The TIDE is TURNED, AND STRONGLY.
We tell our friends, who will remem-
Der that We have not msled them by err
roneous estimates heretofore, that Ten
nessee will vote for Scott and Graha m
by triumphant majority. We know
OF Democratic changes in their favor
and we hear of them throughout all the
counties. They commence with our
immediate neighbors. in tie street we
live on, and are to be found in the diff
ferent wards of the city, the districts of
the county, and the counties of the
whole State. We can name single
district in a neighboring county in which
thirty-six voters who voted for Cass
four years ago now repudiate PIERCE
We think we can name county near
by where the Wing gain upon the last
election will be from three hundred to
five hundred votes. We now believe we
shall gaia in every, or nearly every
Middle Tennessee county. Our news
from East Tennessee is from reliable
private sources, and is very cheering
From West Tennessee we have no,
heard SO definitely. but we believe we
are there too on gaining ground. We do
not care to boast. but we rejoice tina, the
people Of noble. patriotic Tennessee are
with us, and we cannot help saying so.

lIeutenants Worth and Watts his aids.
From Gen. Ripley and his brigade,
received every assistance that gave them
an opportunity of rendering. 1 did not
order any part of the reserve into action,
until General Por,er's command had
given way, and then General SCOTS
movements were so rapid and decisive,
that Gen. Ripley could not get up ia
time Nth the 2lst, TO the position as
directed. The corps of artillery under
MAJ. Hndman, were not generally in &C.
iIon-this was not their fault---captain
fownson's company was the only one
that had full opportunity of distinguish
ing itself, and it is believed, that no com
pany ever embraced an opportunity with
more zeal, or more success.
A detachment from the I'd brigade, the
command of Lieutenant M'Donald pen
etrated the woods with the Indians and
volunteers, and for their support. The
conduct of M'Donald and his command
reflects high honor upon the brigade to
which they belong.
The conduct Of general Porter ha s
been splculously gallant. Every
assistance in his power to afford, with the
description of force under his command,
has been rendered. We could no, ex-
pecs him TO contend with the British
columns of regulars which appeared up
on the plains of Chippewa. 1t was no
cause OF surprize to ME, to see his COM
and retire before this column.
Justice iorbids that should omit to
name my own family. They yield to
none in honorable zeal, intelligence aud
attention TO duty. COL Gardner, Mai.
Jones and my Aids, Capts Austin and
Spencer, have been as active and as
much devoted to the cause as any officers
Of The army. Their conduct merits my
warm acknowledgements; of Gardner
and Jones | shall have occasion again
TO speak TO you.
Maj. Camp, deputy quarter master
general, deserves my particular notice
and appreciation. By his great exeriion
| was enabled to find the means of cross

partment has rendered every service in
his power. ..
