On the 16th and 17th five transports ascended the river, filled with soldiers, and it is stated that a large body of troops have gone above Memphis, destined, it is supposed, to reinforce Rosecrans. Quite a heavy movement from the Big Black to Edwards's Ferry has taken place, some 3,000 having crossed. It is not supposed that this movement has any more important object than that of securing what cotton is left in that section — the ey can do but very little damage beyond what they have already done, and unless they come in much larger force — larger than they can spare, now that they are weakened by reinforcing expeditions on the other side of the river and sending men to Rosecrans--Gen.

Campbell installed as Governor of Tennessee. Col. Trusten Polk, formerly United States Senator from Missouri, with his wife and daughter, was captured at Bolivar Landing, Ark., on the 18th. Gen. Hooker left Washington Monday to enter upon active service — destination not stated. Gen. Slocum, it is said, has tendered his resignation. It is reported that the resignation of Gen. Burnside has been accepted.
