DAYS before On the samc day Les was found
to have commenced his retreat from Gettys-

the Confederate Vice President, with Com
miesioper, came down the James River with
a flsg Of truce, bearing letters from President
nnvls to President Lincoln, and wishing to
allowed to proceed to Washington and de-
liver them IN pereon. That request, after
some hesitation, was refused, and that fu q
way which implied that the Federal Govern.
mcnt would not communicate with the Con-
fsterates, unless the subject Of the communi-
cation was known before the ENJOYS were I'D
mltted within the Federal lines. Nov 1t Is
not too much to say that at the time the Fed
eral Government returned this answer to d
request which could only be of . pacific tend
ency, they had just been relieved Of the
worst of their fears with regard to the two
most critical points Of the war, even though
they might notknow the whole. They wero
just in the very mood Of rcinstated conf
dence aud credit which English observers are
very apt to think the most favorable for

Such an incident casts an ominouB shadow
on the prospects Of this war. Whether the
Federals are ever beaten into peace or not, It
is evident they will never be sottened into
kindness By success. The least advantage,

We yesterday had conversation with
an officer belonging to gunboat that has
lately run the gauntlet If the Mississippi,
from New Orleans, and his description was
sufficient to satisfy US that the trading
steamboats, will have particularly hard
road to travel upon those waters, so long as
the present "cruel war; is in existence
He says that at every bend of the river, the
chances are ten to one that a party Of
guerrilas will be found lurking to pepper
an unlucky steamer not under the protective
wing of gunboat. At first, upon their
approach Of the latter, they were wont to
take to the woods, which the boat would
shell; but latterly they choose safer posi-
tion, protected by wood piles or embank
ments, which render them comparatively
safe. The gunboats from Cairo to New
Orleans are stationed forty miles apart, and
they patrol the river to and fro, like so
many sentinels. But even this immense
train of floating batteries is insufficient TO
protect the few steamers who are sufficient
" venturesome to brave the danger OF the
passage, for our informant says tina. not
one in half dozen passes unmoested. He
is certain that until peace is consummated
the Lower Mississippi. for all trading pur

Situation at Knoxville.

The following information was received
in this city last evening from Cumberland
Gap:
"A reliable officer; Lieutenant Staney

bopefut news Of the situation at Knoxville
General Burnside still holds out, and had
notified the citizens of Knoxville that he
would certainly hold the place. The rebel
force opposing him is estimated, by scouts
who have been through the lines several
times. to be $4,000. The place (Kuoxville)
is not closely invested. Brigadier General
Sanders, who was wounded, has died. Col
onel W oolford is slightly wounded. Tue

There is no information that any consider
able force of the enemy has entered len
nessee from Virginia, 81 that If Burnside Is
forced 20 retreat from Knoxville, he Will be
able to get out. If the enemy have with
drawn from the south side of Knoxville,
the fact is said to be significant ola decisive
repulse, as the town is least defended on
that side. General Burnside is holding
Knoxville under instructions from, ana
pursuant to an understanding with, General
Grant. 1t is not to be supposed, therefore,
that the forces under Thomas, Hooker, and
Sherman, are wasting their time during
these momentous days. We are in hourly
expectation of receiving intelligence OF the
most important character. 1t will be de-
termineo this week, if 1t is not already,
whether the rebel movement into East
Tennessee will be great success for teen
andIimperil our whole position, the Iennes,
ssee River or prove a disaster that will
compel their retreat into Central Georgia.
If Burnside holds out at Knoxville, we do
not sec how the rebel army can escape a
ruinous overthrow. In the mean time IT is
noticeable that an order has been issued re-
6eying General Burnside of command in
his department and turning his army over to
General Foster. This order was, however,
issued before the fighting at Knoxville, and
does not relate to 1t.

From the Richmond Sentinel, November L.,
1t is encouraging to those who look to
God for deliverance from our present troubles
to know that utthirty days after each
day that has been set apart by the President
of the Confederate States for prayer and
fasting we have had battle and victory.
noticed this fact stated in either the
Southern or Central Presbyterian, with
dates to prove. In the last instance the
fact is again verified. The battle OF
Chickamauga took place on the Both of
September, and the 2lst of August was the
day of fasting aud prayer. II has often
been Just thirty days than any other mum
Der, though in two or three other instances
il has varied a day or so. ifcEs4 4.
In view Of this fact would it not be well
for all religious denominations to unite in
urging the President to set aside one day
in every thirty for fasting and prayer, and
not wait until our country is shrcuded in
gloom from defeats and disasters?.
