Sherman made Treason feel the iron heel of the conqueror by ordering all rebel, citizens out tilhis lines, so as to prevent an organ ization of rebel spies by the people who live on her bounty. : GOn.'Hood denoiumed the order as "studied and ungenerous cruelty." To this Gen. Sherman replied in the following pungent letter. It would be well for NOrthern men who are always complaining of Union armies and officers, to read . what the Hero of Atlanta says: MEADOI2I MII,PFAILY DWISION OF• MISSISSIPPI, rn the Field; Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 10, 1864.. Gen. J. - B. Hood, Cornianding Army of die Teetelusee. Confederate Army:. General—l have the &nor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of this date, at the hands of Messrs. Ball and Crew, consenting to the arrange. ment I had proposed to facilitate the removal south of the-peoplC,of Atlanta who prefer to go in that direction.' I enclose you a 'copy of my orders, which will, I am satisfied, accomplish my purimse perfectly. - You style the meares proposed "unprecedent ed," and appeal the "dark history of 'war" for a parallel, "as an'act of studied and ungenerous cruelty." - It is nee j unprecedented, for Gen. John ston himself very „wisely and properly remora' the families till the way from D a lton down, and I see no reason why Atlanta should be excepted. Nor is it necessary to appeal to the "dark history of war,' when recent and modern examples are so handy. You, yourself, burned dwelling houses along your parapet, and I have seen to-day fifty houses that von have rendered uninhabitable because they stood in the way Of your forts and - men. You de fended Atlaula on a line so -close =to town that, every cannon shot, and many musket shots from our line of in% estment,'that overshot their mark, went into the habitations of women and children. General Hardee did the same at Jonesboro', and Gen. Johnston did the same last summer at Jack! son, Miss. I have not accused you for heartles zi, c r uelty but merely instance those cases of very recent occurrence, and could gu on and enumerate bun-. dreils of others, and, challenge any fair man to_ jud'te which of us has the heart of pity -for the families of "a brave people." say, it is a kindness to these families of Atlan ta to ream . % e -them now at 'once fPoni scenes that women and children should not be exposed to; and the "irate People" should scorn tb continue their wires and children to the rude barbarians who thus, as you say, 'violate, the laws of tent,, as illus trated in the pages ofits,"dark history!' - In the name Of corriciii sense; I ask you not to "appeal to a just God*"`--,_ m such a sacriligious man ner! You who, in thtmidst of peace and prosper ity,haie plungeda nationinto war—dark and cruel war—thus dared and badgered us to battle, insulted oar flag, seized our arsenals and fortsthat were left in the honorable custody of a peaceful ordnance Sergeant ; seized and made prisoners of even the very first garrisons sent to protect your people against negroes and Indians long before any other. act was committed by the (to you) "hateful Lincoln Government;" tried to force Kentucky and Mis souri into rebellion in Spite of themselves; falsified the vote of Louisiana, turned loose - your privateers to plunder unarmed ships expelled Union families by the thousand, burned their houses, and declared by act of your Congress the confiscation of altdebts due Northern men .1 or goods had and received. Talk thus to the Marines, but not to me, Vi•ho have seen these things; and who will this day make as much as sacrifice for the peace and honor of the South as the best born Southren among you! If we must be enemies, let us bit men, and fight it out as we propose to-day, and not deal in such hypocrit ical appeals to God and humanity. God Will judge us in, due time, and He willpro.. nounee whether it be more humane to fight with a town full of women and the families of a "brave people" at our back, tar, to remove them in time to places of safe* , among their OSill friends and people. I respectfully, your obedient servant, am, W. T:Sarjr.slAN, Maj. Gen. Coin. THE RICHMOND EXAMINER ON THE POLITICAL SITUATION. The Richmond-Examiner, the-leading organ of Jeff Davis, reviewed the political situation on the Ist of Septeinber, and-pointed out with singular distinctness that the hopeisOf Rebel independence and Democratic success in the Presidential con test depended entirely Upon the succeas of the rebel armies. The Examiner thus states the ease: " If Atlanta were to fall, or Petersburg, or if Sheridan should drive Early back to Lynchburg— yr itany one of these ercnts shenildbefall, then all the peace principles and ycace Presidents of Chi cago would bs at the election in November where last year's snore is, and last night's moonshine. War, for another Presidential term would sweep away every vestige of opposition. But, ou the other ; hand, if Grant's anti--Sherman' s armies should hare' no more SUCTRAtit within the next three months than, for the three last, and if Sheridan's army of the! 