The enemy does not appear anxious to attack, though he apparently intends to dispute further advance. He remains in constantly increasing force directly in front, a few miles distant, reviewing heavy reinforcements of old troops from General Lee's army. Longstreet passed through Augusta on the 10th and 11th inst., by rail to Resaca. Their advance has reached Lafayette. The rebels have been moving through the gap of Pigeon Mountain, and forming line on this side, as if to attack. General Rosecrans has assumed a strong defensive position on Chickamauga creek covering Chattanooga. He evinces no disposition to attack at present. The preparation to do so cannot all be completed for a few days, when a battle must ensue. General Stanley, of the cavalry corps, is very ill and

The public will be informed at an early moment of thrginia in place of Gen. Lee, who has gone to Tennessee; that three divisions of Lee's army have gone to Bragg, and that Longstreet has gone there too.

The dispatches published below are the latest relative to the Movements of Rosecrans. Louisville, Ky., Sept. 18, 1863. --Rumors have been prevalent here for the past three days of disasters to General Rosecrans's army, all of which have been discredited by the military authorities.--They probably arise from the fact that on Sunday last a rebel force, sixteen thousand strong, attacked General Negley's division, five thousand three hundred strong, at Bird's Gap, and drove them back three and and half miles.

s in Kilpatrick's division in the two days were two killed and forty-six wounded. Yesterday and to-day the rebels shelled the wood leading to the camps of our troops on the Rapidan, preventing the wagons and troops from passing for an interval. This afternoon the rebels opened fire from a few guns, without, however, inflicting damage. A squad of thirty men belonging to the 4th New York cavalry were captured by the rebels, and the whole regiment has incurred the displeasure of Gen. Pleasanton, who has issued an order to that effect. The rebels have fortified the heights on the other side of the Rapidan, the position being naturally a strong one. Over thirty of their guns are counted that are in view, the majority, of course, being screened from sight. Another dispatch, dated the 17th, says: The most of the enemy's cavalry has been driven across the Rapidan, but about 2,000 still occupy a position on this side, protected by some powerful batteries, mounting 12
