Gen. Rosecrans Movements.

The triumphant entry of this brave
general into Chattanooga and of Burn
side into Knoxville, was cause for re.
joicing among all loyal men. 1t was an
important point gained as it freed Ten.
ncssec from the controlling power Of the
rebels. But the work of these generals
was not done, but only begun. Gen.
Rosecrans, allowing himself and men but
little time for rest pushed on into Geor-
gia' 1t was seen at once by rebel generals
that he must be repulsed or all was lost
Rosecrans was aiming first at Rome, and
then at Atlanta, an important railroad
center, the possession Of which by our
forces, would cut off the only remaining
railroad communication between Virgin
ia and Alabama and the South west.
When the enemy retired from Chatta-
nooga, upon the entrance 6f Rosec.ans
army, stand was made OF Lafayette,
about twenty miles south Of that place.
Here the rebel force having been made
formidable by reinforecments, so that it
numbered GJ 600 men, made stand at
the gap of the Pigeon Mountains, form
Ing line on this side as if to attack.
On Sunday week, Gen. Rosecrans left
Chattanooga, and assumed strong de-
tenslye position on Ghickamanga creek,
covering Chattanooga, Gen. NegIey's 5
Br'ga io consisting of $500 was met
on he same day by rebel force of lG,-
000 and driven bacl, some three or four
mlles,but ne recovered the ground the
next morning with loss OF 81 killed,
wounded and missing.
Rosecrans, finding he had such for
mldabe force to meet, Was compelled t2
mass his forces IN the neiglborhoei Of
Lafayette, m 'klng that place his head
quarters. On saturday, while Gen.
Roseerans Was concentrating his forces at
Gawford Springs. Gen. Thomas corps on
the left was attacked, and after des-
Perate light the rebels We're repulsed.-
Gen, Thomas forces then charged the
rebels for nearly mile aud halt, pun
lshlnS them badly.
About : O'Clock the enemy made Il
fierce dash on the center which gave way
and the troops became M leh scattered,
but Gens. Thomas and Davis pushed for
