Quite a number of troops have been concentrated in the vicinity of Vicksburg, and already our lines have been advanced towards Jackson, as far as the Big Black.

It seems plain that Gen. Sherman's troops in the field should, after securing Jackson, proceed duhaped themselves as to determine the now doubtful question whether Sherman should go on down to Mobile or proceed to Selma and Montgomery in go for what it is worth, is that with the indirect assistance of Gen.
