facts of interest have come to light. Up-
on clearing away the wreck a little, one
car marked New Jersey was found par—
tially standing, but the south end of it
was knocked into ‘smithercens.’ Jun Wall,

badly injured, but his tounge still running,

SHERDIAN.
This great and successful General is again
on the \Var-pnth, and the journalists of both
North and South have been daily, for the
past week, taxing their brains to give the
purpose or at least an outline of his new
campaign, but so iarhc keeps his own coun-
sel and nothing positive is known of his in-
tentions. It is evident that he has cut loose
from Atlanta, and wilh a large force is
marching towards the Atlantic coast. The
N. Y. Times of today, (Monday) says that
he is bound for Millcdgeville, Ga., where he
will divide his army and send one column. to
Savannah, while the other will seize and
fortify Augusta, from whence after receiv-
ing supplies up the river he will march on
Columbia. and Charleston S. C. The latest
intelligence from him is that his first column
had taken the road towards Macon and at
5 days outhad marched 70 miles, driving
everything. before him and causing great
consternation, and had so far met with no
serious opposition.
Hood by his own not in going off way to
the westward to cross into Tennessee, put
his army out of Sherman’s way and opened
to Sherman the whole of central Georgia
and South Carolina, which had as yet sufi‘eig
cd comparatively little from the war, and
had not been overrun by an hostile army.
This Section is rich in stores of all kinds and
contains the Powder Mills and workshops
ofthe confedcracy as also the slaves, stock
the, from the plantations along the coast.
Hood being so far in the rear of Sherman,
with along roundabout way to reach him,
and with Thomas with a large army in his
front watching him, cannot it is thought in-
terfere with Sherman, in this his greatest
and boldest movement of the war. Great
results are looked for from this expedition
but it will probably be some days yet crc wd
hear anything definite from it.
But we caution the people about falling
into the old habit of anticipating too much—
of expecting impossibilitics, and of allowing
their imaginations to run wild, and their dc-
sircs to get the best of their reason and good
sense. Remember that Sherman himself has
made no boasts, has published no plans, and
if he should accomplish less than you may
expect, do not hastily find fault with him.—
Again, his operations willtnkc lime for their
complete development, and you must be pa-
tient—the world was not made in a day.

for the past few years diligently at work in

should like to have our city fathers, now
while this “ spell of weather” lasts, be oblig-
ed to traverse, with their families, a few
times each day, the length of River Street,
then perhaps they would be willing to do
something for that much traveled thorough-
fare, at all even ts they could not help seeing
the necessity of either a few loads of gravel
or a mud-scow and ferry boat. So far, in
their efforts to improve our walks, this street
seems to have been entirely overlooked.

