Cushman's Regiment.

This regiment, in which our people feel
so deep an interest, left Chicago last Sa,
turday night and arrived at St Louis on
Monday morning The intention was to
retain the regiment awhile at Benton Bar
racks for drill, but when Gen. Hal
leck come to see the boys, he concluded
they would do, and within three hours
had them on board a steamer bound for
the head waters of the Tennessee, where
they will probably arrive just in time to
take hand in the great battle about to
come Off between Gen. Grant and Beaure-
gard at Corinth.
We learn that the two infantry compa.
MES, of which the regiment was deficient
when it left Ottawa, were about made up
at Chicago
