Memphis, Nov. 4. On the 1st of No
vember General Hurlbut's tcouts brought
reports that Chalmers was concentrating
a force for another raid upon the Mem
phis and Charleston Railroad.
On the 2d our picket posts on the
Coldwater were attacked, and Chalmers
crossed at the mouth of the Tippah with
a column reported be 1,500 strong, and
advanced on the road toCollierville.
Colouel Hatch left Memphis on the
night of November 1st with three regi
ments of cavalry. He camped at Ger
mantown on the night of the 2d, and
reached Collierville just half an hour af
ter the rebels had attacked that post.
The fight lasted from half-past twelve
until half-past three, when the rebels
were repulsed. I have obtained the fol
lowing list of casualties in the 2d Iowa
cavalry: Company A, Capt Charles
Horton, wounded in the groin; Company
B, private William Wallace, in the chest;
Company C, Edward Perry, chest; J. S.

skirmishing with them at last accounts.
Colonels McCrellis and Millner are
endeavoring to flank them to-day.
Colonel Hatch estimates their loss at
3,000.
From Chattanooga.
Chattanooga, Nov. 6. All is quiet
along the lines to-day.
The enemy kept up a lazy fire from a
20-pounder gun on the crest of Lookout,
occasionally reaching onr lines.
They varied the entertainment this af
ternoon by throwing a number of shells
inside their own lines. This strange
conduct excites considerable comment.
Last night several rebel camps disap
peared from the front on our right, and
information leads us to the belief that
Bragg's army has been weakened recent
ly, for some purpose not yeWrevealed.
Longstreet's headquarters have been es
tablished on Lookout Mountain, which
is held by a strong force.
It ts estrmatect that the reoeis nave ex

from Lookout, and killed one Federal
soldier, and wounded another. Both
casualties were in the west valley.
Twelve deserters from a Kentucky
rebel regiment came in to-day. They
report their whole regiment ready to fol
low at the first opportuuity.
Since Bragg has been cut off from
East Tennessee, rations have been short.

EYAXSYILLE, INDIANA.
I EITTENBERG HAS NOW ON HANDS A
. splendid assortment of Optical Instruments,
ahich be will dispow of at greatly reduced
prices; bis goods being sll of the very latest im
provements in manufacture, consisting of a very
large variety of Spectacles from the most common
to the very best, vis : The finest quality of Gold
Spectacles, these Glasses being constructed on the
most accurate adaptation of the Convex Concavo
Periscopic principles. Also, Silver of tnree dif
ferent erades of Glasses, No. 1 belag ou the same
principle as the Gold Spectacles. No. 2 is a Perl
focal Lense ; No. 3 being a fine Achromatic Lense,
mirror shape.
In addition to tbe above I have a line assort
ment of Steel, of the very best quality of Lenses
tbe frames being grooved i nto tbe Glasses. The
frames are so fine as to be scarcely visible. No. 2
of steel is Perifocal. No. 3 the globulus of a
smoked Lense, adapted for weak sight where
strong light, snow or wind affects the vision.
These Spectacles are a perfect preventative by use
ing them constantly, causing the eye to gain its
healthy power and retain it to old age.
Having had very considerable experience also in
cateract eyes, in adapting glasses to such vision,
would impress on the miDds of all persons need
ing glasses of sny description, to apply for such
only to a regular Optician, making that his sole
stndy and business for yean, he alone being able
to know from the peculiar anatomy of the eye th
nature of thedefect. whether arising from weak
nessof s-ght, flattening of the pupil, or other
misfortune occurring to the visisn. The eye be
ing the most delicate organ, and of the most vital
importance to the hippiness and prosperity of
man, should never be tampered with, either by
the individual or by those who, fur mere profit,
take upon themselves the selling of Optical In
struments, and who know nothing of tbe anatomy
of tbeeye, or how to discover the proper glasses to
suit the peculiarity of the different sights of those
needing spectacles. Thousands have lost their
vision entirely from not applying to those oaly
qualified to know tbe different defects in each in
dividual's sight and how to remedy it by wearing
tbe proper kind of spectacles. I. Rittenberg,
having had over twenty-five years experience as a
regulsr practical optician, can assure those giving
him their patronage that by applying to him they
cau get the very right kind" of glasses adapted to
their case, and in almost every one secure good
eye siirht to old age. Ner sighted persons can
also obtain of him th l.xtcst improvement iu
spectacles suited to them, being a new invention.
1 have also the most recently new Field Glasses,
with Astroniical eye pi- .-.. being very superior
to the old opera glass arrangement. All kinds ot
Optical Instruments repaired at the shortest no
tice, and thase having purchased spectacles of me,
and having had the misfortune to break one of the
