We publish at full length to-day the orders of Sherman on taking possession of Savannah. They are remarkable in one respect. They are all mildness and conciliation, evincing, on the part of Lincoln, either a change of policy with regard to what he considers a conquered city, or a determination to profess a desire to conciliate, in order to justify himself in the eyes of the world for the employment of harsh measures hereafter. His policy may be even more profound than that. Having tried severity, having tried cruelty, having tried oppression everywhere else, and having found that it has nowhere succeeded, he may wish to blind the eyes of the rest of the Confederation by the appearance of lenity, in order that they may be the more easily induced to submit to his mercy. Be the design what it may — and that some design, and a very deep one, is concealed under these orders, does not admit of a doubt — Sherman seems to have changed his character as completely as the serpent cha

We publish this man's address to-day. We believe that the people of Georgia are as brave and as high-spirited as any people whatever. No troops have fought better in this war than her's, and none have shown higher and greater qualities. The names of her officers are household words in Virginia. Hardee and Gordon, and a hundred others — where are there prouder names? The heart of the people is right, and they will spurn, we are persuaded, the recommendation of the Mayor of Savannah. As for the meeting, it has been said to have consisted of seventeen men — Englishmen, Yankees, owners of cotton, and speculators generally. If it consisted of ten times as many, it would be no argument to prove a disloyal disposition in Georgia. It was the very thing that it was to be presumed the enemy wo

The cruel answer which he gave at Vicksburg when the starving inhabitants applied to him for some relief will long be remembered by them, and will form a damning record of atrocity against him and the Government that employed him in the pages of the future historian. The cruelty which he exercised at Atlanta, and the ferocity with which he desolated Georgia along a path measuring sixty miles in width, have no parallel in European history, and more closely resembles the career of Hyder Ali when he invaded the Carnatic than any other occurrence of modern times. But all this is changed. Sherman, without opposition, has come into possession of a large and rich city. There is no circumstance to irritate him. His march was unopposed, his entry triumphal, his reception flattering, and everything conspiring to put him in a high, good humor with himself and with those over whom he now extends his sceptre.

The-Wrong Paper. --The paragraph which is going the rounds in the Yankee papers, credited to the Richmond Sentinel, relative to the abolition of slavery and the formation of a treaty with England or France, appeared in the Richmond Enquirer and not the Sentinel.--Having copied it in our summary of Northern news, we correct the mistake into which our readers may have been led.

It was then discovered that the enemy had succeeded in landing a force at Anderson and Holland batteries and that their line of skirmishers were advancing on the fort. All is excitement now. Our infantry man the parapets; and now the sharp crack of the rifle can be heard instead of the heavy booming of guns.--Faison and Parker have engaged them. But the lull is of short duration — the most terrific bombardment now commences; the fleet have seen their land forces, and they open with greater vim than ever to keep our men from engaging the skirmishers. Colonel Lamb comes rushing up the parapets; he calls for his men to man the line of palisades; with a cheer for him they answer to his call. Away they went after him, and soon they are in line, ready to meet the enemy. The sharp crack of the rifle is mixed in with
