From Gen. Bragg's army — our loss in Artillery.

[from our own correspondent.]
Dalton, Dec. 3.
--All is quiet.

The Federal cavalry reappeared at Ring gold a few moments last night, and passed towards Lafayette.

The report about Colonel Hollenquist (Bragg's Chief of Artillery) deserting is without foundation. There is no purer officer in the army.

Our loss in artillery in the late battle was thirty-eight pieces, lost from the following batteries: Ferguson, 4 guns; Howell's, 2; McCaut's, 2; Dent's, 5; Scott's, 3; Yates's, 3; Faler's 3, Garity's. 1; Oliver's, 1; Anderson's, 1; Slocumb's, 6; Cobb's, 4; Harris's, 2, Massenburg's, 4. Two siege guns were burnt at Chickamauga Station. The number does not equal that taken by us from the enemy at the battle of Chickamauga.

Sallust.
