er from a member of the Richmond Graye, written yesterday morning, says: "The guns at Fortress Monroe are now being spiked by Federal troops, and we expect an attack to-night. A gentleman just from the fort reports this as a fact." The writer adds in a postscript: "Fortress Monroe has just been blown up, or a portion of it. This is reported by a messenger," We give these as rumors, which may be confirmed hereafter. The Norfolk Herald announces the arrival of 250 troops from Georgia, and says: Two of the companies are from Macon, and are composed of the elite of that flourishing town — merchants, store-keepers, capitalists, &c., who have perilled their all in defence of the South, its honor and its liberties. The third, we learn, is from Columbus, and a fine looking band of heroes, who will do honor to their noble State. The following items are from the Norfolk Argus: A large number of slaves are busily working upon the batteries and other means of de

Business is partially suspended; the enthusiasm of the people is high; its tone is of the right sound — its echoes are, Æ Victis. It is reported that Pendergrass offered to resign to Commodore Paulding, who commanded the forces here and came up in the Pawnee. If he has been done injustice, I hereby retract what I have written; though I know he was in the Yard during Saturday, witnessing the destruction going on on that day. The work at the former United States Hospital is vigorously progressing. In addition to the embankments raising, there are 150 cotton bales. Fixtures for heating shot were erected yesterday, while I was on the ground. The true mechanics here deserve the eternal gratitude of the country. Gallant old Hopkins, and Parks, a true Irishman, and Southern in feeling, and others whose names I cannot give you now, are invaluable men, with clear heads and sin
