The rebels were commanded by Gen. Joe Johnston. The latest information from the field, at quarter past 11 A. M., it was reported that the whole rebel army had evacuated Murfreesboro', taking with them all their artillery, stores, etc, falling back towards Shelbyville. Report says the rebels are destroying our baggage trains on the Murfreesboro' Turnpike. Additional line of casualties received, state that the following officers were killed Colonels Stem, McCall, Almonds, Roberts, Walker, Harrington, and Johnston. The Yankee cavalry raid in East Tennessee, The New York Tribune devotes a column to a great cavalry raid by Major Russell, with 3,000 Kentucky cavalry, into East Tennessee. The Tribune says the Union cavalry passed between Cumberland and Pound Gaps, reaching the town of Bluntsville on the 29th, destroyed the railroad and the telegraph lines for miles.

est. On Monday, the 29th, General Rosecrans ordered the entire army to push forward--General Thomas's corps on the right, General McCookic in the centre on the Solumsville, turnpike, and General Crittenden on the Murfreesboro' road. The advance commenced just before daylight, and the troops manifested excellent spirits. Gen. Jeff C, Davis's division moved upon Murfreesboro' in advance on the right, by way of the Bulty Jack road, several miles north of Trinue, where McCook was engaging Hardee. General Negley's and Rosecran's divisions of Thomas's corps occupied the centre, while General Crittenden moved down upon the left. --Generals Wood's and Van.

It seemed marvelouide of Stone's river menacing our army. Gen. Rosecrans ordered him to form in line of battle two divisions in front, one in reserve and cover his flanks, and Generals Negley and Rosecran to close up. Gen. McCook also reported his corps to be at Wilkinson's creek, seven miles from Murfreesboro', and the enemy to be in line of
' battle. The New York Herald has an account of the movements of the Federal army preliminary to the battle of Murfreesboro'. It is very interesting: The movement of the Union forces commerced on Christmas day, and the day following the whole army was in motion. The demonstration against Murfreesboro' was made by Gen. Rosecrans for the purpose of possessing sufficient country to feed his army while his communications in the rear were interrupted. It was ascertained that Morgan and Forrest were engaged in raids north and west, and that in consequence of their absents the rebels were badly off for cavalry. It was ascertained, also, that Murfreesboro' was not fortified, and the moment being most favorable for an advance Gan. Rosecrans determined to take the field in person.--The army was divided into three corps, under Gen's Crittenden, McCook, and Thomas. During the whole of Friday there was considerable shits with the enemy, bad the forward movement was not seriously oppos

ept up with Gen. Thomas's forces on the Holinsville road, and there the rebels also retired before the Union troops. On Saturday morning skirmishing became more serious, and the enemy resisted with more than their usual energy. Gen. McCook had a sharp brush with the rebels, one of his regiments — the 101st Ohio--capturing a gun and caisson from a Georgia battery. The loss was trifling, and the troops behaved splendidly. The captured gun was taken from Grant at Shiloh, and belonged to Darden's rebel battery. Gen, Crittenden lost two killed and twenty seven wounded in his skirmishes. He succeeded, however, in killer and wounding a proportionate number of rebels, and capturing thirty-six Alabama cavalry, and the bridges on Stewart's creek. During the day Gens. Negloy's and Rosecrans's divisions moved to the centre, leaving McCook on the right. On reaching Lytle's creek the enemy was found strongly posted in force, and there the Union troops rested for the night. Gen. Rosecran
