Nasnvi_ig, Oct. 5—An unuenal degree of exciietbent prevails here to-day, bh couse. quence of the rebel Gen. Forrest, witha torce of about 4,000 mounted men, hay raid on our line of railroad b tween this place and Hridgeport or nooga. Just at this particular time no trains are | leaving for the direction of tue tront. Yet this circumsiance need give vo particular cause tor alarm. The enemy can do but comp:tt- Atively little to injure our line of communica. tien. Forrest may succred in interrupting our communication tor a few hours; but we auye not only the force to drive him back but to de- feat an immensely henvy tore. There is no need of fear for Gen. Rosecrans’ suceess in belding hie position at Chattanooga. He is too sung at that point for the enemy ww attack him with even a show of succes: To-dey ekirmiehing has been going on in the neighborhood of Murtreesboro. ‘The enemy made a attempt to destroy a bridge of consid- erable importance to us in w railroad point of view. In the skirmish very few were wound. ed, and none were kiled tha: 1 can hear of. Seme persons are inclined to think that an engag nt is going on at Chattunvora, be. cause the enemy is thus operating in the rear of Gen. Rosecrans. Buti do not coinc them.

If he attempte a flank movement on that point he Will mecta force that has been long and well tried in the field, and Gen.

We were looking for it Cavalry move- Mens do not surprise, as itis only when h sayy bodies of infanty move on oor line of commu. nication cr flanks that we prepare for serious engagements, In conclusion, let me assure the loyal people that fears tor Gen.

One hundred of rd’s dismounted cavalry, who were on picket duty at that point, kept the chemy at hay, and finally repulsed them with severe loss, The Rebels Throwing Up Intrenchments. CuLveresx Covert Hoves, Oct. 2—Down at the fords on the Rapidan the army of General Tee is busy in throwing up. more intrench- ments, thereby adding to the strength of an al- | ready very strong position. As naiure, in con- structing this region, placed the hiils on the southern bank of the river and the plains on the northern, it is easy to perceive that the ad- vantage of ground is With the Rebels.

They have at Somerville Ford two Hers of rifle-pits in straight and cremellaire lines, und earthworks behind and above these, to cover their heavy guns, the nature of the ground giving them the power tosweep the opposite plain with a heavy enfilading fire.

About 1,700 more arrived from the same di- rection on Wedseeday night, and 2,200 of the seme will follow this morning. The Libby hus been filled to overflowing, and additional prisons had to be opened. On Tuesdiy night 456 were sent to Bele Isle, and yesterday morning 517 more were sent to the Same place; 600 were quartered in the negro quarters opposite the Castle, and 305 were in- carcerated in Grant’s warehouse, corner Nine- teenth and Franklin streets.

