. The army is safe, intact, and existing, to serve as a nucleus around which reinforcements may rally. The column which Sherman has sent to the South is supposed to have gone in search of the prisoners, which, thus far, he has failed to capture. We do not think he is likely to find them. With his main force he is already moving north; his object being, no doubt, to pass through South and North Carolina, and, as far as he can, destroy all the communications between those regions and General Lee's army.

General Cheatham stated that Hood's force, when he reached Nashville, was thirty-five thousand strong. We have no doubt that this statement is correct. Rebel officers at the penitentiary say that Hood had no expectation of an attack on Thursday, and that all of them were astonished at General Thomas's forward movement on that day. Judging from Gener
