d. The Confederate Government has called for 32 more regiments. The Tennessee Legislature meets here to-day. An attack is expected on Columbus daily. Gen. Beauregard will defend it at all hazards. Federal gunboats are reported at Clarkesville this morning, on route to Nashville — It is doubtful whether a sufficient force can be collected there in time to defend Nashville. A fight in that vicinity is expected shortly. The latest advices from Col. Herbert state he was at Pratt's store, and that the Federals were between him and Kirkville, on the telegraph road, and that the Federal force was about 20,000. Heavy firing was heard at Fayetteville on the 17th inst. Generals Price and McCulloch were falling back on the 18th inst., before a superior force, to Boston Mountain. A fight occurred at Pratt's Store on the 18th, in which McRae's, McNary's and Heber's regiments were engaged. The enemy was repulsed. Our loss at the Fort Donelson fight during

Expedition in Louisiana. --About the 30th ult Governor Moore, of La., accompanied by Generals Taylor and Pratt, lest the Terre Bonne station, on the Opelouses and New Orleans Railroad, with about a thousand men — parts of Bisland's and Vick's regiments — to break up an encampment of the enemy at Boutte Station, on the same road, twenty four miles from New Orleans. The expedition was successful, and the result was sixty Yankees killed, one hundred and forty prisoners, and five pieces of artillery taken. Casualties on our side--one man wounded in the ar
that way, I am going home," replied the Yankee. Pickets will talk sometimes in spite of orders, and some good hits are made. It is asserted that four negro regiments are above Falmouth, but have not shown themselves yet. --Fitzhugh Lee had better make another raid. With this dark aspect of our Stafford prospect, comes the reputed assertion that we are to be incontinently shelled again. Hooker says he intends to take Fredericksburg certainly. He will probably attempt to cross at Pratt's, and endeavor to get possession of Hamilton's Crossing, to cut off Lee from his supplies. Perhaps he may get "cut of" himself. At all events, the agony and tooth ache of expectation will soon be superseded by the extraction of the painful member. Hooker will not use chloroform. You shall receive a full report of all particulars if I hear the reports of the guns. What makes it more probable that Looker will make a speedy advance is, that I am audibly informed there is nothing more exis
right places, citizens walking and talking ladies apparently and enjoying the novelty of a new excitement. Reports ald the Yankees had crossed below Harp Tan, two had two pontoon bridges, and were rapidly. A few cannon had been fired, but so far no musketry was heard. After spending an hour in exhausting all sources of information in Fredericksburg, I made a reconnaissance on the Telegraph road and the hills above flowison's. The Yankee sharpshooters are in sight between Bernard's and Pratt's. They have impudently pitched their flytents on this side, as if expecting to spend the summer, forgetting it is the unhealthy side. The number across at 12 o'clock was estimated at from five to ten thousand, and about fifteen thousand in sight on the other side drawn up in line of battle. The first party, crossed in boats in the darkness. I hear Gen. Lee sent reinforcements to the point of crossing night at 12 o'clock. The Yankees seem surprised they have been permitted to cross witho
point above Fredericksburg as the real routs of Hooker in his "On to Richmond" He has two roads out to Banks's ford, where Wilcox is ready to receive him. No Yankees yet reported in Fredericksburg. Barksdale's men are still there. The Yankees are preparing earthworks for guns near Pratt's. Their line extends from Bernard's to Alsop's, opposite Hamilton's Crossing. Our pickets and their's are scarcely 200 Yards apart. One of our shells yesterday scattered a party of officers near Pratt's. point above Fredericksburg as the real routs of Hooker in his "On to Richmond" He has two roads out to Banks's ford, where Wilcox is ready to receive him.

From Trans-Mississippi. Mobile, June 9. --The operator at Brandon, 8th, reports, on the authority of Col. Shad, from Shreveport, the following as official from Camden, Ark., under date of May 27th. "On the 24th Marmaduke engaged the enemy's fleet near Gaines's Landing. Capt. Jacobs boarded and captured the transport Lebanon. Pratt's battery did excellent service, crippling one gunboat seriously. The whole Federal fleet was repulsed and driven down the river. Price is reported-to be at Camden, and Taylor is below Alexandria.--Steele occupied Little Rock and Pine Bluff" [Second Dispatch] Mobile, June 10. --A special to the Register, dated Senatobia, June 9th, says that Canby has been appointed a division commander, and that Banks, Steele, and Rosecrans will retain their respective commands. Mower is reported to have defeated Polignac, on the 18th ult, on the Yellow Bayou. The Confederate loss was 800, and the Federal 150. Shelby was moving on Southwes
m he would likely be Tobbed of them by the guard, and volunteered to keep any such for him. Thereupon Mr. Baughman, handed over to him five hundred and five dollars and his watch, for which he received the following paper: "Received of J. W. Baughman one silver watch and five hundred and five dollars. "A. D. Peaty. "Captain and Provost-Marshal, Harper's Ferry." When Mr. Banghman was about to start from Harper's Ferry he applied for his property, and was coolly informed by Pratt that General Hunter had forbidden the return of it, and had, moreover, instructed him to inform Mr. Baughman that he must deport at once, and if caught in the Federal lines, his head should be shaved and he should be flogged. Of course nobody can be surprised that Hunter should steal after turning traitor to his native State. But while he is certainly not too good to do so, and has stolen a great deal from our people, it is not improbable that this Yankee Provost Prait pocketed the money
