and with small loss, 250 prisoners, eight heavy guns, and two field pieces, fell into our hands, and all the munitions of war. The main body of the enemy, 5,000 strong under the rebel General Walker, made their escape. Highly important from Grant's Army. That very soft people, the Yankees, are reading news dispatches such as this we find in the New York Herald, dated Washington, March 30th.

I will chronicle a few. Lieut. Cols. Carter and H. P. Jones have been made full Colonels.--Colonel C. will remain with this army, and will have charge of the artillery of Rodes's and Johnson's division
