PROPHECY FIULFILLED
The accounts of General Shermau's march
through Georgia show an enormous loss to have
befallen the people of that State. This sweep
taken by an Invading army has destroyed rail
ways, carried away slaves, cattle,and provisions,
and desolated towns, bringing the heaviest bur
den of war upon the very centre of the insurgent
district.
If Mr. Alexander fl Stephens is fond of refer
ring to his own words, he might now very well
point his fellow-citizens to the remarkable ful
fillment of his prophecies made to them in the
winter oflB6ll-41, when be was still resisting
secession. There could be no stronger ease of
correct foresight and just appreciation of the re
sults of a proposed course, than is shown In the
following extract from his great speech against
secession, made that winter and often quoted:
" This step (secession) once taken, can never be
recalled; and all the baneful consequences that
musbiollow will rest on the convention tor all com
ing time. When we and our posterity shall see our
lovely South desolated by the demon of war, which
this act of yours will inevitably Invite and call forth ;
when our green fields of waving harvests shell be
trodden down by the murderous soldiery and fiery
carat war sweeping over our lend, our temples of
justice laid in ashes, all the horrors and desolations
of War upon ns, who but this convention will be
held responsible for it, and who but he that shall
give his vote for this unwise and ill-timed measure
shall be held to strict account for this suicidal act
by thb present generation, and probably cursed and
execrated by posterity in all coming time, for the
wide and desolating ruin that will Inevitably follow
this act you now propose to perpetrate?
" Paus% - i entreat you, and consider for a mo
ment what reasons you can give that will even sat
isfyyourselves in calmer momenta, what reasons
can you give to your fellow-sufferers in the calamity
that it will bring. What reasons can you give to
the nations of the earth to justify It? They will be
the calm and deliberate judges in the ease; and to
what cane, or one overt act, can you point, on
which to rest the plea of justification ? What nght
has the North walled ? What interest of the South
has been invaded ? What justice has been denied, or
what claim, founded In justice and right, has been
withheld? Can any of you to-day name any govern
mental act deliberately and purposely done by the
government at Washington, of which the South has
a right to complain? I challenge the answer.
' Pause now while you can, and contemplate
carefully and candidly these important items. Lear.
lug out of view, for the present, the countless mil
lions of dollars you must- expend in war with the
North, with tens of thousands of your eons and
brothers slain In battle, and offered up as sacrifices
upon the altar of your ambition—and for what?—
' Is It for the overthrow of the American govern
ment, established by our common ancestry, ce
mented and built up by their sweat and blood, and
founded on the broad principles of right, justice,
and humanity ? And as such, I must declare here,
as I have often done before, and which has wen
repeated by the greatest and wisest statesmen and
patriots in this and other lands, that It is the beat
and freest government, the most equal In rights, the
most just In Its decisions, the most lenient In Its
measure% and the most ins - piling in its principles
to elevate the race of man that the sun of heaven
ever shone upon. Now, for you to attempt to ov
erthrow such a government as this unassailed, is the
height of madness, folly, and wickedness."
ABOL.I7ION GS MEISSOUBJ.
• We learn by dispatches received fron St. Lou
is that the Constitutional Convention sitting in
that city fur the purpose of forming a new con
stitution for the State of Missouri, has deter
mined by a vote of sixty to four, in favor of the
absolute abolition of slavery in that State.
Out of ail the States, either as a whole or in
part, in rebellion against the national govern
ment two years ago, Maryland, West Virginia,
and Louisiana by their own voluntary act have
already cast off the institutions of the old regime,
and arrayed themselves in the ranks of the free
States. Missouri has now virtually added her
name to the list, and we may soon expect to
witness the same action on the part of the peo
ple of the States of Arkeeesa, Kentucky, Ten
nessee, and Delaware. In the first three of the
above named States the subject of a free consti
tution is widely agitated and meets with general
approbation among the loyal people. Prelimin
ary conventions have already been held and a
general State convention has been called to take
immediate measures for the abolition, of slavery.
In singular contrast with this action of the
people of many of the slave States of the old
Onion, is arrayed the determined support of
slavery by the opposition to the amendment of
the conststution of the United States, making
the abolition of slavery an act of the nation.—
Maryland, West Vlrginis, Louisiana, and Mis
souri are free by their own voice, Kentucky,
Tennessee, Arkansas, and Delaware are rapidly
tending ip that direction. The remaining
States of the South are still in rebellion, and
have no rights beyond what the government
choose to grad them. 'the secret of the oppo
sition to the amendment in Congress is not so
much from principle as an unmistakable desire
to keep the question open and to secure the po
session of all the political capital the opposition
to the measure can give.
STATE Itia9TS IN THE CONPEDgIILACV
Tjte miserable doctrine of State rights, like
the barbarous Institution of slavery, is destined
to do those who have risked the fate of the na
thm on its success, the most serious injury.
It now . - appears that the most embarrassing
trouble the " sethorities" at Richmondure forced
to contend with, is the assumption of Certain of
the Uovernors Of the rebel States, to act rode-
pendently of der Davis. This is a portion of
the grand play of treason, not anticipted by the
traitor Davis. It was all right to preach State
rights when the dissolution of the Union was to
be effected; bet about the time that leg Davis
endeavored to'carry out his ideas of despotism,
the tioctrine Otte, independence of the States
became obsolete. It was literally an illustration
of "the Italian, adage; that curses,. li ke young
ehiciipms come home to roost. Davis, when he
weaengligetlin the plot to 'destroy the Prigs
fouid his most eft:care plealn teaching the in
dependence of the States, bat that independence,
in the 'shape of a our4e, cornea hula to dzn
when he tieeka to bind the revolted States la

