OUR MILITARY BUDGET
FROM VICKSBURG.
GRANTS OPERATIONS THERE.
NO DECISIVE RESULTS YET, BUT HIS PROS.
PECT1 GOOD

The Government received despatch last
evening from w. G. Fuller, Assistant Military
Telegraph Manager, dated Memphis, 27th inst,
announcing tn t two boats had just arrived up
the river, both Of which left Vicksburg on the
18th. They brought no official information
from Gen. Grant, who was too busy to write
dispatches.
Mr.. Fuller telegraphs that he learns from
officers on the boats that everything was pro.
crossing finely when they left-that Grant was
still gaining, and that Johnston had not been
heard from up to that date. At that time the
battle was raging with great fury, with every
prospect of complete success on our side
Gen. Grant does not fear any attack that can
be made upon his rear.
When the boats left, a report had just reached
the river that the Union Generals Carr and
Boomer has been killed The losses on both
sides are said to be heavy.
II is reported that the rebel pickets on the
Rsppahannock yesterday shouted across the
river TO our men that the Yankees had cap.
tured Ficksburg and that Gen. Grant had been
killed in leading storming party.
AS the rebel pckets there have lately seemed
inclined to amuse themselves by shouting bo-
gus Information across the river, this latest re-
port from that quarter will not receive much
confidence.

THE ADvIcEs FROM GRANTS ARMY


We learn that the President has received
nothing directly from General Grant since last
Friday, though OF course he gets unofficial
accounts Of rumors brought to Memphis and
elsewhere concerning the progress OF the siege
of Ticksburg. What more or less of these ru-
mors are worth, may be judged from the fact
that one OF them received night before last
from Nashville asserted that Joe Johnston had
telegraphed Bragg that though Pembertoa had
been beaten on Saturday last, on the following
day he ~ had whipped Grant thoroughly and
en- ,irely relieved vicksbHrg! This story was
OF course Of secesh origin, and has subse-
ausntly turned out to be without the least
foundation in truth.
We may simply add that the weight OF the
information from that quarter in which some
reliance can be placed, leads to the conclusion
that Grant has, step by step, driven the rebels
into their interior entertainments, turning the
others against them; and that as they have more
troops to relieve each other as often as may be
desirable in defending that line of their works,
he is continuing, without serious (if any, mo-
lestation from johnson SO far, to assaiI them
successfully, but gradually, in order to take
as much care as he should take of the lives of
his troops engaged in the desperate fghing OF
such Seige.
