CorreepoEdence of the Cblcatro Trfbine.l MairrHis, Oct. 1 lent. On Saturday night, or early Sunday morning, the military authorities here received positive Imoimatlon that Forrest was at Corinth a week ago, and was also massing considerable bodies of troops at Grenada and Jackson, Miss. The accounts of these forcee were doubtless exaggerated, as ha was reported to have 20,000 On Sunday last demonstrations were made toward our lines. Whether they really In.

tended to attack the city or not I cannot, of course, say. There Is great diversity of opinion on the question, many thinking the demonstration merely a feint to cover the transit southward ot plunder captured at Eastport, or to strike northward into Ken. tucky. Taylor, Chalmers and Wirt Adams were reported to be acting in concert with Forrest. On Sunday night the enemy were known to be In four strong divisions, on four roads leadiog into Memphis, and Og that night signal rockets, red and white, were sent up.

Our forces cuds all possiola preparations to give the rebels a warm reception by digging rifle-pits and throwing up barricades at the various crossings of Gajoeo bajou, taking up the bridges, and urging forward the work upon the four new forts ia process of erection, lying beyond the bj ou. One of these forts is no completed, and the others very nearly so. Tbe ore just completed is aoutn of tbe city, and Is intended to prevent the rebela from forcing their way In through Memphis, and tbus cutting off tbe troops in tne city from Fort Pickering, take both in detail and at an ad vantage. The regiments or enrolled militia were also engaged on the fortifications. All through the cly tbe streets were barricaded witb cotton bales, and all preparations for a vigorous defence were made.

(On seeing their cotton thus unceremoniously made use of, many persons offered to sell it for thirty nvs cents a pound.) On Sunday nlgnt the military stores, cars, and other material at White's Station were brought here, and an immediate attack waa anticipated, but signal ligbts, bine and whi, were eent up as it to warn tee rebels. Tbey were probably thus warn-' ed by persons in tbe city, and the military are making every effort to discover the spies who gave information in this manner. On this ii'gbt, also, a number of black regiments were taken into Fort Pickering, and outlying r.tiiments were drawn nearer to the city. On Monday the preparations were In continued prtgreee. Tbe militia patrolod the streets, arresting and pressing into tue service aw who were capable ot rendering assistance; aad it speaks well for the increas-ug lojaltj of Memphis that many citizens who are txempt fro miliWry duty voluntarily off-red their services to do what they couia tor tne aeiense oi me city, oa Honda; aightthe rebels had made no further advancer their advance was at that time within twenty miles ot the city.

So imminei-t Was the danger considered, on SuLday and Monday night, by Geo. M. L. Smiih, that all the airs at the depot saat of tbe fra; ou were run into rort With all tbe stores in their vicinity. This morning Chalmers is known to have le't Coldwoter.

One account stttes that Mond.y or Tuetday he crossed the Mempals and Charleston Kailroad, near Moscow. He lett about one hundred of Henderson's men at Coldwater CD picket duty. Gen. Dick Taylor is said to be in strong force on the Pigeon Boost Boad, which runs Southeast of the city. At 2 o'clock yesterday afernooo, the militia who had been constantly employed since Sunday moraine, and were very much latiuued, were allowed to return home for a few hours rest Tueir respite was not of very long duration.

At 3 o'clock this morning the cannon was fired a the belia were rung as tbe signal for tbem to assemble. They responded promptly to the call, and all stores are closed, and business suspended, as it has been since Monday morning. The militia seem very willing to do all tbat is required ot tbem. At the New Memphis theater last evenine, some one called out tbat the cannon had fired, and it was quite ludicrous to see tbe haste) with which they left the louse, tumbling one over the other; after ail, it turned out to be a fa! lae alarm, and they bad the satis taction to see the play out. oeterals M.

L. Smith, Grierson, and Buck-land have been in consultation, aa.l have advices that tbe enemy sttil threaten Mempb.il. But whether the a' rack was or is Intended t.r us is still urcntain, Simultaneous with this have been demonstrations against Columbus, Paducah aud MasvUle. The probability Is, however, tbat the latter are only feints to cover the-ttack on onr city, and if they do not attack us, it will be because thy are advised tht ample preparations have been made to repulse any torce they could biing aitainet us It wcu'd be impose ible for them to take the city, and of this their offl. cua are doubtless well informed through tbeir spies and taelr many sympatuUing friend here.

