FROM CoRINTH.-The Cincinnati Ga
zetts of June IL has the following para
graphs:
"We have private advice from Gen.
Halleck's army up to last Friday. The
divisions we're scattering, and the general
impression was that the season Of active
operations was nearly over. Troops
from both the other corpse darmee had
Joined Pope, and the combined force was
pushing the enemy's rear, some forty
miles south of Corinth, on the Mobile
and Ohio railroad. McClernand was
opening up the railroad north of Corinth
toward Columbus, Ky. Other divisions
from the West Tennessee army were
opening the road toward Memphis,
Wills Gen. Wood, from BueVs army,
was moving out in the opposite direction
on the Memphis and Charleston road
Squads of railroad men are already at
work, and the captured locomotives were
being used in running construction trains,
There was no prospect of finding the
enemy 10 force anywhere, except at
Oklahoma and it was not supposed that a
serious movement upon him there would
be attempted for the present. McCook's
division was occupying Corinth, and both
General Halleck'S and General Thomas
headquarters were established in town
Large numbers Of officers were avsiling
themselves of the prospects for quiet
to secure furloughs. There was ru'
NOR that General Halleck would remove
his headquarters to St. Louis again in q
short time"

FRENCH DEFEAT In MExICo.-The
reported defeat of 1000 French troops
at Peubla, Mexico, appears to be con-
drmed. They were greatly outnumber-
ed by the Mexicans, and were repulsed
with heavy loss. The affair may prove
very disastrous to the rest of the French
army now in Mexico, This event will
afford tuning point to the singular pol
icy of the French Emperor toward Mex
leo. 1t is possible that the disatfection
already created upon the subject in all
branches of the French service, and the
manifest difficulties ahead, may lead him
to Withdraw from the project of conquer
ing Mexico and giving it new govern
ment. Bot it is feared that he may be
stimulated to renew his exertions on a
grand scale, by pouring in large reiti-
lforcements in the autumn, and sweeping
all resistance before him. It would GER
tainly be curious if one of these govern
ments of Europe, which seem to have
been so concerned al the difficulties of our
holding and pacifyng a conquered coun-
try, should SO soon be undertaking the
very thing itself, and thet, too, without
any necessity or moral and legal obliga-
ton, such as inevitably controls our &c
] ton.
