Brilliant Affair at Lexington, Tenn.

Chattanooga, Dec. 23.

--A special dispatch to the Rebel, from Tuscumbia, Dec. 23d, says:

‘ A gentleman arrived here to-day with the corpse of his brother, killed in a fight at Lexington Tennessee, says General Forrest attacked and routed the Federal there on the 18th, capturing a battery, horses and all, and 400 prisoners, 500 carbines, 200 horses, several hundred saddles, and a considerable amount of commissary stores.

The citizens reported the enemy 5,000 strong, mostly new recruits. Our loss very trifling.

A man here says the Yankees had returned from Okolona.
