The following wan received from Olmttiuioogu on the 26tli nt T:15 P. M., being: u dUpulch sent to Gen. llulleck . "Although the liuttlu Itwiw. from early dawn to dmk this i-vctiing, I believe I nm hot premature in announcing ci complete Victory over Jrnjrjr. Lookout Mountain top, nil the rifle-pits. ClmMuitooj-a Vulloy. and Missionary Uidire entire, huve been tarried, and are now held by us. .Signed, Chant." Report from Chnttnnoogu. received nt the War Department, represented that .?, 000 prisoners were captured from the Reb el yesterday, with f2 cannon, 5,000 ntund rjf small anil? and 10 flag. The Rebel forces were entirely routed and arc in mil retreat, towards Dultou. They are burn ing, bridges after them, to returd pursuit, tind at also burning their depots and stores, abandoning or destroying everything that will embarniFS them in their flight. Ninety-six nun-eons recently released rrnm the Lib by Prison, captured at various times and in different departments of the nrmy. nrrived today. They had no op portunity of learning the number of troops In the city. The clothing and provisions which have reached there had been distrib uted, uiTitrding great relief and cheering the suffering prisoners. The supplies liowever, were not equal to the demand. Ono of the surgeons says their own condi tion was much alleviated by permission to purche necessaries outside of the prison. A dispatch of the 2Glli snys : At Man nssas artillery firing was heard during the morning which appeared in the direction ol one of the ferries on the Rapldnn. Every pound of bagL'tiirc and camp equipage not necessary for daily use has been sent to the rear. The lost stores on the line of the Alexandria Railroad, issued to the army lute last night and early this morning, the depot of the Commissaries and Quarter master, with nil their tents and camp equipage, were sent to Alexandria. Richmond papers of llw 24th declare that war is the sole policy of the South, unci mention with considerable bitterness that one or two papers in Georgia, as well us in North Carolina, nit; uihocntes of peace. The Examiner says a plot of the Union prisoners to burn Richmond bus been discovered, and 800 Union prisoners were sent from Richmond to Danville. A large prison is also being erected iu Geor gia for their accommodation. A Washington dispatch to the Ilemfd, says that n large amount of Cotton, amount dig, it is believed, to nearly two millions of bales acciitnnluttil nt Atlanta, Gu., belong ing to the people and the Rebel Govern ment, and it is expected thut Grant intends making n rapid movement on that point. It will be difficult to reinovo nny consider able portion of this couob to stive It from capture. , The Tribune's special says although DurnsMc is invested by forces in position on the north side of Knoxville, und al though no direct advices have been receiv ed from dim during the tast two days, it is believed that the measures Gen. Grant lias taken for his relief will bo successful, and liia assailants soon find themselves on the defensive, with a prospect of being tuken prisoners, or forced into an inglorious re treat. Very full semi-official dispatches descrip tive of the operations yesterday in front of Chattanooga wero received hero to-day. They speak in terms of tho most enthusi astic udmirution of tho conduct of the troops, particularly of tho divisions of Generals Wood und Sheridan, now em braced in the command of Gen. Hooker. "i'heso men, excited by their success in oaTrying tho rifl-'-pits on tho slope of Mis sionary Ridge, which they had been order ed to take at all hazards, rushed up the precipico beyond und curried tho crest of the hill, captured home thirty cannon and thousands of prisoners. Neither Grant nor Thomas believed tho hill emild bo ear ned by a direct attack, and no orders wero 'given for tho assault, mid the officers wero id most literally swept along in the current of soldiers. The hill, besides beiuir exceed ingly Rteep, was enfiladed by artillery both ' lo the rijrht and left. The number of prh' ii"ih liiken is reported to be .VitiO. but it' is tjuuijjhi it wiij be luri'y inuuusul by stragglers, of whom large numbers arc still coming in. This morning Brngg's forces were massed nenr Rossvlllo, in tho Forks of Chlcknhiauga, to the left of the position Just Won by our army. A special Washington dispatch to the Philadelphia Enquirer says its correspon dent at the front reKtrts telegraphic com munication with Meade complete, and should Meade succeed in getting possession of the Virginia Central