NEW 1ORk, May. ~.
The following is special to the Herald:
Murtreesboro', lsh.-The situation here is
unchanged. The extension of the rebel left
to Wiliamsport has not weakened the heavy
infantry force in our immediate front. The
corps of Gems. Polk, Hardee and Breckin-
ridge are at Grey's Gap, Wartraces and Hoov-
er Gap respectively. Gen. Folks corps con-
sists of Gems. Withers and Cheathams divis-
ions; Gen. Hardee's, of Gems. Clayburn's and
McCowan's divisions, and Gen. Breckinridge's,
of his own old division under Hardee and
Helms, and the reinlorcements lately received
forming another division, said to be under the
command of j. Patton Anderson.
1t is said Gen. Bragg has received reinforce
ments from other points, of three brigades,
but it is also asserted that the same troops
have gone to the aid of Vicksburg. The
forces alluded to are the brigades of General
| Churchill just exchanged. Gen. Gists from

Gen. Morgan has moved towards Kentucky,
proposing to cross the Cumberland above
Carthage. There is a report that he crossed
on Friday, but it is not credited.
Gen. Wood returns to the command Of his
old division instead of returning to the COM
mand of Nashville, his old troops protesting
against his retirement from active command.
The Mobile Register OF the 10Th says Gen.
Buckner has been assigned to the command
Of East Tennessee, vice Davis.
There is also story in circulation that he
has been attempting to cross Cumberland
Fork. 1t is presumed that forces have been
lately thrown into East Tennessee, as Gen.
Buckners rank gives him command of a d.
vision, and presumes on the retirement OF Dav-

Battle Expected.
CAIRO, May 49,
The latest dates from Gen. Grants army,
through Federal channels, are to the 18th
inst, via Milliken Bend l4th.
Gems. Logan and Osterhaus were marching
toward Jackson, driving Bowen, with force
reported at 1900, before them, while Gen.
Grant was marching upon the Black river and
expecting to engage Pemberton at the bridge
over that stream. Pembertons force was es-
timated at $4,000, and were said to be strongly
entrenched near the bridge. A great battle
there Is imminent.
PHILADELPHIA, May 10.
The Bulletin of this city has the following
important special dispatch:
Cincinnati, l9th.-The defeat of the rebels
at Raymond, Miss, is said to have been very
disastrous to them. We are yet without par
ticnlars.
Gen. Grant took jackson, Miss, on the l4th
inst, and burned the State Capital. Heavy
reinforcements were burrying forward TO the
rebels, and stopping twelve miles east of jack
son. A great battle is Imminent.
A letter from Richmond, KY, says the rebels
have crossed the Cumberland and are advanc-
ing on that place. There is no question but
that another invasion of Kentucky is contem-
plated, with view to flank Gen. Rosecrans,
and compel him to leave his strong position at
Murfreesboro'.
