The editor Of. the. Selma -Dispatch~of- the
25t6 learns from the editor of the Montgom-
cry Mail ON Wednesday night last; inteili-
gence of the most cheering character from our
army operations in Mississippi. The editor
OF the Mail is just from the froat aud reports
general retrogradc movement of the foe, the
result Of which will be ar.pia restoration of
tue ground lately abandoned by Gen. Pclk's
army. The refoubtsble Forrest has also
c1me down with an eagle swoop upon the
b:igard Grierson, driving him eight miles,
with more than ordinary bavcc aud confusion
AT this stage Of tho fight Gen. Lee was
within foar miles ofa junction with Forrest,
which was doubtless made, eventuating in
still further destruction TO the Yankee forces.
That the threatening attitude of the foe has
been greatly lowered ard his boastful menaces
relieved ofan the alarm theyat first created
iii the minds Of our commanders will, we
think, be made apparent in day or so BY q
new disposition Of toops, the details Of which,
though not unknown to u.s., cannot be dis
:losed. In conclusion, NE a'ay say the gloom
which hss lately enveloped our cause in Mis-
sis:ippi has changed ts sombrc hue, and in
s'ead CT defeat and despair we have now high
hopes and inyigorated energies.

pra;seworthy villagers, every part perfect in itself,
aud all parts minglng together In most melodi-
Gus harmony of sweet and delicious sounds.
Charming ladicp-heavcH bless them-came for
ward, peerless in their loveliness, and laid their
gems Of enhancing melody at the feet of wor-
shipping and arpreciativc audience, for the bene-
ftof our needy soldiers. The music was in Itself
a rare treat, and the FARGO took all hearts by
storm. No veterans of the boards could have
accomplished more, or haye represented the diff
fersnt characters to greater adyartsge. Then our
precious soldier boys, endearod to evcry heart
by their badges of honor aud thousand other
sweet and sacred ties, they too came forward to
contribute to the evenings enjoyment, and assist
fer the benefit of their dearly loved needy COM
rades still in the field. No ono could witness thi,
part of the entertainment without dimnoss OF
tho eyo, and heart fall Of sympathy. " Free
and Easg," was feast in itself, sung rs it va,
by one of tho greatest :avorites in the Army or
out Of it.
Altogether, tho evenings entertainment sur
passed any thing Of tho kind eyer attempted in
our village.
The proceeds, which were unexpectedly large,
were, We understand, Immediately handed over to
the Soldiers Aid Association to be applied for
tho rolisf of our troops. May God bless NIL such

Shesmas's Expedition.

4 gentleman Who arrived in Mobile Wednes
day night, says the Advertiser and Register
of the 18th, confirms in general the accounts
from Mississippi, and adds some interesting
items.
He reports on the authority of Yankee
prisoners at Enterprise, that Hurburt's corps
is retiring on Yszoo City, and McPhc:son's
on Natchez. The prisoners attribute the fail
ure of the expedition to the fact that Grierson
and Logan were unable to make junction
with Sherman a Meridian. We do not un
derstGad i.ogan's whereabouts, bat Grierson
Forrest whipped Grierson sounGly 1T Tiobee,
taking considerable number Of prisoners,
and tie litter re;rca!ed in the direction ot
North Alabama. The report Of h:s being ct
Aberdeen is not full snbstaH:iatr d. tht ugh
there is :, rumofthat he has burned the town.
The damage done to The Mobile and 0hio
railroad extends from Iaudcrdale to two miles
below Quitman, distance Of forty six miles;
al the bridges and trestle work being destroy
cd. and tie track torn up for miles at inter-
vals, as is elsewhere stated.
Everything at Lauderdale Springs was
destroyed.
The Southerp road is comp,etcly torn uo,
from Jackson to Meridian.
Our informant states that the enemy com.
mitted few depredations upon private proper
ty, beyond helping themselves to provisions.
At Quitman they took bed c'o.hing, but their
excuse was that they were Inisinformed as
to the distance, aud came without blankets,
expecting to return the same day. They are
supposed TO have carried of about 300 ne
groes, selecting the likeIest, and in one or
two instances driving back some lots that they
did not consider eligible.
Some persons about Enterprise took the
Yankee oath, and accompanied them on their
retreat, bat this YES entirely voluntary, 10
attempt was made to enforce it. 4
The brigade that visited Quitinan convcrs-
ed freely Of their plans, and inquired if there
was not an attack going on upon the forts
below Mobile. They understood that to Be
3 part Of the programme, the object being to
divert the Confederate forces. They said
they had no intention of moving against Mo-
bile. and their excursion opuitman was only
for the purpose of destroying the bridge over
the Chickasahay, to prevent trooAAirom com.
ing up the. rosd. Their plan, As gathered
from their movements and conversation, aud
from the statements Of prisoners, was. after
uniting With Grierson and Lngaa to move
upon Selma, aud Montgomery. Accordirg
to the prisoners, their next scheme is to has
ten back to Grant and march upon Columbia,
South Carolina.
