Good News from the Georgia Front. We have some encouraging rumors from Augusta and Savannah, as to the numbers and distribution of cur forces and the Generals | commanding them, which, if true, (and we have the reports from reliable authority) will enable our people to breath freer as to Sher man s movements in Georgia. That cunning General will be apt to meet with obstacles that he little dreamed of in the plan of his campaign, and if he gets out of Georgia witii ; out being awfully used up, he may consider himself lucky. To the Rescue!— Gov. Bonham, of South I Carolina, has ordered the entire Reserve force | of that State, (nearly ten thousand men,) to | rendezvous at Hamburg, near Augusta, Ga., ! prepared for active duty. (Communicated.) To iiie People of Georgia. The time is approaching when you will elect | Justices of the Inferior Court and of the Peace. Remember that these offices exempt the holders from military service, and doubtless many men will seek them for that reason. See to it that you elect to them ho man who is subject to and able to go the field. There are in the country plenty of old men and disabled soldiers to fill those offices. The country needs every man in the that is able to go there, and you owe it to yourselves, you owe it to the country, you owe it to your wives and children, and you owe it your sons, and brothers, and fathers, who are facing the dangers and suffering the hardships of war, that you send every man to help them that is able to go. Y T ou ought not to support for office of any sort, men who are keeping out of the army now ; much lass to support them for the purpose of enabling them to stay out. If they have property at home that needs their attention, ?o much the more reason why they should go and fight for it. Every man in the army ceuld find more pleas ant business at home than there. Don’t wait for the approach of the election to make your ar rangements, but set about it at once. Put up your old men and disabled soldiers and elect them. And don’t permit yourselves to feel indifferent about it, and that it is a small matter, but let every man go to the polls on the day of election. | Lot it be a matter of principle and of pride with | every man that his county shall not by its vote j kocp a man out of the field who ought to go. JAMES N. BETHUNE. ♦ Kentuckians Going to Forkest. —The ! New Albany (Indiana) Ledger says that a i Confederate battery is reported on the Mis* I sissippi at Brandywine Point, above Island 37. | The steamers Chenauge and Platte Valley I were attacked in going up. and two persons killed. Gunboats are now at the bend, ahd further trouble need not be apprehended. The Henderson (Kentucky) News say? that the great bulk of drafted men in Kentucky are going into the rebel service. General Lyon has his headquarters at Paris, Tenn., with seven hundred men ana eight pieces of ar tillery. Latest from Mississippi.— A private dis patch from Canton received in this city, (says the Selma Mississippian, 25th,) says the Yan kees are at Big Black, 5,000 strong. The com missary's and quartermaster's stores are being removed from Canton. If is probable the Yankees will undertake to sweep through the State, taking Jackson and Canton in their raid. Governor Clark’s militia ought to be amply able to gobble up 5.000 Yankees. [Special Correspondence es the Memphis Appeal.] From Atlanta, Atlanta. Ga., Nov. 29th. 1864. You have heard before this that the Fede ral have burned and evacuated Atlanta ; but for information of the refugees and the exiles who have been driven from their homes, allow me to trouble 70U with a few lines, as all will be anxious to know whether their homes have been spared by the vandal hands. There is not a house standing on Whitehall street from Rowark's corner to Westley chapel on Peachtree street, and on Marietta from the street running from the Baptist church ; down Decatur street a short distance below Colonel Cowart's building, on Decatur street. All the railroad depots are burned, including the pas senger depot. AH the hotels, foundries, rail road shops, Government works and mills are burned. As I came into the city on last even ing, I observed only three buildings of note standing west of the Macon road—Col. Col yer’s, Hammock's and Dr. Sells’. T. M. Clark s house is the only building standing between Peter’s street and the railroad. Col. Peter's house and the two houses south of it are standing. All the houses on Marietta street are burned except a short space from Dr. Powell's to Robinson's house, oppqsite ; the State depot. Except Norcross', Mills’, L. Dean’s and B. O. Jones’, no houses are burned on Peachtree street beyond Westley chapel.