" "What a sorry failure they made of it-! 324 GEXEEAL GRAIST After our army had taken possession of Jackson, strong detachments of troops, infantry, cavalry, and artillery, were sent out on all the rail- roads divergmg from the city, with orders to tear up the track, destroy the bridges, culverts, depots, and water-tanks within a radius of fifteen miles. As I close this letter, the artillery of some of our advanced troops is heard in the distance. The rebels had nearly completed tho railroad br...idge, destroyed by our troops in May last, across the Pearl Eiver, near Jackson. This also is to be destroyed. Nearly every ehgible or flat piece of land in and around Jackson has been taken as rebel burial-grounds. From the thousands of graves your correspondent saw in his inspection of the city, the inference is, that ^he mortahty in the rebel army from May until our troops repos- sessed the city must have been very large. Some of the graves are graced with marble slabs ; but the majority had plain head-boards, giv- ing the age and date of the death of the deceased.
