A gentleman from MurfreesbOrO in
forms us that Gen. Breckenridge came to
Readyville on last Thursday, with some
two hundred cavalry, after he had ascer-
tanned the departure of Col. Hogan's
force. He strutted about quite valor-
Ously, and captuEed an old army horse
which had given out, and had been
abandoned. He then started for Wood
bury, but meeting on the way a squad of
twenty of Wilder's command, who were
out scouting, wheeled and fled precipi-
lately, our mon pursuing him for some
distance. He no doubt supposed that
WildePs whole force was close at hand,
and probably had unpleasant visions of
trial for treason, and the halter. He
reached McMinnville last Sunday.
Our correspondent stated that gen.
tleman who left Manchester on Sunday,
told him that ii was reported there that
Bragg had only two brigades at Tulla-
homa. The fact that he made no effort
to guard the Gaps, would indicate that
the great bulk of his army had left. It
was reported that the Tennessee and
Kentucky troops were DESERVING and
scattering among the hills. They long
ago vowed that they would never be
marched again out Of Tennessee, and are
greatly incensed at the refusal of Bragg
to give battle. If the rebel General has in
deed withdrawn his forces from this
State, there can be no doubt that their
efficiency is greatly impaired and their
spirits and confidence much broken. he
may, however, determine TO make re-
distance at Chattanooga, and try the for
tunes Of war in the most fierce and pro-
longed of all tho battles fought in
Tennessee.
General Rosecrans found large guam
tity of wheat stacked at Manchester
which had been collected by Bragg for
his army. Some threshing- machines
were soon impressed from the rebe
farmers, and the grain cleaned out fol

The Chattanooga Rebel seems to place
almost as much reliance upon Vallandig-

him manfully, and talks Of "throwing

Is IL not rather surprising that so notO-

the present Democratic organization in

rhs New Commando

Major General George Meade, the new
commander of the Army Of the Poto-
mac, was distinguished at the battle of
Palo Alto, and brevetted Tor gallant con-
duct in several conflicts at Monterey. He
is of Virginia parentage, and was born
in Spain while his father was minister to
that country. He was made Brigadier
General early during the present war in
HOoker's division on the peninsula. On
that officer being assigned 70 the command
of a corps, he was promoted to the COM
mand of division, and when General
Hooker took command of the Army, he
was again put II command of the corps.
He now succeeds Gen. Hooker in COM
mand of the army, which we devoutly
pray may be more fortunate under him
than under his predecessor.
