Cross Timbers.
The people in this vicinity are mostly Union.
there being but three secessonists this road
from Cassvlle to Flat Creek 1t stopped with
good Union man last night, and found several of
his neighbors present, all anxious to be informed
whether our army was going to leave them to
the tender mercies of the secessionists. They
said no money could hire them to endure the
constant annoyance submitted TO last summer.
They were obliged to leave their families and
crops suffering, and shelter themselves for days
and weeks in the bush to get out OF reach OF the
rebels. Bands of outlaws frequently came down
from Cassvills and would rob Union men of ev-
erything in the house, blankets, bread, bacon,
&c, and it they caught the owner, he would be
taken under strong guard to Cassvie.
In consequence of the uncertainties Of the
future and unquiet state of the country but a
few are making any preparations to put in crops.
Farms are laid waste and fences burned up along
the main road, and Union men are discouraged
The secessionists have mostly gone South with
their negroes. Some Union people have not only
abandoned the idea of making crops, but are
getting their wagons out, intending ~ forsake all
and emigrate to place of safety.
The wounded are doing well at Cassville. The
court house and all prominent houses are being
used as hospitals, it being fortunate crcum-
stance for them that the owners of the principal
buildings had stampeded from tie town.
On the Sd an expedition, consisting of cavalry
and two mountain howitzers, reconnoitered the
country about Huntsville At the latter place j,
was found that a force of rebel cavalry whom We
intended to bag had made good their retreat.
The flag planted by Gen. Curtis at Kietsville
ruthlessly torn down, but recently
brought in, and when last seen was floating oyel
the Provost Marshals Office at Cassvilie.
