er of our gallant Gen. Forrest, resulting, as might be expected, in the death of the Yankee. Forrest is an infirm man, so much so that his limbs are contracted, and it is with difficulty that he can get about even upon crutches. He was immediately seized by the Federal authorities, and after having been kept in irons for several weeks, he was put into a wooden box, but little longer than his body, bored with holes barely sufficient to admit the necessary air to sustain life. In this condition he was transferred to the most heated part of one of their gunboats, lying opposite the city, where he was fed on bread and water, and steamed to the utmost extent of endurance, without taking the life of their suffering victim. He was in this condition when his brother, Gen. Forrest, made his gallant and successful charge on Murfreesboro', since which time, for reasons fully satisfactory to themselves, they have thought it prudent to liberate their victim and banish him beyond their lines.