Too much pralae cannot be awarded to General Smith, Grierson. Bucklan1, and eateb, who have held frequent coosuititlons snd scted with entire unanimity throughout. General Teatch was at Fort Pickering, in charge of matters there. It is reported that he Is to supersede General Bucklaud, but that is probably a mistake, tbe wish bein? father to the thought, perhaps. The rumor is based on ire supposition mat uenerai nuciuand Is soon to enter on his congressional amies.

But he does not take his position in Cm-grtes until a year from this timet, and he will moat iikeiy remain wrw us tor soms time to come. There are, however, some changes to take pltice here that will Interest you. Lieut. Col. IL Harris, Ase't Adj.

The districts oi West Tennessee aud Vlcksburg have also be combined, and are to be commanded by Maj. Gen. W. J. T.

Hoge. He reports the lots of seventyone killed, wounded, and mUslng. Other accounts sar several hundred. About aix' hundred went aahiire, Perlectly unconacloua of danger, taking very little ammunition with them, and lounging and lying abont at their ease, when suddenly tbe rebels opened on tbem with chain saot, from two masked batteries. The alaugn-Ur must have been immense.

It is reported that only two guns were lost. One was ashore, the other one on the staging just being taken out. Much regret is felt for tbs loss of Capt Hoyt, of the 118th Illinois, whom it is feared was killed at Eastport. It is, however, not certain. There are a great many rusors about, some of tbem perfectly ridl ulous.

For ir stance, President Lincoln is said to be at Cairo, on his way to tt.is city. I do not know whether he is expected to tike command when he reaches here or not. There is auid to have been a battle in the east. Some say Bicnmond is taken, others say Grant baa beea whipped. I have heard tbat Gen.

Washburn is in the rear of Forrest with 25,000 men, trinz to get that wily fox into a trap; oi these things you know quite as much as I do. Since the lines have been closed, tbe country people are not allowed to come In, and ceovle eoinjr to market return with very long facer, as 11 they feared impending star vation. I forgot to mention that there is a very laree fleet of gunboats here, and the present Aetirg Admiral, is nero in command. He came down on Saturday evening. 1 here is also a report tbt Marmaduke has Vrruuu-ri from Miseourt Into Tennessee, and ia row north of Memphis, intending to join In tbe anticipatei atlauK.

The weather has grown cloudy and threatens rain. The He-taUT Washington special says It is cptnly avowed by the highest military authorities, that General Grant can at any time, with a few hours' fighting, occupy Richmcnd. The only reason assigned for delay Is the desire of the Lieutenant General to obtain the same result without the sacrifice of life that would attend Its capture by direct sssau't; According to later accounts Sheridan's grand cavalry charge, made by Custar on the right, aid on the left, was magnificent in the highest degree. The charge was executed at a trot, and doubled up bath flanks of the rebel army, puehing its broken fragrr.er.ts across Cedar Creek, achieving what an ordinary General would have been satisfied with, but tot so Sheridan. An old dragoon himself, end knowing all secrets sale, he called for the two brigades ofDevina', of Merritt's and Wells', of Custar's Division, who were promptlv thrown across the creek, clesrirg the bridges at a gtllop nnder "ie arimery ata tnusseiry nre.

Diapitch to hs Chicago Tribaae. Buoaiwmn. Monday, Oct. ii. The loj.l citizens of this -count turned out In thtir might to day, and early in the morrlng the streets of this city were thrjng-ed with a vast crowd of the substantial yeomen from a district lull 40 miles round.

At a very moderate estimate we may place their numbers at not less than but If we were, to follow the rules of enumeration adopted by the Copperhead reporters no less a crowd than 20,000 were present, It seemed that every store In the ci of 9,003 inhabitants had ceased business for the time and that every woman, and cbild had turned out to honor pay homage to the great America i Statesman who row wields our destinies and to the brave commander by whom he is so ably assisted. Tbe procession which was formed, was not specially characterized by the display of flags, atd banners and showy Cevices, but it was composed of those solid el mente which i- dicate the thoroughly bud-etanual arid reliable nature of the people of this couity.

