Correspondence Of the Nashville Union
HEADQUARTERS So TENNESSEE CAVALRY
Camp Catlett, Tenn, May 9, 1864
In yesterdays UNION appeared a long
correspondence By Young Soldier, "
one Of your army correspondents, which
did Us, East Teanesseans, great injus-
tice.
He spoke Of there being no loyalty or
fidelity in East Tennessee, which the
world knows is a mistake. There is,
according to population, as many men
from East Tennessee in the United States
army as from any other State.
If he had have spoken Of the'aristoc-
racy Of Knoxville having no loyalty or
fidelity about it, it would do, but he in
cludes all East Tennessee.
Now, do not claim any honors that
are not due us, utsimply claim justice
It disheartens our soldiers for such
pieces TO be published, and on that ac-
count, is injurious to the service.
I do not know how the citizens Of
East Tennessee, that are at home, are,
but do know that the soldiers are very
near unanimously in tavor Of emancipation.
We have held firm to the Union, not
withstanding the rebels kept squads OF
troops al over our country, and when
we came to the Federal lines we had to
run through their pickets, scouting par
ties, etc, after night, and when any OF
our men were captured, it was as good
as instant death And since that time
there has been a powerful battle fought
in our country, between two great con-
tending armies, which has taken nearly
all our families means of support. We
have asked permission to 90 to their re
lief but the authorities thought it bet
ter that we should stay here, and, with
out grumbling, we submit, and trust to
Providence for the protection of those
that are the nearest and dearest to us.
l hope you will pardon me for adj
dressing you in this manner, but sever
al of the boys have plead at me to an
swer the piece, claiming that injustice
was done them, and that the Northern
people did not care fig for them, etc,
until consented to do this much.

We have had frequent intimatloi S
that mysterious movements were in
progress among the departments at
Richmond, looking to their removal
somewhere-perhRps TO Columbia, South
Carolina The Richmond Examiner Of
the 26th ult, and the Petersburg Ex-
press Of the following day, noticed the
departure for Columbia, South Carolina,
Of one hundred and thirty ladies en-
ployed in their Treasury Department,
as is alleged, on account of the dear
ness Of provisions. But the Wing comes
nearer the truth when it insists upon
Kidding Richmond Of all non-combat-
ants, and that there may be as few
mouths Of non-combatants TO feed a.
possible. 1t says: That q great strug
gle IS about TO take place, for the pos
session Of Richmond is conceded GA al
hands. What, then, becomes the
duty Of the people of Richmond, il
vew Of the mighty conaictat nand? 1t
IS evidently the same as that of the
commander of man-ofwar who sails
out of port to engage the foes Of his
flag in mortal combat The decks are
cleared for action, non-combatants are
ordered below or ashore, the supply Of
ammunition and food Is looked TO, and
a short prayer uttered that Heaven
viii favor the right, and protect the
land and the loved ones for whom the
battle is waged." But it Is not the
female emplo. . IS alone who have been
removed The Enquirer informs US
that "fhe removal Of several branches q the
oaJinet departments to tie South produces
several vacancies in the battalion com
posed of clerks and other employees OF
the Government" and the Sentinel
protests that there is danger Of carry
ing too far the policy of transferring
the civil officers of the Government to
other points.
From little scraps of this nature, we
gather the fact that all the archives OF
the rebel government have been sent
South; and that nothing is left.but a
military headquarters in Richmond.
Are not these indications that the
rebels have very little faith in their
ability to hold their capital? But it Is
no time now to speculate; solution OF
the problem is at hand

The MARYLAND Convention.

The Union Members ofthe Maryland
State Convention, 81 in number, being
about two thirds Of that body, recently
held a Convention, and agreed upon the
following resolution:
Resolved, That this Conference
unanimously accept the policy of In
mediate Emancipation without State
Compensation as the instruction of the
late election, and that we will, in this
respect faithfully represent the ex
pressed viii OF the people Of Maryland "
That is going TO work in earnest
The constitution will speedily be
amended in accordance with the above
resolution.

Comforting the Enemy By Lying.

We all recollect the nature ana eH'
tent of the hopes the rebels based upon
the supposition that our armies would
dissolve this spring and could not be
recruited. We have quoted numerous
extracts from their journals on the
subject, evincing the hopes and feais
entertained on the subject, in the
clearest terms and these have not yet
been forgotten
But that delusion vanished, ike ali
the others tenaciously Rugged by the
herabels They saw our veterans re
enlisting; and new recruits by thous
ands going 70 the field, and they DIES
paired of the dissolution Of our armies,
so confidently hoped for. They saw in
the alacrity with which recruits were
obtained, an exhibition of patriotism
which augured a final triumph TO the
national cause, causing them to tremble
like a host of Belshazzers.
But while they were thus reading
another word of admonition added to
the handwriting on the wall, the cop
perhead press of the loyal States, steps
in, and urges them not to be alarmed
as the enthusiasm Of the people has
died out, and there is yet hope for the
rebellion Here are few specimens to
the point:
The one hundred-days' men in Indi
ana are not very numerous. We have
seldom read of earnest appeals meeting
with less success In the early history
of the rebellion, men in Indiana flocked
to camp for three years without much
effort and with small bounties, or no
bounties. Now it requires large boun-
ties for one hundred-days' militia

