He, too, is waiting for rations, and will, in a short time, go down the Cumberland on Nashville, and turn Bowling Green. The roads are drying very fast. Mr. Garber was told by a Secession officer, now a prisoner, that in sixty days General Thomas and all the force he would take into Tennessee would be captured, that Beauregard was quietly withdrawing h

A Claimant for Monticello. --This well known property, famous as the pet of the author of the Declaration of Independence, afterwards the property of Capt. Urish P. Levy, U. S. Navy, has, as our readers are aware, been sequestered by the Confederate Government as the property of an alien enemy. Since the decree was entered, at least one loyal resident of the Confederacy, a relative of Levy, has petitioned Congress to allot the property to him. The last Yankee flag of truce boat brought a foreigner, named Levy, to City Point, whose business had he been permitted to land, was also to prefer a claim to said property. The agent of the Confederate Government had been instructed not to permitted Levy to come ashore, and the boat carried him back.

mselves, and went so rapidly Gen. Pegram could not overtake them. Gen. Pegram then fell back with his whole command to within a mile or two of Somerset, intending to recross the Cumberland river and make his headquarters in the neighborhood of Monticello. On Sunday, the 30th ultimo, the advance of the enemy caught up with Ashby's regiment, and had some skirmishing. On Monday, the 31st, they came upon us with an overwhelming force.--They were said to have had four regiments of cavalry, five of that evening, but came to the river next morning after we had recrossed. After a short artillery cruel they fell back, it was said, twenty two miles. It was reported that Col. Cluke had fallen upon their rear and destroyed their wagon train, and this caused them to fall back. The whole brigade recrossed the Cumberland river, and are now near Monticello. Gen. Pegram and Staff were the last to cross the river. The command brought out of Kentucky some six or seven hundred head of cattle.

Morgan again at work. Information has been received that General Morgan recently attacked a Yankee force in the neighborhood of Monticello, in Kentucky, and severely whipped them, killing and wounding a number, and capturing some twenty-five others. This was a portion of the enemy's force that some time ago engaged the command of Gen. Pegram at Somerset. A correspondent of the Knoxville Register under date of May 12, gives the following account of the affair: The Yankees having moved across the river at this place and driven out Gen. Pegram's forces, Gen. Bragg ordered Gen. Morgan to move up from Liberty, Tenn., with his entire division, (except one regiment,) and "either capture or drive them back across the river." The command was at once put in motion, and, having made a forced march of more than one hundred and twenty miles, swimming rivers and enduring all kinds of hardships, arrived in front of the Yankee encampment, in what is known as the Horseshoe Bend, last

President Davis a Prisoner. --A correspondent of the Charleston Courier, writing from Monticello, Ky., under date of the 14th inst., gives the following startling announcement: Yesterday Gen. Morgan sent in a flag of truce relative to the treatment of some prisoners, and the Yankees were in great glee over "official" dispatches which had been received by Gen Carter that Richmond had been captured by Gens. Stoneman and Dix; Jeff. Davis and all the Cabinet prisoners, besides about thirty thousand of our army. Surprising to relate, their whole army believe it to be literally true, and even some of the citizens are offering to bet on the news being reliable. It is by such infernal lies as these that they have succeeded in duping so many thousand of their people into Southern graves." So it would seem that a systematic and official lie has been perpetrated, with a view to encourage the Yankee soldiers, and to carry out the fanatical ends of the Administration — Truly, th

Gen. Morgan. --We are gratified to see that the Government has at last done justice to this gallant soldier. He has been turned loose, it is said, with instructions to report to no one but Gen. Johnston. We have the first fruits of the movement in the following dispatch from Morgan himself, dated Monticello, Ky., May 12th, 8 A. M.: "I have met the enemy, 10,000 strong — the cavalry under Woolford, the infantry under Gen. Carter--and have repulsed them, with heavy loss. They retreated across the Cumberland, leaving their baggage, camp equipage, etc., in my hands. They lost 300 drowned while crossing the river. I am on the field burying dead Yankees. My loss is light, considering two days engagement."
