We have received New York papers of Tuesday, the 17th instant. Gold was quoted at 218 1-4. The attack on Wilmington Renewed — the fall of Fort Fisher not yet heard from. The Yankees have not yet heard of the fall of Fort Fisher. A correspondent of the Baltimore American, writing from the fleet on the 9th instant, says: Yesterday morning, the wind having got round to the northeast, and the sun shining out brightly, we were blessed once more with a quiet sea, and our eyes were delighted also with the approach of the fleet of transports with the troops furnished by General Grant to co-operate with Admiral Porter's fleet in the capture of Fort Fisher. The first vessel that arrived was the flagship of the commanding general, which crossed the bar at once and proceeded up Beaufort harbor to communicate with the flagship of Admiral Porter.

The news. No official dispatches from the South were given to the press yesterday. There was a report that Wilmington had fallen; but it was untrue, and without any foundation. We have not learned that the enemy have yet made any movement in the direction of Wilmington. It will be recollected that refugees from Savannah, who reached Charleston on the 17th, stated that Sherman had sent one of his corps to co-operate in the attack upon Wilmington. This may be true, and the force which captured Fort Fisher may be waiting for this reinforcement to renew active operations. Sherman has been checked, and will probably be delayed long at the Combahee river, which crosses the Charleston and Savannah railroad midway between Charleston and Savannah. Nothing of importance has occurred on the lines in front of Richmond and Petersburg. Throughout Wednesday a truce to picket firing and artillery practice was, by common consent, observed on the Petersburg lines. The firing was resume

n or fifteen torpedoes — a portion of which were put down a week ago. He further states that William T. Lynch is acting as admiral of the station, and lives at Smithville; that Robert F. Pinckney is acting as commodore of the station afloat, having only a small tug, without any considerable armament, under his command; that the iron- clad ram, formerly in the river, got aground and burst open, and was dismantled of her engines and armor; and that the Tallahassee put to sea on the night of the 22d or 23d of December, with from six to eight hundred-bales of cotton on board, by way of the western bar, with a view to bring back a cargo of hard coal sufficient to enable not only herself but the Chickamauga also to put to sea on another privateering expedition.
