Thk Yasksk SirjATiox.—Lincoln’s majority in
the Eiei'iortU ccileges is very grrat, approaching to
nBiDimiij; bui the popalar majority is n6* eaually
grcAU Tbit vihich we hoped for is rsalizsd, viz: the
re-electioa ot Lincoln with a great and growing party
oppoat d w him. We have not yst seen the particu-
iare of tr>e papula* vote, but leam that Lincoln’* ag
gregate m. Jonty is efuraated at 300,(K'0,and of that
number on«-hait«. or 150,000, is given by the New
EcgUnd Siaw#. Toe greaf iJiate of New York is
so flbaily divided that out of some SW.OOO v*tes
LiccolD’tf majoriiy is on>y about 8,000. It will be
actm;tt*>d ibat 30i>,000 majority in a vote of verr
nearly four millions is comparatively small. It leaves
l,8i)U,000 voters opposed to Lincoln and his policy,
and in favor, as «re have rea£>on to hope, of peace.
Nor do wo be ieve that tlfe friends of pea^e are con
fined to tU'B great minority, but that almost every
Toter for L.ncoln w:ll be equally in fa»or of peace
end of ietiiug the South go, if our armies j&ould con
tinue to whip and baffle the great armies of Grant
and Saermau, and especialiy if our people soonld

aiinauoa to he eitisfied with nothing short of inde-
pdndeaca and 4ercai separatiou from tli© yankee

former run into at dead hoar of night, when totally
off her gaard, for the avewed pmrpese of sinking her.
The latter ioiulted''became itie is c. comparatively

The Richmond Examiner, in which we find the
above, might have shown that it was nntruo, by
quoting from the Times of the 26th October, its de
clarations that “every day that the war goes on we
see less and less probability that the great fabric of the
Union vjll ever be reconstructed in its original
form,” and that “wo look forward at no distant date,
to the day when the credit of the Republic must be
hopelessly and utterly destroyed.”
Thb Tallahassxi.—As it has been officially ar-
nounced at Richmond that the Tallahassee has re
turned to Wilmington, there can be ao icapropriety
i" our saying, that we have seea a letter from a gen-
tlemaa who was on board of her during her late
brief cruise of ten days, otatiug that she captured
and destroyed seven yankee mefcnantmen. In going
out from Wilmington the oiociiaders fired 4i) shot
at her, oae of which passed through the bow, but
hart no one. She experienced a very heavy gale,
after which, at daylight one morning, she espied sev
en other yanjcee merchantmen, but the sea was un-
tortunately too rough to lower a beat for their cap-
tar©. A yaakeo cruiser then chased her for«threo
days, when, about tne latitude of Beaufort she gave
up the chase and went to that place, as is supposed,
to get other cruisers, and so on the same day there
appeared seven of them, one of ifhich, a very fast^
and large ship, got so dose as to fire 45 shots at the
rallahasssee, all of which Missed iheir mark. The
rallahassee gave her a few shots in return, and
she soon began to drop astern, then changed her
course and made fur the bar. The Ta.lahassee made
for the beach and reacaed it, then steered for the
bar also and reached aad passed it ia safety, thongh
t&e yaakea nad had the start of her.
Cbstificates oy I.vDKBTfDNKss.—An officcr of
the governiacnt has called cur atteniion, and asks us
to call that oi our readers, to tne propriety of mveat-
ing in the 6 per cent. (Jertidcat«s wiiich the Treasury
is authorized to ioRue. Taere are two lights in whicn
toe subject uiay be viewed. There is ou appeal to
pavriotiijm, which, however, in our present circum-
skances id h i another nano for self-interest, siao’
our eve;y intereat is bouad up in the success of the
Lcafederacy in its straggle for independence, and
tiiut sacceiis is depeadeat upon tho procurement «>f
funds to carry on the war. The Trtasury is only
authorized to issue two hundred millions of currency,
of which much tne larger ponion is already issued.
Besides tuia, the supply of mn'^a must accrue from
the sale of bonds aad the issue of these certificates
of iadebtednesi, which it is hoped will be received
by crediu>rj of the government in lieu of currency.
Thus, wnen a person sells to the government officers
any provisions, or becomes a public creditor by con
tract for work, it is desirable that he snould only re
quire payment of money to as limited an extent as
possible and receive tue remainder in these certifi
cates. Their advantages t re, tnat they bear 6 per
cent, iuterest, payable bemi-annnally, and are exempt
Irom tctxation oa either principle or interest. They
are thus better than any bonds issued by the gov
ernment except tne 500 millioa bonds, (and these can
cinly be bad at $1350 lor a i^lOOO bond, whilst the
\'ertificates are to be had at par,) for tbe reason that
the taxable bonds at preseat yield but one or two
ptr cent, a year, and there can be no expectation of
such a reduction of the tax as wili leave as much net
income irom them 69 from these untaxed Certificates,
i'hey are payable two years after peace.
It is true that these certificates have been sold in
the stock markets at less ttian par, (not by the gov-
♦irnment, whica does not sell them at all, but by the
reeipieni# from ifte government;) but that we sap-
i>o(je to hn owing to the fact that they are not desiT'
uDi« for remittance to Europe, wnilst bonds are
parchased in Urge quantities for such remittacce
10 an individu.^1 wi'o dee ires an investment yielding
«-ertaia and fair rate of interest, they^are just as
KCod Bs bondrf. Aa such, we would respectfully

