Manassas gap railroad. The Yankees have left the Orange and Alexandria railroad and concentrated their force on the Manassas Gap railroad. This puts an end to any probability of their approaching Gordonsville from that direction. From Georgia. The Yankees seem to have heard the rumor that Hood had captured Dalton. This we know. Nothing further has been heard from him. We are assured, however, that he is not idle. From Missouri. In Missouri, Price is having everything his own way. The old General said, when he started on his campaign, that he went there to maintain the Confederate Government in the State, and on his own dear soil, or his bones should be there to whiten on the prairie.

Georgia — communication with Sherman out — Dalton surrendered to General Hood. Stanton no longer pretends to receive dispatches from Shermy believed that Dalton, with the Forty-sixth colored, surrendered to Hood's army yesterday, but nothing official is received.
