This is a fair specimen of Mr. Reagan’s able manage ment of the Post Oliice Department all over the country. A reform- is needed in these matters at once. Lebanon, Tens. —lt will be seen by reference to our teh graphic d.spatchcs, that the latest news we have of Wheeler's whereabouts is at Lebanon, Tenn. This town is the county seat of Wilson county, thirty-two miles oast of K&snville. It is situated on a branch 01 the Cumberland river, auu is a place of considera ble importance. Heavy Explosion. —Numerous citizens of Covin,ton and Socyil Circle report hearing dis tinctly heard the explosion of the ordinance train at Atlanta, on Friday morning last, and as far down as the Circle the concus irion v ,<a so violent as to shake tho houses.— The light of tho burning buildings, etc., was also seen at the latter place. TiieFieeat Ameiucus Ga.—A negro boy, about fourteen years old has confessed that he probably caused the fire in that place on the auth of August. He admits be was near the place when the lire was first discovered a few minutes previous to its breaking out, and after lighting his pipe threw down the match. All attempts to discover an accessory or in stigator from him, have entirely failed. So that the circumstances resolve them dves into a careless utanaliciousand deplorable accident, to which the crime of intentional incendiarism cannot he aecrib -d; at least much more will have to be substantiated before such a veidi t could be pronounced. Oahuai.tiks in Cobb’s Lf-oion.—The follow ing casualties occurred in Cobb’s Legion Georgia Cavalry in the recent light at Ream’s Station, Va.: Killed, Norman J. Smith, Cos. G; George White, Cos. A—Wounded, Ileese, Cos. I,’ severely; Josi ah Miller, Cos .{I, slightly; Sergt. Davis, Cos. G, log amputated; Sharp, Cos. F, leg amputated. Decatur Cos. G a. — A correspondent of the Ma con Telegraph writing from Decatur Cos. Ga, [states that the deserters which infested'that section some time since—committing depreda tions upon private property, have all been cleaned out. 'The crops in Decatur Cos. arc very fine. Cora is selling at five dollars per bushel. Gen. Winder Removed.—The Richmond En quirer slates that Gen. J. 11. Winder has been removed from the command of the post at An dcrsouville, Ga. Mail. Faculties. —We notice that the Charleston and Savannah papers bring to ns daily the same news that the Richmond j .tpers bring in the same mail. By the mail that bring.; 11 ; the Mobile papers, we get their nows in the Montgomery and Columbus papers.— This has become so inconvenient and dist ress ing a fault, (hat we are forced to complain.— Macon Intelligencer. This is one matter the Postmaster General should look into and remedy. The public are getting uneasy over our one horse mail facili ties. There is good reason for them finding fault. They have permitted wrongs to pass by unheeded too long. The Postmaster Gene ral should do something to get his rickety concern regulated once more. It is high time avo had commenced taking rapid strides to wards u reform. Patriotic. —When the local troops were or dered away from here on Saturday, several of them who are dependent upon their daily labors for their support, wore much troubled on account of not leaving their families pro vided for, and not having the wherewithal to give them to obtain supplies during their ab sence. A large number of one ol the companies are operatives in tho Augusta Factory. The noble hearted President of that company, W. E. Jackson, Esq., uponjlearning the condition of affairs at once iinforeed those who worked jin that establishment that their families should have all they wanted during their absence. This is true patriotism. It gives us pleasure to record facts of this kind. It proves that there are some men stiil left who are not wholly wrapped up in moneymaking schemes, and whose course is still guided and controlled by a lev" of country. Salk Day.—Tuesday being monthly sale day, there was a large crowd gathered about the Lower Market of eager buyers ami selleis. The following are the transactions : By 0 V.

Tobacco Rations.— When Mr. of Texas, introduced into the Confederate Cou gress the bill, which became a law, pi., riding for the issuing of tobacco rations to the sold iers, he did what his intimate knowledge of the wants of our troops taught him would be most grateful to them. If the law were carried out in the spirit in which it was passed, it would conduce in :m incalculable degree to the 'com fort and cheerfulness of our soldiers; but, as it is executed it is worse than a nullity; it is a source ot great expense to the country and a downright insult to the troops. It affords to. corrupt speculators and dishonest officials an i ppoftimuy ot toistiug upon Government large quantities of ratta tobacco. We have called attention to this subject more than once before: we are induced to mention it again by a letter ' from an intelligent young soldi, r iii ohr army In the Virginia Valley.

