DEAR REBEL;

to be in Alexandria, Va Sherman is rapidly

2Sth inst, from that gallant Cavalry Chieftan Col
G. G. Debrel, send you the following extract (yiz)
The enemy shelled our camp furioasly yesterday,
killing one Of the 9th Tenn Cavalry, Doc Aldrich
and one OF the 4th Reg't Tenn. Cavalry, driving
Gen. Wheeler's Ambulance off, wounding nine ar
tery men(l Scoley, of Freeman's battcry)-
They advanced and drove in the Infantry Skin
mishers, but did not drive in ours. They left 70
dead on the field, and when the infantry establish
ed their lines they reported finding thirteen fresh
graves in addition. Our battery had an cnflading
FIRE upon them. Cheathsm and Cloburn repulsed
the enemy with considerable loss. Their loss

place on our right during the enemy's assault upon
Chatham and Cleburn, aud during which the llth

Saa- correspondent requests us to call the at
tention of our farmers to the fact that the straw Of
wheat and rye, usually considered worthless by
them and wasted, when cut up and mixed with oats
or makes excellent food for mules and horses.
The suggestion is worthy Of attention as the scar
city of forage with, us makes it matter of impor-
lance. Every bushel of corn thus saved will ems
bic the farmer to supply that much more for the
subsistence of hts neghbors and the army The
straw can be easily saved by throwing it up into
largo piles or stacks, and it will keep without in
jury for years.

GEY. Pillows ComfAND,-We learn from an
intelligent gentleman just from Gadsdcn Alabama,
that the advance Of Gen Pillows command had
fallen back to that place on Saturday morning last
from Lafayette, Ga, where they had an affair with
the enemy, Large endorsements coming up, while
the fight was going on they were compelled to fall
back, The failure of the expedition is attributed
by Gen. Pillows officers to lack of artillery, not
one piece Of which they had. Majors Redwood
aud Lewis were killed in the fight at Lafayette
Pillow lost about 100 men killed and wounded aud
hronght on 100 prisoners.

A despatch received at Washington. from
General Sherman, on Monday, at midnight,
states that he was fighting for the possession
of.Rocky Faced Bridge, and that Mcpherson
had taken Snake Creek Gap, and was within
seven miles Of Resaca, on Tuesday morning.
On Saturday the Rebels were forced from
Tunnel Hill by General Thomas, and took
a position at Buzzard's Roost in bend OF
Mill Creek, just north of Dalton.
This is represented to be q very strong
position, which Gen. Thomas was unable to
drive the enemy from on a former occasion,
when he advanced on Dalton: but Resaca
is position on the railroad about fifteen
miles south of Dalton, and this will place
Mcpherson with strong corps of veteran
troops in the rear of the enemy, while