For the Curr/(r.
“Clerical Loyalty."
Knowing your reluctance to' lend your

A. Potocki, Co. G ; Rufus W iWeeks, ‘
Pomfret, 00. K. Total—,8.
.day afternoon, to congratulate him upon his
to S. B. S. 13., in your last issue.
If any one has reason to cxcluim—Savc
Inc from my friends, it is the venerable gen.
tlcmau who fills the pulpit of the first Con-
gregational church. S. B. S. in
his first communication, announced him-
self as .a volunteer; that he had under.
taken the vindication of Dr. Pluincr‘s loyalty '
without his knowledge or consent. Had it
been otherwise, perhaps it would have been
better for both of the gentlemen. At all
events had the Rev. ,Dr. been consulted, I am
quite certain he would have suggested,
the less said the better. With this convic-
tion, and disclaimiug the character of a
“ccnsor,”I I'cpeat‘,not. onlyr what I have before
said, that the article referred to was not only
uncalled for,but most unfortunate. Dr.Plumcr
is a vcnci'abl cgcntlcmau,of respectable talents
and is regarded as a spiritual preacher, but it
does not follow that. a Congregational pulpit
in Connecticut, is his appropriate spchrc. I»
know no one however who was disposed
publi cly to criticise his pulpit efforts, or
refer to his past history until he was in'
troduccd to the public through the colums
of the “Gazette.” S. B. S. B. is mistaken in
saying that Dr. P. came here a stranger. IIis
fame had proceeded him, and was familiar to
most of us; particularly, from the commence-
ment of his troubles at AllcgliauyCity, which
resulted in his removal from western Penn-
sylvania, and the publication of his “Cait ” in
the summer of 1862, which it was expected
would gain him access to pal pits inNchork
and Philadelphia. There is nothing in the pro.
vious history of the Rev.Dr. that should com-
mend him toCougregatioualists anywhere. On
more than . one occasion has be exhibited to-
ward our dcnominatiou,an intollerancc utterly
incmisistentwith tlic humilityoi thegospel,and
there are those in the community, who still rc-
incmber that he wasthc advocate if not the au-
thor of a resolution in the General Assembly
that sev erect from thePrcsbytei-ianchurch four
hundred devoted pastors, and sixty thousand
communicants in western New York, and
northern Ohio, for no other fault than nu.
willingness to bow to the behcsts of slavery
I have no desire to exercise the prerog. -
tivc ofa “Bishop,” and if the form of prayer
suggested in my communication of the 8th in-
stant,is deemed too stringent for the nerves of
the Rev. S. B. S. B., I will modify so far as
to say, T/tal a mild o'cjlcclz'on upon our swing
and “wayward brethren of the South,” as (71.0
authors of this unfortunate contest and ajccblc
oaprosslon of thanks to the God of battles for
lhcfaoor granted to our arms will be most grate-
fully received. To meet the views of gcntlc-
men of doubtful loyalty we will consent to a
softening process until prayers for country
and rulers are reduced to the standard of the
most rigid conservative, only asking that the
performanccbo such that We may be able to
decide whether we are in Connecticut or
South Carolina.
S. B. S. B. asks: does not Dr. P. pray for
the President and his Cabinet? So does Jeff
Davis’ pastor, every Sabbath. Is it too much
to ask, that some distinction be made between
States that have risen up in rebellion, and
these that fight for the establishment of right-
ful authority all over the land ?—as yet I
have heard no censure of the former—no
prayer for the success of the latter.
Unfortunately for me I cannot boast Of
Nor-walk as my birth place, although a native
of the State; nor can I boast a residence of
thirty years in the town. I have been 11cm
long enough however to feel a deep interest
in the temporal and spiritual prosperity of the
church and congregation with which I am
connected, and I have yet to learn that the
introduction into our pulpit, of a gentleman
unacceptable to three-fourths of his hearers,
will promote cithcr.*
I owe an apology, Messrs. Editors, for
again intruding upon your columns, and the
notice of your readers, who will bear in mind
how the trespass originated. I have no taste
even for political controversy, much less for
that relating to church matters, and believing
with you, that a secular paper is not the
proper place for the latter, and grateful for
your indulgence, I yield the f field to these
who think otlicrwise,trnsti-ng that your road-
ers will not ascribe to the withdrawal “ a
contempt that I do not feel" for my oppo-
nent. C. S.

W“ The Maryland Union State Central
Committee waited upon the President Thurs-
reeleetion ; and expressed their deep obliga-
tion to him, because Of the rare discretion,
on his part, to which Maryland owed so
much in attaining the proud position of a
Free State. They also expressed the desire
that his'futurc'Administration might result
in the restoration ofthe Union on a basis of
universal freedom. The President replied
that he would not attempt to conceal his
gratification at the result of the recent elect-
ion. I-Ic thought that the course he had
pursued was the best, and considered the
MarvlandFrcc State Convention a victory
for the i'lght. He said,. in conclusion, that
“those who differed from and opposed us
will see that defeat was better for their own
hood than if they had been successful.”

