nder-in-chief during the engagement, is a foreigner by birth, and was appointed by Lincoln to his present position as from the State of Maryland. Schoepff, when he came to this country, was penniless. He hired himself as a porter in one of the New York hotels, from whence he went to Washington, still acting in this capacity. In the Federal Capital he became acquainted with Mr. Holt, then Commissioner of Patents. To this gentleman he is indebted for his first lift in the world. Gen. G. H. Thomas. Is an officer of the regular United States Army. He is a Virginian, and is between 40 and 45 years of age. He was appointed a cadet at West Point in 1836. He was brevetted a captain for gallant and meritorious conduct in Mexico, at Monterey, and afterwards Major for services at Buena Vista. He served as instructor of artillery and cavalry at West Point in 1850. Having passed through the different grades of his profession, he was finally appointed to command the Fourth Division

e said of a hundred days rations and an abundant supply of food, we know very well that there is no truth in the statement. Sherman's supply trains were captured, one after another, and immense quantities of army food destroyed by our cavalry. A considerable amount was run into Atlanta, but it could not have been very great. There may be a quantity of commissary stores at Knoxville, but that is about as accessible to Sherman as to us. Sherman's army is not so great as is generally supposed; they are, however, the flower of the Northern army, and fight well. There is one corps, eight thousand strong, at Atlanta. Thomas has twelve thousand with him. There are five thousand at Cartersville, two thousand at Etowah, and the remainder of the army will count twenty-three thousand. This makes a total of fifty thousand. The cavalry amount to about five thousand. This being the approximate strength of the enemy, our army, if well managed can easily disconcert and baffle them.
the Twenty-fourth North Carolina. Two corps are represented to be at Lafayette, and one went south from Villanova plain. They obstructed Snake Creek pass to delay our trains; but by to-morrow I can move in any direction. W. T. Sherman, Major-General. Deserters from Hood's army report his force at thirty thousand. The strength of his cavalry is not known. There is no additional news from the Tennessee river, except that Roddy's forces moved from Tuscumbia yesterday. G. H. Thomas Major-General. Chattanooga,October 17--10 A. M. The rear of Hood's army left Lafayette, going south, at daylight this morning. J. M. Schofield, Major-General. The country south and southwest of Lafayette is exceedingly difficult for an inferior army vigorously pursued, consisting of narrow valleys parallel to the ranges of Taylor's ridge and Lookout mountain, broken by rough hills, and destitute of food for men or beast until you reach the Coosa river, a distan

t, in the vicinity of Hatcher's run, and thence, during the day, down to Fort Gregg, some two and a half miles from the city. Our picket lines were charged and captured in front of several brigades, and in turn portions of them recaptured by our troops. These demonstrations — for they were nothing else — were kept up all day, the heaviest of them being made between three and four o'clock P. M. The enemy advanced in double line of battle, the length of a brigade front each, and drove in General Thomas's pickets, and pursuing to within some two hundred yards of our lines. A battery of artillery was placed in position on their flank, which opened upon them with grape and canister and one-second fuse shells. A large number of them were killed and wounded, the line of battle quickly broken, and the Yankees retreated in confusion to their works. Our main line of works was at no time of the day in danger.--The whole day's operations were conducted on and about the picket lines. --We lost

One hundred and eighty prisoners, captured during the frequent skirmishes on our right on Saturday, reached the Libby last evening. The usual quiet prevails on the north side of the James. From East Tennessee--the movement against Southwestern Virginia. We have, through private letters and other trustworthy sources, positive intelligence relative to Thomas's movements and force in East Tennessee.--There is little doubt that he is preparing a grand "On-to-Richmond" movement through Southwestern Virginia. His column, which is already in motion, consists of not less than twenty thousand men,--the latest advices state, seventeen thousand infantry and five thousand cavalry,--the greater part of which are at Bull's gap, ten miles east of Morristown and eighteen miles below Greenville. He is advancing leisurely towards Bristol, rebuilding, as he a
