The movement, led by Uen Sturgis, roded in a stunning defeat neni tiuatowu June 10, and Ui* retreat of th« column to Memphis. When Sturgis’ troop, reached Memphis lien. A. J. Smith hap pened to be in camp there with a corn uutnd .haatined to Join Sherman nt Atlanta Smith promptly took up the march foi “Forrest’s country,” aisl meeting the re doubtable Confederate at Tupelo June It whipped him so soundly that he had to ru .uwt to unusual tactios to rid his territory 'if a foe so mettlesome. Since Memphii was a Ixiae for operations aimed at him h< would counter on Memphis in the hope o; getting up a panic that would result ir Smith’s nsull, if nothing more. For thh expedition he formed a detachment of bb choicest mounted men. numbering 1 //JO Formtt led in person, and the comnutis. set out from a point near Oxford, Miss, at dnak, Aug. M. A steady rain had beet falling for some days and the streams wer. greatly swollen, making » detour nrces sary that lengthened the distaiweliy aboul forty milea. The roads were so heavy tlin! by the moaning of the noth over u bun dred men and a number of horses had he come unasrvieeahle, and these, with tw. out of the four cannon that started wttl the expedition, were sent bock. Relievo of these incumbrances I orreet pressed on In his front the Hlckahaia creek rolled in i deep stream, sixty feet lietween hanks an< without bridges. Beyond was Cold Wulei river, a hundred feet hrdad and not ford able. Forrest, of course, learned the situa tion in advance, and sent ont scatlerint iwrties to gather bridging material, <uu by the time hia coinmn reached the cross ipg place there was lumber at band t. raak* a bridge floor. The men went t< workrau.1 twisted cables out of grnpevinen formed Uoats ont of dry telegraph poles bound them with the vine cables and an c ho red them in the same way to trees on either bank. Telegraph poles also servec as stringpleoes to support the floor of th< bridge, and in about on* hour from tin time the flrst stroke was made, the men began to file across In double lines Al Cold Water river the feat was repealed it three hours by the same methods, except that a Oonvenleut ferryboat was used as H support in the middle of the long spau. That night the raiders reached Hernando twenty.five milea from Memphis, ami wen met by scouts coining direct from the city The soout* reported the |awitioiui occnpie. by tbs Union troops, and assured Forres! that the enemy had no knowledge of hit expedition. Why, she was another Cairo Or Clncmnat or Baltimore. The organized Confederal, front was handmls of miles away, and sh< had long held the character of a city of ref uge for people driven from their homo farther south and for disabled soldiers o the Union army, a* well as arises of safe keeping for Confederate prisoners. Severs '1% • m Mi J MAKING A BIUIKTE. Xo halt was made of any consequence. Orders and information were given to th< commanders while on the march. Free) scouts ware encountered from time to time and when the raiders were within tlire, miles of the city it was nearing daylight on the morning of the 21st (Sunday;, ami Forrest knew to a nicety the location ol every picket post that would challenge hi> advance. A body of men under Capt. W. H. Forrest had the lead, and was directed U open the road and dash on to the heart ot Memphis. Capt. Forrest and ten men marched sixty paces ahead of all others, and soon met the sharp cry “Who comes theref" No satisfactory answer could be given, ol course, but one was trumped up to serve the moment. Capt Forrest promptly re sponded, “A detachment of the Twelfth Missouri cavalry with Confederate pris oaera.” As the regiment named bad been on Forrest's front, near Oxford, a short time before, tbs Union picket couldn't do otherwise than accept the answer as far sj it went. “Adrance one!” said he. Capt. Forrest went on alone and met s mounted picket. With a blow of hia heavy revolver lie strnck him to the ground, and hia trosted followers sprang forward and disarmed the men on the post in rear ol this unlucky vidette. The daring captain now rallied his men sad dashed on to the next post. In the melee at the outer post a mnaket had been dfer-hargol by accident and tbs reserve pickets were alert. The Confederates wer* received with a volley, bat shouling lusrily they charged their op- pooeulM. and by this luireptd act gave llu signal for a general asamit. Ferrest had euJoined the utmost Ms-rscy and silence on all sides antil the city was reached, hut tin shoals of Capt. Forrest's l and wore echoed by a hundred throats along the column stretching far behind and the arc re'. wa> out Saving this, Forrest, who was clos. up to the pioneer I said, ordered his btiflei to son ml the charge. The rail was taker up by the balder of each separate com maud, and in a twinkling the etiilmsiiuitlt squadrons xeampersd away to their work Capt. For rest fed him company along tin main street, rude through an artillery en cotupmuait, shooting tight and left, on u the tlayoao house, where some prominent Union officers war* supposed to Ir quar tered.

