The position of Rosecrans. --The Columbus Sun, of the 23d, in illustration of the position occupied by Rosecrans, says: Mission Ridge is an elevation of some four or five hundred feet, running parallel with Lookout Mountain, and extending from the Tennessee river several miles in a South-westerly direction. It is distaRosecrans, says: Mission Ridge is an elevation of some four or five hundred feet, running parallel with Lookout Mountain, and extending from the Tennessee river several miles in a South-westerly direction. It is distant from Chattanooga, at the nearest point, about four and a half miles. Rosecrans is represented as retreating in a westerly direction, his position now being on this Ridge, six miles from Chattanooga.

If his position has been correctly stated by our telegraphic reports, his left wing confronting our right is in a very defenceless condition, as there are as many as three roads crossing to Chattanooga, several miles Northeast of him, thus making a flank movement very easy on the part of our troops. That he has been badly crippled, we infer from the fact that he has taken a position on the highest point of the Ridge, several miles Southwest of the roads to

sted to protect them from attack when at the shore. On the 16th and 17th five transports ascended the river, filled with soldiers, and it is stated that a large body of troops have gone above Memphis, destined, it is supposed, to reinforce Rosecrans. Quite a heavy movement from the Big Black to Edwards's Ferry has taken place, some 3,000 having crossed. It is not supposed that this movement has any more important object than that of securing what cotton is left in that section — the ey can do but very little damage beyond what they have already done, and unless they come in much larger force — larger than they can spare, now that they are weakened by reinforcing expeditions on the other side of the river and sending men to Rosecrans--Gen. Lee's horsemen will be amply able to take care of them. The cavalry is admirably posted for prompt and effective action, only a few hours being required to throw half a dozen brigades into mass in front, leaving a competent force on

interest from the United States. We subjoin a summary of the reports from Tennessee: A correspondent of the New York Times, at Washington, states that Gen. Rosecrans, in his official dispatches, charges the loss of the late battle to Gen. McCook's disobedience of orders; in failing to occupy an important position that had an scarcely fall short of 1,700 killed and 8,000 wounded. Our loss in artillery will not fall short of fifty pieces." Quartermaster-General Meigs arrived at Rosecrans's Headquarters on Saturday, and, upon invitation, examined his position, and declares it cannot be taken short of a regular siege, which Bragg does not seem to be expedition against Mobile is being inaugurated, and the feint against Texas will not interfere with it. The same letter says Stoneman's corps is on the way to Rosecrans. The blockade runners Fox, Alabama, and Montgomery, were recently captured by the Federal cruisers in the vicinity of Ship Island. Efforts are being ma

The Yankee army of the Potomac. --It is evident that the Yankee army of the Potomac is not in a condition to take the field. It is believed that it has largely reinforced Rosecrans, and that it is only threatening in order to its weakness. The Washington correspondent of the Chicago Times assures his readers that its days are numbered: No more long marches (it says); no more fatiguing campaigns; no more sanguinary battles; no more thinning of ranks to reinforce the great army of the slain, no more jealous rivalry for the leadership; no more political warring and, conspiracy; no more victories or defeats — the record is made up. There only awaits to be written the account of the death struggle, and the history of the proud and great Army of the Potomac is complete. The ambition that has at one time and another inspired its successive chieftains; the relative merits of Scott, McDowell, McClellan, Pope, Burnside, Hooker, and Meade, its different leaders; the true and authe
