aAbout a O'Clock the brigade swept bold
ly up the slope, through heavy fire from
the batteries, until they reached the crest,
when the line halted and Was reinforced
BY Longs brigade. The dash at the battery,
though brilliant one, Vas met by sweep,
Ing Gre from mpsketry, that tore through
the line with terrible effect. The men res
coiled, returned again, and were again un-
successful, when the whole line retired u
the earthwork from which they sailed,
"About 4 o'clock, Gen. Hooker, who had
been ordered from Lookout Mountain to
Rossville, was reported moving down the
ridge, and an assault was again ordered
The enemy yesterday constructed very,
formidable works On the crest. AT slgnai
agreed On, Wood and Sheridan charged
simultaneously, carried the first line OF
earthworks, aud, supported by Baird, push
ed boldly forward toward the summit.
"The spectacle viewed from Fort Wood
was most thrilling one. The assault cost
US dearly, but the line never slackenea It's
pace nor staggered before the fire that
greeted it. Flanked by Hooker, and beaten
by the assailants in front the rebels attempt
ed to escape We pushed forward; Hooker
closed in; the works were scaled, and tue
fruits of the victory are fifteen hundred
prisoners, and at least twenty-five pieces OF
artillery. Our camp fires are blazing along
the crest of the whole ridge, distance OF
eight miles Bragg will doubtless with
draw under cover of night"
Another dispatch thus speaks OF the in
dsmitable pluck displayed by Rockers
command: ...
"They acted under no orders from super
ior officers, but, after taking Missionary
Ridge, swept on IN one resistess wave of
attack. The ground they crossed was en-
filaded on both right and left, and they
were subject also to heavy fire in 'front.'
So precipitous was the ground that some of
their men had to throw down their muskets
in order to climb up, but they still went
ahead, and in some cases, absolutely plung
ed into the rebel rife pits, and attacked
the enemy with their fists. Bragg and
Breckenridge had regarded this position as
so secure that they had selected it as their
headquarters; and when our impetous as
saulters came up. they narrowly ESCAPED
capture"

AN INsuRRKcTloN may be suppressed oy
force, but belief is not to be thus SUD-
dued. An intelligent and just administra-
ton could a hundred years ago have made
ireland as loyal a division Of the British
KINGDOM as Wales or Scotland. Fanat''
cism and tyranny have ingrained the hatred
that Cromwelps troopers first made natural
and universal. The radicals talk about
peace with the South We had peace once
we had more, we had genial intercourse
a common pride, common interests, aud
common loyalty to the national bag. All
these the radicals for twenty years have
done their best to destroy. Their WORK
has had the fearful consequences which nov
surround as, but which we are yet tar from
realizing or feeling as we shall. Gould We
thoroughly overrun the South, depopulate
and make bowling wilderness OF halt oul
national territory, yet 80 long as man IL
man We never can reconstitute the nation
upon radical principles. Not until the
radicals are hurled from power, and their
doctrines are repudiated forever BY the
North, shall we have reunion with the
South. Then it may be not impossible
That the mania of radicalism is selt-hm'
tied deseas we fully believe, but the ques'
ton now is whether it's course will be rur
ere the country is ruined.

MANY charitable people run OF an idea
that il the fools are not all dead yet, the
people are altogether too wise to let the
former exercise any very preponderatlng
influence But can such theory be SUE
eessfully maintained now a.days? Take the
case, for instance, of Judge UNDERWOOD,
of the e. S. District Court for Virginia, one
of the appointees of this Administration,
and evidently appointed from some former
position which had furnished him with no
qualifications for his present office. lie
has been holding court in Norfolk recently,
and has ordered the conascation of many
estates Of rebels, some of them of great val
ue Moro cases are to be at once disposed
uf. The Judge pronounces that under the
decree of the Court, the purcha 1er of such
40 estate acquires full title in t., simple
The Constitution, to be sure, rovides that
mo attsinder of treason shall york corrup-
ton of blood or forfeiture, except dnr'ng
the life Of the person misunderstanding
that Though man may be made t. snifer
loss of property for his own crimes, yet his
family shall not thereby be dislnherlted.-
But although the owners OF these estates
have moi even been attainted, that is COT
victed of treason BY any process OF law,
yet Judge UNDER WOOD holds that the land
i. lost To them forever, the clause OF the
Constitution, as be reads it, intending only
that the decree of forfeiture must take
place during the life uf the owner, and not
after his decease We should not advise
any one to take deed Of either Of these
estates, under Judge UNDERwooD's rather
original than actually ingenious decision.