A trocession of not.ltss than live miles leatb, con poet of such material, is a glorioaa augury of success lor tLe catue of the Union. Two stands were erected for speakers.

On tie first stand the Hon. J. W. Fell mads a yetj fine address in support ot the principles of the Union party, and then introduced Gov. Yates to tbe aualence.

The Governor was received by the multitude with deafening cheers, and made one of his best speeches. It is not necessary for us to eater into details in respect to it, as your readers are already fully advised as to the sentiments Which onr wortny uovernor entertains ana so nobly and elcqaently advocates. He was lollod by Judge McLaiu In a speech filled with quaint humor aad lamentations ever the fate of his Democratic friends, who abandoned all their principles, and were now adhering to no thing but the nme. Among tbe other speakers of the day were Revs. G.

W. Dodge, C. G. Bradshaw, and Reuben snd Andrew Reeves, as well as Capt Keener, late of tne 26th regiment Illinois Voluntetrs. But the grar and crowning victory of all was in the evening.

A torchlight procession of tome 2,000 geniuine torches was formed, consisting ot about oae-fuurtb horeemen and three-fourths on foot. Alter ttklrg a tour around the town they forrxed in quadruple lines around the Court House Square, and then, amid the ringing of belle, tbe strains of music from many a band' the booming of ctnnon, and the applauding shouts of the multitude, there was such a display cf fireworks as we have rarely witnessed. It casts into the ebaie all pre.l,us pisplays during the campaign, and perhaps was rarely exceeded in any city of the continent. The wboie affair proved a joyous one, tending to render our continence still more confident and serving to show wh.t the Union cause develops in the hearts of the Fitoat iTiliiiso.

They were regularly commissioned by the Confederate government, who furnished the money. Jaoob Thompson and Geo. N. Sanders were sent out to superintend operations. The programme was to make a raid on Detroit in the night, burn the depots and are-i houses on.

the docks, seize the principal steamers and destroy the remainder; Simultaneous demonstrations were to be made on Buffalo, and Rochester, and amid tbe confoelcn and excitement of theae raids, tbe stesmer Michigan was to be cap tured, atd tbe prisoners on Johnson's Island released. It was expected, with the released prisoners, to capture and man enough vessels to sweep our commerce from the lakes. The plot was concocted at the Eiron's Bouse, Windsor, where, several consultations were held by Thompson, Binders and others. The sctl'I'y and energy of our military authorities here, frustrated the rlans ot the raiders, ai-d tbe capture ot the Puilo Parsons and the Island Queen was theonlv result. It is rumored tbat another Canadian rebel plot, of a similar character.

Ibis is from his own lips About 1 o'clock Friday night Bill Anderson, who occupied Glasgow with a company of bis men, accompanied by a Ctptaia from Callaway county, went to Lewis' house and demanded his presence.

Upon being told ne was net at Dome, Anderson said unless be was immediately forthcoming, he would burn tbe house, but If he made his appearance his life should be spared. Upon this seeursnce, Mrs. Lewis sent for her husband. Mrs. John B.

But this did not eat ii-fy him, and he commenced a series of ontrages upon Mr. Lewis, which are si-most unparalelied in the annals of even savage warfare.

He first knocked Lewis down by a blow on the head with his pistol, which was repeated several times, both An. dereon snd hi. aid mingling their blows with blasphemous and obecene curses. Anderson then stood Lewis on bis head, doubled him up, and jumped upon him, and Anderson and this tjsp tain put tbe muzzles or both their pistols In bis mouth, and at once crammed them down his throat, choking him terribly, asaiDg mm sow ne iwea tnar. mis was re peated several times.

Anderson also made Lewis stand against the wall and shot at bis legs across the room. hittimr them. He then placed his pistol to Lewis' knee, and fired down at bis feet, the powder burn! tie bis legs. This was done twice. He alto choked Lewis several times.

