forward you such items as think may be 49,
est to you. As informed you in my last, We broke
camp and started on Wednesday, I'D, and so have
been three days on the march. 1t will not be i'm
proper this time for me to state to you that the
objective points of this rdd in conjunction
with other movements of which you are aware,
are Selma, Montgomery and Mobile, aud we are
now en- route direct for Tuscaloosa. This army con-
sists of thee divisions, viz First Division, undeI
command of Maor-General Ell. McCo0k; Second.
commanded by Major General Ely Long, and the
Fourth, under command OF Ma General Emory
linton. These compose the divisions now on the
march, but they will be joined by General
Hatch's (Ffth) Division, now at PASSPORT, being
mounted and equipped. Kilpatrick's Division (noH
with Sherman) also belongs to this corps the whole
being under the immediate command of Major
General Wilson, in the military department OF Gen
eral Thomas.
Wemarched twenty -four miles the first day, ant
have averaged about fifteen miles each day since
The roads in some places were very bad, and as W.
are encountered with artillery and pontoon trains
We cannot travel very rapidly. At Cherokee, d.
teen miles from Chickasaw, several houses of III
Rebels were destroyed aud some prisoners taken
The Memphis and Charleston Railroad run
through this place, and il has formerly been ver'
thriving little village. Now, however, it is alncf
entirely deserted and nothing but RUNS mark ia
place where Cherokee was. So it Is with ever
little village through which we pass. Nothing =

We return once more to the Report oi the
Naval Ordnance Board, in which there is still
much, not yet considered, of public interest and

premature explosion OF shells for the bursting
Of guns:

they arc exceptional cases.
How compressed powder" causes guns to
