Beyond the fact that Grant's sappers and miners are at work to blow up our works, there is nothing new. A courier from Port Hudson, with dispatches to Gen. Johnston, arrived last night. He reports that the garrison is in fine condition and spirits. Banks's force is estimated at 20,000. It is also reported that he has abandoned the idea of storming the place, and gone to ditching. Official dispatches from Milliken's Bend state that our attack upon that place was a failure. The enemy had three lines of works.

Advices from Memphis state that the wounded on transports are still arriving from Vicksburg.
