CAPTURE OF Four HUNDRED Factory

Of the Cincinnati Commercial, writing from
lsham's Ford, Geo, on the llth, says The
same day on which the 23d corps effected
the crossing OF the river. tthc sth,) Col
Garrard also crossed at Roosevelt but about
an hour later than this corps. Having
marched rapidly the day before upon the
large cotton factory at that point he took
it altogether by surprise, destroying vast
quantity of army canvass. which was eX-
tcnsively manufactured there, and taking
captive 400 factory girls
The later capture was certainly novel

Challenge Extraordinary.

We find the following challenge for II RegmentuL
Duet in the Nashville papers. We are in favor Of
the fight, if the military authorizes will allow it to
come of. We believe the First Tennessee Cavalry
can whip any regiment in the rebel army. Indeed,
We know half dozen Tennessee regiments that can
do the same thing
II is due TO the Colonel Of the First to state that
his letter from which the offensive paragraph is Ia
ken was private and published without his lnowl-
edge or consent We nevertheless believe the state
ment.
Hart is Il man Of bad character, and s denounced
BY rebels rs sncakng horse-thef The rules Of
aueing would forbid that a gentleman meet such
q man in conflict But We must waive this ohjec-
ton, or cease to fight the rebel forces Hart is as
good man as JEFF Davis, and both are dt repre-
sentative of the morality and integrity Of the Con-
fcderacy

COLONEL In perusing the columns Of the
Weekly Knoxville Wing of the 29th ultimo l
find the following paragraph of letter written by
yourself to a friend, at which | take exceptions:
II can whip twice my number anywhere. This
may look q little like boastng, but am willing to
take the contract
challenge you to prove the assertion, but will
not require you to bring into the field greater mum
Der than that of my regiment, and | will not select
the men, but fight the whole regiment and in its
present organization.
You may choose the ground upon which your as
sertion is TO be proven, that ii be free from TIM
ber and other shelter, and between or on either flank
of the two armies. We will fight dismountcd, with
Enfield rifles, bayonet. n1ed, and two army or navy
pistols TO the man.
Having fought YOU several times | consider You,
Colonel, a foeman worthy of my steel, otherwise
this challenge would not have been written.