GENERAL SIIERDIAN.
The Nashville correspondent of the Cili-
ciuuati Times, in a letter tinted the 15th,says:
One column of Sherman’s army left Atlanta
on the 0111 inst. taking the Macon road. It
will pass through Millcdgevillc, and proba-
bly take it and release the Union prisoners.
The second column left on Saturday last,
taking the direct road to Augusta, which will
be reached in fourteen days. The two col-
umns will concentralc there and move on
Charleston, Savannah or Beaufort, as may be
deemed proper. Beaufort was the original
destination.
The M noon and Auguata railroad will be
effectually destroyed as the army proceeds.
Sherman carries sixty days rations and beef
cattle. He will depend upon the country for
other subsistence.
Atlanta has been rendered untenable.—
Such buildings as could be of benefit to the
enemy have been destroyed, but no others.
Sherman will meet no enemy on his way.
The Georgia militia are few in number and
harmless. About 2,000 troops, besides mili-
tia, are at Savannah.
This correspomlcnt states that Sherman’s
army consists of four infantry corps and 10,-
000 cavalry, in all 47,000 men.
he Chicago Tribune, Nov. 16, received
here, says that Sherman has started. for Sa-
vannah with his whole army. It also has ‘1
St. Louis dispatch stating that. said army con-
sistsot the 14111, 151b, 17th and 20 corps with
15,000 cavalry and a brigade of artillery, in
all 50,000 men.

expected to reach $200,000. The Commis
sioners of the allies were to meet the Japa-

“'CAMP NEAR CEDAR CREEK, VA., l
Nov. 6th, 1864. 5'
Drum GAZETTE :—Ou the evening of the
4th, at about 7 o‘clock, the Sergeant-Major
came around to the Ordcrlics of the left wing
of the regiment to know how many men
each had to fall in case of emergency. Soon
orders came for the 5 companies to lull in
with every thin". It was not long before we
were ready to form a line, which we soon
did at the rear ofour camp. The Major took
command and marched us to headquarters to
report. He had no sooner reported than
three teams moved out towards the pike, and
we after them. When we reached the pike
the teams had stopped and we received or-
dcrs to uusling knapsacks and put them into
the wagons, which we did with a will. Af-
ter disposing of those burdensome articles of
luggage, we started towards Winchester.—
Wc soon passed through Middletown and
weuded our way towards N cwtowu, which
we reached in due season, when w: halted
for a rcst,—thc first rest we had fora distance
ofscvcn miles. Our rest did not last but 15
minutes, when we fell in and marched along
towards Winchester, which we reached be-
fore one o’clock a. m., having traveled the
distance of 15 miles in less than 4 hours, and
resting but once; that is what we call good
time, especially where guerrillas arc numer-
ous. Our Major was not long in getting us
quarters, which were in buildings without
doors or windows, but they were better than
any we had occupied for several months.—
The next morning the boyswcrc up in good
season, visiting the numerous sutlcrs’ stores,
of which the town is well supplied. Such
loads of cake, pics and choose, you never
saw before as they brought to their quarters
for breakfast, which they eat as soon as the
cooks had coffee made. After breakfast the
boys took a walk around town to observe
the fashions, but they were not long away, it
being dull sport to look upon empty walks
and no citizens but those who were blue.—
At 10 1-2 a. m., We formed line to march
back, the teams having. been loaded with
clothing. At 11 o'clock we started for the
front. When we had got witlih about three
miles of Newtown, we met a. company of
cavalry, but thinking that they were guerril-
las, we formed a. line ready to receive thorn.
They reported that Moscby and his men
were prowling around the neighborhood
seeking whom they might devour. (Io. E
were deployed as skirii‘iislim‘s, so as to be in
readiness in case the out-law might pitch on
to us, but we did not have the pleasure ot‘au
introduction to the gen!Zeman-cut-throat, and
arrived safely in Ncwlowu where we hailed
for 20 minutes, when we foil in and marched
towards camp where we arrived at 4 1-2 p. 111,
without hurting ourselves or any one else.—
As it is near election day, we are somewhat
anxious to hear of Old Abe's rc-clccliou, and
to hear of the copperheads being knocked
out of time, just as old Early was on the af—
ternoon of the 19th of October.
