he following: Much excitement prevails, owing to a port that the Yankees are encamped, 3,000-8,000 strong, at Camp Bartow, and force on the farm of Uriah Hevenor, and Green Bank. The people here think they (the Yankees) will pass around our and come to this place, a distance of sixty miles from Camp Alleghany, to take possession of our Commissary Department at our place, where a large amount of previous are stored. Last night a messenger was dispatched Gen. Edward Johnson to Col. Goode's Regiment, camped near this place; also Col. Wm. C.

Railroad disasters. A terrible accident occurred on the New Orleans and Jackson Railroad, on the 27th ult. It seems that a lumber train, going down, collided with a passenger train, on board of which was the 7th Mississippi regiment, Col. Goode, en route for Columbus, killing twenty- five, and severely wounding twenty-six more. The company which sustained the greatest loss was from Amite co., Miss. The engineer of the lumber train, by whose negligence the accident occurred, has not been seen since the collision took place.--The N. O. True Delta says: The collision itself would be impossible to describe, so unexpected was it, and so fearful in its might. The lumber train may have been going at the rate of about fifteen miles an hour, and the soldier train about twenty.
