rmed a junction with Rosecrans, and give him the balance of power to wield against the army under command of Braxton Bra gr. There are but two ways to meet this Yankee movement successfully. The first is for Bragg to strike Rosecrans at once and before Siegel can come to his aid, thereby depriving him of the great advantage he is so desirous of obtaining — Without this be done, and done speedily, there will, in all probability, be a repetition of Shiloh — Siegel arriving to aid Rosecrans as Buell did to aid Grant — and, though an expensive victory be achieved to our arms, it will prove incomplete by the reinforcement of the defeated army, by which it will be able to hold its ground. The other means of meeting this overwhelming assault is by reinforcing Bragg's army from Virginia. If Hooker can spare Siegel, Lee can dispense with Longstreet, and his army may be able to reach Tullahoma in time to participate in the great struggle for the Central Southern States and the connection<

Forty-five transports, conveying troops to Nashville, have, within the past week, passed up the Cumberland river. The force is Gen. Franz Siegel entire corps, numbering 20,000 men, recently transported by rail from Virginia to the Ohio river, and sent thence in transports to Nashville, for the purpose of reinforcing Gen. Rosecrans at Murfreesboro'.--The entire corps has now reached Nashville, and the larger portion of it have been thrown out on the line of the Central Southern Railroad to Franklin, in the direction of this place and, as before stated, midway between the two latter points. Thus it will be seen that by a rapid and secret movement, 20,000 reinforcements have been skillfully placed at the disposal of Rosecrans, so that he may build his large army upon Bragg and crush him out; and, if successful in doing this, cross a large flanking army through the country via Corinth or Columbus, Mississippi, upon the rear of Vicksburg.

ist on the matter being turned over to us. The Cincinnati Commercial in commenting on the claims of the West, remarked that the "West ought to be made the vanguard of the war," and proceeded: We are akin by and geography with Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri and in sentiment to the noble Union patriots, who have a majority of three to one in all those States. An Ohio army would be received with joy in Nashville, and he welcomed in a speech of congratulation by Andrew Johnson. Crittenden and Frank Blair are keeping Kentucky and Missouri all right. The rebellion will be crushed out before the assemblage of Congress — no doubt of it. Not a Yankee paper at that time had the remotest idea of the conflict — not one that rose to the emergencies of the occasion. All were filled with passion, rant, and bombast. From the Chief Executive down to the lowest subaltern, the raging idea of "wiping out the South, " "an easy conquest," and so on, went roaring, like a prairie on fi

If Hooker can spare Siegel, Lee can dispense with Longstreet, and his army may be able to reach Tullahoma in time to participate in the great struggle for the Central Southern States and the connection of the East and West ends of the Confederacy. The aspect at this movement is not very favorable, but we trust to the foresight of Johnston and Bragg to meet the exigencies of the central campaign. In the meantime the greater portion of Vanhorn's cavalry have crossed Duck river, and in a few days the whole body will be over, striking at Siegel from e<

the Alabama brought into action against the steamer Hatteras numbered seven guns. From the character of the contest, and the amount of damage done to the Alabama, I have no reason to believe that any officer failed in his duty. To the men of the Hatteras I cannot give too much praise. Their enthusiasm and bravery were of the highest order. I enclose the report of the Assistant Surgeon by which you will observe that five men were wounded and two killed. I am, very respectfully, R. C. Clarke, Lieutenant Commanding. Affairs in Washington.--Greeley's Plan for peace — the four Plunders of the Administration. The Washington correspondent of the Chicago Times sends that paper an interesting letter, from which we make the following extracts: Prominent among the signs of the times is the recent extraordinary action of Horace Greeley and the New York Tribune Greeley has been in perfect accord with the President ever since the 22d of September.

of their persons and property have all been at his mercy. Whatever he commanded the President to do, that the President has done. The will of Horace Greeley has been made the supremes law of the land. For the President has been pleased to do whatever Horace willed him to do, and the Attorney General has declared. "whatever pleases the President, that is law." Well, Horace now wills that the war shall stop. He has been here to see the President; he and his friend and co-laborer, Wendell Phillips. They have become convinced that the South cannot be conquered. Fearful, therefore that the conservatives will also become so convinced, and the latter, uniting with the conservatives of the South, will devise some measures to restore the Union, they have determined to avert that calamity (as they consider it) at all hazards and by every means.--Their followers here boast that Mr. Lincoln's ideas on the subject are the same as those of Mr. Greeley; that he, too, is convinced of the us

across the Cumberland at Nashville. It is possible, too, that it is intended for the passage of Duck river at this point. If the latter surmise prove correct, it is evidently the enemy's intention to throw this force upon our left flank at Shelbyville, where Gen. Folk is believed to command. It this prove to be the programme, he must now be waiting at Franklin for the arrival of his pontoons. A very few days will develops his plans, and the same length of time will precipitate Van Dorn, Wheeler, and Forrest upon him. As events transpire I will report them. Citizens from the Cumberland report that the enemy are bringing a pontoon bridge from Cincinnati with them. You will have learned be fore this of five Yankee gunboats having ascended the Tennessee, nearly as high up as Florence, and having destroyed the town of Clifton, just below, and capturing about forty of Forrest's men and their horses. These boats, from their number, were evidently out upon an important reconnaissan

They see now that it is a war to prevent the Union from being restored--Mr. Lincoln assured them that he had no desire, no intention, no power to interfere with slavery in the Sotton ports of the Mississippi; and retaining the remaining twenty-five thousand, included in Mr. Lincoln's call for 75,000 men, at Washington, not because there is any need for them there, but becauothing will end in a month.
