Mnurx and the Copperheads

Maury and the COpperheads.
The late Union successes have greatly dis
turbed the secessionists residing in Europe,
spondeney. Their sympathizing European
friends have grown cool and expressed Il be-
lief that the ''confederacy" cannot maintain
itself; and the confederate loan has gone down
towards the limbo OF worthless promises to
paw. Some of the traitors, however, have
made desperate efforts to maintain their
ground and persuade Europe that all is well
with their bad cause. One of the most nota-
bic of these efforts of desperation is that of
M. F. Maury, formerly known as Lieut.. Maui
ry, who has written a long letter to the Lon
don Times to show that ''the prospects of the
confederate cause were never brighter than at
the present time"
In this letter Maury enumerates reasons
why the prospects of the traitors ''were never
brighter" and represents that the Union sue.
cesses have in reality done the Union cause
no good and the rebels no harm. The opening
of the Mississippi, he says. does nothing for
terest of the northwest in the war. But his
strongest reason for encouragement is found
in the activity and aim of the ''peace men"
or copperheads at the north. In stating this
ground of his hope, he dilates earnestly, and
speaks with the greatest confidence. We
quote few paragraphs -
''0ther agents have to be called into play.
What are they? Let us inquire. They are
divisions in the camp of the enemy, diSsen-
siOns among the people of the north. There
is already peace party there. Al the em5ar-
raSSmentS ruth lChich that party can surround

to the federal government. NeW York is be-
coming the champion of states riqIts in the
north, and TO that ertent is taking southern

expedient to unmuzzle the press in New York
and deemed it prudent to give vent to free
speech there, but he is evidently afraid to en-

WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-Hhe following is
from the Richmond Whg:-
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Sept Sit was stated
yesterday by city contemporary that Knox
vile was evacuated by our troops last Mon
day, and occupied the following day by the
forces Of the enemy. We do not know upon
what authority this report was based, and are
unable to learn anything to confirm it.
II true, the natural presumption would
be that the Withdrawal of our troops was II
strategic movement, and it would not be fair
to pass Judgment, before we know what the
strategy and what the result were. w need
not say that the permanent occupation of
Knoxville would be heavy blow to us, and
we cannot believe it will be allowed. Further
intelligence from that point and Chattanooga
is awaited with anxiety.
4 Sad MiShap.-About two o'clock this
morning the steamer Sumner Bradford was
transporting parts of the 23d Georgia, the
6lst North Carolina, and both South Carolina
volunteers from one position in Charleston
harbor to another, she was fired at by one of
the batteries on Sulliyan's Island owing to Il
misapprehension of her character, and several
soldiers were Immediately killed. Others
took to the water, and it is found that some of
them were drowned. The great body of
them were got into position Of safety.

The Operations Near Chattanooga.

New YORK, Sept. S.-Letters from General
Rosecrans' army to the Herald give interest
ing accounts of the movements against Chat
tanooga The letters state that little doubt
need be entertained that Chattanooga will be
in our hands within fortnight after we shall
have crossed the Tennessee river, and its
capture is anticipated without a struggle over
the extensive works which guard the northern
approaches.
The force defending Chattanooga is Bragg's
old army of two corps, and two divisions from
JohnsOn's army. A. p. Hill commands Har-
dee's forces, the latter being dismissed. When
the army left Murfreesboro to attack Bragg at
the Gap, it was estimated that he Bragg
had, in round numbers, 100000 men. He lost
2400 by capture.
The number of deserters is simply incalcu-
liable. l have no doubt he (Bragg) has lost
10000 since his retreat begun. This conclu-
sion is to be found in the books of the pro-
vost marshal general. The assistant provost
marshal says the number of deserters coming
| in since July LIST, reaches 5000. The greater
part of these are paroled to go home north,
and are never likely 10 see rebeldom again
till the war is over.