The alarm involved tbe whole city. Tin raiders moved in five tiodtes. Capt. Forres was followed closely to the Qayoeo Houm by a detachment led by Col. Igogwood.

Still another Confederate body ! under (>>1. Neely, attacked an infantry en cmnpment near the point where the citj waa entered, but found their match ant more. The men here were in line, and re | ceived the raidtu-H with a volley. For rent who had held aomewhat aloof with hia re serves, went to Neely’* aid, and with his ea cort charged impetuously. Neely attack(H at the same moment and the infantn was driven to cover, Forrest hesitating t< give further attack, however. Anothei body of raiders under Col. Jesse Forres! dashed iuto the headquarters of (Jen. Wash burue, commander of the department, aiu captured some staff oflicera, but failed t< MH.’ure the geueral.the prize he aimed at Gen. Forrent now ordered a retreat. Col IjOgwowi and (Japt. Forrest fought theii way l>ack from the (Jayoso House to tin outskirts. At the battery previously en countered a sharp fight occurred, but tin Con federates pushed through. The Unioi cavalry hail meanwhile got to horse, am small ixslies of Forrest’s men wore eithei chased ont of town or captured. The raid era bad concentrated at the Union infantn ! camp taken by Col. Neely aud Gen. Forrest and were attacked by a mounted force oi several hundred. Forrest again took « hand personally, aud mortally woundec Col. Starr during the conflict. The Confederates had effected their pur pofte, and though they were chased out ol Memphin the glory of the exploit remaiuec behind them. Forrest lost some men, prob ably 200, and claimed to have taken (500 pria oners, including citizens aud convalescent* from the hospital* After the return marcl began the Confederate leader found that his prisoners could not keep up, as the) were without shoes. He halted the columi and communicated by a flag of truce wit) tbe Union headquarters at Memphis, am after some delay secured a supply of cloth ingaudshoes. He then resumed the march and in a few hours sent hack auother com munication to the effect that owing to tb< difficulties of transportation his ratiom were low aud he could not feed the pris oners, but would await supplies for theui from the UuJon commissariat and halt foi this purpose at Hernando, twenty-live mile* distant. This crowning act of boldnest was carried out to the letter. The next morning some Union officers reached hi» camp at Hernando and distributed tw< (ttys’ rations to their uufortunau)comrades and went back to Memphis carrying th< impression that Forrest was in no hurry U leave the vicinity. Here was a raider, with a comparatively weak force, far within tht enemy’s territory, surrounded by autago nists encamped only a few hours’ march die taut from his route of retreat, and by tub time aware of his presence in the vicinit) and his condition, coolly sending word direct to tbe headquarters of the opposing force just where he could be found at u given time, ami actually waiting there a whole night to keep the appointment. Ol course he knew the result. Smith would lie ordered back from Mississippi to guard Memphis, and “Forrest’s country” would relapse into his unhampered control onct more. As a deed of daring, Forrest’s divis ion of force in theI'reflencc of a powerful enemy that hod recently beaten him in « fair light, and his bold ride with a fragment iuto the midst of the armed camps at Memphia, was marvelous, lu view of the military result achieved it was a master stroke of tactic*.
