mpracticable country, thereby running the risk of ruin to his whole force, or to surrender. But the exceedingly dilatory movements of our army have lost us all the advantage we had, or believed we had, a few weeks ago. They have afforded time to the Yankees to collect troops from the most distant quarters, to restore their communications at their leisure, and to threaten us with a siege, instead of undergoing one themselves. If Gen. Bragg should be driven from his position, we not only lose East Tennessee entirely, but we open the door for the invasion of Georgia, where there is a very large supply of cotton, which formed the main inducement of Rosecrans's invasion of that State. It will thus be seen that the most important interests are involved in the operations around Chattanooga.

ganization exists in Illinois, waiting for the outbreak in Ohio. Other particulars are known to the authorities, but have not yet been made public. From East Tennessee. The papers publish the following two dispatches relative to affairs in East Tennessee: Chattanooga, Oct. 27, (via Nashville, Oct. 28.)--Unreliable iEast Tennessee: Chattanooga, Oct. 27, (via Nashville, Oct. 28.)--Unreliable intelligence has been received on the movement or a portion of Bragg's army, under Longstreet, up the valley of the Tennessee river, with the intention of operating against General Burnside. It is also believed here that a corps of Lee's army, under Ewell, is moving into East Tennessee, by way of Lynchburg, for the same purpose. East Tennessee, by way of Lynchburg, for the same purpose. Knoxville, Oct. 30, (via Louisville, Nov. 1.)--Our forces which occupied London have retreated to the north side of the river, and now occupy the heights commanding London.
