The Gaxette's Murfreesboro dispatch
has contradictory reports about Grants
operations. 1t says Grant was driven
from Jackson, and Pemberton's and
Johnson's forces have possession of Jack
son and the Vicksburg railroad. Anoth-
or special says Grant beat Johnson, and
had possession of the railroad bridge over
the Big Black river. which entirely cuts
of communication with Vicksburg.
Advices from Cairo say our loss at
Raymond was Il killed, 900 wounded
We captured 50 cars loaded with bacon
and corn meal. 1t appears to be Grant s

to reinforce johnson.
