TEE NEW WESTERN CAmrAECN

Gen. Sherman expedition II now 20 !ar adj
yanced that the Western papers seem to think
no harm will come from publishing pretty full
details Of It's composition, and even hints as to
its destination. A heavy cavalry force is already
sweeping through Central Mississippi. Infantry
from various points have gathered in great num-
bers at Vicksburg, the army corps winch form
its nucleus having been reinforced by the gar
risons Of all posts along the river, the holding
of which is not a military necessity. Under
command of Gen. Mcpherson they are moving
eastward upon Jackson. A third column OF
considerable strength is marching from Natchez.
The three are expected to unite at some point
not yet indicated, under Gen. Sherman's com
mand, and together to enter upon a campaign
in the heart of the enemy's country.
The advance of this formidable force may
furnish clue TO the sudden retreat Of Johnston
from Dalton. He held position near that
place, of great strength 10 resist an attacl, III
front, but il seems to be the characteristic Of the
campaigns through this vast territory that no
position is deiensible against a movement in
flank. II Gen. Sherman starts his columns from

the foregoing will do for to-day. Wc state
them in The expectation that the Legislature
will act on the principles suggested in the char
tcrng of new roads, and will afford relief in the
case of those already existing. An impression
seems TO prevail that the street railway corpo-
ralions claim to own and use for their own i'd
vantage not merely the streets of New-iork
but the city itself, and the Legislature. Proper
action on the part of the members of the lat
ter will vindcatc their legislative independence
and will relieve the city from its present subjec-
ton to the mcrccnary control Of domnecrlng
and practically irresponsible corporations.

Temperance Convention.

One OF the largest and most interesting
County Conventions that has been held in
this county for years, came off on Thursday
was filled to overlooking at the hour appoint
ed, o'clock p. NJ. Quite number of the
old veterans in the cause We're present, who
seemed to be impressed with the Importance
of taking more decisive measures to stay the
tide of intemperance that is flowing in upon
US at the present time.
The meeting was called to order by Mr..
Strout, of Standish in the absence of the
President and opened with prayer by Rev.
Mr.. Adams. c. A. Stackpole, Esq, read a
letter from Gen. Dow, expressing his great
desire to be present, but stating he was pre-
vented by the feeble state of his health. He
expressed his great interest in the cause and
undying devotion TO the great principles OF
prohibition and total abstinence from all that
intoxicates. The letter was listened to with
interest, and general disappointment was
manifested that he was not to be present and
address the meeting.
The resignation of n. J.. Humphrey, Esq,
as President of the Association, was received
aud accepted, and Z. Ii. Starbird, ESQ.,, was
elected by reclamation TO I'LL the vacancy.
Mr.. Stackpole explained the cause of the
Camp Berry Band not being present,-said
they had been ordered to Washington unex-
pectedly, and if the Government had work
for them to aid in putting down the rebellion
could hoo ba Observation-Disclosures with GOOD
grace.
The meeting was addressed in the afternoon
by c. A. Stackpole, Esq, Mr.. John T. Walton,
Rev. DIR. Smythe, DIR. Parsons, Rev. G. Pearl,
DR.. b. Colby, Mr.. Strout and II. c. Barnes,
Esq, and in the evening by Mr.. +. n. Dow,
Rev. Mr.. Putnam. j. s. White, Esq, Mr.. j. T.
Walton, Rev. Mr.. Adams, Rev. Mr.. Chapman,
Mr. o. S. Beale, Mr.. +. N. Rich and c. A.
Stackpole, Esq.
The remarks had the true temperance ring,
and were characterized by earnestness of man
ner and a determination TO attack the enemy
wherever he may seek refuge, whether in the
low groggery, the ale and beer shop, or the
apothecary shops under the guise of a med
icine. Several patriotic and appropriate
pieces were sung by the choir, by which we
learned that good singing is not confined to
the city. The arrangements for the meeting
aud the accommodation OF the delegates from
abroad were on the most liberal scale, and
everything was done by Rev. Mr.. Adams and
the people OF the neighborhood for the COM
fort and convenience of those who attended
the convention.
A vote Of thanks, expressive OF the feelings
Of those who naItook of the Inequalities oil
the friends of temperance in Falmouth, was
passed, and the convention adjourned to meet
at Yarmouth on Wednesday, the 18th of May,
at O'Clock.

From Red Rirer-Thc Battles at Sabine Cross
Roads aud Pleasant HW - The Enemy
Uhipped-3 Rebel Generals KILLED.
CAIRO, ILL.,, April 81.
Adyices from Grand Ecore, Red River, up
10 the morning OF the 18th inst., have been
received.
The battle of the Sth was fought at Sabine
Cross Roads. The rebels were commanded
by Gems Magruder, Holmes and Taylor-all
under Kirby Smith. The enemy's loss on the
sth is placed at 800.
On the 9th another fight took place at Pleas
ant Hill, where, as previously stated, the reb-
els were most gloriously whipped and routed
by our forces under Gen. Smith, Gen. Banks
Commander-in-Chief. The rebel loss was
heavy, two to our one. Among their killed
were Gems. Mouton and Parsons.
After the first days fight Gen. Banks, being
short of rations, sent word TO the Admiral 10
return with the fleet, which had advanced TO
within eighty miles Of Shreveport, and was
preparing to blow up the steamer at New
Fails City, which the rebels had sunk Ia the
channel On the reception OF Gen. Banks
dispatch the fleet turned back, and on the way
down was attacked by large numbers of the
enemy on both sides Of the river, who at
tempted 10 capture the transports. A fight
ensped between the gunboats and rebels, in
which the latter were splcndidly repulsed,
with 800 or GOO killed and large number
wounded, while none on the gunboats were
injured. Gen. Greene, commanding the reb-
els, had his head blown off by a she'll
