She construction of bridges, the column sgsin
changed its fronl and advanced in the direction

suggested that Gen. Thomas has advised Gen.

sherman is moving into Middle Tennessee, there
to swat events. This IS not a very probable
conjecture, and should rot cause g moments

they reach points where they can be seriously
m~issbisveus.