Then taking his knife out, seized Lewis bv the neck and felt for bis luirular vein, pricking it with the knife, and gtvtnir an Indian yell, said This old fellow thinks more ot nia money than his lite, and I'll cut his throat." After this Lewis was taken from his house guarded by Anderson, who went to hunt up what money he could in town. He found two ladies, who went to fork to raise money for him. While the money was being raised, Anderson laid Lewis on the counter of a store, and with his knire ripped his shirt collar open and slit his vest aim piufis ia pieces, xnis was wo o'clock in. the morning, and Lewis having suffered for tour hours, was seized with a chill as be lay on the counter. Anderson told his Orderly to pile some chairs on the 1- gs of the old coon to keep them still, which was done, finally, Mrs.

He replied four thousand dollars. This sum produced, five thousand being in paper, and one in gold. 1 hlB being done, Anderson turned Lrf wis over to Mrs. Ihompsou, remarking as be did so he would rather have Lewis' life than his money.

Throughout the whole pro ceeding Anderson frequently imitated tbe Indian war whoop, mentiouitg the name of the tribe be Imitated.

Anderson would punch him every few minu tes with his pistol, besides often striking him Diowsneavy eaousn to Knock mm down. His throat is swelled, and toe inside oi his mouth is raw.

This was done while the rebel General J. B. Clark's mother and Sterling Frii-e'e brother-in-law, besides Mr. Lewis1 wife, were lu the same house, and not per mitted to stir out of it.

The com bined Union forces under Curtis, Bose-crans, A.

J. Smith, Fleaaaaton, Jenm-Bon and others. were Dressing on bis- rear and drawing the blood at every stroke. Our eoldiera fought nobly, and oar last night's dispatch carries forward though only briefly and without detail the good new previously reported. Our bo ont that way are rough riders and Vigorous Cghtera.

They will (pare neither bono Bean nor the sabre's edge, aad Pries will be rudely bandied every step of the way. There Is in our view, however, very little prospect that he will be bagged. Toe bagging business has never been thrivingly suecenful out that wav. Price has a large asd admirably mounted cavalry force, or there is no virtue in torse-stealing, while have reason to believe that our own mounted force is not what the present juncture requires for effectiveness. It Is, hoev2r, certain that the tide is turapd, and the rebel cause in Missouri is literally at it last ebb.

Before it can again seek to return, the loyal breakwater- Win have been completed In re-election of Abraham Lincoln, and the only thing left the rebels will be their last ditch. We rublish elsewhere Gen. Butler's congratulatory order to the Army of the James, in which he reviews their Operations from the commencement of the spring; campaign to the present time. It is a pretty eoticln aive proof that the old hero isn't dead, as recently rumored. -Thursdsy evening of tMs week is to be memorable In this campaign.

On that Colfix, of Indiana, Hon. Lyman Tremaine, of New York, and Hon. Carl Bcfcurz will address Union laving cltl-sens, and all lovers of sound Union These three several addresses will be delivered at places elsewhere announced, and will call out In the three meetings the largest aggregate of Republican listeners this campaign has jet sailed out Gen. Schara wUl address his German feUow-cItiz ns in their native tongue, at German Hall, on North TV ells street. The otner two distinguished gentlemen win respectively fill the nail In which they are announced to speak.

Let every one who loves the Union and its cause be present. The Committees are making preparation for the accommodation of lojal ladies who may wish to attend. Sheridan's late batUe was a severe one and its results were glorious. A recapitulation elsewhere given In our dispatches says our losses in the battle of the 19th instant will reach 5,000 in killed, wounded and missing. We also lost, aily in the morning, 24 guns.

We have captured, including the wounded, who are in our hands, about 7,000 men and 60 guns. The total loss of the enemy car not, therefore-, be much short of imr thocbakd tow. Geuerel CuBtar alone has receipts for forty-five guns and five battle-flags, besidf a large number of ambulances, 'bone, barneM, mules, -etc This makes fttt-onb pieces of artillery that hi division has captured duiirg the last two weeks. Shetidau'e splendid achievements have sent wsve if enthusiasm through the whole area lice, and our troopers buckle their belts tighter and grasp their eabres more firmly tieoreis and on the -Missouri border, for the example Phil. Sheridan's men have set them, and Dadd- Price suffers worse because Of the disasters of Early and Lonestreet.

