Wednesday Noon, Feb. 10. Thero is a line of couriers from Romo to Lebanon, through whom regujar communication is kept up. The ene< my still occupy Sand Mountain and a portion of Wills Valloy, having made ne change of position during the two days preceding yesterday. The object of the expedition probably is to procure forage. A Ge*d Chance for New Cavalry Companies. Thero are several cavalry companies in this section of the .StpJo, made up without authority from the Secretary of War, and it is almost impossible f-vr them to get the authority now. But Capt Scott has authority to organize a Regiment, and a few more of these componies can get into his command. See advertisemon t. Impressing Free Negroes. Jt seems that free men of color have got td eome in and take a small part in the relief of the fibuntry ns team, sters, laborers] &c. Higginbottom and Billy Barrett, the barber, were enrolled by Capt. Oabbett, for service in the Nitre Bureau Department. These “gemmen of color" have made quite snug little fortunes sinoe the war com< monced, and it is no more titan right, that they should do something for the government that protects them. Lt. Wm. A. Rosbu.l, of the Cherokee Artillery arrived at home yesterday. For the past five or six months ho has been acting. Adjutant of the Post at Meridian, Mississippi. He will soon rojom his old Battery'.- Gen. John H. Morgan’s Command, it is rumored, are to rendezvous at this place, and that the distinguished officer himself is expected in Rome to-day. We have no moans of determining the truth of the report. Home-made Hats tor Ladies.—Wo were shown, yesterday, says the Atlan ta Register, a beautiful specimen of home-made hats for ladies, manufactus red by a young lady from Floyd county, in this State. Thcso hats were, made of cotton, in the following manner: The “warp” is drawn in single-sleighed and cotton rolls of any color desired, it is then., carded, to make it smooth, which gives it the appearance of a soft ftir hat. Wo think our -lady readers will do well to give this mode of mak ing their own hats, a fair trial. J&'It is now thought that Sherman’s designs are aimed at Geo. Polk, and not directod against Mobile. Wo have supposed that the Yankees intended to pi-event the advance of auy part of •ur forces into West Tennessee. *0“Boast Butler gobbled up a lot of Jews,and others, who left Richmond with jewels and gold, to escapo con eieription. The fugitives-loat everything Md .the Beast pocketed the spoils. Good 1 Served them right. Gen.- Pickett'lias fallen back from Kewhern, N. C. The place war too •trong to render anassault practicable. tivo from this District,. Judge Wright was in Richmond but a few days. It seems that he just remained there long enough to introduce these lteso lutions, and, perhaps draw liis pay. and" then left. We would have been more pleased had he not gone to Rich mond this session at all. # The Examiner pronounces the pre- amble and resolutions of Mr. Wright extraordinary,” and well may that paper so pronounce them. But after all, says the Atlanta Intelligencer, they are only Mr. Wright’s resolutions, and we trust will be permitted so to remain, receiving no endorsement in the Con federate Congress from any member thereof. The time has passed for the Confederate Government, or its Con. gross to be making overtures to the Lincoln government for peace; to sue to it for any faVor; to humble and dis grace itself by supplications or over tures of any sort, to the bloody despo tUm which now governs the. .North'. Tho excuse upon the face of Mr Wright’s resolutions, why overtures should be made to tho United States through their Government at Wash ington by the Conicderate States, that the latter “ma/ stand justified in the sight of tho conservative men of the North of all parties, anil that tlijj world may know which of the two governments it is that urges, on a war unparalleled for the fierceness of tlje conflict, and intensifying into a see 'tional hatred unsurpassed in the annals of mankirid.” Poor excuse this! In the -judgment of “conservative mqn” at the North, by which tec mean only those wlio arc friendly to the South, and who would bo willing with peace to. recognize Southern Indopondenco, we stand already justified; and as for “the world,” it already knows which of the “two governments”'it is that is urging on this horribleand unnaturally brutal war. It does not- require any such declaration on the part of Con- gross, as is proposed by Mr. Wright, at this time, to satisfy either Northern “Conservatives” or the “world” which of the "two governments” is the re sponsible party for the war, its horrors, or its continuance; and wo regret ex ceedingly. that ho could render no bet ter apology for the introduction of his preamble and resolutions into Congress than ho has done. But we object not only to Mr. Wright’s apology for the introduction of his pre amble and resolutions, hut denounce the object ho seems desirous to attain. First, ho proposes to ascertain whether the commission he- would raise, “can not agrefi upon the recognition of the Con federate States of America;” and, second, in the event, of Buch recognition, whether thoy cannpt agreo upon the formation of a now government, found ed upon the eqaality and sovereignty of the Stales.” And Was it for to, that so' much blood has been spilled, bo much of Southern territory devastated?. First, to have our independence recognized, tor, to pat him upon the shoulder and say, “Go it, Calonel,” “Go it, Bob,”'&c, Our informant states that the conduc tor had him arrested, and got some offi cer to perfer Charges. He is being tried now by a couirt in Savannah. Telegraphic; to bo in largo fojco landed apd was re portod advancing Saturday'night. S4NGE/C.

