But that which, apart from the moral effect of this great Alabama triumph, will be the best result, is the striking off the chains of the Union people of Eastern Tennessee—a people who, by their valor and perseverance and self-sacri ficing patriotism, recall the examples of past history, when men welcomed the scaffold fm opinion's sake, and gladly gave tp their lives rather than do violence to their consciences. This incalculable advantage, won on the very threshold of winter, and at a period when both armies Were suffering for want of provisions, will not only open to our own troops safe and commodious communications, but will pour into sections held heretofore by the iron hand of the rebellion, the life-blood of trade and those domestic comforts long withheld from and denied to our friends in that section.

NEW YORK MITI. [Correspondence of Tha Press. .1 NEW Yong, Nov. 25, 1863 A DUELLING EEPaINISOENOE A weff known and most estimable lady, whose name was, Rome years ago, connected by gossip with a duel between , a brace of fashionable gentlemen, has recently dieff in this city. The facts of the case Were not very plainly understood at the time; per haps there was nothing about them worthy of being 'understood ;' at all events, the two gentlemen, one of whom is now a wealthy banker and a prominent pOlitician, went out with pistols, and one of them came bask in a carriage. It seems that there was some ill feeling between these valorous individuals, Which culminated at length in a . challenge ; some said Oa accountsof this lady. A—, the party of the first part, and B—, the banker, accordingly took practice in the shooting galleries, and perfected themselves to the best of their abilities in the ~ma. nipuiation of firearms. A little while ago a tree was out down upon the Bloomingdale road, which contained a score or more of bullets, tired at it by, one or beth tf the determined duellists whilst preparing for the interesting occasion. 'Previous to the meeting, A— expressed his determination to leave B— in an unpleasant predicament, while in all probability, was 'equally menacing. When the day arrived, both ,parties betook them- Selves to the Elysian Fields. at Hoboken, Which, by the way, is the favorite duelling ground of city swells, and then and there proceeded to load and prime: The result was that A— aimed at his an tagonist,s heart, and wounded him in the hip, while fired somewhere in the direction of the sun, damaging nothing material, as far as heard from. To-day the banker riles in his carriage, lamed for life. The lady married neither one of the gentle men. Aa all parties moved in the best circles of society, a great ['mention was created by the affair, Which, indeed, has not yet been forgotteni:7 those eogniiant of 'the facts, or familiar with the actors in the drama, which had almost become a tragedy. A SOUTHERN SISTER A sister of one of our "Southern brethren," who now occupies the opulent position of colonel of Con federate troops, has been indulging in the favorite pastime of shoplifting at Stewart% and, in conse quence, has fallen into the hands of the brutal Yankees. The lady rejoices in the name of °oder denk sometimes, of Clernand at others. Previourdy -arrested by the Government for complicity with the rebels, she was ordered to Fort Lafayette ; but somehow, and probably, for some reason, she was let loose upon the city, secure of the sympathy •Of all good Democrats of the Copperhead persua sion. Since then, she has foraged very extensively along Broadway, cutting off straggling pieces of silk, and capturing laces, gloves, and such small but Gently articles as might be met with during her incessant raids. On Sunday last she made her appearance at Stewart's, and in the course of an in teresting debate upon high prices, Sc., conveyed divers and sundry laces into her capacious pockets. salesman, who observed the occurrence, caused her arrest. Upon searching her reside - nee, a quantity Of " indiscriminate loot" was found, which' had pro• bably been pilfered at. various times by this sunny: hearted daughter of the South. The event will un doubtedly cause numerous protests from the organs Of Tammany and Mozart Ilall, on behalf of an out raged Constitution, and against , arbitrary arrests. This is not the first instance of a Southern belle en gaging in the delightful but immoral pastfine of Shoplifting 'among the Yankee storekeepers. Perti nent to the same idea is the fact that the Copperheads are grumbling over the incarceration of the noto. Mous " Andrews," the Virginian who led the mob of July. The Government has offered the district at torney an opportunity for trying him for crimes against the State, previous to its own proceedings against him for treason, and the necessary evidence against him is now being procured. Upon this state ment of facts, the Copperheads are grumbling lest the miserable instrument of their own evil passions shall be twice put in jeopardy of his life. Our harbor is at last clear of the Russian fleet proper, and Ii Re Galantuomo, the' Italian man-of- War, is left•nearly alone in the bay. The Re de =tare, wan"' n.. -lug been built for the Italian Government in one of our amp lies at dock in Hoboken, within stone's throw of the iron- rina of that Great Unappreciated, the "Stevens Bat. tery." This latter lies at the yard, like the bony fragments of sonic gigantic monster ; some lethyo- Ileums whore bones have been blackened by smoke. Just so it has stood almost since the memory of the present generation, and there it probably will stand as a monument of somebody's stupidity, and somebody else's recklessness, until the rust has honeycombed its vast ribs, or dome opulent junk dealer sees fit to make a fair offer for it. Half-a.- dozen times we have heard of the resumption of Work upon it, but there the matter has ended. Fernando Wood addressed a Secession meeting at Bergen (N. J.), last evening, and, as the State has no identity of its own, its news properly comes un der the head of New York local items. A table was spread, wines provided, and during the evening seve ral toasts were drunk in a very drunken ;Miner, which were all criminatory of Abolitionism, the war, and common decency. Wood's address was of the usual stripe, and, consequently, not worthy of much attention. Gounod , s opera of "Faust" is announced for thin evening at the Academy, and will, doubtlessly, be the event of the season. Its European reputation has set all musical connoisseurs upon the tip-toe of expectation. &PUY VESADIT. R'ASIiiNG~~N: *Special Despatches to The Press.

