G;S We clip the following paragraphs
from the jackson Mississippian of August 2s:
We learn from private letter from Ger
cral Bragg:s army that recently kentucky
regiment sent word to Gen. Bragg that ii he
would send q force after them they would
surrender and fight on tie Southern side, as
they were tired of fighting for Lincoln. Gen.
Bragg complied with their request. Tie
same writer informs us that desertcrsin squads
of Is and 90 are coming over daily, and re-
port that Gen. Buell. regards his condition as
quite critical one.
Evacuation OF BATON RorGE.-It is now
we'll understood that the Yankees have lett
Baton Rouge. The reason for this movement
is supposed to be the fear entertained by the
blue-eyed Beast at New Orleans OF an at,
temp on the part of the Ccnfederatcs to cap
turc the Crescent City. Tic reinforcement
of the Baton Rouge forces is not sufficient
Tue reign of the Beast may be shorter thar
he at present contemplates. JEFF. Thompson
the ubiquitous and dashing jeff with his
twelve thousand hardy, way.worn veterans
backed rs they are by the forces under Gems
Breckenridge and Van Dorm, can take thel
own time in hurting the bastard foe FROM New
Orleans.
