Nearly two weeka hare elapsed aince we , . , i ctaMinwtKC. ttic paartajfe- at tne . stream was effected at miclnigbt. TUc.hoir full moon rode grandly aero I lie heavens in the miot of cumuli of white clouds. Thonglfol soldiers looked np sadly on iU pale face, during that night of retreat- They felt that the death-'- struggle f.r Ai'siiM should be made yon lite north bank of the Unattahoochee. I bare aeen the yel low nroon -beams giro an aonalnra) luitrr to the pal lor of death, and watched their shadbws 'reflected - in the lueterleae eyes of the fallen. Rrea thou sad " were tbe laces of oar soldiers. Tlje night' on wt kh we crossed tbe rirer, so silently, mo asd'r, will not soon be forgotten by the Army of Ten nessee. Tlie pontoons were covered with leare and sand to render noiseless the tread of aroted legions, and to silence the heary rambling' of ar tillery and wagon trains. Our moTbtnert was' as silent and sad, as the ceaseless ma'ch of him, whom fancy paints armed with the sickle, and witb vacant scull and flesbleaa har.. reaping the harrest of dead humanity. . When tbe river was between us snd the neinr. our forces wera assigned position, protecting tlie threatened ct, on its novtbern and eastern ap . proacbes. Cheatham's Dirision held the crossing of tbe Geirgia railros j, on the south side of the bnrned bridge. Bsie'a was assigned a position north of tbe brid&e, while the great body of our troops noved along-tbe banks of Peachtree creek, ia tbe direction of Decatur, six miles north east from Atlar ia, on tne railroad leading to Augusta. . Daring the movements of which I can now give only r. general outline, many collisions occurred iriLi the enemy. In one of these the Georgia Jtt troops, tbe first of Gov. Brown's late levies, were assailed. So body of untrained soldiers ever eontfuctedthemselres with greater cotrng, none bare displayed a more commendable spirit.' Atone time, when enfiladed, in-their hurriedly constructed earthworks, they maintained a posi tion trom which experienced soldiers would cer tainly bare fled. They, on the contrary, evoked ncoaragement and hope from tbe usual prelude "-aster. Tbey believed the enenij'a line bro ken, anu jjy had pnctrated hiscenter. They fired to Hat "ad left, and finally re puaaa tneir asi.o Tfie were nurpriat Bttle, rben ordered to Their ron- intr i airy brigade, which I - T ' . . . J ' tpai, aeai to their support, and whien snuuemy retreated, knows no boonds. On the 20th, our line battle was chun ged. It is not prudent eve now, while the enemy con fronts ns on ev X band, to define the movements of corps or- divisions. Ttffe enemy had already crossed Chattahoochee, eight or ten miles north of th railroad- . Fowr Army corps were on the north of reach tree creer, wnicir runs irom Aorth-east to the'Tiver, within firr six miles of Atlanta. On tbe 21, re-crossed the creek with Tyler's brigade; moving sonth towards Atlanta, All the bridges were burned.' Wo again estab lished our lines ar.d awaited the advance of Sher man's columns. On the.banka of the creek, at many points along its tortuous course, the hills beyone commanded tbose.on the south side of the narrow stream. . At such places tbe enemj spee dily effected a crossing. The firing of our pickets was continuous. Two years ago, the events of that afternoon would bare been described as battle-scenes in interminable letters. On tbe afternoon of Wednesday, Hardee's corps j advanced on tho enemy. At three o'clock the fir ing was general along our whole line. While Walker's and Cheatham's divisions, an a part of Stewart's corps, advanced on tbo enemy's f runt. Bate's division was wheeled on its left, and drove the enemy in its front across the creek. Walker on Bate's left met, it seeuts, with more obstinate re sistance. In tbe advanjfe made hy bis division Brig. Gen. Stevens was . severely if not mortally wounded. Cheatham's division, commanded by Brig. Gen. Manej, met with the same success, dri ving the enemy into their works. Stewart took . possession of tbe front line of the enemy's works, and captured many prisoners but could act hold tbamtbeeaase of tbe strength of their second line. - His loss was heavy, especially in Featberston'abrl-. gad. Bate who was on oar right, swang a round en bis left and movid steadily forward till nightfall, when be was ordered to bait, which he did when be bad gained the Baekhead road, the enemy hav ing been repulsed at all points and subjected to heary losses, oar troops were drawn oft" to their en trenchments. Tbe divisions of Bate and Cheat bam, after a few hours .rest, were moved on the next morning at 4 'clock, four or five miles to the right. Bate returned the same erendg to bis original po sition and at night, with Hardee's corps, marched miles, and on next mornit j(Friday) turned tbe enemy's -left. In the new line of battle, east of At lanta, Bate's division occupied tLe extreme, right Wlkerwas on Bate's left. With this division your correspondent went np9U Ike field. Tbe po sitlon assigned to Uste, as tba llae moved fprwarj, was in many res pec is anfortnaat. Lie had not ad vanced through the dense thicket Interspersed with narrow morasses and overgrows with briars, more than a mile and a half, when oar asoats and pick ets anneuneed tba presence of. the enemy.

