ssive dispatches to Gen. Halleck concerning this affair; whereof the following is the latest and most erroneous: headquarters army of the Potomac, Bolivar Sept. 15--10 A. M. To H. W. Halleck, General-in-Chief: Information this moment received completely confirms the rout and demoralization of the Rebel army. Gen. Lee imission to infantry officers who asked leave to cut their way out: saying he was ordered to hold the Ferry to the last extremity. Next morning at daybreak, Sept. 15. the Rebel batteries reopened from seven commanding points, directing their fire principally at our batteries on Bolivar Heights. At 7 A. M., Miles stated to Ged it with spirit, and routed it, capturing 250 prisoners and 2 gains. Richardson's division, of Sumner's corps, followed; pressing eagerly on that afternoon; Sept. 15. and, after a march of 10 or 12 miles, descried the Rebels posted in force across Antietam creek, in front of the little village of Sharpsburg.

sted march northward, through Bardstown, to Frankfort, Oct. 1. the State capital, where Smith had preceded him, and where Richard Hawes, Formerly a member of Congress. a weak old man, was inaugurated Oct. 4. Provisional Governor of Kentucky. This ceremony, says Pollard, was scarcely more than a pretentious farce: hardly was it completed when the Yankees threatened Frankfort; and the newly installed Governor had to flee from their approach. Gen. Buell, after leaving Nashville Sept. 15. strongly garrisoned, had marched directly for Louisville, 170 miles; where his army arrived between the 25th and 29th. It had by this time been swelled by reenforcements, mainly raw, to nearly 100,000 men; but it was not, in his judgment, yet in condition to fight Bragg's far inferior numbers. Hence, time was taken to reorganize and supply it; while the Rebel cavalry galloped at will over the plenteous central districts of the State, collecting large quantities of cattle and hogs not onl

Dalton, or some other point on the railroad, to prevent the return of Bragg's army, it will be decided whether your army shall move farther south into Georgia and Alabama. It is reported here by deserters that a part of Bragg's army is reenforcing Lee. It is important that the truth of this should be ascertained as early as possible. H. W. Halleck, Commander-in-Chief. Minty, commanding our cavalry on the left, had been scouting nearly to Dalton, and had had several smart skirmishes Sept. 15. with the enemy's horse near that place, Ringgold, Lett's, and Rockspring church. As he still held the left, after our concentration, being thrown across the Lafayette road, he was here attacked Sept. 17. in force, and compelled to give ground; showing that Bragg was massing heavily on his right, and crossing the Chickamauga below (north of) Gordon's mill. Rosecrans was by this time aware that the matter threatened to be serious. The stubborn attack on Minty evinced a disposition to

Scott was soon extended; July 2. it was next made Sept. 24, 1862. general so far as it might affect persons arrested by military authority as guilty of disloyal practices; and — Congress having at length by express act authorized May 3. such suspension — the President proclaimed Sept. 15 a general suspension of the privilege of habeas corpus--to continue throughout the duration of such Rebellion. But, months ere this, a serious collision between military authority and Peace Democracy had been inaugurated, and had created much excitement, in Ohio. Mr. C. L. Vallandigham, having been defeated in his canvass for re-election by Gen. Robert C. Schenck, at the Ohio State Election in 1862, ceased to be a Member at the close of the XXXVIIth Congress.