The reason for the extraordinary outburst of
despondency and desperation in the recent Rich
mend journals is to be found In the fact, that for
the first time during the war the army and the
people in Virgintasee themselves beleaguered in
earnest, and their most necessary supplies cut
off.
On the one hand Generals Stoneman, Bur-
bridge and Gillem have destroyed the chief
sources of lead and salt in the South, situated in
southwestern Virginia. The lead mines were
blown up and the salt wells stopped up; all the
kettles, ibrnaces and other machinery were at
the same time destroyed, together with locomo
tives, trains of care, depots of clothing, ammuni
tion and provisions.
But important as this achievement of our cav
alry la, the work of Sherman's army has become
more fatal to Lee and the rebel operations in
Virginia. The destruction of the Georgia "Gulf
Road" was a staggering blow to Leo and Davis
in Richmond. A private note to a gentleman
in New-York, from a friend in Savannah, relates,
among other matter, on the authority of an offi
cer of the Ghlfßailroad, that that road supplied
Lee's army up to the time when it was broken
up by Sherman's troops, with eleven thousand
five hundred head of cattle per week, the beef
coming from Florida and southern Alabama.—
Even this supply was insufficient for Lee's de
mands, It seems; for we read that a month or
six weeks before Sherman left Atlanta for Sa
vannah, General Lee wrote to the president of
the Gulf Railroad that its capacity must be in
creased, or he could not maintain his army in
Virginia, but would be compelled to fall back
nearer to his base of supplies.
There is reason to believe, from information
In possession of residents of Savannah, that Lee
has not thirty days' supplies on hand; and it
would not be surprising if be should attempt to
leave Virginia, with the purpose of concentrat
ing all the forces of the Confederacy somewhere
in South Carolina, probably near Columbia,
there to tight the last great battle of the war.
Such a movement would alone enable him to
secure once more the interior and central posi
tion, which at present Sherman has snatched
from the southern armies. It would involve, of
course, the abandonment of Virginia—but it be
gins to be plain that if Lee stays In Virginia ho
will be caught.
But with the ruin which Thomas's gallant
troops have inflicted upon Hood's army, we
have, in fact, two spare armies; and no doubt
Sherman and Thomas are already preparing for
such movements as will meet any possible ma
na.uvre of Lee's. The great day of final concen
tration, preliminary to the decisive blow, op
pears to be at hand.

It is astonishing how comfortably the Rich
mond papers take every disaster to the rebel
cause. The opening of the Mississippi was of
" no consequence." The capture of New-Orleans
was of "no consequence.", The lose of Vicks
burg was of "no consequence." The failure of
the attempts to invade the North was of "no
consequence." Sherman's "agreeable march"
through Georgia Is of "no consequence." The
fall of Savannah is of "no consequence." In a
word, all reverses to the armies of the Confeder
acy, all occupation of Its cities, all destruction of
its supplies, are of "no consequence."