— Inman’s, Holbrooks', Landale's and Nox's buildings are burned. Col. Glenn's and Ran j son’3 dwellings are not burned. Col. L. P. Grant’s and Dr. Grant's bouses ! are burned, also Col. Gartrell's house ; the jail is burned, and all the buildings between ' that and the Fair Ground. Only three or four houses are burned on McDonough street, one of which is Mrs. Rucker's, the house adjoin ing and just above Wm. Watkins is burned; the Female College was pulled down to put I up a fort on the spot. Engine houses Nos. 1 land 2 are unhurt, also the Masonic and City 1 Hall; the City Hall was saved by the'appeais [ and petitions of Mrs. Hoicombe, who lives I only a few steps from it. The churches are [aU unhurt, except the new Episcopal and I Pain's churches. Most all of the residences lin the city have been burned that were unoc- I copied. Just think of it—a city, four months I ago, with a population of twenty thousand, I now about six hundred and seventy-five or; I eighty men ; the balance women and children. I There are some fifteen or twenty negroes left lin the place ; the balance have all been sent I North. They nave burned all the fencing around the cemetery and most of the pailings , around the graves, and burstei open the vault belonging to Mr. Gordon, containing the re mains of his wife and the bodies of three or four other persons, looking for gold and other valuables that they supposed had been hid in vault. Among the old citizens remaining are Drs. E. X. Calhoun and Dalvigaa. Pat. Lynch. Bill ‘ Harviile: J. E. Bartlett and John Silsey E>r. Dalvigaa succeeded in saving tue uiedicalcol | lege from the Sames. Mark Hell's calico house is unhurt. The citizens say that the Yankee army left here swearing that they in tended tp split and quarter the Southern Confederacy, and plant their colors upon the walls of Savannah. A great many of their soldiers are said to have left here with a great deal of reluctance—dreaded the trip. It is said that some of the Kentuckians went off in handcuffs ; they have some fears of meeting with Gens. Lee or Beauregard. Their teams, or transportation, are reported to be in a bad condition. Respectfully. Z. A. Rick. War Resolutions. The following resolutions were offered ir. the Confederate Senate on the 18th instant bv Mr. Henry, of Tennessee. The whole country will respond to them with a hearty amen : Joint Resolutions defining the position of the Confederate States, and declaring the deter mination of the Congress and the People therof to prosecute the war till their inde pendence is acknowledged. Resolved, by the Congress of the Confeder ate States of America, That the people of the Confederate States are endowed by their Cre ator with the inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these high rights Governments were institu ted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, and when ever any Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to al ter or abolish it and to institute anew Gov ernment, laying its foundation on such prin ciples and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness: that in these principles, embodied in the Declaration of American Independence, the United Colonies, in 1776, dissolved the connection that bound them to the Government of Great Britain, and on them the Confederate States have severed the-bonds of that political union which connected them with the people and the Government of the United States of America, rather than submit to the repeated injuries inflicted upon them by that people, and to the usurpations of that'Government, all of which had the direct object to deprive them of their rights secured to them by con stitutional guaranties, and an absolute tyranny over these States. Resolved, That the Confederate States ap pealed to arms in defence of these rights, and to establish these principles only after they had in vain conjured the people and the Gov ernment of the United States, by all the ties of a common kindred, to discountenance and discontinue these injuries and usurpations, and after they had petitioned for redress in the most appropriate terms, and received in answer only a repetition of insults and inju ries, which foreshadowed usurpations still more dangerous to liberty. Resolved, That after nearly four years of cruel, desolating and unnatural war, in which the people of the Confederate States have un questionably established their capacity /or self-government, and their ability to resist the attempts of the enemy to subjugate them, this Congress doe3 not hesitate to aver its sincere desire for peace, and to that end proclaims to the world the readiness of the Government of the Confederate States to open negotiations to establish a permanent and honorable peace between the Confederate States and the Unia ted States, upon the basis of the separate in dependence of the former. Resolved, That the time has come when the Confederate Congress, in the name of the peo ple of the Confederate States, deem it proper again to proclaim to the world their unalter able determination to be free, and that they do not abate onejotof their high resolve to die freemen rather than live slaves ; and further, if the people of the United States by re-electing Abraham Lincoln mean to tender to them four years more of war, or re-union with them on any terms, deeply deprecating the dire neces sity so wantonly thrust upon them, and rely upon the justice of their cause and the gal lantry of their soldiers, they accept the gage of battle, and leave the result to the righteous arbitrament of heaven. Resolved, That in view of the determina tion of the enemy to prosecute this horrid war still farther, against which the Confederate States have at all times protested, and which the enemy have waged with extraordinary vigor, and which has been marked by acts of extraordinary atrocity, in violation of the usuages of civilized warfare, the Congress of the Confederate States will, from this hour, dedicate themselves anew to the great cause of self-defence against the combined tyranny of the enemy. That it shall no louger’be the momentous occupation of the Congress and the people of the Confederate States, but the business of their lives, to gather together the entire strength of the country in men and ma terial of war. and put it forth, as with the will of one man. and with a.i unconquerable determination to defend their altars and their firesides till the last votary of freedom fails around them. Arbitrary Acts o? tuk Administration.