'Middle Department' should still be pretending to ] , look for Early and taleingeare not to find him, or! else at the fit* sight of him, running straight away' —as for the last few weeks—in this ease it will not matter to us hi the, least if the Chicago Dem ocrats break up in utter confusion, and the Fre . wont party collapse, and the Davis-Wade party wither up, and Lincoln and Seward reign supreme —nothing stuuld avail—the scale of peace would preponderate, and that of war would kick the beam. "In other words, the issues of peace and war are not in the hands of politicians and statesmen': no, not in the slightest degree - they are :ituthe* handi of soldiers. It is useless to rote war if your last annies=are destroyed; useless to rote peace if your arenies•are marching on flushed with victory, to a splendid conquest. Further, those Yankees who are war men-to-day will he peace then in three mouths, if their campaign turn out ad until. failure; dad flionewho are for peace , to-day s (with a few exceptions) will foam for-war and yell for blood within the same three months, if they sce reason to, believe that the Confederacy is reeling to its fall." Again the same paper says : , , " If the Peace Democrats prevail" at 'Chicago, it will prove that the Democratic party generally thinks war played out, and ivelleyes it will have better rhance.of coining into place On a peace than on a war platform , yet , even that peatepint. farm could not stand up against the capture of At lanta and Petersburg—isoutel be swept out of sight in a moment by the capture of Richmond. So, if "the War Democrats prevail, and all the parties contending for power to advocate war until ' the suppression of the Rebellion,' yet 'that could not stand against the defeat of Sherman and the pearanee of Graiit'sbeaton remnant seirfecta,at Irashinglon. "Even as signs, then,or weather-vanes to show ; how the wind blows at any given nionieutAhese [indications are fallacious; especially , in a season Of change and tempest like the present. Aceor 'dingly, while we wait the nest news coming from the North, it was wed totLx it in our minds that, VOL, 71,-WHOLE NO, 3,674. . „ whatever that news may be this first of Seßtem ber, it and all its significance will be out of date on the first of October, out of the memory otthan on the first of November, and byl'ew Y ar'f(day will he with the dayil before the flood." : Well, Atlanta has fallen, and Early is driven hack upon Lynchburg, with his arm) shattered and broken. Sad news to traitors—sa bulletins for the Democracy! ARE THE GERMANS WRONG IN WVNT. LNG OUR BONDS? Not a' bit of it! No shrewder, thriftier people, in matters of money, exist on earth. Our Jersey peo - ple.and New England people are a frugal, in dustrious people, but they can't save money'lthe the Germans. All Germany its a great savings bank. It is true-that their working men an; not so rich,;cin an'average, as our working men u be cause they don't get more than one quarter of the wages of our men. But a German can save money, and ltelmosys when it is safe. Now these shrewd; thrifty Germans want our bonds. They want them by millions. They turn aside limn the great beggars of the world in Europe, and come to us Republic*. They treat the notes of Napoleon and Joseph and Maximilian with indif ference, but want to discount all the American notes they can get. The London Times says this is all wrong—that the Republicans in America are all bankrupt, and the Germans must be crazy to slight British and French beggars, and go beg ging, themselves, to America. Are they crazy ? We asked Prior Richard what he thought about it "Why," said he, !‘ how can they be crazy, when they are doing just what I did a little more ,than a, year a/io,.witen I put my little savings into Government six per cents? Now see what :I got by it; just count up. I have received six per cent, in gold, which averaged 100 per cent. in currency, making 12 per cent. income. Now, to day, my bond is salable in the New York market at 10 per cent, premium. Put these together, and to-day I have 22 per cent. for one year's use of my money! What do you think of that?' You know, as well as I do, that there are thoniands of people who do this, and to-day they hate 22, per cent. on their investments. Why," saw,Miss Jones, our school main, go to the bank and buy a $5OO bond. How she got the money I don't know, but these Yankee schoohnistressess are first.rate hands at taking care of themselves. Well,.now, count up. If Miss- .Tones sells her bonds to-day she gets her $5OO back safe, and she gets $llO clear gain. Can you sharp fellows down there in William street do any better? You know I told Mr. Smith, the banker, my ideas about that, and he bought- $5,000 six - per cent. bonds, and you see he got $l,lOO for a year's use of his money. I met him the other day, and he said, "Poor Richard, you are right; I begin to think the Gov ernment can take care of itself; And us too. For my part, I mean to buy some of the 7-30's: The rate of interest is high enough, and in three; years they, will turn into six per cent. bonds again." "Yes, Mr. Smith, it is right, on the money side; but,'4t is right on the country's side too. Help your country, or it can't help you. Now; I say the Germans are not only right, but they would be right if they got half that interest. They can not make a quarter of it at home." So thought I'oor Richard, and so think we. When we think of the German opinion of our situation and our financial strength, we must remember that they. are far better judges of our condition than we are, or our enemies are. They are lookers on, at a great distance. They have none of our mind ties or prejudices. They can exaniine the facts disinterestedly. , They do; and the result is aver" diet that the American Government is stable—its ability and integrity in meeting its financial en gagements unquestionable. This verdict., too, is founded on a series of facts which are unimpeach able, and well' known to every intelligent Amer ican. Take two or three of the most important: J. The United States donbleti its population each twenty-five years. The population of the vim. try, which in 1550 was, twenty :three in 1e75 be forty-six ,Brit the rebellion! says some one. How much has the rebellion di minished theStiength of the United States?. Take this astonishing fact, that if all the Rebel States luid been sunk in the Pacific Ocean, the United States would in 1275 have a population equal to that of Ihtleitat 113 1860. In - other words,Afteen. years will supply the total loss of the eleven orig ami:Rebel States! What can impede the prog ress of such a country 1 2. The wealth of the, country increased one hundred and twenty-seven per cent. in ten yezirs !

