THE REBEL RAMS TO BE DETAINED.

The Rebel Rams TO be Detained-Sad Neacs

| have II from private and reliable source
that official notice has been given to Mr.. Adj
ans that the ironrlad rams at Liverpool and
Glasgow are stopped by the government and
wait the decision Of legal tribunal. This
drives the last nail in the rebel coffin No raw
of hope from this side Eliminates the cause Of
the rebellion.
This decision will be the cue for Louis Ma
poleon, and as he has declined to act with
out England, the game Of intervention, rccog
milton, and assistance on this side may be con-
sidered up. The gloom that has been gather
ing over the secession cause in general, and
the mind of John Bull in particular, has now
eliminated in one grand pail of despair. All
that cheeky, exultant tone, which was rife
before the 4th of July, has gone to the
tomb of the Capulets. Ills not one disaster, or
one piece of bad news, but myriad. You
know ''sorrows come not single spies, but in
battalions." Those sorrows are for the south
ern rebels, and they are caused by the battal-
ions of Uncle Sam.

that no lady Of ton will dare to appear on

to match the dress, or in tasteful contrast
to it, and in correspondence with theshads Of
the hat or mantle worn. The leather boots
have very high heels, and strings and tas.

enough to disclose the instep, st least. To

A good deal of surprise.has been fslt, aad
pretty freely expressed, too, ofcourss, at tho
unexpected number Of reflections Of drafted
men, for the msnifoldly MANNED causes
comprehsnded under the general head Of
"physical disability" The; interesting fact
has, however, been established at the Sur.
gical Bureau in Washington that the pro
portion Of our people who are exempted
from the draft on account of disability from
physical causes is scarcely greater than in
England or France. In the lsttsr eouptris,
the average per csntsge is q shade less than
twenty FIVE per cent, while with us il does
not in practice exceed thirty. Here the

they release persons for disabilities that

would not. The latter are supposed to bs

From the South.

The Richmond Enquirer, of the 9th inss,
contains the following leading article;
"Hhe movements of the enemy at Chat
tanooga are still uncertain. Whether the
occupation of Lookout Mountain indicates
an advance, or is like the crossing of the
Rappahaunock at Fredericksburg by Sedg.
wick's Corps, merely feint to cover re-
treat has not yet transplred, but when con-
sidered in connection with the reported
retreat from Lsudon and its occupation by
our forces, we are inclined to believe that
Grant is preparing change of base from
East Tennessee to some point more acces'
sible to supplies. This suppostion be-
comes more probable when it is remember
ed that FROM Lookout Valley to Bridgeport
his retreat could be more expeditiously
made than from Chattanooga. But whether
for advance or retreat, this occupation OF
Lookout Valley is of importance. If Tor
the former it demonstrates that the enemy

Bragg may prove equal to the prowess and
gallantry of his army; but we must confess
that the country will be as much surprised
