NEW YORK, Barr. 26, Kamm
Admiral Milne, in the flagship Nile, left Halifax
on the 24th inst. for New York.
The steamer Juno has been captured.
Advices from General Rosecrans to the 24th inst. re-
port that the Confederates are in force in his front.
The Confederate infantry are massed in Chicka-
mauga Creek and Valley. It is rumoured that
Sherman's corps of Grant's army joined Rosecrans
on the 23rd inst. Great anxiety is still felt for the
safety of General Burnside. The opinion prevails
that he will be cut off if he attempts to reinforce
Rosecrans. A Confederate column has crossed
the Missionary Ridge, it was supposed to intercept
Burnside. The press correspondents represent
the battle of the 19th instant as a drawn battle,
but in the engagement of the 20th Rosecrans
suffered a d•sastrous defeat. His left and right
were completely routed, and his retreat to Rose-
ville was conducted in g..eat disorder. The troops
became disorganised, immense numbers running to
the rear after the retreat.

Baird's, Nagley's, Reynolds', Brennon's, and
Harker's divisions alone retained cohesiveness,
and took a position along the base of
the Missionary Mountains for another fight,
and held their ground against another
attack by Polk's corps until the Con-
federates abandoned the contest. It is estimated
that Rosecrans lost 50 cannon and 10,000 men
killed, wounded, and missing, besides a large
amount of material.
Unless Rosecrans received prompt reinforcements
it was feared he would be flanked and compelled to
retreat across the Tennessee River.

The Confederate generals Preston, Smith, Hood,
Deshler, and Helm are killed, and Adams, Gregg,
and Brown wounded.

The Southern journals think that if General Rose-
crane is permitted to hold Chattanooga General
Bragg's victory will be without profit.
The accounts are conflicting concerning the num-
ber of General Lee's troops who were with Bragg ;
but it is believed that General 14313'8 army has not
been very materially weakened.
The news from General Meade's army is meagre ;
nothing positive being known concerning the
prospects of an early engagement on the Rapidru,
or of General Meade's intentions.

Considerable cavalry skirmishing has taken place
near Madison Court House.

General White's Confederate eavaly have lren
marauding In Maryland.
The Southern journals represent the armies upon
the Rapidan in line of battle with;n a few miles of
each other. The Confederates hold all fords of the
Rapidan in force.
The Confederates are reported to be threatening
the Federal lines in North Carolina.

2,000 of General Burnside's troops were repulsed
in an attack upon Zollicoffer, in Tennessee.
The Russian flag-ship Alexander Newsky, Ad-
miral Lae:Asti, with four other Russian men-of-
war, have anchored in New York harbour. It is
rumoured they will remain there all the winter.
The press urge that a hospitable welcome be
given to the Russian officers.
