Allen confirms the reported wounding
of Forest at Tupelo. The rebels lost 1900
at the fight at Guutown with Sturgis. Col
Wisdom is among the killed. The most
of this loss is attributed to the desperate
fighting of our negroes, nearly all of their
victims being shot through the head or
breast.
Maj. Bradford, captured by Forest at
Fort Pillow, was ordered to be shot for
breaking his parole.
Allen knew nothing of the Presidents
amnesty proclamation, and says the rebel
soldiers are ignorant oft.
The Southern people think that if Lee
and Johnston are beaten, secession will
fidence in Johnston, and are heartily tired
of the dreadful pressure to which they are
subjected.
Forrest got 5000 nun in his conscript-
ing expedition into Kentucky.
Allen says that at the fight with Sturgis
on May I'd, at Bolivar, 500 men could have
captured all the rebel trains. Forrest has
been several times heard to say that he
did not wish 10 take the provisions, as a
large section of the country depended upon
it for supplies.

Raid of Gen. Rosseau.

hdlu OF 06us ISOboOdu'
New YORK, July 22d.--The Herald's
Nashville despatch says, Gen. Rosseau left
Decatur on the 10th on a most important
raid, with force of POO men, we'll mount
ed; 1000 of the command are armed with
Spencers repeating rifles. The route to be
taken is one that has never been followed
heretofore during the war, though nearly
identical with the trace pursued by Gen.
Jackson in the war against the Creek Indi.
ans. The first point of any importance on
the route is Blountsville, next Ashville, a
few miles beyond Ashville is Coosa river;
he is then to move rapidly upon the Telle-
doga and the nearest bridge or ford over
the Tallapoosa river. The route between
there and Woostram's is to be very rapidly
pursued aud the bridges are to be com
pletely destroyed. The passage of the
Tallapoosa will in all probability be made
at 0pelika and will bring the force into the
Dadeville mountain roads which will carry
it to the railroad at convenient points
when the work of destruction will begin.
There are bridges on the railroad be-
tween Montgomery and Opelika. 1t is
more than probable that there are num-
! Der of tunnels and bridges to be found
| in the valley between 0peliks and West
Point. There are two bridges over the Big
Hollowochee and Geonuppah Greek, near
Columbus. On the other route are three
bridges over the Wetumpka Greek and one
over Mill Greek.
Returning, after the destruction of these
roads, Rosseau is to move up the west side
of the Chattahoochie, if opportunity offers
and join Sherman between Marietta and
the Chattahoochie river. II this route is
threatened, he is so make straight for
Pensacola and take vessels to New Orleans,
and thence to Nashville again.

From Gen. Sherman.

LOUISVILLE, July 22,-To. days Nash
vile Union says:
A telegram received from Gen. Sherman
says the enemy attacked Gen. Thomas on
Wednesday fercely, and were handsomely
repulsed and roughly handled. The Union
adds that the two armies are now on level
ground and the fighting is more effective.
A despatch to the Herald dated Nashville,
July 22d, says.
The success of Sherman's movements in
cutting the eastern and southern commu.
nications with Atlanta, lead to the belief
that the rebels have been foiled in their
attempt to escape, and that their operations
at that place have already been narrowed
down to a seige.
Two large cavalry forces are known to
have left the army at different points and
have doubtless ere this cut the Macon and
| Columbus railroads in such a manner, thai
if the enemy succeeds in leaving to city to
go away, he must be at loss of much
valuable property.
A Worlds Washington special of the
22d says:
Dispatches from the west received here
tonight, announce the positive occupation
of Atlanta, which succeeded heavy en-.
gagement fought yesterday, between Sher.
man and Hood, in which the latter was de-
featei.
1t is now definitely known that Sher-
mans cavalry have destroyed the Railroad
south and east of Atlanta, in such an effec
tive manner as will prevent their use BY
the enemy.
There is no truth in the reported battle
at Leesburg, there being no rebel forces il
that vicinity.
1t is ascertaiued that the main portion o.
the rebel forces have fully retreated south
and our troops have ceased pursuit.

as rags and lamp black are in sufficient

GES. BUTLER does not retire to Fortress
Monroe, according to late order of the
War Department, but sticks Ikea tick to
the army at Bermuda Hundred, and is as
busy and as often heard from as any ac-
tive commander. Recent letters describe
the skill with which he pumps the truth out
of the rebel prisoners and deserters, and
this occupation he has lately diversified
with sort of missionary kite-hyin his
own invention, thHs described 10 an admit
ring letter TO the Tribune:
"Benjamin Franklin sent kite sky
ward, and brought down lightning. Ben
jamin Franklin Butler sends kites skywRrd
and drops down among the rebels flutter-
ing hundreds of copies of the Presidents
amnesty proclamation. The ingenuity of
the device is great in either case, but the
latter day Benjamin has a more praise
worthy purpose to serve. BE achieves pa
triotic end as successfully as the original
Benjamin did a philosophical one. The
hrst fruits were reaped day, viz. a num-

IT is difficult to make an estmaIo "a 'NS
present strength of our armies. The Sec
rotary of war either does not know or is
prevented from disclosing it by prudential
reasons. Senator Wilson, of the Senate war
committee, stated in a recent speech that
we had added 5000 men to our armiee
since last fall and if this is approximately
true we have now very nearly million
of soldiers under pay. A more reasona-
BILE estimate makes the present number
Csc, GOO. 1t is to be recollected that the
re.enlisted veterans, of whom there are
some 10000, merely supply their own
places. Mr.. Wilson probably counted them
twice to make out the figures. So when
stated that there have been actually fur
nished to the government since the war
commenced l 800 900 men under all calls,
and reducing the short terms to three
years service, he was right since all the
calls have covered over two million men.
Yet these figures mislead unless we keep
in view the fact that they cover the
same men twice, and some three times re-
peated. The three months men first called
out appears agaiu in the three years regi-
ments; so also many of the nine months
men; and many of the three years men
are again counted upon re-enlistment.-
Probably the number of men who have
actually served during the war would be
reduced considerably below a million and
half if we could get at the exact figures.
Thus the drain apon the population is not
as great as it seems at first sight. 1t is
argued that q population of % 900, 900
cannot sustain more than half a million
men in the field for any length of time,
and 1t is also the opinion of many of our
military authorities that that number is
sufficient for the most rapid and successful
prosecution of the war.
1t is to be taken for granted, in the alb
sence of proof to the contrary, that tn
government has taken into account tn
actual strength of our armies, the gres
losses of the present campaign, and tn
inevitable wear and tear that must cor
stautlY thin the ranks during the remainde
of the campaign; and that it has based ii
estimates for the future, not upon what
hopes to accomplish this summer and fall
but upon the superstition that we are onl!
to mako the same slow and steady en-
croachments upon the territory and powe
of the rebellion as heretofore. This is tn
only safe way of making estimates, and
sweeping victories by Grant aud Sherma
shall reduce the number of men necessar
to finish the war, so much the better.
is satisfactory to have the gOvernmer
overestimate its needs, rather than err o
the other side. The veteran regiments ar
daily returning to their homes; their los
must be supplied, and it will take NOR
than an equal number to make their place
good. The government may not expect /
get its full half million of recruits, thi
fall. but there is no doubt that what
ever number can be raised and forwarde
to the armies Immediately will be OF essen
tial service, So let us go energeticali
about the work OF recruiting.
