every part Of the rebel Programme will be
checked Our euhboass are watching aloay
tue riyer to prevent the latter movement,
ana In Prices rcar, Mower and Stee1e's forces
loom as vision Of juagnebs which will
overtake ard punish this rebel audacityr r-aud
make their ruin the moro complete from their
having come N,'rth to courtlt~
From Nashville thu dispatches giye lmpor-
tant details OF the rebel raid on 5hernan's
communications, and mike it vary likely TINT
sou sharp fighting will tc required to turn
tie rebels back deiested. Gen/Rouseeau is
q cool, cautious but vigorous fighter, and
will choose best the. time and place to pun
ieh Wheeler and Forrest It is undeniable !
that this rebel raid Is chosen at time that
Sayors their plans. We were shown letter |
from she front yesterday which says tnatt the
Tennessee river was never 50 low thie sum- |
mer, and easily ford6ple. ct numerous points,
thus depris1ng our army Of the cooperation
of the gunboats.
Happily in the interim Of filling cur armies
with the results Of the ttan. and volunteer
ing under the present call, the loyal North
west can eend fresh from their brief term Of
Beryice in the field her One Hundred Day
troops, with hnnds just un1oosed from the
muskct- At the call Of the Government
thty will clasp their weapons once more
and demonstrate wonderful good fortune
Tor the loyal cause in the fact Of the exist
cnce Of this organized force at this junctnre.
Grant aud Sherman will not pause. nor need
tier look behind them. The loyal North
will eend men to hold the fields won by the
ralor CT our now advanced lines. 1t will be
eeeu that several Of our Illinois hundred
day regiments bare been sent to
St Louis, while the same organi-
cations in Indlera and Ohio will be
poured down acroks Tennessee to strengthen
Rousseau. All is going on veil, and the
rebel armies will be wasted all the faster
from their having increased the wearing eur-
faces.
Both In TENNESSEE and Missouri the rebel
leaders are vigorously pursuing s5etem OF
wholesale conscrIptien and this will prove
q valuable recruiting agency for u.s. Multi
tudes Of mrn are pouring iLto our lines to
escupe 1cbel tyranny, ind encouraged to en-
ter cur .arks to drive back the invaders OF
their homes, fa< both in Tennessee aid Mts-
eouri confidence in the Union cause has
grown apsce. But with all these aspects 1t
viii not do for loyal men to he m!sled into
vain or foolieh confidence by the present
.cleering tokeus. Thc demand CT the hour
is for men, more men, and the need IL made
preesIngby the desperate attempts OF cur
desperate cuemy.
