ter to leave it at Collierville, as the delay in his arrival at New Albany, where he should have been on the 14th, at the same time as Grierson, was the final cause of the failure of the whole expedition. He made impossible the timely arrival of the column in the vicinity of Meridian, and enabled Forrest to gain upon it an advance which was to prove fatal. The latter, in fact, had not lost a moment. Chalmers, travelling more than eighteen miles a day, was at Houston on the 16th and at Palo Alto on the 17th. He was entering the fertile region through which the Tombigbee flows, and which extends, on the right bank of this river, from Okolona—a region which the Federals wished to reach to devastate, but in which meanwhile his men and horses found all that was required to make them forget the fatigue of a long march. The troops led by Forrest and his brother had made like haste. During the day of the 18th the former reached Starkville, and the latter, passing more to the north, h

Muzza for Old Virginia. Major Joseph Selden, late of the United States Army, has sent in his resignation, and placed, himself at the disposal of his own State, Major Selden is a native of this city, and is as well known to our citizens generally as any person who ever resided in it. He was not only one of the most gallant officers in the whole Army that fought in Mexico, but he is personally one of the most popular men we ever know. He was with General Taylor, at the battles of Palo Alto, Resaca de la Palma, and Monterey, and was wounded in the first of these engagements. Transferred to the Army under General Scott, he was at the siege of Vera Cruz, at the battle of Cerro Gordo, at Jalapa, and at all the fights until Chepultepec. At the last named he was desperately wounded in a daring attempt to scale the walls, and thus became disqualified for active service for several weeks. Before he was able to take the field again, the war was over. Virginia never produced a braver o

At his death he was a Brigadier General, commanding a division, known as McCulloch's division, and Chiefly composed of Arkansas and Texas troops. The 3d Louisiana, Col. Hebert, was attached to this division. Col. James McIntosh, who fell at the same time, was from Florida, and was the son of that Brigadier-General, James S. McIntosh, who so greatly distinguished himself in the last war with England and in the Mexican war, at Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma, in which last fight the was dangerously wounded, afterwards at Churubusco, and lastly at the storming of El Molino, where he received a severe wound, of which in 1847 he died. The late Col. McIntosh was a cadet of West Point, and graduated in 1845. On the first of July, 1845, he was commissioned Brevet Lieutenant in the 8th infantry. He was a most accomplished soldier and officer, and his death is to be deeply lamented, as depriving our cause of one of its mo