A correspondent of the Mobile Advertiser ,-es the annexed account of Gen. Forrest’s at , tai k cn Memphis: Forres’ s demonst.ation or rather attack on I y-.rr.- accoic; 11.1. ed the very purpose for ! which it was intended. The enemy va* an-, j uconced as marching trora Lagrange to Holly Springs, Abbeville and Oxford. They came in overwhelming' numbers —not less than twenty thousand. With the small number of troops Gen. Forrest had at his command, he knew he could make no formidable residence or do but little in checking their onward movement. It was evident that the enemy intended to reach Mobile and to plunder and devastate the ric-h --e.-t portions of the State as they passed through. It was evident that something must be done, or the State would he desolated. Gen. Forrest conceived the idea of attacking Memphis, as the only means by which the State could be save’l, fiom tho destroying tread of the invader. Consequently he left Okalona with the deter mination oi moving at once upon Memphis, hut while on the march in the direction of Holly Springs and Lagrange, he learned the enemy ware in Oxford. He immediately turned his command in that direction, but reached Ox ford just as the enemy evacuated the town. Gen. Forrest remained at Oxford Eeveral day- skirmishing with the enemy, waiting for an appropriate time to give them the dodge. The rain poured in torrents, and the roads w.-re in wretched condition. On the evening of tne lfcth of August, ha started for Memphis. The rain still poured in a drowning flood, the roads were exceedingly heavy, but he rapidly pushed on until he reached dear Creek, which was found swollen and out of it banks—swim ming, unfordahle. A halt and a camp were expected, but the General was not to be di verted from his purpose by such small imped ment-. After a short pause, he turned sudden ly to the left, for the purpose of heading the ,-tream that was swimming before him. Wan dering along the by-paths and orer the hills, he succeeded in flanking Clear Creek and in pushing on. He leached Panola about 8 o’clock aviog traveled during.the night about forty miles, over the worst of roads. 4 P on ' toon had been previously thrown over the rfal labatchie at Panola, and the column after a rest, hurried on. No obstacle was encountered until we reach ed Senatobia. Here the stream llickahalawas found swimming- There were no facilities for bridging it, but the fruitful brain of Gen. For rest soon designed a plan for crossing, and in two hours after reaching this creek, his com mand was found ascending the opposite bank over a splendid bridge. Onward the raiders rushed until they reached the Cold Water. IJds .stream was full to overflowing, and the prospect ol crossing was indeed gloomy, hut Gen. Forrest went to work with his own strong arms and unconquerable will, and in a couple of hours another bridge was built and the com mand safely landed on the opposite hank. Hernando was reached about dark, which brought us to within twenty-two miles of Mem " phis. After marching about twelve miles, the command was halted for the purpose of resting and disposing of the troops, to make the as sult. 'The exact position of the enemy’s en campments was ascertained and the troops pushed on. Silence and caution were enjoined upon every soldier. NoneonnaU Creek, six miles from town, was crossed over, and tiie ex eitement became intense. Slowly and steal thily the advancing column moved on. Presently Capt. Forrest hove in sight of the enemy’s pickets. They ordered a halt and ask ed, who comes there ? Capt. Forrest replied the 2nd lowa and 12(h Missouri. Advance one at a lime, was the reply. Capt. Forrest rushed upon them dispersing the squad. The crack of his pistol was the signal for the charge. Gen. Forrest turned to Gas®, his bugler, and ordered him to sound the charge The loud, deep roaring of the horses’ feet, the shouts of the riders, and the continual blasts from tho bugles, now filled the air with a most unearth ly and terrific sound. ’ On tile infuriated Con federates rushed, until they reached the Yan kee camps. Here the scene beggars descrip tion. Men were aroused from iheir slumbers only to be killed. Friend and foe wero mixed up m wild confusion. Some of the Yankees were naked, some in their night clothes. The Confederates still kept up their yelling, the bu gle still sounded the charge, and the blazing