The Rebel, of the Oath, has the follow
ing: VA
Jackson, June 25.-Col. Lyons con-
maudpg the cavalry outside of Port Eud-
son attacked Col. Grierson in rear of Banks
yesterday, capturing 50 prisoners, 81
wagons and putting the remainder to
| flight.
Richmond, June 25.-Ten transports
approached the White House this morning
and small force landed. 1t is reported
that the pickets advanced to Turnstall's
station. No apprehensions are felt in
official circles. ....
| The Rebel of the 2Sth. in an editorial
on the situation says: "There is no ques-
ton but the enemy is approaching and
great battle is in anticipation. Every
preparation is being made to give him a
warm reception. The baggage and the
| sick are being sent to the rear, and rein :
! forcements to the front.
Another brigade from Western Vir.
ginia passed up yesterday, chiefly Vir-
glnla troops in the first company. In the
Tennessee portion, Buckner's command
passed up last evening and Jackson's will
| probably follow in the morning.
We learn that Breckinridge's division
did not reach Montgomery, having been
recalled by Gen. Johnston to Jackson
We over estimated the loss in killed and
wounded. The whole number will not
exceed 20, and not Is, killed, as reported
last evening. Four hundred of the en-
emy's cavalry occupied, and the enemy
had burned one or two bridges this side
of, Hoover's Gap. This story is not be-
lieved here. .s. =. ....s..ar
jackson, June ga staff officer who
left Vioksburg Monday, reports the garri-
son closely beseiged. The enemy keeps
up fire much severer than formerly, as
they have range of the town. An entire
block of buildings was destroyed on Wash
| ington street by incediaries. Every means
have been taken to discover them without
success. Sappers and miners are both
hard at work, and so close together that
| they hear the sound of each others picks.
Concord Church, June 80, s P. M
The reconnaissance of Gen. Steadman this
afternoon was pushed within two miles of
Tullahoma. Gen. Thomas accompanied
column and reports the enemy in force
near our works with videttes thrown out
short distance from our front.
1t is thought a mere shell of the rebel
army remains in Tennessee. This is doubt
less mistake. We found four brigades
at Hoovers Gap and four at Liberty Gap.
