We had the pleasure of meeting this estimable gentleman in our city yesterday. We understand that he has resigned his position on the staff of Gen. Loring, now in Virginia, and returned to Tennessee for the purpose of resuming his former relation to the 1st regiment of Tennessee volunteers. His return will be the occasion of general rejoicing among our gallant Tennessee troops. No man has been more self-sacrificing in his efforts to be useful, and no one is more universally beloved in this portion of the army with which he has been connected. The services of such an man are invaluable to the country.
