NASHVILLE, July 15, 1862.

Col. J. B. FRY:

No supplies forwarded yesterday or day before. Have ordered some forward to Reynolds’ to-day. No supplies have been received from Louisville for several days until yesterday, when 11 car loads of forage came. This I forward to-day to Reynolds’. A large portion of the 50,000 rations of forage forwarded to Murfreesborough by Captain Nigh has been captured or burned. Mr. Anderson saved one train on Sunday. Colonel Swords answers my requisitions for supplies that they will be sent as soon as transportation can be furnished at Louisville.

J. D. BINGHAM.
