Condition of affairs at Nashville. --The Murfreesboro' (Tenn.) Banner publishes some information derived from a lady just from Nashville. Gen. Rosecranz, who is in command there, has about 28,000 men under him. The Banner says: The various Addition divisions are distributed as follows; Gen. Still near Lavergne; Gens. Crittenden and Thomas on the Lebanon road, one division, commander unknown, on the Nolensville Pike; and Gen Rousseau's command scattered between Mumfordsville, Ky., and Nashville. The completion of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad has been delayed by the falling in of the tunnel near Gallatin. We imagine that it will cave in pretty soon again if John Morgan has his usual run of inch. The condition of Nashville is represented as deplorable in the extreme. Her loyal citizens are suffering every possible indignity that tyrannous commanders and a brutalized soldiery can heap upon them. The magnificent Capital building has been converted into the

an end. Our readers will recollect the capture of a steamboat by Zarvona, dressed in woman's attire, one of the most brilliant and dashing affairs of the war. For this achievement, which would have excited the admiration of a generous enemy, Colonel Thomas has ever since been kept in solitary confinement in a prison cell, and lately, a little chink in the outer wall, the only one that let in the light of Heaven, has been closed up. For eighteen months has he teen shut out from the free air and ow how to heap upon a gentlemen when they get him in their power. The war has drag gad its slow length along with varying success; the small forces of the Confederacy have swelled to large armies; the first battle of Manassas was fought after Col. Thomas had been sent to prison; the last battle found him still in chains. Multitudes of foemen have bitten the dust; the clangs of the trumpet and the roar of the cannon have filled the whole atmosphere but still the --captive knight" pines in his
