from here by Gen. Heron has been heard
from. They occupied Clinton ard Jack
son, La, after some heavy skirmishing,
in which we lost ten or fifteen killed and
wounded, inficting loss on them of 30
or 40 and some prisoners, including two
officers. The roads over which our forces
passed were in terrible condition, and
bridges had to be built over nearly every
bayou. A rebel force is concentrating at
Liberty under Generals Hodge and Scott.
Our cavalry was under the immediate com
mand of Generals Bailey and Davis.
Information received from Meridian
states that Forrest was at Macon last
month in command of about 900 men
Great activity prevailed in that Depart
ment, and Forrest was rapidly adding to
the efficiency of his forces.
