Interesting from New Mexico. --The Jackson Mississippian, of the 17th inst., says: We learn from a passenger just through from Texas, that an engagement between 1,700 of Gen. Sibley's brigade, and 2,300 Federals, occurred on the 10th ult., at Glorieta Canon, New Mexico. Col. Scurry, commanding, had his men posted in the Canon through which the Federals were compelled to pass to communicate with Fort Craig. About 600 of the enemy were killed and wounded, and less than 100 of Scurry's men — among whom, however, were Majors Raguet and Shropshire killed, and Lieut.-Col. Sutton mortally wounded. Gen. Sibley's A. D. C., Capt. Ochiltree who was bearer of dispatches from Gen. Sibley, reported to our informant that the result of the battle of Glorieta would be, the surrender of Fort Craig to our forces, and the occupation of all New Mexico and Arizona by the Confederates.
