Times Dispatch.
No engagement had occurred at Cor
NTH up to yesterday noon. The army
was still gradually advancing, and our
forces were 1t an average distance of
three miles from the enemy's advance.
The enemy were acting strictly on the de-
fensive. and for three days had sent out
no reconnoitsring parties. The advanced
lines of the rebel army have thus far
slowly retreated from the advancing move
ments OF the different divisions.
Indications point strongly to tho belief
that Corinth has really been evacuated.
The roads in the vicinity of Corinth
are in bad condition, owing to late fall of
rain.
1t was reported that three brigades
from Buell's army had seized that part Of
the Memphis and Charleston Railroad
which lies midway between Corinth and
Grand Junction, thus cutting off the COM
munication between the two points. It
is also reported that detachment of Gen.
Pope's army has seized upon the railroad
south of Corinth. 1t is highly probable
that these two achievements have been
performed.
Every steamer that arrives brings re-
ports of the evacuation of Corinth.
Steamer Re Soto reached here to-day
from Fl. Pillow. but brought no news Ia
ter than that already telegraphed.
A rebel spy had been captured while
endeayoring to cross the Mississippi at
night in q skiff. He bad copies Of the
Chicago Times Of the 4th inst, St. Louis
Republican of 9th inst, and New York
Times Of lst He was arrested and placed
in close confinement.
The steamer Sam Gay passed here to-
day en- route for Pittsburg With number
of physicians and nurses and large guam
tity Of hospital supplies on board. She
has been chartered by the State of Wis
consin for the relief Of all wounded or
sick soldiers from that State.
The Louisiana reached here tonight
from Pittsburg, having left there Tuesday
evening. She has on board nearly four
hundred sick soldiers, who are to be taken
to St. Louis.
The railroad track between here and
Mound City is being repaired SO that
trains will soon run regularly.

an Constitutional and sacred-sacred as
the rights Of traitors to their slaves.
Many Of our readers will remember that
Clagstt WAS accustomed, in his public
speeches last summer. to dcnounce Ma
hony and Jairus Neal as traitors for
uttering just such sentiments as he
now advocates. Evidently his views
have changed, and he now pleads for the
same rights which he then denied to
them, and for the exercise of which he
then asserted, in his public speeches, that
he could convict them of treason before
any honest jury in the country.
