The Anticipated attack on Mobile.

The following dispatch from Major-Gen. Maury is all the information we have with reference to the demonstrations of the enemy against that city:

"Mobile, Feb. 19--2 o'clock P. M.
"Gen. & Cooper:"
"Farragut has not renewed his attack on Grant's Pass. His fleet lies off the Pass in the sound. Weather too bad for action.--Sherman's corps is not advancing down the Mobile and Ohio Railroad. No landing has yet been reported in the direction of Pascagoula.

D. H. Maury, Major-Gen."
