Our cavalry, which is splendid, scout and picket the country to our side of the river; but as to what is being done on Lovell's side I can hear very little, as the country is deserted by the residents and the military of the two departments — Bragg's and Lovell's --do not act in any sort of accord or conjunction.

Letter from the Gulf shore. military preparations--the Alabama bowie — the men who carry them — the enemy on the coast — the Burnside expedition — the stampede from the coast--Major Hesse--his Court-martial and his smile. [Special correspondence of the Dispatch.] Mobile, Jan. 11th, 1862. The "dreadful note of preparation" is heard on all sides now, and the city begins to look as military as a camp., Some features skin to martial law are symptomatic of further progress to that end, for provost marshal regulations have been established by Gen. Withers commanding. The reserve city companies of organized and ununiformed militia are brushing up their information as to the manual of arms, and every citizen who has a firearm is brushing it up. The foundries are at work night and day making shot and shell for the forts and batteries, and forges are busied on a heavy State order for pikes, a painful description of cold steel which we will introduce to the attention of

ir sun-browned legs and feet, that look like barnacles, as they well might be. One prolific old lady can only ascertain whether all her responsibilities are safe by regularly calling the roll of them three times a day. Two or three would not be missed, in appearance, from that crowd of repetitions of themselves, but would leave a grievous void in the old lady's maternal heart. A court-martial has been busted for some time in investigating alleged abuses of his office committed by Major Julius Hessee, who, until removed from that post and cited for trial, was the big gun of the Quartermaster's Department here. I forbear giving currency to the various leakings out of the developments of the investigation, as I know not how much is true and how much is false; but these reports do not show much mercy to the Major, who is a long-time Israelite resident of the city. I trust he will be able to clear up everything which is alleged against him. The Major is one of the best-natured looki

Speaking of bowie-knives, I wish Butler's Yankees could have the privilege of examining an implement in that line which has been largely prepared for their entertainment in this region. Few of them but would be so well satisfied with what they had already seen in the South as to be willing to take passags department, and that its intent is either a grand attack on Pensacola, or on the harbor defences of Mobile, in conjunction with a land movement from the rear by Butler.

Department here. I forbear giving currency to the various leakings out of the developments of the investigation, as I know not how much is true and how much is false; but these reports do not show much mercy to the Major, who is a long-time Israelite resident of the city. I trust he will be able to clear up everything which is alleged against him. The Major is one of the best-natured looking, fat, chuckle headed little men you ever saw, and if he was ordered to be shot would smile about it, had as he might feel. But this is his falling — he can't help smiling. Nature put a smile on his face with set-screws, and there it stays. It has been there always, and is there now, as if there was no such thing in the world as a court-martial. Whether it is ever a smile more, or a smile less, I don't know, but it's a smile, certain — and "than" it is in fair weather and foul. Whether he enjoys it, likes or dislikes it, I don't know, but there it is, and he can't help himself. Choctaw
