White, the commandant of that post, has a good garrison, provisions for full ten months, plenty of ammunition and a stout heart. Fort Macon is not taken yet. Whenever a Yankee goes from Morehead, City to Beaufort or back again, the Colonel gives them a shot. We regret to learn that even in this beleaguered host some traitors were to be found, as there was at least one serpent in Eden.--Some few men, it is said, from Capt. Pool's company, contrived to desert to the enemy.

o a victory for the Confederates. The enemy, though far out-numbering us, and well provided with arms and ammunition, has been so crippled that he will be unable to attack us without large reinforcements, whereas Price and Van Dorn can march when and where they please. At last accounts they were at Van Buren, recruiting and getting ready for another forward movement. If the President would give Gen. Price a sufficient force, and place him in command of all our troops west of the Mississippi river, there would not be an enemy left south of the Missouri by the 4th day of July. Changing 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

Thirteen Lincoln soldiers, captured last week off Wilmington Island, by our pickets under command of Captain Crawford, have arrived in Savannah, Georgia. They belonged to the 46th New York regiment, and are all Germans but one. It appears that a number of the enemy, said to be between sixty and seventy men, were landed on Wilmington Island.

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. Nothing of the kind stated could have happened to a Kentucky regiment without having been well known long since, as Kentucky has been, nearly all of it open to us, and some of the soldiers would have been heard from in relati

The officers had appointed every Friday for the last five weeks for an attack on the fort, but from some cause unknown it was postponed.

The Charleston Mercury of the 3d instant, learns from a gentleman who had just arrived from the Confederate camp at Port Royal, that about one hundred Yankees, with two pieces of artillery, effected a landing at Port Royal Ferry on Tuesday morning, General Pemberton, to whom our pickets reported that the enemy were landing in force, immediately ordered his troops in position to attack.

After rifling and burning the camps, they started on their return to Hickman, when he made good his escape. Later from Nashville. The Memphis Appeal, of the 3d, says: We learn from parties who left Nashville as late as Saturday, that the gunboat and transports at that place had found it necessary to leave on account of the low stage of water. The army at Columbia had crossed Duck river, and had reached Mount Pleasant on Monday, on the road leading towards Savannah, where they would probably arrive today or to-morrow. McCook and Nelson were in command of the advance. Gen Buell was bringing up the rear, and had arrived at Columbia. From Island 10--official.

A correspondent writes to the Savannah Republican on late direct information: Price's veterans acquitted themselves with the greatest possible credit; and McCulloch's followers, up to the unfortunate hour when he and McIntosh fell, fought with the most determined resolution. Col. Rives, of the Missouri Confederates, and Capt. Churchill Clark, in addition to many other officers, are numbered with our gallant dead. Among the wounded on the other side, was General.
