CAIRO, Dec 0.
Gen. Hovcy left Helena on the 9th
If November, with about 20, 600 men -
Hc landed at Friars Point on the Missis'
sippi side, twelve miles below. From
that point he marched direct to Grenada,
which is one hundred miles south OF
Memphis.
The presence Of so large force in the
hear; Of Mississippi caused most intense
Consideration among the people Large
numbers fed in terror.
The people Of Grenada heard of the
approach of the Federal army, aud for
several days there vas great CONJUNCTION.
Hundreds left town, accelerated in their
flight by the extreme haste with which
the appeal proprietors packed up and
made oft is supposed to Marietta,
Ga, where paper mill is said to be in
operation.
Gen. lIoyey reached Grenada on Mon.
day evening.
The few Confederate soldiers at Gren-
ada left at his approach. They had
planted four cannon on tie highest hill,
near the town. but they pointed north
and could rot be- used in tho opposite
direction.
Before leaving the rebels burned about
100 cars, and between - and % loco
motives, together with all their ammuui-
ton and army stores.
The direction in which the rebels fed
is 10, yet known. Fedctl cavalry were
in pursuit. At last accounts from Gen.
Grant he was pushing forward, and it is
highly probable he is already at Grenada
with his eutire force. IF Almiral Porter
intends to help open the Mississippi lie
will have to be in a hurry. 1t is said he
leaves to day for below.
