During the past week our little city was honored with the presence of no less a personage than Col. Henry M. ASHBEY, late of the Confederate army. The Colonel appeared to be in excellent health and was on his way to Bolivar county, Miss., where he expects to reside. East Tennessee thus looses one of here most gallant citizens.
