The Union Column at Cumberland
dan.

Probably the few people who ever knew
the fact, have quite forgotten it, that we
have pretty large column OF National
troops i'm East Tennessee-at Cumberland
Gap. When, in the early part OF this year,
the rebels evacuated Bowling Green, and
the various divisions of our troops in Ken
lucky followed them southwark, this col
umn was leftin Southeastern Kentucky, for
, the purpose of capturing the rebel strong
hold at Cumberland Gap-which had been
regarded as probably the most formidable
and valuable strategic Position in the South
and afterwards penetrating into East Ten
nessee. The coluinn remained, doing vari-
GUS work aud with varied fortune, in the
( hilly and desolate regions in Eastern Ken
lucky during the whole of the spring, and
till we'll on in the present summer. At the
beginning of last month it was still II the
northern side of the Cumberland Noun
tains. At length, on the 18th of June, Gen
Morgan, its commander and very able
and gallant officer, obtained possession o.
the long-coveted Cumberland Gap, by one
ofthe most difficult and scientific operations
of the war, but which, on account of the
more Immediately important news we were
at that time receiving from Virginia, was
almost entirely overlooked by the press
He. for time, so unanswered his troops,
that the enemy at the Gap could getno clue
whatever to his purposes; and when
finally, having made terrible march
OF hundred. miles, over mountains here
tofore considered impossible, he fell upon
their rear, they fled in. confusion
and the Southern Thermopyl@, which q
thousand men might have successfully de
= Tended, fell into his hands. It-was univer-
sally supposed by those who had followed uI
Gen. Morgan's movements, and understood
the military and political situation.in that
section of country, that would at once
push on to Knoxville, the capture of which
would have been equivalent to the posses.
sion of nearly. the whole of East Ten.
nessee. The retention of the Gap was o.
vast importance to the rebels, as the means
of keeping us out of East Tennessee; bu
the position once in our hands, it 'Nas O
value only. as the gateway to further, con-
quests. Gen. Morgan, however, with hi!
i whole force still remains at Cumberlant
Gap-a force which, though the rebels over
estimate it when they state 1t to be 20,00(
strong, is yet of very considerable mum
bers, and isamply able, with little of thu
assistance near at hand, to take military
|, possession of all of East, Tennessee. HI
remains there in obedience to orders. nt l'o
We call, attention to hissituation at pres
ent, because, being forbidden to move from
Cumberland Gap, Gen, Morgan's command
| IS placed in imminent danger by the man
euvers of his 'hamesake, the guerrilla Nor
gan. All the supplies of our troops at th,
Gap are drawn through Eastern Kentucky
upon ox-teams, over a hundred miles o
hills, rocks, and ruts, such as cannot b,
found on the continent outside of that rs.
/ zion. Yesterday it was announced by tele
