Editorial Correspondence.
Camp of 8tii Ga. Regiment, near
Rapid Ann, Nov. 11, 1802.
Dear Courier:—The order for tho
3d Brigado to move last Sunday mor
ning was countermanded at about 10
o’clock, and wo are still here, nlthoui-h
yesterday the’ order was again issued-
to paok up and be ready to march at
a m'omcnt’s warning. Tho expecta
tion of a fight lias been realized, but
how general the engagement was not
yet been reported in this catnp. Can
nonading commenced on tho Rappa
hannock last Saturday, and was con
tinued with skirmishing between pick
ets and cavalry forces up to Sunday
night. On Monday mornings Gen. A.
P. and D. II. Hill engaged tho enemy
about eight miles from Culpepper C. U.,
and the fight continued until late in
the afternoon. No particulars have
been received* horo furthor than that
the enemy were driven baek about
threo miles, sustaining a heavy loss
in killed nnd wounded, and three pieces
of artillery. This fight was about
twenty-three miles from our camp, yet
the cannonading was distinctly heard,
nearly all day yestorduy, and, being un*
der orders as wo were, the expectation
every moment, was that wo would go
to the support of our friends then on
gaged. We havo heard no cannona
ding to-day, ami as no orders have
been issued to ho retuly to march, the
fight at tho Rappahannock probably
ended j-ostej-day.
Stirring times are expected, and an
order to ranroh will not bo surprising at
any tiuio. The nu vements of the en
emy will probably control our own, so
it is altogether which way we will
march, even if wo leave here at all, at
any very early day. ’Tis reported that
tho Abolition invaders are ai riving in
largo bodies at Fredericksburg. If this
is so, our army will, probably soon move
back, at least -across tho Rapid Ann,
and perhaps .o Gordonsville. It does
not seem probable that we will remain
here very long.

Dear Salvage:—Thinking that the

But to oliange tlie mood, I have

patient-, gentle sufferers that were ever
afflicted. I really love them. William
Lynoh, of Co. B, Ninth Louisiana Reg
iment, is but seventeen of age, atfl 1ms
been in six battlus. After the Manas
sas fight he had a severe spell of typhoid
fever and obtained an honorable dis
charge. Tho journey home was too
fatiguing for him, and finding a hearty
welcome in the “Soldiers’ Relief,” so
kindly maintained by our ladies, lie
remained to recruit, \yhen tlie fearful
malady surprised him os well as them,
but, by the goodness of God, he will
yet bo spared to servo his country and
liis friends. He is a native of Rapids
Parish, Louisiana—lias a father, a moth
er and sisters, and an only brother in
tho service, lhe bey soldier will yot be
a man, and walk m man among men. If,
by the skillful treatment of our physi
cians, an4 good nursing on tny part,
he shall recover, it will be the proudest
act of my life.

force ns I did that of Mr. Buchanan.
(Loud cheers.) Now, fellow-citizens,
this war has been carried on for between
one and two years, and we are te-day
furtlior off from peace, and from con
quering the South than we were on tho
21st of July, 18G1, when the first battle
of Bull Run was fought.
ggyParson Brownlow lias got himself
into trouble with the editor of-the Chi
cago Times, Who proved that tho Parson
was well paid for making nboliton
speeches, notwithstanding his positive
assertion to the contrary. The Times
pronounced him an “obscene, filthy
blasphemous old vagabound,” but the
Parson replied in a speech next day,
whioh convinced everybody that it was
useless to attempt to find a match for
him in blackguardism. He ovon
brought the editor’s wife in for a share
of his 'vituperation.

Lenoir’s Station, E. T. & Ga. R. R. I
November 13th,. 18G2. j
Dear Con nu; it:—Constant nmroliing
and tho brief leisure afforded us nt
present-, must account for tho irregu
larity of your correspondents recent
communications toyour columns. The
2d brigade passed through Knoxville
on tho 30th ult., and reached this sta
tion, twenty three miles below, on tlie
following dny, finding several brigades
nnd the 3d Gn. Battalion, already en
camped here. On tho 2d inst., the
3d Ga., with Oracle's brigade, were or.
dered back to that dreaded old eyrie,
Cumberland Gap, nnd ranched there
on the 7th. In the monntime efforts
were made to have tho batiulion reliev
ed from dutyat that point, nnd through
the influence of Gen. Stovenson, it was
detached from Col.J Grade’s command,
and ordered to report to Gon. Rains at
nt this placo. They loft tlie Gap on
Sunday morning, mid •arrived here this
ovening.
Tho battalion seems to be a favorite
organization with tho brigade comman
ders, nnd lias been attached to four
different brigades within the last two
months; their popularity is rather un
fortunate for themselves, ns they have
been obliged to undergo over two hun
dred milcs£ of transfer marching in eon-
sequence thereof.
Knoxville would now scarcely be re
cognized by the trayeler of former
days, when Parson Brownlow hold
forth, and when naught occurred t#
disturb tho peaceful inclinations of its
citizens. It is now ono vast military
rendezvous, from whence many of its
former inhabitants lmvo fled, with their
hvres.and pennies, to parts where ;con
script hunters arc never seen' Nearly
every man one meets is an ollloers, nnd
every oilier man is a member of tho
patrol guard, who takes plcnsuro in
stopping one every ten minutes, and
demanding your pass, without which
you are murched to tlie guard house,
About half tho stores nro occupied
by tlie military authorities, nnd the re
maining half nre generally closed;
those that remain open contain limited
stocks of tobacco and apples, which are
sold to the soldiers at highly toinune
rntivo prices. Ono store-keeper has
quite nn assorted stock, considering
tlie blockade, and can accommodate
you with a common folt lint at $25,
and a cotton handkerchief nt $1 25 a
piece; other articles at proportionate
prices. Board only costs $4 00 per
diem, and tho hotels furnish a b.ll of
fare that a mess cook would blush ,at.
Don’t stop in Knoxville until the nai
ls over, if you wish to preserve your
tempar and Fargtnt.
East Tennessco has suffered much
during the war, nud her present condi
lions, in many of tho counties, is de
plorable. Desolation crowns her hill
tops, and devastation has sivept through
her valleys. Famine is gloomily 'stalk
ing too and fro, und many a family
will suffor tho pangs of starvation dur
ing the present winter, unless some
thing is speedily done for their relief.
East Tennessee lias borne a grevious
burden on account of iter disloyal peo

Tho New York Herald’s Warronton

Tears coursed down McClellan’s elns-
sic features, nnd Burnside, with stout
heavy frame, shook liko a sorrowing

McClellan, in his furowoU address
