Bragg A Bloody AVID Decisive struggle
Looked For.
CHATTANOOGA, Nov. l6.-All is quiet on our
front. The rebel battery on Lookout Mountain
has been quite vigorously worked to-day, firing
alternately on Hooker's camp, Moccasin Point,
and the Chattanooga camps. Rebel shells are
also occasionally thrown into town. The rebel
fire, although plunging one, Is neither accu-
rate nor effective. No casualties are reported
here. On Moccasin Point our batteries have
splendid range Of the rebel camps In the Chat
tanooga valley, on the east side of Lookout
Mountain.
The movements of the rebels at one time fa-
vored the belief that they would advance In
large force on Hooker's position and endeavor
to drive him out oft, but the strength of that
position and the advantageous way In which
Hooker has disposed of his forces, and the CO.
operation wi ich he can receive from other
forces has undoubtedly led the rebels to abandon
the scheme.
The latest information from our scouts is
contradictory of former reports.
II is now said that the Western and Atlanta
railroad has been worked to its full capacity
bringing reinforcements TO Bragg, and that tho
the road from Chickamauga station for eight
miles south is lined with rebel camps.
The campaign will not be closed without a
decisive and bloody struggle for the possession
of Chattanooga and East Tennessee.

Hooker's Position Mt Lookout valley.

The Chattanooga ReJel, OF November 10, ad-
mits that Bragg cannot take Chattanooga with
out greater loss than the South can sustain.
The Savannah Republican says the same, and
urges the reinforcements of Lee from here to
defeat Meade, when Grant could easily be
whipped.
The Rebsl claims Knoxville certain, and
hopes that will releaseBragg aud prevent further
retreat on Georgia.
The correspondent of the RJel, from the
front of Chattanooga, on November 9, says;
Had Jenkins attacked Hooker in sufficient
force the day after the Federas got possession
of Kelly's Ferry, and thrown q bridge over the
river, as Bragg ordered him TO do, or even on
the succeeding day wednesday, II Is possible
we might have still remained masters of the sit
uation, us by getting possession of Lookout

they could reinforce sooner from the valley
than we could send troops from our left to the
centre. From Browns Ferry TO the railroad Is
only one mile. II not moested, the Federals
will, OF course, construct the railroad to the
ferry, redu,ing the distance Of hauling supplies

This new move on the military chess board,

a mastery stroke. The conception was bril-
liant, executed admirably, and the combination
fautless. Everything slipped from us 70 east
