AT the Theatre on Monday evening, a GOLD TOOTH-PICK, which the owner can hare by applying at this office aq,d paying for this adver tisement, nev 23 It Friday Evening. We take the following items from the Tele graph & Confederate of the 23d: It was rumored in town yesterday that Hood had whipped Thomas and captured large numbers of prisoners, wagons, kc. We trust it may prove true. Yesterday an engine and car went up to G-riffiu and back. A train leaves this morn ing on regular schedule time, o’clock. There was a slight fall of snow in torvn yesterday 7 morning, early. We understand that every house at Gris- i woldville was burned by the enemy, with the exception of the residence of Mr. Griswold, i All of his outhouses, however, were destroyed. Atlanta has been evacuated and completely burned. Lieut. Gen. Dick Taylor arrived in town yesterday morning. He seems in excellent health, and will doubtless add new laurels to those already won. About 800 yards of the Central Road was burned two miles from the city. We learn that thi* has been repaired and it is probable the mails will go through in a day or tw*. We learn that Gen. Wheeler, on Monday evening, attacked the enemy in the neighbor hood of Clinton, whipped them badly, killed a large number and captured three hundred prisoners and forty wagons. The Yankees, on the late raid, passed through Indian Springs, but, wonderful to re late, committed no acts of vandalism. The Battle of Griswoldvilie. On Tuesday afternoou our forces under* command of General Phillips came upon the pickets of the enemy this side of Griswoldvilie. Our forces immediately deployed in line of battle and skirmishers were thrown forward. They drove in the pickets and then advancing upop their skirmish Hue, drove them steadily backwards the town and two miles beyond, where they came upon the main body of the enemy strongly entrenched. Our men advanced boldly to the attack and a severe and protracted fight continued until dark, when our troop3 were ordered to fall back, which they did in the best of order. No at tempt was made by the enemy to follow. We learn that the militia force behaved with distinguished gallantry, advancing upon the enemy’s breastworks in perfect order and with no straggling. They charged through an open field to within fifty yaids of the Yankee works and maintained their ground tiil or dered to withdraw. The Athens Battalion, commanded by Maj. Cook, and the Augusta Battalion, under Maj. Jackson, both under the immediate orders of the former officer, were distinguished for the cool and steady manner in which they bore themselves in the battle. These troops, as well as the militia forces, acted like veterans, aud faced the destructive fire of the enemy with as much firmness a3 could have beeu dis played by the heroes of Hood or Lee. We have heard no estimate of the enemy's loss. We gi v e below a list of our casualties as as far as ascertained. The remainder will be pulished to-morrow. LIST OF CASUALTIES OF THE 3D BRIG ADE G.

The Situation.— A portion of our force last night occupied the battle ground of Griswolds ville, and the advance picket line of the enemy was three miles to the eastward. The Yankee infantry are still moving in the di rection of Augusta. General Wheeler yesterday afternoon fought aud drove the enemy frem the Railroad a f'ow miles from Griswoldsville, capturing fitly priso ners. We are glad to state that our authorities relax none of their vigilance, and are perfectly confident ia the ability of our troops te repulse any attempt the enemy may make against the city. We think, I however, that the Yankees are satisfied with their experience of that portion of onr forces they en countered at Griswoidsville, and have become sat isf »and that the road to Macon is indeed “hard to travel.”— Telegraph & Confederate, 24 th. The late General Conference of the Methodist Church in the Nerth elected three abolitionist bishops, about eight abolition editors, excluded all slaveholders from the church, without the au thority of law, extended the term of th® pastorate to three yoars, created eight new Conferences, made anew ritual and remodeled ihe discipline, made trustees of churches members of the quar terly c#nfarenceß, re-enacted the rule making at tendance upon class-meeting a t*3t es membership, and provided fer the organization of the baptized children of the church iuto classes. A Geen Chancb. —Upea the approach of the enemy towards Milledgeville, Gov. Brown assem bled the cenvicts confined there, and informed them that these whe were willing to volunteer could do so; and that in case they made good and faithful soldiers, he would pardon them. Out of 126, but feur refused the offer. They immediately organized into a Company, and elected the noto rious Dr. Roberts as Captain. Seme five or six es ; the worst characters were, very properly, denied the privilege of volunteering. A good chance is j now offered these men to redeem their characters. ! Telegraph & Confederate. From Milledgeville. —The enemy occupied ! Milledgeville on Sunday evening. They doubtless ! burned the town, as the reflection from large fires were seen ia that direction on Monday night.— | Tel. & Gonfed. | Traveling in Mississippi. —The Jackson correspondent of the Uniontown Herald says: The railroad from Meridian to this point ia in excellent condition, and travelers arriving here can be accommodated with everything that is good and substantial in the eating line, at the hotels or at private boarding houses. I would recommend, among the lat ter. Mrs. Hardy and Mrs. Overmann, both ! estimable ladies, and keep excellent houses.— The trains leave here three times a week for Canton, where, if you wish to continue uji the Missiseippi Central road, you lie over one j night and can be accomodated with the best of fare and bedding, by my old friend, Cal houn, es the Pearce house. Taking the train on the Central road you arrive at Grenada, at 4 p.m. The latter place, since Smith and his i Yankee follower* left it, i3 ofie mass of ruins. They were not satisfied with burning th* town, stealing negroes, cattle and poultry, but all that were not carried off by them, were killed and left to rot on the road. I would advise strangers visiting Oxford to oarry at least tnree days' rations and a blan ket with them, and not get caught as I was. | It being my first visit, I fared badiy. I was i laughed at by the negroes aud boys about the ; railroad when 1 inquired for the hotel. Some even said, ‘-there goes one of Gov. Clark's tax in kind to report to Col. Denis."' I felt rather sheepish, but learned a lesson. I fell in with a Missouri captain, who very xindly showed j me the way to a lodging house, where I was ' accommodated with a bed. but nothing to eat, the landlady saying she had scarcely enough for her own family Your readers , will also acknowledge that Oxford is a poor place, when I was told, in asking change for a huudred dollar note, to pay my bilf, ihai there was but one man in ’the "town who had so much money in six months, and be was the aseistant quartermaster. l Slave Tax Bill. —The House hass passed the bill recommended by Comptroller Thweatt te equalize the taxon slaves. The bill propose- bat the Inferior Courts shall assess the value upon all slaves and make a return to the Comptroller Gen eral, and after the Comptroller General shall have consolidated the returns, he shall then strike an average, and that sha'l he the tax value through out tho State, he notifying the tax receiver of each county.

