You know that an not the officer of 'th,

.oners captured here are 150 officers. Lieut..
Gen. Dick Taylor made his escape on a
steamboat. N. B. Forrest Dan Adams,
Roddy, Armstrong and Grassland, under
cover of the darkness, reached swamp
east of the city and eluded capture. Off
GERS comprising their stats were taken.
FORESTS ordnance officer, Capt. Bond, re-
ports Forrest as wounded in two places in
the arm.
Croxton and McCook attacked Jackson
lin front and rear at Tryon, but having trav-
Ieled by widely different roads their attacks
.were not simultaneous, else he must have
been destroyed.
The destruction of the Centerville bridge

toward Tuscaloosa, rendered it utterly inn
possible for Forrest to carry out his plans.
.Cahawba capitulated yesterday, and about
20 of our prisoners, confined there for
long time, were released. They had been
well treated. .t..,
