The Daily Dispatch: October 26, 1863., [Electronic resource], 100 dollars reward. (search)
Mobile, Oct. 24. --Maj. A. S. Rose arrived here yesterday, on his way to Richmond. He passed through Louisiana and Texas on his way. He does not bring much news from west of the Mississippi. He heard nothing on the other side of our lines of the great defeat of Gen. Banks. Houston papers, of the 30th ult., state that Sabine Pass was being rapidly put in condition to receive the enemy. The gunboat Clifton, captured in the recent grand victory, had been put in first-rate fighting trim. She and her armament had been tested, and found of the best quality. News from Brownsville to the 16th ult. had been received. The French had not then taken possession of Matamoras. It was stated that they would shortly seize one or two other places besides Tampico, and were expected to move on Monterey by way of Victoria. Gen. Slaughter had arrived at Brownsville via Havana. President Davis has just arrived here from Mississippi, and will review the troops this evening.