[From the Richmond Dispatch, Oct. 2.] A writer in the Staunton Spectator, dating at Lewisburg, Greenbrier county, Va., Sept. 15th, writes to that paper a description of aremark- able atmospheric phemomenon witnessed iu that town. It was seen by our pickets a few miles from the town. Thesamescene has been described in several respectable papers, the ed- itors ot which all vouch for the reliability of their informants. The writer esys: A remarkable phenomenon was witnessed a few miles west of this place, at the house of Mre. Pearcy, on the first day of this month, at about 3 o'clock p. m., by Mv. Moses Dwyer, her neighbor, who happened to be seated in her porch at the time, as well as by others ator hear the houee. The weather was quite hot and dry, not a cloud be seen, no wind sven ruffied the foliage on thesarrounding trees. All things being pro- itious, the grand panorama began to move. ust over and through the tops of the trees on the adjacent hills, om the south, immense num- bers of rolls resembling cotton or smoke, appa- rently of the size and shape of doors, seeme: be passing rapidly through the air, yet in beau- titul order and regularity. The rolls seemed to be tinged on the edge with light green, co as to resemble a border or deep fringe. There were apparently thousands of them, and were, perbaps, an hour in getting by. After these had passed over and out of sight the scene was changed from the air above to the earth beneath, and became more intensely interesting to the spectators who were witness- ing the panorama from different stand-points. In the deep valley beneath, thousands upon thousands of (apparently) human beings (men) came in view, traveling in the same direction as the rolls, marching in good order, some thirty or forty in depth, moving rapidly, “double quick,” and commenced ascending the sides of the almost insurmountable hills opposite, and had the stoop peculiar to men when they as- cend a steep mountain. There seemed to be great variety in the size of the men; some were very large, whilst others were quite small. Their arinx, legs and heads could be distinctly seen In motion. They seemed to observed strict nulitary discipline, and there were no strag- lers. F There was uniformity of dress, loose white blouses or shirts, with white pants, wore hats, and were without guns, swords or anything that mdicated men of war.’”? On they came throngh the valley and over the steep hill, crossing the road, and finally passing out of | sight, in a direction due north from those who were looking on. P me The gentleman who witnessed this is a man with whom you were once acquuinted, Mr. Editor, and as truthful a man 4s we have in this county, aud &s little liable to be carried away by “tanciful speculations” as any man living. Four others (respectable Indies) and n servant girl witnessed this strange phenome. mn. es S.—On the 14th inst. thesame scene, almost identical, Was seen by eight or ten of our pick- ets at Bunger’s Mill, and by many of tue citi- zens in that neighborhood; this is about four miles east of Pearcy’s. It was about one hour passing.

THE SIEGE OF CHARLESTON. The Army Actively at Weork—The Nary Pi ve—The Firing frem the Rebel Batters [From the New York Tripane.} MorzI6 laLauD, S, U, Sept. 20—The army ia active; the fleet is ‘passive. Such is @ concise statement of affairs in this department since the lastedvices sent you. As td what the army is doing, I am enjoined by General Orders No. 66" not to explain. Of course we know that defensive and offensive operations against ours selves are, being carried.on by the rebels; and we have heard and read that Longstreet’s diyi- sion of 20,000 men have reached Charleston; but of the truth of this rumor we have no means of satisfying ourselves, The gradual enchroachment of the Atlantic upon this coast has tately been instanced re- markably by successive high tides. Although the tents fronting the beach haye been several. times moved back some feet, ths retrogression of the camp continues, and the sea claims daily some portion of the sandy bluff where we bow reside. Where. this bluff is very low, the soldiers haye thrown up small mitrench- ments agninst the ocean; but every tide ad- monishes them of the uncertainty of their tenure, Ola shipmasters hereabout tell of dry a ‘or sands) as having existed forty years ago ie Place where now is the j-channel of Charleston harbor. No chart of thie coast can long remain perfectly accurate, since the soil that the sea thus takes from some places is de- posited in otbers, making bars, shosis and breakers. But as the army is not intended permanently to occupy Morris Island, the sea, encroachments dc not seriously annoy us; nor are we distressed by anticipations oftime here- atter when Old Ocean shall have backed out or inswamped the very site of Rebellion’s hot- bed, so that future travelers shall be in doubt as to where precisely this small, traculent Troy once stood. e@ are on the gui eive nightly for attacks upon Morris and Folly Islands. The swift reprisals that might follow these are by many oflicers supposed to make the rebels cautions in venturing on them. Already the battery at Secessionville has been taught a lesson of for- bearance toward our camp; since for every shell it threw wildly toward our position or works another was neatly plumped into its midst by the gunboat Commodore Mc Donongh, moored in an inlet that our lines fully inclose. Surr. 30.—The rebels began on the 28th inst. to fortify Long Island, contiguous toSullivan’s Island, about northeast from Uharleston. By this means they hope to command the “North Chunnel.” Lyery movement of the rebels on. any of the islands contiguous to Morris Island and Charlestoa harbor is observed and noted They haye thrown up no end of “dummy batteries,” on whic: poteven “Quaker guns” are mounted. 7The father of Col. Shaw, of the Massa- chusetts 51th (colo.ed) Regiment, haying beer: informed that it was intended to search for his son's body, he wrote to Gen.
