Natchez, Miss., May 1.
--A gentleman who left Alexandria, La., on Wednesday morning, brings intelligence that Banks is not now, nor has he been, nearer than fifty miles of that place.

He also reports that General Moulin, with 1,500 cavalry, gained the enemy's rear and captured and destroyed 175 wagons belonging to their advance train.
