LoU1svILLB, Sept. SIN ans wer to request
details Of late operations before Atlanta, in
order to silence the cavils Of those who, in the

operations Were, on the whole, a Federal sue

"ATLANTA, Sept. 7.-On the 25th Of August,
pursuant to plan Of which the War Depart
ment had been fully advised, left the Goth
corps at Chattahooche bridge, and, with the
balance OF the army. drew of from the siege,
and using some considerable artifice to mislead
the enemy, moved rapidly south and reached
tne west Point railroad, near Fairborn, on the
27th, and broke up twelve miles Of it, when,
moving eas., my right approached the Macon
railroad, near Jonesboro, and my left near
Rough and Ready, the enemy attacked the
right wing OF the Army Of the Tennessee, and
was completely beaten on the 1st, and during
the combat pushed the left of the centre ra-
pidly toward the railroad above, between
Rough and Ready and Jonesboro, on the lst of
We broke up about eight miles Of the Macon
road, and turned on the enemy at Jonesboro,
assaulted him and his lines, and carried them,
capturing Rrigadier General German and
about two thousand prisoners, with eight guns
and much plunder. Night alone prevented
our capturing all Of Hardee's corps, which es-
capped south that night That same night,
Hood. in Atlanta, finding all his railroads
broken and in our possession, blew up his am
muDition, seven locomotives, and eighty cars,

for that purpose, Major General Slocum COM
manding; we following the retreating rebel
army to near Lovejoy's Station, thirty miles
south of Atlanta, where, finding him strongly
entrenched, concluded it would not pay to
assault, as we had already had the great OBJ
jects of the campaign, viz: Atlanta. Accord
ingly, the army gradually and leisurely re-
tuIed to Atlanta, and it is now encamped eight
miles south of the city, and, tomorrow, will
remove to the camps appointed.
81 am now writing in Atlanta, so I could
not be uneasy in regard to our situation.
1--WE have, as the result of this quick, and,
as l think well executed movement, 81 guns,
over 5000 prisoners, and have buried over 400
rebel dead, and left as many wounded that
could not be removed. The rebels have lost,
besides the important city Of Atlanta, stores,
at least 500 dead $500 wounded, and :, 600 pris.

up 1,50O If that is not success, don't know

The New York Tribune contains the follow.
ing dispatch:
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,
Sept. This beautiful morning may be the
opening Of a day Of blood. A battle seems i'm
miDent-seems inevitable. The rebel army has
ment, and was yesterday crawling steadily
into position most precarious to them, though
they knew it not. Measures have been taken
to checkmate their wild scheme and before
draw or be driven back.
At least the public may confidently look for
stirring news from this quarter Immediately.
Our recent successes here and everywhere
have infused new pride and spirit into this
army, that will now prove itself worthy Of
the admiration and trust expended upon 1t by
q patriotic people. Assisted by the confidence
and support Of the North, its career will not
be curbed by disaster till final victory Is
grasped. Yesterday was full of busy prepar-
ations for victory in the coming struggle.

THE CROPS OF THE CoUNTRY.-The bi.
monthly report Of the Agricultural Depart
ment at Washington says the rains which have
recently fallen have dispelled the fears which
were entertained for the fall crops. In regard
to the corn corp, the returns shows that on the
first day of August in Illinois, the great corn
producing State of the country, its condition
was an average one; in Iowa, two-tenths above
such average; in Indiana, three and one third
tenths below; in Ohio, one and one-half tenths
below; in Wisconsin, one-half tenth below.
But, taken into consideration the effects of the
rains which have recently fallen, there is
nothing to Justify apprehensions of scarcity in
any OF the great cereal products. 1t is be-
leved that the loyal States will have pro-
duced enough for abundant home consump.
ton, and supply the usual foreign demands
for our cereals. There will be q considerable
increase OF sorghum crop, a decrease of tobac-
co; flax and beans largely increased. The
grain crop has been unusually well secured,
and a ton of it this year is estimated as euuai
to ton and half of last years product. The
wheat crop is excellent in quality, and thus
far reduces Its loss to between 13 and Ia per
cent. below the crop of 1863, one of the largest
ever grown in this country. These accounts
are made up from returns from every part of
every State. The October report will show
exactly what the crops of the year have been.
The only crop about which there is any doubt
ls that OF potatoes. The weather is now favor
able TO their growth.
