From tho Richmond Whig, Nov. SOL
For the first time In a great battle, Confed-
erate troops have been put to flight by the
enemy. There Is no doubt we were greatly
outnumbcrcd, but this disadvantage was
largely compensated by our superiority Of
ground. We held Lookout Mountain and
Missionary ridge, positions very strong natu-
rally. and rendered, Wcpresume, still stronger
by art. Gen. Bragg must have considered
them well nigh impfegnablc, else he would
not have chogen the occasion when the enc
my. ali along superior to him in nunbere, had
been heavily reinforced, to send OF large
detachment Of his own army on distant cx-
petition. There will hardly be any division
Of opinion as to the cause Of the unwonted
md most painful spectacle Of a whole wing
Of Confederate army giving way under the
onsets Of their Yankee assailants, and break
ing into disorderly flight
Unprecedented rs Is the melancholy occur
renee, It cannot have tnken the epub1ic by sur
prise, for, however little the people may m
common sense teaches them that confidence
in the capacity Of the commander is an essen
tinl element Of SUCCESS to an army. We find
no fault with Gen. Bragg. Doubtless he did
the best he could. It is no fault Of his that
he has held command for Which he was in
competent. We give him credit for gal1antry
as o soldier and devotion as u patriot-if It
did not please his Maker to cndow him with
tho great and rare faculties that constitute
tie successful military 1cadcr, no Just mind
will find In that defect cause for denunciation
or ccnsure.
We are frank to confess that we arc filled
with very grave npprehensions us to the con-
sequences that may flow from this reyerse.
If the army under Bragg could not hold
Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge, We
arc forced to ask ourselves what positionis If
there between them md Atlanta, or the
ocean, they can hold? What position Il
Longstrcct left in, and how can he mite
himself again with the army Of Bragg, unless
by an immense circuit through Virginia? But
it Is likely the enemy mny not feel safe In
advancing at this time, md TINT before they
arc disposed to venture, adequate prepara
ton may have been made to meet them and
hurl them back. Let rs ut least hope so, ani
By every means at command cndeayor t6

T. P. S.-Later information raises doubt n
to the accuracy Of the statement that tht
enemy are pursuing. Grnnt Is said to be fol

energy, despite the loss Of "20, 0oo'' men, I

There can be no true democracy while
treason keeps its armies in the field, excep
a0ar democracy. The of6ce-hunters, who at 9
time like this preach peace, in the North, may
be democrats in name, but in reality they are
tories and traitors, who would be in arm:
against their government were they living ii
the so-called Confederacy."
This is not the judgment of "fanatic,' and
a Republican. 1t is not the utterance of even
a Northern man. A Democratic journal in g
slave State thus characterizes that which is
growing to be the controlling faction of the
Democratic party of the North. Such jour
nal has a right to rebuke its Northern allies
Its denunciatlons must fall like Goals of FIRE OF
the stories and traitors"

THE LAST NApoLEoNIC IDEA.-1he very
latest idea of Napoleon's inventive and fertile
brain in reference to settlement of American
affairs, is, as stated by one correspondent,
" that Commissioners be delegated by the Fed
eral Government and by the Southern States
to meet on neutral ground and confer together,
without hostilties being suspended, so that
they may advise mutual concessions, and eff
feet reconciliation so desirable for the interests
of the world"
Not a bad idea in the abstract, but we fear
the leading rebels must experience g change
of heart before Nap. will be able to induce
them to put it in practice on their side upon
any such basis as making " mutual conees-
sionsn To have made it palatable to the reb-
els and their northern sympathizers, he should
doubtless have based it upon the ground of
g mutual" concessions all Oh the part OF the
north, and recognition of southern indepen-
dence.
