THE FLORIDA EXPEDITION.

A serious disaster mas overtaken the Flori.
da Expedition at its very outset. On the
Goth ult., our forces under Gen. Seymour,
met the enemy, $4,000 strong, fifteen miles
from Jacksonville, at place called Lake
City, when battle ensued. which was des-
Perato'y fought during three hours, when
our forces, overwhelmed by numbers, were
compelled to retire. Our loss is varously
estimated at from 500 to ] 800, and the enc.
my captured five guns. Gen. Seymour is
severely ccnsured for allowing his men to be
drawn into trap, and he has been placed
under arrest by Gen. Gilmore. Gen. Wedges
has been appointed to the command, and at
last accounts was on his way from Hilton
Head to Jacksonville, with reinforcements,
consisting of an entire division, when it is
hoped the disaster will be retrieved. We
still hold Jacksonville from which the enemy
cannot drive US

GREAT CAVALRY EXPEDITION.

General VIM. S. Smith not long since
started out from Memphis on a cavalry expe-
dition into Mississippi. lie returned to Mem
phis the last Of February, after having fought
seven battles, in which be was successful in
all but one, burned two million bushels Of
corn, two thousand bales Of cotton, captured
three thousand mules and horses, fifteen hun
dred negroes, and one hundred prisoners, be,
sides tearing up railroads, and inhicting other
serious damage on the enemy. His loss was
slight in killed and wounded, but he lost
quite number in prisoners. 1t is said that
this expedition accomplished more than any
other foray made into the enemy's country
during the war. Some that pretend to know
say that the expedition failed in its main OBJ
ject, which was to effect junction with
Sherman, but how this is, We do not know.

THE DRAFT NOT POSTPONED.

The reports Of the first Of the week that
the draft would DO postponed till the first Of
April are authoritively contradicted. Sever
al Of the States, if not all, have received in.
strnctions from the Provost Marshal General
to be fully prepared to commence the draft
on the 10th of March, and to make il in ev-
cry subdistrict which shall not have raised
its quota by the LIST inst. The samo author.
ity says that volunteers between March LIST
and 10Th may DO deducted after the draft
commences. This is good evidence that the
draft will take place in all Of the States that
have not filed their quotas at%he stated time.
