Mr. Russell in Mobile.

Mobile, May 12.--W. H. Russell, the correspondent of the London Times, visited Forts Morgan and Gaines to-day. He was accompanied by several prominent citizens.

Mr. Russell made several important suggestions to Col. Hardee, regarding the fortifications, gathered from his experience in the Crimea, and seemed well pleased with Hardee's command. He says Col. Hardee is every inch a soldier.
