FIGHTING BETWEEN THE NEGROES ANE
YANKEES.
There seems to have been q collision. oil
cutie serious character, between the Yam
sses and the colored allies at Fort jackson,
below New Orleans. A few days ago We
published dispatch from Mobile. in which
seonflsed allusion was made to the matter,
which was not understood for want of pre-.
yious Information.
Yesterday member of the House Of Rep
,-sentatyes received the following dispatch,
which partially explains the affair:
"NoBuE, Dec. 24.-I have this moment
received the following dispatch from Mag
nails. Gated Dec. % News from Fort Jack
son, brought by released prisoners, state
thai they were lighting there yesterday
sir thousand negroes were In The II, and
al the gunboats had been sent frFf ii with
three thousand troops
Magnolia is q station on the Jackson and
New Orleans railroad The solution of the
telegram is, that the negroes, who were gar.
Isoning the fort, have mutinied, and that a
fsht between them and their Yankee friends
kss eusued.
With the lights before Us at present, with
cut any strong feeling OF friendship for
cher party, We can only hope that the dar-
li(: may be successful.

In Nansemond and Princess Anne counties all
