FROM GRAND ECORE. LOUISIANA,

Chicago, April ia letter to the EUeRi1sg
Journal dated Grand Ecore, says our cavalry
had been driving the enemy for two days, but
in the forenoon of the Sth word was sent back
for an infantry support, and Gen. Ransom in
command of the Sd and 4th divisions of the 18th
corps, was ordered to send forward a brigade,
and did so at noon, himself following with the
4th division. After advancing about five miles
from where the Sd division of his command and
the 9th corps were encamped, the rebels made a
stand, and our line consisting of only 2, 400 in
fantry formed in belt of woods with an open
field in front and the enemy in the woods on
the other side.
Gen. Stone of Balls Bluff fame, Chief of Gen.
Banks staff, was on the field and took the di-
rection of movements. Gen. Ransom was in
favor of advancing only in force, but his wish
was disregarded.
After Keeping up a skirmish across this open
field for about an hour, the enemy advanced up
on us in overwhelming numbers, estimated at
10000. General Ransom got all the available
troops to the front and opened on them The
enemy lost heavily but advanced steadily and
soon made our cavalry give way, and our in
fantry fell back in few moments. The enemy
pressed us so closely, and the panic among our
cavalry was so demoralizng that the retreat be-
came a rout.
Gen. Ransom did all in his powrr to rally the
men, but finding it impossible without reinforce
ments, he made every effort to save the artillery.
While endeavoring to get the Chicago Mercan-
tile battery off safely, he was severely wounded
in the leg. Captain Cyrus E. Dickey, his ad-
iutant, was instantly killed. Our loss is large,
probably 1000. The Mercantile battery lost
all its guns. Captain White is prisoner, and
Lieuts. Throop and Mcbride are killed.
While the 4th division was falling back in
disorder, the Sd division, numbering only 800
men came up, and was Immediately routed, and
finally the 10th Army Corps, with 1000 men,
came up, formed in line, checked the enemy and
held them until we got all trains off, except that
of the cavalry, and our whole army is now fall
ing back here where it must wait and reorgan-
ize before proceeding further towards Shrieve-
port.
of the20th publishes extracts from private let
ter dated the 10Th, Ga day later than the above
which states that on the day after the disaster
to the 18th Corps, Gen. A. j. Smith, with the
18th Corps, engaged the enemy and defeated
them, capturing 1000 prisoners and 20 cannon.
This puts more cheerful face on the matter,
and we may hope that the repulse of the 18th
Corps will not seriously check the advance.
Later news confirms the above. In the first
days fight, out of 5000 men engaged on the
Union side less than 900 returned. On the
second day the enemy was handsomely whip
ped, we capturing about 1000 prisoners and Is
or 20 guns-about the same number we lost the
first day. The killed and wounded in the sec
ond fight was heavy on both sdes.-ED. jour.

Thus telegraphed Mr.. Bean to the Plain Deal
er What authority has he for telegraphing such

no person or persons of the Union party that
were engaged in destroying his office. In fact
the matter remainsa mystery to,every one ex-
ceptt to those who committed the act The man
who has the impudence and audacity to thus
slander our citizens, is capable of committing
any despicable act-even to that of destroying
his own property and then charging it to his
political opponents.

The Wrong Man FIOgged and Imprisoned.
A Washington special to the Commercial
says:
some months ago negro servant was charged
in New Orleans, by Paymaster H. r. Lawrence,

The negro was first numerically fogged and
subsequently sentenced to hard labor at the Dry
Tortugas for life. Facts have recently come to
the knowledge of the War Department fixing
the guilt upon Lawrence himself.
Secretary Stanton arrested him here four days
ago and put him in the Old Capitol Prison.
Two thousand dollars have been recovered and
papers found on him duplicating New York
contractor named Peck He was also brought
to the Old Capitol TO await trial by military
commission Orders have been sent to Tortu-
gas to release the negro.

The Rebels Capture Fort Pillow-Terrible
Rebel Barbarities.

The Rebels Capture Fort PillOw-Terrible
Rebel Barbarities.
On the 18th inst, the rebels 6, 900 strong at
tackled the garrison at Fort Pillow, only 600
strong-consisting of 200 white and 400 colored
soldiers-and after four hours hard fighting in
which the rebels lost heavily, they stormed the
works and captured our forces. This they were
enabled to do by the mere force of numbers.
Our loss up to the time of the capture was only
about % killed and 60 or 20 wounded But
the moment our men laid down their arms, the
rebels commenced an indiscrininate slaughter
and murdered about 300 of the garrison in cold
blood. They even murdered several cOlored
women and children. One white officer COM
manding negro troops was mortally wounded
and then nailed to a tree to die Some of the
wounded are said to have been burned alive
Six negro soldiers were buried alive three of
whom dug out and made their way into our
lines. The rebels dismantled the Fort and re-
tired.
The above statements seem like romance, and
that they could not possibly be true; yet the
evidence is conclusive that they are true, too
true. In another column it will be seen that the
President promises stern retaliation for this
act of the barbariaqs Of the South. God speed
the hour when it will take place.
