Great Victory at Chattanooga.

Gen. Unconditional Surrender" Grant
with his veteran army has achieved great
victory. Bragg and his army are defeated
and routed Routed because the success was
followed up by the Union army. After de-
f-ating the rebel hordes at Chattanooga Ger
Grant did not consider the victory complete.
and sit down to make an official report and
recruit his army: but although he had taken
four or five thousand prisoners and forty
pieces of artillery, and was enabled to tee
graph the War Department, " believe AN
not remature in announcing a complete vic
tory" he also added, We will pursue ,he
enemy in the morning. He did pursue the
enemy in the morning. H. cid what no
other commander has done in this war-tol
lOred up a success! Al honor TO the brave

THE SITUATION.

We think no one can write understanding
" Of the military situation in Virginia One
fact is admitted, that Gen. Meade with the
army OF the Potomac has made another ad-
vance and crossed The Rapdan. There was
considerable heavy skirmishing with Lees
army at one or more Of the crossing fords
on Thursday and Friday in which our loss
was some il killed, wounded and prisoners
The old sixth corps finally successfully drove
back the rebels. and Oh Saturday Gen.
Meade's army was we'll nigh Orange Court
House, apparently determined to force Lee

my will fall back to Gurdonsville, that being
considered their strongest place We have

and this too upon ground Of their own Sc.
