From the North.Federal operations on the coast. We are enabled to present to our readers the official reports of the naval operations on the coasts of Georgia and Florida, received at Washington a few days ago: Official report of Com Dupont. Flag Ship Wabash, off St. John's Fla., March 19, 1862. Sir: I had the honor to inform the Department, in my communication of the 13th inst., that I had dispatched a division of my forces to Brunswick, under Commander S. W. Gordon, consisting of the Pocahontas and the Potomac. The vessels crossed the St. Simon's bar on the 8th instant, and anchored at sundown within two miles of the forts commanding the channel. On the following morning, commander Gordon, with his division, moved past the batteries, which he soon discovered had been abandoned, and immediately sent Lieut Commanding Batches with the armed boats to take possession of the batteries on St. Simon's Island, and Lieutenant Henry Miller, of the Mohican, with a suita
front. The Yankee papers, since the evacuation of Manassas by the Confederates, have been entertaining their readers with all sorts of legends, which they profess to have derived from Virginia farmers and old ladies in the neighborhood. The Boston Traveller, however, seems to have become somewhat disgusted with the sport of practicing upon Puritan gullibility, and says: The account of the mutiny of a Kentucky regiment, and a fierce and bloody fight between them and an Alabama and Georgia regiment, last January, no doubt has its foundation in some discontent or disturbance such as often occurs in an army.

The metal of which cannon are made --The appeal of Gen. Beauregard to the people of Tennessee to furnish metal to be cast into cannon for the Confederacy, having elicited the voluntary contributions of the patriotic men and women of the South, the following letter from Adjutant Gen. Wayne to a lady of Georgia, containing valuable information on the subject of the composition of gun metal, will be read with profit and interest: If Gen. Beauregard, in his appeal to the planters of the Mississippi, meant anything more than to arouse their slumbering patriotism to active exertion, he wanted the tin of which their balls are partly composed. We have the copper, but for the fabrication of brodes, (commonly, but erroneously called brass guns,) we want tin. That you may understand this, I will tell you that science has determined for guns, as best, the proportions of nine pa 's of copper to one part of tin; and for bells seven or eight parts of copper to three parts of tin.
