scuoF1E1D's MOVEMENTS,
At the same time that Hooker assaulted
Lost Mountain, Scho6eld attacked and car
Ited Pine Mountain, little to the left, CON-
pletely driving the rebels from thesr works.
Gen. Sherman ascended TO the summit, aud
obtained full view Of Marietta, and re-
mained there ior m hour or more; but the
position was 60 raked from the works sslli
retained By the rebels on Lost Mountain. and
also from the left, that Schoaeld was orlef-
I'd to return to his old place. Hooker still
holds the ground he gained, and presume,
ere this, has driven the rebels from the
mountain
I hare heard no estimate of schotaeld's
1oeses, nor Of those Of the enemy opposite
him; ouly know that he took ehout l50
prisoners and three guns.
