VEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVENBER 30, 1864;
Volunteers for the State Guard.
It is now clearly understood that all volun
teers for the first five regiments of the Stale
Guard will, if embraced in any future drafts,
be furloughed by the War Department for the
time they actually remain in the State service.
And when this time in the State Guard is
served out, it will be regarded as the expira
tion of this furlough, the man thereafter to be
ordered into the United States army, there to
complete the time for which he was drafted.
All such volunteers will also be credited on
any future drafts which the War Department
may make for their full term of service to the
State, thus: If a volunteer in the State Guard
serves one year, and he should after the expi
ration of his time be drafted by the United
States, for two or more years, he will receive
a credit on such a draft of the year devoted to
the state. These are important facts, and
will no doubt induce the speedy filling up•of
the first five regiments of the State Guard.
Deserters in Canada,
Our Canadian neighbors have had a good
time in affording refuge and encouragement
to the poltroons who deserted from the armies
of the United States, while the sneaks who
abandoned the cause of their country in the
hour of its greatest need, calculated that they
would enjoy themselves hugely while living
under the protection of the British flag.
But "the tables have been turned." The
deserters now in Canada begin to yearn
for their old homes and a place in the
land of the free. Lately a meeting of
these deserters was held, at which a petition
was adopted, praying the President of the
United States to receive them again as sol
diers, and asking to be allowed to return to
their country, exempt from the punishment
which they incurred as deserters. But the
Government is not to be brought to terms, by
any set of men who are without desert, and
the preliminary conditions demanded by
these refugees preclude the possibility of any
compliance with their requests. The United
States are not so bad off for men that the ac
quisition of the uncertain services of bounty
jumpers and deserters is a matter which jus
tifies the abandonment of the dignity of the
people. Had the refugees petitioned to be
taken back, and trusted to the mercy of the
President, their case would have.been differ
ent. But they cannot be allowed to make
their own terms with the Executive. Conse
quently, we suppose, ihey will be compelled
to endure the miseries of their Canadian
refuge, furnishing to others a powerful warn
ing of the folly and miseries which would re
sult froth an imitation of their example.
THE BARBAROUS TREATMENT OF I:Nuys Pius
°Naas in the hands of the traitors, is begin
ing to arrest the attention of the civilized
world. History contains no story of brutality,
oppression and fiendishness equal to that
which establishes the fact of the treatment of
our brave boys now in the power of the rebels.
The sick and wounded are thrust into deso
late cells, left to lay neglected on the cold
groundf deprived of all medical attention,
refused even common food, and robbed of
what little comfort they may have had on
their persons when captured. These accounts
beggar all description. The world never heard
anything like this treatment of our soldiers;
and sooner or later, every civilized nation in
Christendom will be forced to acknowledge
that a people adding these inhumanities to
the already great crime of bartering in hu
man flesh, are not fit to exist on the face of
the earth.
—The secret of this brutal treatment of our
soldiers, now prisoners in the South, is ex
plained by the teaching of the rebel leaders.
It has long been the fashion of the "aristoc
racies" of the South to teach the superiority
of the Southerner over the Northern man.
These brutes now display their superiority by
treating their defenceless prisoners with the
utmost barbarity. Indeed, such conduct is
characteristic of the whole course of the con
spirators. And yet we have to hear or see
the first word. spoken or printed, by the cop
perhead leaders of the North, in denunciation
of these crimes.
THE manner. SEQUENCE of the logic em
ployed by the opponents of the Government,
when they urge that all Ipyal men should vol
unteer, is simply-this, that all who remain at
home should be copperheads. For so soon
as a man gives his support to the war and the
measures of the Government, so soon as he
assists the efforts of the soldiers, and joins in
disapproval of their enemies, North and South,
then he ought never to remain at home. He
must enlist at once, according to copper
heads. Nothing else is consistent or de
cent for him. But the members of their own
ranks, not content with staying at home, heap
abuse and detraction upon the ssoldiers in the
field, deride their efforts and. slander them
behind their backs, and there is no word of
disapproval for them. Not a whisper.
Now we consider that though it may be
mean—and we do not say it is not—for any
able-bodied men to remain out of the army,
it is infinitely, immeasurably more mean and
contemptible to stay at home and combat the
efforts of those who have gone. He who does
this and yet seeks to cover his iniquity by
assailing others, is but a mean and hypocrit
ical scamp.

