The Chattanooga correspondent of the
Cincinnati COMMERCIAL gives strong pic
ture of the horse famine at the front.
He says:
The mortality among the horses of this
army has been very great lately Hun
dreds of animals have died of actual
starvation, and the survivors are pitifully
gaunt and lean. The evil is being RENEE
died, partially by the removal OF large
amount of useless stock TO Stevenson and
Bridgeport. 1t is impossible to haul a
sufficient supply of forage from Bridge
port, and the country is thoroughly de-
pleted of this years crop already. AS
a further measure Of economy in horse
feed, all suffers have bseh ordered to the
rear as far as StevensOn-thel large num-
ber of teams kept by them being quite
an item in the forage line. Even head
quarter horses are kept on short allow
ance, and many Brigadier's steed shows
his ribs in bold relief. Chargers that
were wont to revel in the lap of plenty,
and lie down on soft beds of hay and
straw, now poke their noses into empty
hay rackF, aud Chew fence-rails ia de-
fault Of corn ears. The army wagons
are meandering evidences of unappeased
mule Appetites. Every side-boArd tail
board and tongue bears marks of hungry
teeth, and many of these articles are
gnAwed away until nothing but the nails
aud screws remain. An Army of the
Cumberland horse will eat himself loose
from an ordinary hitching post in fifteen
minutes, and a good sized wagon bed
will be devOured by hungry team in
one night. Pretty costly fodder, for
mules, 10 be sure. An officer arrived in

FROM CHATTANOOGA,
CnArrANooGA- Nov.

Descrters last night reported the
rebel troops falling back to Chi camau.
ga Station. Their artillery has all been
withdrawn from the front.
The whole army is apparently in
retreat; nothing but pickets to be left
in front tomorrow morning, and say
they were detailed foragers.
A reconnaissance this afternoon re-
vealed the enemy,appparently in force,
between us and Missionary Ridge,
around considerable portion Of
line.
Wood drove in the enemy's pickets,
and charging up to Orchard Ridge,
carried the rifle pits gallantly under a
severe musketry fire, and took about
200 prisoners.
We now hold all the high ground
this side of Missionary Ridge. Our
troops are in line of battle around the
Whole line, and will lie on their arms
tonight
Hard fighting is inevitable to.mor-
row, unless the rebels withdraw in the
night.
At least ten different batteries open
ed on our advancing column, this eve
ming, from Mission Ridge.
Lookout is not abandoned.
Our loss in killed and wounded may
reach 400.

ATHENS, O., Nov. Goth, 'GS

ATHENS, o., Nov. 2Uth, Us.
Mr.. EDrToR:-By you. permission,
wish to say few words to your
readers in behalf Of the Ohio Univer-
sity, and its claims upon their atten.
ton for educational advantages.
1st. This is one of our oldest State
institutions, well and permanently en-
dowcd, and manned with full corps
of able and experienced professors an
teachers, second as educators to none
in the Stale.
I'd. This institution is situated in
one of the most pleasant and healthy
villages in Southern Ohio, with II com
pass and surroundings OF exquisite
beauty.
Sd. The opportunity for young mcn
of limited means, to secure a scientific
and classical education are better than
in almost any other institution in oua
knd. Any student can, by proper
economy, sustain himself here at the
rate of 81 20 per week, and many arr
doing it at less. The Board OF Trus
tees have recently passed a resolution
extending to all soldiers who have il
any way been disabled and honorably
discharged from the service, the PRIV
iIege uf entering the University, an'
enjoying its educational advantage
free of charge. Fairfield county ha
already Il number Of students here
and moro will be gladly welcomed a
the commencement Of the next term
which takes place on or about the Is
otNovember. Any one desiring fur
ther information can obtain it by ad
dressing Rev. DR.. Howard, President
who will be glad to answer any inqa
ries q. Il. FELTON,.

U. STAMP DUTIES.

Under this head the Eagle of last
week has an article on stamps. Mis-
leading its readers, as usual, it informs
them that acitizen of Fairfield county
was "requircd to stamp a sl4 note,-
goods bought alta sale)-six cents"
and that "there is no stamp duty on a
note, draft, order or check, for less
amount than $40" The sable and
aStute" legal gentleman who writes the
ponderous articles for the Eagle is
mistaken. Section 6 Of the Amcnda
tory Act of March Sd, 1868, on this
subject, provides that "any prom;ssory
note shall Gin lieu Of the duties pre-
scribcd in schedule By, have a stamp
or stamps affixed thereon denoting a
duty, upon any sum Of two hundred
dollars, or any fractional part Thereof"
Fourteen dollars being a fractional
part of two hundred dollars, note for
that amount will require stamp, the
amount of which will be determined
by the time of payment. If payable
ON demand or at any time not exceed
ing thirty-three days, including grace,
from the date, it will require stamp
of fono cent If payable at any time
not less than four and not exceeding
six months from date or sight, it will
require stamp Of SIX cents. So that
if tho $14 note mentioned was payable
at any time not less than four nor
more than six months from date, the
law required stamp of six cents to be
affixed
1t has been decided by the Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue, that prom
issory notes of $40 and under, must be
stamped to be legal. and that persons
giving such notes are liable to fine
ofS5O if they do not afix the proper
stamp,

WASHINGTON Nov. 90.
The advices received by the Gov.
ernment are Of Il corresponding tenor
to those furnished by the newspapers,
though a little more confident in Burn
sides being able TO hold out
The Washington Chronicle and Re.
publican to-day assert that Meade ad-
vanced this morning, but the Star, de-
MES it, declaring that official circles
know nothing about it. The latter is
correct in point Of time only, for Meade
has made no advance yet. The caval-
ry, however, is just now very active
and stirring news may be anticipated
at least from that branch of the ar,
my.
1t is published here that Thomas
army is on tho move, and Longstreet
may find troops in his rear before he
can successfully beseige Burnside
which will compel him to retreat, ol
run the risk of being cut off.
The statement that the Presiden
has not commenced his annual Mes
sage because of the non-reccipt of de
partmental reports, is untrue, as it il
we'll known that he has completed tha
portion relating to the policy of thu
Administration in its bearing on th,
war, and especially that portion refer
ring TO the status Of the States in re
bcIlion and the institution of slavery
therein.
A late train from the army bring
intelligence that everything has bccl
quiet there to-day. No movement o
our own or the rebel forces has o cur
red. The quietness is not permanent

omslaI n. port ofths Battle ofosttysburE.

Gen. Mcades detailed report of the
battle Of Gettysburg, dated Oct. lst,
has been officially promulgated. He
gives us the reason for the delay in
making it, the failure till then Of re-
ceiving the reports Of several corps
and division commanders, who were
severely wounded in the battle, and
says that the result Of the campaign
may be briefly stated in the defeat Of
the enemy at Gettysburg-his compul-
sorry evacuation Of Pennsylvania and
Maryland, and withdrawal from the
Upper Valley Of the Shenandoah, and
in the capture of3 guns, al standards,
and 1861 prisoners. Besides this,
24,978 small arms were collected on
the battlefield. Our own losses were
very severe, amounting, as will be
seen by the accompanying return, to
2.S34 killed, 1900 wounded and G,G4a
missing--in all %, 1885, lie adds hi.
tribute to the heroic bravery of tho
whole army-ofiicers and men. Gen
Meade estimated the Confederate army
in its advance at that time to be l00, 900
strong
