Nashville Freight
   The Cincinnati Commercial of Saturday says:
   The Louisville & Nashville, and the Nashville & Chattanooga Railroad Company, having notified shippers that no more freight will be taken for points South of Nashville, until further notice, owing to the great accumulation of freight at Nashville, interfered with shipments here by steamers for Nashville. Large quantities of freight is here to go forward, as soon as it is ascertained that it will meet with no detention at Nashville. One house, we understand, have stored over 250 casks bacon detained for Georgia and Alabama. Shippers, however, may be induced to avail themselves of the facilities offered by the Memphis packets, and Memphis & Charleston Railroad.
