The Daily Dispatch: August 24, 1863., [Electronic resource], From the Southwest. (search)
From Mississippi. Atlanta, Aug. 21. --A special to the Appeal, dated Canton the 20th, says that Grenada has fallen into the hands of a Federal force from the Yazoo, and another from North Junction. The rolling stock, of the New Orleans Railroad was at Grenada. The enemy met no opposition. Major Chalmers, in the absence of Colonel Slammers, fell behind the Yallabusha and fought the Yankee raiders three hours, when, our wagons being safe, and the Yankees from the South threatening our rear, we evacuated Grenada. The Yankees burned the rolling stock and captured Major Chalmers and a party of men. One-quarter of the town was burned. Fearing that Jackson was coming, the Yankees retreated precipitately. Both the large and fine railroad bridges over the Yallabusha were burned. General Hatch is reported dead. [The foregoing is all the translation the agent can make of the dispatch, which is almost unintelligible.]
