Also, a billto exempt from taxation loans made onhypothecation of non-taxable bonds.Referred to theCommittee on Finance.Mr. Caperton offered a resolutionwhich was agreed to, that theCommitteeon Military Affairs inquire into the expe-diencyof providing, by law, for supply-ing Confederatecitizens held as prisonersby the Government of the United Stateswith the same amount of supplies as isfurnished to prisoners in the militaryservice of the Confederate States.Mr. Hunter, of Virginia, presentedthe petition of the corporation of Frede-ricksburg asking to be relieved from the

The quiet of the militarylines in frontjof Petersburg and Richmond was un-I broken yesterday even by a solitary| gun. If there was any firing at DutchI gap, the cannon were not heard in thisjcity. The weather was clear and dry-

| ing; should it continue for three or four| days, the groundwill be in theconditionfor which alone Grant is waiting to re-sume active operations. But the seasonwhen any considerable length of goodweathercan be expected has passed.?The periodof snows and winterrains isat hand.

The report that therewas any fightingon the Petersburg lines on Thursdaywas incorrect. The Petersburg Expressof yesterday says that that day passedwithout incident of importance. ?

FROM GEORGIA.Seeing that Sherman is now cut offfrom all communication with his owncountry, and'that the military authori-ties ofhis nation can only hear from himthrough the mediumof the Southern"press, did we publish the intelligenceconcerning him and his movements thatcaches us, we should be guiltyof theI.nown as " giving information to

ny," and would, in no respect,n motive, differ from the manuld collect information here, andiug it to priting, send it directal Grant's headquarters ; there-lave concluded, until such timenre shall certainly be no longery, to ignore the Georgia cam-?>o far as we are concerned, theshall be thrown upon their ownIto obtain intelligence fromventurous general.

LATER FROM THE NORTH.New York paper, of the 23d i_stant

are received. The news in thenf is oflittle inter©-. ISherman's raid?thr Yankee intklli-

oince from him.The New York Herald gives a sum-

mary of all the Yankees know aboutSherman's movements as follows:

Advices werereceived in Washingtonyesterday from Oeneral Sherman's armywhich show that ho was, on Saturdaylast, within thirty miles of Macon, Geor-twhich place is supposed to be nowis possession. He had met with buts opposition, and his campaign wasressing in tho most successful man-f«T Intelligencefrom Richmond showsat therebels have already learned suf-ficient of Sherman's operations to pro-duce great consternation in their minds.They will probablysoon be informed ofmuch more, as there is but littleforce tooppose his advance besides the hastily-raised Georgia militia, under HowellICobb, and thesewillbe but a slight hin-:e in the path of the Union vete-

e latest intelligence represents Ge-Hood, with two corps, numberingtogether aboutthirty-live thousand n»en,to be still in the vicinityof Florence, Ala-bama, on the Tennessee river. Therearereports that Dick Taylor has joinedhim ifrith an additionalforce of ten.thou-sand. His latest movements do not in-dicate an intention of early offensive ope-rations. Beauregard, with therebel Ge-neralStewart's corps, was stillat Corinth,Mississippi, when last heardof. Generallhomas, commanding the Union armydesigned to check Hood's advance, israpidly concentrating hisforces, asthoughdisposed to makean attack on therebelsin some direction. As we have alreadystated, the rebel reports of the destruc-tion of government property at Johnson-ville, on the Tennessee river, by Forrest,were immensely exaggerated. We nowlearn that there was only one buildingin tbeplace destroyed. It is still heldby a division of Union troops

The Chicago Tribune gives the fol-lowing fancy predictions:Cliaileston wilt be cut oil; and Sher-mans army of lifty-Hve thousand menwill be free to act as circumstances de-mand, and will be on the sea-coast, readyfor embarkation at a moment's notice, sothat they can be used with Grant' orSheridan, as may be most advantageous?or, afterrecruiting, they may be movedthrough Central South ajid North Caro-lina, utterly annihilating every railroadby the way, and thus making Virginiathe grave of the rebellion. !Can Sherman subsist ? Undoubtedlyhe can. There are two articles in theSouth in great abundance?corn andsweet potatoes ; and he takes with himany amount of hard tack and severalthousand cattle. His men will live better than when in camp.