Mobile, Nov. 24.—A special to the Adver tiser, from Senatofeia, 24tb, says : The Yankee Government is said to be de termined to make the rebels feel the force of the war. An amnesty proclamation is to be issued. The State Department is engaged on Florida affairs. A Nashville correspondent of the Cincinna ti Times, of the 15tht says : One column of Sherman’s army left Atlanta on the 7th, taking the Macon road, and will pass through Milledgeville and probably try to release the Union prisoners. The second column left ou the 12th, taking the direct road to Augusta, which would be reached in fourteen days. The two columns concentrated at Augusta wili move on Charleston, Savannah or Beaufort at deemed proper. Beaufort was the original desti nation. The Macon and Augusta railroads are t > be destroyed. Sherman carries fifty days rations of beef on foot, and bread, and will depend on the country for further supplies. AH the buildings at Atlanta useful to the Con federates were destroyed. Sherman’e army consists es 4 corps and 10,uO® cavalry—total, 47,000. The blockading force oh the Southern ceast is to be largely increased. Early is reported en route alter Sherman. Farra gut is talked of as Secretary of War. Everything at Rome, Ga., useful to the Confed eracy, was destroyed by Sherman. The winter campaign around Richmond is to be active; n® cessation of hostilities, without the to tal defeat of Grant or capture of Richmond. Aa important movement of the Navy, under Porter, is expected. Its probable destiuatiOß is Wil mington. Burnside has taken command es the 9th corps. A. D. Walker is to be Secretary *f Treasury. The Philadelphia Bulletin contains a state mentthat Peace Commissioners will be sent to Richmond. Tue N. Y. Word says if Brazil demands tha surrender of the Florida, the U.

Captain Semmes.— Captain Serames, accompanied by eight ofticers of the Alabama and one hundred men, left Liverpool October 13, to be transferred, with guns, etc., to the steamer Ranger, recently ly ing at Madetia. The Liverpool correspondent of theLendon News, of the 11th of October, has tho following: “ Captain Nemmts, of whom, since the sinking of the Alabama we have heard so little, and that lit-' tie so erroneous, sailed from tho Mersey on Sunday last, on board the bark Laurel, in ‘command of Captain S. F- Ramsey. The destination of the Laurel is rather mysterious at present, but, as far as the custom bills ot entry show the vessel hue certainly cleared for ports where Confederate pro clivities predominate, viz: Nassau, Havana and Jfatainoras. Her cargo is of such a mixed nature i that no belligerent State would have the slightest doubt of its usefulness. It consists of some large guns, small arms, shoes, leather in balk, ammuni | tion, clothes, blankets, drugs, etc. But the Laurel must not be supposed to be intended for a cruiser : she is merely a tender, and carries out to a certain lati'ude, guns and ammunition for anew screw steamer, es which Captain Semmes is to tike com mand. This vessel is suppose to be anew screw steamer which was lying at Madeira on the 3rd in stant, and was there known uuder tho name of the Ranger. “The Ranger is large and very swift. To show that Captain Semmes ’does not go unattended, we may here state that he took with him on board the Laurel eight officers and one hundred men, most of whom served with him. en beard the Alabama,” Tho following is from the London Herald of the 12th of October, on the <ame subject: "We have reason to know that Mr. Adams, the American minister, is aware of Capt. Semmes’ de parture. “Capt. Semmes’ log, while in command of tho Sumter and Alabama, is having a great sale in Paris in a French dress. A cruise of three years, in defi ance of a fleet of five hundred sail, could not but j have its moving and exciting incidents, and tho j French public lends a willing ear to tales of daring | and adventure.” I By Ellis, Livingston & t o ON TUESDAY, 27th inst., at 10J o’clock w« will sell in front of our store j A Likely Negro Boy, 15 years old, ' Two Negro Women, 35 years old; good Washers and Ironors.
