The army is in good condition, but it is susceptible
of Improvement The old regiments may be relied
upon at all times, in all situations The new ones
who have experienced Colonies will alec co well
Many of the new evies from OHIO however, a7e
commanded by inexperienced men. Gov. Tod, wao
appears to have had an eye on the United States
Senate, in making his military appointments, will
have eome heavy Gins 20 account for. lie confessed
TO the Secretary of War some time ago that he gov
Tod had "apponted the meanest lot OF Colonies
that had ever been appointed Ask Secretary Stan
ton to permit you to copy the letter.
Brig. Gen Negley is relieved from command at
this most and takes the field tomorrow, commanding
a division. Brig Gen Mitchell succeeds Negley's
administration is sharply criticised Those who are
severest are bitter Rebels-wbich is complimentary
10 him. His laxity in the discipline of his command
Iiao cd N
keeping his troops encamped within the corpora
ton. The condition Of the military prisoners OF
Nashville has been horrible. Gen. Negey Is
responsible as commander of the post. lie is ex.
cusabe ON the ground that his abors were enormous,
and he was not efficiently sustained by subordnates.
lie is AN officer of energy, judgment and snap. His
Inspecor-General, Lieut.-Co Won Schrsder, is II
soldier-every inch Of him. Major-Gen. Rosecrans
complimented him recently, in general orders, in
glowing terms. Marjor Hill, % Iowa Cavalry, WISE
eomplimented, in special order, for galantry in n

Mountain year ago or more.
"Gay old Stanley" as the Mississippi army
fondly dencmiDaled Brighten Stanley, commands
the cavalry division and ii working it into BODY
which will DO the country credit. He is gallant
man and able soldier. The cavalry paraded Nash
vile to-day, with their new Colts revolving rifles
Nashville, Just now, is very busy, but not a very
cav place The beautiful Rebel women sun them
selves in the streets reseryedy but they are not at
all dscourteous They have discovered that their
imperious manners don't pay. The theater is -four
ishing under the management Of 5. B. Duffeld and
=, Claude Hamilton tho latter as leading actor.
Duf6eld is the famous Wing songster Of " Tippe-
> canoe and Tyler too" His voice is somewhat
affected by age, but is stll superb. Hamilton s
really meriorous. Tie theater is almos! eXclu-
sivey sustained by the military. The Rebel ladies
do not patronize the establishment
As close, reports come in from the front. Several
strong accommodating parties in front to-day dis
covered that the enemy were in considerable force
at Laysrgue, and that $500 men who were at No
linsville had fallen back to Franklin Our army is
on the alert at every point. PosTMERcY.
