Occupation ?! Montgomery.
Ciwcihfati, July 21.?TBe correspondent of
the Gazette, under date of Atlanta, July 22,
fives the following highly interesting details
of the movements of Gen. Sherman's army
since crossing the Chattahoochee riyer:
On the morning of the 19th the whole line
advanced; McPberson taking position on the
extreme left, Schofleld the left center, Howard
the center, Hooker the rlfht center, and Pal
mer the extreme right.
On the morning of the 10th our advance
reached Peach Tree Creek, a stream running
lour miles north of Atlanta, and after consid
erable skirmishing the enemy was dislodged*
and portions of Howard's corps crossed; our
left in the meantime swinging around to the
Atlanta and Augusta Railroad, near Decatur,
and tearing up several miles of the track.
On the morning of the 19th and morning of
the 20th, Howard, Hooker, and Palmer crossed
the remainder of their corps, forming in the
line of battle along the aorth bank of the
Creeek. At 3 p. m. the rebels made a desperate
and sudden assault on Howard, in great force. i
The attack soon extended to Hooker's corps;
the rebels advancing their lines deep. A por
tion of our line at first wavered before the ter
rible onset, but quickly rallied and stood firm
as a rock.
Anon, this portion of our line was massed
oyer half the entire rebel array, both parties
fighting, for the first time in the campaign, in
an open field. Before dark the rebels were de
feated, having failed to break our lines at any
point, and retired in disorder, leaving most of
their dead and 200 wounded on the field.
Our loss will reach 2,000 men, principally
from Hooker's corps.
The rebel loss in killed, wounded and miss
ing exceeds six thousand, including three brig
adier generals.
On the extreme left the operations were
equally successful, McPhersoa driving the en
emy several miles. Blair's division advanced
a mile and a half south of the Augusta road.
On the morning of the2!stthe enemy were
driven with small loss to their works immedi- 1
ately around Atlanta, and on the22d they had
?withdrawn entirely from Hooker's and Pal
mer's front, and at 2 p. m. of that day portions |
of our army entered the city.
The correspondent adds that we may have
some lighting for the full possession of the city, !
tout the campaign is considered substantially
closed.
A report, believed to be reliable, announces !
the occupation of Montgomery, Ala., by Gen. j
Rosseau.
The Commercial has the following:
The official report of the losses in Hooker's
corps in the battle before Atlanta shows
"Williams' division, 627; Graham's, 427; Ward's,
527: Newton's, 102; total, 1,713. Among the
tilled are Col. Logle, 151st New York; Lt. Col.
Randall, lldth New York;aud Adjutant Rad
cliffe, 143d New York. Wounded severely?

