THE WAR In GEORGIA.
WASHINGTON, May 10.

w aShiNhlON, May Nv.
TO Major General Dir:
A despatch from Gen. Sherman, re-
ceived at midnight, states that we are
fighting for the possession of Rocky
Face Ridge, and I have knowledge
that Mcpherson took the Snake Creek
Gap, and was within seven miles OF
Resaca this morning. You will re-
member that on Saturday the rebels
were forced from Tunnel Hill by Gen.
Thomas. and took o position at Buzz
yards Roost, in bend of Mill Creek,
just North of Dalton. This is repre-
scented to be very strong position,
which Gen. ThomaS was unable to
drive the enemy from on former oc-
casion, when he advanced on Dalton
But Resaca is a position on the rail
road about fifteen miles south of Dali
ton, and this will place Mcpherson
with strong corps of veteran troops
in the rear Of the enemy, while Gen.
Thomas advances upon their front and
Gen. Schofield closes in on the flank
from Cleveland. 1t is probable that
great battle was fought on that line
yesterday, and may be now in prog
ress. Gen. Joe Johnston commands
the rebel forces. L. NJ. STANTON,
Secretary of War.
News from Chattanooga, as late as
the 18th, states that We have lost 500
men in killed aud wounded in recent
fights near Dalton, but that the enc
my's loss is greater, and that the reb-
els were being gradually driven back.
LArER.-Thc news from Gen. Sher-
mans army continues good. The
same fashion prevails in Georgia as
in Virginia. Gen. Thomas has taken
Dalton, capturing 5000 prisoners and
IL guns. The rebels retreatcd in dis
order to Resaca and Rome. Our for
ccs were in pursuit.
A dispatch received from Gen. Shcr-
man dated near Rcsaca, May l4th,
states that by the flank movement Of
Rosecrans, Johnson had to evacuate
Dalton, and our forces were in his rear
and flank. The weather was good and
the troops arc in fine condition, all
working well and as fast as possible.
Schofeld's army moved from Bulls
Gap in East Tennessee. on the Cd inst.
and after four hours fighting on the
4th, the rebels retreated, tho Union
troops pursuing them into North Car.
