tetas to take place at Vicksburg soon, or . ‘Gevalia Daily Granseript, ty and County Official Press WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 20_ Jacksons Ouns.—The information comes” througti rebel sources that Jackson, the Cap. . itel of Mississ'ppi, has fallen into Federaj hands. The rebels fought well,but were _ obliged to yield. The information is proba‘bly correct. Jackson ties sbout thirty-five miles directly east of Vicksburg, where the railroad from Vicksburg to Meridian crosses the railroad from Memphis to New Orleans. If we have a clear understanding of the oprations of our forces in Mississippi during the last two months, the communieations by railroad of the rebels through the State of Mississippi ate now, completely cut. No the relief of Vicksburg from the east for the ' qwant of the means of rapid communication. Grant, when heard from, was on the 11th inst. af Raymonds, a place on a spur railroad to the railroad running from Vicksburg to Jackson, and but twenty-five aiiles from Vicksburg. His forces are there for the purpose of making a land attack upon Vicks~ burg from the east, or to cut off supplies from reaching the garrison from the east.— Whether a combined ottack by land and wa« < ——— whether the operations of our forces will be directed to the prevention of supplies reaching the enemy ia their stronghold, remains to be seen. The well known fighting character of Gen. Grant gives color to the belief that the former is the most likely to be the course puraned. ‘We notice in ‘Castine's” letters to the Union that grave charges are made against Grant and Porter, which we cannot reconelle with the general satisfaction felt bere with the action of our forces in the Souths Weat. If Vicksburg falls these charges may be heard of no more; if, however, disaster results, the public will demand a sacrifice and the time of those commanders will have come. WASHOEWARD.—The rush to the Territory continués unabated. The stages come and go crowded. An exodus 1s witnessed which equals that of '49 to the land of gold. Silver is the rage now, and gold diggings are abandoned for feet in uticertain ledges one, ~ two, three and even ten hundred miles away. But the stages cannot carry all the adventurers. Men start off on mules, and some on foot for a silver hunt, leaving families, homeateads, wages, everything comfortable be» hind: * The State is being rapidly stripped of its laborers. . It is hard to find hands st good ~ wages te do the work that needs to be done hereabouts. In some cases we have known a man each day, to leave a job to go to Washoe, leaving his employer te hunt another. to take his place, and fiud him if hecan. Those who employ workmen must. be prepared to settle exch day night, for, two to one, that the crowd or a part of it, will take the silver fever and want to be off in the morning. — The departures from the county are-so ma. ny that it would not be surprisingif the vote ! of the county is not this year less than half it was formerly. It is not on account of any actual want of resources that the people are leaving this section, because it is a positive and well acknowledgod fact that for many. years, the prospects for making money at quartz mining have not been more. prowising than at present. It is a wonderful coincidence that at a time when every body. wants tobe off for the land of silver imagining he oan du better there than here, all the quartz leads, pretty nearly, in the country all at once are feund to pay. Old leads abandoned give forth rich returns, those worked constantly appear to pay better than ever, and new ones are struck frequently pe! promise to pay abundantly. Yet the rush for silver does not cease in the least. Westward the faces of Americans have been set for a century and more. The wave of cmigration is set back from the Pacific to produce concussicn, noise, froth and foam in Nevada Territory: iii Forres, who edits a paper at Unionville jn the land of silver, moralized on the status of a digger girl who came into the settlement She was dressed in flour sacks and other fab~ rics from provision stores, grageful as a statue, &e.

Yet the . thing has been done irrevocably. The Old . . os Jury Law.—The late Legislature made a new daw Yelative to grand and trial juries, which appears not to have been taken cognizance ‘of by taany persons. Ite features may be obnoxious to some, but those that will be exclaimed against most, are: those midst essential to the purification of the jury system. The new law requires that a grand or tria! juror must bea resident of the tuwn~ ship three months. This prevents carpet sack’men from getting on juries. It requires that a juror shall be assessed for 1eal or _personal property on the township or county as< sessment roll, which insurcs a jury of sub~ stantial citizens. . It bars from juries per~ sons convicted of crimes and professions gamblers. The law also makes stringent provisions for drawing jurors by lot from a list of the qualified citizens. © New Srate Mape.—The making of a pew State out of Western Virginia has been done with no considerable flourish and Dominion is divided, and a portion of it is attached to the loyal Union as with hooks of steel.
