President Davis Reviewing the Army of Tennessee.

Atlanta, Oct. 12.
--The President reviewed the army and works before Chattanooga on Saturday. He had an excellent opportunity to scan those of the enemy also, and availed himself of it largely. His reception by the troops was enthusiastic. He rode along the entire line within reach of the enemy's shells. Not a gun was opened on him. The Yankees lined their works at every available point of view, and doubtless were aware of the presence of the President, as the pickets hold frequent conversations. It is not known whether the President made any changes. The army is in fine condition, and most anxious to commence active operations.

Weather cool and bracing.
