GEN. SHEEHAN’S EXPEDITION.
Cincinnati, March 10.—The Gazette’s Cairo
despatch says that passengers by the steamer
Sultana report that General Sherman’s
Expedition penetrated thirty-five miles beyond
Meridian, destroyed all the railroads in that
vicinity, with 32 locomotives and a large num
ber of cars.
There was no rumor of any fighting after
leaving Canton, where Wirt Adams’s rebel ca
valry was encountered.
Gen. Sherman’s loss in killed, wounded and
misßing is about 500.
A large number of plantations were destroyed.
All, is quiet at Chattanooga and Knoxville.
GENERAL SMITH’S CAVALRY EXPEDITION.
Nashville, March 7. —General Smith, com
manding the late cavalry expedition from Mem
phis .through Mississippi, reached here yester
day. The following particulars are reliable:
The main purpose of the expedition,-"seven
thousand strong, was to destroy railroads and
army stores. It was not essential to join
Sherman, although desirable. The expedi
tion'was delayed ten days by heavy freshets.
The Mississippi State forces under General
Gholson, reported at 11,000 strong, began to
surround us in a region traversed by vast
swampsj and General Smith determined to re
turn. He tell hack slowly, ambuscading the
pursuing rebels. The Fourth Regulars routed
a rebel brigade three times at Okalona. At a
heavy skirmish at Joy’s farm, Col. Forrest,
brother of Gen. Forrest, was killed, .and Col.
MeCnllock, severely wounded. The rebels
were.completely routed. Our return was de
liberate. The rebel loss in various engagements
was not less than 600.
Our loss was not over 160, chiefly stragglers.
Gen. Grierson is highly commended for his
ability. The 2d, brigade, Col. Hepburn, com
posed of lowa and Illinois cavalry, distinguished
itself. The expedition was a very decided
success, though it did not accomplish all that
was desired. The damage done to the enemy’s
railroads is irreparable, and the destruction of
Government stores very great. ;
