on the steamer Schultz were from Point Lookout, Md.--From conversation with some of them, we learn that a large number bought their places on the truce beat from the prison authorities, paying in whatever sums of greenbacks they could get hold of — from $10 to $100--for the privilege of going off in the number selected. One of them had $15 in the hands of the Yankee clerk of the post, and secured his place by offering to surrender it. The offer was accepted. The returned prisoners say that, with the exception of the Marylanders, our men are in a bad condition at Point Lookout — many of them being barefooted, and nearly all ragged. Those from Maryland, being near home, receive much attention from the women of their State. These ladies do as much as they can for the troops from other States, but, not being relatives, are not allowed by the prison authorities to go far in their benevolence. The "oath" was tendered to the prisoners at Lookout, but not a corporal's guard took i

entered according to act of Congress in the year 1863, by J. S. Thrasher, in the clerk's office of the District Court of the Confederate States for the Northern District of Georgia. Dancon, Dec. 29th. --Intelligence having reached here day before yesterday that a large wagon train, belonging to the enemy, was moving towards Knoxville, Maj.-Gen. Wheeler was ordered to take what troops of his command that could be spared from the front, and, if possible, capture it. His force, 1600 strong, under the immediate command of Brig. Gen. Kelly, reached Cleveland yesterday morning. Here he found the train had not pursued that route, and he pushed towards Charleston, when he encountered a brigade of the enemy, and drove them to their reserves. Within two miles of that place our little band had the mortification to see the last of the train pass through the town safely.

had the mortification to see the last of the train pass through the town safely. The enemy's forces being computed at 8000 infantry, orders were given to fall back, when a cavalry force, 5000 strong, which had been thrown out to bank our troops, was observed, and their object completely foiled by the shell of our commander. The enemy approached cautiously, as if apprehensive of an ambuscade, and evinced no disposition to charge, but kept up a fire with revolvers. Our retreat was conducted with consummate skill and success. Lieut. Porter, of Gen. Wheeler's staff, was indebted to his courage and coolness for a narrow escape. Two of the enemy had their sabres drawn over his head, and demanded his surrender, when he deliberately drew his pistol, killed one, and the other fled, after discharging his revolver through that officer's overcoat. Our casualties sum up two killed, five slightly wounded, and six taken prisoners. On the part of the enemy, six killed and or twelve wounded.
