The Bomardment OF Sumter.

From the Richmond Examiner Nov. .
The monstrous bombardmend Of Sumter
continues with nabated vigor but neverdid
so great noise attract so little attention.
Perhaps it was never made till now for so
little purpose. What the enemy expect to
gain by this limitless expenditure Of
fixed ammunition cannot easily be mag
ined, unless it is the qualification of stupid
rage on that mound of broken brick and
stone. If they could strike every fragment
one by one, into the water, not step to the
capture of Charleston would be achieved,
for the position is untenable, even for an
hour, against the batteries which command
it. But whsta glory will settle on that
ruined mass if it should continue after all
their shot and all their shell, to bear high
in the air the standard of the Confederate
States.

$500, 900 slaves Sent Int
Georgia and AlabalaN !,

Gentlemen arrived in Washington from
Kentucky report that eighteen hundred
Thousand slaves have been run into 0sorgia
and Alabama alone, from Kentucky Ten
nessee, Louisiana and Mississippi by rebel
owners, TO escape the Union troops. :.
Great distress was occasioned by this
enormous influx of food consumers, and so
scarce had subsistence become, that even
corn bread was luxury and almost the
sole diet of every class. Apprehensions
arc entertained that general starvation
would snsue the coming winter, as the
supply was insufficient to feed the increased
number Of consumers, and the trsnsporta
ton Of food from Districts where it was
more abundant was impossible owing to the
dslapidsted condition of the railroads.

Better Far Slavery to the English OF
French-Gen. Magruder's Views.

From the Richmond Enquirer, Nov. Al
At flag presentation at Alexandra, La,
General Magruder spoke in very decided
tones. He is thus reported
There have been demagogucs who have
harangued you about this being the neh neh
mans war and the poor mans fight Inc
man who says SO is scoundrel! L use the
term understandingly and in it. broadest
signi6cstion. He is scoundrel, and your
worst enemy. You are fighting for your,
selves, to preserve yourselves from slavery
the most hateful to be conceived. The OBJ
iect of the Yankees is to enslsve this peo'
ple and place the white man beneath the
negro in the social scale. Better tar would
be slavery to the English, for thev are no
BILE and brave; better slavery to the French
for they are gallant and chlvalrous, aye
better to our own negroes for they at least
know what labor is, and would have some
compassion as taskmasters. Soldiers, re-
gard the man that talks to you about the
( rich and poor men as your bltterest enemy
When next such man comes among yoI
hang him to the highest tree you can lind
and l will stand by you.

The enemy are reported on the Stafford
Heights, near Fredericksburg, with consid
erable force of cavalry and artillery. 1t
is said that the movement has been made
to stop the Oonfederates from getting the
IRON on the track which the Yankees left
behind them from Fredericksburg to Aqua
Greek when Stafford was evacuated
Whether our authorities have, indeed, con-

, stratagetic Importance Of Lookout Val
ley.
The movements of the enemy at Chatta
nooga are still uncertain. Whether tn
occupation of Lookout Mountain or tn
crossing of the Rappahannock at Freder
icksburg by Sedgwick's corps indicates al
advance, or is merely feint to cover a re
treat, has not yet transpired; but when con
sidered in connection with the reported
retreat from Loudon, aud its occupation BY
our forces, We are inclined to believe that
Grant is preparing ''change of base' from
East Tennessee to some point more aceessi
BILE for supplies. This supposition becomes
more probable when it is remembered that
from Lookout Valley to Bridgeport his re.
treat could be more expeditiously made
than from Chattanooga. 5--5 G...T 1.-'
But whether for advance or retreat this
occupation of Lookout Valley is of impor-
lance. IF for the former, it demonstrates
that the enemy have recovered from their
defeat at Chickamsuga and taken the iuitia.
tive, always one of Importance in military
movements. 1t may be useless to inquire
why the enemy were permitted to regain
strength, morale and organization; and be-
gin ofesive movements, in the Immediate
front; under the very nose of General Bragg.
The vanquished, flying enemy, whom Gen.
Bragg reported to be pursued by our cav
airy" have turned upon the pursuers and
have occupied a threatening position upon
the flank of the victors. The enemy were
out fought at Chickamaugas thanks to the
army, but the present position of affairs
looks as though we had been out generated
at Chattanooga. We hope these, our sp.
prehensions, may turn out groundless, and
that the strategy of General Bragg may
prove equal to the prowess and gallantry of
his army; but We must confess that the
country will be as much surprised as pleased
should success attend our arms at Chatta-
nooga. ~
IF the occupation of Lookout Valley hy
the enemy has been made 10 cover retreat,
an opportunity for energy, strategy and
perseverance will be afforded Gen. Bragg,
which if promptly embraced and efficiently
pursued, will do much to reinstate him IN
the confidence of the army and the country.
As the risk is to be taken under Gen. Bragg,
We hope that every officer and private viii
exert his utmost endeavors to aid the Geu
eral in Overwhelming the enemy.
Whether Grant intends TO advance OF is
preparing to retreat from Chattanooga, he
must be defeated either on the south side
of the Tennessee or on his retreat to Nash
vile. The approaching winter warns both
armies that their present positions may be
their mutual destruction, and the spring of
1864 open on the wasted aud ruined rem
nants Of both.
The railroad from Bridgeport TO Jaspar,
if not as unreal and unsubstautial as the
taking of Lookout Mountain by the enemy,
may solve the difficulty of Grant remaining
in Chattanooga for the winter.
Thus, from the contradictory and unre-
conclsble reports of movements, it is i'm
possible to ascertain anything definite and
certain as regards the situation at Chatta
nooga. Our readers must exercise patience
and hope for the best.
