Hoods Movements.

NASHVILLE, Nov. 1.-Since his repulse at
Decatur, Hood has moved further West
along the south side of the Tennessee. He
Is believed to have crossed some of his in
fantry at or near Bainbridge, twelve miles
above Florence. No part of his force has
he moved further north. Rebel rumor here
has reported that he is coming this way.
His purpose is difficult to ascertain. With
a strong Federal force i'm his front, flank
and rear, fears as to his making demon
stration in this quarter are simply ridicu-
lous. Undoubtedly his movements are
prompted by desire to effect the coming
elections. Gen. Thomas is in the city and
prepared for any movement Hood may make
In this direction. Strong bodies of troops
are moving in proper positions.
The Union feeling here is one of strong
hope that Hood will place himself in posi-
ton from which it will be difficult to extri-
cate himself.
Sherman can't be coaxed or bullied out of
Atlanta, but will continue to hold it at all
hazards.
Forrest, with a cavalry force, is reported
threatening Johnsonville, where are large
quantities of Government stores.
Three transports were destroyed by part
of his command. Ample preparations have
been made to hold Johnsonville and effect
ually repulse any force the rebels are NOV
ing against it.

Sheridan Preparing for Operations
in West Virginia.

New YORK, Nov. 1.-According to the
Herald's dispatch, the attention of General
Sheridan seems to be particularly directed
to the apparent designs of the enemy to
attempt some important operations in West
Virginia, and he is making his preparations
accordingly. The rebel Gen. Breckenridge,
who is now in Southwest Virginia, is re-
ported to be busy in reorganizing his forces,
with the supposed intention to distract the
attention of the Union army from Early,
who, according to rebel newspapers, is to
remain in command in the Shenandoah
Valley.
Arrangements for the safe supply of Gen.
Sheridan's army have been perfected, and
such guards for trains going to the front
will hereafter be provided as will insure
them against guerrilla attacks.
A correspondent of the Richmond En-
quirer gives a graphic description of the
defeat and stampede of Early's army on
the 10th of October, at Cedar Creek. His
loss of tifty-seven cannon is admitted.

The Enemy Break Trough tho Pick @ t.
of the I'd and 5th COrps-Thcy Charge
Our BreastwOrks and Capture a
Number of Prisoners.
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,
oct; 3O.-The utmost quiet has prevailed
to-day.
October 3lst, A. M.-The rebels at
tempted to play sharp trick last night on
our lines, which was only partly successful.
The main object of the attack was defeat
ed with considerable loss to them. At the
point of connection between the I'd and 9Th
corps pickets the rebels made an entrance,
passing from one post to another, taking all
the men prisoners. They then sent for
ward heavy force to charge the line of
breastworks, in hope of piercing our CEN
tel; but our men had meanwhile formed
behind the works and received the rebels
with such force as drove them back in con-
fusion with heavy loss. Repeated attempts
ended with like results, though firing was
kept up all night. Our loss is put down at
1897 men captured;. the killed and wounded
were very few. The encmy's loss must have
been heavy, as they advanced within range
of our batteries. though, it being dark, our
men had not good range.

SOMETHING MORE ABOUT THE New DEAF
AND DUMB ASYLUM ExERCIsEs.-TheS Sec
ond Presbyterian Church of Columbus and
several Republican leaders, seemed to mo-
nopolize the doings connected with the lay
ing Of the Corner Stone of the New Deaf

and evening-just as if members of other
denominations and of another party were
exempt from taxation to pay for the build
ing about to be erected Among the arti-
cles deposited in tin box, securely laid
in an opening made for the purpose, UNDER
meath the corner stone," were the following:
The Emancipation Proclamation of Abra-
amh Lincoln; some Greenbacks; Likenesses
of Brough, Tod, Dennison, Lincoln and
Mrs. Lincoln, Seward, Chase, Everett,
Ben. Butler, Hooker, &c. We did not hear
the addresses; but we understand they
were by no means free from partisan allu-
sions, that were all out of place on an occa-
sion like this.

The Fighting So ,th of Petersburg
Rebel Account.

New YORK, Nov. 1.-The Richmond pa
pers contain accounts of the fighting south
don plank road, and also Gen. Lees official
report of the operations on both sides of
the river. The latter gives as the result of
the days engagement, repulses of the Union
troops at all points, with considerable losses
in Killed, wounded and prisoners. The
rebel papers say that the attacks of Gen.
Butler were easily repulsed, but admit the
movement of our left was surprise to Lees
men, in which they lost considerably in
prisoners. Soon, however, it is said, the
rebels rallied and drove back Grants men,
making prisoners of about 500. The fight
ing at this point is represented to have been
severe. a... r. '.,It

The Yellow Fever i'm Newbern-
The Charleston Mercury Elec-
tiOneering for Lincoln.

New YORK, Nov. 1.-Dates of the 9th
ult., from Newbern, N. c., have been re-
ceived. Lieut.. Brown, of the COmmissary
Department. reports the fever as having
considerably abated. A white frost had
occurred, which had asalutary effect. The
feveris represented as being of the most
malignant character, yielding very little to
medical treatment. A. ,.t-.
The Charleston Mercury says President
Davis, who has been opposed to making any
concessions whatever to the enemy, has
been finally prevailed upon to grant an ar
mistice to the North, provided it is solicited
in respectful manner. This proposed ar
mistice, if granted, raises the blockade by
land and sea, which will enable our people
to lay in large amount of supplies. The
deserters from our service will then be glad
to return, in order to receive their pay and
an honorable discharge, which will give us
an additional force of $4,000 veterans. Then
if hostilities are resumed, the South is sure
of success. Therefore we lose nothing by
granting this expedient to the Yankees,
who have openly confessed that they are
whipped by proclaiming the war on their
part a failure. .4r..

Fight With NHOsbY.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-Quite lively fight
occurred between force of Mosby's men
and portion of the Sth cavalry last Sun
day, in the neighborhood of Salem, Va
Mosby expected to surprise our troops, and
sent three detachments of his men to make
simultaneous attack, but he found them
ready for any hostile demonstration. The
consequence was, that the rebel chief was
routed. We lost but two or three men
killed and three or fonr wounded. The
rebel loss was more than double this, be-
sides fifteen or twenty prisoners captured.
E. S. Ellis has entered upon his duties as

The Evacuation OfAtlanta Denied
Object of Grants Movements.

New YORK, Nov. 1.-The Commercials
Washington special says: The President
positively denies the report of the evacua-
tion of Atlanta, and says Sherman, at last
advices said he would hold the place under
any circumstances. No movement that
Hood can make will endanger this impor-
tant point.
The object of Gen. Grants late movement
is said by officers just arrived from City

The LECTURE THIS EvENING.-The lee
ture upon the subject of Pagan and Chris
tian Families, to be delivered by the Rev.
Mr.. Smarius at the Opera House tonight,
will be of especial interest to the ladies, as
the speaker will illustrate the different po-
sitions of woman in Pagan and Christian
countries. We daily hear the most enthu-
siastic and eulogistic expressions of admi-
ration for the eloquence and learning of
Mr.. Smarius, and there will doubtless be
such an intellectual treat at the Opera
House tonight as we rarely have an oppor-
tunity of enjoying.
