Rebel Movements and Rumors

LOUISVILLE. October 3l.-rhe Jsayral slys,
despatch received at the headquarters as N4.h-
ville from Clarksyle, Tennessee, states that
Lieutenant Colonel Firth at Fort Donnelson
reports that a part Of Forests comm,ol, with
three guns,suuk a steamer aud barge lpaded With
army clo.hinv, at Fort Herman on the Tcuuc5-
sec river, ON Saturday.
The same despatch mentions that Cap ain Cut
ter, with twenty-five men, thg same day attacked
and drove across tho river sixty of Colonel Ma
loncs Rebel Cavalry, killing two and wounding
eight.
It's rumored that three hundred Rebels aro
threatening an attack on Pine Biu1 on the Ton
ncssce river.
The Democrat learns that on General Mere.
ditt's return TO padncah, on wednesday, he re-
cc.ycd dispatches from General Sherman and
from Columbus, stating that Forrest intended to
attacl, Paducah, and was menacing Columbus.
Scouts and deserters reported a large number
OF Rebels passing Dresden, Linton, Lexington,
Bhanty, and McSellersvilo. At tho latter place
heavy supplies were being accumulated.
All Of these places are within fity miles Of
1laysfold. Forrest is also known TO have been
at jackson with several thousand men. The dan
ger being imminent, on Wednesday night the
cavalry was safely Withdrawn from Maysneld.
The same night business men were advised to
pack up their stocks, and place them abroad the
steamers, which were detained for that purpose.
On the 9th scouts reported a Rebel force within
sixteen miles of the city, since which time no
intelligence of their movements has been re-
ceived.
Every business house is closed and the goods
removed to a place Of safety. Business Of every
kind Is suspended, and everything is prepared to
give Forrest warm reception. General Mere
dith will undoubtedly hold the place.
Buiords headquarters are at Shady Grove. lie
has eight regiments and three battalions, and
battery of Dahlgren guns. Orders were issued
for n concentration Of the force on the Tennessee
line, and TO prepare for a march on Paducah
Forrest, Chalmers, and Buford are all in COM
mand.
On Thursday dash was made upon Johnson
vile, and sixty head of cattle we're captured.
Yesterdays Nashville Union contains the fol-
lowing
"a rumor was in circulation yesterday that
Atlanta had been evacuated. We are authorized
to deny this absurd statement. The place is not
even in the slightest danger. There can be but
little doubt of the fact that Hoods army was, q
day or two since, near the Tennessee river, but
the Rebel leader hcsitates to attempt a crossing.
The news comes through refugees, and is very
contradictory and confused"

THE STATUS OF COLORED
PRISONERS OF WAR.
Correspond Between Generals
Grant and Lee,

The Richmond papers Of the 2Sth publish a
long correspondence between Generals Grant and
Lee in reference to the treatment of the negro
soldiers captured, particularly in regard to the
negro prisoners placed at work on the fortihca-
tons at Richmond, in retaliation for which
numbar OF Rebel ollcers were placed at work on
the Dutch Gap canal, under fire of the Rebel bat
teries. General Lee desires to know whether the
Union prisoners having been relieved from duty,
the Rebel prisoners would be restored to the
status of prisoners Of war.
lie goes on to define at length the policy Of the
Rebel Government in regard TO negroes who may
be captured lie says that free ne
gIOes and those enlisted in free States,
not owing service 10 citizens OF the COutederacY,
had been and would continue to be regarded and
treated as prisoners OF war. Those VINO had been
CAPTURED ia the Rebel States or who had ab-
seconded. and either enlisted or been forced into
tie military service Of the United States, when
CAPTURED and Identified by their former owners,
are 70 be restored 70 them the same as any otler
private property recaptured.
II c argues at length the constitutional status OF
slaves escaped or captured from Rebel citizens
and saws "that the right OF property in them is
not impaired by such transfer ana is resumed
upon their recapture." He refers TO the doctrine
held and enforced by the American Government
In tlc Revolutionary Warard In the last war with
Great Britain, and says "that the Confederate
Government will adhere to the same doctrine"
General Grant replies very briefly, declining 20
discuss the constitutional question, saying lhat ne
bas nothing 10 do with that, but says "that every
person who is mustered into the military service OF
the United States is entitled TO protection ana
when captured must receive the treatment due 10
prisonCrs Of war" and "that in every case that
comes TO his knowledge Of any dlierent trehtInenl
being received by captured Union soldiers, what
ever their color, retaliation will be made upon
Rebel prisoners in our hands. AS ne under.
stands from General Lees communication that
the prisoners referred 70 had been relieYeu from
work upon tbe Rebel foatihcatons, he has di-
rected the release Of the Rebel prisoners Ht Dutch
Gap From further labor"

The late frost had materially checked the yellow
fever, which is abatng. Medical authorities say

The reported death of Colonel Heaton and his
son is incorrect. Both have recovered
The number of deaths from fever will not

employees continue to be exempt from military
duty. The Rebel authorities are making every
effort to get every available man into the army.
About o thousand Of tho new leyies have been

bcrs about 10000.
There are but few troops apart from these
armies scattered over the South, and only forty
men as a Provost Guard at Fredericksburg,
Virginia.
There appears to be suficiency Of substantial
food, but uXunes cannot, at many places, be
purchased.
The gentleman says that thousands Of the
soldiers would, if they could, escape from the
military service, and that in some sections if an
opportunity offered, the Union feeling would en-
phatically manifest itself. He bought some gold
before he left Richmond, paying S2j in Con-
federate money for one dollar in coin.
After Early's defeat in the valley dollar in
gold could not be purchased for less than thirty
dollars in paper. He says no one out of the
Confederacy can havea correct idea of the gone
raj effects of the ravages of war; both as TO agr-
culture and trade.
