LOUISVILLE, August 22.-The Nashville
Times contains report that Wheeler's for
ces had crossed the river above Chattanooga,
though the report that he had gone to East
Tennessee is discredited.
It is reported that train from Knoxville
to Chattanooga has been captured near
Cleveland, and an empty train from Chatta-
nooga to Atlanta, on Thursday. The Knox
vile Notifications can resist effectually five
times Wheeler's force.
Gen. Stedman's wound was only slight
scratch under the eye. He drove the reb-
els FIVE miles and retuaned to Chattanooga.
"A discreditable report had prevailed at
Nashville that the rebel Gen. Buckner had
been killed in recent battle.

Rebel Authorities Anxious TO Ex-
change PrisOners-Our Govern
ment AIefuses-Gen. Payne's Ex-

CAIRO, Aug. 21.-The New Orleans Era
of the 18th says: Acting Master John Dill
lingham, captured off Sabine Pass year
and half ago while in command of the
ship Morning Light, arrived in that city,
having been paroled by Gen. Magruder, to
effect his own exchange for Captain Chas.
Fowler. He reports the rebel authorities
anxious to exchange his whole crew, who
have been marched from Camp Gray to
Shreveport, three hundred miles, and pa
rolled for exchange, but subsequently sent
back to Camp Ford, near Tyler, as the Fed
eral authorities would not receive them.
There are about thirty-siX hundred prison.
ers in Camp Ford, in a crowded, unhealthy
state Captains Crocker, johnson and Nor
gan, of the gunboats Clifton, Sachem and
Signal, with their commands, are still in
Camp Ford, anxiously waiting exchange.
Gen. Payne, with portion of hisexpedi-
ton against Johnson's guerrillas returned
to Paducah at noon. A large number of
cattle, considerable salt and other supplies
taken from steamers at Sabine Bar, were
recaptured. Many horses and mules were
also captured from rebels in the country
through which the expedition passed, and
brought to Paducah.

idnn's Position.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22-The Tribune's spe-
cial says: Warren has intrenched his COM
mand and has been reinforced, and intends
to destroy thoroughly the Weldon railroad.
Exactly one half of all the rebel force in
Virginia is in the Shenandoah valley await
ing Sheridan. The other half holds the line
from Petersburg to Richmond.
A letter of the 11th from the rear of Fort
Morgan states that Granger received heavy
reinforcements from Gen. Heron, and re-
Inducements had been sent to Pensacola
Fort Morgan is now besieged by land, and
the fleet were to lombard IL on the morning
of the 18th. The rebels burned all bui'd-
ings, hospitals, &C., outside OF Fort Nor
gan. The rebel gunboat Gaines was burn
ed, and the monitor Manhattan threw sew
eral shells into the fort, dismounting one
gun, prior to our forces landing. .-
The Times special from Washington the
2lst, says: Sheridan changed his position
In order the better to watch the passes of
the mountains. The great number of points
which he is compelled to coverimposes up
on him more conservative military policy
than he would otherwise adopt. The rebel
force at Martinsburg Is an inconsiderable
raiding party, and will not interfere with
Sheridan's programme, which will be some
thing more than defensive. 10

The above table.shows the deficiency on

The above table'shows the deficiency on
the 10th of August. The total deficiency
of this district is 2,7s2. We learn that the
Governor, who has just returned from
Washington, has secured credit of 1900
for the State, on account of the one hundred
days men, and that he also procured
credit of about 1l,OOO for former surplus,
making total credit to the State of about
10000, which will give this district credit
of over 1000, of which each sub-district
will receive its proportion. We were un-
able to procure the exact figures on these
credits at the Provost Marshal's office last
evening, but were informed that the above
estimate is nearly correct.

New YORK, Aug. 22.-The increasing de-

curities continues to enhance their price. A
number of foreign houses have In hand
large orders for the 5-20's. The 10-40's also,
1t is reported are likely to be in demand for
European markets. We learn that at pres
ent the unexecuted foreign orders for Ma
ti0nal securities amount to about ten million
dollars.
Gold opened at 1861, after selling at 25714;

The Position at Atlanta.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-The Commercial
prints the following special:
Late advices from before Atlanta via
Nashville, state that the rebels have $1,000
troops at Atlanta, including 10000 Georgia
militia. Their works are fifteen feet high,
with deep bitches, abattis and wire traps.
Sherman has felt their lines to the extent
of twelve miles, with view to turning
their position, but thus far has been unable
to effect his object. Their lines are proving
equally strong at all points.

