The rebels do not lack for money, such as
it is. Their bogus government issues in un-
limited quantity what are called Confederate
Treasury Notes, which pass as currency from
necessity, but cannot be converted into coin ex-
ccpt at n ruinous sacrifice. The value Of this
currency may be learned from the reading of the
bills, which is as follows;

No one has manifested more delight at the

Senator Andy johnson Of Tennessee, and
Emerson E,heridge, Clerk of the House of
Representatives. They have been busy ex-
planning to Senators and Representatives the
strategic importance of the acquisition of
Forts Henry and Donelson. The possession
of these defences not only cuts of the COM
munication between Bowling Green and Co.
lumbus, but opens to Federal authority and
protection tier of counties extending along
the Tennessee river to Mississippiland Alaba-

Of Union men are still loyal and ready, il

of the old Government, or any measure
which in the .remotest degree tends IN that
direction. For one, I shall never consent

The TENNESSEE RIvER.-The geography
of the Tennessee river, on which we have
now fairly begun military operations as re-
CARDS the rebellion, is remarkable From
Paducah, at its confluence with the Ohio. we
ascend It's stream, through the State of Ken
lucky, to the Tennessee line. passing in our
course through that part OF Kentucky where
alone the rebel sentiment predominates
thence following the river, we sweep across
the entire State of Tennesse, from North to
South then, still pursuing the stream, we
pass through almost the entire State OF Ala
bama from West to East, till once again en-.
tering Tennessee, we find ourselves among
the loyal patriots OF the Cumberland Noun
tains---baving traced distance of over l,25(
miles, and having cut deep down into The
huge body of rebellion. In our progress

doubtedly form one of the most importan

BURNSIDE AT ROANOKE lsLANp.-We
have nothing bu rumors Of Gen. Burnside's
operations at Roanoke Island, coming from
rebel sources. Thev indicate a severe con-
test, but substantial success on the Union
side. The attack begun on Friday morning,
and was said TO be continuing on Saturday
afternoon. The rebels of Norfolk, il is said,
were in possession of additional intelligence,
which they withhed---,hat is, we presume,
they had learned that the capture of the
place by Gen. Burnside had either been ac-
complished, or was certain. We infer this
from the fact that these reports claim abso.
lutely no advantage for the rebels in the
fight, while rhey admit that two of their gun
boats had been SUNK by the federals.
These mesgre hints indicate, as we have
said, a very severe contest. That was what
was expected by Gen. Burnside. who made
his preparations for two days fight. Rebel
deserters have stated that Roanoke Island
was TO be defended by three sand batteries
and some 5000 men, aided by eleven little
gun-boats. Gen. Wise commands in the vi
entity. The rebel authorities have now hau
three weeks TO perfect their defences and to
pour in troops and ordnance. II they have
not succeeded in holding their ground, it is
either because they have not the means at
command, or not the practical generalship
to turn them to good account. In either
event, Gen. Bur2side's success there settles
the whole question, by unlocking the two
sounds, the rear approach 10 Norfolk, and
the access to the whole eastern line OF rail
way communications with Manassas When
Roanoke Island gives way--for it is the
strongest point in the whole section-the
rebels have nothing 10 DO but TO scatter for
safety, md to leave Gen. Burnside to grasp
all the objects Of his expadition. But We
ought to bave some authentic accounts of hi,
