Hooker, and that the enemy Ban Rane Sere bo ote eel Savane Eorutanrnnt MEOH tain, it is of far more importance the pub- lic are generally aware of. The last accounts by mail from Chattanooga were anything bat favorable, und mere was every prospect on the 20th instant that the first order Gen. Grant would give would be to retreat upon Steven- son. It is true the Federal army at Chatta- nooga occupied an impregnable Position; but the difficulty was that the supplies had to be brought to it over mountain roads eighty miles long. During dry weather this was barely feasible, but ‘he rains which have swollen the Cumberland and Tennesse rivers, rendered these roads impassable. Our army was short of provisions when General Grant arriyed at Chattanooga last Tuesday week; but if the re- Port is true that Hooker has opened the road to Bridgeport.and compelled the evacuation ot Lookout Mountain, allis well and our army is safe. There is every propability that a great baitle will soon be fought at or near Chatta- nooga. The necessities of the two armies will bring them into collision sooner or later. Let us hope that the good fortune which has al- ways attended Gen. Grant will not tail him now, when the nation has so much need of it. XN. ¥.
