finite character from any quarter. Sunday was a day of rumors, as usual. Some had Washington, N C, captured, and Newbern closely besieged; while others had something less than a hundred thousand Yankees marching up the Peninsula. Seven deserters came into our lines in the vicinity of the White House and gave themselves up, and were brought to the city yesterday evening. They state that thirty thousand Yankees are at Yorktown and Gloucester Point, and about twenty thousand at or about Fortress Monroe No kind of importance, however, need be attached to their statement, though we are satisfied that the enemy have a considerable force in the localities named. They all tell the same stereotyped tale about being "dragged into service." In East Tennessee the Yankees are feeling their way towards the Virginia line. A force of about 800 white and negro troops attacked Gen. Jackson at Carter's station, 20 miles below Bristol, on Monday last, and were repulsed with the loss of a major

the junction of the Florida Central and Fernandina and Cedar Keys Railroad. It was supposed that the pending campaign in Virginia would draw this force to the North, but such is not the fact. The rebels must have much larger armies in the field than we credit them, or else they consider Florida immensely valuable to them. The New Haven Journal publishes the following extract from a letter, dater States ship Vermont, off Port Royal article: A large force sails to morrow for Fortress Monroe, I think Gen Vodgen, and Terry are attached to it; also, the 6th and 7th Connecticut, and the 1st Connecticut battery The 29th Connecticut, Col W C Wooster, have just passed our ships in transports for Beaufort, S C. Our fleet lies quietly at anchor, and we fear nothing but torpedoes, which abound in this vicinity. News has just reached us that the steamer South Carolina has captured a valuable prize down at Tybee, near the entrance to Savannah, Ga. The prize is a fine English iron ste

ntain very little news of interest: The Washington correspondent of the New York Post states that gigantic preparations are going on for the approaching campaign in Virginia; that General Grant is actively making his arrangements for a great battle, and that whilst it is not probable that the shock of arms will take place during the week, if General Lee remains in his present position, the latter has it in his power to force a battle at any moment. It he concludes to do so, we are assured the offer will not be declined. The State Constitutional Convention of Maryland was organized on the 27th--80 members present. Hon H H Goldsborough was elected President. Mrs Anna Nagent, Mrs Hary R Murphy, and Miss Mary E Seymour, have been arrested in Baltimore on the charge of disloyalty Mrs L V De Larianage, a widow lady of Spanish birth, with three children, has also been sent to Fortress Monroe on a similar charge. Gold closed in New York at 10 P M on the 27th at 177¾

n eight and nine o'clock on Saturday night, the A. H. Schultz and William Allison arrived at Rocketts, having on board three hundred and fifty sick and wounded Confederate officers and privates, sent up to City Point under flag of truce from Fortress Monroe on Thursday afternoon last. Notwithstanding the unexpected hour at which they arrived in this city, there were in waiting on the wharf several hundred of our citizens, anxious to extend a cordial welcome to the brave boys who have been so lt Point Lookout had been very Ill, and would not have been sent South on this trip but for his earnest importunities to return home to die among his friends and sympathizers. An accident occurred during the transit of our prisoners from Fortress Monroe to City Point, which came near resulting in the loss of the Federal steamer New York, and perhaps the greater number of those on board. While proceeding under a full head of steam, a large schooner ran into the after part of the steamer, ca
