Cincinnati, Ohio, December 8, 1862.
Maj. Gen. H. W. HALLEOK, General-in-Ohief, Washington, D. O.: I have no cavalry to spare. There is a Tennessee regiment for General Rosecrans at Camp Dennison, waiting for arms and horse equipments, which I have been vainly endeavoring for a month to get. Some new Kentucky regiments are in same condition.
H. G. WRIGHT,
Major-General, Commanding.
