duly reported that capture Of toe men,
horses and arms and equipments to
General Bragg, who ordered that 81 the
captured property should be turned in 10
the proper officer Of the army. But
FORESTS men had acted on the principle
that the spoils Of wat belong to The vic
tor, and General Bragg's supply officers
received but few contributions from For.
rests fortunate operation, and Van
Dorm was instructed to call him to &C.
count and enforce obedience to the order
Of the general commanding the army.
Accordingly Van Dorm sent for Gen
Forrest and sternly asked bin Why be

Forrest replied: Because l haven

"Treu," said Van Dorm, =" your pres.

Forrest replied: General Van Dom

10 this way aud | won't allow it-anC
when the time comes that your ranl
won't interpose, you shall answer to me
for this, sir"
General Forrest my rank shall never
stand between me and any man who
feels aggrieved by me, and / EN- at YOU

Forrest paused a moment, passed hi,
hand across his forehead, and said.
General Van Dorm, there are enongl
Yankees for you and me to fight witbon.

can afford to let this matter ston riob
here. IN sorry | spoke to O AZ

Van Darn said cordially, Genera
Forrest, | am very glad to hear vol
speak so, and assure you | shall neve
again think of your words-no man wi.
ever question your readiness to fight An
man or any thing. But general, 80 Ion
as you are under my command | sha

: thus ended the most remarkable collisio
that ever occurred between two of tn
bravest men in the world. Each conf
dent in his W courage, and we'll know
iuE that Ct the other, we're the only tw
living men who could afford to settle
} controversy thus.
Van Dorm then turned TO Forrest an
said: General, | have work for 70
I. right now and sent him of in pursu0
Of a raiding column of Colonel Siraigh

These gallant men never met again

GuAthNl0fk LlnNo
Ga Thursday last Mr.. c G Thurmond
purchased a list Of cotton from Mr.. S B
McCutchea, one bale of which weighed
something over 900 pounds. The size
and weight OF the bale led the purchaser
to suspect that there was something rot
ten in Denmark Yesterday an autopsy
Of the Aforesaid bale was made 10 the
warehouse Of Messrs, Hicks & Howell,
wheh it Eas discovered that the bale,
which a. plated With beautiful cotton
on all sides to the depth of about four
inches, was filled with about 400 pounds
Of sand and abeut the same amount Of
rotten cotton. The latter was so badly
damaged tia. it was entirely worthless
for any purposes whatever. The Gotten
was shipped to Mr.. McCutchen By a
merchant aud an honorable gentleman
in Texas, who had purchased it from a
farmer in bis vicinity. Fer audscity and
bold raseality this certainly takes the