Saldwin, 150th New York, and Lt. Col. Mc

Losses. *
Louisville,J uly 24.?The Journal announce
the occupation of Atlanta by our forces on Fri
day. The rebel loss, in killed, wounded, and
missing, will reach six thousand, including
one thousand killed. Parts of our army entered
Atlanta. We may have some fighting for the
lull possession of the city, but the preserf*
campaign is virtually ended.
SECRETARY STANTON .
The ChrCniclf bas some Ja8t remarks in rec
ognition of the %"?rTices performed by the Sec
retary of War In w;TKanizing the resources of
the country for warlike puj*.0ses? Qnprepared
as we were lor war, and thinks tii? ?n"Ky and
executive skill displayed in the War Depart
ment have been overlooked by the press and
people. Words of censure have been used
"when there should be only words of approba
tion. The Chronicle says truly:
"Over a frontier line broader thaa Europe,
he has furnished facilities for pushing forward
vast armies, feeding them as no other soldiers
ever have been led, clothing them as no other
soldiers ever have been clothed, and, though
xuakmg occasional mistakes, displaying an
energy, a promptitude, and a minute attention
to the needs of each citizen soldier of which
Listory can furni.-h no parallel. This man has
beef) <^e.noaucef, I?y some 61 his subordinates,
? ,.-ed by a critical press, unsupported by
-flj organized band of friends, and yet has held
his plate by dint of a peculiar energy aud ex
ecutive skill that make him a war minister
worthy of the great crisis."
That Mr. Stanton has received thus lar scant
credit for his labors is not surprising. Few
men in public life have shown themselves so
Indifferent alike to applause or censure. In
taking the portfolio of War Minister, he seems
to have duly estimated the tremendous nature
of the labor to be gone through with, and re
solved to devote himself to its conscientious
performance, not turning to the right or left.
Though a ready and forcible speaker, we do
not remember that he has said five words , in
public since he assumed office; we cannot call
to mind that within that time be has appeared
in any public assemblage; and certainly tbe
members of the press?those all-Important
manufacturers of reputation for public men?
-will acquit him, one and all, of having gone out
ct hi" way one bairsbreadth to cultivate their
good graces.
Sturdy and self-poised, he seems able to dis
pense with that homage of popular applause
-which is the breath of life to feebler organiza
tions. And the censures against him he can
v. ell afford to disregard, so long as his bitterest
enemies are obliged to concede to him integrity
energy, remarkable executive ability, coupled
-with a fertility of Intellect quite as remarkable;
a combination of qualities that history has
jarely shown united in the same person.
The charge that he commits arbitrary acts is
sometimes bQt we thlnl? the reaJ Pr
ance with his ct. is that be wil1 not commit
arbitrary acU; that he refuses l<>do
things that he may have the J>ower to do? bnt
which he thinks will establish a nJ.11 Pr0cedent
and open the door for great abuses.
It is charged, too, that he is abrupt, curt in
manner. This charge is only partially true.
The sort of answer Mr. gets when he
attempts to edgo the 'secretary of War into a
corner to whi?^r a confidential proposition
lor a fat *'nlng tn yjj contract line may well be
c*'led brusque. And it i? just from this quar
ter from those disappointed shoddy-men who
get no quarter from Mr. Stanton?that most of
the opposition to him originates. A large
class, too, of boring visitors, described by
Holmes as "hard to launch,"?they are ready
to go, want to go, and you want them to go,
but they hitch on the ways unconscionably,?
this class of bores are shott off the ways quite
expeditiously by the Secretary of War. But
those who have any legitimate claim oil hi*
attention are sure to got a caretul aad latelli
gent hearing; and he is noticeably patient, it
has been observed, in dealing with people oX
Mumble position, especially when the appli
ttats are aged and feeble; a fact showing that
hla braaqne exterior covers a kind haart and
generous sensibilities.
Many of these case* are of parent* seeking
to get their sons disc barged from military aer
?ice for T&rions causes, and though he is com
pelled In moat such cases to refuse the app -
cation he rarely fails to convince the applicant
that he is right. We chanced to be present
lately at one of the morning bnsiness recep
tions instituted by Mr. Stanton at which he re
ceives en matte all those seeking personal in
terviews with him (turning off an immense
amount of wort thus in the course ?f an ho"
in his prompt, effective way) -J among^he
throng circling his busy desh.
of a young volunteer, seeking to get his sod
exempted on the ground of minor age. The
father was apparently of the legal profession,
and upon being informed what were the
official requirements governing such cases
be seemed inclined to contest the matter
argumentatively, having evidently set his heart
on sarrying his point. Mr. Stanton listened
good-humoredly until he was through, and
then answered him about as follows: "You ad
mit that your son entered the army voluntari
ly; that he is robust and well grown; is making
his mark as a soldier, and is anxious to re
main in the service. Now, why not give him a
chancel Let him follow his bent By taking
him away you mortify him, thwart his wishes,
and make yourself his enemy. Let him go on
in the honorable career he has chosen, and you
make him your friend, and give him a chance
to distinguish himself in the service of his
country."
?< I believe you are right, Mr. Stanton," said
the father; (more emphatically,) "You are right
My son shall stay where he is."
This was but an episode in the transaction of
weightier business, but we think it worth re
cording, as giving a juster idea than that
somewhat prevalent of Mr. Stanton's mode of
dealing with bis visitors.
SENTENCES COMMUTED.
President Lincoln has directed that the sen
tences of the rollowtng-named enlisted men
(who were tried by coort-martials recently
held within the lines of the Army of the Po
mac for desertion, and sentenced to be shot to
death with musketry) be commuted to im
?risonment at hard labor during the war at
Ty Tortugas, Florida:?Wm. T. Hill, 11th in
fantry; George D. Bell, 12th infantry; George
MsKnight, 14th infantry; John Wellington,7th

sylvania cavalry, and Thomas Congden, 65th
New York.
These prisoners are now confined in the Old
Capitol, but will be sent to the Dry Tortugas
within a day or two.
SENTENCE OP A BLOCKADE RUNNER.
Joseph Fedderman. a citizen, has been tried
by the military commission of which General
Doubleday is president, upon the charge of
"violating the laws of war." It appears that
Fedderman purchased a lot of contraband
(roods in Baltimore and other places within the
lines of the Federal army, and took them into
Northumberland county, Va., where he dis
posed of them to the enemy, after which he
returned to our lines without authority. Fed
derman has been found guilty and sentenced
to be imprisoned in the Albany penitentiary
until the termination of the present rebellion.
APPOINTED.
G. B. Hansen, of this city, has been ap
pointed to a third Lieutenancy in the revenue
service.

of Gen. Burnslde's Corps. Gen. BUdy Smith
has been relieved from the command of the
Eighteenth Army Corps, and Gen. Martindale
appointed to the command. The farewell or

