irefitilsra high ridge known as Mission
Ridge ; west-of the town, also beginning
st the tiver-and running parallel to Ma-
Mai - ridge, is ' another alnioat similar,
tooltoit, Mountain. Thalopi of
thri' two are about five miles apart, and
the vallq.between it filled With wooded
cipure of both. 'West of Lookout, . running
'along its base, and falling into the Ten
haste' river, is Lookout creek. East of
Mission Ridge, running along its baie and
also into the river, is the Chicktunauga.—
We then - have a valley, with a ridp on
tad side, and a strewn on the outside of
each ridge, all running parallel from , north
east to southwest. Chattanooga is atthe
upper end of the valley.
The Confederates have heretofore held
the northern ends of both the ridges, and
the Federal soldiers have occupied a thin
i.trip of land between Lookout creek and
the south bank of the Tengessee.. The
bulk of their army has been upon the
north bank, Before thO late operations
began, Gen. Hooker confronted the ene
my on Lookout mountain, and Geri. Sher
man opposed the garrison upon the Mis
sion Ridge.
On Monday Gen. Hooker began the
flea by crossing from the narrow neck of
hind' to •the south side of Lookout creek
r ind driVing the enemy's pickets before
' Nat - ewer some coniparatively , Sande,
until be 'had ca tared the ground up.to
the baSe of Lookout Mountain. Here he
rented for the night, having Jost one bun
dredmen and captured 109 of the enemy.
On Tuesday he again advanced up the
slope of Lookout Mountain, •having about
-18,000 men in hisinlumn. He fought
Streunously all day, gradually moving up
the side of the mountain, and at six in the
evening had carried the front pretty Well
up, and part. of one of the side slopes. He
e &pissed about 1,900 prisoners,but his loss
was severe. Geo. Sherman, on the east
side of the town, also advanced on Tues
day moraine , upon Mission Ridge. He
crossed to the south hauls of the Tennes
see with 25,000 men, and by evening had
carried the northern end of this mountain.
He does not appear to have captured ma
n y prisoners, and his loss is not reported.
l'th columns rested on their arms on
Tuesday evening. The Confederates
seem to have fought,hard, disputing eve-
ry inch of ground, and at nightfall were
still on higher ground, up which the Fed
eral army would have to fight the nest
Yesterday the battle was again renew
ed. During the eight the Confederates
evacuated Lookout Mountain and retired
across the intervening - valley to Mission
Ridge. General hooker advanced early
in the day and occupied the yielded
grounded. General Sherman also ad
vanced to capture the remaioing works
on Mission Ridge. He had to pass across
a valley to attack the enemy, and fought
by far the most severe contest. of all. The
enemy poured their shot and shell upon
his storming parties and drove them hack
after severe struggles. In the afternoon
Sherman was preparing to make his third
assault, when General Grant aided him
with the reserve of the army. This body
marched out of Chattanooga, and after
going a short distance up the 'valley be
tween the ridges turned to the left, and
0 ;ended the slope of Mission Ridge. -At
the.same time, Sherman attacked in front
After a fierce battle the crest of the hill
thus. attacked on both -sides was yielded,
and the Confederates retired southward,'
down the slopes of the ridge.' One col
umn baited at.Rossville, five miles south
of Chattanooga, and another stopped on
the eastern side of the Chickamauga.—
Thus they rested - last night.
The C., • te have, in till, 'been driv
ler about- and- - now confront
Grant in a new position,: Their left, iii op
on the centre or Mission Ridge. Their
right upon Chicamauga. They :extend'
around to Abe southeastward of Chattin
ooga, eovering the railroad communiCa ,
tion with Longstreet. The losses on both
sides appear to have been very heavy.—
The Federal army claims to have taken 5,-
000 prisoners.. Today will very likely
witness another contest as 'fierce as yes
terday's.

acting at Chattanoo ga , is still shutup at

and wounded is placed at from- 3,500 to
6,000.-. Different 'lumbers of prisonereare
reported captured, the amounts 'ranging
from 3,00010 7,000. Bragg's loss-in Can
non is enormoui. Grant, thus far, has
kept up bit pursuit much better than has
been done by any victorions Federal Gen.
eral heretofore ;:but until he can drive
the enemy from ; Chattanooga ridge, (or
John's Monatain„i as some maps have it,)
he will not bare reaped all the fiuitsof his
victory.. _
Various indications give color to the
idea that the siege of Knoxville was rah;-
ed on Tuesday or Wednesday, and that
Longstreet is by time back •at Bragg's
camp, on Chatagoota Ridge. Having a
railroad all the way, in - good . working or
der, he could readily move-the greater
portion of his army over the intervening
sixty miles in three days. If he be with
Bragg, the Confederates ought to be able
to defend their railroad without much
trouble. • On Monday last . heavy cannon
ading was heard. at Knoxville and up to
that time several - hundred 'Fe deral prison
ers had been captured. The absence-of
any reports of firing hear d since semis to
indicate that hoitilities have ceased. The
Richmond Eximiiner of Monday said, sig
nificantly, "There is a rumor that Long
street has been 'stopped talon in high ca
reer by the failure of expected coopera
tion from Confederate forces in -Emit Ten
nessee." The troops from Virginia are
unable to - penetrate Ball's Gao, and at
tack Knoxville from the east. All is still
involved in- gloom, -however, rind at pres
ent advises, no decided opinion ••can be
given. Nothing has been hoard from
Burnside since Nov. 19th, bat vague irre
sponsible rumors..
