81: CHATTANOOGA, Nov Is. 1868.
Tho success Of our arms to-day Is very
brilliant. The enemy is driven from every
position. We assalled every timc, with q sin
gle exception. All portions Of our army
fought sp1endid1y, but the piercing Of the en-
m,'s center, By Woods, 6heridan's aud Bay
aru's dlvisloDs, md their occupation OF Mis-.
sionary Ridge, is regarded as one Of the
8raadest exploits Of the war.
Hooker's capture Of Lookout Mountain
yel terday, enabled him to sweep &round Oh
the Roesvll1e road to-day, and occupy tbs
right Of the ridge, and place iozce upon
the rebel left.
=. A part Of sherman's force, with Howard's
corps, went round between the end Of Mt<-
sicna'y Ridge and the river, thus placing
themtelves directly upon the rebel right.
Tho situatton Il one OF great Interest, aud we
.ec~rcely know how tho Union arms can fall
to achieve q complete triumph over the rebels.
In the light on cur LEFT We met with tzi-
fling mlsfortunc,a a brigade Of John E, Smiths
division having been repulsed In attempting
to carry rebel battery on Tunnel Eli. =

[7#ill not probably exceed 5000 Killed, wound.