Cams iv Tint FIELD, Barone Rlcusroxn, Va. r
January ad. rhea.
Mr. Editor :—"Once upon a time" I hoped to have
had the pleasure of addressing you from Richmond
before the close of the year eighteen hundred and
sixty-four, but fate has decreed otherwise, and I am
perfectly willing that fate should bear the brunt of
so grievous a disappointment. But I regard the cap
ture of Richmond as merely " postponed on account
of the weather," a very necessarry proceeding in all
large undertakings sansen.e.., and we may en3oy our
selves in the interim by contemplating the victorious
progress of our arms in other parts of the vast field
of operations. In truth, contemplation ie all that is
left us before Richmond, fur the theory of a direct
assault upon its defenses Is pretty effectually played
nut, and bas few adherents. However. Jeff's remov
al le only a question of time, and the fruit will taste
all the better for ripening to its fall.
All's quiet In front of the army of the James, and,
having nothing of our own to talk of, we meet e'en
busy ourselves with the affairs of others.
The fizzle at Wilmington has been a fruitful topic
of discourse since the return of the expedition, and
it seems to be a common agreement that there's a
screw loose same:Mere. As the two Divisions of In
fantry comprising the land forces of the Expedition
were taken from this army, we were particularly in
terested in the result. We did not feel particularly
elated at the killing of an orderly, the capture of two
hundred worthless Home Guards, and a Rag of less
ficoont than either. Thank fortune, we are not go
ing to give it up so, and ten thousand men under the
command of Make Gen. Terry start for Wilmington
to-night. Gen. T. Is a good officer and we feel great
confidence in his ability to fulfill his mission.
I have it from an unofficial sourer, that Gem But
ler attempted to open hie famous canal on New
Tear's day and that the attempt resulted in a flute.
In my humble opiniom too much importance has
teen attached to Gen. Butler's digging operations at
Dutch Gap. Just so kr as the canal annoys and al
arms the Rebels, just ad far it serves a good purpose,
but.l opine that will be the only service it will ever
do us.
Deserters continue to so and come on the picket
lines. Those coming Rom the enemy tell a sad
story of destitution and suffering In Dixie, but they
are usually well clad, stout, and rammed in appear
ance. The deserters from our aide, I am sorry to
say, are more numerous than they should he, but
they are from that class known as " bon eq . ,' um pers."
So many of that class had deserted from a certain
Maine Regiment that the Rebels had the impudence
to send [or the colors, saying, as they had the ma
jority at the men, they were ensiling to them t I feat
this la not an isolated case. In view of such facts,
and.the impending draft for three hundred thousand
men, would It not be well for the people to do away
with, or re-model, the present system of paying
bounties ? tilo long es you pay immense bounties In
&adrift:deli to all comers, just so long you will be
duped by worthless scoundrels who will betray your
muse, and your wealth and substance be wasted
(worse than wasted) in the same ratio that the mines
outnumber the honest men of society, an extent fear
ful to contemplate. There are many lessons why
bounties should continue to be Returned sol
diers who are exempt from by reason of former
services, will not consent to leave those dep
upon them, suffering for the necessaries of life, while
an army of bounty jumpers are sporting your money
in the grog shops and dens of Canada and your own
States, and It la right and proper that they should be
well remunerated for farther services. Let the boun
ty be paid in monthly or quarterly instalments du
ring the term of service, and the bulk of the remain
der when the eoldler receives an honorable discharge
from the service for wounds at disease contracted
in the discharge of his duty. Every system tins its
Wilts, and probably this has as few as any. At all
events, until some radical change ban been effected
in the present loose system of plying bounties, It be
comes the duty of every loyal man to stand his chan
ces In the draft wheel, and do away with the present
system of enriching scoundrels at the expense of the
blood and treasure of honest patriotic men. Being
drafted is not the wont that can befall a man. If It
was right for Ave hundred thousand brave men to
sacrifice their Ryes in a glorious cause, It can be no
great wrong that Aye hundred thousand more should
risk their lives in bringing the cause to a glorious
consummation.'

