Mobile, August 24.

--Fort Morgan is in the enemy's hands. Whether surrendered, or blown up, or evacuated, is unknown. There are conflicting reports, but nothing reliable.

A flag-of-truce boat visited the enemy's upper fleet to-day. The Federal exchange agent not having arrived, nothing was accomplished.

A special to the Advertiser, from near Aberdeen, on the 24th, says the enemy burned Asheville last night. Their advance force passed through Holly Springs this morning towards La Grange. Their wagon train crossed at Waterford last night. As they were about crossing, Chalmers fired into their infantry force yesterday, and a sharp skirmish took place. He captured three wagons and teams and five prisoners. Our loss, twenty. The pursuit was renewed this morning.
