Special to the Times:
The latest news is up to I0:4O this even
Jog from Grant is most satisfactory.
Generals Thomas and Sherman have
got well ahead.
The fighting in our immediate front has
lasted all day long. At every point along
the line we have forced the rebels back
ward.
We have news from the Army of the
Potomac up TO 3 P. N.
Absent officers Of the Army of the Poto-
mac may be interested to know that seye-
raj changes Of positions Of army oJrPs
have been made. .- -t
fredericksburg Heights ere held By one
division of Ewells corps, which is the ex-
treme right Of the rebel army.
Lees left rests near Madison Court
House, on this side of the Rapidsn. His
force is mostly cavalry.
The rebel army seem to have no faith
at al. III . -- /
We will advance and fight before May
next, for it is manifestly preparing winter
quarters az or near GordOnsVille. 1t is
at present stretched from that point to
some point on the Richmond and Freder-
icksburg road, probably Hanover juno
ton.
The Worlds dispatch dated Hesdquar-
ters Army Of the Potomac, November q,
says: No changes have yet been made.
All is quiet aleng the RapidaD, and our
brilliant expectations Of an advance as
yet unrealized. Itrained all day, andthis
may have delayed sn advance.
Army circles in town are somewhat sgi-
tated over Tumors concerning well known
commissary off ,ial A court Of inquiry
will probably be ordered.
The Tribune's dispatch dated Washing
ton, 24th, says Incorrect statements put
! forth with regard to estimates for the fs-
cal year ending June Both, 1865. The as
sertion that the aggregate will be 81 200,
| 600 600 is very wide from truth, and ix-
ing it at $4,000 900 is also too large.
The heaviest items in estimate are the
War and Navy Departments. The former
foot up 1886, ,594, ,602. The latter about
| $40 600, ,O00 II the estimates Of the 9TH
er Departments are the same IS last year
the aggregate will but little exceed $780,
OO0, 1000.
The Herald has the following, dated
Washington, 24th, At midnight the War
department mas TeCclNeu tHlo 6NculuB
dispatches from Grant at Chattanooga,
which are Of most important and cheering
character.
The engagement in ourimmediate front,
an secount Of the c1mmenoement was re-
ceived yesterday, has continued through
out the entire day. The rebels, though
sturdily resisting our advance, has been
gradually giving way.
Nothing further is heard from Burn
side, but the success Of this movement is
expected speedily to relieve him from the
pressure Of the rebel columns, Grants sd-
vance compelling them to retreat 10 pre-
vent their capture or destruction
The Herald has the following from the
| Army os the Potomac to the oath:
Ere this can reach you We shall probably
have fought severe battle, or crossed the
Rapidsn, or perhaps both. As military
movements are always subject TO delay s
and contingencies, it would not te proper
for me al this time to enter into any details
Of the plan Of the campaign. Every body
is hopeful and confident OF the success Of
Mesdes plans, and though they don't coin
eide fully with views l have heard express
ed, they are perhaps the best that could be
adopted, keeping in view the necessity SO
urgently eDjoiDed by the authorities in the
War Office Of covering Washington.
