HALLECK's HEADQUARTERS,
CoRINTH, May 81.
Our cavalry found all the tents Of the en-
emy standing. We took hundreds of bar
rels of beef and seven thousand stand Of
arms in large encampmeDt on the Mobile
& Ohio Railroad, said to belong to Price
and Van Dorn's forces, who left Thursday
night.
Rebels are being brought in in squads Of |
from forty to fifty. IA
Our cavalry found the rebels in strong
positions on several roads, with artillery sup
ported by infantry. IA
The rebels commenced moving their sick
last Monday.
Beauregard and Bragg were at Corinth
on Thursday:
The recently published card of army news
paper correspondent gives the erroneous i'm.
preston that General Halleck prohibited
tho reporter of the New York Associated
Press here from telegraphing anything, ex.
eept such items as he approves. General
Halleck has never used such influence over
the Accocated Press dispatches, and grasses
only such items as are Of d contraband char
acter.
SUNDAY, Juno |.
Residents say that the rebel guard burned
Cypress Creek Railroad bridge by misap.
prehension, causing the destruction of seven
locomotives, and, perhaps, as many trains,
laden with Commissary and Quartermaster' $
stores. This accounts for the smoke seen
by the Signal Corps from tree tops.
