rtain. He had a sharp engagement with the enemy when he attacked the wagon train, and lost a number in killed, wounded, and prisoners during the fight and on his way to Decatur. The train was so long that, notwithstanding it was defended by a strong escort, he succeeded in destroying several hundred wagons. It is understood that the President sustains Gen. Bragg, and that no change will be made in the command of the army. The latter has relieved Gen.

Stephen D. Lee, at Decatur, Ala, where he recrossed the river. It is stated, also, that he burnt the bridges over Duck and Elk rivers, and a large quantity of stores at Murfreesboro', but this is not certain. He had a sharp engagement with the enemy wh