FROM ATLANTA.
The Fi{btis( on Friday.
Dispatches to the Governmentrepresent that
the fighting en Friday at Atlanta was very
heavy. The enemy, holding the largest part
pf the city, assaulted our works on Friday
with gMftt fUTy. evidently expecting to drive
our forces out of the city. The 15th corps,
commanded by Frank Blair, seemed to be the
special object of rebel wrath, as the enemy
mafsed against it an overwhelming force. The
15th received the shock gallantly, and held its
own until Gen. Dodge, with the 16th corps,
came np, when the rebels were hurled back
with great slaughter
Gen. McPherson was shot while reconnoi
tering. He became separated from his 6taff for
a moment, when a rebel sharpshooter shot him
from an ambush.
The terrible struggle ended by repulsing the
enemy at every point on the line. It was ar
ranged that on Saturday the dead of both ar
mies should be buried and the wounded re
moved under flag of truce.
. The Union troops buried one thousand rebels
left upon the field within our lines. Besides,
the rebels buried many of their own dead near
their own works.
Upon this basis it is estimated that the rebel
killed and wounded on Friday will exceed six
thousand.
Our loss will reach about 2,500 in killed and
wounded, the 15th corps suffering severely, for
the reason, named above, that the enemy
massed against it. It was this act of the
enemy, in part, that cost him such a heavy
Iosb.
IN THE HANDS OF Till RAIDERS.
A week ago last Tuesday, while a bedy of
rebels under command of a lieutenant, were
moving south along the eastern slope of the
Blue Ridge, they came upon Mr. Kennet G.
Hamilton, of Loudon county, who had taken
three horses to hide in the mountains near
Ashby's Gap, to secure them against the rebels,
and they appropriated his horses and took him
in custody also, and compelled him to go with
them, lie was taken as far as Cregarsville,
and there managed to escape on one of his own
horses and started again northward along the
west side of the mountain, be taking that route
as he considered it more secure than the way
in which he went.
At Thornton's Gap Mr. H. met two other
parties, a I)r. Creijrhton, of Martinsburg, and
a Mr. Diller, of Williamsport, both of whom
had also escaped Irom the raiders, and were on
their way home. Here, by accident, they saw
the approach of another body of raiders, and
Mr. Hamilton, seeing no other means of get
ting safely away, turned his horse loose, and
the trio took to* the mountains, aad by dili
gent watching succeeded in steering clear
of the Confederates until they arrived near
Ashby's Gap on Wednesday morning last,
when they saw eight guerrillas approajh
mg, and they managed to secrete them
selves behind some felled treeB until the
guerrillas passed. They started again, bnthaa
not proceeded one hundred yards when a soli
tary guerrilla spied them and at once gave the
alarm, which caused the advanced body of
eight to turn back and give chase. Hamilton
succeeded in escaping, but Diller and Creigh
ton, it is supposed, were recaptured, as they
have not since been heard of. Mr. Hamilton
saw no large lorce of rebels except detached
bands, who were hurying South with plunder.
The party who captured him had wagons
loaded with grain, and one of the wagons con
tained a quantity of whisky, of which article
the rebs made good use. Indeed it was their
excessive indulgence in the article that gave
Mr. H.an opportunity to escape. Mr. H. saw
no Union force either going or returning, but
heard a few shots fired shortly after he and
his companions left Thornton's Gap.
THE 1STII ARMY CORPS.
By order of Lieut. Qen. Grant, on Saturday
last Major General Ord assumed command of
the 18th army corps, thereby relieving Genera1
Martindale, who temporarily succeeded Gen
eral Baldy Smith. General Ord, it will be re
membered, commanded the 13th army corps at
thelfall of Vicksburg, having relieved General
McClernand, and was also at the battle of Iuka
with General Grant, where he distinguished
himself.
General Martindale, accompanied by his staff
officers, Capt. Lockwood and Lieut. Baker,
arrived in this city yesterday, having left the
front immediately after turning his command
over to General Ord. General Martindale was,
for nearly two years, Military Governor of
this District, and his many friends in this city
will regret to learn that hiB health has become
so much impaired that fears are entertained
that he will be compelled to retire from active
field service entirely. Capt. Lockwood and
Lient. Baker, of the General's staff, were also
attached to the headquarters of this military
district for a long while, and we are glad to be
able to say that they are looking remarkably
well. _
THB SCARE AT ROCKVILL1.
The scare at Rockville on Saturday was oc
casioned by one of onr cavalry regiments
(which had been in pursuit of the rebels) cross
ing the river at Edwards" Ferry. Their horses
having become jaded by long marches, it was
found necessary to move along slowly, and the
citizens in the vicinity seeing the dust rising
thought that the rebels had again made the>r
appearance, and mounted their horses and
rode oil" towards this city. As these farmers
passed through Rockville they gave the talse
alarm, which had the effect of closing all the
places of business in that village, and in a few
moments hardly a citizen could be seen on the
streets.
Officers attached to this cavalry resriment
report that the invaders lost a great deal of
their live 6tock In their retreat, owing to their
rapid marching in order to evade their pur
suers. The roads over which the rebels pacsed
are lined with dead cows, hogs and sheep,
which are supposed to have dropped down
from exhaustion.
NAVY YARD.
The new revenue cutter Seward, built at
Philadelphia, has arrived at the yard. She
is a fine, fast, slde-waeeler, and on her trip
round gave good satisfaction. Yesterday a
party of gentlemen made a short excursion on
iipT.
The Wayanda revenue cutter left the yard
on Friday with Secretary Seward and a num
ber ot ladies and gentlemen for Fortress Man
rA0,
The Ella and Teaser, ot the flotilla, liftve
also arrived.
AGROUND.
Yesterday the hospital steamer Connecticut
ran aground on Kettlebottom Shoals, on the
Potomac, whilst on her way from City Point
to tliiB city with a load of sick and w*uuded.
The tug Seth Low was dispatched to the as
sistance of the Connecticut this morn?g, and,
in case the Low iails tT haul her off, steamers
will be sent down to remove the sick and
wounded.
HEBF.L PRISONER8.
Thirteen Rebel prisoners arrived here thie
morning, having been sent here by Col. Hyatt,
nrovost masshnl of the Sixth Army Corps.
The prisoners belonged to the Invading forces,
and represent Georgia and North Carolina
cavalry regiments. Six of them were com
mitted to the Old Capitol, and the others asked
permission to take the oath of allegiance.
SAM.
An escaped prisoner from Libby came into
our lines in the valley last week and reports
that he left Lieut. Frank Foot, of the l?l*t New
\ ork. In the prison. Lieut. Fool was reported
as killed in the battle of the Wilderness, but it
now turns out that he was wounded and cap
tured, and be has lost a leg.

