The attack and success of the left wing at Murfreesboro', under Gen. Hardee, was one of the most signal achievements of the war.
In July, 1863, after the army had fallen back from Tullahoma to Chattanooga, Gen. Hardee was ordered to Mississippi, and was engaged in reassembling the Vicksburg and Port Hudson prisoners until about the first of November, when he was ordered back to the Army of Tennessee. General Longstreet having been sent to Knoxville, Hardee was placed in command of the left wing, resting upon Lookout Mountain, and held this position until the evening of the 23d November, when, the right wing being threatened, he was transferred to that part of the line.

On the first of November next the election for President of the United States will occur.
The contest has already commenced though the candidates have not been formally nominated.
Upon the result hang the most momentous interests.
My profound conviction is, that the South can wholly influence that result; for if we are victorious in the field this summer, no effort of Lincoln can prevent a peace man from taking his seat and putting an end to the war.
The new issues raised by the war have completely metamorphosed Northern polities.
The "Republican" of 1860 is the "Abolitionist" of 1864, and the man who calls himself a "Democrat" may be for "a vigorous prosecution of the war, " or in favor of recognizing t
