RICHMOND, VA.,
August 17, 1862.

General BRAGG,
Chattanooga, Tenn.:

Forrest and Withers are appointed brigadiers, and ordered to report to you. You are authorized to enroll conscripts in Tennessee. General E. Kirby Smith desires that General Buckner may be sent to him. I have telegraphed to Knoxville, authorizing General Smith to stop General Buckner unless you think him indispensable to you. He is made a major-general.

G. W. RANDOLPH,
Secretary of War.
