General Forrest's operations against Smith and Grierson.
Letter from General Polk.headquarters, Demopolis, March 4, 1864. General Cooper, Adjutant and Inspector General, Richmond:
I send by Captain Vanderford accompanying dispatches, among them a communication from Major-General Forrest, containing account of his operations in checking and defeating the enemy's cavalry forces, intended to form a junction with his infantry at Meridian.
You will perceive that it was a brilliant affair, and that it accomplished my wishes in effectually preventing General Sherman availing himself of his cavalry in his contemplated operations.
That success destroyed his campaign.
Dispatches from General Lee's forces, just received, are of a very gratifying character.
He has overtaken the enemy, on the west of Pearl river, in a very exhausted state, from a want of provisions and forage, and a long and hurried march, and is cutting up the rear of his column.
I have hopes of destroying also