— The catalogue of newspapers suppressed by order of Mr. Lincoln, which we published a few days since, has produced widespread astonishment, as well it might. Long as that was, we find it far from complete, and already we have additions to make. We beg our friends in all directions to send us newspaper extracts, with dates carefully marked, which describes arbitrary acts of the Ad ministration, whether toward newspapers or indi viduals. It was our intention to prepare a similar cata logue relating to the seizure and imprisonment of citizens. But we find that a mere list, with the briefest mention possible in each case, would fill not less than eighteen columns of our paper. This tremendous list is exclusively made up of arbitrary seizures of individuals who were dragged from their families, without indictment, without war rant, without form of law, without being con fronted with witnesses against them, without being informed of the nature of the charges against them, immured for weeks and months in dungeons, often a thousand miles away from the State in w’niGh they were seized, and finally turned loose without trial or apology. The list includes no military offenders. It is made up entirely of the nam*3 es citizens of the loyal States, in which the courts of justice have rfever been suspended, where every crime, whether treason or other, eouid have been punished in due form of law. The catalogue of orders made in re lation to these victims of autocratic power is a terrible book for history. Careful as we have boea to preserve the record of these proceedings under the reign of Mr. Lincoln, we find that we have missed many in past years For the purposes of history we a3k the aid of our friends in sending us the particulars of any and every case heretofore and hereafter. We cannot find in ail our reading of histery a record which compares with this.— N. Y. Journal of Commerce.

In case of a change of commanders of either of said camps, notice will be given accordingly. The commander of each camp will call upon the Confederate Commissaries and Quartermasters at the place for all necessary supplies. Gen. Beau regard promises to issue tho necessary orders to these officers. It will be the duty of each commandant of a camp to organize as rapidly as possible ail who report, into companies, battalions, and regimoats, In ali cases where enough men report they will be formed into a regiment or regiments : when not a enough for a regiment they will bo formed into a battalion or company. The organizations already formed under my proclamation in Cherokee an i North. Eastern Georgia, will bo maintained if they reporta rganizations, but in case of battaMm? they must when it is practicable, unite and form a regiment. All officers net already in commission in these organizations, will be elected by the men to be commanded, and the same rule of election will apply in case of all new organizations. Com missions will issue on the receipt of the returns at tho Adjutant A Inspector General's office at Ma con. In the* meantime those elected will com mand as brevet officers. All cavalry organiza tions will report dismounted. When needed as cavalry in future they may be remounted. They are not now needed on horse. The commandant at camp may excuse necessa ry physicians not exceeding three to a oounty; the three soleeted by the Inferior Court wherever a selection has been made by them. All actual millers engaged in the mills as such when needed at home, will be excused. In extreme cases of hardship, whore it is the unanimous report of the neighbors, that humanity requires it, on account of the condition of the family, as in case of a blind or insane wife, Ac., temperary exemptions may be graated. This power is to be exercised with great cau tion, as it is subject to abuse, and a thorough or ganization of all persons able to bear arms in this emergency is absolutely necessary. The commandant at Athens will confer and consult with Brig. Gen. Reynolds, who is respect fully requested to give all the aid in his power by couriers to circulate my proclamation and these orders in North Eastern and Cherokee Georgia, and to aid iu furnishing supplies to the milifL camp. All persons under fifty years of age who are subject under my previous order to service in Major General Smith’s command of Militia, and who have failed to report will be denied the privi lege of goi pg into the new organizations, aai will be sent forward to their respective commands under General Smith. This will not affect the organizatiens which have heretofore under my proclamation been formed in upper Georgia in the rear of the enemy if they now report prompt ly as organizations, but will apply in all other cases. Only those not subject to duty under General Smith will be received in new organiza tions. JOSEPH E. BROWN. Mayoralty.
