I Ell E G r A P HIC.

Nashville, Dec. 2i.-The Bowling
Green correspondent Of the Union
and American, in his letter Of the 23d
inst, says: The Federal General
Buell., with formidable force, esti-
mated at not less than $4,000 men,
and by many at 10000 men, has been
for several days past moving in the
direction Of Bowling Green. Unsual
preparations are now making, show
ing that terrible conflict is impend-
ing. A force of not less than 6OOO
men, the advance Of Buell's army,
have crossed Green River and are
now within five miles OF orr advance,
which is under the command Of Gen.
Hiudnan, at Cave City.
1t was reported few days since
that the enemy had retreated across
Green River, the report was partially
true, Gen. Hindman had changed his
pickets from the front Of the enemy
who, imagining that a flank. move
ment was being made, fled in the
greatest disorder, leaving behind their
tents, wagons and baggage, Their
flight is reported to have been a regu-
lar stampede, the Federals double
quicking five miles. The Fcderals
returned ON the following day, the
goth inst, and are now within 80
miles of Bowling Green. The entire
clan which We're recently at Nolin
have been moved to Green River
where there is now not less than 35,-
900 men. Every appearace indicates
a speedy opening OF the winter cam
paign.
a Federal officer was arrested near
Bowling Green on the 21st inst, with
a spy glass making observations Of
the different Notifications. He repre-
sented himself to be deserter from
the 45th New York Regiment, and
that he had made his way from the
Potomac to that place. 1t is supposed
he belongs to Which Indiana Regi-
ment, which was put to flight a few
days since by the Texas Rangers
He will be sent to Richmond.
A gentleman who LETT the Ohio
river on the 10th inst, says Tom Grit
tenden's forces had crossed Green
River, and are now at HendersonviIle.
to move on Hopkiasville.
