The flag was met by Col. Jos. C. McKibben, Capt. D. G. Swain, Lieut. M. J. Kelly, and Surgeon Perrin, Medical Inspector, all of Rosecrans's staff. The preliminary arrangements were made conditionally on our part. The Yankee officers were The Atlanta Appeal, in an article on the probability of Burnside reaching Rosecrans, says: That he had not effected a junction with Rosecrans up to Sunday Rosecrans up to Sunday evening, appears to be the general belief.

We have met a gentleman who left the river, some distance above Harrison's landing, on Friday, who informs as that a small force of his command had made their appearance in that vicinity, but nothing was heard of any considerable body. It he attempts to reach Chattanooga on the south side of the river, he will certainly be compelled to run a dangerous gauntlet, of which he must be aware, consequently he may be looked for, if at all, from the north side. Our information also leads us to believe his strength has been greatly exaggerated.--He certainly cannot

All the prisoners — some of them field officers — with whom our informant had conversed admitted that they had been badly defeated, but said that they would whip us the next time. They admit that in the attack by Longstreet's and Hill's corps on Rosecrans's centre, composed of their heaviest crack corps — Crittenden's and Thomas's — these two corps lost fully one half of their men. On Friday night last, Wheeler's and Forrest's cavalry left under orders, crossing the river, provided with ten days rations. Our informant says that among the pieces of ordnance captured we have several line Napoleon and 20 pounder Parrott guns. He says we can easily shell any part of the enemy's lines.

K., 26th Tennessee, who deserted at Tullahoma on the 1st of July last, and afterwards enlisted in the enemy's ranks, and was captured at the late battle, lighting against us, was executed this morning for desertion.

Two South Carolina regiments, of Hood's division, (which occupies the extreme left,) advanced to meet them, and were fired upon by a body of sharpshooters, masked at the distance of ten steps, losing five or six men killed. Skirmishing of this kind is frequent, and the fire of sharpshooters, on either side, incessant. On Friday four scouts of Ector's Texas brigade, Hood's division, fired on a flat boat filled with Yankees. Fifteen of them jumped into the river and were drowned, twenty two and one negro surrendered and were brought off, and three escaped by swimming to the north bank. They complained of short rations, and said they were boating provisions from across the river. On Saturday the same scouts captured five Yankees eight miles below Chattanooga, engaged i

We had thrown shell to the railroad depots, made a body of Yankees scamper away from the fan yard between the city and Lookout Mountain, and scattered another body at the enemy's wagon yard across the river. This was done with 10 pounder Parrott guns on Lookout. One of the 20 pounders had burst. The enemy have a pontoon bridge across the river immediately opposite Chattanooga, and, prisoners say

They have also a fortification on the north side of the river, from which they could enfilade our line on the left in case of its advance into the valley or plain below. --Some of our sharpshooters had their rifle pits in 300 yards of the enemy. Longstreet's corps now occupy the position on the left, near the base of Lookout Mountain, Hill's next, Buckner's next, and Polk's the extreme right.
