:H Elsewhere we print most dismal
jeremiad from the rebel press over their
late disaster at Chattanooga, and the fate
which orerhangs Longstreet. The SOUTH
ern heavens arc hung with black, and every
rebel has resolved himself into q raven,
croaking ill-omen. There is no mistaking
the sound this time. We have often heard
ominous mutterings, hut now it is q thor
ough, miserable how over disastrous re-
pulse, demoralized army and a black
prospect ahead. The scapegoat for all
this trouble is poor Bragg, driven at every
point by the Union troops through
the Confedcracy and now saddled with all
the blame Of disaster by the rebels them
selves; pronounced san ass at the head Of
an army Of lions,'' imbecile and incompe-
tent. The vocabulary Of epithcts Is cx-
hausted by the rebel press in their attacks
upon Bragg. Some cause for the Waterloo
must be found. They cannot in their wi1lfa1
blindness appreciate the resistless tide of
progress and freedom which is oyerspread-
ing their boundaries, aud which will soon
overwhelm them and forever bury out of
sight their bogus Confederacy. Bragg is
not responsible for defeat; it is the ap-
preaching footstep Of doom.

The Border State Members.

In classifying the Border State members Of
the House, last week, says the New York
Tribune, we counted those only n likely to
support the Administration candidate for
Speaker, Of whose adhesion We could speak
with certainty. We are now assured that
three, II not four, more votes can be connted
on the right side. a letter from Kentucky
states that Brutus Clay and VIM H Randall
will yote for the nominee Of the caucus, even
nthey do not attend it, Messrs. Segar,
hitcAin, and Chandler, the three members
from East virginia, are all reported to have
said that they shall do likewise. Hopes are
entertained that HI. Webster will 70 with
Acssrs- Winter Davis, Creswen and Thomas
Of MARYLAND. The House, after these four
rotes hive been subtTacted from the Anti
Administration and added to the Admins
tration side OF the table, will stand los to %,
giving the Administration q majority Of Is.

but they tell rs that the roads arc poorly
stocked and we'll nigh wo1n out 1fthis is
the fact, it may puzzle them to get carriage
done TO sufficient extent; especially If
their roads are kept well at work with ar
nv transportation.
But If this difficulty were out Of the way,
the eecond is not. A Confederate dollar at
Richmond is worth. about six and third
cents, in gold, with "a do,cn,oard tendency"
Now what inducement ia there to the farm
ets in Georgia to send up their grain into
Virginiae It will take an awful amount Of
collateral patriotism Of the rebel KIND, to
draw heavily on the Georgia supplies for
the Riehmondites, at that rate, and so We
fear that the Richmond xbbels arc starving,
because the farmers will not sell their pro-
ducts. Very likely. We may expect, that
though some parts Of rebeldom ARE getting
along very well as to food, other parts are
at deaths door, from the causes named.
As to The bearing Of the food question on
the war, two or tllroo things arc worth re-
membering. The rebel government viii
support its army as long as it can While
food is 10 be had. the army will have it,
though the people arc left TO-. go hungry.
And consequently, we may expect 10 hear
a great din about the suffering Of the south
ern Peo11e, before We shall hear. Of any
weakness oftheir army On account Of it.
And yet it must affect the army. Men Will
be slow to enlist; sharp in dodging the
conscription, and entcrprisins to desert,
while their friends at home are: starving.
Besides, with the territory Of the rebellion
hedged in, and restricted as tits, there
may be an absolute impossibility Of getting
the food together to keep up large army.
There is little doubt that the rebel army is
much reduced to day from this very cause.
But we have this to comfort US. The
harder we press them, the more starvation
will help ua To say nothing Of pushing
them in, upon narrower limits and the in
evitable shortening Of supplies from that
cause, the more We keep their armies on
the jump, the faster they waste, and the
more they consume. And thus our policy
is clear. Give them plenty OF exercise.
Keep The candle burning at both ends, The
