Extract OF 2 letter from a gentleman in Nash
vile, CIen) to one OF the Editors o. the
Louisville Correspondent, dated
Nov. 23d, 1919.
We have just received the gratifying intel
llgence OF the capture Of PENSACOLA BY
Gen. jackson. 1t was taken without any op-
position. A letter from Jitdge StodGard at
the agency of the Greek nation, states that
Gen. jacks n with The ma n army has set off
with ell sfseeG fsr Ncw- Orleans, where IT is
supposed large British force is expected
shortly n arrive. He has left Z garrison
at Pensacola. So soon as the enemy learnt
that our army was near at hand they blew
up the fort and made for their shipping in
the Bay. You MAJ rely on the correctness OF
this.
