Brio. Gen. Janes E. Rains.—Who fell at
the battle of Murfreesboro’, waa a native
Tennesseean, reared and educated in Nash
ville. When this war began he was, and
had been for some years, Commonwealth’s
Attorney in that city. Prior to this he was
an !Editor of the Republican Banner, in
which capacity ho was the successor of Gen.
Zollicoffer. When the war began he waa
elected Chptain, and subsequently, unani
mously chosen Colonel of the 11th Tennes
see Regiment, afterwards attached to the
Brigade of Gen. Zollicoffer. He led his
Regiment in the battles at Wild Cat and
Barboursville.
Subsequently he was ordered to Cumber
land Gap, a fortrea (which he held against
many assaults of the Federal forces. He
wa3 here made a Brigadier and served
through the Kentucky campaign under
the immediate command of Division Gen-*
eral Stevenson of Lieut. Gen. Smith's Corps.
He has fallen at Murfreesboro’ in the
immediate vicinity of the home of his
childhood, which he sought to reclaim
from those who would enslave the South.
Gen. Rains was not more than 33 years
of age.—Knoxville Register.
The Herald on President Davis’ Butler
Proclamation.— The New York Herald,
of the 29th, contains a long editorial in
relation to Banks’ expedition, in which
we find the following paragraph :
“The flagship of his (Banks’) expedition
arrived at New Orleans on the 14th instant;
his general order announcing his assump
tion of the supreme command of the de
partment (including the State of Texas)
was issued on the 16th; and, in this con
nection, it is somewhat remarkable that the
terrible proclamation of Jeff. Davis against
Gen. Butler and his sub rdinate officers
was not issued until tbe 23d, at which time
Davis was doubtless fully informed of all
the movements at New Orleans which we
publish to-day. We conclude that Davis
thought it a good opportunity for a parting
broadside at Butler, in connection with a
wurning to President Lincoln in the mat
ter of his expected first of January eman«
ci pation manifesto.”
Death or the Chief Rabbi or Jerusalem.
The Jewish Messenger contains a letter,
written from Jerusalem, November 7th,
announcing tbe death of the Chief Rabbi
of Palestine. The following is an extract:
On the night of Tuesday, the Chief Rabbi
of the Perushim received a call from Heav
en, and he responded. “Behold, here am
I.” You, reverend sir, who have known
and corresponded with him for so many
years, you can partially enter into the
feeling which pervades all the communities
in the Holy Land at the loss they have
sustained, but you can have no idea of the
gloom his death has cast over Palestine.
“He judged Israel” thirty-five years.—
During the whole of that period he devoted
himself to the study of the law and the
practice of gqod deeds.

