CARO-, Oct. II, 1864
Gen. Oglesby passed through Cairo this
morning: He is still qui.e low from the effects
Of his wounds, and grave fears are entertained
If his recovery
Gen Sullivan, and Col Matthias Of the 9Th
1swa passed through town to-day They
speak in terms Of unqualified admiration Of
the conduct of the 18th Iowa at Coriuth.
They were prominent in that magnificent
ctarg. upon the retel columns which Vas IT,
pulsed in The attempt to capture Ropluett's
battery. Among the trophies gained on that
occasior Was til rebel tag. They uobly re-
dteI2ed themselves from The dispersion cast
upon them in Gen. Eosecrans' Official report
ef tie battle Of I2ta. 'fheir defeat a. that
time was occasiontd by the i3sutsicieucy of
officers.
I have heard, unoficially, OF the promo
tion Of Colonel Ransom Of the gal
liant 11th Illinois, Colonel j. D. Web
e1er, Of Gen. Grants stall; Col. Marsh, Of the
2o.h Illinois; and Col. Crocker, of the 13 h
Iowa, formerly lieutetant colonel of the ID,
to tue rank Of bngadler general. This intel
ligence is gratifying to their friends in the
Northwest. There is another gallant officer,
whose claims to promotion have been too
long overlooked. I refer to Col. Henry
Doughery, and I hope soon to be able to
chronicle his assumption Of the rank Of briRa-
dicr general
Four hundred prisoners, officers and men,
arc now in Cairo, awaiting conveyance to
Eicksburg. Among them il Major Walton,
Of New Orleans, formerly commander; pf the
famous Washington light artillery.
