REPORTS FROM vICKsBCRa.
From the Jackson Appeal, 1lth
A gentleman from Grand Gulf yesterday,
Sunday morning for about two hours, in tho
vicinity OF New Carthage. We have been
looking for news OF this character for some
days, and are now quite anxious to know the
result. If we mistake not, some Of the gallant
Missourians, under General Bowen, were in
the fight.
A Yankee expedition. foraging and hunting
negroes, visited Richmond, La, last week, and
while there gobbled up everything within
reach We hear that they killed Phil Sartori-
GUS, of Milliken's Bend, while in Richmond.
They carried OF negroes from every plantation
where they were to be found.
THE YANKEES ON THR MOVE.
The Yankees who have been in camp on the
peninsula for the last six or seven weeks were
to and fro ali day, and every tent in Whites
field, with the exception OF a few on the le wee,
was struck and carried away. Four large
transports, loaded with troops, departed during
the day, and others appeared TO be preparing
to start. Those troops are, no doubt, destined
to reinforce the Yazoo Pass expedition, where
such strenuous efforts are to be made for our
anRihilation.
The garrulous Yankees have got up a new
'rig' TOR facilitating their circum foranean tour
in the direction OF Vicksburg. The project, it
is announced, abounds with the promise OF
fayorabls results. The levee below the Yazoo
Pass is being cut fer the distance Of mile
down the river with the hope of turning q
body of water through that will completely
inundate the whole Yazoo and Tallahatchie
valleys. We do not think that they will sue
ceed in washing out Fort Pemberton by this
new move, or check TiJghman, whom they re-
port to be erecting a battery at the conflue
of the little TalIahatChie with Coldwa Like
all the others, this will, in the end, prove an
aDortive scheme.
The Yankees sent down another "turreted
monster" on Saturday night, with the hope OF
causing US to expend vast quantity Of ammu-
milton in endeavoring to destroy the Quaker
craft. But they were disappointed this time.
Their risibles were not excited in the least as
nothing could be heard to break the stiffness of
the night, save the firing Of the pickets to an =.
nounce that something resembling boat was
floating down. Sergeant Lynch examined the
monster weil, and finding it to be small house
erected on the logs to resemble a gunboat, witt
two wooden chimneys, he gave the proper sig
nal, and 1t was permitted to pass on unmoleted.