railroad and the Richmond and Fredericksburg railroad, he will be able to establish u new and shorter line for himself, at the sumo time cutting off the main line of the enemy with Rich mond. Lee must cither fight or attempt to reach Richmond by a circuitous route. The Heights of Fredericksburg are within Meade's grusp, and with this stronghold in his power und a short line of railroad for his supplies, ho may move rapidly on Rich mond, reaching there in fivo or six days. His army is well supplied will) pontoons to cross small streams on tho route. A special dispatch to the Tribune from Washington 27th, says : Advices received this morning by tho War Department, from Gen. Grant, statu that the pursuit of the rebels was continued yesterday by tlonker und Thomas. Dragg attempted to make a stand nt Chickamauga Station but was again forced back. Tho Rebels ure.in full retreat on Dulton. There is nothing later from Rurnsidc. It is conjectured that Longs t reel will at tempt to rejoin Drugg, but ample provis ion has been made to prevent the consum mation of uny such uttempt; therefore he will be forced to retreat into Virginia if he Is able to get away at all. In the several buttles just fought before Chattanooga wc huve captured 7,000 pris oners at least. The Republican has the following in nn extra : The Army of the Potomac advanc ed yesterday morning, und undoubtedly has crowed the Rapiduu without much oppo sition, as firing wus heard at Uealton Sta tion, which commenced at 9 o'clock, und was kept up until .'I P. M. The sound re ceding all the time till it wus scarcely heard, is an evidence that Lee is retreating towards Richmond. Richmond papers huve tho following from Charleston the 20th : " Between two and three this morning, tho enemy in sev eral bnrges approached Fort Sumter, and upon being hulled from the Fort discharged several volleys of musketry, which were replied to by the garrison. The engage ment lasted lifted or twenty minutes, when the barges withdrew. Forts Moultrie1, Roe and Johnson also opened on the barges. It is not known what damage was done to them." Another dispatch from Charleston, the 23d, says: Last night eighteen shells were thrown into the city. Ten buildings were struck, but no person injured. Tho fire on Fort Sumter continued heavy during the night. A spirited fight between Hatteries Gregg and Wagner, and llee, Johnson and Moultrie, took place this afternoon. Gregg fired heavily on Moultrie, and Wagner on Johnson. Our fire was remarkably accu rate, compelling the enemy to leave their guns. It closed at dark. The firing on tiumter continues heavy. Washington 27th. The Army of the Potomac moved early yesterday morning towards the Rapidan, and headquarters followed at 7 o'clock. The army advanc ed in three columns, to cross at as inuuy different fords. Headquarters huve received a dispatch from General Grunt, dated Chattanooga, 27th. 10 A. M., stuling that the rout of tho enemy is complete. They abandoned their vngnns ; caissons and pieces of ar tillery were found everywhere. He thinks Rragg's loss in artillery is fully sixty pieces. A large number of prisoners were captured, and the pursuit will con tinuo to Red Clay in the morning. Grant snys he starts for there in a few hours. New York. 27lh. Money activo at 71 per cent. Gold heavy, closing at 1-14. A debating clnb in Westchester lately dis cussed the important question, "Whether a rooster's knowledge of daybreak is tho result of observation or instinct." At a factory in Portland nearly 1,000 bushels of -potatoes tiro" concentrated" lor the army every day. Uapplne.'fi is like a pig with a greaod tail which uvo.:y one runs aftyr, but ngbudv can hold.

Astonished, he cried out: "Who are you?' The voice at onca unswered: "Who are you?" "Your are a stupid little fool ?" cried the boy, beginning to bo angry. "Stupid little fool!" came buck again from the wall. Tho boy grew enraged, and in his pas sion shouted all manner of ubuslve names; tho wull gave them nil faithfully buck again. Then the child searched all over for the mocking boy, that ho might tuke vengence on him; but no creaturo could be found but u harmless pussy huutiug spur rows. " There!" said his mother, ' you hove betrayed yourself ! You heard only your own words reflected from theT wall as you have seen your own Tuce, sometimes, reflect en from a glass. If you had 'ghen kind tones und friendly winds, kind-tones and friendly words would Huve returned to you again. And so it ulwuys is;;thc conduct of others is but the echo of your own.
