Washington, October 2, 1863.
I arrived here this morning. The Twelfth and Eleventh Corps
have gone to Nashville under command of General Hooker, probably to relieve
some troops which have gone forward to Chattanooga. General Slocum's
resignation was not accepted and he has gone in command of the corps.
I shall probably leave here at six thirty, P. M., and travel
all night.
