een his forces and those of General Early From Georgia. At last accounts the shelling of Atlanta continued with unabated vigor. The enemy was massing his troops on the left, but making no effort to extend his right. It seems not to be Sherman's intention to attempt to carry our works by assault, but rather to make a movement around, and endeavor to take Atlanta in the rear. This is what the Yankees call the "pot- hook" method. We have no doubt that General Hood is fully awake to tho take Atlanta in the rear. This is what the Yankees call the "pot- hook" method. We have no doubt that General Hood is fully awake to the enemy's plans, and will meet them successfully when the day of trial comes. Sherman and Thomas both telegraphed to Washington that Atlanta would be in their possession before the close of this (last) week; but as the city still stands, hurling defiance at the foe, they will have to telegraph again that they were slightly mistaken in their calculations.

The news. The fall of Columbia. Columbia has fallen. Sherman marched into and took possession of the city yesterday morning. This intelligence was communicated yesterday by General Beauregn, which, we think likely, is already in process of execution. It is impossible to say whither Sherman will next direct his columns. The general opinion is, that he will go to Charleston and establby the enemy. This we do not believe. We have reason to feel assured that nearly the whole of Sherman's army is together at Columbia, and that the report that Schofield was advancing on Augusta wast is the impression in the Yankee army that this force is to be sent to Newbern or to reinforce Sherman. Sherman does not want reinforcements; Terry, at Wilmington may require more. General JohSherman does not want reinforcements; Terry, at Wilmington may require more. General Johnston's report.
