The expeditionary force is nearly all embarked and concentrated at Fortress Monroe, or on the mainland between the James and York rivers.

Destruction of cotton in the South. The following is a copy of a despatch, dated Camp Mosre, La, May 8th, received in Richmond May 9: Hon. J. P. Benjamin The Governor of Louisiana directs me to inform you that all the cotton on the Mississippi river up to the month of Red river has been burnt, and all on its tributaries is ready for the torch. We issued a proclamation ordering its destruction in the event it could not be removed into the interior, but the spontaneous action of the people anticipated his order. We have traveled on the Red and Oshinski rivers since the fall of New Orleans, and find the sentiments of the people unanimous to destroy the whole crop, rather than permit a pound to fall into the hands of the enemy. The capital is fixed temporarily at Opelousas. Publish this if necessary, for the information of the people. T. C. Manning, A. D. C.

$20 reward. --Ranaway, from John Quarter's brickyard, in the city of Richmond, where he was hired for the present year, on or about the 15th of April, a negro boy, named Hunphesy. He is about 20 years old, well built, quite dark and full featured, with a small scar on one of his checks; no other scar or mark recollected. He generally looks down when spoken to. The last time he was seen he was on the York River cars, supposed to be on his way to Yorktown or some other place on the peninsula. He may have passed himself off as a free negro and hired himself to some company, as a good many soldiers were on the cars the day he was seen on them. The above reward will be paid if delivered to Miles C. Eggleston, in the city of Richmond, or to me, in the county of Hanover, near Old Church Post-Office. Wm. Parsley. my 9t--5 *

Gen. Bragg, constituted the Army of the Mississippi. At the same time, Gen. Johnston being at Murfreesboro', on the march to form a junction of his forces with mine, was called on to send at least a brigade by railroad, so that we might fall on and crush the enemy should he attempt an advance from under his gunboats. The call on General Johnston was promptly complied with. His entire force was also fastened in this direction, and by the 1st of April our united forces were concentrated along the Mobile and Ohio Railroad from Bethel to Corinth, and on the Memphis and Charleston Railroad from C
