tiary, two factories, foundry, block of build,
lngs, medical purveyor's and other Government
buildings; also destroyed several miles of rail-
road track and both bridges on Pearl river. The
MissisSppiam office was Quilted and the presses
and type thrown into the street, &c. Three
hundred negroes joined the Yankees. The farm
ers estimate the damage by the federals at from
5000 900 to 10000, 900 dollars. Much suffer-
ing prevails. The last of the federal rear guard
lett about two clock, when the rebel cavalry
dashed in and killed Colonel and two Of his

err destroying the bridge.
The iederals advanced eight miles north and
on the morning of the 18th found Joe Johnston
in line of battle. According to the rebel advi-
ces no artillery was lost and the bridge not
