Island No. TO-, Is almost directly sou: h
OF Columbus, and about 50 miles distant, bv
way Of the river, from that recent strong
holj Of the rebels. 1t is near the Kentucky
and tennessee line. At this point there is a
bend Of the river towards the East The riv-
er, below the Island, turns towards the
northwest, making a bend like an ox-bow.
At the extreme westerly point OF this curve,
Is New Madrid, 10 Missouri, evacuated by
the rebel forces some DAYS since, and now oc-
cupIed by our troops. it Is oil miles from
Columbus, and though further down the riv-
er than Island No. 10, lies to the North and
West of that place. Point Pleasant also in
Missouri. which was taken possession Of by
Gen. Pope, more than aweek ago. Is still
further down the river. 1t was the batteries
erected by that gallant general, which forced
the rebels at New Madrid to evacuate the
place, as reinforcemeuts could not be sent
up the river 10 them. These batteries, with
heavy guns, have also prevented the rebels at
Island No. 10 from retreat.ng down the
river IN their transports.
The rebel gunb1ats come up 20 this point,
and have heretofore had command Of all the
river below them. Our troops have possess
ion Of the western bank ol the Mississippi,
but the rebels have had control OF the east
crn bank. They have had steamers at Island
No. 10, by means OF which it is probable
they have been enabled to escape TO the Ten
nessce bank of the river. \ short march
from here would bring them 70 Merriweatn-
er's landing, below Point Pleasant. where
they could embark for another flight down
the river to Randolph, 100 miles from Column
bus and . above Menlnhis
