THE REBEL PEOPLE TOLD TO HOPE We hive received all the Richmond papers of the 23d .and 24th, and present a summary of their con tante. Their columns have but little news from.Shere man, but many speculations, about lils movement s isnd intentions. nisi const antly assure their road- OIS that Rhenim:o:old dash will- end in disaster, and affect to believe that the best thing Sher. man could poesittlY. baYe, done for the benefit of the Confederacy. The Enquirer of 'ffedrieiday, the 23d, 118 ye : _ The rains having put a determined stop to all im. .mediate Military operations In Virginia, Georgia now cencenkrates the common interest upon herself. Until the present year the people of that State knew nothing of the horrors of invasion, and not until thermal in Atlanta were they fatly alive to the reall - Me which war had Introduced In their Midst. As nothing, however, has occurred In the past history of the state, save the weak utterance of a few child ' telt men, to Indicate that she will not bear up proud , ly, as other States have done,umder the heel of the invader, we can but expect that the will emulate ' her long suffering sisters, - now that the true hour of her trial is come. . Sherman is march ing into the heart of the State; as yet his move ments have met with but little resistance, a fact which may be explained by the necessity the situation demands of drawing him off; as far as possible, from the only point towhich he eoall rea sonably look for autos/V:4e may, unmolested, cap ture some of the mr.l4st — towne, as he captured others in the norannaipart of the State, daring_ the summer campaign': •It is not abeiriteprobableihat he.mag take the capital of the.Stateond, perhaps, move thence upon Savannah or Aug - este, with an ultimate eye to Charleston.

It says : Wenrestill, at a loss to understand the ulterior objectb Of Sherman. The Yankee papers, more than awfonth ago, We out that the seat of war was to be the Cotton States this wiater. If such be de sign, and this the execution of it, the certainty that he will more upon Savannah or Charleston, in or der to stead a base for futud operations, seems pretty • well inatebltshed. Once In Savannah br Charleston, however, he will find himself as effec tually besieged there:as Howe was in Philadelphia when Dr.„Franklin wrote that instead of Howe ta king Philadelphia, Philadelphia had taken Ho we. A Confederate army, lying before whichever of these cities he may select, will effectually bath& entrance into the country and render his army-11ov° In the article of employing so large a force to blockade it —as useless as though it did not exist. To take po sition in Charleston orSavannah Is to place himself In precisely the same position with Howe and Olin ton in New. York.. They had the city with good quarters and a powerful fleet. Washingtin lay above them, witching. 'them carefully, eluding off their parties whenevee ey ventured out; or, whew they clime. out in fiat i , ms, takintrup such strong ground and offering ba rbestop spot/. terms that they did not dare, in a single instance, Ineciept,lL. If it be the Intention of Sherman to take either or tide cities, he has first to take it, whibli hem ill - fled ho easy job; secondly, to operate in thecountry,whiehi with the army that will certainly confront ntle,,he will find no easy undertaking. As for openliag any, communication with the country he has left behind. him, that we take to be out of the question. •Inlfie Revolutionary's's", the British, besides having pos.. session of Oharimiton and Georgetown, had posts all. rough the State. When they were finally corn- F dleif to abandon thesolatter, they all retired into harleston, and Green held the whole country, while they attempted no further enterprise. If Sher-. man go to either Charleston or Savannah, and there, be shut up by .our armies, it will probably be the best thing that can happen to either of these States, since It will be the means of leaving them free and uninterrupted by the presence of the enemy in the agricultural country. Our own impression, how ever, is that this expedition has been undertaken with a view to render,asslatance to Grant. ' Savan nah or Charleston once taken, it would be very easy to transfer Sherman's whole force to the lines be fore Richmond and Petersburg. Richmond is now the prevailing , Yankee idea, and all other enter prises dwindle into Insignificance in comparison , with that directed immediately against Richmond. As our readers win observe, all our tidings from Sherman are gathered froln the editorials of the rebel journals. Their W ar Department and the press reporters are perfectly silent. Not a single despatch from the centre of - Interest to both our-. selves and the enemy is printed. The Richmond' editors all declare that they have a reasonable 'anxiety to lay before their readers all the latest and most reliable news from Georgla' as well' as ' from other parts of the Confederacy, but "under 1 existing ciroumstinces are not at all vexed when neither the mail nor the telegraph speaks anything of Sherman." They consider that the Yankees are eagerly looking for such news .thriaigh thelifoll- .! mond press that they may direct other incevemlnts, but they have no deaire.to give it, and recondl• themselves to the'silence of the reporters and de • reticence of the Department. Bat the. Examiner of the eAd, bearing these things in mindin oommen with its