To all the anxiety and apprehension of the
friends who have sons and brothers in the ar
my of the Mississippi, | desire to communi-
cate the result of a visit which | have Just
made to that army. From the representa-
lions which were made, | expected tic find
sickness and suffering prevailing to a fright
full extent, but am most happy to report that
such Is not the case.
For a short time after the landing of the
troops at and near Goung's Point, consequent
upon long confinement on transports, there
was much sickness, but the health of the troops
had improved rapidly, and the per centage of
sickness is below what | have generally found
it III camps in other portions of the country
which l have visited.

and healthy appearance of both officers and
men. l visited every regiment, particularly
in Sherman's corps. which was reported in
the worst condition. While in some of the
new regiments the amount of sickness was
large, i'll others it was unusually small. The
camps, as a general thing, were we'll placed,
as much as the nature of the ground would
admit, The great danger to be apprehended
Is from the want Of a proper vegetable diet.
symptoms of scurvy have already made their
appearance, and it behoves friends at home
to make prompt efforts to aid il remedying
this.
| was assured by those in charge of the
Commissary Department that they would do
what they could, but the difficulties in the
way are many and great, and as much as
they may do, there is ample room for those
at home to do who sympathize with our brave
soldiers. Pickles, krout, vegetables and fruits
OF every description will be needed, and can
be used to advantage. Another danger arises
from the seapage water, but the officers are
taking active measures to prevent this. I
saw General Sherman going through the
camps on foot, giving particular directions in
regard to this and other sanitary regulations.
No one could look after his men more care
fully than he does, while he maintains a strict
discipline, he mingles with and goes among
his men TO ascertain personally their wants
he has a kind word for all, and is greeted by
his men as one who cares for and thinks of

EFench fseverseH ia Mexico.

The latest news from Mexico indicates that
the French forces are getting into trouble in
all directions. The Mexican guerrillas con-
tinue to intercept conveys, carry off muleteers
capture mules Ill great numbers, and virtually
stop the supplies for the French army. Are
port received by way Of Havana, says that
Gen. Forey has been forced to issue bills in
sums of five dollars, and it is thought that ow-
ing to the continued decrease of specie circu-
lation, he will have to issue them as low as
one dollar, in order to make necessary purchas-
es. These bills are drawn on the imperial
Treasury.
Scarcely was Jalapa evacuated by the French
f%orcesr when it was occupied by the Mexican
troops and now the French have an enemy
i'll front, OF the TANKS and III the rear-every-
where, in fact. Tampico is again in the
hands OF Garza, who took possession of the
Plaza as the French troopsIevacuated, scarce
ly giving them an opportunity to embark on
their transports. The Mexican artillery OPEN
ed upon the vessels in the harbor, and a brisk
engagement ensued, which resulted in the
destruction Of a French war vessel, which had
grounded on the bar, and the driving away Of
the fleet.
The evacuation of Tampico became necessa-
~, because the climate was destroying the
French forces, without benelttlng the cause.
Puebla is defended by one hundred and
eighty-seven pieces of artillery, of the heavi-
est callbre. Its Notifications are pronounced
im~pregnable, and its garrison is over thirty
thousand strong. The greatest enthusiasm
animates the defenders, and its commander,
Gonzales Ortega, is convinced that it cannot
be taken.
The French were completely repulsed at
Acapulco, on the Pacific, after several days
bombardment of the forts, and serious injury
was inflicted on several of their vessels.
Comonfort remains in Tacubaya with his
troops, and the enthusiasm for the cause in
the city of Mexico is represented as beyond
all description.
Everywhere in the republic the utmost con-
fidence Of their ability to defeat the French
whenever and wherever they may offer battle.
And all a~nxiously await the grand advance
of General Forey upon Puebla, which is now
the Mexican Sebastopol.