Tuesday,from City Point, renew tbere-port of the evacuation of Petersburgbythe Confederates. The Yankee Govern-ment, though, has received no conli filia-tion of this story, and it is not creditedin official circles. It is supposed tohaveoiignated in the transfer of troopsfromPetersburg to tho north .side of Jamesriver to meet an apprehended attack jthere by General Grant All the Unionironclads previously lying at FortressMonrod were, on last Friday morning,sent up the river to Dutch gap,and this and othersignificantmovementslead to expectationsof stirring events inthat vicinity shortly.

kee military:The arrest of Colonel Jacobs, Lieu-tenant-Governor or Kentucky, was re-£ed a day or two ago by telegraphfnrther report, however, that he jbeen sent to Washington city underguard, proves to be untrue. GeneralBurbridje, it seems, has taken sum-mary action in the case without the for-mality of sending tho accused to Wash-ington, and has decreed his banishmentbeyond the Federal lines.

LOCAL MATTERS.

NO. 127.SHERMAN'S MARCH THROUGH

GEOh gia:The Georgia papers do not bring us

much aboutaffairs there, but what theysay shows that the people are cheerful,and that Sherman's great raid js not re-garded, by any means, as fatal to theState of Georgia. The Georgia Legisla-ture, in session agt MiliedgeviUe,on the17thpassed a resolution authorizing theGovernor to call out every able-bodiedman in the State, and the State Trea-surer to remove the public funds andarchives from the capital. The AugustaChronicle of Saturdaysays :

A gentleman who arrived on Thurs jday eveningfrom Stone mountainreportsthat the Yankee column moving downthe Georgia railroad divided at Decatur,Ihalf going down the Codington road

the other the Rockbridge road. Atie mountain they burned all the un-ipied houses, comprising some twotls of the town,and_frerelayingwastecountry as they progressed. Theyeh in hollow-equares, their trains inre. They united at Baker's mill,' Covington, and it was not knownwhether they would strike for Eatonton

or Athens.This gentleman says that theviewfromthe summit of Stone mountain of the

conflagration of Atlanta was awful be-yond eles-ription. The Gate City was"an ocean of flame" as the fiery wavesroso and fell throughout itswholeextent.Passengers on the Georgiarailroad lastnight reported that about one hundredFederalcavalry made theirappearance atSocial Circle on Thursday and burnedthe railroad platform. It is not believed

that they have come down any fartherthan tho Circle. Their infantry en-camped at or near Old Sheffield's onWednesday night, and from their move-ments it is thought they are en route forEatonton.

It is also reported that they haveburned Monticello and Hillsboro',which,if true, indicates clearly that they de-sign tapping the Central railroadat Gor-lon, or some other point.The passenger train on the Georgiaroad yesterday only came from UnionPoint.The Augusta Constitutionalist;takingl

the Georgia view of the situation andSherman's position, says :His position in Atlanta becoming peri-lous ; his ability to hold it long by forceextremely doubtful; he resolves, in amoment of desperation, upon one of theboldest and most daring movements ofthe war, that of marching his armythrough the heart of our country to apoint of security?Pensacola or Bruns-wick, most probably.

He does not anticipate retracing hissteps ; hence he proclaims tbe devasta-tion and desolationof the country overwhich he passes. IThe destruction of Atlanta, Rome andMariettahave been announced, aud liehas now taken up his line of march for Ithe coast, more with the view of savingtheremnants of his shattered army thanof capturing any fortified cities.The duty that lies before us is plain,and may be perceivedat a single glance.Let the forces which we can concentratein front of Sherman's army, in a few dayaat farthest, destroy everything (upon Jjwhich he can subsist) they cannot carryi out of ___. way; and as ho haa no other jmeans of subsistence, an army of ten Ithousandm.n can, in less than fifteen Idays, force them to surrender. If they Icannot do this, they can hold them in Jcheck until sufficient forces arrivefrom Iaccessible points, thereby rendering Ihopeless, in any event, the possibilityof IWe can see nothing'for which the Ipeople need become alarmed, but muchto hope for. A firm, unfaltering heartand determined resolution is all we wantat present, and a few weeks will, per-1haps, suffice to drive the last vandalfrom the soil of Georgia. IIt is true, many may return to theplace where their homes once stood butto find them marked alone with smoul-deringashes; yet better that,as freemen,than under the hatedrule of theinvadingThe MiliedgeviUe Recorder contains

the following cheering announcementthat is, if Sherman will keep his troopsin the town for awhile:

Some excitement has prevailed in thecity for two weekspast on account of theexistenceof smallpox amongst us. *Webelieve the cases are decreasing in num- jher, and no fears areentertained of a fur-ther spreadof the disease. I
