MACON TELEGRAPH. ICfSDAY MORNING, APRIL 28, 186SL •gJJVEMENIS UPON VICKSBURG, p. enemy are now bent on a new advance ^Twksburg from the South. Some fifty miles below the beleaguered city, the River - debouches into (he main. i« a tributary apparently quite as large jjportant as tho Yazoo. Winding up the of this stream in a general Norlh- wtirse, the Federate would land about pjlcs east" of Vicksburg, in its rear, and anst the town on two sides. They also _ j having now ready for bombardment jgaogbattery which mounts eighty heavy ggns. This they will anchor in the ippi directly in front of the city. Thus by a cannonade in front, and a heavy bees in the rear, cutting oft’ all- coinmu* and supplies, they propose to carry gm by assault or the slower and safer ions of scigc and (amine, ft have intelligence to-day of the appoach Ihcir first reconnoitering party to our bal- u Grand Gulf, which protect the mouth the B g Black river. It is presumed that niaomg Urn gauntlet of our Mississippi on the night of the 16 th by four or of their gunboats and a few transports, intended to initiate this movement up the Black. To what extent that rivor is for ami what depth of water it affords to itaie these operations, we know nothing. |We presume, however, that SO obvious a point dm^r has not been overlooked, and that the iy will find the army of Vicksburg as lor them on the Big Black as it was the Yazoo. Meanwhile, the approach of weather warns the Federals that their itary operations in that region will not ad* of much further delay. »♦*— IffiB CONFEDERATE FLEET IN ENGL AND The Lrtidoircnmsponacut V f c.u«, tt«<r York [fates under date of March 23th, 1868, writes afoilows: , ’ .

Lord Hartingdon, in an election speech this week stated the whole case. He had just come from America, where he had traveled in both sec tions, and he was out and out Southern, and de clared that no union cotild be restored, nor could the South be conquered. This opinion was never so firm as at this moment. Is it strange that strong efforts should be made to hasten a result in which faith is so general ? If the statements publicly made, and apparently based on good authority, arc to be believed, the Confederates within a month will have at sea one of the most formidable fleets that ever steamed out upon the Atlantic. The steamers ^now preparing will be as fleet, as strong and as powerful as Brit ish machinists can make them. Yon have not be gun to fortify the Northern ports a day too soon. 1 cannot tell when the blow will fall; 1 only know that the Confederates here are jn radiant jubilation. They care noLliing about Vicksburg or Charleston. They expect to go home in “ninety days.” They care nothing for tho Union movement in the NoTth. They care not for recognition. Tho money mar ket has recognized them—that is enough. If cot ton is not king,it is at least a hard subject—has giv en them a loan of $16,000,000 with the offer of six times as much. That is giory enough. Tho foregoing is very valuable information, if t'uc ; but we doubt it very much. We are inclined to think that in the course of a few weeks, we shall hear that the British Ministry, responsive to Seward’s “warning” menaces, has shut up our embryo - fleet in their ports, and so dashed all prospects ot raising the blockade in that way. It will have been noticed by .diligent newspaper readers, ever since the war began, that these English and French cor respondents of the New York prints havo al most without exception appeared to take great delight in exaggerating every thing friendly to the Confederates and hostile to Lincolndom ; Vrith what object we are unable to say, unless perhaps to create a sensation or cxcito Federal animosity against the European powers. But if our fears should prove groundless and the fleet get out, we shall have somo lively episodes to the tedious progress of the war by. land during the present summer. DR. LEYBURN'S LECTURES. Mit. Cusny—Allow me to call tho attention of the people of Macon to tho lectures of Dr. Leyburn. Ho is a native of tho State oi Vir ginia, For a number oi years he edited a re ligious newspaper at Philadelphia, the Presby terian, with great ability ; and came at onco to the South upon tho breaking out of the war, and is now a resident at Montgomery, Ala., managing tho Domestic Mission ol the Presby terian Church, as Secretary of its Committee on Domestic Missions. T)r. L. is a learned and eloquent Divine and an accomplished scholar. He has visited Palestine and Egypt twice, and from personal observation and research—stim ulated by zeal, amounting almost to enthu siasm, in all that concerns, the scenes, re mains and population of the Holy Land, has acquired a fund of knowledge in relation to these matters, unequalled by that of any man on this continent. He is said to be a most agreeable and attractive Lecturer. He will deliver a series of five lectures on Palestine and Egypt, commencing to-night at eight o’clock in the Presbyterian Church. In these times ol anxiety and terror, and of**appr*hensions-{or the future, the Christian and the scholar, and indeed all classes of the people, will find relief and iuat»uetion in listening to them.

