ROsECRANs IN NOTION.


After a long period of inaction in Nashville,
at which the outside world wondered, and
some surmised danger, Gen. Rosecrans has put
his army in motion, and, so far as our special
advices inform us, is steadily and resstlessly
pressing Bragg toward the Southern line of Ten
neSsee. We give this morning map Of the
location now most interesting in that part OF
the country. Yesterday We set forth the posi-
ton of the late forays of the Rebel Gen. For
rest along the railroad Gin the map from
Grand Junction Union City; also the
scene Of Morgan's plundering on the
Memphis Nashville and Louisville roads
above Bowling Green. The railroad from
Grand Junction 10 Union City is very much
damaged Every statiOn-hOuse between Tren-
ton and Moscow, within twelve miles OF CO.
lumbus, is burned. All tho bridge timber
along the route is also destroyed, and much OF
the track torn up.
OF Rosecrans's movements we have good
news: The 18th Army Corps made general
advance on Friday and pushed the Rebels
back seven or eight miles. Collins's Brigade
OF Gen. McCoOk's Corps had sharp bEuSh
with the enemy just behind Nolus'illc. Can
nonading took place for an hour, the enemy
wasting considerable ammunition. Our troops
reserved their fire until, advancing briskly, by
dexterous movement the lGlst Ohio captured
one gun and calsson. We lost one killed
and three wounded. This TOOK place on
