It is understood that the movement will be greatly strengthened by the speedy advance of the central column of Lee and Loring along the line of Rosencranz's retreat. You will not be surprised, therefore, if our combined forces winter in the rich valley of the Kanawha, and the eses to move a two-horse load, and even then it is a slow and tedious business. It is almost impossible for a horse to move out of a walk from General Floyd's to Gen. Lee's camp, and before we could take up our march on yesterday, we had to cut a new road nearly four miles long!

Lee, and hailing from Prince George county, advertised in the newspapers on Saturday his intention of delivering a religious lecture or discourse on the Capitol Square on Sunday.

Grant, it was alleged, saw this with great distinctness, and hence had spread his nets in such a way that the army, which is the real capital of the rebellion, should not escape. It need not be said that even Richmond has not suce people of the United States. They are just now in a state of absurd elation over the fall of Atlanta; but the fall of Atlanta, they ought never to forget, did not involve the fate of General Hood's army — an army as large as that with which General Lee now confronts the enemy in Virginia.