Dr. John Leyburn, formerly JaIv.I.Li tli» Pmol ivtnrii t i I'll n poll nt tliiu 1 jorrespondence of the Telegraph FROM BRIDGEPORT. Bridgeport, April 88, 1863. Mr. Clisby—I have never been ir. the habit of writing for the press, cor do I claim to pos sess any great faculty of clothing ideas with wordg, yet while I do not hold that it is right and proper that the public should know all that pertains to the army an 1 its 'movements, I have thought and still believe .hat a great deal may be made known to the public through the press in tho shape of nows i -etns which cannot prove detrimental to the Confederate States, and at the same time prove’ somewhat interesting to the reading public. Some of our wounded whe fell into the hands of the enemy at Murfreesboro’ have been ex changed, and daily returning to-their respec tive commands. They report m.uiy incidents connected with their pilgrimage North, and say that they endured much suffering and priva tion, partly the result of a want of proper at tention. What a pity that our leaders could not bettor provide for the treatment and wel fare of those who might well be numbered with the noblest of our ftrave defenders. I have just heard related an incident touch ing in its nature and wounding in its effects. In response to a_falber’a l»b- the fate of his son, who was wounded at tho battle of Murfreesboro', the Medical Director of the depot of Tennessee, writes that the son died in the hospital at Murfreesbro’ on the 8th of January, 1863, and was buried in the rear of the male Academy, but the precise spot was not designated, as the surgecn in charge was too much occupied to attend to such “litife matters” as specifically marking the soldiers' graves. “Little matters!” Is it a,“littlo mat ter” for the father, mother, brother or sister to know where rests the mortal remains of one upon whom their hearts and affections havo been placed? Is it a “little matter” to be de prived of the mournful gratiflection of visiting the spot where lies the hotly of a martyred son, husband or brother, to bedew it with the sacred tear of sorrow, or decorate it with tri butes of affection 1 Look at that stricken mo ther, or wife, wending herweary, heart broken pilgrimage to the field of recent carnago. Her son or husband is dead—what seeks she then? Ask. “Where lies my son—my husband ?” Will you reply, we know not, wo have no time to attend to such “ little matters ?’’ O, could being removed to the front at Wartrace and Shelbyville. An error hug existed for some-’ time in relation to the locality of the front by those outside of tho army. Shelbyvillc and Wartrace is the actual frent and center of our lines, locaied 18 milgs above this point and directly opposite to the enemy’s front. Mc Minnville which is about thirty miles distant upon one side of our front, is the right wing, and Columbia near the same distance on the other side is tho left wing, Tullahotna being 10 the rear, whero a greater portion of the army has been retained as greater facilities for communication and transportation were af forded. Rosecranz is said to be heavily reinforced, if we believe the reports of his prisoners, de« sorters or Federal newspapers, but he has show no disposition so far to engage in a gen eral fight by advancing upon Our lines, though the wily General has often, attempted to draw us from our present strong' position. Wheth er it will be policy with an inferiority-in num bers to advance upon Rosecranz, is a question of much consideration, but will it not be worso to allow him to receivo an army of reinforce ments in addition to his own and. then over whelm us by our delay ? ;No army ever left their quarters with higher J*Urmtu«UuU lO COQQUCr or die than did the veterans of Shiloh and Murfreesboro, upon their departure this morn- ing, nor was ever such a movement made with more order and precision, reflecting alike horn or upon the troops and credit to the officers. The late raid upon the McMinnville Railroad was made by 3600 of the enemy’s cavalry. After burning four bridges and destroying some public property thoy retired towards Mur- freosboro’, fearing to meet our forces who were in pursuit of them.

Our loss ono killed and fifteen wounded. Jackson, April 25.—-At 12 o’clock to day the enemy demanded the surrender of Enterprise. Gen. Loring arrived with timely reinforcements and tho enemy, reported at 600 to 1500 cas valry, retreated without a fight Somo 400 of tho Yankee cavalry left Starks- villo about two-days ago towards Bankston’s irtiio. They took the road by Grenada or Pottsboro. On their rotreat they burned tho Female Institute and other hospital build ings. Okolona.—Two trains have been burned at Newton. ■ Tho ongines were very slightly in jured. Tho water at Fort Pemberton has fallen four feet and is still falling two inches daily. Com-- munication is likely to be established. Tho enemy had advanced no nearer than Newton. They aro near Kosciusko. They burned Louisville and hung Dr. Covington. Gen. Adams telegraphs at half past eight this morning that he was wsiting tho return of a party sent from the Lake to open commun. ication with Meridian, and his train was with tho party. ThG department has reason to believe, outside of reports of its own officers and of correspondents of the Herald, that tbo guns of the iron-clads did serious damage to the forts. The fifteen-inch guns are readily handled on board Tcsscla.and the range is obtained as effectually as by guns .of smaller calibre. One of the fifteen-inch Dahfgron gone has been subjected to a test of over five hundred die- charges without any damages tints far. ' NOTICE TO ADVEBTISERM.