lire and musketry, and the screams of the af frighted or dying Yankees added still greater terror to (lie awful scene. The panic-stricked enemy rushed in wild dismay to the fields, tho woods, and the neighboring houses. Meantime Gen. Forrest was bard at work. After passing tbe State College, he discovered, dark as it was, that the enemy so recently dis persed in their tents were organizing, concen trating and forming near tho college into which many had fled for protection, lie immediate ly halted his command. Day-was now dawn ing. and for six horns the fight raged with una bated fury. Gen. Forrest had not more than seven hundred present, hut he repulsed every charge and drove the enemy from his position. He was everywhere found in the thickest of the fight, leading forward his troops. At the head of his escort he charged the enemy’s cav alry consisting of several hundred and routed them. Tbe enemy seemed anxious to regain the ground occupied hy their tents, and which we held, but every effort was repulsed with great slaughter. The enemy had taken refuge in the State College as a fort, and (tom this position they were doing us seme damage, hut Major J. P. Strange, opened one piece of artillery upon this building and the Yankees left. If. was evi dent the enemy had some seven or eight thous and troops confronting us. Wishing to bring out the prisoners captured and seeing (ho utter folly of continuing a fight where thfe discrepan cy in numbers was so great, Gen. Forrest de termined to retire. This he did about elev en o’clock, bringing off two hundred and thir ty-eight prisoners, about one hundred horses, and killing and wounding about two hundred more. Our loss iti killed and wounded will not exceed thirty. Astir reaching Nooconlah Gen. Forrest sent a flag of truce into Memphis proposing to ex change the Vi’isoners he h-idjiaken, but GetiejM Washbuvue refused, declaring it wasimposime tor General Forrest to get out, and he intended to retake his prisoners, capture Lira and his whole army. General Forrest scorned his threat; told the Yankee officer he intended to return the same way he came, by Hernando and Panola 1 his honest avowal was regarded by the stupid Washburne as a ruse. He felt cev tain since General Forrest had declared his determination to return by Panola, that he in tended to attack the Memphis & Charleston Railroad, and go out by Bolivar, Tenn., and consequently he sent all his troops in that di rection. General Forrest crossed the Talla hatchie unmolested. After reaching Panola on the 23d, General Forrest began to look to see it his raid would have tbe intended effect of drawing hack the large force at Abbeville, threatening to devas tate the State, and sure enough that night about twelve o'clock be received by telegraph the gratitying intelligence that enemy were falling lute a from Oxford to LaGiange. Thus did he accomplish his object, in addition to killing, wounding and eapttuing five hundred of the enemy a.iu many valuable horse's During the war General Forrest has won many brilliant victories, but this last is one of the brightest in the chaplet. It has been fruitful of more good than any one event o! tbe war. It seems to be the peculiar province of Gcu. Forrest to save la ,iu hoar of peril the State cf Mississippi. By vbippimi; Smith and Grierson last February, he drove Sherman from Meridian, and by this , cccnt ntLick upon Memphis he has forced Smith, with twenty thousand men, back from Oxford to Lagrange. The services of such a man will give fadeless immortality to his name. General Johnston. —lt any one doubts the popularity oi Gen. Johnston with the soldiers of the Army of 'ieunessee let him go to the Depot on the arrival of tire trains of wounded from the front. and talk awhile with the bleed ing veterans he will find there. “'lf we only had Oi l Joe wo would know it was al'|njbt ‘ lived is as brave a man as ever lived, but ■there’s nobody like Johnston.-' ‘’Why did they take Old Joe from ns !” “Give us John ston and we'll whip the Yankees out of their bqots." These an 1 similar remarks can he hoard on alTshies ’and evince the great popu larity of Gen. Johnston, and the unbounded enthusiasm ho creates among the troops. We trust tins officer will not be left much longer without a command, but will be placed where It's ge.at military ability, will be of service to the country and the cause.

