" VICTORY IN GEORGIA.


The telegraph informs us that Gen.
Bragg has won a victory in Georgia, af
ter two days hard fighting, capturing
"over twenty pieces of artillery and over
$500 prisoners" The fighting was not
over, as the enemy still confronted
Bragg. We hope that, as such decided
success has attended our arms at the
commencement, no reverse may be ex-
perienced, though it is impossible at pres
ent writing to say what will be the final
result, yet all look forward most anx-
iously to hear the full and final shout of
victory
"Should Bragg win a decided victory,
driving Rosecrans back upon Nashville,
and pressing forward upon him, Tennes-
see will be reclaimed, and all the gloom
that lately overspread the cause be dis
PEELED. The most important results
hang upon the impending battle; the
enemy are no where else able to take the
field. Charleston and Chattanooga are
the only points where the enemy present
the least appearance of fight Defeated
