Five hundred dollars Reward. --Ran away from the subscriber on the night of the 8th instant, a likely boy named Jim, about 16 years old. Jim has a full head of black hair, gingerbread color, well grown, and his walk is slow and careless. Said boy had on when he left a gray military cap, light gray jacket and dark pants. Jim was raised by Mrs. Wall, in Stevensburg, Culpeper county, and may be making his way there, or he may have gone with Gen Hood's division, as he has been in the army before and liked it very much. Jim has relations living in Richmond, and may be lurking about the city at this time. G Z miles. Firm of Miles &Bro. se 25--3t*
orces since Sunday, and that he has been able to gather as much physical force as he lost, may be true. Burnside's disposable force may have joined him, and his garrisons left lower down and north of the river may have been hurried to his support. And it will be remembered that the letter of our correspondent, "Kingston," published yesterday, (who writes advisedly,) informs us that five brigades of infantry, one of cavalry, and several batteries of artillery, left Huntsville, Ala, on the 13th inst. If this force had not come up in time to participate in the late battle, they will have had time to make the march ere this. It is the impression of our officers they were engaged before, but the Federal officers captured say not. It may be so. Gen. Braggs' Dispatch to Gen. Beauregard. Chickamauga River,9 miles Northwest of Ringgold,September 22, 1863. Gen. Beauregard--After several ineffectual efforts we succeeded in bringing the enemy to action on the 18th inst., on the Ch

We give a letter from the Intelligencer. written on the 22d inst.: The preliminary fight commenced, it may be said, on Friday, the 18th inst., at Alexander's bridge, eight miles west of Ringgold. Walthall's brigade was principally engaged and suffered most, one regiment losing 73 killed and wounded. Gen. Bushrod Johnson's brigade moved up at the time from Ringgold, crossing the Chiot. It may be so. Gen. Braggs' Dispatch to Gen. Beauregard. Chickamauga River,9 miles Northwest of Ringgold,September 22, 1863. Gen. Beauregard--After several ineffectual efforts we succeeded in bringing the enemy to action on the 18th inst., on the Chickamauga river, between Ringgold and Chattanooga, and after four days fighting have driven him from the State of Georgia, and are now still pursuing him. We have encountered the most obstinate resistance and endurance that the valor
d. Walthall's brigade was principally engaged and suffered most, one regiment losing 73 killed and wounded. Gen. Bushrod Johnson's brigade moved up at the time from Ringgold, crossing the Chickamauga above at Reed's bridge, the enemy falling back before us and marshalling their forces in line of battle. Their advance on Georgia soil had been so successful and easy that they seemed surprised at the idea of being checked, contemplating a triumphant entrance into Atlanta. On Saturday, the 19th, the two contending armies confronted each other in battle array. Our line extended from Reed's bridge to Lee & Gordon's mills, a distance of between seven and ten miles, over a rugged, barren country of hill and dale. Between 8 and 9 o'clock A. M. the battle opened on our right, in the course of an hour the firing because heavy and rapid, the batteries of Forrest's and Walker's divisions, and the reserve, Capt. Lumsden's battery, in command of Major Palmer, Chief of Artillery, keeping up a
med and distinguished gallantry, taking 14 pieces of artillery. Gen. McNair was wounded, and the noble Col. R. W. Harper, commanding a brigade, was killed. Col. Harper was a Marylander but a citizen of Arkansas, and had previously distinguished himself at Oak Hills, Elk Horn, and Murfreesboro'. Gen. Buckner's and Hill's corps also won imperishable renown. Capt. James Stone of Buckner's escort, (who took Gen. Willich prisoner at Murfreesboro'.) also added to his laurels. On Monday, the 21st, Gen. Forrest pursued the enemy, capturing a squadron of Gen. Stanley's Yankee cavalry, and general skirmishing taking place, the enemy retreating on Chattanooga. Gen. Wheeler had also captured a large train of wagons, burning a large portion and securing over 1,000 prisoners. To-night, (Tuesday,) as I close this letter, which I send by private express, a courier just in reports that the enemy are burning their stores at Chattanooga and crossing the river.

The Legislature. --In the Senate on Saturday was reported a bill to provide for employing in the public service or for the public benefit free negroes convicted of misdemeanors. The Committee of Courts of Justice reported adversely upon the petition of certain citizens of Richmond, asking the passage of an act to authorize the City Council of Richmond to make compensation for damages sustained by the riot in April last. Also reported adversely up on reporting a bill granting to debtors the privilege of tendering payment of all debts now due, or that may become due during the war, Confederate Treasury notes. The consideration of the militia bill was then resumed, and the Senate, during the remainder of the day, was engaged upon it. In the House the Senate's amendment to the House bill, for making appropriations to pay the expense incurred by the present session of the Legislature, and certain other expenses of Government, was read by the clerk. The amendment appr

Ran away. --$100 Reward.--Ran away, on Monday, 14th Sept., from Fla Hospital No. 11, in Richmond, Billy Johnson, the property of Mrs. Sarah A Forlaine, Chesterfield, Va. Said man is about 24 years old, light gingerbread color, thick lips, pop eyes, bushy head of hair, (curly,) stout made, about five feet nine inches high; hangs his head down when walking; wears his hat or cap one sided; his weight is about 165 or 170 pounds; can cut hair and shave, and might pass off for a free man very readily. No doubt but he has gone off with some officer or private to the army above Orange C H, or to the South--possibly making his way to the North. He had no papers about his person; or, if any, they were forged. I will give the above reward for his delivery to any jail, so I can get him again. D A Brown. se 28--3teod*

From the North. Baltimore papers of Saturday have been received. They contain only meagre accounts of the battle of Chickamauga, the substance of which we subjoin: Cincinnati, Sept. 23.--Special dispatches from Chattanooga to-day fail to get through. Though the news is far from encouraging, people here have confidence that Rosecrans will maintain himself till reinforcements reach him, and that he will then turn the tables on Johnston. Washington,Sept. 24.--A dispatch from Gen. Rosecrans, dated at his headquarters last night, says: "I cannot be dislodged from my present position." Nashville Sept. 23--Very little news of an official character is received here, we obtaining all our news from officers directly from the front. It is rumored that we have lost four Generals in killed and wounded, and two as prisoners. Cincinnati,Sept.24.--Mr. Shanks, correspondents of the New York Herald has arrived here from the battle-field. He says that the official re