Iverson | L. Harris 1 as written a letter to the Macon | Telegraph la which ho narrates the manner in which Wheeler’s men sete-, upd the o’"’rages committed on private property in Baldwin ' county, when they passed through that section on their way to Macon a few weeks since.- We presume if the truth was told the residents of other counties could tell as sad a tale of inju riea inflicted on them. It is time that officers should control their men, if they would pre serve their organizations from utter demoral ization. If those in command cannot do so, they are unworthy of the positions they occupy, and others should be at once put in their placets- Here is what Harris says on the sub ject : I have been desired to present to the pub lic, a statement of the “raid’’ made on my property by portion of Gen. Wheeler’s cavalry, on tte 2Glhan.l 27th inst. I comply, with the hope, that it may awaken the vigilance of 4he people, to their own protection against sup posed friends as well as ascertained enemies. On Thursday afternoon last, the- 26th inst., whilst sitting .n my piazza at my farm three miles and an half from this place, on the di rect road to Ma#on, a couple of horsemen rode up to my door and desired to purchase some old corn fora military force in charge of 800 cattle, captured from the Yankees at Acworth. I stated that I had not old com enough to bread my negroes fi r more than two weeks, and could not therefore sell any. Finding that the cattle were near by—prompted by curiosity to see them, I vent to the public road in the rear of my house about two hundred yards. I re mained conversing with an officer and the men for the space of an hour, until the various gangs of cattle had passed on, when I return ed to my house, which had been left open by nfe, I found it closed. Avery faithful old ne gro woman bad closed it, in consequence, as she said, of her seeing a soldier going through my rooms. Not suspecting anything. I did not discover that my Watch, called a Hunter's Watch, wi;h a fiat gold case, until the next morning, was missing. It had been taken from the nail over the mantle piece of my bed room, on which it hung always when I had oocasion to walk over my farm. Just at dark as I had finished my supper, my negroes came in from a corn field lying on the road, where they had been pulling fodder, and said to me, that the soldiers were in the field tearing down the corn. I went immediately to Ihe place, and found a detachment of men busi ly engaged in gathering corn. I spoke to them with great harshness and characterized their conduct as worse than Stoneman’s, and demanded to know by what authority they en tered my field, and were plundering my prop erty. 't hey replied by tiie authority of L cut. Wells of Alabama, who was in command of the. rear, and whose pickets were stationed on my land for.the night, somo two miles in the rear *I the cattle. I sought out this officer and enquired if it was true that his men were tear ing down my corn by his authority? He re plied, that it was. I demanded to know by what authority such a trespass on the rights of property was made. He said by the au thority of his superior officers. He said that in their loDg route of fifteen days, I was the only person who had made any complaint.— Fired by wliat seemed to be an intended re proach, 1 said I deeply regretted (hat il was so; for, if true, it evinced a cowardly submission on tho part of the people who acquiesced in such lawlessness of our Confederate soldiery, as demonstrated,clearly, that they were not fit to ei-joy the freedom for which the South is fighting. I made an appeal to his intelligence and sense of right, and he admitted that such procedure was wrong, but ho excused himself by alledging, that hss«).s only obeying orders and the uniform of the command. He gave me the name of •bl. Gaines of Alabama, as commanding the brigade. It so happened that the Col. had gone on with the front of the command. I could not apply personally to him for redress. I howev er wrote him by Friday’s mail to Macon, Geo. Whilst probably engaged in writing to him though it may have been at a different hour on that day, one of the soldiers of his command Went into my pasture, and stole from it, the very best mule 1 owned, branded on the fore shoulder with a very large H. Oa Saturday I addressed the Col. again, giviug him a descrip tion of the mare mule thus stolen. It may be that Coi. Gaines has not received my letters. Ample time has elapsed for me to have had a reply. .1 know nothing of Col Gaines person ally. He is spoken of as a gentleman. I am persuaded if be is tiie officer ho is represented to be, he will dilligently ferret out the thieves who stole my watch and mute. The descrip tions given by me of my property are full enough, for auy one who wishes to see that right is done. If my letters should not he heeded, 1 wil addioss Maj. Gen. Wheeler. It is due to the last named gallant officer tosSlJtliat in his General Orders of the 3rd of May. 1804, wliich I have seen for tho first time since I w rote to Col. Gaines, such conduct as was au thorized by the immediate order of Lieutenant Wells, is strictly prohibited. My com was ta ken from my field without auy application having been made to me for it, without any ne cessity assigned, without any compensation paid or offered. Gnu auy one wonder how Commis saries grow rich upon small salaries, when offi cers wearing swords, “command’’ the pillage of Confederate citizens, and make out bills against the government for forage, neither sup plied nor paid for by them. Some four or five cases of plunder &c, I have heard of within tjie limits of this county. 