THE COMMANDER AT RICHMOND. ■
We were in error yesterday In stating that Gen.'
Hood bad taken coinhiand around Richmond. We
ar** more pleased .to learn that this gallant com•
• manderand popular favorite, whose nomination
has been recently confirmed as lieutenant.general* 1
has been assigned to the Army of Tennessee, and
will take the field there in that conscious'and cri
tical theatre of the war in the course of the next
fertnighti The forces defending Richmond were,
ns heretofore, under Gen. Elzey, whose arrange
ments were made with judgment, and on good in
formation of the wliole facts, as proven by the re
sults on this as on previous similar occasions.
GENERAL .LEE’S REFORT OF APE AIRS ON THE
' RAPIDAN.
Orange Court House Feb. 8, 1864.—General
S. Cooper, Adjutant-GeneralThe force of the
enemy which crossed at Morion’s Forfi on Satur
cay were drjyento the river under cover of their
guns. That evening or during the night they re-
the north bank, butremained in position,
yesterday. This morning they have disappeared.
'1 hey left seventeen dead and forty-six prisoners
in our. heads. Our loss was four killed : aud
twenty wounded. The guard at the ford, a lieu
tenant and twenty-five men, while bravely resist
ing the passage of the enemy, were captrired. The
enemy’s cavalry, which appeared at Barnett’s on
Saturday, retired across Robinson riveron Sunday
evening. > R. E. LEE, General Commanding.
Orange Court House, Feb. 8, 18G1.— One cap
tain and thirty-nine privates, captured at Bar
nett’s Ford by- General Early’s division, were
brought in this morning
The eneny crossed at Barnett’s Ford early this
morning, but soon recrossed again.
[From the Richmond Examiner, Feb. 9,]
The movement of the enemy appears to have
been no more important than a feint or reeonnois
sauce. Recent Northern papers mention that
Meade is still in Philadelphia, and it is altogether
improbable that the enemy’s force in Northern
V irgima contemplates any serious advance in the
absence of their commander. ,
REPORTS FROM KNOXVILLE
Morristown, Feb. Sth, 1864. —Reports -from
Kuoxvillp, by various sources, represent that the
garrison there is in a state of great suffering from
the smallpox, of which there are seven hundred
cases; and a scarcity of rations. ;
The Federal prisonors captured have bread
made of unbolted flour. *
The. train ran to Strawberry Plains, within fif
teen miles of Knoxville, yesterday.
1 AFFAIRS IN CHARLESTON HARBOR.
Charleston, Feb. 8,1864. —The enemy renewed
their lire on the citydast evening.
A fifth monitor made its appearance in the harbor
10-day. The position of the fleets in other respects
is unchanged.
The enemy are engaged in mounting several
guns at Wagner bearing upon the channel.
A two hundred pounder Parrott shell exploded
last week in Charleston in the blacksmith s shot
connected with one of tho foundries, wounding
the boys employed in the shop—one 'mor
tally, one seriously. and four slightly. The alarm
be lin the steeple of the First station partook of
the general alarm on Sunday, and ring itself
hoarse, cracking its throat in the attempt to call
out the militia. Its tongue could hardly articu
late a sound yesterday, and the bell will be of
little futnre service m ringing the hours or sound
ing fire “alarms.” “Somuchforoverexertion. ”
[From the Wilmington (N. O.) Journal.]
Gradually the constant dropping of the enemy’s
shot and shell is beginning to tell upon the lower
portion of the city of Charleston. Their chief spite,
from what we can learn, appears to have been
turned against Broad street: at least, its effects are
most apparent in that vicinity. The street i 6 *on
siderably encumbered with bricks and other debris
knocked out by the enemy’s projectiles. It wll
take much time and money to repair the damage.
GEREBAL LEE o>* THE VAE.
[From ihe Columbia South Carolinian ]
A gentlemen who has jnst arrived in Columbia,'
from Richmond, brings the cheering intelligence
that General Lee, in conversation with a bevy of
friends recently, made the remark that with twenty
thousand additional men in his army, and forty
thousand additions! troops in the army of General
Johnson, we could whip all the Yankee tribes
that may be brought against us. He farther ob
served that ifthe contest was prolonged until Sep
tember next, and we should meet with no grave
disaster/, (which General Lee did not anticipate),
the greatest crisis ol the war would be snccesstullv
passed.
JOtTICIPATED trrjUSIKG OP THE CTfIOJI PfiISOXEIIS
AT BELLE IBLAXD
We understand, that the military authorities felt
warranted yesterday,acting upon information dis
closed through an anonymous in
adopting extraordinary measures to prevent- an
uprising of the Yankee prisoners of war held on
Belle Island, such a demonstration being hinted at