EXPRESSLY FOR THE SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY.
Chattanooga, Jan. 9,—The enemy now
holds. Murfreesboro’, rumor to the contrary
notwithstanding, our pickets being within
three miles of them; and the Confederate
forces occupying the country this side. Gen.
Bragg will move hi8. Head Quarters from Win
chester to Tullahonia Gen. Bragg now esti
mates our loss at nine thousand—which in
cluded wounded left at Murfreesboro’. Gen.
Hanson, of Ky., wounded on the 2d Jan, ex
pired at Murfreesboro since the evacuation.
FBOM OPR SEC0KD EDITION OF YESTERDAY
Chattanooga, Jan. 8.—Thero is a rumor
that Hosencranz’ army have retired to Nash
ville, leaving a small garrison at Murfrees
boro. Qen’l Bragg’s Headquarters are in
Winchester. He will make a defense between
there and Shelbyville, but it is not probable
that the abolition army will be ready for of
fensive operations under a month. Oar ar
my also needs time for rest and reorganiza
tion. ',
Morgan and Forrest, with their oommands,
have rejoined the main army, after most suc
cessful expeditions in West Tennessee and
Kentuoky.
Our troops, as a general thing, approve of
Gen. Bragg’s course in falling back. They
were too much exhausted to continue longer
on the field.
Mobile, Jan’y 8.—The New Orleans jDelta
of tbe 6th contains the following : About 2
o’clock on New Year’s morning, four rebel
gunboats came down Buffalo Bayou into.
Galveston Bay and ran along side of tbe
steamer Harriet Lane, one on each side. Tbe
Texas Sharp-shooters then commenced an as
sault on her and soon succeeded in killing
all the gunners and Capt. Wain wrighl, hex
commander. The assailants then boarded
her, and after a desperate struggle, effected
her capture. The rebel gunboats were lined
and fortified with cotton, after the mannor
of the boats in New Orleans, known as tbe
Montgomery Fleet.” The , under
command of Commodore Kenshaw, determin
ed not to betaken, and, after consulting the
officers and men, all agreeing, they blew her
up, with all on board, inducing the com
mander, only eight escaping. The.ballance
of the (Yankee) fleet and one transport es
caped. Two coal boats at tbe wharf, together
with two companies of the second Massachu
setts regiment, were captured. A Federal
vessel was placed outside of the harbor to
watch the Harriet Lane, and prevent the
Confederates sending her to sea.
Richmond, Jan’y 8.—The N. Y. Herald oi
the 6th has an editorial on the prospects of
intervention in American affairs, by Napo
leon. It says the Frenoh Emperor will ad
dress another circular to the Courts of En
gland and Russia, urging immediate in ter-'
vention; and the prospect is, that these pow
ers, will accede to his demand; otherwise,
this wil be the prelude to recognition by
France alone. Napoleon will say: “lap
pealed to you twice to act with me, but you
refused. My necessities will admit no fur
ther delay, and I recognise the Southern
Confederacy. My people are starving. I
must have cotton.”.
Tho Herald intimates that a powerful Frenoh
fleet of plated frigates, now in Amerioan wa
ters, are to act as emergencies may dictate in
case of the recognition of the Davis Govern
ment. The emancipation proclamation is an
other inducement to Napoleon to inter
fere, as all chances for cotton are at an end
until that question is settled. He will pre
tend that fearful crimes and horrors will flow
opt of the making of such a decree through
out the North, and that humanity demands
interference. France and England both sec
that their supplies of cotton willbe cat short
if tho slaves are freed.
The French Minister at Washington, it is
said, openly states that during this month
his government will mediate in favor of the
South. This asstrt.on of M Meroie, if true,
puts an end to all doubt upon the question.
The Herald adds: “We must prepare to
sustain at all perils, the integi .iy of the Re
public **• j
The Tribune of the 5th contains s dispatch
from Cairo, announcing a Federal success at
Vicksburg. Its Holly Springs correspondent
estimates the loss by Van Dora’s raid upon
that plpce at six millions.
The Federal gunboat Sagamore captured off
the eastern coast of Florida, tho British
schooners Francis, George and Agnes Abita.
Selected Telegrams.
Richmond, Jan. 6.—A dispatch published
in Richmond from Gen. Bragg’s Adjutant
Genaral that oar forces have retired from
Murfreesboro, causes a depression of spirits
It is feared that Bragg’s forces were not
sufficient te follow up their brilliant sucecss
of December 31st.
The Richmond papers state it is certain
that Bosenoranz’ army greatly outnumbers
Bragg’s.
It is probable that our forces have fallen
back.to Shelbyville, and that Murfreesboro
is in posssession of the Federals*
Gen. Bragg has secured the prisoners,
arms and artillery captured Deo. 31st.
[second dispatch.]
The Chicago (I1L) Times justifies President
Davis’ retaliation proclamation.
The Philadelphia Inquirer’s dispatches of
the 2d, say that telegraphic communication
with Nashville was destroyed.
Advices from Murfreesboro state that the
Federals were advancing and the rebels fall
ing back across Stone river.
The rebels were terribly repnlstid on the
left
The rebel army at Richmond was forward

ville.
Gen. Rosenoranz’s dispatches saj’ that the
rebels are whipped decidedly, and that the
Federals are at Christian’s nine miles from
Murfreesboro. '
The dispatch says that the loss of Federal
officers is heart-rending.
On the 2d inst., Rosencranz, wifh the 4th
Regiment United States Cavalry, attacked
Wheeler’s Cavaliy, cut them to pieces aud
routed them.
A dispatch dated Cairo, 111., Jan’y 3d,
gays that but one gunboat at Vicksburg, the
Benton, engaged the fortificatiomi, but the
conmander and several of the crew were kill
ed. Banks’ forces and Farragut’s Beet were
expected, but did not arrive.
Grant claims that Forrest and Tan Dorn
are badly whipped, with a loss of several
pieces of artillery and many prison ers. Th e
Rebel Colonel Napier was killed, and CoL
Deshay captured.

Vague rumors were afloat that France
would send written note to England and
Russia showing the necessity of peaceful in
tervention in America.
The London Times believes, from the lib
erality shown toward Lancashire, that a
clearer perception of the part displayed by
England prevails.
Mr. Schoolfield, M. P., in a recent speech,
asserted the right of tho South to secede,
and advocated its recognition.
Mr. Bright eulogised the cause of the North
and predicted the failure of the rebellion.
Nearly all of the London presses condemn
Mr- Bright’s speech.
A loan is spoken of in France to relieve
the distress prevailing there.
The London Times disapproves of Gen.
Halleck’s official report.
