eHee OF the 18th inst, says Gen. Smith S
command began crossing the river opposite
Grand Ecore that day for an overland trip
to Vicksburg, it being understood that
Gen. Grant had sent orders for Gen Smith
to return to that place.
The rebel prisoners say that they had
$4,000 men in Saturday fight. They lost
1000 men i'll that fight who were left on
the field.
Our loss on that day wa, 1900. Our
wounded were sent to Grand Ecore. Our
killed were buried by the cavalry.
The same correspondent says Gen. Smith
protested against the retreat from Pleasant
Hill after the victory of Saturday, wishing
to pursue the retreating rebels, but Gen.
Banks ordered the return of the entire
army to Grand Ecore.
1t is difficult to tell what the result of
the expedition will be. 1t will require some
time to re-organize the army. All the
forces at Alexandria have been ordered to
Grand Ecore, and fears are entertained by