Letter from 1111patrick's Cavalry
CAMP NSAII SAVANNAH, Dec. 18, 1884.
Dear ..fferher:—Your letters of Nov. 13th and `loth
came to hand yesterday, and most welcome they
were. In our tedious march of upwards of three
months from Marietta to Savannah, we lost, in
killed, wounded, and missing in our Company 20
men. The 'Ninnies came very near getting me.
It happened In this wise. We `ware on picket, on
Griswold Station, at one of the numerous swamps
this side of Macon, and our Company was dir
mounted, and, not being properly supported, we
were charged by the Texan Rangers, flanked, and cut
off, and half of us captured. I thought at once that
my chance was desperate, but, enapping my carbine
at the tile, I struck out for the Third Kentucky, on
our left, and ran for life and liberty. The race was
short, but the hardest I ever mn. I capped my car
bine as I ran. I turned and snapped it at a burly
rebel who had already fired two shots at me, accom
panied by a volley of epithets anything but compli
meutary to my humble salt But it missed fire, as it
had done twice before that morning, and,l saw plain
ly that I was defenceless. Visions of Andersonville
and Libby prison danced before my eyes. Then, to
the rebel's, "Surrender, you d—d Yankee son of a
—," I answered, " I ' can't see it," and grasping
my carbine by the barrel I let drive at him, missed
him, but hit his horse a lick 'that "sent hi.; whirl
lu ;" and st the same time RICUMC.i charged them
with the first battalion. A more fervent "Thank
God :" I never uttered than when r saw the Union
"Gideon" corning down the road, and heard the
cheers of our gallant fellows as. they swung their
sabres over the heads of the now flying Southerners.
I looked on a moment, then went to the rear, where
I found the scattered remnant °flay Company.
We have done considerable fighting since, but have
lost no men out of OUT Company. We are now with
the ammunition train. Here we are in no danger.

The Ominous Activity of Sherman
From the Richmond Era:miner of Jan. i
While General Grant, from policy or the force of
circumstances, remains quiet within his entrench
ments, on the banks of the James, his coadjutors,
Sherman and Thomas, keep their troops In motto.,
and bid fair to throw the Lieutenant-General into the
shade, and monopolize the popular honors which
the Yankees so lavishly bestow upon their military
leaders. It seems to be well ascertained that a large
portion of Sherman's army is advancing In the di
rection of Charleston, but whether his purpose is to
attempt the capture of that city or move towards
Branchville, cannot be ascertained until he reaches
the Combabee river. The Charleston and Savannah
Railroad extends ha a westerly. direction from Sa
vannah to the Comhabeo, Oily-four miles, and
thence to Charleston In o lino almost due east, fifty
miles. The South Carolina Railroad from Charles
ton to Augusta runs from Charleston to Branchville,
sixty-two miles. In a northwesterly direction, so
that Bnincliville Is due north of Saltkotelir's bridge,
the point at which the Charleston and Savannah road
crosses the Combabee. If Sherman forces his way
to this river be can move either towards Charles.
ton fifty miles, or Branchville, due north, forty
miles; and In case of any &stutter or reverse can fall
back to Broad river, above Beaufort, under the cover
of the Yankee gunboats. If the railroad from
Charleston to Bcanchville.la kept Intact, Sherman's
purposes whatever they be, will probably be thwart
ed, and we shall not be surprised any day to bear
that Kilpatrick has been sent forward to cut It, pro
vided Sherman's Infantry are not eneounterrA and
driven back weldor the Combibee. At last accounts
they were moving towards GmhamVille, which Is
twenty miles from the river.

