TIus i'>vi:>4 shies lean softly down to bless; J
The bills reach upward for that urate caress: i
White calms of clouds are floatinyr on tlicir way.
As winded with that sweet peace of yesterday.
Sunrise with sinking in the east is bom.
And the whole earth is jubilant, this mom,
After the Day of llesf.
From out the white tent of that blest repose
We pass, as one who unto battle poes,
Ills heal nnnciv.t d with a kingly oil;
And, as wc climb anew the hills of toil,
The work-day world, elate and all astir
With caper tumults, lookrth hopofullor
After the Day of Rest.
Tims o'er our path the Sabbath lillies spring.
Through hours of strife their dewy sweets to lling:
With bells of peace to call our hearts away,
Expectant still of that eternal day
When souls that burn on tireless wing to rise.
Shall find all high and pnre activities,
And weariness, all rest.

Chattanooga, October 20?G a. m. J
The battles on the Chickamauga are not yet
fought out. Victims arc still falling. Last night
their most prominent v,*as stricken down. Three
Major-Generals?McCook, Crittenden and Negley :
?lost, not their blood, but, what w.as more pre- ,
eious, their commands in them. Now a fourth,
and he the Commander-in-Chief, has been added
to the list. Gen. Rosccrans is deprived of command?sent
into retirement?made to share the
inglorious caso of?alas! so many of our Generals.
Last night a dispatch arrived from Secretary
Stanton, dated Louisville, announcing the con- '
solidation of the three Departments of the Missis- ;
sippi. Cumberland and Ohio under the supreme
command oi' Major-Geuoral Grant, and the erea- 1
tion of those sub-departments of the Mississippi, '
Cumberland and Tennessee, to he respectively
commanded by Major-Generals Sherman, Thomas ]
and Bnrnsido, relieving Gen. Rosccrans from
duty, and directing him to repair to Cincinnati |
and report by letter to the Adjutant-General.
Gen. Rosccrans was not surprised by the blow
tans struck. Private advices from Washington
lnvl led him to expect it for some days. Nor was
the change of oommondors unexpected by those
that knew, like the writer, the displeasure felt at
Washington and manifested toward him for many
months. Put to his staff the order appeared like
a thunderbolt from a clear sky.
The intelligence of the removal of the Commanding
General did not spread beyond the
headquarters last night In the course of the
next hour he will take his departure, accompanied
only by two members of his personal staff,
and without taking formal leave of his army.
I have not time to discuss the manifest motives
of the supreme executive powers in decreeing
this important change. All I can say at present
is thai, although the deposed General has been
vmfnrfnnnte. if not cruiltv of mistakes, in his last
campaign, it seems a hard punishment in view of
the undeniably grout services rendered, in his
previous career. The sen! of discretion being
now removed, I shall bake an early opportunity to
disclose a series of weighty facts that have been
familiar to mo for some time, and will throw full
light upon all the causes of failure in the closing
acts of Gen. Itosoerans' administration of the
Department of the Cumberland. They will show
that the main responsibility?the original agency
in inaugurating the unsuccessful operations?was
not with him, although they do not relieve him of
the onus of certain missteps in their guidance.
I am satisfied that the bulk of the army will
not look-with gratification upon the remov.il of
their lcalcr. The popularity among the rank and ,
file ho gained at Stone ltivcr, and by his consider-!
ate care for the wants of tho army, was somc**hat
lessened but not lost by the bloody days of Chickamanga.
General Grant and .Secretary Stanton arc expect-1
od to visit this amiv in a few days. Assistant '
V Secretary Dana left day before yesterday to- join
the latter.
This morning the changes in the position of tlio
troops along our front necessitated by the reorganization
of the army Mill be made. !
Titf. Richmond Whin complains of General!1
Bilvoo that ''after ho has been made strong;'
enough, by additions to his forces, t) gain ' a com-1
pleto victory,' and has ' destroyed the army' of;
the enemy, he deliberately sits down and waits '
nntil the euomv has so fortified himself and so I'
strengthened his ranks rv> to bo more formidable, 11
relatively as well as really, than ever." "Many j ]
persons," it says, think that instead of rcinforc-! (
ing General Bragg with a larger army, it would .
be better to reinforce his army with an abler and j
bolder general. v 11