laid aside the obligations and the accustomed
pleasures Of party, the better to aid in sup

meeting for consultation which they propose

sallant Exploit of 1t. Earle, of the 18th
WiSe0nsin---An Important Capture.
LUorreSp ondence OF the New York Hers Il. !
NEW ORLEANS, La. Oct. IL. 1864

NEW ORLEANS, La. Oct II, 1864.
( On Saturday last while Lieut. Earle, of the
Fourth Wisconsin cavalry, was scouting with
/ a number of his men above Natchez and in
the neighborhood of ST. Joseph, he discovered
party of eight or ten rebels. They proved
to be the advance of large body of cavalry,
and had in their charge twelve battle flags
and regimental colors, captured from our
forces in the Red river campaign. They
were conveying them to Richmond. With
the party was also rebel mail carrier, with
very important mail The instant that
Lieut.. Earle and his scouts saw the enemy he
approached as closely as possible without be-
ing discovered, and then rode into their
midst and demanded their surrender. The
rebels were taken completely by surprise.
When they saw the little band bearing down
upon them they took no notice, supposing it
to be detachment from the main body.
They party surrendered without firing shot,
and the flags and mail fell into our hands en-
tire. 1t was glorious capture, for in addi-
ton to the valuable news which was contain
ed in the mall we saved our flags from being
taken to Richmond as trophies and Teasing
the eyes and cheering the hearts of those
who have given up all hope of ever gaining
another.
The officer ia major) in charge of the flags
shed tears when he discovered that they had
fallen into the hands of the Yankees, and cast
many an anxious glance to the rear to see if
the guard were coming to his rescue; but
they came not, and the gallant major and his
fellow prisoners were marched quietly into
the woods, and in due time the mail and flags
were placed in the hands of Major General
Candy. .... ,...
Lieutenant Earle is gallant fellow. From
the time that he was promoted from a pri-
vate by Gen. Banks for distinguishing himself
at the siege of Port Hudson to the present
time he has been one of the most brave and
energetic officers in the service. He has met
with several hairbreadth escapes, has been
captured and has escaped, has swan the Mis-
sissippi while the bullets from the rifles of
the rebels were striking the water all around
him, and has done many daring and wonder
full feats. No officer promoted during this
war deserved it more than Lieutenant Earle.
CONTENTS OF THE REBEL MAIL
Nearly every letter in the rebel mail speaks
despondingly of the rebel cause. To give
you some idea Of their tone, will give you
an extract from one written from Marshal,
Texas, by Captain Temple, connected with
the Ordnance Bureau. 1t is dated September
%: "The people in this country" (beyond
the Mississippi care mighty weak in the
knees-indeed they are weak all over. II
the people on yoaf' side" (of the Mississippi
" are givjng acay as they are here, we are gone

Another Old Democrat Bolts.

Another old and we'll known Democrat re-
fuses to act with the cessationists. The name
of SIDNEY L. ROOD of Milwaukee, was pub
lished as one of the Vice Presidents of the
recent MCCLELLAN mass meeting there, in the
Ne1Us' account Of the demonstration Where
upon Mr.. ROOD writes the following letter.:
ED. News 1t appears from the published
proceedings of the so called democratic gath
ering of last Saturday evening, that | was
announced as one Of the Vice Presidents. As
had no previous warning that such prefer
ment was in store for me, | had no opportu-
ity to decline. 1t is now in my power to re-
podiate it.
If democracy means what it used to-de-
votiOn to the whole country, and an infexi-
BILE purpose to crush out all resistance to the
laws, and uphold the national unity and hon
or, by force and blood, if necessary, I am a
democrat; but if such be the character of de-
mocracy,-what party do they belong to, who
surrounded by rebels in arms, sue for peace,
an armistice, or a convention to secure to
rebels, what they have been unable to con-
Quer by force. When the rebels sue for peace,
it will be time for the Government to c0nsid-
er it; but during the continuance of the re-
belliOn by force, or actual war, for the Gov
eminent to entreat them to let US alone,
would be a degree of abasement and coward
ice, that would disgrace US forever; and for
that reason, [ cannot believe such policy to
be democratic. At all events, | do not wish
to be the Vice President, or President, OF
any Convention, called to sympathize or CO.
operate with treason.