GEN. HOWARD'S MOVEMENTS:
GORDON OCCUPIED ON THE 21ST—CHT.MICAL
WORKS AND FOUNDRY DESTROYED 'AT GRIS
WO/Walla
[Ram the Savannah News, Nov. 22.]
A private dispatch, dated Gordon; 'half-past
two o'clock, statts that at that hour the en
emy were within two miles of Gordon. They
had burnt the chemical works, a lumber train
and a foundry at Griswoldville. A Confeder
ate force in sufficient numbers to meet them
was at Gordon. The force of the enemy was
but a raiding party.
Since the above was in typo we learn that
a forco of the enemy occupied Gordon yester
day.
ADDITIONAL PAHTICULAMS OF THE OCCUPATION
OF GORDON AND GRISWOLDVILLE
[From the Augusta Constitutionalist, Nov. 22.]
Passengers who came down on,this road
last night report that a raiding party of the
enemy tapped this road at Griswoldville, ten
miles this side of Macon, at three o'clock on
Sunday afternoon. They confirm the report
of the capture and destruction of a lumber
train. Two freight trains going hence to Ma
con approached very near to the wreck before
discovering the presence of the enemy. The
lumber train captured was set on fire, the
valve of the engine reversed, and the train
started down the track.
The freight trains were reversed and put
back as rapidly as possible. A short distance
this side of Gordon heavy cannonading and
rapid discharges of small arms were heard.—
It is supposed that the firing was at Gordon,
and that General Wayne, who was htdding
that position, had been attacked. Others re
port that the firing was at 'Macon. The dis
charges of artillery were very rapid. The
regular mail train to Macon turned back at
Tennille.
THE REPORT ED OUCIJDA.TION. OF MILLEDGEVILLE
CONFIRMED
[From Ike Augusta Constitutionalist, Nov. 22.]
Milledgeville is suppoSed to be in the
hands of the enemy. It had _been entirely
evacuated by our forces. Everything of value
had been brought off.
ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS OE THE MOVE.IIENT ON
MULEDGEVILLE
AUGUSTA, Nov. 21.—A raiding party of the
enemy tapped the central Railroad, at Gris
woldville, at 3 o'clock P. xt., on Saturday,
Nov. 19th, and captured and destroyed a him
ber train. Nothing else is known of their
operations in that quarter, except that heavy
firing was heard a few hour§ afterwards.
The movement of Sherman was a feint, for
the purpose of concentrating our forces there,
and the raid upon the railroad was for 'the
purpose of keeping, them there, whilst .the
whole force of the enemy moves upon, and
captures Augusta or Savannah. .
Sherri:tan did not advance his infantry down
the Macon and Western Railroadfurther than
Griffin, but his cavalry came as far as Barnes
ville. He has crossed the Ocmulgee with his
infantry on that line, near Indian Springs.
His whole force is moving in this direction.
His advance was within three miles of Union
Point, the Junction of the Athens branch
with the main stem of the Georgia. railroad,
at 11 o'clock this forenoon.
GENERAL SLOCUM'S MOVEMENTS.
MADISON STATION BURNED BY SLOCUM ON THE
19TH INST.
[1+15:71 the Augusta Constitutionalist, IVov. 20.]
From a gentleman up the Georgia road,
who left Greensboro yesterday, We learn that
Madison has shared the tate of other places
visited by the enemy in his present movement.
The fire was set to the depot by the incursion
of about one thousand cavalry, who reported
the strength of their column at two corps—
about sixteen thousand men. They returned
to their infantry camp after setting fire to the
town.
[Madison is a station on the Georgia State
railroad, one hundred and three miles west

snooom's ADVANCE AT HOGSHEAD STATION ON
THE 20TH INSTANT.
[From the Augusta Constitutionalist, Nov. 20.]
An engine sent up the Geord►ia road this
morning, found the advance of the enemy
about Buckhead, in what force was not ascer
tained. Considerable excitement existed up
the road, and many were removing their ef
fects,