TnnASHER, ,ln the Clerk’s offioo of the District Court of tho Confcderato States forth© Northern District of Georgia. and, second, to go back to Abolitlondom, and become again one Government, one people ? What a consummation 1 If, however, this unity, this “now Government” cannot be formod, their Mr. Wriglit proposes, thirdly, that the commission from the “two Govern ments” sha\l ascertain “whether they cannot agree upon treaties offensive, defensive, and commercial 1” Away with all such folly 1 It is not “in this humor” that our enemy mast be “wooed ;” it is not “in this humor’* that our independence is to be. “won.” It is not “in"this humor” that wo can preserve our l>»nor, or avenge the thousands who have fallen that the South might be froed from bondage to the North. This proposition for “re- construction,” for it is nothing else in our judgment, wo trust, will receive no consideration at all in Congress. It is “more in sorrow than in anger” that we have notioed it. Hailing, howover, from our own State, as Mr. Wright does, we have felt it our duty thus to notico, and thus to denounce it. Special to the Rebel. Dai.ton, Feb. 9.—It.has been oscer, tamed that the enemy’s force that late* ly visited Lebanon, Ala., consisted of a division of Infantry and a brigade or Cavalry. The enemy are pushing forward troops from Chattanooga towards Clevp* lend, probably to hold the road. v Official dispntohes received last night state that the enemy.enterod Jackson; Miss., with a column of 20,000. SrARTA. Richmond, Feb. 7.—The information from belovy it meagl-e and conflicting. The forcoof the enemy is estimated at about five regiments. Ono report isthat they were repulsed, and another that they crossed the Chickahoriiiuy near White Oak swatnp. Ntf, apprehension exists here of their ’Turiher approach. The enemy’s movement is behoved to be a raid for tho destruction of proper ty or a diversion to draw attention from movement elsewhere. Morristown, Feb. 6,—Private Geo. Smith, Company A, 43d Alabama, was shot to-day for desertion. Major Gilmer’s brigade made a dash upon the enemy’s outposts on Thursday and captured eleven and killed eight. Trains now run to this point. Richmond, Jan.7.—Additional North ern News has been received. The Fed eral House passed a bill reviving the grade of lieutenant generals, and re commended Gen. Grant for tho posi tion . James B. Clay died l-ecoHtly in Cana da, A New Orlenns letter, dated January 26th, says: All parlies in this city de clare Mobile is nbout being attacked by Farragut on water and the trcAms un der Banks on land. A letter says the Florida lias chul • lenged tho Kearsage to a fair fight, and tho latte,- having accepted, they intend to go a few miles 6ut to sea and settle their difference at the‘cannon’s range. The Alabama has destroyed the Yan kee Bhip Contest, in the straits of Sun day. The vessel and cargo wore valued at one million, o’f dollars. Richmond, Feb. 7.—It is reported that the Yankees are advancing in consid erable force toward tho city, from the peninsula. Heavy firing was heard this' morning in tho direction of Bottom’s bridge, but no particulars have been re ceived. Charleston, Feb. 7.—The enemy have ceased firing on the city, but continue working on their batteries and hauling ammunition. Nothing else of interest. Northern Reports from Chattailooga. Chattanooga, Jan. 23.JL864. Trains are running,regularly between Nashville and Chattapoogft. Col. McCollum has. arrived here with 1,000 mechanics and laborers, and tbo work of rebuilding the railroad to Knoxville will bo commenced at once. Supplies mo accumulating, and quar termasters commenced issuing full ra tions to'the soldiers to-day. A large number of veteran 1 volun teers havo.left the nrmyj but the bal ance of power is maintained ,hy raw re cruits froth the North and deserters from the South. Seven hundred recruits came down this morning. On Monday Inst one hundred and fifty rebels deserted, and to day a squad of fourteen rebels. The rebel army which holds the po, sitlon at Dal-ton is belleVed to number 30,000 men.. The Tt-nnossee and Ken tucky troeps are qampod iu-tho center under a guard. It is positively known that tho rebel soldiers are killing their best mules for subsistence. Gen. Grant came to the front, this morning. Gen. Judah has left for KnoxvilLo to resume command of his old division, tbo twenty-third corps. Surgeon H. S. Hewelt has heen as signed by Gen.

