Major General GEORGE L. HARTSUFF:

The following is an extract from telegram just received:

CARTAGE, TENN., June 26.

Morgan arrived at Granville, Jackson County, Tennessee, June 23. Information received to-day that he is gone up the river on the south bank, toward Monticello, to intercept General Carter. River has risen 3 feet and still rising.

WM. B. STOKES,

Colonel, Commanding.

Colonel Stokes has good facilities for obtaining information. The Cumberland on our front is impassable, and I fear no assistance could be rendered General Carter from this side. I send provisions to General Judah to-day, via Paces, the only way of avoiding streams between here and Tompkinsville.
