The Daily Dispatch: May 28, 1863., [Electronic resource], General Scott on the income tax. (search)
Rosecrans's army. --A correspondent of the Chattanooga Rebel has got information from a person just from Nashville. This person states' that Rosecrans "practiced a handsome deception on the citizens for weeks, by stealthily marching troops in various directions towards Kentucky during the night, and marching them to the city in the day time, with an air of weariness and a parade of transportation, by constantly shifting encampments, to induce the belief that he was being heavily reinforced. This ruse succeeded like a charm, and gave birth to the many extravagant rumors of troops pouring into Nashville. Upon careful inquiry my informant was confident that in addition to the accessions of small parties of stragglers, the army at Nashville had received only one body of reinforcements known as Cox's division. The strength of this did not exceed an ordinary brigade."
