The Daily Dispatch: January 31, 1865., [Electronic resource], General Sherman and Savannah. (search)
General Sherman and Savannah. Accounts of refugees from Savannah, heretofore published in this paper, concur in stating that General Sherman has publicly declared that he may not be able to restrain his troops when he invades South Carolina, aGeneral Sherman has publicly declared that he may not be able to restrain his troops when he invades South Carolina, and he does not know that he shall attempt to. Every-one knows what the rank and file of invading armies are most composed of. They are, in general, the refuse of society, the scum of the nations, outcasts, outlaws and Pariahs of the earth. Ever of old and young from one end of South Carolina to the other. That is what it means; nothing more, nothing less. General Sherman need not say that he cannot restrain his troops.--If he cannot, he is unfit for his position. Any general, who chooses, has at his disposal ample means of enforcing discipline and good behavior. When Sherman intimates his doubts whether he shall attempt to restrain his soldiers, he gives us the only reason why he cannot. It remains to be seen whether our o

ssamer; and without taking a single vessel from our blockade to sink every ship in the British navy, as if they were but cockleshell. Yet we will have little or no trouble to put Englishmen on their better behavior. Whatever does not seriously damage us, we let pass with a scornful word or two; whatever does seriously damage us, we quietly reserve for further settlement." These little straws indicate the direction of the tide. The army, the navy and the press of the United States are all clamorous for a set-to with honest John. Sherman threatens Hyde Park; Porter and the Kearsarge are eager to sink British ships; the Tribune will brush away Canada like gossamer. In the meantime, Mr. Bull stands hat in hand, bows politely at every fresh tweak of his nose, and protests that he had no intention of giving offence. It makes us melancholy to behold our venerable grandson thus humiliated. We propose that the Confederacy offer its mediation between England and the United States.

y afternoon by special train from Parkersburg. General Sheridan is a small, thick-set man, apparently about thirty two or thirty-three years of age, and wears a light moustache and goatee." Mr. Deshler, Treasurer of the Sherman Testimonial Fund, in a note to the Ohio State Journal, says the first contribution (after General Grant's) was made by a widow lady, who, as she presented her twenty-five dollars, remarked that, "as a friend and neighbor, she was present at the birth of William Tecumseh Sherman, and put upon him his first clothes." A young girl, named Deacon, belonging to Newcastle, New Hampshire, was making her bridal dress one evening last week, when a lighted kerosene lamp beside her was overturned upon her clothes, burning her so fearfully that she died on Thursday. Charles Summer declined the invitation of the Massachusetts Legislature to deliver a eulogy on the life and character of the late Edward Everett. Ladies with Southern sympathies, in Washingto

the capture of Fort Fisher, when discovering that some important change, he knew not then what, had occurred in the military situation, her commander (Captain Maffit) put to sea, and made good his escape. He touched the South Carolina coast and put ashore a messenger with dispatches, who has reached this city.--The news, if any, brought by this messenger has not been made public. From South Carolina. Information received from South Carolina yesterday morning is to the effect that Sherman's infantry, with their wagon trains, are camped near Ennis's Cross-roads, on the road leading towards Grahamsville, and on the road running towards Sister's ferry. A reconnoitering force was reported within four miles of Robertsville, which is fifty miles north of Savannah and five miles east of the Savannah river. A small force of Yankees landed on Little Brittain island, near Legares, Saturday night, but were driven off. Official reports. General Hardee telegraphs that the en
