Correspondence Of the Cincinnati Gazette.1
MrRFHEEsEoEo, Tenn, Sept. s. 1851.
I wrote you last from the little secession
town OF Manchester, but the lack OF ln1il fl
cilities renders it doubtful whether nv lette
ever reached its destination.
The days t1at have in;erventd since th'
date of the aforesaid letter bare been stirrin1
ONES to the grand army Of the Ohio. On Sun
CAY last the army of Gen. Crittcnden reached
Manchester, and the next day passed on tt
this place. Ou Monday. Gen ScAoepff, nos
commanding Gen. Thou1ss' old division, CAM
UP and passed On to this place On Wednes
day, Gen. McCouk, with his splendid corps
came up from Pelhorn, and On Thursda,
csMe forward.
Your readers have ere this, doubtless, bee1
advised that general movement OF the ara1,
uEder Buell. WIS taking place. Wirhou: goiui
into details, I may say that this point Is bu
the advanced liue Of the Union army in Ten
EeEsee. To MY knowledge no troops occup,
any point In advance Of us, ond all the terri
.ory from Battle Creek to Decatur, won, COZ
quertd and possessed by the third diyisf, IN
under Gen Alische1, is now in the hands O
the enemy--and Jet the withdrawal Of troop
gees on. Is the army to stop at Nashville, .
IS the capital Of Tennessee to be inSlosiousl,
su,rerdtrd? is an every day question. NJ
one can tell
The work of six months is thrown away
All the railroads, bridges, roads and forts
constructed during ali that time at such q,
in.nt nee cost, are turned over to JEFF. Davis
But even tllis terrible sacrifice is not SO heart
,eDdipg as is another view Of our troubles
