February (search for this): article 1
The War news. Yesterday passed without an event of moment on the military lines before Richmond and Petersburg. The deep mud makes military operations, for the present, impossible; and the indications are, that the wet weather is not, by any means, over. We have had the dryest summer and fall known for many years, and we have a right to expect a wet winter; such a winter, indeed, as that of 1862-'63, when it rained and snowed almost incessantly from November to February. Deserters and Yankee prisoners report that great activity prevailed in Grant's camps previously to the rain storm, and that considerable bodies of reinforcements had arrived. Yankee newspapers say they were about that time preparing not to make an attack, but to resist one from us, and give it as their opinion that Lee is determined to make an early effort to raise the siege of Petersburg. The Yankee correspondents describe General Pickett's capture, on last Thursday night, of Butler's Bermuda picket

Madison (search for this): article 1
mburg; becomes thence the South Carolina railroad, and terminates in Charleston. The Macon railroad runs from Atlanta due south to Barneville; thence at right angles to its former course in an easterly direction to Macon. Thence to Savannah, pursuing a nearly southeastern course, runs the Central railroad. At Gordon, on the Central railroad, about fifteen miles east of Macon, a branch railroad runs through Milledgeville to a place called Eatendon. This place is about fifteen miles from Madison, on the Georgia railroad. It is said that a portion of Sherman's army went out as far as Madison, on the Georgia railroad, and leaving it, struck across to Eatendon, the immediate object being Milledgeville, the capital of the State. It is believed that Sherman himself pursued the Macon railroad until he came to Griffin, several miles above Barneville, and thence struck across to Gordon, avoiding Macon altogether, and by this movement placing his whole force in the rear of it.

Wheeler (search for this): article 1
. He is in the very heart and centre of the State, his infantry columns advancing on Milledgeville.--While this is the direction of his main column, one body of his cavalry has advanced to within a short distance of Augusta, and the other has struck the Georgia Central road, leading from Macon to Savannah at two points — within a few miles of Macon, and at Gordon, the junction of the Georgia Central and Gordon and Milledgeville branch railroads. On Sunday, a body of our cavalry, under Wheeler, attacked his cavalry at Gordon, but with what result we have not been able to ascertain. Sherman is everywhere laying waste the country with fire and sword, showing clearly that it is his determination to take no step backward. His force, cavalry included, is not believed to exceed thirty thousand men; and it seems certain that, if vigorous measures are taken by our generals, he must be checked and destroyed. It is impossible he should be able to support his army on the countr

rs say they were about that time preparing not to make an attack, but to resist one from us, and give it as their opinion that Lee is determined to make an early effort to raise the siege of Petersburg. The Yankee correspondents describe General Pickett's capture, on last Thursday night, of Butler's Bermuda picket lines as a failure. Our readers have already been informed of the facts of the affair. It is only necessary to add that General Pickett still holds the position taken on that ocGeneral Pickett still holds the position taken on that occasion. From Petersburg. There has been nothing of importance done at Petersburg since the forty-two deserting beeves came into our lines on Saturday. From Georgia. We have no official information from Georgia. From such intelligence as reaches us through what we deem trustworthy sources, we conclude that Sherman's main army is operating in the country embraced between the railroads running from Atlanta to Augusta, from Atlanta to Macon, and the Georgia Central railroad.