Two Ways of Treating Prisoners of
I'
Dr. Mary E. Walker. who suffered months of Im•
prisonment at Richmond, and has since received a
commission as full surgeon in the United States army,
has written the following letter to a friend at 0.07.2-
go, which appears to the Ttmes of that place:
" FERAL'S MILITARY PRIRON, I
LOLTI9CILLR, KY., December 3.4 th, 1864. c
"Soars in received, and while I was perusing the
same, informing me that • three Oswego soldiers had
been heard from, who recently starved to death in
.outhem prisons,' I could not suppress a flood of
tears from eyes that have went so bitterly at the
knowledge of wrongs and cruelties without the
slightest power to right. While I write the prison
ers here are at dinner. They have the hest of coffee,
soup, potatoes, fresh beef, (over half a pound at each
plate) and the very best of bread. Could I have had
the quality and quantity In a week while a prisoner
In Richmond that tatell one of these prisoners con-
All 11l es in a day, I could not have complained of the
' bill of fire."
•
"Thanksgiving day they all had an excellent din
ner sent by a pretended Union woman. It consisted
of turkeys, chickens, celery, turnips, pies and sever.
al kinds of cake. It was all ready for the table. Corn-
Merits from me are unnecessary, for I am confident
you will make enough. While they were gormand
izing, I could but express mvaelf to some Unionists
In my office, and you are sufficiently Imaginative to
know that I wished our poor, brave and famtehtr^
soldiers south had every mouthful. I assure ypu
did not forget the day that I tried to hold a half of a
brick two minutes and a half with extended arm, to
buy a biscuit of ordinary size, and was so weak that
I could not bold it half that time, and lost the wa
ger. Think you a Yankee man wouli not have given
me a blacult when my arms fell powerless ' and I had
to his knowledge but. a gill of wormy rice for supper,
that I would have declared three months before that
I would starve to death before I could eat, and feel
now as though I should die of starvation than eat
the same again, Il I were sure my remains would be
properly respected, which, I am sure would not have
been there ?"
Francis P. Blair in Richmond—An
other Peace Mission
The Tribune has a dispatch which says that "Fran
cis P. Blair, Br., went on his second mission of peace
to Richmond on Saturday, His son, Montgomery
Blair, did not accompany him.
"Passes from the Confederate authorfites—elvil
and military (delay In the receipt ot which at Grant's
headquarters, had induced Mr. Blair last week to re
turn to Washington)—bad he-en transmitted to 4iin
here, and will enable him to continue his journey to
Richmond without Interruption.
"Ile is dontuler. In that city. It Is known here
that Mr. Blair will propose to the Davis government
,clicine of pacification, resting fundamentally on a
return of the mite/110UB state• to the Union.
" Whatever political and moral advantaza maybe
derived to ua from this tender of the olive branch,
no hope is entertained here that Mr. Blair'a mission
will have the success of Initiating negotiations for
peace. The condition of reunion will be foul to his
or any other envoy's labors."
The Governor of Delaware Reoom
mending Emancipation.
Cieventor Cannon, In his annual message to the
legislature of Delaware. again takes strong ground In
favor of emancipation In that state, as lie did in his
inaugural address. Ile repeats that Delaware is con
nected with the free states by geographical position
and commercial necessity: that the products of Del
aware rind their merkets In the North, and that
thence conic the immigrants who give Increased val
ue to real estate; that the result of constant inter
course with the North is gradually to assimilate the
inntltntious of Delaware to those of the free states.,
an it has already Identified their interests; that slav
ery in Delaware, being merely nominal, is worthless
as an clement of labor ; that emancipation in Mary
land hos surrounded Delaware with tree soil, Invit
ing the escape or slaves on all sides, as there la now
no law requiring their rendition.

An Important Rumor
Oull for a °entre:talon of the Rebel States to Rev
olutionize the Revolution.
WASIIINGTON, ThOrEday, Jan. I.2th; 1865.
A gentleman in Washington, who has seen the
Richmond Enquirer of Thursday last, says that pa
per mentions the following :
"A call is out for u Convention of the Confeder
ate States. The intention of the authors of the call
IS to revolutionize the revolution, to depose Mr. Da
vis, wipe out the Confederate Congress, appoint a
dictator in his stead, and perhaps surrender to the
enemy."
A CONORY.SSMAN "ON ma Itcsci.z."—Oregon sends
a fresh ba--kwooaarnau to Congress—one who never
saw a railroad until ho came on thin amnion, and was
Ignorant of the ways of traveling and civilization.
But he had heard of tricks upon travelers, and was
determined to be im:tosed upon by nobody. Arriv
ing at New York by steamship, be took the cars for
Washington, taklug care to buy bls ticket at the
right place. Shortly after the train had left Jersey
City, the conductor came around and sounded the
aentorian rail with which railroad travelers are fa
miliar. The Oregonian handed his ticket as re
quested. The conductor looked at it, tamed' one
oft.he coupons, and returned it to him. Wm was the
very thing the honorable gentleman. had been guard.

daylight. So jumping up nom his seat, he Beized,
the conductor by the back of the neck, and In a tone
of indignation which signified an Immediate fight,
said' d—ta your soul, if yon don't give me
back my ticket, I'll throw you out of thIS car."' It
Is needless to say that the belligerent Oregonian was
pacified by en explanation to the effect that the con
ductor had only done his duty to tearing off the cow

was employed. " Weil," said the misguided con
