ROCHESTER, N. Y., DECEMBER 24, 1864. 
THE NEWS-A REVIEW. 
Wit h ' no little feelings of gratit ude t o an 
our soldier?, and to all citizen? engaged in up¬ 
holding the rights guarantied to us by an hon¬ 
ored ancestry, do we announce, in this, the last 
number of the Run ai. for 1.801, that success still 
attends the Army in the field, and the Navy on 
the ocean and inland waters. 
Four years ago the 20th of the present month, 
the minions of the satrap of South Carolina de¬ 
clared that integral part of the American Union 
an independent State; that the “mudsills” of 
the free North were Inferior to themselves; that 
freedom of person, speech, of the press, was 
incompatible with, and dangerous to, the pro¬ 
gressive ideas of gentlemen, From one small, 
rebellious “ star ” a constellationof fourteen stars 
were grouped together, and made war upon the 
whole planetary system of the Uniou. A 
mighty convulsion of nature (human) has shook 
the great body politic from that memorable 
day to the present time; but, like the hopes of 
the Christian “founded upon a rock,” the vibra¬ 
tions and oscillations have not severed the ties 
which were cemented by the blood of revolu¬ 
tionary heroes when this most remarkable 
governmental structure was reared under the 
eyes of ‘Washington and Hancock. To-day 
it stands a proud monument over the graves of 
all but five of those immortal patriots who 
were instrumental in its erection. To-day it 
stands the "Eighth Wonder of the Universe” 
in the eyes of foreign governments, a beacon 
light to human progress—the protector of the 
weak, the upholder of the down-trodden. 
With pride can \vn point to such a Govern¬ 
ment as the guiding-star to successf ul enter- 
prizes among the great family or nations; and 
with no less satisfaction do we portray to ihe 
gaze of the “ powers that be” of the Old World, 
the military prowess of those engaged in “ bloody 
strife.” All the way dow r n from the Lieuten¬ 
ant-General to the private, the world may see 
such skill, perseverance and indomitable cour¬ 
age and enterprise as bespeaks success without 
a perad venture. Varied as has been the nat ure 
of the duties of the soldier, he seemed never »t 
a loss to “turn everything to account” where 
circumstances would warraut tho putting into 
requisition the fertile brain so universally pos¬ 
sessed by all native dwellers in Yankee laud. 
However a portion of the readers of the 
Rural, may regard the re-election of President 
Lincoln, one thing is certain, as all will 
agree who “ read the papers,” that the military 
skies are bright and brightening all over the 
“seats of war” throughout the land. The 
rebellion, if it Is not on its “last legs,” is so 
crippled that the great hydra-headed monster is 
bowed with its face to mother earth, and so 
weijry of the weighty matters upon its back, 
that even Canada is appealed to in the death 
throes for help, — help in any shape, — the 
approval of theft, arson, murder —the laying 
whole cities in ashes, and the getting up an em¬ 
broilment with her next-door neighbor. But 
all this will not do. The moneyed interest of 
Queen Victoria’s loyal subjects will revolt at 
any such proceeding, and President Davis’ 
cherished hopes will be blighted. 
While the National Legislators are in session 
providing “ ways and means’’ to mete out justice 
to tho rebels, Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, 
Thomas, and a host of other able and distin¬ 
guished Generals, are keeping tho “ ball rolling” 
in the fiold. The ocean and our rivers teem 
with a Navy of uearly seven hundred vessels, 
making great havoc among the blockade run¬ 
ners and the iuternal resources of the enemy; 
and from all these indications of a collapse, we 
cannot seo how the rebellion can much longer 
exist with the least prospect of coming out of 
the contest victorious. We give such war news 
this week in a very condensed form, as wo have 
room for, hoping and believing that before 
another issue of tho Rural, the “glad tidings” 
will eomo from the South of a crowning closo to 
the campaign of 1801. 
We reached Savannah three days ago: but 
now we have McAllister we can go ahead. 
We have already captured two gunboats on the 
Savannah River and prevented their gunboats 
from coming down. 
1 estimate the population at 25,000, and tho 
garrison at fifteen thousand. (Jen. Hardee com¬ 
mands. 
We have not, lost a wtigon on the trip; but 
havegathered in a large supply of negroes, mules, 
horses, Ac. Our teams arrived in far better con¬ 
dition than t hey were in when we started. My 
first duty will be to clear the army of surplus 
negroes, mules and horses. 
we have utterly destroyed over two hun¬ 
dred miles of rails, and consumed stores and 
provisions that were essential to Lee’s and 
Hood’s armies. 
The quick work made with McAlLtster, and 
the opening of communication with our fleet, 
and the consequent independence for supplies, 
dissipates all tneir boasted threats to head me off 
and starve the army. 1 regard Savannah as 
already gained. 
W. T. Sherman, Maj.-Geu. 
Richmond papers admit that Savannah must 
soon fall. 
