abundant supply of food, we know very well that there is no truth in the statement. Sherman's supply trains were captured, one after another, and immense quantities of army food destroyed by our cavalry. A considerable amount was run into Atlanta, but it could not have been very great. There may be a quantity of commissary stores at Knoxville, but that is about as accessible to Sherman as to us. Sherman's army is not so great as is generally supposed; they are, however, the flower posed; they are, however, the flower of the Northern army, and fight well. There is one corps, eight thousand strong, at Atlanta. Thomas has twelve thousand with him. There are five thousand at Cartersville, two thousand at Etowah, and the remainder of the army will count twenty-three thousand. This makes a total of fifty thousand. The cavalry amount to about five thousand. This being the approximate strength of the enemy, our army, if well managed can easily disconcert and baffle them.

The general and army are all right and in the best of spirits. General Slocum is all right at Atlanta, with plenty of provisions and forage. Hood's raid has produced no military result as yet. If he wants to invade Tennessee, as he has promised his men, he will lose by desertion twice as many as he has captured. The losses in men thus far have to fall back on Galena, Alabama, where communications are open. Slocum sent out a foraging party of fifteen hundred wagons towards Rough and Ready and Decatur, and all returned laden with corn. The army has plenty of supplies both in Atlanta and in the field. It is thought Hood has all his army with him, and it is supposed to be about thirty-five thousand men. Prisoners and scouts state that they are living on parched corn and some dried fruit collected through the country. Th
