It is probable that the draft will be abandoned fel e new plan of volunteering with bounties de rived from the draft commutation fund. It has been ascertained that more men were obtained with less expense under the recruiting system than by the draft, and there is a strong disposi fan to return to the volunteer enlistment. One singular feature has been developed by the draft. Numerous letters have been received from Sena ton and members of Congress, who voted for the Conscription bill, but not one of them has asked for a construction of the law that would take a drafted man into the army.

The fifth Democratic Ratification Mass Meet ing for Berks county, was held at Manderbach's Spring, opposite Wonelsdorf, on Saturday last, September 19th, 1865. It was an immense out pouring of the people of the Western part of our county—the Democratic Clubs of Spring, the Heidelbergs, Cumin, Womelsdorf, Marion, the TulpeLoccons, Bethel, and other townships, being represented by large delegations. She Marion d e legation, in particular, made an imposing.dis ty. They came in a long train of carriages, at;the head of which was a four-horse wagon, beauti fully decked with evergreens, flowers and flags, sal containing thirty four young ladies (repre senting the States of the unbroken Union), who enlivened the scene by singing patriotic songs as they approached the Spring. A number of -ap propriate banners were also carried in the pro cr=bion, which was under the direction of Maj. John Bechtold, as Chief Marshal. The meeting was organized at 2 o'clock, P. M., by the election of the following of f icers: President—JOHN IL SMITH, Esq. l'iee Preside-Paz—Elias Filbert, Samuel Fisher, :1414, Richard, Henry Roche], Frederick Horner, bavid L.

The several speakers were loudly ap -I.lBuded, and the best spirit prevailed from the beginning to the close of the meeting. WAR NEWS! FROM. HOSECRANS'S Great Battle near Chattanooga, Georgia. Three Days' Desperate Fighting. GREAT SLAU.RGTER OF THE ENEMY Our Loss 1.700 Killed. and 8,000 Wounded- Official Dispatches from Gen• Rosecrans HE HOLDS A STRONG POSITION WASIIINGTON, Tuesday, Sept. 22, IS€3 The Star anti National Republican, in their late editions this afternoon, have accounts of the late great battle near Chattanooga, evidently derived from official sources. The longer one, from the Evening Star, is as follows : On Saturday, the I.d.h, a demonstration was Made by the rebels in strong force, whitsh ap pears to have been repelled by the force under Gan. Thomas, with the advantage on the Union side. On Sunday an engagement commenced late in the morning. The first gun was fired at nine A. M., but nu considerable firing took place un til tea. Previous to ten o'clock Gen. Rosecrans rode the whole length of our line. Soon after, the battle commenced. General Thomas, who held the left, began to call for reinforcements. About twelve o'clock word came that he had been forced to retire. The second line of reinforcements were then sent to him, and McCook's whole corps, which was then on the right add as a reserve in the centre, was sent to his assistance. Gen. Wood, of Crittenden's corps, and Van Cleve, who held the front centre, were also ordered to the left, where the fury of the cannonade showed that the enemy's force was massed. Their places were filled by Davis and Sheridan, of Gen. McCook's corps. But hardly had these (divisions taken their places in the line, when the rebel fire, which had slackened, burst out in im mense volleys upon the centre. This lasted about twenty minutes, and then Van Cleve, on Thomas' right, was seen to give way, but in tolerable order; soon sifter which the line's of Sheridan and Davis broke in disor- der, borne down by the enemy's columns, which are said to have consisted of Polk's corps. These two divisions were the only divisions thrown in to much disorder. Those of Negley and Van Cleve were thrown into confusion, but soon rallied and held their places, the first on the left and the second on the right of Thomas' corps. Davis and Sheridan, late in the day, succeeded in rallying about eight thousand of their forces and joined Thomas. Gen. Thomas, finding himself cut off from the right, brought his division into position for inde pendent fighting, his line assuming the form of a horseshoe along the crest of a wooded ridge. He was soon joined by Granger, from Roseville, with a division of Gen. 