In the four teen vessels have entered the port of Charleston and thirty three the port of Wilmington, N. C. During the same period $180,000 have been paid the Collector of the Port of New Orleans in duties on goods ile excitement to the commercial community of this city. It is known that one or more vessels, laden with tobacco, have sailed from North Carolina harbors to foreign ports. Those vessels either ran the blockade or were allowed to pass border of Lincoln. In either case, they are proof agains, the blockade.

The one, however, of these gentlemen is trifling, who no doubt, are grateful that the flames did not extend further. One of the Sisters of Charity, we understand, in this city, recently wrote to other sisters at a distance to come to their aid in nursing the sick soldiers in our midst, and who required a greater amount of care than they could give. The Sisters replied that they and requested Mr. Lincoln to allow them to come, but that he sternly refused them; and then our sick soldiers are deprived of great services by a tyrant President, who disregards the cry of mercy. One of the Sisters, we are glad to say, by dint of effort, succeeded in reaching Richmond, and will be with us in a day or two. We understand that soldiers were seen drilling at the Rip Raps a short time since and a drum and fife heard from that quarter, which leads us to believe that a regular company is stationed

Further from Europe.News by the steamer Canada. The advices by the steamer Canada are to the 10th inst. We append a telegraphic summary of the news: European political affairs are unimportant. The aspect of American affairs claim undivided attention. The London Times, in an editorial, takes the recent speech of Mr. Vallandigham as evidence of the charges that will be brought against President Lincoln if the South is successful. It says that only a victory by which the stain of Manassas may be effaced, and the South induced to come to terms, can secure the President from the consequences of having begun civil war.
