From Savannah.—We learn that Gen. Sher
man is pursuing a very conciliatory policy to
wards the people in Savannah, and has issued
a proclamation permitting planters to bring in
their produce a- and. holds out induce
ments for them to do no. This looks as if he
felt perfectly secure, and ifltant to make all
the friends ho could.
Gen. Slocum marched in on Wednesday
morning at the head of about three hundred
men and posted guards around to protect the
property.
No outrages had been committed.
It is thought that Gen. Sherman will not
permit his .army to go into the city.
It is said that Sherman intends to request all
resident* to take the oath of allegiance. Those
who do so, will ho allowed to remain, and their
property will be respected. Thote who refuse
to do so will bo compelled to leave, and their
property will he confiscated.
It was thought by some lb%t the rice and
cotton stored in the city would be takeu pos
session in the name of tin: United Slates gov
ernment, and receipts given therefor.
It is said that the city will be garrisoned with
negro troops under command of Gen. l’osler-
Nothirig definite is known on this bead.
Some Hags of trace have bs-en received from
subordinate Confederate officers no more
wilfbo received hereafter.
Gen. Sherman has announced that if his
boats running on the river are ialerferred with
—every citizen will la. forced at once to leave
the city.
Gen. Sherman’s Headquarters is at the resi -
dence of Mr. (.'has. Green ; Gen. Slocum at*
John E. Wards ; Gen. Howards at Mr. Muly
neu.r,and Gin. Wards at Mr. Welters.
The Charleston Mercury of Thursday speaks
thus of matters at Savannah :
Sherman is evidently driving to conciliate
the people of Savannah. A. all buildings,
whether public or piivate, where there law
been any apprehension of trouble, lie has sta
tioned a guard, and in other respt els he semis
doing his best >o reconcile the community to
their yoke. He does not, however, express
any such disposition towards tin.-South ( 'aio

Tea cm Movement in thh North Carolina
Li:i,:.,latcre —The annexed resolutions look
ing to waids a settlement of our existing rFfli
cultics wore introduced into the North Caro
lina Legislature and referred to a joint com
mittee:
IF solved. That five commissioners be elected
by this General Assembly, to act with eom
. taigs'ouers from the other States of the Con
federacy, us a medium for negotiating a peace
vv'th the Uni’ed States.
Resolved, That each of the other States of
the Confederacy he respectfully requested to
create a similar commission, with as little de
-1 ly us practicable, and to co-operate with North
Carolina in requesting of President Davis, in
the name ot these sovereign StaVs, that he
tender to the United States a conference for
negotiating a peace through the medium of
these commissioners.
Resolved, That the Governor make known
to each of the other States of the Confeder
acy this action of the General Assembly of
Nos'll Carolina, and endeavor to secure their
co-operation, and for this purpose he is author
ized to appoint three comm ssionera to visit
each of the htates.
Resolved. That whenever any five of the
States shall have responded by the appoint
ment of commissioners, iheGoverner comma
-ffcatu the proceeding ofiicialiy, to President
Davis, and request his prompt action upon the
proposition.
The following is the majority report on the
above resolutions:
The'majority of the “Joint Select Commit
tee of the two Houses,’’ to which were refer
red Senate Resolutions No 4 entitled “Resolu
tions to initiate negotiations for an honora
ble peace,” report the same back to the Sen
ate without amendment, and recommend that
they pass.
The majority of the Committee -believe, that
while every effort is being made to inctcaue
and strengthen the army by the most severe
drain upon the people, of mon aud means,
these extreme rtquiiernenta shotl'd be accom
panied by some manifestation of au effort and
desire to seine an honorable peace by all other
legitimate measures.
Commissioners heretofore tendered have
been n-fus- and bv the United States upon the
pretext, that their reception would iihply a
recognition of the Confederate Government, as
preliminary, and that in case of a failure to
agree upon a treaty, such recognition would
neveiibeles.-, stand. These resolutions seek to
remove this objection, by appointing Commis
sioner;) on the part of the States, whose civil
existence and authority have never been de
nied: but at the sum) time, to make their ten
d r and all powers dependent on the action
and adoption of ;he President. It is not pro
posed that these-. Commissioners active any
powers front the States, but only that'they be
tendered by the President, for a Peace Confer
ence- he givimr to them (fitch powers and in
structions as he may deem necessary and
proper.

