The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1863-12-09
New York, Dec. 8.

The Richmond Wing of the Sd talks
in the following plain style:
With no other motive or thought than
to advance the public interest, We would
again suggest to the President the advan-
tage Of reconstructing his cabinet and call
ing 10 his aid the very ablest intellects Of
the country. We have Department of
State that has not been able for nearly
three years to establish any relation With
any other State Treasury Department
that failed to keep its finances from run
ming to ruin; War Department. 10 the
hands of chief whose studies and course
of life has been purely and peculiarly
civic; Navy Department withouta navy;
a Post Office Department. with very
Sinking system of mails, and De-
partment of Justice vacant. The bust.
ness Of each Department severally shows
the want of more mastery hand, and
the powers of their chiefs in cabinet coun-
Gil are ever held useless to supply the
quantum of wisdom the country now
needs. We are getting to deep water and
the feeling is shaking the souls Of the
people. There is nothing the President
can do that will so reanimate their hearts
and stimulate their confidence and affec-
tien for him as the calling to his side as
his daily advisers cabinet of the wisest,
truest and most experienced men in the
Confederacy, regardless of what may
have been their former political associa-
tons. The time 10 proper, the occasion
urgent aud the people auxiously expect
ant. For his own continuing capacity
for usefulness and future fame, as we'll ~
on account of the sosely luecsssitous and
excellent condition Of the country, We
earnestly press this recommendation.

Ksoxville, Dec. s. =
The siete Of Knoxville is raised and
Lonestreet With bis army ia full retreat
towards Virginia. 1t virtually termi.
mated Yesterday, when 1t an early hour
the advance guard of our reinforcements
under Gen. Sherman arrived.
The enemy during the past few days
kept up an active show to prolong the
siege or renew the assault.
Early this morning a accommodating
force sent out by Gen. Fier-o found their
works empty. A few desertsrs were
brought in who report the main body
moved of after dark last night, leaving .
rear guard and pickets in their rife pits
to fall back 81 o'clock q. m. and Join the
remainder, who, they were told, would
form in line of battle short distance east
Of the city. This ruse was adopted to
prevent their premature abandonment of
their picket line.
Gen. Shackleford with cavalry is Al
ready in pursuit and close on their rear.
Prisoners and deserters are continually
arriving in squads of ten to twenty.
The deliverance and occupation Of East
Tennessee is considered finally settled by
the events of this campaign.
New York, Dec. 8-We have the fol-
lowing rebel accounts from Richmond
papers Of the 9Th:
Dalton, Dec. 4.-Gen. Ledbetter ar.
rived yesterday from Knoxville, which
point he left last Sunday. Gen. Long
street had on the same day made an un-
successful attack on Burnside, and after
wards commenced retreatipg to Virginia.
Hooker and Sigels corps are reported ad.
vancing on Knoxville and Loudon, and
will probably follow Longstreet or enter
North Carolina.
Firing was heard yesterday in the d.
rection of Cleveland, which was supposed
to be from Wheeler's cavalry.
Dalton, Dec 1.-THE latest accounts
represent that Longstreet with part of his
command made an unsuccessful attack on
Knoxville, and that his loss was very
small He then raised the siege, march
ing towards Abingdon, Va.
Gen. Bushrod johnson had succeeded
in effecting junction with Longstreet
without the loss of his supply train as
previously reported.
Gen. Vaughn with his command and
one Of Cheatham's regiments was at
Charleston, Teun.. trying to make his
way to North Carolina. Our forces are
possession of Ringgold. Nothing from
the front.
