We know that Sherman, Who commands the Federal auxiliary Army of the Tennessee, has reached Huntsville, on his way to join the Army of the Cumberland, at Chattanooga. He undertook to repair the Memphis and Charleston Railroad as he advanced; but the destruction of the track by Lee's and Roddy's cavalry, who fell back before him, was so complete that he finally abandoned the work, crossed the Tennessee river at Florence, and marched across the country to Huntsville, where he had arrived at our last advices. By adopting this plan he will be able to reach Bridgeport sooner than was anticipated at the time I last referred to his movements.

Gen. Bragg has already taken steps to completely checkmate the Federals in East Tennessee. This tcted to see that they are obeyed. In the meantime, every facility should be extended to farmers and others who may desire to engage in the business of raising horses and mules. An impressment of horses for this army was recently ordered in Georgia. The horses were much needed at the time, but could not the demand have been supplied from other sources, and that, too, without increasing the number of horses to be fed? The custom prevails in this army of allowing all general officers above

Gen. Bragg has already taken steps to completely checkmate the Federals in East Tennessee. This they know by this time quite as well as we do. Reference was made in my last letter to the condition of the horses in this army, and to the accessibly of exercising care and economy in the use of them, especially in view of the large numbers that have been destroyed during the war and of the present limited supply. This necessity grows stronger every day, being in proportion to the loss of animal in the service, the further contraction of our available territory, and the rap

From Chattanooga. [from our own Correspondent.] Army of Tennessee, Missionary Ridge, Nov. 11th, 1863. The good weather continues, and the roads have improved very much. The nights are cold and frosty, and the days bright and sunny, with just enough of sharpness in the atmosphere to render exercise pleasant and to make one feel as if he would enjoy a march of fifteen or twenty miles over the frozen roads.

By adopting thisircumstances, is wholly out of place at a time like this. Instead, therefore, of ordering the late impressment of horses, it would have been wiser to have dismounted these gentry. Such escorts are unknown in the army of Northern Virginia. Gen'l Lee alone in the army has an escort — a small one--which never goes with him except in battle, when the men are used as couriers; all other General officers are restricted to the legal number of orderly, or couriers as we call them.
