a. pglln, Dec. % communication WAS 70.
cciyod from the Lord Lieutenant appointing
Dec. 90, for the reception Of m address on the
subject Of distress in tho west Of ireland.
Alderman RENNoLDs said he deeply regretted
10 find that Sir RonERT PREr, in lotter rccciy-
od by the Lord Mayor some time ago stated that
ho had boen advised that the workhousos would
be sufficient 10 meet the pressure Of pluporism.
Now, the sccounts frcm the provinces every day
showed that there was fearful priyation which
the workhou5es could not meet-the want Of
fuel. At Galway, Tuam, Bllinrobe Csstlobar,
and other places meetings Of tho inhabitants
had been held to provide funds for tho purchase
of fuel for the poor. lie was quito certain that
before January expired a fuel and food famine
would bo running together, and ho was also
certain that the woIkhouses would bo unable to
meet tho demands made upon them.
Dr. GRAY stated that tho Government were
mistaken with respect to tho condition of the
country and tho views expressed by those who
were well acquainted with tho state OF the peo-
pie. The class whose cause was urged was not
merely the absolutely dostituto-the class that
neither had house, home, nor sholter-but II was
the class comprising those who, under orlin-
ary circumstances, would rank as well to 10,
comfortable farmers, but who wee now, from
the destruction Of their crops, AMI other causes,
reduced TO a state Of great necessity. If such
men went into the workhou-e, they abandoned
their homes and their fsmilies-they abind jned
all hope Of ever being Of an independent, self
supporting people, and they became, in fact,
permanent charges upon the public.
A longthenod discussion eusuod in which
statements were made respecting the inclli 'ien-
cy Of cXisting modes Of rolof to meet the in
crostine distress, whom the matter was laid over
to await the action Of the new Lord Mayor, who
was to assume office on January first.

20, Ner.bern K~lreinia.

An interval Of iour days has now elapsed
since the date Of our last sdvices from the seat
OF wal, and though the u.most anxiety pervades
inc community to obtain tae details Of the late
bsttle, and 70 ascertain The situation of affairs.
there is no apprehension Of any reverse or check
to our victorious arms but, on the contrary, a
confident belief Is entertained that ia a few DAYS
the tidings viii be received Of the entrance of
orr troops into Maryland, aud the flight OfIin-
coin from Washington.
Letters and passengers by the Central train
last evening, state that General Ewell is dead,
bat we. are still hopeful that this Is an error.
General Stuart's estimate Of the deal on the
field is that there are eight Yankees 70 one Con
fsderate. Burnside ana staff are reported cap
tured. The artillery captured by our men is be-
tween che hundred and fifty and two hundred
pieces. Our troops, at last accounts, were occu-
pying Fairfax Court House, and points some
distance beyond.
Dr.. Gsliaher, an Independent fighter, who has
done good service on the front Of our lines, for
some time, is among the killed.
About i've hundred of our men were captured
by the enemy. They were mostly the s~trsgglers
and conYalescents returning to their regiments,
who were taking a short cut by way Of the rsil
read, instead OF by the county road from Gull
pepeT Court House.
All accounts concur in representing the rOut
of the enemy TO have been moro complete than
that Of the 2lst July, 1861. It IS said that they
are disorganizsd and dsm0ralzed
A letter from an officer in our army says {:
&" The enemy were whipped off the feld with
great slaughter, and many guns ware taken
They ran so heetly in some parts of the field
that General jackson, who was ordered to press
them, replied they were too fast for him.

There arc two great reasons why our armies
should drive the invaders from Tennessee, Ken
tucky srd Missouri, and these should operate 10
induce every exsraon to do 50 at the earliest
monent One is-and il is, perhaps, secondary
under the cireumstsncos-thst cur forces can
and VIII be reinforced by one hundred thousand
stoat hearts from the States named, just as soon
as they are at liberty to act They are with US
in sentiment, and only need to become free
agents to Join our battle standard But the par
amount reason. is the supplies that could be 50
easily obtained were those great producing
States In our possession. They are the provision
States Of the ConfsisFaey, and from them our
entire armies can be subsisted We need them,
and must have themi sndt to reap the full benefit
Of their redemption we should have them soon.
Delay must be avoided, and public eensu1e viii
fal heavily upon any of our military leaders who
may be implicated IN pOstponing the hour when
the prizes are to come into our possession.

- Between four and 6ge thousand of our
exchanged prisoners arrived from above yester-
day. They were landed from the Federal trans
ports Champion, Chancellor, Emerald aad J S.
Prngle, just below Whites plantation, where
the mortar boats eff the upper feet used to lie in
shslhng the city. From this point they walked
across 90 the terry landing, a distance of one
mile, and we're crossed TO this side by the ferry
boat. After the ferry had made two trips over,
a strong gale sPrarg up, accompanid by a
heavy rain, which compelled the boat to lay up
for sometime.
After the storm was over, she renewed her
trips, and was sill bringing troops over at q late
hour in the evening. The soldiers are from
camps M0rton and Chase. Some were captured
at Fort Henry, others ct Fort Donelson, Island
No. 10, etc. We noticed several members of
Raam's cavalry among them, who were taken
while Eith Morgan, ia Kentucky. The prison
ers at Camp Douglas are expected TO be along
in the course OF a week-FieksJrg Hlig, IIE.

The Knoxville correspondent Of The Mobile
Macs writes the following, which is the latest
we have of the situation Of affairs at Cumber-
land Gap.
The latest news Of the " situation 50 of the
abolition army in Cumberland Gap, Is to the
Sd inst. On that day two deserters made their
escape and reached our lines. They cisin to be
from louisville, Yirgiuis, and stsie that they
were taken prisoners by the "Yanks two
months ago, and forced to enlist TO avoid I'M
prisOnment, being threatened to be sent to Camp
Chase. They made the following statement,
which is considered reliable:
The forcs in the Gap consists of twelve regi-
ments OF infantry. Some of the infantry had
left, and all the cavalry, except some eight or
ten. They have great quantities Of ammunition,
but their stock Of provisions was very low, and
the men were living on less than half Tations.
The commisssTy supplies were reduced to thirty
barrels of -four, a few Joints of bacon, and some
boxes of worm-eeten crackers. The men com-
planned very much Il of hunger. They had killed
sl the mich cows and sucking sows aud tho,
pigs thet they could find in their lines. Ihey
ale aware that the Gap has been lett open IN the
rear, BY the road to BarboUrsviile. But they
feel like the rat in the trap, which is only opened
to permit escape into the jaws Of death.
The enemy is closely watched, and as 1t Is
impossible for them to hold out much longer,
thew must soon try to effect their escape, when
our troops will pounce upon them. The pos
session of the Gap by our forces, is, at tais time,
of the most vital Importance to Us, it being the
key to Kentucky. We must held the Gap in
order to retain possession Of kentucky, for in
case we are obliged to fall back, we must supply
and feed our army from East Tennessee. But if
we are successful, we can obtain sufficient sup
plies from Lexington. Under these circum- !
stances we can afford to let Yankee Morgan es-
caue with bis starving abolitiOnists. 1 hoped,
ere this. to have informed you Of their surrender,
that event, or the evacuation Of the Gap,
cannot be tar of.
