my of the Cumberland, the concentration of a superior rebel force in East Tennessee is scarcely probable, but the rebels are exceedingly anxious to repossess themselves of that important region, the tame relinquishment of which they have never ceased to lament. Their most desperate efforts, it is believed, Gen. Burnside will be enabled to thwart. The main army is where it was when the attack was made on Rogersville, in an impregnable position and in good spirits, subject to the orders of Gen. Grant, who is well satisfied with its situation. Dispatches from Memphis of the 8th report that the rebel General, Richardson, is committing very serious depredations in the Southwest. He cut up the Memphis Railroad a mile east of Salisbury, and the previous day cut the telegraph wires and burned three bridges. We learn from Cairo that the town of Inks was burned by the rebels after Gen. Sherman's troops had left that place. Miscellaneous. The Northern papers confirm the capture

d are fixed upon them; that their peaceful homes are looking to them for salvation, and the freedom and independence of the South for deliverance.--Let them know no enemies but the enemies of their country; let them banish all feuds and dissensions, till the great, controlling feud between them and the invaders is decided. It is an hour of fearful moment.--The destinies of this generation and of generations yet to come may be involved in this battle. How can any one think at such a time as this of anything but his country?--All personal considerations ought to be as dust in the balance compared with that.--The enemy, great as his numbers are, has no power to defeat us if we are true to our selves and our cause. Rosecrans, their military idol, has been dashed to pieces, and Grant will encounter his fate, if the Army of the West, sustained by the majesty of their cause, and the benediction of Providence, puts forth one mighty and consolidated effort for the deliverance of the land.

From Northern Georgia. Atlanta, Nov. 13. --Nothing from the front this morning. A party of Georgia State troops and Indians killed the notorious Bryson and thirty four of his men, a short time since, on the line between Georgia and North Carolina. A special to the Register, dated Sweet Water, Nov. 12th, says: "The Federals have removed all their supplies to Knoxville for safety, and are living on half rations. Several deserters, recaptured, were executed here yesterday." A special to the Intelligencer says: "Two Yankee officers, who deserted and came into our lines, report that Grant expects soon to assault Lookout. His army is on half rations."

confront each other intact. A correspondent of the Atlanta Confederacy, writing on the 20th, says: I notice in the few papers that now and then reach this elevated region that some despondency is felt by those at a distance concerning the situation of the campaign which extends itself along this great river. Will you believe me sincere when I say that I never felt more hopeful? I believe we shall winter around Nashville. If Gen. Longstreet gobbles Burnside, as I think he will, Grant must retreat from Chattanooga. And as sure as we get him moved we will keep him moving. The prospect is very cheerful. A large army, an animated spirit, a programme well arranged, nothing but extraordinary bad luck will foil our plans. It is true that we need Forrest. It is true that we shall miss Polk. It is true that Gen. Lee would inspire a deeper confidence. But it is equally true that things are not so bad as they seem, and that General Hardee's presence, his energy, his great ta
