From Tennessee. Atlanta, Nov. 13. --Advices from the front represent that firing continues briskly between our batteries and those of the enemy. A special to the Intelligencer says that there was heavy shelling between the batteries at Lookout and Moccasin yesterday for one hour. Gen. Grant has allowed Mrs. Helm, whose husband was killed at Chickamauga, to cross into Kentucky under flag of truce. The enemy has made a movement from his right to the left, either with a view to a diversion in order to attack Lookout, or to send troops to the support of Burnside.

Arrived in Richmond. --Mrs. Todd, of Ky., the mother of Mrs. Lincoln, arrived in this city on the steamer Schultz, Thursday night, having come to City Point on a flag of truce boat. She goes South to visit her daughter Mrs. Helm, widow of Surgeon-General Helm, who fell at Chickamauga. Mrs. Todd is about to take up her residence in the South, all her daughters being here, except the wife of Lincoln, who is in Washington, and Mrs. Kellogg, who is at present in Paris.

The Yankees down in Chattanooga are a sorry looking set of fellows, certain. They burrow away in the ground and are as muddy as minks. The pickets are now on mighty friendly terms. They converse freely, joke each other, and sometimes treat. You can ride from one end of our line of sharpshooters to the other without receiving a shot. Papers are not permitted to be exchanged. Flags of truce ply daily. By these, letters are frequently sent, and sometimes travel is also permitted. Mrs. Gen. Helm passed through the other day. A letter to the Atlanta Register dated Missionary Ridge, Nov. 15, says: The signal corps, under the supervision of Captain G. C. Bain, has proven itself to be a valuable organization. Lookout Mountain converses with Missionary Ridge with expedition. Messages are borne on the air for five and six miles with a celerity barely to be believed. The signal flag transmits messages and orders throughout the whole army. Some of the corps having been c
hen I began the attack. My impression is that my corps was engaged more than an hour before a trigger was drawn by any other troops. To the fierceness of the assault by this heroic corps the Yankees ascribe their massing on our right. If I am not greatly mistaken, we had gained the Chattanooga road, turned the Yankee works, and nearly reached the Kelly house, before the left wing came into action. The Yankees concentrated their forces rapidly to regain the key point of their position. Gens. Helm and Deshier were killed, and Gen. Adams was wounded and captured by the overwhelming masses thrown against my single corps. Gen. Adams told me that the Yankees, in conversation with him, ascribed the loss of the battle to their withdrawing too many troops from their right to meet this morning attack of my heroic men on their left. It would seem that the delay in attacking on our left led them to believe that our forces were massed on our right. All the Yankee accounts of the battle agre
