The dispatches sled 10 light upon the
whereabouts Of Sherman One reports him
returning to Vicisburg, and another that,
after remaining brief time ut Meridian, he
pushed northward towards Columbus and
Aberdeen, and. ia about to invudc Georgia,
after forming d junction with Logan, to opcr-
ate against Jobnston's flank. Whatever
may be his designs, It is sufficiently ascer-
tanned that he has caused the destrue-
tion of the Mississippi & Alabama
Railroad, nnd- that destruction and
devastation l,ave followed in his wake. He
has inflicted a most damaging blow upon the

evidenced by the rebel dispatches. Blazing

brilliant and daring exploits OF the War,
aplcndidly executed and fertile in
tic most important results. Al
though he has undoubtedly failed
in tho attempt to capture Richmond, owing
to the superior force which met him, he has
cut Lee's communications and supplies, des
troycd IN immense amount of property, and
safely reached Gen. Buffers lines aftera spir-
Itcd engagement near the rebel capital His
raid, like that Of Gen. Custar's, will be set
down as amongst the boldcst dashcs Of the
young blood Of our army, for neither Kilpa-
trick nor Cnstar have get reached thirty.
Their raids, like those Of Gems. Smith, Ave
ill, Sherman, and Seymour, although they
may full in their prime object, are yet of the
most important character. Millions Of prop
