General sherman's Movement In Mis-.
siaslppl.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. f0.-A private letter from
Vlcksburg on the Sth instant, from an eye
witness, says McPherson's corps crossed the
Big Black river, hfteen miles east OF Ylcks-
burg, on the 7th. Hurlbut's corps took par
allel route from Vicksburg, and crossed Mes.
senger's Ford five miles above McPherson's q
pontoons. Each column was fourteen miles
long. The force sent up was to prevent a
flank movement to cut of our trains. Iron.
clads will try to reach Grenada, TO cooperate
with Smiths cavalry, and drive Forrest's rebel
command toward Canton, where Bishop Folks
conscripts arc. Jackson is said to be fortified
with cotton bales. This letter establishes the
falslty OF specials from Nashville To New York
stating that Sherman entered Jackson on the
9Th.
A Memphis dispatch of the 12th Gays that
General Smiths cavalry expedition was camped
last night at Holly Springs, and probably next
will be heard from through rebel sources.
