sT. JoUIs, July 19s-The Uaion publshes an
extract from . private letter, dated New Or.
leans, July 7th, which says: "Last night staff
officer told me that 1000 troops would start
from this city and below, In ocean steamers,
to-day. They take fifteen days rations and
Ammunition" ..i
There is large number OF additional gum
boats in Lake Ponchartrain, and more vessels
have been added 10 the feet of Mobile. 30 me
think this expedition is for the capture Of No
bile, so as 10 possess the Alabama river and
establish base Of supplies for Sherman at
Selma, while others believe troops are destined
for Fortress Monroe.
This force may be designed to cooperate
with Slocum's expedition from Vicksburg,
which has again been recently reinforced and
are again marching into Mississippi.
Rebel accounts OF Slocum's expedition TO
Jackson, Mississippi, claim that the Federal
column under Gen. Elliott were attacked at the
junction of the Port Il udson and Rodney road
on the 5th, and repulsed with great slaughter
the road for miles around being ,strewn witt
dead negroes, horses, and guns.
This doubtless refers to the Maine brigad
and two regiments Of negroes, which marched
from Rodney on the 4th aud were attacked b!
five brigades of rebel cavalry and one OF infan
try, and after fighting nearly all day the rebel
were driven of. Our troops returned to thei
boats. Our loss was about $50 killed, wounde'
and missing.

nicated by sparks from locomotives TO fences,

The same state Of things OK sts along the entire