Bologna whelp, recently tnrncu Tip in the mayor's
court at the rcl >cl capital:
it t -n. .1 .1 .1 :ii. IK.,,. <31*1,.
" uuuis rvifii was cnargcii wau wiun^ mun ;
find unsound moat in the Second Market. It j
appears that a lad named F. Le Voss bought some
sausages at Prick's stall, on Tuesday morning,
and took it home, when the ladies had some of it
cooked for breakfast. It tasted so badly that they
could not eat it, and on breaking open some that
was not cooked, a number of puppy's dws were
brought to sight. These were exhibited in court,
with a specimen of the meat, which has neither
the appearance of beef nor pork.
Charles Ilerst, an agent of Frick's, who was
present in court, said that the supposed claws
came out of a beefs head, under the tongue; but
this statement was contradicted by Officer Carne,
himself a butcher of long experience.
The case was continued until Thursday. If it
proves that tho sausage was realey made of dog
meat, it is to bo hoped that the Mayor will not
treat the offence leniently. It is bad enough to
have to pay one dollar per pound for poor beef,
without being subjected to the risk of having to
pay for tho pulverized carcasses of deceased puppies.
The sausages purchased in this instance
was of the long Dutch sty to, facetiously christened
"Dolognn."

A Rcor.chixo Rebuke.?A highly instructive as
well as amusing incident took place in one of the
business houses on one of our principal streets
last Saturday, while the colored regiment was
marching along to the music of the national airs.
Several gentlemen were looking on the parade,
among them a wealthy planter of Alumna, who
is a large slaveholder. One of the group stepped
out to the door, looked out for a few minutes, and
then, indignantly turning on his heel, addressed
himself to the grave Alabamian, to the following
purport:
"Well, I'll be d?d, if that is not a burning disgrace,
which no decent white man can tolc rate.
Isn't that nigger regiment too groat an insn11! "
The Alabamian jumped to his feet, and replied,
while his eyes flashed lire.

i<? not a bettor man than a rebel to this Government,
and for whom I have not a thousand times
more respect than I have for a traitor to his country.
I think that the best possible use the Government
can make of negroes is to make them
fight against tho rebels. No traitor is too good
to be killed by a negro, no weapon too severe to
use against the wretches who are endeavoring to
overthrow tho Government. Now, sir, swallow
that, whether you like it or not"
The rebel darted off in utter amnjscgnent, without
uttering a syllable of reply, leaVitiJf the sturdy
Alabamian, who cherished the jewel of patr otism
as something more precious than flocks of slaves,
"alone in his glory."?Xushvllte Union.
Diking and Deht.?Hid Confederates early
attempted to gain consideration in Paris by giving
dinners. They hoped to carry th.e city by champagne.
A large number of yonng rebel gentlemen,
who wore engaged in this bnsincss of dining,
have suddenly fallen short of funds. Mr. Slidell
declines to render them any further assistance,
and duns begin to threaten. It is feared that
they will find their position as prisoners of debt,
quite as unpleasant as many of their fighting comrades
have found to l>c their position as prisoners
of war.
?Hon. J. M. Dotts. it is already known has
boon taken a second time to Richmond by the
rebels. He was arrested immediately 011 oar forces
falling back to the north side of the Rappahannock,
on tlio charge of having violated liis
parole and baring invited federal ofiicers to hi.s
house, the proof resting on certain indiscreet
newspaper letters soon after our arrival at Culpepper,
and also on the finding on his premises a
musket and equipments abandoned by one of our
soldiers. Two of his daughters voluntarily accompanied
him to Richmond.
Cixatlains Not to be IIeld as Prisoners.?
Gen. Meredith has succeeded in effecting the release
of all the chaplains of the Union army now
held as prisoners of war by the rebels. In return,
our Government has released all rebel chaplains.
Ueroaftcr, chaplains will not be held as prisoners
of war.

It has been pretty extensively reported that
there is a lack of live oak at the Navy yard, owing
to the difficulty of obtaining it from some of the
Southern forests. This however, is not the ease.
An official stated yesterday that there was enough
on hand to build a dozen first-class ships.
The three war-steamers, Peoria, Tullahoma and
Aljonquin, are nearly ready for launching. The
former will probably go into the water next week.
