sesses additional interest
&" Last night the 18th corps holly entered on
this central campaign. Gen. Geary, some four
miles up the Lookout Valley, being attacked by
Longstreot, the llth corps about 10 O'clock
marched to his (Geary's) aid passing two steep
wooded hills about $50 feet in hight They re-
csiyed yolley from a rebel force which had
occupied and ntrenched their summit.
After dark, four regiments assaulted the east
hill, AMI without firing shot seldily advanced
by the lightof the moon and drove the rebels
out OF their rihc-pts and down the other slope
of the hill Thrty.one dead soldiers attest
the difficulty Of the assault, and the valor and
steadlness of our troops, which IN a night at
tack accomplished one Of the most brilliant at
tacks of the campaign. Only after walking over
the ground to day do fully appreciate the e1'
plot when those hills were taken. They marched
Ia the assistance of Gen Geary who had held
his position, and Longstreet was driven back
with slaughter, As prisoners from two divisions
attest that bis lL0ngstreet' whole disposable
force was engaged, the whole affair is most
credtable to those corps from tho Army oil the
Potomac.

1t Is not improper to say n view OF the stu.
alton that il is believed here that Burnside will
very shortly find himself menaoed by strong
force from Lees army via Lynchburg and Bris-
toll, Va, and that between the two forces, his
only safety will be to retreat, and the relin-
punishment of the whole of East Tennessee,
save he Chattanooga corner held by the army
of the Cumberland
If it is not to much TO expect, the army of
the Potomac is looked to here as the only iorce
that can save Burnside. 1t is hoped, il Lee
dares, as he certainly will, TO detach any moro
OF his troops Tor operations against Burnside or
Thomas, the army OF the Potomac will ind

suits now feared
