From the Dispatch, 18th Sept.

We learn that on Saturday a party of
Federals made a raid up to Curtis, General
Lees farm, on the Pamunksy river, and
captured small steamer owned by Mr.. T.
7. Cooper. 1t was afterwards stated that
they were making a raid further up the
peninsula, but we have heard nothing more
of their doings than the performance noted
above.
NEAR CHATTANOOGA, Sept, 24.f-The re-
port from Gen. Hood last night was favor
able.
Our prisoners will reach 1000, of whom
1000 are wounded We have % stands of
colors and guidons, 36 pieces of artillery,
and $1,000 small arms.
ATLANTA, Sept. 25.-Several trains with
wounded have arrived. The reports OF af,
fairs above are conflicting. We are in
clined to believe that the enemy are forti
flying Chattanooga. Our lines are within
four miles of that place. SO says a dis
patch from Gen. Bragg.
Officers state that Rosecrans sent two
flags Of truce, asking permission to bury
their dead and relieve the wounded. Gen.
Bragg rejected both applications, replying
that he had enough of Yankee prisoners te
bury the dead and Yankee surgeons to at
tend to their wounded.
ATLANTA, Sept, 1G.-Our lines extend
around Chattanooga, within striking dis,
lance Of the enemy. Our forces are we'll
up to the front. Full supplies of commits
sary and hospital stores are close at hand
On Thursday night our cavalry occupied
Cooper's Gap, on Lookout Mountain, II
miles from Chattanooga. That night Gen
Wheeler made a reconnaissance toward
Lookout Mountain, found an infantry force
of the enemy, and drove them away. The
mountain is now held by Gen. Longtreet.
The enemy's operations are plainly visible
| from Lookout.
Rosecrans has two lines of defense on
| the road to Chattanooga, six hundred yards
| apart. He has one pontoon bridge across
the river, which is crowded with wagons,
and the impression is that he brings them
over as they are needed.
Gen. Longstreet commands the river and
railroad below Chattanooga.
Our loss in killed and wounded will not
exceed 1900.
