they would reply that the Lord would defend them, and that it was no greater peril than that to which their gallant defenders were all exposed. We failed to mention, in the proper connection, that Col. Wharton--the brave Confederate in arms of Col. Forrest--was wounded. As he was able, however, to superintend the guard which brought the Yankee prisoners through the mountains, it is hoped he will soon recover. In the jail at Murfreesboro' were several of the staring band of Colonel Jack Morgan, who had been taken prisoners some time ago, when that bold ranger met with his reverse at Lebanon. Our soldiers released them from prison early in the action, and they fought like Spartans till the affair was ended. None enjoyed the victory with a better relish than did these liberated heroes. Among the prisoners we saw was Brig. Gen. T. A. Crittenden, of Indiana. He was a sour, beefy, crest-fallen looking fellow, with no marks of manliness and but few of intelligence about h

lost all hope of a restoration of the Union; thinks that it is gone forever, and that he is now willing to admit that he has been deceived, and that he will behave himself and give his influence to the South. We know this man we speak of. He was elected a Lieutenant in the army after he got there. Others should take warning.--Greenville (Tenn.) Banner. A smart woman. The Chattanooga Rebel says that Col. Boone, of Kentucky, was in command of the Federal forces at Gallatin when Col. Jack Morgan made his morning call last week, and had not shaken off the doorway god at the time of the demand for the surrender of his forces. Mrs. Boone, however, was more wide awake, and aroused the sleeping Colonel by exclaiming, "I surrender, and no does the Colonel." Of course, after that the Colonel had no more to say, but quietly caved in. General Pettigrew. The Raleigh (N. C.) Standard learns, from a near relative of Gen. Pettigrew residing in that city, that two of his wounds ha

rs in the West--accounts from the North. Mobile, Aug. 25. --A special dispatch to the Advertiser and Register, dated Tupelo, yesterday, says: Louisville papers of the 18th and Cincinnati papers of the 19th have been received. They furnish the following summary of news. Several new points in Kentucky have been occupied by rebel guerrillas Richmond 23 miles from Lexington is now occupied by three thousand rebels. Eighty Confederates, supposed to be on their way to join Morgan, a ere captured at Mammoth Cave. Bodies of cavalry, supposed to be the advance of a large force, have appeared at London and Somerset Bull Nelson was at Nashville on the 18th. Trains are running through from Nashville on the Chattanooga road. A large body of rebels, collected in Jackson Mo., threaten, an attack on Kansas City. The Kansas militia has been ordered out en masse. At the ovation given to Col. Corcoran at Washington. Col. Wilcox declared that the rebellion was s

the most striking and successful of all his expeditions were the Pamunkey raid through McClellan's lines, in which but one man, the gallant and lamented Captain Latane, was lost, and the recent descent upon Catiett's Station, where he captured such a vast quantity of stores and gathered up the official correspondence and full dress form coat of the redoubtable John Pupe, Major General U S A. As a cavalry officer Gen. Stuart combines with his regular West Point training much of the lan of Jack Morgan and Turner Ashby. Ready for any enterprise, his military motto seems to be that of the French lender, de l'audace, encore de l'audace, toujours de l'audace. In the old Army Gen Stuart was always popular. He was universally known under the pleasant nickname of "Beauty Stuart," as reflecting upon his personal appearance; but the irony was not happy, for on horseback, at the head of his column, there are fewer their looking men than our General. His expression is trunk and agreeable,

Averill's raid. It is reported from Lynchburg that who went to attack Saltsville, was certainly met by Morgan and defeated. The other column of Avori's force is also reported to have occupied Christiansburg, Montgomery co., our forces having fallen back from there.

From General Lee's Army. (From Our Own Correspondent) Army of Northern Virginia,near Petersburg, Va., September 10, 1864. Atlanta has fallen; Forts Powell, Morgan and Gaines have been surrendered into the hands of the enemy, and Jack Morgan is dead. Truly, misfortunes never come alone. But super-add to these reverses the rejoicing which rescind throughout the entire North, and bear in mind that the enemy announce large accretions to their military numbers, and you have the military situation. The month of September will likely witness no grand military effort, either on the Virginia or Georgia military chess-board. Grant and Sherman are, meanwhile, not idle. Their camps are busy in preparation; and, backed by the authorities at Washington, they are making ready to deal us hard knocks by the "early" frost Fous est abhorte deceri is a motto worthy to be remembered and acted upon. If the enemy are engaged in gigantic preparations for our overthrow, it behooves as to be
