Nashville in 1864

March 3[2], 1862 11.30[9]p.m. Brig. Gen. Buel to Maj. Gen. McClellan from Nashville, Tenn.:

No material change in affairs since my dispatch of yesterday.
McCook's division came up last night. Two brigades have crossed to-day. Thomas' division has just arrived by water. I am organizing depots, &e. We are finding every day large quantities of public provisions, principally bacon. The city is quiet and orderly. The enemy is leaving Murfeesborough and going towards Decatur and Chattanooga, and destroying all bridges as he goes. We will have to rebuild.



D. C. Buell,
Brigadier-General.
