WAR NEWS.
There is no war news of interest. The Yankees are still busy lying over their disaster at Reams’ station.
A dispatch from Louisville on the 30th announces the capture of a company of Yankees six miles below Gallatin by Wheeler.
Wheeler’s force is estimated at from five to twelve thousand men.2
