MExru1s, Aay :, via CA1no hay g.
We haye information that Gen. Grant las

Valley, On Wednesday noon, Grant WAS

,specia1 Dispatch to tho Chicago Tribune.1
CAIRO, May s.
From passengers and other sources, I gather
the following facts: On Wednesday night
last, tug attempted to run the blockade at
Ticksburg, towing two barges loaded with
conlmissary stores, and defended with hay
bales.
Shortly after dark, she left lIilliken's Bend,
and steamed past the upper batteries in safety,
but on arriving at the lower ones, hot shot
we're fired, setting the hay on fire. In q few
moments the flames enTe1oped both bsrges
ard tug, and all were consumed.
Respecting the fate Of the crew and passen.
s,er.. fifteen or twenty in all, We hare two
distinct stories. One is, that taking to small
boats, all were safely landed on the Louisiana
Elore. The other is that all except one were
lost, The rebels continne to hang round
G.ceuyillc. As the steamer Ruth passed that
Mace on her last trip down, she was fired into
by musketry, but no harm was done.

FROM ROSEcRAkS' ARMY.

fSpec!sl Dispatch to the Chicago 1ribune.1
ArnrREEsBoEo, Mays.
The situation is unchanged. The weather
has improved. The designations of Col. 6. P.
Smith Of the 14th Illinois, and Of Lieut.. Col
Jacob Ruckstuhl of the 4th Kentucky caval-
r., have been accepted.
Morgan and Wheeler, with all their rebel
cavalry, are reported to have goneto Liyings-
Ton, which is twenty five miles east Of James
town, and on the south side Of the Cumbes-
land. If there are any Yankee soldiers in
that quarter We shall probably hear Of lively
times. The rebels say Carter Is i,f the Ticini-
t. Of jamestown.
Avery fine organization of the coutrahands
has been ordered by Provost Marshal General
White, for the control and employment ofthe
cont1abands and refugees in this department.
The negroes here hare hitherto been under
no organization Of any kind, and hare too
frequently been badly abused, while compara-
lively but little labor was obtained from
them. The plan which has now been adopt
ed with regard to them was successful in the
operation Of the Pioneer Brigade under Gen.
Morton. There are at present about :, 1000
contrabsnds in this department. These are
to be Immediately organized into companies
Of thirty each, and loyal Tennesseeans are to
tc placed In command Of each company
Capt. Roundcs Of the 9Th Michigan infantry,
Las been selected to command brigade
formed from these companies.
The negroes will be drilled as soldiers, but
fer the present will be armed only with pick
axes and shorels and spades. Thus organ
lied they are to be used in performing al
sorts Of work upon 10 to1tihcations, and every
Kind OF labor, Of which there is usually 60
much to be done.
An army pioneer brigade will thus be re-
leEed Of much heavy labor now performed
by it., and its own members will devote them
Eelves more exclusively to the mechantca
branches Of their business. Arrangement
for paying this new brigade will be mad

While the news of Thursday dlsheartened |
the Union men and elated the Copperheads |
and secessionists, the news Of yesterday eln-
All day Thursday the Copperheads came ont
Of their holes and stood upon the street cor
ncrs, chucklIng to themselves over the sup
posed defeat Of Hooker. It YVES not a do1eful
lamentation, not feeling Of qualification that
this man or that man personally had been de-
feated, but the result Of unqualified delight
that the cause Of the Union had suffered. Oc-
casionn1ly, one more rash than the rest, would
give vent to his feelings in public manner.
Such an instance occurred on Dearborn street,
and an instant and rapid flight alone saved the
traitor from the rough treatment Of the crowd.
Another was loud in his praises Of Vallaudig-
ham, when he was requested to stop BY Union
men. He persisted, however, and delivered
vollcy Of opprobious epithcts upon al Union
men, when strong hand seized him By the
throat and shook his treason out OF him.

/ hang round hotels and saloons, still more
| desplcablc Northern secesslonists, the 7erita-
| BILE Copperheads, sinking about watching an
| opportunity to sting, gave full vent to their