railroad, ninety-four miles west from Au

SLOCUM AT GUEENSHOEO ON. THE 20TH INST
[Prom the Augusta Genstitutionalist, Nov. 20.)
The up-train on the road yesterday did not
go further than Crawfordville, sixty-five miles
from Augusta, from which point an engine
was sent up to Union Point, ten miles further.
The engineer reports that the enemy were
three miles above the }Ater place, in what
force was not known, but believed to be but .a
small body of cavalry. It is rumored that the
enemy crossed the Oconee below the railroad
bridge. The enemy was in Greensboro on
Sunday afternoon. -
[Greensboro is a station on the Georgia.
State railroad, eighty-four miles west from
Augusta.)
SLOCUM'S INFANTRY STILL WEST OF THE OCONEE
ON THE 21ST .INSTANT.
[Earn the Augusta ConstiMtionalist, Nov. 22.]
Our only reliable information of the position
and movements of the enemy up the Georgia
road is that the bridge over the Oconee has
been burned by them. Their infantry force
is still on the Atlanta side of that stream.
This bridge is seven miles above Greensboro.
Up the river from it,, fourteen miles, is the
Flat Shoals crossing; and below, nine miles,
is another bridge. Greensboro is eighty miles
from Augusta.
TRH REBELS ILLSSING AS ARMY TO OPPOSE

We are also told that the wife of a prbxainent.

oceived a letter from her husband, in which ,
if is stated thit General Breckinridge and the,
troops, under,-him would leave trpOr Bag
Tennessee on Saturday, Nov. 12, on their
march southward. By this time this com
mand must be well advanced towards the
Georgia line, and will undoubtedly soon give
a good report of itself.
We shall probably be blamed and censured
for giving publicity to the above news ; but
the enemy are undoubtedly aware of the
movements of our troops ere this. So no
harm can possibly be done in giving it to the
public.
With Hood in his rear, Breckinridge on his
flanks, and thirty thousand veterans in his
front, Sherman cannot escape. t
VETERAN REBEL TROOPS REESTFRCING, ATLANTA.
[From the Augusta Constitutionalist, Nov. 22.]
As we write, the glad and familiar shout of
veteran troops, just arriving from the South
Carolina depot, comes up from the streets.--
We welcome these gallant fellows; and Mr.
Sherman's men, if they retreat this way, will
'hear the whistle of bullets from the trusty
guns which have often been pointed at fanat
ics on the banks of. the Potomac and the
James.. The troops are being properly dis
tributed, and before our readers will see this,
other glad shouts will be heard in our streets.
GOVERNOR BONHAM, OF SMITH CAROLINA, gEND-
[From the Augusta Constitutionalist, Nov. 22.]
Governor Bonham has called out the mili
tia of the State of South Carolina, and they
are ordered to assemble at once at Hamburg.
The ,reserves also of South Carolina, are or
dered to rendezvous at the same place at once.
We are glad to note an increased feeling of
confidence in the city. The whole available
force of the community is under arms and
ready at a moment's notice for the trenches.
The enemy are believed to be east of the city,
about thirty miles distant. The direction of
their march is uncertain. They are reported
to have a wagon train eight miles long.
Many are of the opinion that they intend
to leave Macon unmolested, fearing to attack
the large force gathered here, and the splen
did fortifications which surround the city:—
One thing is certain—Macon is to be de
fended to thtylast, and those best informed
believe it can he held against any force Sher
man can bring , against it.

APATHY EXISTING IN .AI7GUSTA
[From the Augusta Register, November 221
It is high time that our citizens looked the
stern emergency in the face, and prepared
themselves accordingly to ward off the danger.
The worst feature prevalent in our midst is a
universal apathy. A frightened multitude
may reach to deeds and sentiments of heroism,
but apathy is like the silence that broods over

How He Behaved in Washing

I=l
WASHIN . ffiON, Nov. 29
The Old Capitol Prison received a distin
guished visitor this morning, in the person o
Roger A. Pryor, formerly a member of Con
gress from Virginia, the maimer of Clemens
of Alabama, and would•be murderer of Potter
of Wisconsin.
It appears that several days ago one of our
officers, belonging to the 9th Corps, who had
gone out on the picket line to exchange pa
pers with the rebels, was taken prisoner by
them. Our boys determined to retaliate for
this outrage, and an opportunity presented
itself night before last. About dusk a rebel
officer came down to our picket line in front
of General Potter's Division to exchange pa
pers. He was immediately arrested and taken
before General Pottor on the charge of being
a spy, as be had a private's coat on over his
uniform.
He turned out to be Captain Roger -A. Pry
or, formerly a general in the rebel service,
but subsequently reduced in rank by Beaure
gard. At the time of his capture he was a
Captain of an independent company _of scouts.
'Gen. Potter, by whom he was exangned, is a
fast cousin to Potter, of Wisoonsin v whom
Pryor, in former days, challenged to a 'duel.
Captain Pryor came up on the mail, boat
this morning, and appears again in Washing-
ton, but under somewhat different auspices
than formerly. .0n his way up the Avenue,
this morning, he evinced a great deal of non
chalence with the United States officeri.an
each side of him.
He sauntered along, smoking his cigar, and
bowing familiarly to old acquaintances whom
he .met on his way to the Old Capitol. He
was dressed in a good suit of Confederate
grey, and, his long hair and well developed
moustache gave,him quite a distingue appear
ance.

