   ***** The Yankee force at Salaria and Dekew's Point is about 12,000 men. They are occupying Indianola with a small garrison, and have visited Lavacca. They did no damage there save sacking a few houses. The railroad from Lavacca to Victoria {the San Antonio & Mexican Gulf RR} is thoroughly destroyed.
