cradle enlargement. The subject is one that
should receive careful consideration, and l
would suggest that authority be given to des-
ignate and procure one or more suitable loca-
tions.
We are now constructing number of gun
boats by contract on the western waters, and
l would suggest that recent experience and
the vast resources in iron and other capabili-
ties of the west, and the radical change in ma
val architecture, demonstrate the propriety of
establishing a navy yard, foundry, and shops,
at some point in the valley of the Mississippi.
Such a yard, and its attendant establish
ments, would possess many advantages, and
is becoming necessity. l commend it to
your attention, with the other subject alluded
to in this communication.
l have the honor to be,
Very respectfully,
your obedient servant,
GIDEON WELLEs.

In response to e petition from the citizens Of
Memphis, asking that the liquor saloons be
closed. Gen. SHERMAN has placed the matter
in the hands Of the mayor and council, which
places the latter in a position Of some deicacy.
The Bulletin says;
The people of Memphis do not desire to have
their city government supported by a system so
vicious. Bat this is not the only aspect of the
case. Licenses have been granted, and the first
monthly iustallment imposed upon each retailer
of liquor has been paid and council cannot turn
round upon the liquor dealer and revoke his
license without returning the money paid for
the une1pired term of the license. TO this we
add that we are informed By a member Of the
board Of aldermen, that if the board should re-
fuse to allow licenses to sell liquor to be issued,
parties engaged IN that business could obtain
State licenses and sell on that authority, with
out any power on the part of the mayor and al
dermen to prevent such q step.
The precise number of persons having the
city's license to carry on their business is one
hundred and ffy-fve, and It is supposed amuch
greater number are prosecuting it iIicitly. There
ought to be some remedy. Among the arrests
on Wednesday night last was a firm doing bus
mess in this city, who are charged with snug
Cling salt through the woods to Mississippi. No
names are given.
The new jail on Adams street, between Second
and Third, viii be occupied by the city on the
29th- The station house is removed there, and
there the recorders court is to be held.
In the recorders court on Tuesday last there
we're seventeen cases, and sixty-nine dollars
were inflicted in fines. The cases were Of the
ordinary kind, mostly Drunkenness with the e;
eeteras.
The Bulletin says: Rumors are rife which
would lead to an expectation of warm work in
the war business, in the neighborhOod south OF
US, within a few days.
RUMORs-There were some rather startling
rumors aaoet yesterday, of military operations
in our vicinity. Our military authorities have
no intelligence Of the capture of an Illinois regi-
ment at Germantown on Wednesday. 1t IS
thought that the assertion that Forests brigade
and a portion Of Prices troops are moving to a
position above US on the river is %groundless, as
the feet at Helena could soon send g~unbOats to
shell out any force lying on the river bank, and
that feet will soon be strengthened by the al
dition Of the formidable Passport, the two gun.

Governor HARRIS has issued a general order
at Chattanooga, stating that be has been com
PEELED to suspend all efforts to organize a State
corps, on account of the necessity Of arming
our gallant troops who have lstely returned from
Northern prisons, which renders it impossible to
procure arms for 8 State force. The troops

ranks of the Tennessee regiments. Governor
HARRIS has shown great zeal and activity in
his efforts 70 raise 8 State military force, and
which has been found to be impracticable, fr
many reasons, and among others, that it conflicts
with the Confederate organization. We publish

Up to this writing we have no reliable or sat
istsctory information either by mail or telegraph,
as to the status of affairs in Virginia. Specu-
lating on the subject, the Mobile EVeHiag Ne5os,
Of Saturday, seems to think that the news, as
far as received. indicates the probability that the
generalship Of LEE and Stonewall JACKSON has
cut off PoPR and MCCLELLAN from their retreat
on the Potomac at Washington, and that these
two braggart generals have been compelled to
turn short to the right and come down again
toward the Rappahannock, at Fredericksburg
and the Potomac at Aqua creek
Among the most notabls events OF the war,
continues the Meas, must be reckoned this forced
retreat Of the great Federal army, with the hot
aud untiring pursuit of the Southern forces. II
is the termination and result of the famous inva-
sion of Virginia for the capture of Richmond.
undertaken by q force Of three hundred thousand
men in sl, reckoning those who invaded the
Shenandoah valley and those with MCCLELLAN
first and last. Having succeeded in penetrating
within sight Of the Confederate capital, they
have been defeated at all points, and their com
bined remnants are now fleeing before our victo-
rious forces, and desperately striving to saw
themselves and shield their own capital, if pos
sible, from the peril of capture, with which they
lately menaced the Southern city.
Whether a decisive battleis fought or not, the
disastrous and demoraising fight Of the enemy
leaves them whipped, and thrown as completely
on the defensive as MCCLELLAN was when hi

correspondent of q Philadelphia paper, STATES on
the morning Of the 2lst, the rebels opened a
battery on our center, and continued vigorously
to throw shot and she'll for several hours.
4 little higher up il was discovered that the
enemy had, during tho night, erected q Drdge
over the river.
At this point the most brilliant and successful
affair Of the day is reported to hsye occurred
In the vicinity OF this bridge was one OF Gen.
Sigel's batteries, on which the rebels opened 8
brisk FIRE, to which our battery replied with
spirit. Ia a little while our fire slackened and
then ceased, the battery having been apparently
silsnced or withdrawn.
Thee rebel regiments now rushed across the
bridge, and Sigel offered no opposition. Every
thing seemed favorable, but the scene soon
changed. No sooner had they crossed than
SigsI opened his battery upon the bridge. The
fourth shot completely demolishedit and at
the same time a deadly fire Of musketry as
sailed the rebels il front.
Their retreat cut of-nO hope left-a few
shots from our battery-a charge, and they are
ours. Not man escaped. Nearly two thou
sand are said to have been captured, and about
four hundred killed and wounded.
The enemy having failed in this, now hurled
forward their forces, and stToYe to Outisnk Sigsl
