coRREsPoN DENCE OF THE VINO

BRISTOL, March IA, 1865
The bold demonstrations Of the detachments OF
General vaughn's cavalry below Knoxville have
changed the entire programme of the enemy. He
has withdrawn his cavalry from this front and
transferred it to the western portion 81 the depart
ment. But two regiments OF infantry and some few
cavalry remain east of Knoxville.
The cavalry under Gillian was ant west for the
purpose Of driving gucrillas and cavalry from,
the vicinity of Athens and Sweet Water, but Union
citizens report that he has been severely defeated
Some Of the infantry that has been in this front
have evidently gone to Thomas. Numbers ii this
command of the enemy have W. tten letters to their
friends, urging them TO "come to Knox vile and
see them, as they were ordered to Thomas, and
would not return soon." -
The engineer troops sent to Strawberry Plains To
reconstruct the railroad to Greenvile has Suddenly
heen withdrawn and sent to Savannah. $50 saws

As there is nothing being done on the railroad,
and troops are leatiIg tho Department, il is eyi

They have collected the principal portion of the

but was forced 10 return because of the high Water
He has also gone west of Knoxville.

The people here have become convinced that the

1t is no longer Estate secret, we believe, that
General Sheridan aud his raiders came within lit
teen or twenty miles OF the city, last week, pro
duced one of those periodical bell ringings, which
only serve to alarm timd women and children, and
after resting his force, escaped with them to the
\ ankee lines, below Richmond It's the same old
story, and we do not care 10 repeat it in detail
The raiders approach the city on the west, force
is sent. to meet them they dodge this force, aud
the next thing heard ofthem is, they have gone :"
The officers in command hero seem to ignore the
lessons Of experience, apparently prefer to give
raiding parties an opportunity to escape. The on
~ way in which these raiders can be punished is to
Richmond. 1t is useless to send troops to ,aeeI
them tor they will not consent to meeting, when
they can so easily avoid one.
FROM THE SOUTH SIDE.
The Petersburg EErpreSS Of Saturday says that
the quiet on the lines in that vicinity renrains un
broken. Whenever Grant moves he will find every.
thing in readiness on our pert to meet him. Our
army awaits his movements with perfect confidence
and will give him reception he may net be pre-
pared to meet.

The wharves are extensive, and the place in all re-
ssects Is so changed as to render 1t scarcely recog
