James Mathews, of De Soto, has brought intelligence, which may be relied on, that Gen. Marmaduke had fired on two downward transports a few miles above Helena, sinking one and capturing the other. A force of two regiments was sent up against him from Helena, which he completely routed, driving what of them was left howling back to their lines. Gen. Price is cutting out a road through the bottom for his artillery, &c., to Old Town, a point eighteen miles below Helena. A dispatch from Jackson to the Atlanta Appeal gives some extracts from late Northern papers: Burnside's corps moved on the 6th; whither is not known, but it is supposed for Vicksburg.

is work all done; his last, greatest battle gained, and from the summit of earthly honor and human admiration, our best and bravest should be called to come up higher. It is hard to say, "Thy will be done," when he is taken. There is no second Jackson. Like the aloe plant, it needs a century of growth to produce in perfect development such a specimen of manhood, such a combination of great qualities, in symmetrical proportion and adjustment Language can never portray the chieftain or expressstaining the grand and holy faith for which he prayed and fought and fell.

His spirit will still animate them, and the host of noble leaders left us continue to realize and illustrate as he did Nelson's proud motto: Palmam quimeruit ferat
