NO. XXXI.
Cumberland Gap, Tenn., 1
Juno 12, 1862. J
Dear Cuuiueu : Until within tho last
lew days,, we all anticipated tlmt the
word “adv.tynco” would soon greet our
oars, nnd that wo would bo allowed to
make a forward movoment upon tho
soil of Kentucky. Rut sUudondly “a
change cams on tho spirit of our
dream,” and from certain arrange
ments made by the po.vors Hint bo, wo
were forced to the conclusion (lint the
forces hero were about to make one of
thoso unpopular moves, generally
known as “falling back,” in the great
and exeit'ng game now being enacted
between tho North nnd South, in
the momentous issue of “supremacyv 3
independence.
The Federals, taking ndvuntngo of
the absence of our forces from Big
Creek Gap, (which they wero obliged
to leave and hasten to tho defonco of
Chattanoogu,) crossed the mountrins at
that point in lr.rgn force, and it is now
reported that they are marching to
wards cur roar. Tho enemy is also
supposed to be crossing tho Cumber
land range on our right, and their plan
seems to be to make a united attack in
our front nnd roar, and to cut off our
only chance uf retreat on tho Kentucky
road. Evidently a simultaneous attack
upon Chattanooga nnd the Gap, is tho
progt amine of the Federals now threat
ening thoso points.
Under tho above circumstances, in
tho face of sucli odds and under so ma
ny disadvantages, it would bo suicidal
to attempt to hold tho Gap, ns tho ene
my could easily out off our supplies nnd
o.cntually starve us into a surrender.
Consequently, ns abovo stated, things
looked ns if wo wero about to evacuate
the place, and endeavor to reach tho
rniiroad ; everything was prepared for
sucli a move ; all of tho available trans
portation wus called into requisition,
and our sick, baggage, &c., was convoy
ed towards tho railroad.
But this-morning tho prospools are
changed, nnd wo may yot stay here.
Intelligence was received last night-,
that our forces wore returning to Big
Creek Gap, nnd would probably attack
tho onemy now threatening our roar,
and it is therefore determined thet wo
attempt to hold tho Gap; thus affairs
stand at present writing.
Firing was heard in tho direction oi
our pickets last night, and wo are ex
peeling Hint the onemy will soon make
nn attack. Wo havo a sufficient supply
of provisions nnd ammunition! on hand,
and tiro ready and anxious to meet tho
invaders. The dofendors of the “Gib
raltar of East Tennessee,” aro deter
mined to hold it to tho last extremity,
uiul if wo aro eventually obliged to
givo it up, it will bo because the en
emy lias starved us into a “military ne
cessity.”
It becomes our painful duty to re
cord the death of another member of
our company. W. W. Russell died
yesterday nt 1 o’clock A. M. j ho had
been suffering for sevorul weeks from
a complicated di&easo, which terminat
ed in camp fever and pneumonia, lie
Ho died calmly and happily,- enjoying
tho cliristiun’s hope of a better lifo be
yond tbo grave.
F. T. IIix, George nnd Marion Mnt-
this, and one or two -others who were
on (lie sick list, wore sent yesterday to
tho hospital recently established at
Bean’s Stat'on, twelve miles from-Mor
j’lstowir.
We could .communicate some further
items in regard to our movements,-but
if would lie imprudent, perhaps, to do
so, and we J'ear that wo have already
made ourselves liable to the censure of
the military censors of the press, In
fact, tliis Snay be tho last communica
tion which wo will bo enabled to send
to the columns of- the Courier, us we
understand that tho newsprpor corres

