From the Nashville Union, June 2ist
We have Just received information that,
on the 10Th, Hooker attacked Lost Noun
tain, and carried a portion of the rebel
works, capturing over 1000 prisoners and
II cannon. About 400 of the prisoners are
here now, and others are expected soon
The position captured by Hooker, and he
now holds it, is of the highest Importance
as It is on the extreme let Of the rebels;and
opens the way for flank movement, which.
hitherto has been extremely difficult. If he
succeeds in driving the rebels from their
works entirely, they can be thanked with
ease. aud compelled to evacnate their pres
ent strang, and we may add, last position,
for they can make 10 successful stand south
of it. If they cannot hold their present
works, they can have little hope OF making
stand anywhere,
Scholield, at the same time, attacked and
captured Pine Hill, highland between the
Lost and Kenesaw Mountains, fFon the top
of which Sherman counted the houses IN
Marietta. The rebels were driven from their
| works at the point Of the bayonet, and many
were captured. This position was subse-
oucntly abandoned by our forces.
The gcason for the abandonment OF the
HILL was this; Until Lost Mountain was

be constantly exposed to calling hire both

and will fall into our hands without
struggle, when we get possession OF Lost
Mountain.
A large number of small arms Were
picked up on the field, thrown down by the
retreatiup rebels. OF the number we have
no accurate information.
We have no estimate Of the killed and
wounded on either side, but presume it was
large. The advantages gained are substan~
tial, and must lead to others OF sill greater
importance,
i'he rebel lines are very strong, extend
ino from Lost mountain to Black Jack
Mountain, thus covering both Marietta and
the railroad. There are rumors OF battle
on the 18th, bnt we have received no COLI