Affairs at Stone Mountain — lncidents —A heroic
Band—General Items.
Stone Mountain. Dec. 2b.
Although the Yankees have made repealed
1 raids around this piace, but little damage has
j been done it. The depot was fired by cur own
troops. The Yankees burned Judge Dean s
store, which hail a fdw bales of cotton in it.
Some mischievous persons burned the cala
boose. A few weeks ago, Manning’s shoe shop
w»s burned down, the result of-accident.
While Atlanta was occupied by the Yankees,
Stone Mountain bore the appearance of being
the model of Goldsmith’s deserted village. No
sound of the iron horse bounding along on its
narrow track disturbed its tranquility. lif
thoroughfares* were not thronged with men,
women and children, trafficking or tolling.
The genial face of Jim Goldsmith wag not seen
at the depot, cr the familiar countenance of
Judge Dean at the post office. The mails
“ played out.” aud the Ladies reigned “ sole
monarch.” The news was spread abroad bv’
Madame Gossip, with all her emendations.
The stores were not filled with their accustomed
stock of calico and crockery, medicine and mo
lasses, hats and horse collars, thread’and tur
pentine, tobacco and tacks, assafuetida and al
manarn, all were empty. The churches were
closed.
'i he Yankees inflicted serious losses upon the
venerable pastor of tire Baptist Church. Rev.
Fielding Maddox. H« is well known tor his
fervent piety and unbending infegrby. Few
men meet the description of the village pastor
by Goldsmith better than he.
Tt e Yankees burned a large pile of tanbark,
worth about SIO,OOO, and some, wood, lying
below the Mountain, on the Georgia Road, be
longing to Mr. It. T. Henderson, formerly of
Atlanta, but now of your city.
During their several exoeditions around this
town, the Yankees own to a loss of 800 men.
They were “ spirited ,away’’ by a baud of par
tisan rangers, aud some of the Texan rangers.
The partisan rangers are bold and dashing
youths who fear not to face friend or foe.
From behind logs and trees thev poured a
galling and deadly fire upon the invader. On
oue occasion, while seven Yankee regiments
were foraging in Swift's field, seven of this
gallant baud opened upon them from the woods,
causing the whole party to retreat iri disorder
to Atlanta, leaving several dead ou the field.
They have made the enemy feel the weight of
their power. Their leader is a brave, cool and
determine 1 man, and one who will vender il
lustrious lh« name already immortalized by
the lover of Pocahontas.
The visit of the Yankees here gave rise to
several interesting incidents, some of which
we Will relate.
A colonel asked a young lady what was the
general opinion in her neighborhood concern
ing tho election. “ What election ?” she
asked. “We a-e to have non.' that I know
of.’’ “ I mean,” replied he, “ the Pi evidential
election in the United states. Which do they
prefer elected, Lincoln or McClellan ?’’ “Lin
coln. ly ail means,” she responded. “His
emancipation proclamation strengthened us,
and I think his re-election would still farther
add to our stlength.’’ The Colonel, hating
the promise of promotion, was for Lincoln. He
went away displeased.
Miss Emmeline Brief well, a blushing damsel
of sixteen summers, tormented tho eer-uiean
clads severely. Mho told one of them that she
disliked blue so much that she would dye her
eves some other color, if she could. While
visiting a ftiend, a party of' Yankees enteied
the house.- Jl- r friend, pointing fout-one of
them, whispered to her that he had taken her
last pound of butter a few days before, and
refused to even* let Tier have a spoonful for
her children. Going up to him, she said with,
withering scorn, “And you are the man that
stole the butter.” While lie staid there it rang
iu his ears until lie could Dot hold up his head.
On another occasion a renegade by the name
of Payne, who stated tii.it his father was a
Methodist divine of this Stale, forced ids pre
sence upon some ladies, Miss I! among them
He answered to the query, where do you hail ■
from? “ Siubtown.” Miss B. told him that
she judged from his appearance that lie came
from some such place He began to oiler rea
sons tor iiis conduct, when Miss B interrupted
him with “ But give us a reason for downright
stealing.” This pained him so much that ho
took his hat and left.
Several parties in this neighborhood went
over to the Yankees A Mr. Fernando Holmes,
two Gosses, a p eacher by the name of Sims, p.
Mr. Kelly and several others.
W. Reagan, tho Enrolling officer of DeKalb
county, was shot near Liihonia by v Kicking
Kelly,” who »l'ter wards went over to the Yan
kees. Reagan died the next day.
Julian Julian, K.-q , wa« shot and instantly,
kiiied by one Brown who lived in this village.
The Browns were notorious characters, and
served as Yankee p'raps. Mr. Juhan wont with
another gentleman to fit!vise them to leave
t.cnvn when he was shot.
Much to the regie l - of tho community, the
Yankees carried off Mr. Carr, the gentlemanly
hotel k. eper at this place, under the feigned
and false charge of being a bushwhacker. Ho
was sent to Chattanooga, and his fate is un
known
Mr. Simeon Smith, B. F. Veal and Shepherd
sustained great losses at the hands of the en
emy.
During tho last movement of the Yankees
down the Georgia Road they destroyed no
property here. They arrested Mr. Mike Wil
lingham. but turned him loose. Ho is quiet
aud unobtrusive in his munneis, hence his
arrest created surprise.
The community here ain under lasting obli
gations to Mrs. Rankin, who has presided over
the postal department, for her courtesy aud
attention. ' Ctm

