Capture and parole of Confederates--suffering at Nashville. Chattanooga, Sept. 27. --A party of Yankee cavalry captured and paroled four hundred of our sick, on the 20th inst., at Glasgow, Ky. They had been left in the hospital from Bragg's army. The people of Nashville — citizens and soldiers — are near starvation. No stores or provisions can reach them from the North. The place is completely invested by our cavalry. The Yankees are still fortifyin
ly forced upon hi . After his movement in force to Munfordsville, and the reduction of that point, Bragg had no road to get South without fighting; for while he was engaged at Munfordsville Buell moved up to Cave City, and made a movement on the Glasgow road. There no longer remained an egress for him. What was more natural, then, than to avoid him, and push forward to some point by which he could reach Central Kentucky, and find the only available outlet from the State east of Glasgow? OGlasgow? On a careful examination of the map it will be found that it is only by getting north of Muldraugh's Hills, and taking the turnpike road to Danville, Stanford, and London, that Bragg's large force can get out of the State at Cumberland Gap. It is surmised that Bragg is trying to avail himself of this outlet, and he proposes making an effort to destroy this army in the meantime. Should he approach this city by the Bardstown road, and fail in his attempt to destroy us before Buell comes up, he c
Reception of the rebel. Commissioner Mason in Glasgow --Unable to effect any of his proposed mention with Parliament or with the Government direct, Mr. Mason, the Southern Commissioner, was started on a tour through the Kingdom, with the evident hope of making capital on which to trade at the next session, if not before, His first appearance in his new character has been at Glasgow, where, as a private letter Informs me, he was, on Tuesday last, the guest of a distinguished citizen. and met a company invited especially to do him honor. The Lord Provost and one of the members of Parliament, stood aloof, from motives of policy, but the latter invited movement, are the very ones who headed the deputation to Mrs, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and also recognized Fred Douglas, when those patronages respectively visited Glasgow.

Another steamer in. Wilmington, N. C., March 16th. --The British steamer Britannia, forty days from Glasgow, and five days from Nassan, arrived at a Confederate port yesterday with a valuable cargo.
Arrest of suspicious characters. --A man and woman, both in female apparel, were arrested at the depot in Wilmington, N. C. on Tuesday, as suspicious characters. It shown one kind of the proceedings of blockade runners after they reach Charleston. It seems the blockaders had been to Richmond, and had every opportunity for gathering information. The Journal says: The person taken up as a male in female clothing gave his name as Robert Bishop, of Glasgow. Said he came out in the Garafle some six months ago to Wilmington. He had been to Richmond with some one who was to engage him as a substitute, but did not. He had recently gone to Charleston, but wished to return from there to Wilmington and Richmond. The alleged reason for assuming female apparel was that, being unknown, he could not get a passport, but as a woman could go without one. He guns his age as 16 or 17, and we should not think he was more. His accent is broad Scotch, and, indeed, his account about comin
e subject, which may in a few days be removed, when it will be shown that the Government has either accepted or rejected a plan proposed to try to bring the war to a speedy and bloodless conclusion, without dishonor to the North or humiliation to the South." A dispatch dated Louisville, October 7th, says: The guerillas at Woodburn, Warren county, recently committed many depredations, burning a number of houses and robbing citizens, &c. Reports are current here that a raid into Glasgow, Ky., was made at daybreak this morning. Eighty five guerillas, it is said, surprised our forces there, amounting to upwards of three hundred, and captured nearly all of them. The officer commanding them is said to have killed three rebels with a revolving rifle, and on approaching our stockade found it occupied by rebels, but six of our men being in it when they were overpowered by the enemy. Miscellaneous. George Sumner, brother of Senator Sumner, of Massachusetts, died in Boston
the dodging proper under the circumstances. Three bullets passed through the car. Several others struck into the wood work, and glanced off without penetrating to the interior. Fortunately, nobody was hurt, and as I was the only one who saw the guerillas there was nobody except myself scared. These daring movements on the part of the rebels show that operations with a view to interrupt the line of communication between Louisville and Rosecrans are about to be renewed. Refugees from Glasgow informed us that the rebels stated that Bragg had passed around tire left of Rosecrans, and had succeeded in flanking him. This intelligence is further shown to be truthful from information from other sources. If this be so, we shall soon have a repetition of the Bragg and Buell campaign, whose character is still fresh in the mind of every person in the North. One year ago last February, I visited Nashville, while the bridge which the retreating rebels had fired was still smoking. I
e we are now at the end of two years and a half, having made slow but regular progress in this movement, until it has taken shape distinctly before, us, so that we can foresee the ultimate issue. Mr. Adams concluded by enlogizing the honesty and fidelity of Mr. Lincoln. Numerous other "patriotic" loasts were then drunk and responded to. Movements of Confederate agents. Mr. Spence, of Liverpool, the writer on occasion in the London Times, has been addressing large meetings in Glasgow in favor of Southern independence. He urged that England should take the lead in inviting the European powers to intervene in the American war. The Southern Independence Association of Manchester have invited a New York adventurer, Cornell Jewett, to deliver an address before them during December. Jewett accepted, conditional on his not being confined to the subject of the Southern right to independence, nor compromised as a Southern supporter. The European Congress. The repl
