"Every few days man with heavy

Hcian, would come over with a basket
containing several hundred dollars worth
Of quarter dollars aud gold pieces, for
the purpose of exchanging them for

Negro ssIalers in Tennsssee.

The Decherd correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette writes:
A few days ago an order was issued
from department headquarters at Win
chester, ordering the immediate orgsni-
cation Of the negroes in the army into
regiments, TO DO armed and equipped and
mustered into the service. This work is
now being done as rapidly as possible,
and will shortly have about seven or eight
regiments of contrabands in the field.
At Nashville, two regiments are being
organized out of the men who have been
for two years at work on the defences of
that city. About 1900 men have thus
been mustered into service at Nashville,
and one or two paraaes have been had.
Here at the front the regiments are yet
skeletons, but are rapidly growing to be
strong and important reinforcements 20
this army. All contrabands in the army
not personal servants of officers, are be-
ing gathered together for these regi-
ments. The men go in willingly There
is no necessity for impressipg them.
