‘•Landing of the army is progressing favorable at Bai

Orleans, Detroit, Castine, ’Wasp and Suwanee shelled the
vicinity before landing. Wc made a demonstration at
Cabanas, to engage the attention of the enemy. The Tex

one man killed. Ten submarine mines have been recov

a partial landing of the troops wa.- effected today, and that the landing will ba
