Missionary Ridge, Tenn. (Tennessee, United States) (search for this): article 2
From Chattanooga. [from our Own Correspondent.] Army of Tennessee. Missionary Ridge, Nov. 19th. Nothing has occurred here since the date of my last communication deserving of notice. It is not considered improbable, however, in official circles, that the enemy will make a movement of some kind in the next few days. There can he no doubt that Sherman will have arrived with his entire force at Stevenson or Bridgeport by the end of the week, and it is not to be supposed that Gen. Graruel treatment at last. This last question the soldier must decide for himself, the commanding General having done his duty in placing it before him. Sallust. Exchange of prisoners — Corder of Gen. Bragg.

The application was never presented to the President, but was suppressed as soon as it was discovered that only a few officers regarded it with favor. I had not thought it necessary to contradict the official and newspaper reports in the United States of the capture of a forage train in Lookout Valley belonging to Longstreet's corps; but, lest some of our own people be deceived by the constant reiteration of the reports, I would now state that the whole thing is a willful fabrication.

General Order, No. 208.-- That the enemy do not intend to carry out in good faith the cartel agreed on between his Government and the Confederate States for the exchange of prisoners of war, has long been demonstrated by his acts, and is now officially recognized. Such a cruel proceeding, so opposed to the laws of humanity and enlightened civilization, is a virtual acknowledgment by th

ed in the written application for a change in the command of the Army of Tennessee, and that one of these, upon fuller information, expressed his regret that he had done so. The application was never presented to the President, but was suppressed as soon as it was discovered that only a few officers regarded it with favor. I had not thought it necessary to contradict the official and newspaper reports in the United States of the capture of a forage train in Lookout Valley belonging to Longstreet's corps; but, lest some of our own people be deceived by the constant reiteration of the reports, I would now state that the whole thing is a willful fabrication. If any forage wagons were captured they were only one or two that had been disabled and left behind. The following important order in regard to the exchange of prisoners has just been promulgated by Gen. Bragg. While he does not propose to resort to extreme measures, it will be seen that he places the question fairly befor
sity of the order will be apparent upon the statement of a single fact within my own knowledge, viz: That a detailed man in one of the departments mentioned above keeps three horses, and yet is not entitled to keep one. If the order had gone further, and cut down the allowance of mounted men at division headquarters to half a dozen couriers, it would have been all the better. Since the subject has been alluded to in the public prints there can be no impropriety in stating that Major-Generals Cheatham and Buckner, and Brigadier-General Forrest, have been relieved of their commands in this army at their own request. It is said that Gen. Bragg had recommended an extension of the command of Gen. Buckner at a time when the latter was promoting a movement to have him removed from the command of this army. It is not improbable that Gen. Buckner will reconsider his application and return to his former command. In the meantime Brigadier-Generals Wharton and Martin, who were content to

In the meantime Brigadier-Generals Wharton and Martin, who were content to remain at their posts and discharge their duty in the positions in which the President and Commander-in-Chief thought they could be most useful, have been promoted and made Major Generals of cavalry.
