The Herald's Richmond correspondent
says:
Grave difficulties of military character
have transpired in this Department near the
line of Tennessee, in the District of Gen.
n NJ. Curtis. 1t is known that General
Curtis had became appraised Of the existence
Of large number Of cattle in the vicinity OF
the difficulties, belonging to the late rebel
Government and consequently without any
other owners capable Of pretending TO claim
legitimate ownership Gen. Curtis sent a
small force to capture the cattle, and they
were successfully repealed by the bush
whackers and guerrillas Of that scction.-
Col. Sumner has been dispatched to the
scene Of the outrage with an adequate force
and it is certain Maj Gen. Curtis will make
exceedingly short work Of this business.
Within 20 days it is thought that another
arge batch Of general officers will be ordered
to their homes to report to the Adjutant
General of the army by letter.
The impression prevails for good reasons
that from this date no more Generals will
be actually mustered out of the service till
after the next meeting Of Congress.
