Fighting in Mississippi. Mobile, July 8 --A dispatch from Jackson, dated July 7th, says: Last evening we drove the enemy from our left, and renewed the fight early this morning. The fighting has been very hot throughout, and the enemy were severely punished. The enemy were closely pursued to Clinton, where, owing to recent long and rapid marches, and the jaded condition of men and animals, the pursuit ceased. Our loss was 150 killed and wounded, among whom was Gen. Gholson, severely though not dangerously wounded. Six captains were killed. We captured 23 prisoners, who report that their train was burnt to facilitate the fight. The enemy's loss is unknown. They left 20 killed and wounded on the field. The majority of our troops were raw and had never been under fire before.