Fisher. Between it and 1 o ch.ck the ene

np in line of hatue in front of the fort—the
iron clads iD front. The lirjng commenced at
twenty niitin: es to 1 o’clock. Enemy firing
rapidly aud at Jmg range. Our troops at Fort
Fisher are commanded by Col. Lamb, a gallant
officer who will do h uuty, and ooe in whom
hi- men have the utraost confidence. General
Whiling an-! staff have repaired to the scene
of action. Our people arc in no way excited,
in fact to see the streets, one v.-ould not sup
nose that our city, was being attacked.
LATCH
The firing upon Fort Fisher duiing the after
noon, for the space of one hour was terrific,
being almost equal to musketry in battle, in
the rapidity of discharges. Ihe latest accounts
we have .represent the barracks to have been
burned. Fort Fisher was not replying to the
fire of the enemy, owing to their laying off so
far.’ The fleet is said to stretch along the beach
for miles hugging the shore, as if contemplat
ing a landing.
At the commencement of the engagement,
the gunboats were struck several times, when
they drew off to a more safe distance; Fort
Fisher has therefore reserved her tire until em
boldened by her siieuce they will venture
within effective range of her guns. Our au
thorities seem to be confident that the work is
capable of withstanding the bombardment.
• STILL LATER.
Since the above wes written the fo’lowing
official report was received at headquarters
from Col. Lamb, commanding at Fort Fisher :
• Fort Fisueu, (i o’clock, P. M.
The enemy's fleet, consisting cf over fifty
vessels, including two Monitors, several ar
mored vessels, and a large proportion of hea
vily armed frigates and sloops of war, com
menced a furious bombardment of Fort Fisher,
at twenty- minutes to one o’clock, which they
kept up until five and a half P. M., when they
withdrew No part of the w n rk was greatly
injured. Casualties-23 wounded, 1 mortally, 3
severely, 1!) slightly'.
The officers, soldiers and seamen, all did
their whole duly. As the enemy attempted no

LANDiNIi OF THE LX EM V —CAI'TCRE OF CATTERY
' ANDERSON.
Sunday, December 25.—Between three and
four o’clock in the afternoon, a regiment of the
enemy succeeded in landing wear Battery An
derson, b small two gun work . situated about
3J miles North of 'Wrt Fisher, aud about a
mfr and a half from Sugar Loaf on the Cape
Fear river. General Kirkland is stationed at
the latter place, and, we learn, is expected to
attack tin: enemy. Bit Wry Anderson was gar
risoned by till or a portion of Captain Souther
land’s company of 10i.li North Carolina Trooos,
who wci« captured by tho enemy. The work
itself is of no importance, but the position
gained may eventually give ns trouble if not
recovered by us. Should they be able to hold
this point they may eventually land sufficient
fore-: to command the neck of 1 nil lying be
tween the Cape Fear and the beach, in the
rear of Fort Fisher. Steps, have doubtless
been taken, ere this to drive the enemy off.
LATER. *
Wo have been unable to gain anything of
an official character up to this . hour, (ftj P.
M.,) except that the enemy have landed three
brigades at’ Buttery Anderson, and were still
landing at last accounts.*
Gen. Kirkland has been engaged with them
duiing the evening and night. 'The darkness
of the night will he favorable to their mover
• meats, and we expect that by morning they
will have lauded a largo force at that point.
Monday, December hi.—ljpry little firing
can be heard to day, and but little news is
obtainable from Inflow. We understood semi
officially that an attack was made upon Fort
Fisher by the enemy’s laud forte, which was
repulsed with heavy loss to the enemy. In
confirmation of this General Kirkland tele
graphs that during last, bight he heard heavy
musketry filing in the direction of Fort Fisher,
and soon afterwards great cheering on the part
of tho garrison Everything has oeen hurried
to the front, and it is expected that there will
be hot woik there today. Governor Yanco
and General Bragg remain at the point The
gallant Whiting, commands’at Fort Fisher.
We expect further news during the afternoon,
as comuudealion'wUh Fish- r has beau re-estab
lished.

A Yankee Lieutenant, captured by our for
ces, says that ho belongs to the 142d New

Siigap "Loaf on yisierciay. It is said to be
composed of three brigades of lour regiments
each, it is a portion of Butler’s corps, said
-to be the twenty fourth (we presume one of
their consolidated corps.) Butler lias not yet
