Chattanooga and Knoxviile-A Grsa
Battle Goiag on.

Battle !Goiag on.
Good news from Tennessee comes by way Of
Chattanooga. A battle, which was commenced
on Monday by reconnaissance in force, was
continued yesterday, with the most gratifying
results. The enemy, though resisting sturdiIy
the advance of OUT forces, have been driven
back. This comprises the pith Of the very
brief telegraphic announcement we have
received. The retirement Of the rebel army
in front of General Grant tells all that we
could wish Of the success Of Burnsids's re-
sistance to Longstreet. Though the telegraph
is 80 indefinite that we cannot make out whether
an advance OF General Thomas found the enc
my ready to retire on the slightest occasion,
or whether the previous retirement Of the enc
my led to the advance by General Thomas and
the occupation Of ground recently within the
enemy's lines, yet the news is sufficiently
clear and satisfactory upon the general fact
that the recent status is broken up.
If it shall prove that the force under Bragg
Is again really in retreat, we may assume
thence that the movement into East Tennessee
has disappointed its projectors, and we may
see in the column under Longstreet but little
else than . forlorn hope. It was evident q
great many days ago that the rebel army near
Chattanooga could not retain its position in
front of Grant il matters should remain as they
then were. An advance of the main force against
either Thomas or Hooker was certainly hope.

ed an attempt in East Tennessee, and prepared
for it.

days edition letter written by Mr.. Richard
Golden, and which relates TO the war in Japan.
Upon that subject Mr.. Cobdsn reads lesson to
those canting and hypocriticsl countrymen OF

the barbarous manner in which our civil war
is conducted. To those who have so freely
condemned us Mr, Golden frankly states that
the atrocities COM hitted by the English in
Japan are horrible in comparison with any
event which may be cited as having occurred in
thi. country. The English have shelled and
burned to ashes a city OF one hundred thousand
inhabitants, and those who accomplished this
6endish acc now demand from their government
praise and reward for the deed. w. CQbdsn

A private letter from an officer o! Col.
HowARp's Regiment of Cavalry, dated in
Camp, near Murfreesboro', Jan. IL, thus
speaks of Capt. SANpUsKY's (Meigs coun-
ty) Company
They behaved most Rallantly and had
been diminishing with the enemy eight
days before the general engagement in
front of Murfreesboro'. Meigs may well
be proud of her boys. Some few were
slightly wounded, and two killed. Too
much praise cannot be given to 1t. w. P.
Moore, and LIT. J. c. Moore, both well
known in Meigs, for their signal gallaEtry
in all the engagements. They are good
and efficient officers, and credit to our
country.
"The Regiment is encamped in front,
close to the enemy, and in slight sklr-
mish drove in their pckets yesterday
The battle of Murfreesboro' was a COM
plete victory-and should the Federals
come out again, they will be similarly
treated on the hills of Duck River, where
we will make our stand"

The New York Herald of the 18th. has
the following paragraph in regard to
Banks Expedition:
At length we are getting some tidings
of the Banks Expedition. The main
body of the Expedition is still quartered
at Ship Island and New Orleans. Only
a few regiments, 1t is said, are at Baton
Rouge The wrecks of ships belonging
to the Expedition are said to be strewn
all along the shore between New Orleans
and New York. The New Orleans cor
respondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer
asserts as his belief, based upon personal
knowledge and information derived from
other sources, that not less han fifteen
vessels belonging to the Expedition have
been wrecked, disabled, condemned, or
have gone down at sea and no account
made of them"