cotemporaries, says : Froni all that we have heard to-day, we are dis- • posed to believe that the enemy have occupied MU- . ledgeville, the capital of Georgia, and compelled a, summary adjournment of the Legislature recently '••• in session there. The prevalenotoof the small'pox,l and the necessity of moving in some direction will" doubtless relieve the people of Milledgeville from a • protracted occupation of their town. It is also said' that the enemy have severed railroad connection at , . Gordon, twenty miles from Macon, the. point at*, which the Eatonton branch of the Central Georgia 1 Railroaddiverges from the main stem. Tele oats us : oft from direct communication with Macon, and leaves the fate of that city Involved in unoe rtainty. The movements of Kilpatrick, commanding Sher man/a cavalry, seem to indicate a purpose to avoid both Macon and Augusta,-and seek an "objective point" on the coast, near, Savannah. If he was aiming for Augusta we are hopeful that he is "too late," as we - were still in communication with that city yesterday, and private telegrams received state that the people are oonfideut-of the repulse of the Yankees should they approach the city. The Examiner of the 24th sags : Let us not forget the lessons of the first American Revolution: In the . last years of that struggle, the British columns penetrated the country in many directions—marohed clear through—yet gained not one valuable result. On the contrary, the war was brought to a conch- . Bien by those identical successes in appearance, failures in fact. The country rote behind them ; the American forces permanently severed the commu nications of. army with army; and the event of, the' triumphal processions of the British generals through Georgia, South Carolina and North Caroline was the surrender of the armies-which had accomplished almost without resistance those splendid feats. If Sherman should continue to meet with as little'. opposition or attack as he has done for le hundred miles, through another hundred miles, his own real danger is only increased by what seems to be the accomplishment of his plans. He has to deal with a . ice which has hafted the best of generals and the most powerful of armies—a* area of territory too great for occupation, and a hostile population too numerous to be controlled by any single column. But are these the only adversaries with which Sher man toust. contend' - We know nothing of the mill. .tary dispositions to meet the contingency of his adopting the present campaign, and we would not expose our knowledge in a newspaper even if we bad It. It Is difficult to believe, however, that a movement so probable, so long threatened, and so suggestive of a coun ter plan as that,of Sherman, should not have been fatly calculated and provided against by the Confederate Connell. Never, lance the time that Cornwallis was entrapped In Virginia, has an army or a general ventured on snob manifest danger as Sherman has. done. We 'shall - Ile - truly surprised and mortified if he estop& from it, and reopens communication with his Government. ' ' The evening edition of the.

Mr. Mayor, there .have been those who have left Roxbury, and have come back be fore me to this hall to be welcomed, who, after hard service in the' field or suffering In prison, have received your welcome here. It was meet that you should welcome them. God only. knows what .the motives have been in the enemies of cme country to break into fragments these St4tes of America. Here you have the rebel armies, and on the other side of the Atlantic you have enemies who are going through Europe planting the seeds of disaffection. Yon hear filial all sides the cry of the mtnarchists, that ftmeritia has been a failure, that the is no longer the land of freedom, but that ono is the landpf tyrunllY. 'r - ow, it seems to me that you should welcome those who have gone forth to defend their coun try, and, therefore,l thank. you on behalf of my fellow-40(ms, and of- my crew, for this ,cordial _welcome. I would dwall,a little longer upon the fight -that took place between the •Alabama and the Kee.rsarge, Int I know that pretty much all _or the incidents connected with that, action are :points, familiar to you ; but there .are certain .points, perhaps, which you have not been at unabated with. You, perhaps, are not aware, many 'of you, that - a member of Parliament, Mr. Laird, -was the builder of the Alabama ; that she received -the most remarkable appointments for a man-of- Star ; that she was everywhere received as a man ot:war, manned oy Englishmen ; and as she was looked upon in England as a maroof-war manned by Englishmen, it was felt after the action that a ship of England had been destroyed. [Applause.] " The event occurred while Americana were in a state of depression, and they were at once lineal:nit and the English nation were at once forced into their place. Now, ladies andgentlemen, there are many things about a sailor's life and about sea life which, It appears, are so interesting to you that you have , given us this welcome;' you welcome us for having passed many hardships and toils; but whatever the cost, whether it be for sus taining the Hag of the country when it had been east down by the rod oross of England, by the power of an English crew, or for whatever cause it may be, I thank you again in behalf of the officers and crew of the Kearsarge for your cordial welcome?'
