Then we steered south to the Southwest pass of the Mississippi, and thence headed up the river to New Orleans. The whole number on board is 1,200. A large number have been sick -seasick.

In the west, where the great struggle of the year is to open, ‘we have prol ly massed in five grand 1 armies a fc of not less than 300,000 | men. General Rosecrans is on the eve {of a great battie near Nashville General Grant is opening a base of operations from Memphis. General Sherman's great expedition has de- scended the Mississippi river. Gen- eral Curtiss remains at Helena ready to co-operate whenever his_services are most needed. General Banks is already working his way up from New Orleans. Probably the first gift of the new vear will be the entire opening of the Mississippi river and the redémption of the whole south- west. If this glorious result is achiev- ed, it will matter little if Burnside spends the winter at Falmouth. We may also expect the capture of the principal seaports now in the hands of the rebels. Preparations have al- ready been made to some extent for attacks on Charleston and Mobile. Moreover, we may anticipite that our navy so swiftly increasing in num- bers and sower will before long suc- ceed in sweeping the rebel marauders from the ocean. In short, the aspect of affairs along all our lines on land ang sea is sufficiently promising to inspire the most exuitant hopes for the future. Connecticut Flag Over Baton Rouge.
