Nota guerilla is left in the State. The | pursaitot Morgan has bcen spirited, although no battle bas been fought since he left the vi- cinity of Springfield. Morgan has been com- elied in the rapidity of his flight to abandon is wagons, caissons and rome of his prison- | ers. The 56 guerillas who were captured in the neighborhood of Danville were members of Morgan's band, and are now in prison at | Louis ville. We have full confirmation of the announee- ment that our forces are again in possession of Cumberland Gap, that important key to East | Tennessee, ard that the Kentucky Oavalry is still pursuing the rebel Morgan. Another expedition is already in East Ten- nersee, and we have every confidence that with the retreat of Bragg to Chattanooga the entire State will be free from rebel Goraipion.