A Chkistmas Diir.xKa roa ocra BjLDnas.—The
Richmond If big notices the propoiitiou of tae jan-
kees in the Northern cities to furnish a dinner to
ihfcir soldiers in the field, acd proposes to our farm
ers to imitate thoir example, one of tne few yankee
examples tnat can be ioi.tated with propriety. vV*
se ond the suggestion, except that tie idea ueed no
be confined to the farmers—aluiost everybody eau
contribute something towards ii.
The Whig says to the farmers: “lend ereiy tnr-

Mail Fah.urs.—We regret to learn that all our
packages for offices douth of Warsaw, that left
here on Thursday afternoon, were brought back on
Friday, to start a/ain on their travels oa Saturday.
Tne mall from this place arrives at Warsaw about 2
or 3 o’clock in the morning, not Ijog, we suppose,
before the a'artiug of the mail /or this place, and it
is perhaps not surprising toat the worthy Postmaster
should ue somewhat drowsy about that time of
iiight; but as such misi.'ive4 have occurred more
than once, we would respectfully suggest to him to
have separate places in his oihce for placing the
mails to and /ram this place.
Thk Old Issci.—We rejoice to see that C^gress
is aboui to exteud the time for the redemption of
the old issue to the 1st oi July next. Tnis is right.
Tne people submitted with general cleerfulness to
the tax of one third on these notes, but the repudia
tion of the remainder is un'Worthy of the Confederacy,
especially when that remainder would be found to be
la the hands of the more ignorant classes. Better
impose a slight additional tax upon thum for e;ich
month until returned, since it is i.nportant that they
should be returned and withdrawn from circulation.
THE WAR.
From the Richmond Sentinel, llth.
The war ce'vre io exciting to-day, and telli of ac
tivity everywhere. The campaign of 1864, initead
of pasamg its last days in peace, is f« expire in sters-
The 18th day of November Is here, asd wint«r has
given ample warning that be ie not ftr behind hie
time. But in Virginia new moveBients are afoet,
and in Georgia and Tenaessee a vast caapaign, siB-
gularly complicated, is in process ef development.
Sheridan, after doing his worst in the Talley, fell
back to a point comparatively near the Baltimore A
Ohio railroad, and anamei the defenslTe. From
this position he has at last effected what be has been
aiming to do for weeks. He is believed to have eent
off a large portion of hii command to Gen. Graat
If tnis prove correct, and we th>jik it will, we miy
expect a speedy renewal of heavy operations in this
vicnity. Gen Grant has been hitherto incomjietent
10 any new enterprise. He was only able to lie be
hind his works, and watch. True, he made recently
an important attempt. Dr^wiag every man fredi liis
trenches that ^e dared, and pressing into the service
hifl cooks and teamsters aid mosiciaas, he threw out
flanking columns at both ends of the conh-onting
lines, and sought to turn our position. 0' his failure
and Hia severe chastisement it would be superfluous
to ppeak. To hia surprise, he found himself every
where vig'orously Euet, and bloodily reposed. Re
tiring behind his ^I'orks again, he has been since con
tent to remain in- ive.
If joined, howu. -r, by Sheridan, Grant would once
more ia^ulge hope of .'^dvactago from a rtuswal of bis
cndeavoiii. Uo wvuld calculate on bting able to hold
^ his Mcas, and at the same time have a' iarre moveable
oolainn for flank euterprises. This columa he i»ay ven
ture to throw far out, in imitation of Sbermaa’s *ove-
luent npon Joncflboro’, aad r^'ly upoa its ability to do-
feat aay similar forc« of our own. If this bo his plan,
