Latest from General Bragg. [from our Own Correspondent.] Dalton, Ga., Nov. 27th, 1863. --The army reached Ringgold last night without molestation until near the town, when our rear was attacked. The enemy captured Ferguson's battery, and inflicted considerable loss on Maury's brigade. We lost all the wagons of one division except those of Gen. Wright's brigade. To-day our army continuos its retreat upon Dalton. The head of the column has just arrived. There is considerable fire of infantry and artillery resulting, in repulse of the enemy. Their pursuing column consists of ten thousand men — mounted infantry. All the railroad stock at Chickamauga was saved. Such stores as could not be removed — not many — were destroyed. The people along the road are retiring with the army. Nearly everybody left Ringgold. The wagon roads are in a horrible condition. Sallust. [Second Dispatch.] Ringgold, Nov. 26, (via Dalton, Nov. 27.) --Among the <

The currency. The time for Congress to meet is rapidly approaching. The session will commence under circumstances calculated to cast a gloom over the deliberations of that body. The defeat of Bragg has, it is true, been anticipated by the whole country ever since it was seen that he designed not only to make no use of the victory which he gained over Rosecrans more than two months ago, but that he was deliberately waiting for the enemy to collect the largest force they could possibly co had ventured still further to increase the chances against him, by sending off the best corps of his army. Nevertheless the effect has been stunning to the people of the Confederacy, who had so lately been told from the highest place in it that Bragg would spend the winter on the Ohio. Meeting under such circumstances it is to be hoped that Congress will, if possible, forbear to waste the session in talk, and do something for the benefit of the public. The currency question will no doub

The late battle. A correspondent of the Knoxville Register furnishes the following particulars of the late battle near Chattanooga: The morning of the 25th came thick and foggy. During the night our forces had evacuated Look-out Mountain, and withdrawn to the right of Chattanooga creek. About 8 o'clock A. M. the fog cleared and revealed an immense force of Yankees along the base of Missionary Ridge. Gen. Bragg had vacated his quarters during the night, hence when the enemy opened their terrific cannonading on that point they found no game. The fight continued furiously during several hours, when comparative quiet reigned. We could not perceive the result, but from the fact that point is only four and half miles from Chickamauga Station, and that the enemy had not made any demonstration on that place, they could not have gained much advantage over our left. At 9 o'clock heavy cannonading was heard on our extreme right. Soon the battle raged furiously. General

Some of our wounded were left in the hands of the eohn E. Smith is reported wounded. Col. Avery, of the 102d New York, lost a leg, and Major Elliott is the same as dead. The following is the latest intelligence from Chattanooga published in the Northern papers: Chattanooga, Nov. 26.--Gen'l Bragg's retreat from his position of last night is represented as a perfect rout. Gen. Sheridan reached Chickamauga Station at 4 o'clock this morning. He captured 500 prisoners, four guns, and a number of pontoons. The enemy attempted to b
