Hunt was wounded severely by a ball, which shat tered his thigh. Tbey wore compelled to kave hira there j and what make- the matter more painful ia, the shot was from a gun in the bands of some one of our owo men. Our forces were divided into three parts or. squadi) two to go round on either flank and intercept the Yankee in the rear, cr by whatever direction they might attempt to eecape, while the remaining portion of tbe command was to attack in front Owing to unex pected difficulties cur forces did not reach tbe rear till about live minutes after tbe main body of the Yankees had tkeedaddled past tin point where it was intended to intercept tbem. "Cel. Hunt bravely kdinthe attack in. front, and in pursuing tbe flying laokecs, rushed on- consciously between the cross firing of our flankers. His wound, though severe, ww not considered a danger- ousone. lie had to be lelt.

The frightened flying Yankees were pursued foorteo miles, 1 11 they were utterly routed and scattered in every "' direction. As heretofore reported, tbe commander of their regimeut was captured, with a largo quantity of wagons, horses and mules, superbly capvisoued, an im meuse amount of commissary and qtartcrmaster's stores ; also a considerable number ol splendid guns.

Here is the terminus of a branch of the Louis ville and Nashville Kailroad, and is the nearest point of. railroad to Cumberland Gap. From here everything in tbe shape of supplies is wagoned across the country to the Gap. Here they found a considerable force of Fed eral soldier J, and a fierce battle ensued. The cruel, murderous Yankees forced every man in the town to enter their ranks upon pain of being shot down iu their own bouses. A considerable number of the Yankees were killed ; and among the killed were some good and true Southern men, who bad gone into their ranks not to fight us, for they did not do so bnt to keep from being shot down in their own houses before their own families.