A great battle has been fought near Nashville, 
(the 16th,) and a great Union victory has again 
been won by General Thomas. Hood’s army is rep¬ 
resented as nearly “used up,” and flying be¬ 
fore the invincible Army of the Tennessee. 
The loss of the rebels is represented as being 
very severe in killed and wounded. 
Tho enemy lost at least 0,000 prisoners. Some 
30 or 40 pieces of artillery were also captured 
and 7,000 small arms. General Thomas in his 
official dispatches, represent his losses as very 
small. 
Advices from Nashville of December 10, say 
our forces are still advancing. This morningjit 
about 8 o’clock they captured a body of about 
three thousand rebel prisoners, among them 
one General aud a number of commissioned offi¬ 
cers. 
Mr. Grimes, of Iowa, has introduced into the 
Senate a bill to create the rank of Vice Admiral 
in the Navy. 
On Friday evening, the 16th, the rebels at¬ 
tacked Gen. Ferrero’s lines at Bermuda II undred, 
but were repulsed. Five rebel gunboats and 
two rams were observed lying under the guns 
of Fort IiarliDg. 
The Richmond Enquirer has an editorial in 
favor of armiug the slaves, and states that Gen. 
Lee sanctions the scheme. 
Mr. Doolittle, of Wisconsin, has introduced 
into the Senate a bill authorizing the President 
to expend $12,000,000 in building floating bat¬ 
teries and fortifications to protect the lakes from 
piratical expeditions organized in Canada. 
Secretary Stanton’s official informs us that 
the President has Issued a call for 300,000 troops 
to till the deficiency caused by the credits al¬ 
lowed on the last draft. 
®t)c Keros <&on5mser. 
— Five thousand persons perished by tho cyclone In 
Calcutta. 
Secretary Stanton says, December 17, 
that dispatches have lieen received to-day from 
Gen. Foster, who had a personal interview on 
the morning of Wednesday, the 13th inst., with 
Gen. Sherman at Fort McAllister, which had 
been taken by assault on the proceeding day. 
Savannah was closely besieged, and its captuie 
with the rebel forces there was confidently ex¬ 
pected. It was to be summoned to surrender in 
two days, and if not surrendered, Sherman 
would open his batteries upon it. 
Gen. Foster reports that Sherman’s army la 
in splendid condition, having lived on its march 
on the “ ttirkies, chickens, sweet potatoes and 
other good things of the riohest partof Georgia.” 
The following “ official ” from General Sher¬ 
man was received at the War Department on 
the 18th lust: 
OSBAIS.VW SOUND, ON liOXitD DAMIdCIJON, , 
Dw. 12—11 o’clock U. M. 1 
Today at f> P. M. Gen. Hazeu’s division of 
the 15th corps carried Foil McAllister bv as- 
sult, capturing its entre garrison and stores. 
This opened to us Ossabaw Sound, and 1 pushed 
down to this gunboat to eomumuicate with the 
ileet. 
Before opening communications, we had 
completely destroyed all the railroads leading 
to Savannah and completely Invested the city. 
The left is on the Savannah three miles above 
the eity, and the right on the Ogecchce, at 
King’s bridge. 
Tho army is in Hplendid order and equal to 
anything.

CLOSING NOTICES, REMINDERS, &c. 
Stint * to Volume A V. — This being No. 53 
completes Vol. XV of the Rural. As there are 53 
Saturdays this year, and as we wish to have our next 
volume commence with 1885, we shall issue no paper 
next week, but occupy the time In arranging newtype, 
&c., and otherwise “ making readyfor the new vol- 
i me. Of course none <4 our subscribers will object 
to this arrangement, as certainly none of them will 
expect us to publish an extra number at, the present 
cost of paper, printing, etc. 
The Title Pag-c. and Mntlex^ given herewith, 
conipel us to omit several departments, abridge other?, 
and defer some two columns of advertisement»—hut 
as the Index is indlspimsablc, especially to the thou¬ 
sands who preserve the Rural for future reference, no 
one can reasonably object. H.v a glruce, it will bo seen 
that the Index, though mainly comprising practical 
and useful matter?, indicates that the volume contains 
a vast amount aud variety of vatu able reading, and 
mnny appropriate and handsome eugravlngs. We 
reckon no subscriber can .lastly complain that helms 
not this year obtained full “ value received ” for his or 
her money. 
/jncournglmr. — The well-lined letters we are 
receiving now a-days indicate that a good many poop'd 
tUink the Rural New Yoiikkr is not extravagant in 
asking $3 for fifty-two visits—considering present pri¬ 
ces of pork, potatoes, baiter, etc. We have a host of 
encouraging letters, but will only quote this brief one 
from J. W. McKay of Erie Co-, Pa.“ Inclosed find 
three dollars for the Rural JSkwYorkeh another 
year, which I consider very cheap these times, the 
opinion of your friend of Columbia Co., N. Y., to the 
contrary notwithstanding. Your reply fo him [in Ru¬