'McCook and Gen. Stead man's division, and with these forces firmly maintained the fight until after dark. Our troops were as immovable as the reeks they stood on. The enemy repeatedly hurled against them the dense columns which had routed Davis and Sheridan in the morning; but every onset was repulsed with dreadful slaughter. Failing first ou one and then on the other point of our lines, the rebels for hours vainly sought to break them. Gen. Thomas seemed to have filled every soldier with his own unconquerable firmness ; and General Granger, his hat torn by bullets, rode like a lion wherever the combat was thickest. Every division commander bore him— self gloriously, and among them Generals Tur— chen, Hazen and Parker especially distinguished themselves. Tnrchen charged through the rebel lines with the bayonet, anti being surrounded, forced his way back again. Parker, who had two horses shot under him on Saturday, forming his men in one line, made them lie down until the enemy was close upon them, when suddenly they rose and delivered their fire, with such effect that the assaulting columns fell back in confusion, leaving the ground covered with killed. When night fell, this body of heroes stood on the same ground occupied .By them in the morning, their spirits being unbroken. Their losses are not yet estimated. Gen. Thomas telegraphs (Monday forenoon) that the troops are in high spirits. He brought off all his wounded. Of the sick and wounded at Crawfish Springs, including our main hospital, nearly all had been brought away. The number of prisoners taken by the enemy will hardly surpass two thousand, besides the wounded, of whom not more than one thousand could have fallen into their hands. Of rebel prisoners we have sent thirteen hundred to Nashville. Most of our losses in artillery were occasioned by the killing of all the horses. Gen. Thomas retired to Roseville on Sunday night after the battle had closed. General Rosecrans bad issued orders for all his troops to be concentrated with the forces at Chattanooga. • hi the last two assaults our troops fought with baronets, their ammunition being exhausted. The latest information that has reached this ciiy is from Chattanooga last evening, and was to the effect that Gen. Rosecrans would concen trate on Chattanooga last night. General Thomas had been engaged with the enemy prior to five P. id, yesterday, and it was therefore questionable whether he would be able to reach Chattanooga last night. There were indications that the enemy were contemplating a demonstration on another part of our line last arming. OFFICIAL DISPATCHES FROM GENERAL RO- I= WASHINGTON, Wednesday, Sept. 23 Dispatches from Gen. Rosecrane, dated Chat tanooga, at three and five o'clock, yesterday af: ternoon, were received by the Government this morning, from which it appears that the enemy's attack upon General Thomas' Corps, (Rosecrans' left,) on Monday afternoon, was handsomely re pulsed, and Gen. Thomas marched quietly to the position his forces were about to take when they were assaulted. The official dispatches of Monday evening stated that two divisions of Loogstreet's Corps were advancing upon Rosecrans at 4 o'clock on that afternoon, but it turned out that the move ment was merely for the purpose of a reconnois sance, as no attack was made. Gen. Rosecrans' order for hip entire command to concentrate Was accomplished before mid night of that day, ant it is now in a strong de fensive position which can be easily held until reinforcements arrive. . This movement of the troops was executed in excellent order, and, although they had been worked bard for several days and 'nights, they were in fine spirits. Four thousand of our wounded were removed from the field after the battle of Sunday. Gen. Lytle was the only general officer killed on our side, while Bragg acknowledges the loss of the enemy in officers to be very heavy. The regulars of our reserves went into the bat tle 1,600 strong, and came out with only 415. This shows the persistency with which our troops contested for every inch of ground. Gen Roseerans has performed wonders in reaching his present position after fighting with hie single command against the immense force .pf picked troops combined against him. In two or three days he will be able to assume offensive operations. When the last dispatch of yesterday closed the enemy was quite active. Re had been making approaches all the morning. Gen. Rosecrame men were in line and ready for another encounter. Gen. Graham, who commanded one of our brigades at Gettysburg, and was taken prisoner and conveyed to Richmond, has recently been exchanged, and reached here this morning. He is satisfied that only two divisions, with all their artillery, have been sent to Bragg. In addition to that, two brigades, under Gen. Pieketts, and Wise's legion, were also detailed to reinforce Bragg. Gen. Graham says be saw eighty-one pieces of artillery moving across the bridge from Rich mond, said to he going to Bragg. The news of the battles fought between Bragg and Rosecrans was a disappointment to the rebel authorities at Richmond. They expected to hear that Rosecrans hal been annihilated, and that Bragg had retaken East Tennessee. Instead of that Richmond is again thrown into a state of mourning by the heavy loss Roseerans has inflicted upon Bragg. Gen. Lytle is not killed, as:reported, but was wounded, and is in the hands of the enemy.

