Burnside in Possession OF Knox
vile, Tennessee!
he HAS POSSESSION OF ALL THE CHEZ
STRATAGETIC POINTS Of EAST
TENNE-SEEil
CAPTURES LARGE AMOUNT OF STORES
TRAINS, TRANSPORTATION, &C.. &c.
THE REBELS RETIRE WITHOUT CONTEST


Dispatches have been received in this city
conveying the interesting aud important in
formation that General Burnside has reached
Knoxville, and has seized the chief strategic
points of East Tennessee. a.
On the 9TH instant portion of Burnside's
cavalry occupied Knoxville. Others Of his
troops were at that time above and below
Knoxville, on the line Of the East Virginia and
Tennessee Railroad.
He tas also captured large amount of val
liable stores, trains, transr ortation, &C.; and
tie blow thus dealt to rebellion, though &C.
complished with slight loss of life and with
ont any obstinate resistance on the part OF the
enemy, is one of the first importance, enabling
Burnside to cooperate with Rosecrans, giving
us possession OF the great central railroads,
the backbone Of the Oonfederacy, Gripping
the enemy lrreparably in the way Of supplies,
rolling stock, &c, and bringing into our ranks
hosts Of the courageous UnionIsts of East Ten
nessee, who have persistently, at the hazard of
life, refused to join hands with the rebels.
The fact that Gen. Burnside has been able to
accomplish these important results with so
little fighting is most significant and encoura.
ging one, in itself, as going to show the growing
weakness of the enemy, who cannot, even for
SO important lake as the possession Of East
Tennessee, declared heretofore by the rebel
presses as of vital importance to the Confede-
rate cause,) rally an opposing force.

A Sensation Story-French and Federal

A Sensation Story-French and Federal
Troops said to be Confr onting Each Other
Oh the Rio Grandc.
The New York Express of Saturday has a
budget of news, brought by the George Wash
ington from New Orleans, relative to the move.
ments OF Gen. Grants army, According to the
news brought, it is said to be the belief in New
orleans atGrant's expedition is not intea ded
for Mobile, (as heretofore stately but that it
will turn up at the mouth Of the Rio Grande.
This is the belief of rebel sympathizers who
are said to be always we'll posted. They are
likewise certain that the movement was to be
marked by great celebrity. They say some of
the troops had already gone forward, and would
be on Texas soil, as the nucleus of great army
OF occupation there, before the George Wash.
ington could reach New York.
The further talk among these wonderful wise
Rebel sympathiZers was that this concentration
OF Federal troops at the mouth Of the Rio
Grande, was in consequence of an anticipated
rupture OF friendly relations between France
and the United States; that certain demands
have been made of the French Emperor, in re.
spect to his recent operations in Mexico,
which, ii Eot satisfactorily complied with
will be Immediately follow by the invasion of
that country by the army OF General Grant
That secret understanding contemplating
some such invasion exists between President
1Ainccln and the fugitive Mexican President
JuareZ that, finally, a war between France
and the United States, growing out of these
complications, is now inc vtable, &C., &C.
The Express also has information that the
French having taken possession of Tampico,
have also sent force to take possession of
Matamoras. This city is opposite Brownsville,
Texas, which latter place has for long while
Teen held by the rebel General Bee. IT
Grants expedition therefore (argues the Ee.
press) is going to the Rio Grande, the French
and Federal forces will be brought face to face
on the banks Of that river
The news Of the Express, however, "requires
confirmation"

Resume OF the Movements of two Weeks
Our Troops Crossing the River-The Sit.

portant Events in Prospect.
STEVENSON, ALA, Aug.
Cincinnati Gazette. IA brief review Of the
progress of events up to this morning, may not
be out of place.
On Tuesday the 10Th inst, the entire Army OF
the Cumberland got pretty generally in motion,
and from that until the 21st, different corps
were struggling across the mountains, and
taking up position along the new line extending
from Harrison above Chattanooga, to Belle
fOnte, below Stevenson.
On Saturday the 3d. Col. J. T. Wilder, com.
manding brigade of infantry in General J. J.
Reynolds division, appeared before Chatta-
nooga, and shelled 1t from 10 m. until p.
m, inflicting considerable injury upon the en-
envy, and losing one man severely, and two
slightly wounded.
From the 23d to the 2sth extensive prepara-
tions were made for crossing the TENNESSEE
the extreme left of the army got fully into line,
and some unimportant skirmishing took place
at different points.
On the morning Of the Doth, everything being
in readiness, the pontoons which had hitherto
been concealed in the valleys and coves among
the mountains at some distance from the river,
were hurried to the front; and in a space Of
time which would seem incredibly short to the
uninitlated, a force was landed on the other side
Of the Tennessee sufficiently strong to bid def
dnce to the enemy.
The crossing was effected at four different
points-Shel!mound, Bridgeport, opposite Ste
venson, and Bellefonte
1t would be improper to designate the forces
now upon the other side, but the first troops
which landed opposite Stevenson were those
& . "a, 49,
T.. DAVIS division.
At Shellmound a portion of Gen. Reynolds
division first reached the other side. They
captured a number of rebels near Shellmound,
and broke up a camp at Failing Water Greek.
Other forces have of course followed since
the mt.Ining of the goth; we hold the country
from Shellmounu 10 BeIIeIOnte, extending q
hour picking up stragglers and receiving deser-
tiers from the enemy.
Yesterday a large force Of our cavalry forded
the river, losing two men and five horses
drowned in the passage. They Immediately
took up the line of march in the direction OF
Chattanooga, since which they have not been
heard from.
This morning there is a general activity
along the " hole line, indicating the speedy an
proach of important events. Y S.

DAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 6.-Japan dates to the

asa~a' oy the Island passage, was attacked
on the 18TH OF July by the forts and the vessels
that Lad previously fired upon the American

On the Goth of July the American steamer
Wyoming arrived at kanagawa from a trip to
punish the Danio. whose vessels and forts fired
upon the Pembroke. The Wyoming is reported
to have done her work well, having blown up
the Japanese steamer Sancefield, and silenced
nearly all the 'nsighboring forts, and left the
Japanese steamer Leneck in . sinking condi-
ton.
The Wyoming received twenty shots, and
had FIVE men killed and six wounded, when
