diana, Ledger Of the 25th, has the following:
We were this morning shown dispatch re-
coiyed by gentleman in the Quartermaster' 5
Department ia 81. LOUIS, from Division Quar-
temaster at LEBANON which stated that Gen.
Buel S army mad started on forced marches for
Nashville, Tenn, which place 1t expected to
reach by Tuesday of next week The army
was moving without tents or ex ra tqulpage,
taking with them cooked rations sufficient Tor
i've days march. This information we de-
ryed from source which we deem entitled to
the highest credit
Inform .ton was received by Gen. Buell. some
days ago winch Enthusiastically develop the pur-
poses of the enemy tn mass all his forces IN
Tennessee nd Mississippi with Bragg's army,
ior an ea.Iy attack On Nashville. This infor-
nation, sg learn, was transmitted by Gems.
Grant and NegIey. If this report be true, it
gives us key to the evacuation by or troops
Of Bolivar, Cornth and other points In Tennes-
see and Mississippi, and we may soon expect TO
hear of ten Grants army beng on the march
in the direction Of Nashville
The rebels under Van Dorm, Price, Breckn-
ridge and other officers in Mississippi and Ten
nessee have force Of about $4,000 men.
These i0ned to Braggs forces would give an
army in Middle Tennessee Of not less than
$50 000,
| IL is evident that the cause of the conled-
crate. is giowug desperate under the blows that
their arms nave lately received in Mississippi,
Bragg's disastrous retreat from Kentucky, and
the terrible scarcity Of food and clothing for
their armies. The rebels are now driven to the
last extremity. We may therefore calculate on
great battle somewhere 10 the vicinity OF
Nashville
We do not TO, moment doubt that General
Buell. will relch Nashville before the rebel
armies will have line to invest that city.
Bragg retreat from Kentucky is one OF the
most disastrous blows which the rebel Conied-
eracy have received. 1t is now ascertained be-
yund question that he escaped almost as empty
handed as he entered the State. Beyond Grab
Orchard hc burned at one time $500 bhls. OF
pork, over loco bbls. OF -four, and 700 wagons.
This information we have from an unlmpeach-
able source
From Tuesday of last week to Monday Of
this week Bragg was so closely pressed by Crit.
teuden that he was compelled To destroy most OF
the stores remaining. Beside this our army re-
captured most OF the cattle and other stock
stolen, which he was attempting to drive out oil
