No Steamers from vicksburg:

CAIRO, Jan. 8.-The steamer from Mem
phls brings nothing later from Vicksburg.
The reason assigned by the passengers forthe
non. arrival of steamers from Vicksburg, Is
that the rebels have planted batteries at Cy-
press Bend thus preventing intercourse for
the present. They can easily be cleared
away by our gunboats when communication
becomes necessary.

One Ct the most Affecting incidents Of the brilliant
and successful reoapturs ef 0aiveatoa BY the forces
under Major General Magrudsr, was the meeting
between Major Lea, Of our army, with his eldest
and fondly loved son, who was Hrst Lieutenant of
tho narriss Lana An exchange gives the following
particulars :: 20 - = ,s .T... ..g :
Nearly two years ago, the father, then residing in
Texas, had written repeatedly to the son, then on
the coast Of China, suggesting the principles that
should Determine his course in the then approach
ing struggle between the North and the South Of
the United States and saying that he could not dc
tate to one so long obligated TO act on his own judg
nlent; and that TO decide - he might such was his
con1denes in his high consciousness he would con.
tnue to regard him with the respect Of gentle
man and the affection Of father; but that II he
should select the side of the enemy, they would
probably never meet on earth, unisss, perchance,
they should meet in battle. ieaa'.
The father has served nearly eighteen months
eastward Of the Mississippi and through unsolicited
orders arrived at Houston, en- route for Ssn Anto-
MO, late at night Of the 80th ult whom hearing Of
the intended attack on the Harriet Lane aboard Of
which he had heard was his son, also placed there
simply in the order Of Providence he solicited per-
mission to join the expedition, in expectation of
nursing or buryng his son, whose courage was
obliged to expose him fatally to the equal daring Of
ordered by the General to keep look out from
house top for all movments in the bay. As soon
rs daylight enabled him TO see that the Lane had
been captured, by permission Of the General who
knew nothing Of the expected nesting, he bsstoned
aboard, when he was not surprised 70 find bis son
mortally wounded. Wading through blood, amidst
the dying and the dead, he reached the YOUTH pale

Mn. Eprron:-I suppose that you have seen the
order OF Gen. Smith, Commanding in the District Of

from every twenty five men In q company, that one
man from that number could have flrlough for
fourteen days. This order has beer, ,misconstrued
BY our Colonel and Brigade Commander. who say
that the Gen'l Com'dg In this Department t'meant
nies only Who had no desertsrs nor none absent
from that company without leave, Sod consequently
there are only two compsnies in our regiment from
which men could be furlouyhed, because the other
eight companies have some desertsrs or men absent
without leave. Now, II this Is to be the case that
the men cannot get furloughs, because there are
some deserters in their companies think 1t will be
q long time before they got them, for there will
always he some absent without leave. ,i.,
1t Is just that because . few unpatriotic cowardy
men have deserted their companies, having been in
the service only few months, that those who have
been In the service of their country nearly two
