PHILADELPHIA, june 1.-THE follow
ing has been received here by mail from
Washington, dated the 10th: 8h
Two dispatches were received from
Grant addressed TO different gentlemen,
in his official position. The dispatches
are dated on Mondays much shorter
time in obtaining advices from Vicksburg
than heretofore. An Important fact and
one which has occasioned much anxiety
is derived from them, namely, that Gen.
Grant was in communication with Gen.
Banks as late as the 4th inst, at which
time Port Hudson was closely invested. ,
Gen. Grant reports that 10. Johnston
is concentrating troops to operate against
him, and mentions areport that three di-
visions are moving from Gen. Bragg to
reinforce Johnston. Gen. Bteckinridge
is known TO have joined him. ,,A
Vicksburg is still closely invested
The siege is progressing favorably. n
The tone Of the dispatches is repre-
scented TO be such as 70 show that Grant
fears neither the enemy in his front nor
rear. 1t is presumed that he did not
know, at the date of his despatch. wheth-
err or not he was to be reinforced.
This information inspires increased
hope and confidence in the final success
of the siege. l
