War movements in Tennessee. Augusta, June 17. --A dispatch from Augusta, dated yesterday, says: The enemy, reported 10,000 strong, under Gen. Morgan, has fallen back from Powell's Valley towards Big Creek Gap, from the advance of our columns. Gen. Nagle's force, 6,000 strong, is reported to be advancing by way of Pikeville towards Kingston and Knoxville. It is supposed that Gen. Morgan is waiting for Nagle's arrival before risking a battle. The enemy in Sequatchie is reported as having attempted to cross the Tennessee river this morning, three miles below Shell Mound, but were, driven back by Col. Davis, with the Florida forces. Green Roberts, one of Morgan's men, made his escape from the Nashville penitentiary, and arrived at Chattanooga to-day.

were striking tents and taking up the line of march. At 10 o'clock whole acres of tents were visible, spread out in all their picturesque variety of a large encampment, and at one P. M., no tent could be seen in Corinth. Where this large army, now relieved of all encumbrances, enlivened and inspirited by motion, and the prospect of a fight, was going, none could tell. Some said the orders were to attack the enemy at daylight. Others declared they were going to North Alabama, and on to Tennessee and Kentucky. All was life and animation and movement, as regiment after regiment filed past my position. Presently the tent I had been sitting in was struck and packed with its contents in the wagon, and as I bid good by again to those I had last parted with on the Potomac, and saw their long line winding round and hidden by the woods, I turned back towards where my duties called me, and rode through the abandoned camps, wondering when I should meet the brave fellows again, and how many

e will proceed to act alone and on his own responsibility. This knowing Scottish editor even tells us what sort of proposition the Emperor will make. He will not propose the all possidetis, as we were fearful he would and as doubtless he would were England to take a hand in the work, and Lord Russell were allowed to have his way. In such an event, we of the South should be constrained to reject the proposition, let such rejection cost what it might. We would never consent to give up Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Western Virginia, and New Orleans, although by refusing to do so we should bring England and France both down upon our heads. We should be compelled to set them both at defiance, and, if we were able to do nothing else, at least to destroy all the cotton and tobacco rather than let them have it. This course we have already taken with the Yankees, and the Allies knowing it, would hardly proceed to extremities, thereby defeating the very object of intervention. The Emp

ons to his demonstrated faculty for organization. But it becomes necessary to state how little else had been done, why so little had been done, and to whom the country is indebted for what was done in February and March, and to its position before the world to-day. Whether more could not have been accomplished in Kentucky, nearly all of whose strategic posts were occupied by the enemy, we are not competent to judge. But it is clear to military authorities and to the country that Eastern Tennessee, whose people are the most loyal and the most distressed of the border States, might have been relieved, Knoxville taken, and the great northern line of communication between Virginia and the great sources of her supplies broken, weeks or months before General McClellan ceased to be Commander-in-Chief. The country patiently waited, because we believed it bore wise relation to some great military plan. The country saw the great Baltimore and Ohio Railroad not only abandoned to the
