Persons of sedentary habits troubled with weak- ne 4, lassitude, palpitation of the heart, lack o appetite, distress after eating, torpid liver, con Stipation, &c.,deserve to suffer if they will not try the celebrated PLANTATION BITTERB. which are now recommended by the highest medi- cal authorities, and warranted to produce an im- mediate beneficial effect. They are exceedingly agreeable, perfectly pure, and must supercede all other tonics where a healthy, gentle stimulant is required. They purify, strengten and invigorate. They create a healthy appetite. They are an antidote to a change of water and diet. They overcome effects of dissipation and late hours, They strengthen the system and enliven the mind. They prevent miasmatic and intermittent fevers They purify the breath and acidity of the stomach. They cure Dyspepsia and Constipation, They cure Diarrhea, Cholera, and Cholera Morbus. They cure Liver Complaint and Nervous Head- ache. They make the weak strong, the languid bril- jant, and are exhausted nature’s great restorer, They are composed of the celebrated Oalisaya bark, wintergreen, sassafras, roots and herbs, all preserved in perfectly pure Bt. Croix rum. For particulars, see circulars and testimonials around each bottle. Beware of imposters. Examine every bottle.

Schofleld—pass- ing over the railroad nearer to Red Oak, the country in @ moredirect lMne, and found iteelf near So Boneh and » and on the ex- treme left of the Union army. th these places are stations of the Macon railroad, but about eleven miles apart. It was therefore necessary that the gap between those wings should be filled, and the Army of the Cumberland, under Gen. Thomas, and which had marched along the route in two columns, behind the Armies of the Tennessee and Ohio, now came forward to the frontand formed the centre of the main army. Sherman's line was therefore eleven miles in extent, and ranged along the Macon railroad from Rough and Ready to Jonesbero, with its centre at Couch’s. The rebel forces had at this time been divided into two mainarmies, One part of the army Was entrenched at Atlanta and the otlier held Jonesboro, and was also entrenched. The cause of this separation of the forces arose from the fact that Hood had found ont by Kil- patrick’s raid that it was necessary that he should protect his communications at this post by a large force to preventa repetition of such & catastrophe as had taken place at that part o: theline on the 20th irstant. He inly hd not expected so speedy & movement of Sderman’s whole army in the same direction, or be would not have been likely to have com- mitted such a military blunder. Sherman's army was, therefore, between the enemy's forces. and had, as was announced from the hired Department, literally cut the rebel army in two. When Gen. Howard found the enemy in force at Jonesboro, he at once entrenched his command, locating the salient or projecting angle within halfa mile of therailrodu. This the enemy did not approve of, and an attempt ‘was made to drive off the Union troops from the position, doubtless supposing the force to be merely a raiding . Therebelsattacked Gen. Howard’s wor! about 30’clock on the afternoon of the 30th of August, and were easily repulsed. Meeting with so umexpected ‘a force, the rebels fell back into their works at Jonesboro, leaving their dead and woundedin front of Gen. Howard's lines. General Sherman soon perceived the advan- tages of his position, and determined to profit by Hood’s blunder. Having the rebel forces separated, the principal object was to keep them so, and thus conquer them in detail. He therefore ordered the advance ofthe leit (Scho- field) and centre (Thomas) rapidly to the rail- road, where they made a g lodgment, and during the 3istof August, nearly the whole dis- tance between Rough and Ready aad Jones- boro was despoiled of its railroad track, ties and other material. These two armies were also brought nearer to the intrenched ition. at Jonesboro, and to the left of Howard’s com- mand. By this plan of operation Sherman had interposed his whole army between Atlanta and Jonesboro. Having placed his troops in the destred posi- tion, Geveral Sherman, on the istof September, ordered a general attack mpon the enemy at Jonesboro. The movement was made with great gallantry, and after an amount of skir- mishing and artillery firing an assaultof the works was ordered. The Fourteenth corps, under the command of Brevet Major General Jefferson U. Davis, was selected to make the assault, and gallantly they charged upon the works amid