we inay ««zp»ct that he will attempt to exoeufeo it with
celerity. As soon as Sheridan joins him, ho will proba-
bljr aim to dalivor ablow, if po6sibI&,b«fore wo are ready
to mset him
If tiie vaist fleet of monitors collected and colleeting,
under Portar, art to piay a part in Grant’s operations,
than the latter's maiu attempt will be oa the uoi th side
of tbe James. If the flaet, however, operate against il
luicgton, thQ Grant will more upontMeiouth side, with
a view to cut our communications with that quartsr As
the season of storms ia at hand, wo hardly suppose that
the clumsy iron clads will be ventured out at sea. Poor
svrimmers at bast, oae gale such as the Carolina coast
has of en listened to, would sink the last of them. Oa*
tha whole, we think that this colloctioa and co-operation
of fieetn and arniif^s ara meant for Hichmoad; and that
soon we shall hear the roar of their united artillery.
It is our butiinrss to bs pre|»ared for the onset. The
wave is coming—the rock must bo ready. Grant has
fariouily flung himself upon us many times heretofore,
aad has always been repelled and discomfited; we must
administer to him the same disuipliae again. Vfe dare
bay he will have Ms u:nal luuk. Ths iatcrval sinoe his
lac^t attaoks baa not bs*n pMssd idly We caa say no more.
From Teanessee we hare no further tidings to report
from Beauregard through our owa sources; but that it
self is tidings. The U ailed States papers report him as
baring orossed tbe Tenness-je river. We suppose he has,
and ttiat he is now in Middle Tenaessee. The p;an of
operations on Sht^rman's part, at we learn from the samo
source, and we suppose correctl/, is, to leave Thomas,
witii such reiDforeomaata as have heea saat him, to op
pose Beauregard, while Sherman with his own column
shall Buovo bouth from Atlanta. This Is so confidently
asserted, and is supported by so much of circumstauce,
that we accept the programme as the true on«. “■ *
The first point marked out, as aimed at by Sherman,
is Macon, distant fr«?m Atlanta 108 miles, Alacon gained,
we are iaformed that he is a^it to move upon iSarannab,
I9U miles from Macon, and upon Charleston, li>4 ailes
fsrihsr. Perhaps Auijusta, i64 miles from Mauoa by
rail, is to form a poiut la the grand tour. *
Having resolved upon such a march, Shennaa has
committed bita^elf to it, by tearing up the railroad be
hind him as far back as to Altoona, aad by destroying
the bridge over the Chattahoochee—a singular maucea-
vre to be sure. Sinca then his paopla at hoi.ie have heard
nothing from him; we trust the}’ never will agaia. It is
the speculation of some that instead of marching upon
iavaanah acd Charleston. Sherman will move for Mont-
^mery and M^bde. Go which way he will, he has a
loiig ro'id bifvTe him, and it wdi bo our iault if it prove
no* a rough one.
tv ill B^uregard turn and pursue Sherman, or will he
prosecute his own campaign—the one moving Sorth, the
other South? His purpostse are neceesarily secret; nor
arc we in possaseion of tae information for an opinion as
to the best poli*-y
It is to ba ho^^ that the people of the States through
which Sherman proposes to mirch wili fliag thamselves
i^n him with a courage that shall do them honor,
"nierc is a capit.al *.litfereace between hts situation sod
that of Uvod’s; he is in an enemy's country, while Hood
is among tri. nd^ No sacridce of property, no activity
of opposit’o.i, raast be oimt-d now, or considered ei-
ceadive. I'-ar down tbe bridges, f>lo;k the roads, rn-
:aove or d«?atroy supplier, cut otf foragers, fight at every
pas^. If Sheiuuan enould be able to accomplish such a
joura^y -'s he proposes, fora.{ing aa he goes, it will be a

