Pre-to leaving the Federal troops reported that they had been ordered to reinforce ihrir army at t'ybec, to which point they had been ordered. It is estimated that the Federal had in Jacksonville from 1.50 t6 men. The Confederates, our informant says, ha a camp bf troops some ten miles from Jacksonville, commanded by Col.

As soon as this was known, the Jacksonville Light Infantry and a Florida cavalry corps occupied the town.