as on the tapis. We will not state what arc the
preparations made to put down summarily any
such foolish coup d'etat on the part ot the prisoners;
but we may state, for the benefit of the prisoners,
that they are ample enough to relievo the public
mind from any apprehension that they may be telf
on. that.score.
FBOM CHATTAKOOGA.
[Correspondence of the Cincinnati Commercial.!
Chattanooga, Feb. s. —Generals Schofield and.
Sjoneman are now here, awaiting the first boat to
Knoxville, to; take thoir respective commands.
General Stoneman was offered the command either
of the 4th or :13d Army Corps or the cavalry, and
chose the latter.
Yesterday, General Thomas, accompanied by
bis two -visitors, made the tour of the fortifications
and Lookout Mountain. The work on the former
is steadily progressing; and from the general ap
pearance of the improvements now in progress
here, it would appeur that the Government in
tends to make of this a permanent military post.
As it has been Chattanooga, the “Eagle’s Nest,”
heretofore, and is still, irom the immense natural
strength, so it is befitting that it should be, lor
all future time, the national Chattanioga. a place
where the arms of the Republic, the patron Eagle,
shall rest, unscared and unchallenged by all
future. rebels. One of these indications is the
water-works which are being erected near the
rlvey, from the rains of some old rebel mills, and
upon which a force of at least a hundred men is
employed daily. These works will elevate the
water about two hundred test, to the top of
Cameron Hi'l, from which it will be distributed
through the village, and, doubtless, to the various
iorts surrounding it There is even a rumor that
there will be founded here, eventually, a military
school, and certainly there are very few places in
the West where the atmosphere is more military,
and the surroundings more suggestivo of battle.
I could not resist the temptation yesterday to
pay a visit to the top of Lookout. The two miles
with which I set outstretched to five before the
summit was gained,and the last one was precisely
a mile and-three-quaners. A landscape extendin'
into four, and, perhaps, the fifth State, plowed
into vast ranges by the Alleghenies, looming off
one beyond another, till the farthest and highest’
disputes the passage ot the clouds, the Tennessee
drawing its silvery band in lastly, lengthened
wanderings across the expanse, Chattanooga,
with its thousand tents, its red forts of
clay and its straggling houses beneath you,
a train of cars creeping up the
winding valley, around the base of the mountain
and over all arching the great, bine heavens,
while the scattered cloud-epots, on a level with
your eyes, Drift vaguely about in the dreamy air
—such are the magniflcentohtUnes which one must
lihger and gase upon for hours to complete.
The mountain itself runs parallel with the other
ranges, m a southwest direction, and rises at an
angle of from thirty to fifty degrees, tilt it reaches’
the crowning ledge, which is perpendicular for
sixty or one hundred feet, completing the summit
in the shape of the skylight of a railroad car—to
speak alter the manner of plain men.
A couple of - enterprising members of the 78th
Pennsylvania have taken possession of the sum
mit, erected a shed, hoisted np materials over a
couple of ladders, and are now reaping an abnn
dantharvest oi greenbacks'by taking pictures in
this elevated locality. The soldiers crowd herein

novelty of the matter, cannot resist the temptation
.to have- a picture- of themselves. Accordingly,

the cliff, twenty.two hundred feet above the level
of the Tennessee, either defiant and warlike, or
musing and abstracted, as their genius prompts,

TENTH WARD
AND THE DEAFT!!
The Executive Comruitteff of the Tenth Ward,
appointed to s. licit subscriptions to the Bounty-
Fund, whereby the quota of the Ward may he
filled by Volunteers instead of drafted men would
urgently call the attention of those who have not
subscribed to the necessity of so doing immediately.
The Committee have been obliged to suspend an.
listing men for want, at funds. Six thousand dol
lars, if now. subscribed, will enable the Ward to
fill its quota under both calls of the President.
The great majority of those who are subject to the
dratt and the ones most particularly interested,
ha'e not contributed to this fund." It now remains
with them to supply the deficiency or take their
chances of being drafted. These are, therefore,
paiticnliriy nt ged to come fjrwardand subscribe.-
The object is one which appeals to the benevo
lent as well as to the patriotic, and is one to which
all classes of society should nobly respond. Sub-,
sciiptions may he leit with or forwarded to any of
the Executive Committee, or either of the fallow
ing named gentlemen:
