WE have received from one OF our West
Virginia boys 10 the army of the Cumber-
laud-Mr. John T. Brown, of the Cd Bril-
Rade, I'd Division, llth COrps,-a batch OF
rebel newspapers which he obtained from
a rebel picket He also sends US plat of
Chattanooga aud the situation round about,
which he picked up in the rebel quarters
after Hooker's gallant boys had driven them
from their rifle pits on one OF the cTests
which were so galIautly stOrmrd. 1t is
quite artistically executed.
We notice that nearly all the rebel pa.
pers, editorislly and in their corresPOn-
dence, are down on Bragg. The general
feeling is perhaps well illustrated by these
anecdotes, which we find in the Columbia
South CdrOliniam
Two old ladies were recently couversiug
on the battle of Chickamauga. Said one !:

that he were dead and 10 heaven. think
IL would be u God-Send to the COnfedeEa-
cy." "Why, my dear" said the other, "it
the General were near the gates OF heaven,
and invited in, al the critical moment he
would fall back"
The following reply is of the same order:
