Cess Rugglss and Chalmers, With s force Of
regular sad State troops, deemed sufficiently
strong to check then TIE other, Of mounted
infzasry under Grisrson, about five thousand
ssrOsg, is advancing South between the Mobile
and Ohio railroad and the Alabama State line.
Gen. Forrest confronted them a. one point, but
6sding sben IN 81 probability Too strong, be
fell back to West Point, Miss, whom Gen. Lee
ordered to join him. We prssame there is
no doubt BIZ. that tn principal portion Of cur
is concentrated a. West Point; and if
GrisTson's force Is IS reported, bat 5000 strong,
and he should continue to advance, he must
szrely be defeated