" - Let no one hereafter doubt tba confidence of tbe Army of Tsnnessee in its iw eommander-in-chief, nor qacstin its ultimate success. Whilo these events warn transpiring OB tb left Sank of Sher man's arm', not far from Iweutar, south-east from Atlanta, Stewart, eotamaeding Polk's corps, an Cheatham, that of Hood, aiaaUed the eaemy oa tb north of tb city. They 4 rove tb Federals before them . with almost nnvar f ing success. At many points along the line oar troops passed over their earthwerks. Many gsas and not lea shaa .one thousand prisoners wera eaptared. " Coal dene, was restored throughout our army; tbe removal of Johnston wail no longer questioned as a measure of publie aeearsity ; tbe spirit of wtr soldiers .was re invigorated! j vI cannot recount tbe events of tbe day w.bich transpired on Friday along Stewart's aad Cheat ham's liaett. With Hardee's corps, I was only cognisant of its action, and then only of move ments on the right of his lines aad never before was I eonscious of the difficulty incident to tbe compre hension the movements of armies on tbe battle field. . No newspaper correspondent, without access to information derived from field ofllcers.can give a clear aad comprehensive account .of movements so involved that even general officers do not. pretend to comprehend their purpose. If to-day I have done injustice to any, where all acted 90 well and gallantly, on to-morrow the wrong ahelt be re- Pir? 'jfTTUidfcst result the chief subject of self- grattdation found in tba eveats of the past two weeks, eossista ta tb reetonttioa of confidence which now pervades oar army. There Is not a ol dier who does not deem his own corps, even bis own division, iuvinnibVs. There is no toil or fatigue which they do not anderjra " f enJa- rance atwd hMrtaoss which almost passes eompre. bentioa and! taxes credulity. Tbey dig trenches and throw up breastworks in the morning, miles in length, only to abandon them in the evening."'. Be fore the snn rises they are again entrenched. I may state, en jxtiuaiU. while Geo. Heed deems the cap ture of 1 and color the sole evidences of victo ry, thct on Friday we captured more spades than were ever soon la the Confederate States. If our army would dig Its way to Dalton .as 8herman has perforated the country to Atlanta, the means are now in our bands. 0a ths same 4ay Friday, Gen. WbeelerciitFnred three hv.ndred wagons at Decatur ; On SUunlay, 24th, everything was quiet. "Oar stragglers vrere gathered in, our own and tb fallen yankecs wera buried, and tbe" spoilt collected from the two bstdefields, vhich were seven or eight miles apart. Tbo enemy still threw shells into the city, most of thn falling ia the vicinity of tbe railway station. Dayand night tbe cannonading continued There was jao cessation on Sunday. A teamster and an aged woman, too poor to 'escape from the be leagnred city, haw been killed, aad one child had its leg shattered. 'A shell has penetrated tbe roof of Dr. Ouintard'j eharcb, another each of the dreg tores neartMt the raOway, bat n material injury has .bee n done. . rj Ksant cowmos or arraiss. DecaUnr is now ia oar possession. Naar that vil lage, ths enemy's earthwortks begin and extend amend the city on tbe north ndwst. On.Su,nday night they made a vigorous effort to secure st strong hold near our lloes on the west-of tb city, bat were foiled by tiie gallant Texan.'

Thu whole mass of the Confederate army, kept' well in hand, and played altogether like the pieces on a vast chess board, has been :t at work to cru-h those Generals in detail.

' In the buttle of the 12th the advantages of tbis position were well seen. The losses of the Confederates are supposed to have borni no comparison with thoso nf tbe army of Grant.
