FROM THE CUMBERLAND ARMY.
AN ALARM AT BRIDGEPORT.
Importance Of the Place;
THE ARTILLERY BRIGADE.
Correction in Regard to Captain
De Beck.
[OOrrespOndence of the cleveland Leader.l

BRIDGEPORT, February 25i 1854.
Rumors had been rife here for several
days to the effect thst Morgan, with his
division Of cavalry was moving down Sc
qustchie Valley, perspicuOusly to attack
this place in the rear, while Claiborne,
with a division Of picked infsntry was
marching from the South, towards McLs-
mOre's Gap, to operate in conjunction with
Morgan. Adispstch from General Hook
er confirmed the prevalent report, which
had already gained considerable Credence.
General Gesry at once put every avsilsbls
man on the Notifications, and ordered the
artillery, which was stationed beyond the
outposts, to take position near the bridge
all government property was collected fol
protection. The whole day and night
men labOred unremittingly on the en-
trenchmsnts, and the srtillerymsn stood
suIle y at their posts. The morning
dswned bright and beautiful, but did moi
bring the expected attack. Still we are
kept lounging around our pieces, on this
the 9th.
The importance Of this post is beyond
computation, when we take into consider
alton the immense bridge over which sup
plies pass for our armies at Knoxville snC
Chattanooga, and if destroyed, it would re
auire months to rebuild it, besides wholly
severing our lines On the stocks are fvt
new s Gamers nearly completed, -four steam
saw-mills, a vast amount Of machinery
ordnance and qusrtermsster's stores, ant
artillery enough to supply an ordinar!
department.

ARTILLERY BRIGADE.


A short distance west Of the group Of
squalid, smoke tinged tents that consti-
tute the delectsble borough Of Bridgeport
rises q pretty eminence, neatly capped
with walnut and elm bearing mistletoes,
where can be seen shining through the in
terstices Of the variegated forest, the white
canvas and snug shsnties Of the Artillery
Brigade, casting Of four Eastern and
Edeerton aN4 Hackman's Ohio batteries,
commended by Major Lawrence, who eVi-
denced his usual good juegment in select
ing this beautiful spot for winter quarters.
The neatness Of the parks and adjacent
grounds is obviously the reason Of 80 lit
tie sickness prevailing during the winter.
CAPTAIN Hsckman with fifty men Of his
battery, who have re enlisted, is in honrly
expectation Of receiving his furloughs.-
As soon as they arrive, he will start for
| Cleveland. In this connection it may not
be improper to correct an erroneous
statement made in a previous letter re-
earding Captain DeBeok, based on what
I deemed reliable authority. 1t is but am
pie Justice to say that Captain DeBeck &C.
lively participated in the battle Of Chan
cellorville, and in all prior ones in which
his battery was engaged, at all times with
credit to himself Sergesnts A. Reigler
and VIM. H. Manning, will leave Edger-
toms Battery soon, with sixteen vetersni-
zed youths in Lorsin and Cuyshogs coun-
ties, for thirty shctt days.
MAJOR ". Z. LAWRENCE,
Of the First Ohio Artillery, commanding
a brigade here, will start for his home in
Cleveland shortly, on stwanty day leave.
TheMsjor discharged tbs arduous duties Of
Chief of Artillery on the staff Of General
Thomas for nearly two years. with distin-
guished ability, taking an active and eff
feient part in sll the battles from Mill
Springs to Mission Ridge. His sedulOus
devotion to duty, and genial efability, on
every occasion, has gained for him troops
of friends, whose best wishes follow him to
his home. LEAAH.