The losses are heavy on both sides, especially so among our officers. We have taken twenty pieces of artillery and 2,500 prisoners. [Signed] Biuno. To Adjutant General Cooper. Iloseerans has been heavily reinforced by troops from Geo. Grant's army. FURTHER REBEL ACCOUNTS OF THE BATTLE =! FORTRESS MONROE, Wednesday, Sept. 23. The flag-of truce steamer New York arrived here at 6 o'clock this evening from City Point. The Richmond Whig of to-day, which has been received by this arrival, reports three days' hard fighting in Northern Georgia, with heavy loss on both sides. The rebel loss was 5,000, including many valuable officers. Among the killed were Brig. Gen. Preston Smith, of Tennessee; Brig. Gen. Wolffird, of Georgia; Brig. Gen. Waltham, of Mississippi; Brigadier Generals Helm and Deshler. Wounded—Brigadier Liens. S. Adams, Brown, Gregg, Bunn, Preston, Cleburn, Benning. Major General Hood was wounded and has since died. NO FIGHTING ON WEDNESDAY. NASHVILLE. Wednesday, Sept. 23 The news from the front to day is meagre. No trains have arrived from the South to night. It is reported that they are being detained to bring up the wounded. A telegram froth the front reports that there was no fighting today. Our forces still hold the position of yesterday, which is an evidence of strength, as every hour increases the chances for reinforcements from Burnside to arrive, and enables our forces to more thoroughly entrench themselves. No definite assurance of the arrival bf rein forcements has yet been received. Brigadier General John H. King, who was re • ported wounded and a prisoner, is neither. A telegram from the front reports him all safe. Major Coolidge, second in command of the same brigade, was certainly killed. TUE LATE BATTLE IN GEORGIA WASHINGTON, Thursday, Sept. 24, 1863. A dispatch from Gen. Rosecrans, dated at Me headquarters, last night, says .41 cannot' be dislodged from my present po— sition." Another dispatch from one of Gen. Rosecran's staff, written at 40 minutes past 11 o'clock last night, says: "No fighting to-day, the 23d." Ciaelasterr, Thursday, Sept. 24, 1863 A correspondent of The New-York herald has arrived here from the battle field of Chattanooga, where he witnessed the two days' fighting. He says that the ofticial reports of the battle, fr'om Washington, are, in the main, totally false, and that realty the Army of the Cumberland has met with a defeat which must put it on the defensive for some time to come. Gen. Thomas's corps is really the only one "Mb did any fighting. On the first day .it defeated Gen. Longatreet, with horrible slaugh ter, driving him in great confusion for over a mile beyond the Chicamauga River. Longstreet, in a two hours' fight, lost 1,000 men in killed, and double that in wounded. McCook's and Crittenden's corps, the same day, were both badly beaten, and the enemy broke the centre, driving Crittenden in every direction. The defeat of this part of the line caused Thomas to abandon his field, and fallback to protect his flank, and re-establish Ids line. At the same time the enemy not knowing what he had accomplished, failed to pursue the advan tage, and Gene. Wood and Negley went in the centre and re-established that part of .the line. The day was ours though the enemy held the field. We had taken three pieces of artillery more than we had lost on the first day, when Gen. Thomas had defeated Longstreet. On the second day he saved the army of Gen. Roseerans from annihilation. Prom 10 to 12 on Sunday, he fought the enemy and repulsed him in three charges, when, finding the assault in vain, the enemy pushed forward on the right and center, and at the first charge broke Crittenden and MoCook's lines, and routed their entire commands, driving them in a dis graceful panic into Roseville and Chattanooga. Gen. Thomas with his corps, still contested the day, and was enabled by the timely reinforce• meat of Gen. Granger, to hold a position until nightfall covered his retreat to Roseville. The correspondent left the field at 7 p. m. Sunday night, and Chattanooga the noon of Monday. Rosecrans was falling back on Chattanooga, where he was perfectly safe from all Gen. Bragg could do. His lines of communication were perfectly secure, and he bad plenty of ammuni tion and provisions in Chattanooga to stand a month's siege. The result is virtually a defeat to us, as we Have lost tremendously in material, not less than fifty pieces of artillery falling into the hands of the enemy, though Bragg's army receipts for twenty. The Rebel loss in killed and wounded will exceed our own. In killed he has lost double our number. Rosecrans is in no danger, but at the time the correspondent left Chattanooga the danger to Burnside was very imminent. CINCINNATI, Friday, Sept. SS The Gazette publishes full accounts of the bat tles of Saturday and Sunday, this morning. It confirms the general statement by telegraph al ready published, The army was saved frOm de struction by the stubborn defences of Thomas's corps on Sunday. The report concludes : Our losses have been most severe and can scarcely fall short of 1,600 killed encl . :8,000 wounded. Col. Barrett tells me our loss in Ar tillery will not fall short of fifty pieces. Our de66iency in transportation and baggage cannot be estimated. Notwithstanding this, the report says, it was a substantial failure to the enemy, if not a victory to us. They were foiled in the attempt to destroy the army, and suffered in lode of life fully as much as the Army of the Cumber land." The Fifteenth Ohio has but 176 out of 460 effeetives left.