Toombs. - From an officer of Col. Toombs’ regi mont, who read the charges upon which Col. T, was recently arrested in Savah nah, we learn, soys the Atlanta Confed eracy, the following foots: While his regiment was en route from Augusta to Savannah, Col. Toombs had fires made in tho box cars—having pre viously had dirt thrown upon the floors, so that his men might warm themselves, ,the weather being very cold. This.it is said, the conductor objected • to, and ordered the engineer to “cut oil’” the boxes and leave them. As o natural consequence, Col. T, objected to this, and informed the conductor, in rather harsh terms, that ho should carry tho cai ... * . Tho charge, for which he is now be ltig tried, it, “conduct unbecoming an officer nnd gemutman.” The “specifi cations”—two in nw,her—are for using abusive end disrespecti.-i language to tbo conductor; the second '-.-wallowing his men, while speaking to tho Orange C. II., Feb. 7.—The enemy crossed in large force on Saturday, at Morton’s^prd, but after » sharp con test, wero repulsed by Gen, Ed.* John son’s Division, and driven across the river and pursued. Oui troops returned this morning. This morning they at tempted to cross at Barnett’s Ford, but werq repulsod'by Gen. Isoftles’ North Carolina Brigade, and Gen. Lomax’B Cavalry Brigade. Tho casualties slight. The enemy have returned. Richmond, Feb. 7.—The'latest report from below last night represented that the yankeo force which appeared at Bottom’s bridge bad fallen back to within nine miles of Talley sville, where they were reinforced by several addi. tional regiments ‘of infantry and caval ry. The situation was unchanged this morning, but another demonstration by tho enemy was expected to-day. Lieut. Gen. Hood, has command of the Confederate forces on file line of tho Chioaliominy. Richmond, Fob. 8.—Senii-official in formation hns been received of tho ar rival of l$i gunboats and transports at Jacksonville, Fla., tho enemy presumed Morristown, Feb. 8.—Reports ': fro# Knoxville from various BOdrces repre sent the .garrison there in a state of great suffering from small nox, of Which 700.cases hove died, and soorcity of ra tions.

The train from Strawberry plains ran to within fifteen miles of Knoxville yes-- terddy. • Richmond, Feb. 8.—John A. Wilson, of Texas, member ot the House of Hep 1 resontatives, dropped dead in a moment on yesterday morning while apparent ly in good health. No business trans acted in either brnrioh of Congress ex cept the announcement of his death and passage of appropriate resolutions. Eulogies wore pronounced in the Sen ate by Wigfall, of Texas, Henry,, of Tennessee, Phelan, of Mississippi, arid in tho House by Smith, of North Caro lina, McRae, of Mississippi, Hawkins uud Jones, of Tennessee. Richmond, Feb. 8.—Gov. Gamble, of Mississippi, died on the 2d. George R Riddle, a strong Unionists, succeeds Bayard, ol' Delawavo, in the Yankoo Senate. - The latest information from below-, says tho Yankees have taken’the back track for Williamsburg. The move ment Was. probably intended as a, recon- noisnnee. The impression prevails hero that the next campaign will commence at an early day. Aotivo hostilities on the Rapidan will probably ho delayed until the recovery of Monde, who; at last accounts was convalescent at home, in Pennsylvania. Tho weather continues favorable for •military movements. Charleston, Feb. 8.—The enomy re newed the*iire upon-the city lost night. Seven shells were fired up* to 9 o’clock this morning. A monitor made its ap pearance in the harbor to-day. The position of the fleet, in other respects unchanged. .The enemy are engaged in mounting several gting at Wagner, bearing upon tho channel. An official dispatoh from Lake City, Fla., the 3th, reports eighteen of the enemy’s gunboats and transports as having arrived at Jacksonville. It is believed a largo force liavo landed, and were said (o be advancing last night. Selma, Feb. 8.—The Reporter has in formation of a fight between Lowe’s squadron and the enemy, near Leba non, Alabama, on Wednesday last.— The enemy 9,000 strong subsequently evacuated Lebanon, and retired towards the Tennessee l-ivcr. ; Our forces nuus. bered four hundred only. The Repor ter's correspondent says tho Yankees’ force at Larkiir’s Ferry, numbers at loftst 40,000. The Front.

A considerable force of Yankees marched out of Chattanooga and form ed in line of battle at tho foot) of Mis. sionary Ridge on this side, yesterday, and a reported force of 10,000 had marched within six miles of'.Cleveland The supposed object of this demonstrae tion was to prevent an a!tack from this quarter on tho Yankee foroes reported and bolioved to bejeaving Knoxville. Tho cars run on the Cleveland road from Chattanooga to Tyner’s Station.
