Hough fell back to Fort Union, where a dispatch was mmand. The troops for the junction ordered by Gen. Canby arrived at Galesta on the 9th, in advances of Gen. Canny, and learned that the Texans had abandoned Santa Fe, and were retreating from the territory. Major Duncan, of Gen. Canby's staff, who was in command of the advance guard, had fallen in with a large party of Tains, provisions, &c. The health of the rebel army was not good, and many had died. One hundred and sixty sick and wounded had been left in the hospital at Santa Fe. A large number of merchant trains were passed en route to this city.

is too much supineness and disinterestedness in the management of naval affairs in the North Atlantic squadron. Until this is remedied, little may be expected of our fleet. The Merrimac and four rebel gunboats were distinctly seen this morning anchored between Craney Island and Norfolk. It was confidently expected that they intended to pay us a visit to-day, but they did not. A large rebel flat-bottomed boat has been busy all day to-day conveying troops from Craney island to Sewell's Point. The regimental banner of one of the rebel corps was seen distinctly as they were being ferried across the Elizabeth river. The rebellion Settled in a Hurry. The New York Herald again closes up the war on this continent, and makes the wonderful prediction that two weeks will bring the matter to a close: It is a singular fact that at the present time, with a million of Americans arrayed against each other in arms, we are yet within a month, or perhaps two weeks, of the end

d refused to fight, when Beauregard detailed four regiments to guard them as prisoners. It was not known that Gen Habeck was in command here, but it was the general impression that Gen Buell was at the head, and that our army was retreating of Nashville. Col. J. C. Kelton, A. A. G., arrived here to-day, relieving Captain McAllen who, was obliged to go to Cincinnati on account of the health. Louisville, April 29.--One hundred and seven prisoners, captured by Gen. Mitchell, at Huntsville, arrived here to-night, en route for Camp Chase. Cairo, April 29.--The steamer Bacon, which left Pittsburg last evening, has arrived here. Generals Halleck, Buell and Grant have moved their headquarters near the front of our lines personally superintending all the details attending the advance of the whole force, observer which were hourly expected.

General McClellan telegraphed to Flag-Officer Goldsborough the facts, but the message, up to five o'clock P. M., had received no practical answer. The James river is practically closed to our fleet so long as the Merrimac and her consorts have the freedom of Hampton Roads. The only way we can raise the blockade is by blocking up the narrow part of Elizabeth river with stone laden bulks, thus barring the door against any further annoyance and allaying anticipations of attacks, from the fancy rebel craft. The measure is perfectly feasible at any time the Flag- Officer so directs. Until then we are liable to be attacked here at any moment by the Merrimac.

is now encamped in sight of the enemy's camp fires. The rebel deserters who came in on Saturday say they had heard rumors of the fall of New Orleans, which were, however contradicted. The pickets occasionally exchange shots. A later arrival to-night reports that our whole army is moving forward slowly. Contrabands and deserters coming within our lines repeat the previous statements about Corinth being evacuated.

Five companies of our cavalry and a skirmish with the enemy's cavalry two miles in advance of this. The enemy retreated. Five of them were killed--one a Major.

General Sibley, commanding the rebel forces, had sent to Colonel Relly to open negotiations with the Governor of Sonora. Colonel Reilly tendered troops to enter Sonora and the Apaches, for whose service he asked the right of way over land from Guayamas and Arizona, and also the privilege of purchasing supplies at Mazitlan. The Governor entered into a long correSonora and the Apaches, for whose service he asked the right of way over land from Guayamas and Arizona, and also the privilege of purchasing supplies at Mazitlan. The Governor entered into a long correspondence with Reilly, and sent a special messenger to the Governor of Sinaloa on the subject of his mission. No definite arrangements appeared agreed upon, but Reilly received courteous treatment from the Government officials, and at last accounts had arrived at Guayamas, where he boasted he had been far more successful than he had hoped for.