Occasional Correspondence.
Carp McDonald, Juno 10th, 1802.
Mr. Sai,7aoe—Dear Sir : Supposing
the friends of tho Cothran Dragoons
would like to hear from us occasionally,
1 would beg a place In your papor, to
mako known our movements since
lonving homo.
After remaining in camps, (on half
rations for our horses) for ton days, we
received orders to strike tents and pre
pare to tuke up tho lino of march for
this place, sending our sick, tents nnd
baggage by railroad. Accordingly on
the morning of tho 0th inst-., our tnon
hazing tho night previous cooked wliul,
beef and flour was on hand) wo started
on our inarch, dividing tho company
into four .squads, separating them a
quarter mile to avoid the dust. Noth
ing worthy oi note transpired on the
way, except tho kindness which was
shown us nt n fow places on tho route.
I would beg fust to mention our recep
tion and entertainment at (ho town of
Hamilton, Harris county. The compa
ny is greatly indebted to Gen. Boll nnd
brothor, Dr. Bedell, Dr. Brtico und Dr.
Gibbs, for services rendered, nnd more
especially aro they indebted to tho in-
dies, for the sumptuous breakfast which
they prepared, and spread on tables in
the Court Housofor us. Long may the
citizens of Hamilton live to enjoy tho
freedom for whioh wo hnvo entered tho
field to contend.
We cannot pass by unnoticed tho
gontlomen with whom wo stayed tho
following night, viz: I)r. Beasley,’ Mr.
Glanlon and Mr. A’lnson, nil of Troup
county, whoso kind hospitality wo
eqjoyed, men and horses, free gratis l’or
nothing. At all other places we hud
whatever wo could got, by paying two
prices for it, pnrlioulaily nt Newnan,
excepting Judge Berry, who kindly
tendered us a largo Hall free of clmrgo,
for which ho lias our thanks. We ar
rived here on tho litli, after a tedious
march of five days, and find it rather a
pleasant place.
There is plenty of corn but little fod.
der, commissary stores abundant, nnd
tbo best of -all, a very clover set of men
in tho Quartermasters and Commissnry
Department. It is rumored in camps
to-day, that we are to remove in a day
or two to Camp Randolph, In Gordon
county. This move we think unwise.
Col. Lawton’s Regiment of Cavalry,
which has been here but a short time,
has "boon removed back to Atlanta.
Col. Hunt's Regiment, I understand,
leaves to-morrow.
A great many of oar men hnvo mea
sles, nnd havo been sent home. The
company is greatly indebted to Dr.
Wooten, for his kind attention to tho
sick. I trust lie may receive tho ap
pointment of Regimental Surgeon. 1
am sure nono more fitting could bo ap

strongest and most-approved kind.
Richmond, Juno 14,—Tho Philadel

The rebols wero completely routed af

Of Jackson’s viotory over Shields at

but our number were so much inferior
to theirs—they being live to our one—
wo wero compelled to full back tliroo
or four miles with heavy loss." (?)

SECOND DISUATCII.
Tho New York “Hornld” of tho litli
says that the Riohmond “Dispatch”
gives a terrible record of the loss of
rebel officers nt tho battlo of “Fair
Oaks,” including 5 Generals and 23
Colonels, Tho “Herald” does not
print tho “Dispatch's” artiole, whioh
shows its representations to bo a sheer
fabrication.
Fremont tclographcd to Secretary
Stanton that he engaged Jackson’s en
tire force on tho 8th inst. Tho battlo
bo says lasted with great obstinacy for
fivo hours; loss on both sides was very
groat—federal loss heavy among tho
officers. Tho federal troops fought
occasionally under n murderous firo of
greatly superior numbers. Ho says
tho bayonet and canister shot were
used freely and with great effect by tho
federals. Gen. Milroy had command
of tho oontro, Gen. Schenok of . the
right wing, and Gon, Stahl of the left.
Blenker's, Bolder,s nnd Stcinbnch’s
brigades composed the resorvo— at
least 30,000 mon. The 8th Now York
rogimont was badly cut up, losing 300.
Tho total loss is estimated at six or
eight hundred killed, wounded nnd
missing. Fremont adds: “Tho federal
forces wero greatly outnumbered at all
points, but have occupied tho rebel
lines and forced them to retreat."
Tbo London “Times” of May 28th
says Lincoln was right in describing
this war us a “big .job ; ” it is tho big
gest job of tho kind ever seen. No
mero 00 days business. Battles are
known to be imminent which will ex
ceed in severity liny others ever fought;
Tho “Times” says the proclamation
of Butler surpasses all that was ever
told of tyranny by a victory over tho
vanquished, and that tho stato of sla
very endured by the negroes of New
Orleans cannot bo moro*absoluto than
that now suffered by the whites of that
city.
