sesECRANs, OPERATIONS IN GEORGIA.

Il Il has been reported from Memphis that General
Rosecrsns' army had been driven back by the
rebel forces under Bragg, assisted by reinforce.
ments from Joe Johnston, whose cavalry was said
to be destroying Rosecrans' communications.
There can scarcely be shadow of truth in the
the 10Th inst, the repulse was reported to
have taken place previous to that date, after two
days fighting. Through rebel sources we have
direct intelligence from General Johnston to the
18th. on which day he was at Atlanta, Ca, and
aothing is said about battle. The Richmond
despatch from Atlanta gives accounts of Skin
the steady advance Of the Union forces. A
skrmish is reported to have taken place on
the 18th, near Lafayette, in which the enemy
trebcs) were driven back. Lafayette is in Walk
er county. in the northwest corner of Georgia,
and is about one hundred miles north of Atlanta
aud eight or ten miles from the Tennessee line
Il would appear by this that a portion at least OF
General Rosecrsns' forces have penetrated the
State Of Georgia.
A. ?. Hills rebel corps is reported to have
joined their commander in the Southwest, and are
under the chief command of Gen. Bragg. Gen.
Loagstreet. with 20 900 men, was reported to have
arrived at Resaca. The Mobile Register states
that rebel troops hurrying to Atlanta, Ca,
from all directions General Rosecrans' forces are
ready for action, and the lines of the contestants
are very close to each other.
Tho comprehensive map which We publish
on our first page is drawn on an extra large
scale. so that our readers may readily follow the
armies in all their movements through Georgia.
II embraces the present and prospective scat Of
war from the line Immediately above Knoxville on
the north, the line a few miles beyond Chatta-
ncoga on the west, the cities Of Macon and
M,ledgeville on the south, the mountainous regions
bf Tennessee and North Carolina, the western part
Of South Carolina and the Savannah river, &C., on
the east. BY studying the map our readers can
easily locate the contendng armies. and calculate
the rspidity of their marches, the map il accom-.
panied by correct scale Of miles.

The probability Of war with England. or
with France. or with both Of these Powers
combined, 10 now the general and absorbing
topic of conversation, and even exercises a
considerable influence upon the speculations in
Wall street. But those persons who talk so
glibly Of foreign war forget a few very i'm
portant facts. Which, we think, somewhat re-
msve the possibility Of any such contest at
this period These facts are extremely signif-
cant. and may be very briefly stated.
We are conducting our civil war with means
and appliances unparalleled In the history Of
the world. We have an army larger than could
be raised by any European Power, with the
single exception. perhaps, Of Russia. This
army is splendidly disciplined and equipped,
and is armed with the best and most effective
weapons. II has seen service during several
campaigns, and has fought and won battles
compared to which Austerlitz, Waterloo, Sol
feriuo and Sebastopol were mere child's play.
We have cavairy force Of one hundred thou
sand men in course Of organization. led by gene
raj. who have accomplished the most brilliant
feat. Of modern warfare. We have navy Of
thirty thousand seamen, who have already
proven that Britannia no longer rules the wave,
and whose exploits at Hilton Head, New Or.
leans Port Hudson and other now historical
localities have thrown the battle OF the Nile
and the defeat OF the Spanish Armada complete
~ into the shade.
But. besides all this. and more than all this
we have an iron-clad fleet and ordnance sur
passing any yet invented. and a system OF
hsrbor delcnce- impresnable TO any forces
wa.cs EUROPE could send against us. Our

M private letter that we had 40 gun which
could throw ball from Fort Sumter TO Charles
ton effectively. All experienced ordnance
officers would have agreed with Dahlgren at
that time. But now Admiral Dahlgrea has
lived to see General Gilmore throw shells over
Fort Sumter aud iuto Charleston from batteries
five miles distant and Gilmore says that his guns
will easily throw shot another mile. The Eng

sent their finest Blakeley guns to the rebels.
and, when one Of them was recently tried at
long range, il burst at the FIRST discharge. the

Now, in this hasty and incomplete array Of

years we have revolutionized the modern sys-

revolutionize our revolution. Their is but one
limit to our development, aud that is necessity.
In other words, we shall only stop improving
and inventing when no more improvements and
inventions are required to enable us to pre-
serve an honorable peace with all mankind
The European Powers will appreciate these
truths, and will be fearful lest in the event of
a foreign war, we may devise some contrivance
to blow up the British isles, or to drop down
from balloon and annihilate Paris. Setting
aside, therefore. all political. diplomatic, COM

intelligence we see nothing OF the promised
improvement Of that unfortunate land. The
truth is, the French are powerless to regenerats
Mexico. Some Of the leading journals Of the

NASHVILLE, Dec. l5 There is a rumor that
Gen. Sherman, commanding the column IN pur-
suit OF LuDgstreet. encountered the rebel rear
guard, east OF Knoxville, and sustained a heavy
repulse, in which Gen. Sherman is said 10 be
badly wounded
The rumcr is not yet generally credited at
headquarters, but is traced 10 several distinct
sources. UuleSs corroborated by dispatches from
Chattanooga Of this date, the story will be dis
credited.
Col. Misener reports from Columbia that the
rebel deserters ana citizens are flocking to that
post in great numbers, asking to be allowed to
take the oath under the Presidents proclama-
ton. Col Misener says in regard to the num-
bers arrivln., that he has never seen the like.
