."Judge Warren said that the full penalty of

Later from Rosecrans.

WASHINGTON, Sept 22.-According to an
ohclal despatch received here dated as late
as five O'Clock, yesterday, from General
Rosecrans, it is stated that he had informa-
ton that Longstreet's corps had reinforced
Bragg before the battle of Saturday, and it
was subsequently stated by deserters from
the rebel army that Ewell's corps had also
come to his assistance.
:, A telegram was received here to-day from
the officers in command at Chattanooga,
which speaks in the most encouraging
terms of the general result of the actions Of
Saturday and Sunday, in which. according
to his representation, the Union. army
achieved substantial success, the enemy
losing the most in killed, wounded, &C..
A prisoner taken from Bragg's army, says
Mobile has been stripped of troops for
Bragg's army, and that some troops have
been sent to him from Charleston. Also,
that troops from Lees army were in the
late fight; in fact, that the whole Confede-
racy seemed concentrated there for that at
tack on Rosecrans.
A rebel dispatch has been intercepted in
the extreme front of the army of the Po-
tomac therein the rebel commander of the
army of northern Virginia is informed
from Richmond that Bragg engaged Rose
Grams on Saturday and Sunday, capturing
~ pieces of artillery and 5000 prisoners,