Rebel Accounts as to Sherman's Movements.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.
The subscriptions to the Seven-Thirty loan
during the past week amounted to $3,200,000.
The Savannah Republican of the 24th
contains contradictory statements as to
Sherman's movements, particularly as of
his crossing the Oconee river.
The column operating on the Georgia road
kept the Western side and struck off in the
direction of Macon, as though contemplating
a junction with the forces in that vicinity.
It is stated that a strong force of cavalry is
following Sherman, and that it is not impossi
ble that Forrest may era long hang like a wolf
on his rear and flank.
Some of the recently exchanged, prisoners
have reached Washingtop„and say that when
they arrived at Savannah from Millen, they
were kindly treated. and' furnished with the
best food which could be procured, and that
the people intimated that there were forces
under Beauregard and Johnson at Macon and
Augusta to oppose Sherman, but they did not
believe he would encounter - them, or that the
military authorities would in time decide
where to concentrate the force they had, at
Savannah. There were over 1500 men who
could make a feeble resistance. •

NEW CREEK CAPTURED AND BURNED BY THE
REBELS-AN ATTACK ON PIEDMONT REPULSED.
WHEELING, VD, NOV. 19.
The rebels under General Payne surprised,
captured and burned New Creek, on the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, yesterday.
They sent a force of about 300 to Piedmont,
but were stubbornly resisted by Company A,
6th. West Virginia Volunteers, who fought
them three hours, when they retreated on the
Elk Garden road. The damage inflicted to
the railroad was very slight, and the commu
nication between this point and Cumberland
is re-established.
The following are all the facts that can be
gathered in relation ‘ to the late raid on the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad:
About one o'clock on Monday afternoon a
rebel force, estimated from 1,500 to 2,000
strong, appeared in front of New Creek Sta
tion, which was defended by a small body of
troops behind earthworks, who were soon
overcome and either murdered or fled.
In a short time the enemy were in full pos
session of the post, blew up the earthworks,
and destroyed all the temporary and other
buildings, except the residence •of Colonel
Armstrong, who is either now or has been in
the rebel army.
The cutting of the telegraph wire gave the
alarm to the railroad men at Piedmont,
whereupon all the rolling-stock of the com
pany, and other moveable property, were
moved to a place of safety.
Soon afterwards the enemy reached Pied
mont, and desatoyed a round-house of the
company, a large work-shop, and a consider
able quantity
,of valuable stationery machi
nery_
So far as known, no damage was done to
the railroad track or bridges.
The enemy are reported to have left in a
southerly direction, and there is reason to
hope, they will be overtaken by the force sent
in pursuit of them. •
The fire which caused the destruction of the
steamer Greyhound, while coming down the
James river, yesterday afternoon, with Major
Generals Butler and Schenck, and Rear Ad
miral Porter on board, is supposed to have
originated in the locality of the felting, with
which it is customary to protect the wood
work of steamers from the heat.of the boiler
and steam chimney.
The valuable horses belonging to Major
General Butler and staff all perished. Two
persons on board managed to obtain a small
portion of their clothing, and with this excep
tion the captain, pilot and all hands, experi
enced the loss of all their personal effects.
The Greyhound belonged to Mr. George H.
Powers, of Hodson New York, and was uni
versally acknowledged to be the swiftest
steamer in these waters.
The pirate Florida sunk at her anchorage
off Newport News, this morning. Vessels
bound ddwn the James river, report that
merely the topmasts are visible above the
water's edge. It has been well known that it
was with great difficulty that the Florida
could be kept free of water while lying in the
harbor, on account of the breach made by the
prow of the Wabhusett, in the encounter off
Bahia, having extended nearly down to the
