NEWS OF The DAY.
A rebellion has broken out in North
eastern Georgia against the rebels. A
battle vas fought, in which the insur-
gents ere reported to have won a vie
tory.
Our Vicksburg dispatches describe
the running of the blockade at that
point by the ram Queen Of the West.
She started on her perilous voyage at
five in the morning of the Sd, and
though hot fire from the enemy's
heavie,t guns was poured upon her,
and sh, delayed to butt q rebel steamer
which ay under the bank, and was bit
twelve times, nobody on board was
hurt. Other rams, it is stated, will
soon follow, and troops will be landed
south OF Vicksburg, and the communi-
cation If the city with Louisiana be
thus cutoff The rebel transports in
the Ouashita and Red rivers will also
be ATTACHED.
The gunbost Glide was destroyed
BY FIRE, At Cairo, on Saturday.
Letters lately received from our Con-
sulates at Monterey and Matamoras,
confirm the report that there are large
numbers of Union refugees near the
border, waiting for an invasion of
Texas to Join the Federal army
There are one thousand near the border,
reported by th, Vice Consul at Mon
terey, and acc@sions are being made
daily, in consequence Of the brutal
treatment pradiced on the Unionists
by the Confederate officers. Up the
river from Mahmoras the force OF refu-
gees is very lsge, thirteen hundred of
whom are wellarmed and mounted.
1t is reporta that the rebels at Port
Hudson receive all their supplies and
provisions by -ay of Red river. They
are busily engaged in razeeing two
river boats, fol the purpose of convert
ing one into heavy floating battery,
and the other INTO gunboat. Orders
have been issied for the burning of all
the steamers plying between there and
Red river, slpuld our forces succeed in
capturing Pct Hudson.

EThe withdrawal Of a portion Of
the Federal forces from the Kanawha
Valley, has afforded grounds for any
number of rumors relative to rebel
raids, and prospective retreat of the
Union troops from that delectable re-
gion. Many timid souls are again pre-
dicting-an attack on Gallipolis. which
predictions are taken up and industri-
eusly circulated by others, to whom the
ful6llment of all such prophesies would
be highly acceptable.
A yaid into the Valley of Kanawha
IN September, with solid roads, forage
and supplies in abundance, and rivers
fOrdable at all points, is quite differ
ent affair from one made in February,
roads impossible on account Of mud,
country bare of supplies. and stream:
bank full. There is limit to all hu.
man energies. Because our Fedora
forces are everywhere "stuck in mud, >
it does not follow that the rebels will
yield quite SO easily to natural obstacles
But at present.. Vicksburg and Por
Hudson are vastly more important K
the rebel cause than Kanawha Valley
Every available man is hurried thither
IF any armed rebels are lurking OF
Kanawha, they are citizens, peaceabl'

rrOur readers nav remember lhat

ETOur readers may remember that
some months ago, while Buekner and
John Morgan were in Kentucky, the
rebels got up bogus copies Of the Louis
vile Journal, declaring in our names
a surrender Of the Union cause, and cir
eulated them freely for the encourage
ment Of their friends and the discourage
ment Of loyal men in Lexington, Yer
sailles, Danville, and other places.
This was no. one OF the Eeiy worst Of
their crimes. but it was characteristic
one. We now see that Bragg's rebels
down beyond Murfeeesboro are playing
the same scandalous game upon the
Nashville Union. They are printing
limitations Of that paper and spreading
them throughout the community as a
fraud upon the public. The Editor OF
the Union gives the following which
be says be has received from an official
source at Murfreesboro:
