Davis, or of the so-called “Confederate States,” under General Hood; and iu the movements referred to Hood is the first man with whom General Sherman would have to deal. As the guardian of “the confederacy,” is it likely that Hood would become a party to or permit these alleged communications be- tween Goveruor Browa and General Ster- man? No. General Hood. if called upon to assist in any such game, would squelch it at once; wad Genoral Sherman has no other way of reaching Governor Brown. We may be very certain that commissioners from Gene- yal Sherman gent to treat with the State autho. tities of Georgia “within the rebel lines” would be gobbled up by Hood; for, siihough the rebels prate eternally about State rights, we have seen that they care marvl- lously little for suck rights. or any others, when they are likely to interfere with the machinery of the Davis government.

Sho is now et the mercy of Sberman, and thus the bonor of adhering to Jeff. Davia to the extremity of subjugation and destruction becomes a very doubiful question. What a miserable mockery and delusion thus becomes this Southern fundamental idea of State supremacy and nationality. We are inclined, therefore, to believe that, whatever the particulars may be, there is some reality in these overtures. Georgia has bad enough of the wer, and wants peace, and that ia reason enoug! why her authorities should try to make it. I’ is worthy of notice, too, that the men stated to be with Governor Brown are the ones most likely to be in such a movement. Toombs and Cobb have found out that they are Nobodies in the confederacy, and want to get out of it, and Alexander H.
