SB.UJKGH POST: TUESDAY MORNING, t DECEMBER l, 1863 The Dead-Heads Again Mr. Editor : Tf e Dispatch is mistaken when it think? we had the newspaper fraternity in view particularly in oar re marks the other day on Dead Heads. We are well awar e that newspapers more than recompense all the advantages de rived by them from the equivocal “cour tesy” of being placed arnoDg the ‘‘dead heads.” They would, however, naturally feel more independent, and as the public looks to them to be protected from swind ling exhibitions, it would be better, if they “paid their way.” They must feel some constraint for seeming tavors or we would not see every humbug that mans gers impose on the publio praised in the papers, or at leant not condemned as it deserves. We are glad to see that the Dispatch, in common with other respect able editors, would like to be freed from the entire system. They owe it to them selves to reject these petty bribes. We had reference to that indescribable and hetero* list of “scrougers” who infest the healrpjat night, and who do not appear to be either useful or ornamental. It they seemed to enjoy the performance it would not be so bad, but their only pleasure con sists in growling at every little thing that happens that don’t come np to their ideas. As to the disappointment in the front seal that was a little joke of the Post. The only objection to a ‘‘back-seat,’'or even a stand point ’ in the lobby on occasions,is the fact of being crowded by this “Lazaer oui” of the free list. In a “front seat” one escapes from them, for they don’t show themselves so far forward, kept back we presume by some stringent rule made especially for the govern ment of that cu rious and mixed class; certainly thair modesty would not restrain them.

P. MARSHALL, j 87 Wood ftr—C * BY TELEGRAPH, From Gen. Meade’s Army, John in organ In Canada. Xlie Situation at Ohatta New York. Nov. 30.— Tie Philadelphia Enquirer to-day publishes soother report of Gen. Meade’s advaoce, furnished by one of its. correspondents at Verdieaville, a post village iu Orange county, Va., twelve miles from Orange Court House. The dispatch furnishing the above is dated Saturday noon, wheo our cavalry and ar tillery were driving the rebels down the turnpike towards Orange Court House, and were within eight miles of that place. Nothing bat skirmishing had taken place since the army crossed the Rapidan, and our losses were slight and confined to the cavalry. The rebels make bat feeble re sistance, and fall back whenever they are charged. It is departed that the rebel force at Fredericksburg has retreated towards Richmond. Thus we hold the road that runs direct from Frederic ksbnrg to GordonBville. Justice, We have succeeded in cutting the rebel left from the main army and it is hoped that many are already taken prisoners. The rains have fallen to a great extent and will delay them but a very few hours. Washington. November 30.—The Star says ;informaiion Gen. Burnside as late |as Wednesday uight, .the 25th, is to the rff-jet that he was then amply provis ioned for his needs and fully able to resist the enemy until aid could reach him from Grant. At that time Wednesday night Longstreet was yet before Knoxville. An order sent to him by Bragg to abandon the siege and rejoin him, had not then rea :hed Longstreet. Doubtless Grant has now cut a road by which Longstreet mußt go to effect a junction with Bragg, and as the Virginia and Tennessee railroad lead ing iuto the former State ib believed to be in so crippled u condition that Longstreet can neither use it for supplies or as a means of escape, li ifl thought he will make a desperate effort to take Knoxville, in order to put himself in possession of sufficient supplies to afford his army sub sistence while he moves away. Army of the Potomac, November 2d. 10 p. m. —The enemy has apparently fallen back. There is some skirmishing, but no cannonading. The same correspondent says that on Saturday morning our whole army was in position and ready for work. Everybody seems to be in good spirit*. The country hereabouts ia one of the worst conceivable for field operations. It is a wilderness oi a small growth of wood over nine tenth of the whole surface of the country. So dense are these that it is impossible to penetrate them except where paths are rut. Through Romp mistake the third corps did not get into position as soon as expected, which gave the enemy tt-rnporarily some advantage. The 3d. however, promptly met the emergency and captured between 700 and 900 ot the enemy. Some 300 prisoners were taken at other parts ot the line. Washington. Nov. 30.—A refugee from Richmond, rec-otiv arrived within our lines, aod now corfioed in Carroll prison here, furnishes tbe following estimate of the present force o! Lee's army : Ewell’s corps, now commanded by Gen. Early, 20.000 to 21.00<i infantry and six batteries of artillery: A. E. Hills corps, 20,000 in fantry and five batteries of artillery ; Smart's cavalry, H 000 cp.ralry and 20 batteries ot Hying artillery, making in all 41,000 infantry, S 'XXi cavalry, and 78 cannon, provided the batteries are all complete. He also confirms the death of the rebel Gen. Posey, and the statement that Ewell has retired to Charlottesville on account of ill health. New York. Nov. 30. A Herald dis patch, dated Rippahannock Station, Nov. 29, 9:30 p m., says:—lt is understood that Gen. Meade, in his present move ment. is left to exercise his own discre