Hood i'm Middle TCnneS see.

But for the damage done TO Union farmers and
the Union interests of Middle Tennessee, we could
wish that Hood would enter the country with lOO,-
200 desperate rebels and dcvastatc the whole coun-
TRY. Middle Tennessee is full of treason, overrun
with bitter, unrelentng, mean and meddlcsomc
rebels who invite raids and give information They
deserve to be purified "os by fire, and made to feel
the consequences of their vile conduct God send
that Hoods thieves may eat out and consume all
The robel grain meat and forage in that section of
|the State.
meaner class Of men are the pretended Union
men of Middle Tennessee, who are finding fault Of
the administration, complaining of the loss of their
negroes, and who went into the Chicago conspiracy
and associate with and endorse for rebels. They
ought to be sent out of the country and the money
they have been making under the protection of the
Fed eral Government by the sale of their patriotism
ought to be applied to the support of our soldiers
wives and children.

CawOOd's Scouts.

Dr. Cawood, of Jefferson county, has a company
Of Home Guards, in some way authorized by the
Federal authorities. This company is made up, in
part of rebels, and of men who have been in the
rebel service. They are arrssting men and sending
them in here, and they are being imprisoned and
worked upon the Notifications. Some of the men
they arrest deserve to be imprisoned but others of
them are better than those ,cho arrest them. And it
turns out that in some instances the gqir1r-cf rebels
take advantage of their position to pay up old
against Union men.
There is a storm Of Indignation getting up among
the Union men of that county against this company,
and not without cause and the is dsbanded
the better it will be for the service. The company
and its officers are in good standing with the rebels
and even with OsJorn's hieriug scouts This is
enough to open the eyes of Union men to the merits
of that company. 1t is a dangerous organization,
and calculated to render more efficient services for
the rebels than any company under Breckenridge

Hood is reported to have caught bctedt at Co.
lumbia few days ago, in Il fight with Gen Scho-
field Hood is reported TO have lost in killed and
wounded one thousand men, while Schofeld cap
tured three hundred prisoners. Hood has cut the
road between Bridgeport and Murlrccsboro, and
also the wires. Whether he is aiming to get into
East Tennessee or Kentucky is uncertain, but Of one
thing our friends may rest assured and that is that
the sagacious old hero Thomas, is in his rear with
10000 men, and will give him all the exercise
sary for health and comfort Everything is work.

in the end So far rs Knoxville is concerned, it is
perfectly secure, and can't be taken by any force in
the Conicdcracy. We have military men in com
mand in whom we have confidence, and they are
backed up with troops supplies and ammunition
with the best fortfcations in the Union. We not
only have men in command in whose skill and cour,

Dear Travelling.

The officers of the rebel army are beseeching their
supcriors for an increase of pay What they get is,
of course magnificent in comparison with the mis-
cradle stipend of the private soldier, but by the
rapid depreciation Of the currency it has ceased to
be any recompensc for their services. An officer
whose letter read in the rebel Congress the other
day declares that, even when an officer gets Il fur
Tough to go home it is impossible for him to do So if
he lives at distance, without other means than the
Government furnishes him. Thus the writer re-
marks, in a dismal, jolly spirit
How can We who live some six or seven hundred
miles hence afford to pay the rairo charges Ac
cording to present rates Brgadier General month
