ENEMY CROSSING THE TENNESSEE.
Fr0In information which We deem reliable,
It would appear that the enemy are cross-
ing the Tennessee river below Bridgeport,
IN 'arge force, and it is anticipated thai the
battle which caanot- be delayed for many
days longer: will take place in Northwcs-
tern Georgia. This movement of the enes
my is tor the purpose Of aaaking Cha;ta :
nooga, and compelling Bragg TO abandon
tha, al most itnpregnable position whether
he will succeed or not, cannot yet te dc.

The movements of the enemy in East
Tennessee was evidently mere feint of
which we have reason to believe that Gen.
Bragg was aware, and has acted according
to this idea.
The advance Of the enemy towards Ccor-
gia Is desperate move of theirs. Eoac-
Grams is playing game that must either be
successful in every respect or he will have
his army entirely destroyed.
We are not aware 10 any extent of tho
preparations being made TO receive the enc,

has been periormed.--Aaap,a hteiligea-

Capt. Choice, ION fariough from the army. J

speaking line--my course lately being mole In
action than in speech, but I can tell you u few
soldid trntfs. Ia the army we have little or
no disirust our failures and suferincs hay
been rather an incentive TO new exertion Than
cause Of distrust. In my command CON
only find two who have ever expressed doubts
Of our full aud entire success, only two Who
think rrr cause ip danger. The. soldier, sir,
feels tha.tha Time for comprot,fsc fs past, hat
we must now fgat or die. Ny men returning
from their homes. (having been furloug gbed,
ask me, why isif, Captain. that the folks at
l.cme think We are whipped. why do they so
despoadF their neighbors refuse them bread
and say we had better come home and make
bread FIR our little onss, for we are as good as
whipped. er
Itell you. gentlemen, there is something

out, and drive them from you: come to the

Come TO The army and see men determined to

their cause and in n good God. There We fear
not the foe. aRd all We ask is that you will

Air. Bobc ssid that he did not expect any
disagreement ir the house in reference to the
resolutions. There was no one who indiyidu-
ally would refuse to sustain both the soldiers
and the refugee families; but the evil was
that every ono looked for his neghbcr to act
bsfore he acted himself. He called upon all