tion. and he bag declared it to be his pur pose to strike at the most vital point in the Southern Confederacy, whenever in his jadgmeni, tha' may be. His supplies, ration?, and forage will not hp exhausted until after the 10-. h of December, and before that period he can make a heavy reccnnoisaance most damaging in its con sequences upon the enemy. Since Gen. Meade has tbe supplies of bis army with his command, there is no apprehension of danger from a flank movement to cat off the URU&I base of supplies. .ANTHONY MITER Washington, Nov. SO. —A messenger from the army thinks that a general en gagement between Lee and Meade could not have been delayed mnch beyond yes terday afternoon, while he is quite confi dent that the rapid heavy firing which he heard till nightfall on his way up, was the result of a grand engagement. It was too heavy and continuous for skirmishing. The rebel lines Btretch jast in front of Orange Court House, but the disposition of oox various corps is spoken of as excel lent, and culcnlated to make the enemy fight or retreat beyond Orange Court House. PITTSBURGH. Chattanooga, November 80.—There has been no fighting in southern Georgia for the past two days. Our troops hold the country as far as Ringgold and Cleve land. The enemy is below Tunnel Hill. The campaign is probaby ended. There is no news from Burnside at headquar ters The siege of Knoxville is no doubt raised even now, and the rebel forces in East Teunessee can only escape by mira cle or miraculous fighting The frnits of the fight.iog 6002 prisoners, 48 pieces of artillery, 7000 stand of arms and stores. Onr casnalities will not exceed 4000. Price 76 Cents, Price 75 Cents, Philadelphia, Nov. 80.—A special to the Bulletin from Cincinnati says: R. A. Crawford, who left Knoxville on Wednes day night, has arrived at Cumberland Gap. The lower portion of Knoxville has been burned inclnding the East Ten nessee and Georgia railroad depot. It is supposed that these houses were occupied by rebel sharpshooters and were destroy ed by our shells. Longstreet received orders to report on the 26th, and it is re ported that he has fallen back. He will >e too late to make a junction with Bragg without fighting for it. Philadelphia, Nov. 80.—A long dis patch from Cincinnati is published here giving details of General Grant’s opera tions, commencing on Monday of lest week, but containing nothing later that General Meigs’ account. Our losses are said officially not to exceed 8,200. Washington, November 80.— A Times Washington dispatch says :—The railroad between the Rapid&n and the R&ppahan • nock is being destroyed by onr forces, and the iron sent to Alexandria. Up to’thift morning tbe rails are removed to within half a mile South of the Rappahannock. Toronto, C. W m Nov. 80.—John Mor gan arrived {here to-day via. the Great Western Railroad.

Queenstown on the 22d, passed Cape Race at noon The Times says: America has rapidlylsettled into its normal state of war, and an early peace looks hopeless. Argumentsin the Alex andria case are still progressing. The Attorney. General concluded his argument in favor of a new trial on Saturday with a warm eulogitun upon the decisions in Americau ccarta, calling them an honor to jarispradenc« in that country. Successful experiments with a great Armstrong gun throwing shot and shell weighing 550 pounds, had been made. The English parliament stands pro rogued to the 13th .of January. The Eng lish answers to Napoleon on the proposed Congress question has been delivered. It does not announce unqualified accept ance, but seeks for information as to the precise points proposed for discussion, and further communication between the two governments may be expected. The Papal government assents and the Rus sian reply was expected on the 21sL It is believed that the principal replies will all seek for information as to the pro- 1 gramme. The Paris correspondent of the London Times asserts a belief that the proposed meeting of Congress loses ground daily. The Times contiriuca, editorially, to show the abortiveneas of the scheme. A bill has been submitted to the French Government for supplementary rights of 91,000,000 franca, to meet the Mexican expenses. The Moniteur and other French jour nals were treating under instruction on the Polish affairs in milder tones. The Moniteur now only publishes the Russian version of events. There has been a grsat fire in Portugal. The municipal chambers and numerous buildings were destroyed. There was sev eral lives lost. Sweden ia making preparations for war. The accounts from Japan are unfavora ble. Gastuma and other princes are pre paring for war. Washington, Nov. 30.— The Republican Ba y B j JJpio Ihia day there has been much fighting Dy regiments, brigades, divisions and corps, but there has not been a great battle; and while we have been worsted temporarily in skirmishing, the truth is that Lee has been defeated and bus been gradually falling back, and from present appearauces will attempt to make a grand stand at Hanover Junction or Gordons ville. Baltimore, Nov. 30. —The American says: We have opened a correspondence with Commissioner Ould which may probably lead to the establishment of some legitimate arrangement for the care and sustenance of our unfortunate prison ers at Richmond, until such times as an exchange may be effected, .with the con viction tbnt there i.i neither a sufficiency of food at Richmond tor the people or the prisoners.
