Some believe Meade will not attack Lee in front, but -will attempt a flank movement to Fredericksburg. Among the rcent arrivals here is Senator Johnston, of Arkansas. Further correspondence 'between Ould and Meredith relative to the exchange of priouers is published. The former, under date of October '20th, proposes that all officers and men on both sides be released in conformity with the provisions of the cartel, and the excess on the one side or the other to be paroled. Meredith replies at length,'and charges that a system of exchanges was first rtirst interrupted by the Confederate Government in de fining its purpose to make certain distinctions in the treatment of a particular class of troops. II refers also to the charges that Ould improperly declared exchanged a large portion of the troops captured and paroled by ,Grant, and having thus exhausted paroled prisoners in This handi. he urouoses deliveiinsr prisoners ia our (Tan-J kee) hands for whom' there are no equivalents, or com , paratively few. The proposal, therefore, not acceoted. Ouid, on the 31st, exposes the falsity of the various statements of the Yankee Couimiiouer, and r hukes in-malignant and wanton aspersion of the motives ofthe Confederate au thorities? making the proposal contained in the letter ofthe 20tk. II.' says in conclusion, let me tfU yon the purpose of your Utter i apparent. It has been well known for a long time that your authorities are opposed to a fair and regular exchange of prisoner! under the cartel, and in rejecting my proposition you hava endeav ored to conceal, under eloped vagui charges and unfound ed ftatements of the xietvruiination at which vour rov trnment lor.j Fjnce an ived.

V.. is one whi-h intensifies as the strife proceeds, and always found eaual to anv physical force that we can bring mtij the liidn.

W ntre t! j.?na is some question that aS'ects only the dignity or in- ttretot anatiuD.it may y it Id its point to physical su periority; when it i aroused to the vindication of the pi incipl'of political existence, it is iud-imitable. Xo en lijjhteneo. people, educated to freedom, have ever been 'essentially subdu"d. Their territorv may have been overrun, their armies destroyed and their capitals occu pied by invadi.-ra, but thy have always preserved the sirit of national independence which, however ehacklcd, awaits th;j hour o its r'lenjption. If our statesmm woald i)ut give their intellects some respite from preoccupation -upon' the military situation, they niijjht appreciate how futile must b-? the attempt to iUr.juu-ate the u ill at' such a people.

We hav- to conquer piivsical resistance, which ha thua far d- !:ed our ut:co.-t efforts; and which, being conquered, will jrive us but so many disaffected provinces to he con trolled by military agencies. -to the destruction of our republican institutions. We have ui ged a suspension of hctHities, chieflv because we are assured that 'states manship is paralvzed by civil strife and fails to consider the Folution of the political problem. Let reason have its opportunity, and there is heart and brain enough in either section lo bear its counsels and abide by its de cisions. Thb Fight at Lewisbubg. The Lynchburg Jiepub Jican, ofthe 0th , says : Authentic reports were received here Saturday, that a blood v battle was fought Fridav, ne:ir Levvisburg, in Greenbrier countv, between the Yankea General Averill. with 7,0U0 iiH-n. 'and: Gtneral Echols, commanding the Confederates, with about 2.000. The great disparity cd' numbers between the opposing force? niaoe it necessary for General Fchoh to ret: eat, after a fight of two hours, in which lie is reported to have lost very heavily in kill ed and wounded. We have no particulars of 'casualties. It was stated Saturday night by passengers on;. the Western train, that our troops were retreating in thedi rection of Salem, sixty miles west of this city, on the Yir ginia and Tennessee Railroad, and that they were being closely pursued by the enemy, wboj it was feared, unles checked, would succeed in reaching the railroad. The movement is regarded as a diversion in favor of IJurnsidrf in Kast Ttnnesse, vvh is being rather hotly pressed by our force? there. Reinforcements are being sent forward to the support of General Echols, and it is hoped will arrive in time to save the railroad from damage and the rich counties bordering it from plunder and devastation. The Virginian says General Jones telegraphed Gen. Nichols, Saturday, for reinforcerant3 fo meet Averill, who wa3 supposed to be approaching the Virginia and Tennessee Road, at Salem. Rev. S. 1). MACPitKErsas. Among the recent religious items from the United States it ia announced that Rev. S. B. Macpheeters has ben obliged by public pressure to resign his pastoral charge of the Pintj Street Presby terian Church. At a recent meeting of members a reso lution condemning the rebellion and calling upon its members to abstain from giving any aid and countenance to the slavery lords at the South, was adopted.

The Indianapolis Stutinel says : The individual who is now confined in the Ohio Peni tentiary, because of his purposeless raid through ladiana and Ohio, has, although he has got his head' shaved, a stock of chivalry about him. We are informed by a Uni-' ted States army ofllcer that when ha reached Versailles, Ripley countv, this side ofthe Ohio line, he found in the safj ofthe Clerk's oilice three hundred thousand dollars done up in packages, sent home by soldiers in our ranks, fighting for their country and our own gloriom flag, to their fimili-'s. Morgan had the money in his hands, but, understanding from wb"m it was and what its destina tion, immediately returned it, remaiking that if it was Uncle Sam's money ha would take it, but never would he plunder any brave man in the field, conscientiously per forming his duty as he understood it. This is a streak of honor nd chivalry about this 'Thief" called Morgan, as wo .have before remarked. Two Galj.ant GfiLFOKn Boys. Col. J. A. Gilmer, of the 27th Regiment, who was wounded at 41ristow in the hip, has arrived at Greensboro', and, is recovering. We hope that the gallant Colonel Will soon bo restored to his command in the field, and promoted to a Brigadicrship for meritorious services. Adjutant James Turner Morehead, son of Gov. More head, who rec ived a dangerous wound through the mouth aud head at Brandy Station, is also at home ia Greensboro', and hopes are entertained of his final re covery. S: ivdtird.
