We have news from Richmond up to the day
before yesterday morning, when $50 Union
prisoners taken from Milroy in the Valley)
left there on a flag of truce boat, to be ex-

troops there except the few manning the works
The citizens were being assembled every after
noon at three O'Clock for drill. The fear OF
Dix rumored approach was universal there.

member of our quartermaster's department,

easily fall, il vigorously assailed.

REINFORCEhESTS FOR LEE MOVING FROM

We have information from Hagerstown as
late as yesterday morning, to the effect that re-
Inducements for Lee were being hurried up
from Wiliiamsport, via the old Greeneastle
turnpike.
There is a report at headquarters that a con-
siderable force OF Confederate cavalry were at
Gum Springs, in Loudon county, yesterday,
but the fact that Moseby's cavalry were at
Hagerstown on Thursday-of which we have
certain Observation-Disclosures doubt on the story
OF the presence of rebel cavalry in Loudon

RosECRANs, IMPORTANT SUCCESS

The capture OF the enemy's strong position
Of Tullahoma, Tenn, and its full occupation
by our army under Iosecrans, official news
of which last event has reached here, is an
event of signal importance-worthy, indeed, of
announcement on this glorious day.
1t is the key to the possession OF East Ten
nessee, and the point in frsnt of Chattanooga
for which the two great armies in that region
have SO long contended.
Itnecessitates that Bragg's army shall quick
ly retreat to the Businesses of Chattanooga, re-
leasing the large arms bearing Union popula-
ton Of East Tennessee to cooperate hereafter
most effectively, we trust, with our gallant
troops under Rosecrans.