Sherman as he appeared on the march around Atlanta: While I was watching to-day the endlei3a line of troops 'shifting by, an officer, with a modest escort, rode up to the fence near which I was standing, and dismounted. He was rather tall and slender, and his quick- movements denoted good muscle added to absolute leanness, not thin ness. „His uniform was neither;new nor old, but bordering on a hazy mellowness' of gloss, while_ the elbows and knees were a little accented from the continuous agitation of those joints. Te face was one lehould never rest upon in crowd, simply because, to my eye, there was ,nothing remarkable in it, save the nose, which !organ was high, thin, and planted with,a curve .as vehement as the curl of a Malay cutlass. The face and neck were rough and covered with red , dish hair, Mni — eye light in color animated.,but,, through restless and bounding like a ball front one ',object to another,, neither piercing or brilliant; the mouth. well closed, but common; the ears large: the hands and feet lung and thin; the gait a little rolling, but firm extractive. In dress and manner, there Was not the slightest trace of pre tension.

Sherman's externals as I can pen. Seating himself on a stick of cord wood hard by the fence, he drew a bit of pencil from his pocket, and, spreading apiece of note paper on his knee, he wrote with great rapidity. Long columns of troops lined—the road a few yards in his front, and, beyond the road, massed in a se ries of spreading geeeu fields, a whole division 'of infantry was waiting to take np the line of march, the blue ranks clear cut against the ver dant backgrqund.

For a Mdf-hour I watched him, and, though I looked for'and expected to find them, no sYInP - . toms could I detect that the mind of the great leader was taxed by the infinite cares of a tern bly hazardous military coup de main. Apparent-. ly, it did nor fits upon his mind the weight of a trailer. k mail arrived. He tore open the pa pen; and glanced over them hastily, then chatted with some -general officers near him, then rode off with characteristic suddenness, but with fresh and swilling countenance, filing down the road beside many thousand men, whose lives were in his keeping, From The Presbyterian. UNREASONABLE MURMURS. Why ei on plain of yon r burdens I Suppose it be true even to the extent which the eXaggerators make it, that the war bas imposed upon us heavy taxes, and rendered the strictest economy neces sary to meet the enhanced prices of every article which we have to buy, have ye any reasonable ground of complaint ? There is to substantial good obtained without exertion and self-denial, and no class of men is exempt from labor if they expect to thrive in their copings. Strength, health, time, money, are severely taxed by those who expectto succeed in their various handicrafts. Why, then;\ should we shrink from the burden, when some great political evil is to be averted,or seine signal national good is to be achievedl We are constituent parts of the nation, with which our, prosperity and life are bound up ; and it cannot suffer or triumph without our participating in its fate. to thought our revolutionary lathers who freely eipendeil their prpcious blood and trsteP4Ft , that they might enjoy the blessings of a free. goy-, ernment, and transmit this blessing tot it. pros perity.

We should have find a shattered' and `disjointed gee erument, and such a dismemberment of our con federacy, as .would have, forever precluded the esibility of future stability an peace. Had Southern insolence been permitted to dominate and dictate, there would_have been no national ity_ The unity of the North' would have been broken. and wasting wars would have been our future history. In such an event how inconceiv. ably greater would have been our sacrifices, than those we are now called to make ! It would have been a pencument and hopeless tax upon our pro party, our Comforts and our lives; and the history of past prosperity would never have been repeat ed. If welcrce our "natio n—. if we condeinn its violators—if we cherish ,our dearest righM, and privileges, we should cease to murmur that we have to pay for security. We - are involved .in a frightful war with those who would be our tyran meal and cruel masters,-and the only alternative is a base submission or a continued and success ful opposition. Precious blood has been shed, un told treasure expended; and if more blood and treasure are required, let them be freely offered on our country's altar. To abandon the cause, at this juncture, would be a stigma affixed to then°. - ble and brave who have surrendered their lives in obedience to their country's cull, us wellas an a bandonment of the country itself, in all that has, hitherto rendered it illustrious. We reheat, then, that until the rebels hav,elaid down their arms, and renewed their allegiance to the government, it is the duty of all citizens to sustain, in all lawful ways, and at every arierififti, the cause of law, liberty and human rightii, in which we are now engaged.

It is vouched for as true by the writer, and he refers to the Union. soldiers for proof of the truth of what he says; "The newsnof the Chicago nominations was re ceived here on the 2d inst.
