took the Elk River road; between two hundred and three hundred took the road leading to Florence. The others fled in every direction. Scott's cavalry and transportation train crossed the river on the twelfth. The rebel force which had been concentrated at this point, consisted of seven regiments and battalions of cavalry, under command of Colonel Acting Brig.-Gen. Adams, numbering between two and three thousand. I deem it a duty to refer in complimentary terms to the marked efficiency of Cols. Stark-weather and Hambright, Major Ousley, Captain Jennings and Lieut. Sypher. The endurance and gentlemanly bearing of their respective commands deserves especial notice, a large portion of their troops having marched seventy-five miles in less than three days time. While we failed to chastise the enemy, as was expected, we have added another instance of disgraceful flight. With every consideration of respect, I am yours, very truly, J. S.

Doc. 180.-fight near Kinderhook, Tenn. General Negley's report. headquarters U. S. Forces, Columbia, Tenn., August 11, 1862--3 P. M. my movement against the guerrillas who have committed the late outrage has been completely successful. Major McGowan, in command of the Third Kentucky cavalry and First Tennessee cavalry, numbering one hundred and eight men, engaged one hundred and seventy-five of the enemy, near Kinderhook, at five A. M., continuing the contest fiercely for four hou. Seven were found killed, and a large number were wounded. Twenty-seven prisoners were captured, among which are a number of officers. Our loss was three killed. The woody and broken character of the country, and the combatants being scattered, prevents an actual estimate of the enemy's loss. I have received news from Major S. H. Kennedy, of my staff, commanding another portion of the expedition. He is driving the enemy in every direction. Jas. S. Negley, Brigadier-General Commanding.
