lust October 29--7 A. M. Jenkins attacked the enemy last night at Brown's ferry, and drove them back, but was finally compelled to retire himself beforhe column which had arrived in the afternoon from Bridgeport did not proceed to Brown's ferry, where the new pontoon bridge is laid, but stopped two miles short of itrain, and finally got in rear of the left wing. In the meantime the forces at Brown's ferry were put in motion, and were pressing down to the relief of their flyinnfusion. The order to withdraw was not given any too soon, for the forces from Brown's ferry were within three hundred yards of the only bridge over Lookout creek bhe road to-day along which the enemy's trains and artillery were moving towards Brown's ferry, and compelled their infantry forces to change their positions more tha 26th, when the enemy effected a landing and threw a bridge across the river at Brown's ferry. There was but one brigade of infantry (Law's) on picket at the time,

up to this time received any positive confirmation; but the desperate condition of want and privation to which the citizens have been reduced might warrant the truth of some disturbance at almost any moment. There are some lively movements going on in the vicinity of Chattanooga. The enemy have been driven from the ridge of mountains on the south side of the Tennessee river by a force of the 14th Ohio, under Col. Stanley, who crossed in pontoon boats which he floated down the stream to Brown's ferry. The enemy was thus flanked, and their withdrawal from Lookout Mountain rendered almost indispensable. The communication between Chattanooga and Bridgeport will now be opened immediately. The batteries of Gen. Gillmore on Morris Island — Gregg and Wagner — together with two monitors, opened fire on Forts Sumter and Johns on Monday, at 11 o'clock in the morning, and continued until dusk. The batteries threw in that time one hundred shots, and the monitors one hundred and sixty

er, and privations, without murmuring or straggling, and always welcomed cheerfully the word "onward." [Second Dispatch.] Charleston, Nov. 3. --The President visited the gunboats to-day, and was received on board the flag ship Charleston by Capt. Tucker and officers. From thence the President and party went to Sullivan's Island, and was received by Gen. Ripley, commanding district, and Gen. Clingman. He visited all the batteries, and Fort Moultrie, where he was received by Col. Wm. Butler. The officers and men were at their various posts. The President reviewed Clingman's brigade, and was enthusiastically cheered by the troops. He then visited Mt. Pleasant and inspected the works there, and reviewed the brigade commanded by Col. Keitt. The President was accompanied by his Aids, Cols. Johnson and Lee, and Gens. Beauregard Gilmer, Ripley, Wise, Soule, and Capts. Elliott and Chisholm.

to Mayor Macbeth, who cordially received and welcomed him to the city. The President returned his acknowledgments, and, being introduced, addressed the people. He said his feelings had drawn him here in this hour of trial, and he desired also to confer with our commanding General, and by personal observation to acquire some of that knowledge which would enable him more fully to understand our wants and the reports submitted to him. He alluded to South Carolina's great statesman, Calhoun, whose departed spirit was now watching over her with all a guardian angel's care, and said it was from South Carolina's great men he first imbibed the principles and doctrines of State sovereignty.--He paid a high compliment to the heroic garrison defending Fort Sumter. The eyes of the world were upon them, and he trusted that the day would never come when the Yankee flag would float over the fortress they defended. In proportion to the hate of the Yankees towards this "nest of the rebel

ater exactness. It is vanity which makes the conquerors that rise at intervals to curse and oppress mankind. It is vanity that impels false teachers to pervert the Gospel, and teach their flocks the most direct road to perdition. It was vanity that taught the Pharisee to despise his neighbor, and to thank God, even at the altar, that he was not even as "this publican." Some Roman or Grecian writer said Cæsar had ambition without vanity or pride, Cicero vanity without pride or ambition, and Cato pride without vanity or ambition. The distribution of the three passions in this wise among the three most eminent men of their day was neither just nor historical. They all possessed vanity in a large degree, as any man acquainted with the incidents of their lives must see at a glance. It is indeed the common inheritance of all mankind. No human being above the degree of an idiot was ever entirely without it. Accordingly, as it is properly directed or the reverse, it leads to meritorious

the Mobile Tribune: Headquarters Manigault's brigade, Missionary Ridge, Oct. 12, 1863. I presume you know Father Challon, a Catholic Priest of Mobile. Well, he has a brother, an old man of perhaps sixty years, who is a member of Capt. Hud also seeing how cheerfully he bore the fatigues and dangers of camp and battle, offered him a staff appointment; but Mr. Challon refused it, preferring to fight as a private in the ranks until he could find some of the Mobile or Alabama troops. Tnt. But for the incident: It was on the ever memorable day of the 20th of September (battle of Chickamauga) that Mr. Challon took his place in the front ranks to attack the enemy in a strong position on a hill. Gallantly did all act on this otillery, &c.; but the enfilade fire from the right and left was so very heavy that we were obliged to fall back.--Here Mr. Challon fell with his thigh broken. Lt. Bigley, passing by and seeing his condition, tendered him assistance, but the old man

The President visits the lines on James Island to-morrow.
