NASHVILLE, April IT, 1868.

NASHVILLE, April IL, 1863.
On the 7lh inst. --, of Col.
SHELLY's 9th Tenn. Infantry, left Ham
ilton county, Tenn and reports great
restitution in that quarter. He arrived
at his house, near Harrison, about the
30th Of March, and the frst thing which
caught his attention in the way of news,
was in the Cleveland Banner, under a
flaming heading, as follows:
Murfrees borough Evacuated! The
Yankees making for the Ohio. Wheel
er's Cavalry had been four miles beyond
Murfreesborough without getting sight Of
the Yankees. That Rosecrans had
burned up every thing he could not pack
of, &c.
This glorious news was copied by the
Chattanooga Re6s, and other papers. OF
course this made cur scout feel a little
ticklish at the idea Of having to go back
to the Ohio to get with bis regiment.
But he concluded he would examine a
little further about dates, Sc. He found
that all this should have taken place be-
fore the 20th Of March, the day before
he left camps at MurGreesborough OF
course he knew what credit to give the
report. This monstpsus Munchausen
story was actually necessary TO keep
their troops in the field, who are without
doubt, in q starving condition.
The rebel leaders pretended that they
could not understand the movement, IN
less it was a feint movement 10 order to
draw their troops on, or il might be a
flank movement by some other route.
These pretences are urged to give color
ing to the main point--lbe evacuation OF
MurfreesboIo.
Some three weeks ago, a meeting was
held in Cleveland, Tenn, to devise ways
and means TO support the army, ia the
progress Of which, a certain Reverend
gentleman by the name Of GlDDEoSs
made a speech, in which he advocated
the propriety Of Isairg he ,0onaea and A Z
drsa stafve, IN oydey to feed The army.
Strange to say, one Of the meanest men
in the county, Bill Brown, opposed the
proposition. Cora is IS 90 per bushel
dour S75 to Sl25 per barrel, powder 80.
cents per ounce, q mime $50 per ounce,
common gun caps 10 cents each. The
deslituiion in the army was truly alarm
ing. The women are going TO the army
with provisions for their husbands aud
sons to keep them from starving. A
young man who lives 10 Hamilton county
wrote to his father, while our scout was
at his house, t, send him something 10
eat, that he bad not tasted meat for
twenty days. Truly, they are getting
their rights. Aud 10 think that our
wives apd children are there TO
be robbed aud starved by these
rebels is too bad. We have en-
dured many things have suffered
much, and We are ready, willing, and
anxious 10 endure more hardships and
suffering for our country but when we
are told that our wives and children are
actually starving and that too ia eonse.
quenoe of being robbed by the rebels, wo
feel like something ought 20 be done TO
relieve them Other people may talk
about their devotion aud self sacrificing
patriotism, but when il comes to stand
ing firmly by our c%olors, while wife and
children arc starving, II becomes a little
more serious than mere talk.

others still more AL aliinE would il DO

This comment of the leading organ of their
British allies did not make the most favorable
impression upon the French. The replies OF
their journals arc very ill.hu!rored, and the
Cou, fitutioanel thinks that England intends to
intrigue again against the completion Of the ca
nal. It is moreover announced that MIR. Les
scps. the originator and director OF the Suez Ca
nal Company, in report recently submitted 10
the General Assembly Of the stockholders, In
sisted very determinedly that the original agree,
ment was made between the Government OF
Egypt and the Suez Canal Company, that any
change in the agreement could be made only
with the consent Of these two parties and tha'
the concessions made by the Pasha OIL Egyp'
were within the limit of his right, and did not
require the sanction Of the Turkish Government.
1t is, of course, supposed that Mr.. Lcsseps'
beforc taking this stand, was assured OF the III
tention of the French Government. Thus we
may expect new difficulties between England
and France, and it is certainly not LITTLE anus
ing to see these two Powers embarking in a--at
least diplomatic--war on the question whether
the Pasha of Egypt was authorized or not to
make certain concessions to a canal company.
The interest shown by both the great Powers
of Europe in this controversy may be taken,
however, as proof of what immense importance
the canal, when completed, will be to the
world