1 shall not under take to make any statement of tho wroßgs sustained by otheis. Iconclufle by asking, “if such is the usual course” of the mounted soldiery of the Confed eracy, permitted to straggle from the road in twos, threes," tearing down fences, stealing mules and other property, and no authority exercised over them by iheir proper officers, can those in the rear of Gen. Hood’s Army suffer more from the raids of a malignant foe than from the presence in our midst of those, wh> instead of being our protectors are the worst ot piunderers ? Do subordinate officers— tnose below the General-in Chief, respect any law, human or divine ? All ideas of private property seem to be subverted among military men of some armies and their subordinates and under strappers, as their conduct virtually asserts that the farmer is not the owner of the small corn field he has planted and tilled for the'use of bis bread, but, that it belongs to the soldiery with w hich they are connected, who have a-right to take it at their discretion with out recompense or resistance. It is palpable, I think, that if these officers had a true sense of honor and duty, and would act up to their requirements, -and enforce discipline, without which, soldiers may—will degenerate into bandits, no such occasions as I have narrated, could occur so put a stain on the reputation of a Confederate soldier. NEWS SIMMARY. A few days ago, the Yankee biockaders shel led with great fury the island of Masonbor ough, in the vicinity of Wilmington. This place is used as a summer resort by a few fam dies of the abovementioned city, and though it has been for sometime within reach of the guns of the blockading fleet, yet, as hitherto tiie Yankees did not seem dispo.cd to molest them, the families resident there hid not thought it necessary to remove to town. On a sudden, however, one of the biockaders, without any warning whatever, opened a heavy fire upon the place’ doing no farther damage, however, so far as we have heard, than frightening in a most distressing manner a few innocent non* combatants. Several of the fhrgest, missiles fell immediately about a house which was oc cupied only by two ladies, one of whom was a young mother with two small children. It be came necessary for them to flee lor their safety which they did not find until after an exhaust ing flight that ended at a distance of two miles from their*home. A shell exploded over the head 'of one of the ladies while she was run ning. a fragment striking the ground not more than five-feet from the spot which she passing at the moment. The barbarity of this pro ceeding of the enemy requires no comment. It is said that the Tallahassee, our new war steamer, has a speed of twenty-one miles an hour, the fastest, we believe, on record. Corn, which has been selling at forty to fifty dollars per bushel in Fayetteville, N. C , has fallen to fourteen, and looking downwards. The blockade runner Hope, anew and first class steamer, was run ashore, near Wilming ton. by the Yankees, last week, near Fort Cas well. It is feared she will be a total loss. She belongs to Fraser A Cos , and was making her first trip. • Every thing is dull at Wilmington owing to the quarantine regulations which keep steam ers below. Under orders from the Governor that but six physicians in Chatham county, under the age ot fifty-live years, should be exempt from mi litia duty, the Inferior Court yesteday declared the. following to tie’ exempt—Drs. Schley: Waring, King, George, Panov c-r, Fish. The de cision was made from the statements of the physicians as to the number of patients treat ed since Ist January last, the six highest be ing the ones exempted. Hon. B. I'.

Tne New York Herald complains about so much attention being shown to the Commis sioners at Niagara, several cf the Northern Gov mors having Seen in consultation with then* for days past. It further says the very atmosphere is burdened with treason, and that at the Chicago Convention sentiments will be avowed and plots disclosed which will shock the country. It bids New England prepare for a Northwestern Confederacy, and predicts that it is coming. One o£ the editors of the Missouri Republi can recently made a tour through the central portion of that State, including the counties of Randolph, Howard, Boone, Andtain.Cailowa/, Monroe, Montgomery and St. Charles. The harvest, as a general thing, is short, .owing to the excessive drought. The cultivation of cot ton and sorghum is rapidly increasing in these counties. It is also observed, as ;m effect of the present high prices, the loom and spinning wheel were heard'in almost every house. In the late Constitutional State—Yankee— Convention, of Louisville, Ky., the members disposed of over forty thousand dollars worth of whiskey, all which was paid for by the State Treasury as among the expenses of the Convention. Norths papers continue to be filled with accounts of a deep conspiracy and plot alleged to have been unearthed in Indiana. A call has been published in the New York Herald for assembling the Baltimore Conven tion to reconsider the nomination of Lincoln and Johnson, that candidates may be placed before the people who will be acceptable. An important suit, growihg out of alleged abuses practiced by the New York City Rail road, was recently referred to the Criminal Court, which promises to check to a consider able degree the impositions of this and other roads throughout the country. The question involves the right to eject passengers having tickets of previous dates. It was decided at the preliminary examination that the regula tions of a corporation, not expressly provided for in its charter, could not be considered bind ing, and that the company might be liable for •damages for any loss or inconvenience to trav elers growing out of such rules.