about R 'ch-no7id nnd Petsrsburg.—There
wai nothing of importance done on th*'- lines before
Rchinoad and Petersburg yesterday. The bom
bardments of Dutch gap was kept up in fine style,
and the hoomiug of tne guns was heard distinctly in
our streets. There is a general impression, gathereji
chiefly from hints dropped by the yaakee press, that
(Jraat is preparing for the final grand movement of
the canpaignin Virginia, which it is cc'nfidentiy
hoped by yankee people is to end the war by
taking Kichmood. Coustant arkd repeated failure
seeming to have ao effect upon him, we know of no
reason why he should not make anotner attempt to
d slodge our army. As Butler’s ^aual is not yet fin
ished, fvn attack on our c.'ntre is haroly to be thought
of, and hid next attack will probably be, to some ex
tent, a repetition ot his last, except it will, we thiok,
oe the last reversed; that is, he wal assault with his
ueaviost columns oa the north side. It is said he is
already mustering his forces for the fray, and de'^ert-
ers report that he has been reinforced by a portion
of Sheridan’s command frcmthe Valley; but this we
shall not iuiplicitly credir until it comes to us through
some less questionable channel.
From Petersburg we have nothing; of interest. Tne
Yankees coutiaue their raids and depredations into
Surry aad the neighboring coun Jes aad are t-reatin ^
the inaab tants with unusual barbarity —the raiders
Dcing mostly negroes.—Rich. Dispatch, \^th.
From, Oeurgia.—The only official information re
ceived by the press yesterday was that Sherman had
destroyed tne Northwestern and Atlantic railroad
from Atlanta to Altoona, tfe Chattahoochee bridge
included. This movement is difficult to anderst»nd,
exccpt as explained by uiiotficial reports that were’
in circulation during yesterday. If they be true, the
deslruction of the railroad can be understood, though
It wul still appear a superfliious labor. The reports
had it that Sherman, having burnt Atlanta on the
15th. last Tuesday, had set out for Macon with three
corps, amouuung together to 35,000 men, and that
he had, on yesterday, reached Jonesboro’, 22 m'les
south cf Atlanta. If there is truth in these accounts,
as we bc’iove there is, Wheeler has much to answer
for. I devolved upon him to watch Sha-man and
Keep posted as to his movements. Only four days
pgo he rpporrj-d him “moving towards Bridgeport.”
Now^ it is said, he reports him moving towards Ma-
coa, as abo?e stated. Tbia latter report is corrobo
rated by otner evidence.
Sherman will, we think, meet with opposition he
does not calculate upon before he reaches the forti-
fication»» of Macon. These works, shou’d he ever
reach them, he will find of the most formidable cha
racter, and with the troops that before that time will
be collected in them, they must give him a vast deal
more tronble than he evidently counts upon. If the
Georgians will battle -tor their trenches as the Pe
tersburg militia did last June for theirs, or the Rich
mond m.litia did at Staunton river bridge, later in
the summer, Macon will be saved.
In undertaking this expedition Sherman is too
prudent .t, mau vo rely upon sijbsistinsr his army on
the couuf-jr. It bec-MU: s mteresting and important
to confc'dcr wu pjtnt he calculau^s upon makiog
his »>a3 j 01 supplies. His destruction of the railroad
northwest of Ationta proves that he has cut loose
from the Caattanooga oase. He must, then, ^e look-
iog to s-me point ou tlie Atlantic or tne Gulf. We
are disposed, for several reasons, to believe tnat Pen
sacola 1; the selected point; this, not became of its
greater proxiinity than any other post to bis present
field ot operations, but because it is ascertained that
r«.T more than a month very large supplies have been
us^cuiuulated there. If he tioil to take Macon at the
first dash, he will probably run for Pensacola, and
make it a new base of operations. It is not to be
to enable him to enter ipon a siege wUch ihall o«-
a«^ any considerablo leagth of time.
We have ventured the epinion that Shermaa had
Pensacola in view as a new bate of snpplies; but it
it proper to say there aro reaioni why he night se
lect eese peint on tko Atlan*'ic as boiair nearor at
hud. Savanaah, for instance, cffsrs advantages,
did iti approach not iavoive the certainty of a rreat
deal of heavy fighting. ^ *

