General Butler's lines, but were easily driven back. During Wednesday and Thursday a brisk fire of artillery and musketry was kept up on the lines south and southeast of the town, but it amounted to nothing more than picket practice. From Georgia. We have nothing from Georgia in addition to the reports stated yesterday morning. We have no doubt that Sherman, with an army of at least thirty thousand men, has moved south from Atlanta, with the design of attacking Macon.--If the GeorgiGeorgia in addition to the reports stated yesterday morning. We have no doubt that Sherman, with an army of at least thirty thousand men, has moved south from Atlanta, with the design of attacking Macon.--If the Georgians are true to themselves, they, not being prepared to undertake a protracted siege, must hurry past the city to open communication with some new base of supplies. The country cannot support him, and it is impossible he should carry more than ten or fifteen days supplies. During the Revolution, Burgoyne, meeting with an unexpected check and delay in attempting a movement very similar to Sherman's, lost himself and his army — a consummation which, more than any other one thing, led to the rec
take Lee's position in the rear at that point. It says: By no means least probable is the surmise that General Sherman designs marching eastwardly through Georgia and South Carolina. This strikes us as being best supported by all the known circumstances of the situation. It is said that when Sherman heard that Hood had crwell address: "Hood has crossed the Tennessee. Thomas will take care of him and Nashville, while Schofield will not let him into Chattanooga or Knoxville. Georgia and South Carolina are at my mercy and I shall strike. Do not be anxious about me. I am all right." It will be observed that Georgia and South Carolina are Georgia and South Carolina are the fields which he regarded as at his mercy, and at which he intended to strike. This route through those States is fertile, and has never been ravaged by the presence of strong armies. A portion of it lies through districts thickly populated with slaves, the blacks far exceeding the whites in numbers, even when the latter were
iumph. In this connection, we are glad to see that that gallant soldier and true patriot, General Howell Cobb, is in the field, and at the head, we should judge, of quite a considerable force. Gustavus Smith, too, is in the service of the State of Georgia, and we hope the means will be afforded him to show himself that great officer which he has everywhere heretofore had the credit of being. With such men at the head of such a force as we are informed Georgia can still furnish, it will be a Georgia can still furnish, it will be a very difficult job to march to Savannah, we should think. It cannot, at least, be done with shouldered arms the whole march. We know not whether this march of Sherman's was designedly so timed. But we think nothing is more certain than that Grant designs to make a grand attack, all along our lines, at a very early day, both naval and military. That he will be repulsed on both elements whenever he may try it we confidently believe, for we place the most implicit confidence in our brave t
