Reported Death of Gen. Joe Johnston From
R0secrahs' Army.

Rosecrans' Army.
WASHINGTON, Sept 26. q
There is in Washington general spirit of
cheeriulness regarding future military move
ments.
Nashville dispatch Of the 23d has a rumor
from rebel prisoners of the death of Mai Gen.
Joe Johnston in Sundays battle
The Star of this evening says the kilograms
received from Chattanooga since yesterday
indicate that the rebel army continues to re-
frain from molesting Gen. Rosecrans in his
present position. This fact tells forcibly of
the damage sustained by Bragg in the action
of Saturday and Sunday last.
Our best informed General officers here are
clearly of the opinion that the rebel loss was
considerably larger than eurs. We regard the
prospect of another attack on Rosecrans at
present as being substantially over. and expect
rather to learn in a few days that he has again
commenced to press them back on Atlanta.

LOUISVILLE, Sept. 20.
Gen. Burnside was at Knoxville Yesterday.
The military authorities here say that Burn
side did not know of the impending battle be-
tween Rosecrans and Bragg, and could not
have reinforced Rosecrans if he had The
battle had long been concluded before the
news REACHED Burnside.
A Kentucky ex-official left Morrisville on
Monday night, and Burnside was then forty
miles east Of Knoxville. Gen. Hartsuf is at
Knoxville. There are no rebels this side of
Greenville.
Gen. Burnside is entirely safe in his present
position, and by concentrating at Cumberland
Gap, can repel any force. His supplies are
abundant and not liable to be cut off. The
rebel telegraph line from the Gap to Norris
town, is not in order, but there is telegraphic
communication between Knoxville and Nor
