as thought that the Confederates were receiving reinforcements from Dalton. There was a considerate fight at Clinton Miss., on the 4th. The Federal troops charged a rebel battery and just 15 killed and 30 wounded. The enemy were driven off, and the troops continued their advance. Another dispatch from Chattanooga says that Gen. Thomas army is now in motion for Tunnel Hill and Dalton. All these reports indicate a grand combination of movements, having in view the occasion of Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia. The Chicago Times says Grant is advancing on Montgomery, Ala. The escape of Col. Straight--his arrival with other prisoner, at Fortress Monroe.

he preparation made by the enemy that his expedition was to be rapid, we may look daily, nay hourly, for news of the attack upon Mobile, which was to be a combined one--a fleet of transports and iron-clads having been sent by the enemy to Pascagoula bay on the Gulf, some thirty miles south of Mobile, from which it is supposed co-operation with Sherman by both land and water was designed. What our strength for defence is we have no means of knowing, but are led to believe that the enemy will find a more obstinate resistance than he has any idea of. Should he be disappointed, and his expedition fail, he is almost certainly to find himself in a critical situation. The rains of the Southern spring must set in immediately. They will make Southern Alabama impassable to an army. Our men will have out off railroad communication, and the only escape for Sherman may be by the Pascagoula, if he can get there. Mobile is assuredly not taken yet, nor is it, we hope, destined now to fail.

The address of Congress to the people of the Confederate States. In the House of Representatives on Wednesday last Mr. Corry, of Alabama, made a report from the joint committee of the two Houses appointed under a resolution to prepare an address to the people of the Confederate States. The address is quite lengthy, and opens with a review of what has been accomplished under circumstances the most adverse, and invites attention to the prospects ahead, and the duty of every citizen in this crisis.--Throughout its tone is hopeful and encouraging and its diffusion among the people must evert some influence to dispel despondency where it exists. The long series of oppressive and tyrannical acts which led to a separation of the South from the North are forcibly and truthfully set forth, and the aims and objects of the new Government clearly and intelligibly defined. In alluding to the measures which were enacted and the steps taken in the formation of the Confederacy, the com
