TALLADEGA, June 6, 1865.

(Received 10.30 a.m.)

Colonel HOUGH,

Assistant Adjutant-General, Montgomery:

A party of men in disguise, supposed to be from the northern part of the State, made a raid on Columbiana on Saturday evening. They hung Mr. Cobb and Mr. Rushing to a tree and left them hanging. Took $4,000 in gold from Cobb. They exchanged horses at every planter's house. My command is scouting through the whole northern part of the State. If they do not disperse and take refuge in the mountains they cannot escape. The men that were hung were actively engaged during the war arresting deserters. The mob may have been actuated by a desire to retaliate.

Brigadier-General.

TALLADEGA, June 6, 1865.

Colonel HOUGH,

Assistant Adjutant-General:

Talladega is the nearest by rail to Gadsden, forty-five miles to Centerville, fifty-six to Goshen. I shall complete the railroad to Blue Mountain in ten days, when I can make a corn depot at that point. I have but five wagons. I have distributed 1,500 bushels of corn and 10,000 pounds of Confederate bacon. They come from all parts of State. Calhoun, Randolph, Talladega, and Shelby Counties
