Steedman reports that the captured forts are magnificent, with covered ways and bomb- proofs. All that our troops had to do was to occupy them. They can be held against any force. Among the most efficient vessels in the fleet were to be found the new gun-boats, and of which the Navy Department had 22 constructed expressly for such purposes, and their success, both in the gale and under fire, was perfect.

Hunter arrived in town, and soon after called at Gen. Fremont's late headquarters, where a council of the more prominent Generals had been assembled to meet him. The interview lasted about an hour, and the only thing known concerning its results may be summed up in the fact that Gen. H. returned to his quarters, accompanied by Gen. Pope--both laughing very heartily at something which your correspondent does not even venture to surmise. Certain it is only that the excited and feverish sentiment of Springfield instantly subsided. The soldiers, who were passing hurriedly round their camps, at length remembered that tattoo had been sounded, and retired to their tents, (such of them as had any.) Many long and haggard faces gradually but steadily resumed their wonted aspect of circular stupidity, and all our streets were d

their success, both in the gale and under fire, was perfect. The negroes are wild and plundering their masters' houses. The whites have been driving the negroes away by force and shooting them down, but they still come down to the gun-boats. The moment Gen. Drayton took to his horse in the panic of the 7th, his two hundred servants went directly to the Wabash. This is worthy of notice, as putting down the nonsense that slaves were ready to fight for their masters. They surrounded Capt.

The trouble is, however, that General Fremont carried away with him Deputy Paymaster Phinney, with the military chest, containing $300,000, so far as known, thus leaving the army absolutely destitute of pay, with the exception of these favored. "body guard people," and the uncommissioned and illegally appointed staff officers, who were all paid off in full immediately after Fremont had received notification of his removal.