a storm of grape and canister from the rebel artillery, nothing ¢aunted the brave boys who had so stubbornly resisted the efforts of the rebels at Chickamauga, who had formed the advance of Thomas’ forces at Chattanoo- ga, and who had bravely held their own throughout the Georgia campaign of 181— rushed upon the intrenchments and carried them handsomely, capturing about & thousand risoners and ten pieces of artillery. General Sherman speaks highly of the conduct of the men of the “gallant Fourteenth,” and officially awards to Gen’! Jeff. OC. Davis the honor he has 80 bravely won. During the night the enemy, finding it impos- elble to hold Jonesboro, retreated along the Macon railroad in a southerly direction and took up a position at Loveloy’s station, seven miles distant, and twenty-nine miles from At. lanta. Here they threw up hasty intrenchments to prevent the further pursuit of our cavalry, which had followed them to this point, inflict- ing damage on their rearand causing confusion Sarng the retreat. While Sherman was busily engaged in his attack upon Jonesboro, Hood, who had still remained in Atlanta, finding that he was out- flanked, his line of supply cut off, and the Union troops between him and & large portion of his army, became speedily convinced that the rebel position was untenable. In order to eaye the portion of his command with him, he determined to evacuate the fortified city, and on the night of September 1 he biew up his magazines, destroyed ali his supplies that he could not remove, consisting of seyen locomo- tives and eighty-one cars, loaded with ammu- nition, small arms and stores, and left the place by the turnpike roads. General Slocum, who held command of the army of observation, soon discovered the posi- tion of affairs at Atlanta, and on the morning of September 2 moved his forces from the Chattahoochie river and occupied the place. He captured in Atlanta fourteen pieces of artillery, many of them in first-rate condition, anda large number of small arms. Value of Atlanta. The value of Atlanta can best be understood by the desperate efforts the enemy have made to hold it, and by the earnest remarks respect- ing it that have appeared in the rebel journals since the commencement of the campaign. {n April last the Georgia papers urged upon the rebel government the necessity ef holding the Southwest, and as our armies have advanced so have they daily called upon the rebel army to defend Atlanta tothe last. The orders to Hood were explicit on that point, and only on condition that he shonid hold the place washe given commana. He certainly has endeavored to do so, but he has fouad his match in Sher- man. The following extr bus (Ga,) Times of April teresting at this time: “The capture of Richmond would prove of greater importance to our enemies in a political point of view thanin any other sense. With our capital in their possession, we would find additional influence brought to bear against us abroad; but as a material lose its fall would in no manner compare with the disadvantages which would result from a defeat of Gen. Johnston and the occupation of Georgia that would follow. The first point is near our boundary lines, the sec- ond is our great center. To lose theone would be as the loss of a limb; should we be driven from the other, if will be a terrible blow at our most vital point. This we must admit, and our enemy knows it.” 2, 3,596 TELEGRAPHIO NEWS. SHERIDAN. Early Still in the Valley—No Fighting Since Saturday.

British Press on the Seizure of the Geor- £ Discussion of American Affairs— Persistency of the North Acknowledged. New York, Sept. 6.—The steamship Scotia from Liverpool on the 27th, and Queenstown on the 28th, has arrived. The United States steamer Iroquis left Havre August 24,and proceeded towards Boulogne. The Daily News and the Morning Post both have editorially shown that the seizure of the pirate Georgia was legal, and that the British Government cannot interfere, as the Confede- Tate war vessel could not legally be sold in a British port.

Italso publishes evidence that her charter for the service of the Portuguese Government was bona fide. The Army and Navy Gazette admits that the Federal successes at Mobile is considerable, and as regards peace, it declares its belief that the existence of @ peace party is mythical, and that as long as there isa ray of hope North, it will march onward to its end of empire. The Times alsoeditorially questions whether the Republicans are any more inclined toa recognition or reconciliation than they were a year ago.