The blockade runner Lillian, with six hun dred and fifty bales of cotton on board, bound from Wilmington to Bermuda has been cap tured by the Yankees. Ex-Svcretary Chase, in a letter to a gentle man in this city, says of the published report ot his having invested his private funds in foreign countries, that the statement belongs to a class best described as “lies absolute.” He has never invested in ioreigu funds, ar.d says no true American will do so, when all that can be spared is required for the suppression of the rebellion at home. At the National Theatre in Cincinnati a per formance was lately given for the benefit of the First Ward—proceeds to be used in clear ing the ward from the draft. Charles Fenton Beavers, of Loudoun’s coun ty, Virginia, formerly a member of Mosby com pany, who had taken the oath of allegiance to the United States Government, and was sub sequently caught with Mosby’smen, was hung in the yard of the old Capital prison Aug. 25.

There is great dread in the North of being dragged into the army by Lincoln’s draft. All who can are decamping to Canada, and those who can’t in many instances, put an end to their existence rather than go into the service. A few tlays since Mr. E. S. Bennett, a man twenty five yearn of age, who lived in New Milford, Connecticut, arrived ih New York, for the purpose of procuring a substitute. He negotiated with several persons, who expressed a desire to go to war, but was unable to en gage either of them,to represent him in the at my. This failure to procure a substitute weighed heavily upon his mind, and Mr. Ben nett proceeded to Powers’ Hotel, Park row, and went to-a room, as he said, to change his clothes. About lour hours suDsequent he was found lying dead on the floor of the room, with a pool cf blood near his head, anti a revolver by bis side. No cause for the fatal act. other than extreme depression of spirits produced by his failure to get a substitute, could be leni ent!.

The Pacific railroad has been opened to Law rence, Kansas. . The seventy-second Pennsylvania regiment went into Lincoln’s army with fifteen hundred men; it will bo mustered out in a few weeks with one hundred and sixty men. The Philadelphia Age, whose editor was arrested some time ago, and got out of Fort Lafayette by an apologetic explanation, now boldly calls on the Democrats of Pennsylvania to form associations to resist by force any in terference of Lincoln’s minions in the freedom of their canvass and election.« The eating houses of New York have doubled their prices, and at the same time reduced the quality and quantity of their food. The Provost Marshall of Now York is pre paring for the draft on the sth of September, and being forewarned of resistance is determin ed to be forearmed. The Indianapolis Journal of August 2Ah, states that Col. R. W. Thompson, Provost Mar shal of the Seventh Congressional District, seized from a saloon-keeper in Terre Haute, who is a prominent member of the “Sons of Liberty,’’ fifty-six kegs, containing sixteen hundred pounds of powder, which bad been purchased for the use of members of that trea sonable order, and was no doubt destined for Sullivan county. It is shown by the most reliable statistics that there are four million Germans in the United States. The Fenian Spirit is the name of anew Irish paper just started in Boston. Lowell is paying bounties to volunteer sub stitutes in gold, acting upon the advice of Judge Abbott and other legal gentlemen, who assume that the choice of the legal tender in which they will pay, since the law does not specify, is with the town. The Pacific coast Telegraph from San Fran cisco is already extended into Washington Ter ritory. and will he .completed as far as 01ymj*ia.

The Yankees on Wednesday evening secured j a portion on the Macon and W estern Railroad a few miles North of East Point and followed j the Railroad with a heavy tores, crossing with- , in two miles in front ot Jonesboro where we had a small force placed in hastily constructed : rifle pits. The enemy charged these heavily and often, on Wednesday, but did hot succeed in dislodging oufftroops. Our loss very heavy, and the Yankees having assailed our lines, without succeeding in taking any of the earth works. must have suffered a tremendous loss in proportion. From a gentleman who left Jouesboro on Thursday night we have been able to learn something of Thursday's operations around Jonesboro. Our lines on that day were imme diately around Jonesboro, and breastworks wore thrown up reaching to the railroad at each end of the town on the west side In the afternoon a courier reported that the enemy was advan cing "from Morris’ Station, where they had ar rived the evening before, and were crossing the road to the east of the town. Our lines were then advanced up the railroad and temporary fail works were constructed a half mile east of the road towards McDonough. About 3 o’clock the enemy came up and commenced shelling furiously our main lines around the town, and at the same time made furious assaults in almost an endless number of lines of battle on the rail works. Our men fought them gallantly and held them back un til their ammunition was exhausted. The enemy then succeeded in breaking through our lines and cut off a portion