From Mobile --- Granger within
Five Hundred Yards Of Fort

New YORK, Aug. 22-The New Orleans
Era of the 18th has the following from Mo-
bile: The steamer Keytonia, from Mobile
bay, arrived this morning. We learn by
this arrival that the land forces of General
Granger are within five hundred yards of
Fort Morgan. The fact that the enemy
does not fire is considered proof that the
fort will soon surrender.
Mortar and other batteries, with the gun
boats, are ready to begin the bombardment
as soon as the word is given. The surren-
der of the place is hourly expected.

Mobile paper of the 7th notices the arrival

To SUBSCRIBERS AND FRIENDS,

From and after Monday, July II, 1864,
we shall charge for THE DAILY OHIO
STATESMAN, and for THE TRI-WEEKLY
STATESMAN, the prices below specified. We
have not before made any material advance
in our subscription rates. Within two
years, the cost of publishing daily news
paper in Columbus has increased nearly
one hundred per cent. The price of white
paper has advanced to twenty cents per
pound, and is still going up-being more
than double what it used to sell for; the
price of type-setting is more than fifty per
cent. higher than it was; press-work is one
hundred per cent. higher; rents and fuel
have doubled, and every other item which
enters into the cost of publication has ad-
vanced in like proportion. To meet these
increased expenses, we raised the price Of
advertising as much as practicable; but the
late sudden advance in the cost of white pa
per leaves no alternative but an advance of
subscription rates.
1t will be seen that the new scale of prices
is an increase of but twenty-five per cent
on the old rates, while the cost of publica-
ton and ofliving has increased nearly four
times that amount. We purpose to return
to the old standard of rates, whenever the
price OF sprint and labor shall fall enough
to render it possible. We believe that no
minded reader will object to the new
rates, nor consider them more than right
and necessary under the circumstances:

Letter from Grand Ronde.

OG'N. Sept. 18th, 1864.
EDS. STATESMAN Every branch of industry
and enterprise in this valley, so far, have given
such general satisfaction that our citizens, not
unwisely are about to institute measures to pro-
vide more permanently for future wants and re-
quirements.
The county as it now is, with the Capital sit
uated at Auburn, causes not little inconven-
ence to parties having business to transact at
the county seat. A move is being made to eff
feet division Of the county, while the present
Legislature is in session. The citizens of lie
Grande are circulating petition for the dlvis
ion of the county and locating the county seat
at Le Grande. Here will be a clashing of in
tefests. A division of the county is necessary,
and WILL of course, be granted, and "Union
Town" will doubtless contend, with just claim
for the county seat, with the support of eagle
Creek and a large portion of the citizens of
the valley. If that august body-the Oregon
Legslature-will but grant a division of the
county they can arrange it very easily and am
cably between the rival towns of Union and lie
Grande to which is the most central, by a
reference to the late surveys of Grand Ronde.
Those lie Granders whOle-souled, Jolly
set of fellows, but their ''Emigrant Town, RI
say "Emgrant for nearly all the trails and
roads leading there are being fenced, save the
Emigrant Road, is too far from a central point
to be chosen for county seat. | think this
will be found to be what the matter is; It's too
far on one side.
The reports are very favorable from the mines
in the Eagle creek country.
Mr. John Marshall and two others, came into
the valley last evening from a prospecting tour
on the WallOwa, and returned this morning
They say the country looks very favorable for
gold They have not prospected any yet
The party left Walla Walla about ten days ago.
A Democratic Mass Meeting is to be held in
lie Grande on the 18th, to celebrate the ami
versary Of the adoption of the Federal Consti-
tuition, and most likely to ratify the nominations
made at the Chicago Convention.

THE IMMIGRATION.-The immigration
still comes pouring in Travellers from
Boise this week say that the road is literal
ly lined with immigrant wagons. The most
of them seem to be destined for the Will
lamette, though a great many are settling in
the Boise valley and other valleys east Of
the mountains, and others are coming on to
this place. Few have any conception of the
vast numbers that have left the States for
the west this season. For instance, we have
heard the number variously estimated at
from five to seven thousand wagons but
we are told by Mr.. Greathouse that he has
reliable information that thirty thousand
seven hundred wagons have passed Fort
Laramie, with over one hundred thousand
immigrants The larger proportion of them
have gone to Colorado, California and Mon
tana An immigrant told us the other day
that, omparatively, we had "not seen any
of the immigration yet destined for this val
ley" But we shall soon see what we shall