in Winchester. They have tamed their stock in the
cemetery, and have not only pulled np the tomb-
•touts Md OTorthrowu the uinnuzDeatSr but broicfB
them in pieces and desecrated the graves. They
had taken pessessios of all the chorchesia tlje place,
as hof^il^s, except the EJpiscopal, wiiich they s&id
was too daap for the patients.
Sheridan bas, without doubt, sent away a portion
of Ws forM, and they have, it is said, arrived at City
Point. This infenaation comes from deserters, as
wtU M front our own tcoutt. Aoother intormMit
Bays souie ef thev have been put into Fort HarriKO'^.
i'hore is evidently a great scheme on foot, and the
Yankees are determined to spare ho efforts to ren
der it succossfoL—Ib.

Br0gHian jtc«0unt of the Capture 9f iht Fl*ri-
dm.—'I’ho following account of the seizure ot tn^;
Florida in the ^irt of Bahia is taken from a Brazilian
journal. It appears the Florida had run under the
guns of a fort for protection:—
‘•Tho. vessel was seized by the Wachusott, and the re
port of her capture was quickly spread through the city.
The next day an officer uf tne Florida noiihed the com
mander of the Wachasett tbat hs had bo right to cap
ture the Florida in tkat port, and that the Brazilian bov-
ernmeat would demand aa explanation of his courei-; that
tha port was free to all vessels, aad that the capture of
such vessels should be maae outside. The aeieuro caused
great excitement among the people of liahia. The whole
lauit lay in tne W achusett, as she bad violiited tue laws
of the rrofince.
After seizing the vessel, sb* was tied to the VV'achusutt,
whose commander at once prepared for sea. The small
guns of tno Florida and tae crow were removed to tbe
vV achusett, and a portion of the anginds were taken aw&y
in order to prevent uer escapiag. As she was going «'ut,
the people, gathered oa tbe saore, aud batteries were
levelod at the vessel Some of tne mea oa the Wucbu-
sett then fired revolvers at the spectators, which iacreaeed
the excitesisnt, but the vessels left the port.
W hen tae Florida was hoardad by tae officers of the
ffachusett, tke crew acted very quietly, but the men of
the Wachusett endeavored in vain to make them act
otherwise. They declared that if they had the arms of
,thtiir opponents, and their whole craw on board, they
7/ould not let themselves be captured. A fire was thea
lit in the Florida, but tho sailors extinguished it. Before
the capture, the two veawls made signs to tight, but
they were stopped by the o/B-crs of the Province. Pre
vious to tho eeiauro, 4 sailors of tho Florida reached tne
shore, aad 16 jump^ into the water, bul they wore res
cued by several vessels. When the American (Jonsul
heard the report of the firing from the Wacausett, he got
up in the ni^t time and h»a it slopped.
The othijer of the Florida, when asked to surrender, at
once threw his sword into, the wal«tr.
Oomoaauder Morris, of the Florida, has sent a oommu-
aicatioa t j the President of ti»e Province ttianking him
for the vffjrte he made to prevent her eapture in a neu>

The matter ij a ssrious oae, and may be so regarded
by the lirazilian Governmea’t.” ^