of one brigade, the most of which was captured. The combat lasted from 3 o'clock until night. Our army fell back from the works, but at 9 o’clock at night had re-occuppied them. Our loss in kill ed and wounded was very heavy. The enemy's loss is represented as being terrific. The ground \vas literally strewn with their dead and wound ed. Our men fought like tigers, and retired when the last round of ammunition was ex hausted. ‘ It is now asserted that numoreous scouts on the Yankees were in Atlanta before our troops lelt. Up to the last accounts the citizens of Atlan ta had not been disturbed by the Yankees, na acts of violence had been committed. From the rapid movements of Sherman, it is plain that he means to push hi? success with vigor. Hardee’s command, consisting of Hardee’s corps, have sustained the brunt of battle since Wednesday morning. They have confronted ‘ke entire Yankee army, fought them inch by intih and repulsed ail assaults, and only re treated before the immense massed flank move ments of the enemy, who persistently thrust fresh columns on our position. The loss of the enemy, however, has been very large, so much so as to check materially their operations. . The reports of our losses in the recent engage ments are gross exaggerations. Our total loss in killed, wounded r.ud prisoners, will not ex ceed four thousand men, while that of the ene my is said to he not*l< ss than five to one. An officer who was in all the engagement®, reports that the Federals were ten lines of battle deep, in some places, and every time they charged our lines it was only to be slaughtered like sheep! Hardee’s corps is said to have fought with the most unflinching determination, and only retired when the enemy commenoed til ing on its flanks. In the retreat we were cam pulled to abandon seyeral pieces of artillery, not having any horses to haul them. PORKHLV 1 fE.MB. The celebrated African explorer, Dr. Living stone, has arrived in safety in London. Sir li. Murchison writes that so “far from being down cast at the failure of the efforts hitherto made to cheek the slave trade on the East Coast of Africa, my dauntless and energetic friend writes that he ‘cannot fine it in his heart to abandon his object. lie is, therefore, bent up on returning to Africa, after a stay of about four months at home, during which time ho will consult friends on the subject of those inture labors in which he purposes to employ his steamer, now left at Bombay. Os this ves sel, built at his owu expense for river and lake navigation chiefly, Dr. Livingstone writes — ‘The Lady Nyassa is a first-rate little sea boat, and she rose like a duck on jibe huge waves of the ocean.’ The projected new' expedition of Dr. Livingstone is not, he says, so much exploration as to set in tram operations by merchants and others by which the slave trade shall be eventually worked out.’ At the meet ing of the British Association, to be held at Bath on the I4th of September, he probably willqjive an account of his last bold adven tures.” Sir Robert Peel says that the farmeis of Ire land have £14,000,000 sterling in hanks, and, despite all that has lately been said and writ ten, there are abundant evidences of tho grow ing prosperity of the country. A Royal decree has been issued at Madrid appointing a committee of directors to erect a statue in honor of Christopher Columbus. Professor Neumayer, of Mumich, has decided that the world is coming to aD end in 1865, the comet running against the earth, and absorbing it as one drop of mercury absorbs another. The prospect of laying a telegraph cable be tween Europe and America is again to be ti ied, as we learn from an exchange. To avoid tho strain which was supposed to have destroyed the efficiency of the former, by being spun from two vessels going in different directions, but one ship is to be employed for that pur pose on this occcasion, the Great Eastern be ing the one chosen from her immense size, which will alone admit of the requisite quan tity of cable being stowed away. Letters from Rome state that Pius IX in tends to make a Cardinal of the new.Archbish op McCloskey. There being a larger number of Roman Catholics in this country than in England, their clergy, it is claimed, being en titled to that distinction. The late Archbish op Hughes died before obtaining from the Pope that mark of esteem with which his suc cessor will be honored. ’ - The wheat harvest of England is said to be of good quality, but rather below the average. The London Times Hints that Lord YVode house will probably be appointed the Earl of Carlisle’s successor as Lord Lieutenant of Ire land. A cumber of distinguished gentlemen in Eng land have undertaken to have executed a mar ble statue of General Stonewall Jackson, to be presented tc the State of. Virginia. At the Liverpool Assizes three men, named Cunningham, Buchanan and Campbell, were tried for a breach of the Foreign Enlistment Act, in having procured men to serve on board tlei Confederate steamer Rappahannock. The prisoners were found guilfy; but were libera ted-on their own recognizance, ill the sum of one hundred and fifty pounds sterling each. The Judge intimated that any men charged with a bioaclr of the Enlistment Act a second time would be severely dealt