He informs us that the Chickasaw Legislature passed an act of secession by a unanimous vote, about the 1st inst.

One more sufficed for the purpose, and this, the third, was directed to a part affording some stability to the superabundant mass. The missile weighing again 110 lbs., was, as before, fired from a 100-pounder gun, and it brought the whole battery, above the point struck, immediately to the ground.
