WAR NEWS!
THE SIEGE OF VICKSBURG
f LAIIFRIP BLACK 'HAWK, HAINES' BLUFF,
YAZOO Bryan, May 20, 1863.
,r
T o the Hog. Gideon Welles. Secretary of the Navy:
ou the morning of the lfith, I came over to the
szeo giver to be ready to co operate with Gen
leaving two of the iron-clads at Red
ad Gram,
giver, one at Grand Gulf, one at Carthage, and
three at Warrenton and two in the Yazoo, which
l e g me a small force. Still I disposed of them
the best advantage. On the 18th, at meridian,
ftriug was beard in the rear of Vicksburg, which
&mitred me that General Grant was approaching
the city.
The cannonading was kept up furiously for
ow „, time, when, by the aid of glasses, I dis
cerned a company of our artillery advancing,
taking a position, and driving the rebels before
them.
I immediately said that General Sherman's di-
LieMn had come into the left of Snyder's Bluff,
gad that the rebels at that place had been cut off
f r om joining the forces in the city. I deatche
t he Delialb, Lieutenant commanding W alker ;
the Choctaw, Lieutenant commanding Ramsay,
sad the Benne, Petrel, and Forest Rose, all:un
der command of Lieutenant commanding Breeee,
„p the Yazoo to open communication in that
way with Gens. Grant and Sherman.
This I succeeded in doing, and in three hours
received letters from Generals Grant, Sherman
and Steele, informing me of their vast success,
and Asking me to send up provisions, which was
at once done.
In the meantime, Lieut. Candor Walker in the
Defialh, pushed on the Haines' Bluff, which the
enemy had commenced evacuating the day before,
3 0 a party remained behind in hopes of taking
sway or destroying the large amount of ammu
nition on hand.
When they saw the gunboats they ran and left
everything in good*order—guns, forts, tents and
einipage of all
- kinds, which fell into our hands.
Al aeon as the capture of Unities' Bluff and four
teen forte was reported to me, I shored np the
gunboats from below Vicksburg to fire at the
Lill batteries, which fire was kept np for two or
three hours.
At midnight they moved up to the town and
opened on it for abont an hour, and continued at
intervals during the night to annoy the garrison.
On the 19th I placed six mortars in position,
with orders to fire night and day as rapidly as
possible.
The works at Haines' Bluff are very formida
ble. There'are fourteen of the heaviest kind,
mounting eight and ten and seven-and a-half
inch rifled guns, with ammunition enough to last
a long siege.
ho the gun-carriages might again fall into the
hands of the enemy, I had them burnt, blew up
the magazine, and destroyed the works generally.
I also burnt np the encampments, which were
permanently and remarkably well constructed,
looking as if the rebels intended to stay for some
time.
These works and encampments covered many
acres of ground, and the fortifications and the
reze-pits proper of Haines' Bluff extend about a
mile and a quarter.
Such a net-work of defences I never saw. The
rebels were a year constructing them, and all
sere rendered useless in an hour. As soon as I
got ihroogh with the destruction of the maga—
zines and other works, I started Lieutenant-
Colonel Wilker up the Yazoo River with a ['effi
cient force to destroy all the enemy's property in
that direction, with orders to proceed as far as
Yazoo city, where the rebels have a navy yard
mil store-houses. In the meantime Gen. Grant
hos eloseirinvested Vicksburg, and has posses—
situ of the most commanding points. In a very
short time a general assault will be made, when
I hope to announce that Vicksburg has fallen
after a series of the most brilliant successes that
seer Attended an army. There has never been a
me during the war when the rebels have been
se successfully beaten at all points, and the pa
tience and endurance shown by our army and
nary for BO litany months are about to be re—
warded.
It is a mere question of a few hours, and then,
with the exception of Port Hudson, which will
follow Vicksburg, the Mississippi will be open
lie entire length.

Actin Rear Admiral Commanding the Missis
sippi Squadron.

From Capt. Stevens, a passenger, we learn the

The fighting at Vicksburg on Friday Was des•

REBEL REPORTS-SIX ASSAULTS UPON THE
FORTIFICATIONS REPULSED
CIXOINNATI, May 28.—8 y way of Murfrees
boro, we have rebel news that Pemberton has
repulsed six assaults on Vicksburg, bat they
greatly feared the next, which was about being
made. They also say that Loring cut his way
through at Haines' Bluff, and escaped The fact
is, that whoever commanded them was cut off
from communication with the forces in the'oity.
WASHINGTON, May 28.—The Richmond Whig,
of the '26tb, contains a telegram by way of Mo
bile, saying the latest iatelligence from Vicks
burg is up to Thursday night, adding, " The
enemy has been foiled in all his efforts. His dead
strew the ground in front of our works. Our
estimate of his loss is ten thousand."
CINCINNATI, May 29
Rumors and reports from Vicksburg are abun
dant. The latest definite Intelligence is a brief
despatch to the Commercial, dated "On the Field,
near Vicksburg, Saturday, May 23d," which
eaye "there is no fighting to-day. The troops
are resting from yesterday's assault. Our re
pulse was complete on all parts of the line. No
discouragement need be entertained as to our
final success. The city is closely invested and
must succumb to our attack sooner or later. We
are entrenching and building rifle pits. Cavalry
have been sent out towards Canton, to ascertain
General Joe Johnston's whereabouts. Our loss
yesterday was not far from one thousand. It is
tolerably certain that the works cannot be taken
by assault. A regular siege must reduce them.
Two weeks will probably be consumed." Gen.
Banks's army is reported coming up.