with. Mr. Charles Wentworth Dilke, proprietor, and for many years editor, of the Atheneum, and Mr. Robson, the celebrated London actor, are dead. Five of tlie surviving leaders of the late Pol ish revolution were executed by the Russians in Warsaw on the 4th of August. It was said that this was the lust act of the great Polish drama. The London Times taunts France with hav ing deserted Poland after encouraging her to re volt, and seeks to shelter England for her con duct towards Denmark behind the example of Napoleon’s oonduct towards the Poles. The London Times advocates the removal of all the English troops from Canada : the colo ny to defend itself against invasion from the United States, aided by a powerful British fleet. It is argued that the presence of a small land force of regular troops in Canada acts as an every day ‘'bait" to invasion, the Americans always wishing to capture a hand ful of red coats as an excuse for boasling. FROM LOUISIANA Quite a force of Confederate have concentra ted at New Iberia, La., on the Teche. All Confederate smvpathiserg have been or dered out of New Orleans. Annexed is the" provost Marshal's order in regard to them: “In accordance with orders from headquarters De partment of the Gulf, you, being a registered enemy of the United States, wiii report in per son at this office within) —Tiour3'.irom'this|dato, preparatory to leaving this parish for the so oalled Confederacy. Upon failing to do so no tice is hereby given that your estate will be confiscated and proceedings commenced against you tor criminal disobedience of orders. Difficult Surgical Operation.— On Satur day last a very extraordinary and difficult sur gical operation was performed in Macon, by Dr. A. J. Simmons, of Monroe county, and Dr. J. Dickson Smith, of Macon, in the presence of Dt Joel R. Branham. It was the extirpation of a cancerous sebirrus fumor, highly vascular, depending from the scrotum of a negro boy, the property of G’apt. J G. Gilmer —the tumor extending down nearly to the knees aEd weigh ing eight pounds. Jhe patient,,after being duly advised of the dangerous character of the operation, and still expressing h’s earnest desire for if, was put under the influence of chloroform, and the whole of the immense tumor carefully and astely extirpated, without the slightest mutila tion of tlie parts, and is now doing well. Sur geons speak of the operation as a v ery hand some achievement of professional skill, FROM THS C3AST j Letters from tho coast, lately-received repre- I t sent the condition of affairs in that section as j deplorable, if not dangerous, in the extreme, the enemy, emboldened by their successes, ! have advanced recently into the interior and. S rtndingjm resistance, now venture in their open bw to the plantations on the inlets and rivers, destroying crops, burning houses and stealing negroes. The ravages already done have been very great, but recent reports rep reseut the enemy as extendiift; their operations up the Altamaha and Satiila rivers. Unless something be done at once by the military au thorities or by the State, the enemy will un doubtedly soon jbe encouraged to obtain as foothold on the main land, from which they cannot be dislodged without a large force, and from which they can 6eud cavalry to ravage the country further in the interior. Hitherto these ravages have been prevented by cavalry regiments stationed on the coast; hut these having lately been withdrawn, the few men left can do nothing toward preventing the landing of even insignificant forces# FROM SOUTH AMERICA. There* lias been a change in the Peruvian Ministry, but. no revolution is reported. Vessels at the Chincha Islands are now oblig ed to load their owu cargoes, as the laborers and prisoners formerly employed have been sent away by the Spaniards. Peru has again refused to allow the Spanish Admiral to procure fresh provisions on the coast. It is reported that tho steamer Uncle Sam has been sold to Peru. An attempted revolution in Ecuador had been suppressed. FROM KEXTUCKY. Twenty-odd Kentuckians, from Fleming coun ty, passed through Bristol, Virginia, a few days ago, to join our forces. They repor great ex citement in their State on account of the ap proaching draft, and say that hundreds more may be expected out in a few days. It, is stated, further,'that many of the merchants iu-Kentukcy bordering on our lines, are packing up their goods and refusing to sell them for greenbacks; that a hundred dollars in Confederate money will buy more there thau three hundred will nere. FROM FLORIDA. It is reported that the Yankees have made a raid on Milton, Fla. This place is the capi tal of Santa Rosa county., and is on the Black water river, neat- its entrance into Pensacola Bay, and about twenty miles north-east of fcke town of Pensacola. The Northern Methodist Bishops advise tho attempt to form Methodist Societies in the Con federate States wherever possible, in connection with that church. They add : Yet, it is our solemn judgment that none should be admitted to her fellowship who are either slaveholders or are tainted with treason. We suggest such a change in the discipline as will permit the recognition of such members and ministers as it may be proper to receive into tiie church. NO CURE!