Our Xfetroit dispatch grves a glimpse of reoei plots lniminated on Canada soil against our border cities and towns. Forewarned Is forearmed. It will be quite as well if all vigilance is exercised exposed points. The Provinces are full of hmpgry and needy fellows, resdy for any deed of rapine or outrage, especially undtr the claim of acting in the Confederate service they can perform deeds that the world has usually set down as bandittism. It is a happy day for a thief when he en find it legal to steal.

But the fit. Albans anair has not largely advanced tne quotations for stock In such schemes. A few more such lessons will be enough. Only be ready to give them on calL It is delightful to not ice how the party of McPendleton love our boys In blue. Tht ir latest attempt is to throw out the soldiers' Tote In Maryland, aa stated in our dispatches elsewhere.

We don't hear anything said now tout Democrats being the only ones who go the war. A grain of dust on jour palm passes unnoticed. In your eye it may create Intense pain. Toat miniature officer, Dan. Cameron made himself of about aa much figure in the line of bis military duty aa a gopner in a ten sere lot.

Nobody ever beard of him, and if found with a fine tooth comb nothing was ever developed to his advantage. Sick of the necessary obscurity which nature entailed upon him, Dan. has come out a blatant Copperhead, and from fighting rebels In the South has come home, we haU tell how presently, to the much safer business of nghtinK loyalty in the North. He has attacked John A. Logan with all the eagerness and power of a hungry grayback to a soL dier's blanket.

Gen. Logan will survive, and Cameron will live to be ashamed of him self. 9 Ha Mr. Lincoln been less penerou In his offers, aad to. Comedento Ooverament mora liberal, tb Ccs'tderACT tc-day would ostc bad a tul-srably Rood offer in tbe per-oa of Gen.

This ia a poor dodge to save McClellan, for Whose services Mr. Lie cola outbid Jell Davis. The rebel papers at the time when the "grave digger of the Chlckahomlny" was rooting rn tbe marshes in front of Blchmond, related bow he had applied lor a command in the rebel army at the time of the creaking out of the war; but the commission Davis offered him was not equally to the value he. placed on himself. At this critical Juncture Sir.

Lincoln on the recommendation and at the urgent request of Gov. of Ohio, offered him a general's shoulder straps and the army of West Virginia. He preferred the offer to that made to him by Jeff. Davis and accepted it. Mr.

Lincoln, In his Ignorance ot the man, "bid and thus secured the norntna services of a poor stick at best, whose heart was always on the other side of the line. evtthtoa revolted slaveholders. It was the fortune" of Jtff. Davis to be better ac quainted with the actual calibre and bona fl it value of the "grave digger" toan Lincoln, and hence he 'Most the aid" of the "freat un-lesdy." As to Gen. Logan, he was not put into the field by Mr.

Lincoln.or through his influence jutby Ms own patriotic promptings of duty. Gen. Logan raised a regiment of 1,090 men, among bis old Democratic neighbors and associates In Egypt. He went into the service aa a piivato soldier, to fight for the flag of bis country. His regiment elected him its Colonel; Gov.

Yatea issued him a commis sion. President Lincoln had nothing to do with it. He was not consulted, nor his as aistance required. Logan fought brsvely-Iesperately, at the head of his "Egyptians." He was promoted to a Brigadiership for gallant services and fitness for higher command, on the recommendation of his superior officers. Els next promotion to a Major Gane-ral'a double star, was obtained in tbe same legitimate and soldierly way.

Bravery, talents and merit were his passports to promotion. The false and malicloua accusations brought sgainat a heroic and patriotic officer, by the rebel print and its lickspittles wUl fall, harmless, to the ground. ETiHITIOS-lBT ir leal. compelled Lee and Davis to treat our colored troops when captured by the rebels as prisoners of war, and not as slaves.

Patriotism. At tbe outbreak ol tbe rebellion, arscg the many who sprang to the protection or the flag, were four brothers named Merrian, rei-dei tsotthe town of Lyon, in this county. Oue es iisted in Bridges' battery. The other three entered tbe 12io II inais infantry, but two, after remaining in ths regiment tor ninety tys, lett and enlistta in the bl' Infjtuiry the Fremont Rifles. George, oie of those iu the 37th, contracted a serious aistate on the Rio Grtnde, in Texas, and, when his term of service expired, not long returned boae to die, aa event which occurred yesterday, in Lyons.