The rebel forces are utterly routed to-day, and in full retreat towards Dalton, Georgia, and firing the bridges after them to retard pursuit, and burning their depots and stores, and abandoning or destroying everything that would embarrass their flight. , Our forces were i:oursuing them this morning. CHATTAisTOOG . A, Nov. 26.—General Bragg's retreat from his position ofj.ast night is represented as a perfect rout. General Sheridan reached Chickamauga station at 4 o'clock this morning ; he cap tured five hundred, prisoners, four guns, and a number of pontoons. The enemy attempted to burn the bridge behind him, and partially. succeeded. The enemy also burned' the . &pat and stores at Chickamauga. General Sherman crossed the Chicka mauga. this morning. General Hooker was reported at Ringgold at 5 o'clock this evening. The desertions and captures from the rebel army are rapidly thinning it The number of cannon captured thus far is reported at fifty-two, including the cele brated Loomis battery which was lost by us at Chickamauga. General Sherman's loss is much -less than was estimated, and willprobably not exceed five, hundred. Nearly, six thousand prisoners have been repOrted as captured. The son of General Breckhuidge, and Ma jor Wilson, his chief of staff, were brought in among the prisoners. - General Breckin ridge himself narrowly escaped. A strong column is in pursuit of the'ene my, and it is not impossible that another 'disastrous defeat will be forced on him. houtsviLLE, Nov. 26.—The following despatch dated Chattanooga, November 25th, received by the "General Breckinridge's son has just been brought In a prisoner,l) Among the killed are Captain Barney,Lieutenant Wise, and Colonel Putnam; severely wounded, Captain Daniel O'Connor, Captain Brown ; wound ed, Lieutenant Colonel Gilmore, Captain Davis, Ad jutant Tucker, Lieutenant Colonel Reath, Major Johnston, and Adjutant Bond. Our camp fires last night were blazing along the crest of the whole ridge, a distance of eight miles. Bragg was expected to withdraw under cover of the night. At dark Bragg was in line of battle. Our army was aglow with enthusiasm, and eager to pursue. Prisoners report that the.rebel army is. terribly demoralized, and incapable of offering any serious resistance ; also, that Bragg will fall back to Atlanta.

[Correspondence of the Chronicle. 3 Annuity, Culpeper county, ye., Nov, 21. In your paper of the 20th an article headed with Day name, over the signature of " Bohemian," ap peared, in which the writer represents himself as having visited my house, and that I told him of a variety of things that I had said to Gen. Stuart, a portion of which would have been offensive to Gen. Stuart and to thatportion of the army under his com mand. will you, in justice to myself, allow me to say that, if I am not misinformed as to the author of this communication, he has never visited, my house that I am aware , of, and that I have never held any such conversation with him or any other person, and that I could not have done so without a very gross departure from truth, inaemueli as I never ex changed a word with General Stuart in my life on any subject. Moreover, if all the writer says were true, nothing could have justified his furnishing it for publication without may authority, inasmuch as every rule that regulates intercourse between gentlemen would for bid any visitor from • publishing the private conver sation that might ensue without permission. I have already been made a victim to great outrage from misrepresentations (perhaps unintentional) of what I have said, with no expectation, however, of having any portion of my conversation communica ted for the public press. Does " Bohemian" desire to draw upon me the vengeance of the Southern army if it should return to this vicinity? I suppose not; but then, why such unauttiorized statements? what I have to say respecting General Stuart or thoee under his command I have already furnished for publication, both North and South, over my own signature, which, I hope, they will have an oppor tunity of reading. I may as well remark here that it is a very short time since a publication appeared in a Northern pa per (which was copied by the Richmond papers) giving the substance of a conversation which I am represented to have reported as having occurred be , tweet) Mr. Judah P. Benjamin and myself, when in truth I had never exchanged salutations with Mr. Benjamin, and, therefore, could have had no such conversation with him. The illustration furnished I had given to more than officer of the Govern ment, both civil and military, but never to Mr. Ben jamin. It.must be perceived, therefore, when these representations meet the public eye, if Mr. Benjamin or Gen. Stuart should choose to -say, what I have said here, that no conversation of any kind had passed between us, which for aught I know they may have clone already, the responsibility of the misrepresentation would be thrown upon me when I might have no means at my command for setting myself right.

SUPPER AT THE MOYAMENSING LITERA RY (INSTITUTE —For some time past a Number of poor, neglected, and uneducated boys, living in the vicinity of Eleventh and Christian streets, have been in the habit of attending the Moyamensing Li terary Institute, where great attention has been paid them by the managers, In the way of. Liter. speraing knowledge among them. A lady hag been employed for said purpose, who visits the reading room nightly, and reads to them interesting and in structive books, at the same time explaining such sentences as are difficult for their young minds to understand. This movement is au excellent one, and has already produced a great effect by keeping them off the streets, where they would moat likely get into bad company, and unfit themselves for any high position in after-life. The managers of the institute, appreciating the attention and good be havior of the young lads, invited them to the place last evening, where a handsoine collation was spread'out for their especial benefit, and which the youngsters indulged in to their heart's content. If other institutions would adopt the same plan, great benefit would be derived from it by the community. CITY Irr]P..lllS.
