Our move, already made, transfers it from about Atlanta to the country between Blue mountain and the Atlanta and Chattanooga railroad. Atlanta will never again be the scene of conflict. Over the mountain country of North Alabama, or upon another line further west, the war for the possession of Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama will be fought out. It is of much interest, then, to know the localities, distances and topography of the region which is to become historical by this struggle. The distance from Atlanta to Rome is about sixty miles; to Dalton, one hundr

miles southwest of Petersburg, and that the enemy, attacking our entrenchments, were six or seven times repulsed with heavy loss. They also report that Brigadier-General Dearing, of our cavalry, was killed. Three thousand prisoners and some guns it was likewise said we had captured. Though these accounts may be true, we cansterday, amounted to almost nothing. We have heard of only a few men wounded; and from the south side we have nothing we regard as authentic but the death of General Dearing. We of course, know nothing of the enemy's losses.

Resigning his cadetship at West Point, he begun the war as a lieutenant of the Washington (Louisiana) Artillery, rose to a lieutenant- colonelcy of artillery, was made colonel of cavalry, and then brigadier-general of cavalry. He was from Campbell county, Virginia. Later. A telegram, received last night from Chafl

It appears that Sherman has left seven thousand men in Atlanta, and that force is strong enough to forage on the surrounding country, with heavy guards to the wagon trains. A force of Confederates is on the suburbs of the city, and last week threw a number of shell into it, causing a good deal of drum-beating and bugle-sounding by the Yankees within. Our cavalry--one brigade, Armistead's,--had a fight with a body of Sherman's cavalry, near Rome, a few days ago, and lost three pieces of artillery, which they did not have time to run across the river.--Sherman was certainly at Rome on the 16th instant, which is as far as he can go without giving up railroad transportation.

om Westport, and was formerly known as Westport landing. On the opposite side of Kansas river is the town of Wyandotte. Independence is sixteen miles lower down the river, and is a place of some importance, having been for years past the out-fitting point and rendezvous for Santa Fetraders. Taking all the Yankee accounts into consideration, the enemy are on the retreat towards the Kansas line, and Price is following up with a portion of his army; at least a third of his command, including Clark, Shelby, Anderson and others, being engaged in operations on the north side of the Missouri river. Had there been any likelihood of the campaign of Price proving a failure, he would have seen it long since, and retreated before penetrating so far into the State. He has met with success at every turn. Volunteers have flocked to him, not by hundreds, but by thousands. Supplies of arms and ammunition, concealed for the past two years, have been untombed and borne into the fight by men w

Dearing, of our cavalry, was killed. Three thousand prisoners and some guns it was likewise said we had captured. Though these accounts may be true, we cannot commend them as trustworthy until further confirmed. We only know positively that, simultaneously with the demonstration or feint against our left, the enemy moved in heavy force against our right, southwest of Petersburg, and we think, in the latter case, brought on a fight. It is also certain the enemy were in motion in Pickett's front, extending from the neighborhood of Dutch Gap southwestwardly, and that there was a sharp skirmish there. The demonstration on the north side may have been a feint to cover the real attack on our right, beyond Petersburg, or the whole movement of the enemy may be but a preliminary to more serious operations, to be undertaken to-day or hereafter. Our losses on the north side, in all the artillery firing and skirmishing of yesterday, amounted to almost nothing. We have heard
