To Hdj. -Gel. Dir, Netc- York:
Official dispatches from Gen Candy have
been received to-day, showing the com
pletc success of an expedition sent out by
him from Vicksburg to cooperate with Gen.
Sherman's operations, and cut Hoods com
munications with Mobile
Gen. Candy also reports the probable
success Of another expedition from Baton
Rouge, under command Of Gen. Davidson,
the details and object of which it is not
proper now to disclose. When last heard
from Davidson was reported as having
caused quite panic in Mobile, and to be
devasting the country generally. Lient.-
Col. Earl, commanding special party, was
severely wounded, aud fell into the hands
Of the enemy at Fayette, Miss.
The Richmond papers of to-day confirm
the reported capture of Bristol by an expe-
dition supposed to be under the command
of Stoncman and Burbridge
Also the surprise and capture of Glade
Spring depot, on the railroad thirteen miles
south of Abingdon, Va
They also contain Gen Hoods official
report of the battle of Franklin, in which
nv 'ShIl'"iShSIo thI lOoS vi
officers and brave men, anon whom he
enumerates Maj aj.-Gen. Cleburne, Brig. Gems.
John Williams, Adams, Gest, Stroll and
Cranberry, killed ; Maj Gen. John Brown,
and Brig.-Gens. :. Carter, Manigault,
Quarles, Cockeril and Scott, wounded, and
Brighten. Gordon taken prisoner.
They also state that on Wednesday Gen.
Sherman carried Fort McAllester comman-
ding the entrance to the Ogeechee River,
by storm, and that the capture Of this posi-
ton puts Sherman in communication with
the Yankee fleet, and necessitates the rein
forcement Of Savannah.
The dispatches of Gen. Candy, SO far as
is proper for publication, and the extracts
from the Richmond papers giving Hoods
official report of the battle and our success
in Southwestern Virginia and in Georgia,
are subjoined.

to write another. Only think of it, the edi-

while TO read a document that was prepared
for his special reading, and then to spread
that fact before oil of the readers of that
widely circulated paper. How can the
President bear such neglect from the liter

friends buy up and destroy all the issues of