LOCAL NEWS.
Raib?much needed and long needed?has
again visited tills part of Terra-firma at last,
mack to the joy of farmers in the country, who
looked wit* solicitude upon the destruction of
their crops by the sua, and also to th? joy of
the cant-get-away portion of the dwellers in
this hot and dusty city. The rain commenced
to fail about 11 o'clock last night, and con
tinned steady until an early hour this morn
ing, bnt the sky has been lowering all day, and
occasional ahowera continue to visit us. A
considerable quantity (although hot enough
to saturate the parched soil,) must hare fallen
not only here but up the Potomac, for the
water in the river and canal has perceptibly
increased. The wind has at times been exceed
ingly high, and we hear there was a heavy
storm on the lower Potomac, which retarded
the progress of steamers coming up the river.
Everybody is, however, grateful for the blessed
rain. There are Indications that it is not yet
over, a fact our fanners will be thankful for,
as they need a good deal more in order that thi
ground may be placed in proper condition for
cultivation,as the late continued dry spell has
parch^ it to an unusual degree.

Railroad Brides over the Potomac
Com plbtbd.?The new bridge of the Wash
ington, Alexandria and Georgetown Railroad
across the Potomac was completed on Satur
day, and will be ready for the passage of trains
in a very few days. This completes a direct
line of railroad from Mobile, Alabama, to
Portland, Maine. The company also propose
pushing the building of the road from Alex
andria to Fredericksburg, which will shorten
the distance hence to Richmond about seventy
miles.
In a few days regular passenger trains will
be ran between Washington and Alexandria
every half hour: and pissengers will be able
to ride from Penn'a avenue to King street, Al
exandria, in IS minutes, and at a cheap rate of
lare.
Fibi.?Yesterday afternoon, the stables at
tached to the residence of Dr. Jos. Walsh, on
? street south, tstweenGth and 7th streets east,
wore destroyed by Are, as is supposed, from
incendiarism. The firemen were not on the
spot, and reiused to take the apparatus from
the houses; but some of the police brought up
the Anacostia suction and reel. Some of the
Franklin members also carried down a real,
but by the time they had got to the ground the
danger v as over, the police and neighbors hav
ing prevented the spread of the flames by tear
ing down the fencing. It the apparatus had
been got out in time there would have been
little or no loss; and as it wfLs there was a loss
of about 825U?the horses and harness having
been saved.
Gbovbb'8- Theater will be re-opened on
Wednesday evening next, for a term of two
weeks, under the auspices of Mr. S. W. Glenn,
who has effected an arrangement with Mr.
