s heart sunk down to his shoes. He had studied hard, bearing patiently the ridicule of his mates, and now to be turned off in disgrace, was more than he could stagger under. The teacher waited a moment to watch the as tonishment of the school, and then added. ‘‘This is no place for you; go to the higher department!” That was probably the proudest moment in Mr. Webster’s life. He had triumphed over his companions, and that by outstripping them in their studies. Romas Catholic Priest Killed in Battle. —The Rev.

Dental Attention for the Soldiers. Within the past two months an arrangement has been made by the Surgeon Generaf of the Confederate States and the Medical Director ot the State ot I irginia, which must eouduce to the health and comfort of our soldiers. Two skillful dentists, men of ability in their profession and of the highest inteyritv of character, have been detailed from the irmy to attend gratuitously in the line of their pro» session certain ol the most extensive hospitals in this city and its vicinity. One of these g'entlemen attends Chimborazo, Seabrooks’, Howards, Grove, and the General ialms house) Hospitals; the other the Jackson and the-Winder Hospitals. The amount of work done by them in each of these institutions every week is immense, comprehending, as it does, every branch of the profession except the manufacture of artificial teeth. Besides extracting and filling teeth, operat’ons of ihe first consequence to the patient, in many cases they are called upon to construct plates and appliances for the setting ot fractured- jaw bones. We leitrn that the soldiers are ex tremely gratetui to the government for bestow ing upon them this species of attention. Many of them have had their teeth filled and their mouths otherwise put iu complete order, who, for months and years past have been kept away from the dentist solely by reason of the expense, which they were unable to meet. We hope that the wisdom and humanity of this arrangement will so commend it to the authorities, that steps will be taken to put the services ot a skillful dentist within the reach of every soldier in our armies. [Richmond Examiner. Richmond Gossip . —Tho Richmond correspond ent of the Charleston Meroury, writes thus under date of Aug. 31: A delegation, not of Yankees, either from the West or East, has arrived here. All I can say of thmr mission is, that if successful, as no doubt it will be, it will further the cause in no small de gree. The city papers, except the Whig, have seeeded from the Press Association, and chosen Mr. Patrick Henry Gibson as their agent. To-morrow the new organization begins. .

Grant, Saermau, Butler or Hancock. Such a nomination would unite the party. Nothing else over will. Divided as the par ty now is between the friends of Lincoln, Fre mont, Chase, Seward and Weed, the party cannot avoid a most humiliating defeat in November.— The catastrophe can yet be averted, but only by the declension of Mr. Lincoln. The Exchange of*Prisoners.— The Washington correspondent of the American says, upon this sub ject : No arrangement for a renewal of the exchange of prisoners has yet been made. The rebel authori ties are very eager to renew the exchange of prison by which they would secure a reinforcement to their depleted armies of sixty to seventy thou sind robust, weii fed and valuable men, in rerurn for those whom their barbarity and inhumanity have reduced to acoudithm from which months of careful nursing and rest will be required to restore to a condition of usefulness. They do not, how ever, manifest a disposition to do so upon fair and equitable terms. The news of the blowing up of Grant’s mine has reached Europe, and elicited a just indignation.— The London correspondent of thaPhiladelphia In quirer writes: As might have been expected also, the news which has just reached here of the destruction of one of the Confederate fort3 at Petersburg, with a regi ment ot soldiers, by Gr.mt, has been received with a universal howl of virtuous indignation. Tho act is stigmatized as one of tho most barbarous on re cord; wo are called a nation of savages, and Lord Shaftesbury and his clique invoke the judgment of Heaven upon the leaders of an army that can resort to what is called “wholesale butchery in cold blood.” There is little use in urging here that En glish Generate have been guilty of still greater atro cities. Many people are relying on the democratic party to do what, it seems to us, we have to do. That is, conquer a peace. Not one man in a hundred in that section is ready to make a, peace, unless on the condition that the South shall be made a desert, and the enemy shall call that peace. W» had bet terabandon any notion of peace, except that forced from the enemy.. There will be no other.

It has been ascertained that the late destructive fire at Americus was caused by a negro boy, who confesses to have lighted a pipe in the warehouse, throwing the match on the floor, only a few minutes before the fire was discovered. It is be lieved that the boy did not design to fire the building. Chas.
