E0 aEIvc IN THE FIELD, Nov. 26. (
The entire army of the Potomac is
moving this morning and before this can
reach you we shall have a fight, unless
the enemy shall have taken the hint and
moved toward Richmond. l never saw
the army in better spirits and condition.
Another army of the Potomac dispatch
states that the army moved at daylight.
The rebels have only strong picket force
with some artillery below Mitchelfs Ford.
Their lines extend along the north bank
ofthe river from the vicinity of White S to
Mill Run when it bends to the south, which
is strongly fortified At the ford Below
Mill Run, they have strong detach-
ments of troops with artillery to prevent
our scouting parties from crossing, but
it is possible, since the publication of
Gen. Mead plan of movement and con
sequent suspension ofthe movement, they
have strengthened these points and will
make desperate effort to hold them.
A battle is expected at Germania Ford
or Jacobs Mills, perhaps at both.
The corps of A P. Hill has the left of
the rebel line and that, of Ewell the
right. ae4
Hills corps was reviewed by jeff Da-
Wis in person, on Tuesday, and Ewelrs
yesterday ae1p.ti sff Ha.as'i-
Information has been received of
private nature, that the rebel Gen. Pally
died of a wound received in the battle1of
Bristow Station. r-t a4F
Ewell has been absent from his corps
for some time from sickness, and it is
reported in the rebel lines to-day he is
dead. Farley is commanding the corps
temporarily. H''a
On Monday, Gen. Gregg moved his di-
vision of cavalry according to orders is
sued the evening previous, and crossed
the Rapidan at Ellis Ford with his whole
command, capturing few prisoners and
driving the rebel pickets back with some
loss. When he had perfected his cross
ing he received countermanding orders,
and was obliged to recross to this side of
the river.
Another dispatch Of the same date
says that at Manassas artillery firing was
heard in the morning, which appeared to

the Rapidan. There is some mud, which
to some extent impedes the progress of
the artillery and the supply trains, but
the roads are corduroyed, so nothing has
been stuck, thus far 1t is the first time,
for long period, that the Army Of the
Potomac has cut itself loose from its sup
ply trains and moved for a long march
1t never has been in condition to move
with so great celebrity as now, every

Army OF 4R8 CUMBERLAKD--You have
made grand and successful campaign /;
you have driven the rebels from Middle
Tennessss. You crossed q great noun
tain range, placed yourselves oEt the banks
Of broad. river, crossed in the face Of a
powerful opposing army, and crossed two
other great mountain ranges at the only
practicable passes. some forty miles be-
tween extremes. You concent rated in the
fsoeiof opposing numbers; fought the
combined armies Of Bragg, which you
drove from Shslbyvills to Tullahoma, Of
Johnston's army from Mississippi and the
tried veterans Of Longstreet's corps, and
for two days held them at bay, giving
them blow f6r blow, with heavy interest.
When the day closed you had the field,
from which you withdrew in the face of
overpoEering numbers, to occupy the
point FOR which you set t-Chattanooga.
You have accomplished the great work Of
the campaign; you hold the key of East
Tennessee, OF Northern Georgia, and Of
the enemy's mines of coal and nitre.
Let these achievements console for the
regret you experience that arrivals Of
fresh hostile troops forbade your remaining
on the field to renew the battle; for the
right Of burying your gallant dead, and
caring for your brave companions who
lay'wounded on Che field The losses you
have sustained, though heavy, are slight
considering the odds against you, and the
cNo a. lra WI hau k,rl =
hands the substantial fruits Of q victory,
end deserve and will receive the honors
and plaudits of a grateful nation, which
ssks nothing Of even those who have been
lighting Us, but obedience to the constitu-
ton and laws established for cur own
common benefit.
The General commanding earnestly begs
every officer and soldier Of this army to
unite with him in thanking Almighty God
for His favors to us. He presents his
hearty thanks and congratulations to all
the officers and soldiers of this command
for the energy, patience and perseverance,
and the undsunted courage displayed BY
those who fought with unhinching resolu-
ton. Neither the history Of this war, nor
probably the annals of any battle, furnish
loftier example of obstinate bravery
and enduring resistance to superior num-
bers-when troops, having examined their
ammunition, resorted to the bsyonet many
times to hold their position against such
odds, as did our left and centre, comprising
troops from all the corps, on the afternoon
Of the 20th Of September, at the battle Of
" chieksmauga." --
