he enemy commenced a retreat, which was admirably conducted. General Forrest pursued and engaged them a few miles north of Tupelo, when he received a slight but painful wound in the foot. Our loss in the several engagements will reach nearly 1,000 killed, wounded and missing, Yankees left at Tupelo say their loss, including deaths from diseases and desertions, was 1,700. Had the enemy come nearer to this place, who 2 our infantry would have been brought into action, we believe a victory as great as that of Tishomingo creek would have followed. The people of this portion of the State owe a debt of gratitude to Generals Lee and Forrest, and the gallant officers and men of their commands, which they can never repay. The destruction of property in the enemy's line of march far exceeds that of all other raids in North Mississippi. Families were left entirely destitute of provisions, and some had their clothing taken or destroyed. Harrisburg and Tupelo were both burned.

Over the portico entrance outside were the following inscriptions, the letters being formed with cedar foliage: "The House that Jeff. Built." "Welcome." The latter motto was arched, and, with the festoons, made a very beautiful appearance. Inside were beautiful stars and garlands of flowers, and over the exit at the back door the following inscription, surmounted by a star: "Exit Traitor." It was facetiously remarked by an observer that the motto was-- Down with the traitor, And up with the star. We understand that to Miss. Lee, of Pennsylvania, and Miss. Jennie Hudson, of Indiana, the party was indebted for those ingenious and appropriate devices. Very likely, for wit and satire for traitors, and cordial welcome to the loyal and patriotic, are characteristics of these whole-souled missionaries.
