Headquarters of General Reynolds's division camped for the night at foot of the mountain. Brannan's division at Easeley's. September 11.--Baird's division closed up on Negley's at Widow Davis's house, about eight A. M. Soon afterward, Negley, being satisfied from his own observations and from the reports of officers sent out to reconnoitre, and also from loyal citizens, that tille as ordered. My corps was isolated at Alpine, and, had it moved upon Summerville, it would have been exposed to the entire rebel army, which reconnoissances soon convinced me was being concentrated at or near La Fayette, Georgia. On September eleventh, at half-past 9 P. M., I received a communication from General Thomas, reporting his difficulties on the march, and that he could not reach La Fayette until the thirteenth. Believing that no cooperation could take place between General Tho

That night Adams's brigade, of Breckinridge's division, guarded Childress Bridge, on the extreme left of our army, and Ector's brigade was in front of Reid's Bridge on our right. While our army was thus advancing toward Lafayette to check the main body of Rosecrans's army, Crittenden's corps was vainly dreaming of a triumphant march toward Atlanta. The enemy's cavalry had advanced as far as Tunnel Hill, from where they were driven back, on the eleventh of September, by Forrest's and Scott's cavalry, General Bushrod Johnson's forces occupying the ridge back of the railroad tunnel. To show that Rosecrans. had no idea of being attacked by Bragg, on the eighteenth, while he was securing the bridges and fords across the Chickamauga, the enemy's cavalry made a dash on Ringgold, shelling the town, but were driven back by our cavalry with considerable loss. It is stated that at this time, some of our people informed Crittenden that we had received l

She remained until midnight, when she was kedged off, as no assistance could be had from any of the tugs of the expedition. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, H.

The expedition of the Nineteenth army corps, Major-General Franklin commanding, which left New-Orleans on the fourth inst., has returned without accomplishing the object for which it was despatched. All the preliminary arrangements were made in the most expeditious and secret manner, and the promise of success was most flattering up to the very last moment, when a combination of those unfortunate accidents which no human foresight or determination can prevent or overcome, turned vict

Should any newspaper in the State commit treason, I would have its editor arrested and tried by laws, which many of us yet respect. I thank you for your prompt orders telegraphed to Major Pierce concerning the passage of troops through this city. They are now being enforced, and peace can be preserved if they are rigidly obeyed. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, Z. B. Vance. A second letter, dated September eleventh, from Governor Vance to President Davis, is omitted by the Standard for the present. confederate States of America, Executive Department, Richmond, Va., September 15, 1863. Governor Z. B. Vance, Raleigh, N. C.: my dear sir: Your two communications of the eleventh instant have been received.

Also, that the enemy's cavalry was in his front, and that a portion of it had charged his advance, rode over four companies of the First Kentucky infantry, and captured fifty men and two officers, without any one on either side being hurt. At night received from the front several reports, going to show that the enemy was in force this side of Lafayette, and threatening to retake Chattanooga. September 11, at 1 A. M.--The General Commanding feeling uncertain about the position and strength of the enemy in our front, ordered me to proceed to the front at once. Was misled by the guide and did not reach my command until six A. M. ; and two of my orderlies on duty with Captain McCook in search of me, thinking I had taken the wrong road, were captured, he narrowly escaping. Early in the morning, Colonel Harker, with his brigade, was moved back to Rossville, and by night made a reconnoissance
