From the West.

ATLANTA, Sept. 23.-It is stated on authori,
ty deemed reliable that the enemy burned all
his stores in Chatta nooga and there is no Yam
kee army south of Tennessee river to-day.
There is no confirmation OF the occupation of
Chattanooga by Gen. Bragg, but it is generally
believed. Information comes in slowly from
the front, but what reaches us from available
channels Of communication estimates our loss
variously, up to $4,000, of which five or six
thousand are wounded, most slightly. The
loss o. the enemy in killed, wounded and pri-
soncrs is varionsly placed at from $4,000 to
$4,000. Large quantities of arms and baggage
have been brought 20 the various dcpots in our
rear. The army train has moved forward
Many of the wounded are at the field hospital
near Rock Springs, others have been brought
to Dalton, Marietta and atlanta.
The Press Association Reporter is in trout
and it is hoped he will be permitted to send
true report.
Trains to-day have brought prisoners, but no
has had his right leg amputated and says he
will live to fight the Yankees another battle.
ATLANTA, Sept 23 3-The pursuit goes on.
The latest report is the following telegram:
TUNNEL HILL, Sept. 22.-Seven o'clock, D.
m.-Latest from Headquarters.-Our army is
near Chattanooga. We expect to be there to-
morrow. Rumor says we occupied it to night.
Private advices say 10000 prisoners on down
trains to-day. large corps of bridge build
ers have been sent to the front with orders to
nooga via Cleveland. 1t is supposed trains
will run to Chattanooga to day, as the road to
Cleveland is known to be good; that from
Cleveland to Chattanooga is not known to be
good.

A Yankee Rebuke.

The Atlanta Intelligencer says:
At Adarsville we met several car loads of
Yankee prisoners on last Sunday. A large
number of persons were eagerly conversing
with them, and amongst the items we noticed
were the following:
One contemplate fellow, amongst our citi-
Gems, was attempting to bargain lin an under

kec, for greenbacks. The Yankee, in uudis-
guiaed disgust, and in tone of voice sufficient
ly loud to be heard by all who stood about, re-
marked to him: "You arc disgrace to any
country. AM man who does as you have
done, oher two dollars Of your own money for
ono of greenbacks, is not entitled to country.
You are mean and bad citizen" Tho cow
ardy ,coundrel SUNK of, and our people ap.
plauded the Yankee. Verify, we would much
rather take the open armed foe by the hand
ana welcome him, than to show an act of k nd
ness or co urtesy to tho enemy who, at home,
reduces our currency. The Yankee rebuked
him properly.
One fellow, on being asked what he was
fighting for, said, Union" A German along
side of him said, "te Union wash played out"
he "was vightin for tirtcen dollars month"

prisoners are dogged, mean, cut-throat looking

A letter from Charleston, describing the way

A letter from Charleston, describing the way
Wagner was sapped, says:
The manner Of dg;ng this sap under our fire
is as follows: y huge iron tube, like those
employed in aqucducts is laid in the trench,
and in this three or four men conceal them
selves. The one at the end nearest the bate
ry digs away the sand, drawing it into the tube
His next neighbor scrapes it along to his com
panion, who inturpassess to the rear. Here
it is thrown out to the surface and constitutes
an embanliment, behind which are sheltered
the Federal sharpShootcrs. When the sand
i'll front has been dug away as far as man
can reach the tube is propelled onward and
the other operation is repeated, thus PROCESS
of several yards is made every day.

Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1863-03-13
JEFFERSON DAVIS.

This gentleman inhabits an unpretend-
ing residence in Richmond, in which he
passes the few hours of his daily life not
occupied by affairs of State. 1t is retired
and simple, and the household arrange
ments are conducted on an economical
scale. He keeps plain carriage, and
but few servants, He gives no reeep.
tons, and, with Mrs. Davis, discourages
the untimely revelry which occasionally
breaks out around them, by abstaining
from visiting places of amusement, and
accepting invitations to private entertain
ments given by the nabobs of Richmond.
He is a regular attendant of the Episco-
pal Church, of which be is member.
His official duties are, as must be
known, varied. pressing, and Of the gray
est responsibility; and, though his mem
tai faculties seem equal to tho strain,
that be suffers physically can be- seen in
his wasted body and care-worn features.
One Of the principal objects of his late
tour through the South was to recruit his
health, and it is said he returned to Rich
mond much the better for it in mind and
body. He gives full play to his military
genius, and is literally the Commander
in Chief Of the army. Every leading
General coming to Richmond is closeted
with him more or less time, and when he
leaves, he always shows that he is better
posted on tho military situation in the
Generals Department than any one about
Richmond. Lee is an adviser and con-
iidant 10 all military matters, and the two
spend much time together plotting cam
paigns and determining military opera
tons.
