g the impatience of soldiers for a fight, and their murmuring at delay, I am disposed to think that Gen. Bragg fully understands his business, and will proceed to act when all things shall have been matured for success. The interest of the Confederate States Government certainly demand that there should be no greater delay than is absolutely necessary to insure success; for the expense of retaining so large a body of men here, not to mention the risk to life from exposure to an uncongenial climate, and the use of bad water, is a consideration of vital moment. I learn that the Confederate States flag has not yet been raised upon the public flag-staff of Pensacola city; certainly it has not made its appearance there since I have been here. Some considerable indignation is expressed by the soldiers upon this subject, and the Georgia volunteers only wait the proper authority to run up with their own hands the national emblem.

Affairs at Pensacola. --The Pensacola correspondent of the Savannah Republican writes (May 15) as follows: Affairs at the forts appear to remain in statu quo, though Gen.

There is a vague conjecture current that the dry-dock is very speedily to be removed to the channel, and that the attempt to do so

There is a vague conjecture current that the dry-dock is very speedily to be removed to the channel, and that the attempt to do so will be the signal for Commander Brown to begin the attack. Whether there be any truth in the conjecture, I cannot say. Notwithstanding the impatience of soldiers for a fight, and their murmuring at delay, I am disposed to think that Gen.
