arcanAlous for move or fight. Dispatches
from Captain Fu1ler's scouting party, report
frequent small bands Of rebels scouting along
the Cumberland. Twenty appeared at Cum
berland Ford yesterday, and were pursued.
but escaped.
Capt. slough Is reported sick at Williams
burg His Illness Is said to be slight, The
Captain has proved himself most excellent
border commander, and the citizens at VII.
hamsbnrg like him very much as IN executive
officer. Rebel prisoners assert that troops
are collecting on the border in large numbers,
in view Of 4 great invasion. Buckner is In
command Gen. 8. D. McU1ony, Coloucls
Palmer and Gracey seem to be the leading
spirits in East Tennessee, while Morgan and
Wheeler are to operate in Middle Tennessee.
Our lines may be considered the north bank
of the Cumberland,
Prisoners are brought in daily, both Of war
md culprits, under order No. 3s. The court
martini is still In session at Somerset.
4 prisoner who claims to be an Union con.
script familiar with Tennessee, says Buckuer
has.not less than fifty regiments Of Infantry
and cavalry and thirty-six pieces Of artillery in
East Tennessee, preparing for an invasion Of
Kentucky through Cumberland, Pound and
Big Creek Gaps.
On the other hand paroled prisoner direct
from, Knoxville throughl hlCumberland Gap, re-
ports that rebel troops are being pushed to
Murfreesboro in expectation of an immediate
battle with Rosccr1ns. He reports no force
at Knoxville or the Gap and but few cavalry
along the river, merely to watch our moye-
ments. 1t was. reported last evening that
1900 rebel cavalry crossed Cumberland Ford
yesterday and passing to the east of Capt.
Fuller had reached BorboursyIl1e. 4 negro
states they we're two hours in passing. Tele-
graphic communication with London yas
