SOUTHERN NEWS. THE BLOCKADE OF N‘KW ORLEANS. The New Orleans Delta, of the Ilth inst., learns through letters received there from Berwick’s Bay, that in addition to the steamers Huntsville and South Carolina, now cruising between Atchafa lajft and Vermillion, another Lincoln vessel had arrived, and was engaged in staking out the chan nel of Atchafnlnya Tiver. Gen. Twiggs has de tached a competent force to go down and look after the matter. AFFAIRS AT NORFOLK. The Express publishes a letter dated Norfolk, September 9th, ae follows; Humor has it that to-norrow, the 10th, is tho day which the Yankees have appointed to make an attack on our forces in this direction. They have been promising this so long, that most of us axe tempted to believe that they don’t mean to attack us at all. All of our troops are getting impatient atthfc delay, and think that the Hessian* must have the poco tnwpo fever. Captain D. tit. Farraguet, of the Lincoln Navy, has deeded his property in this city to another party. Captain F. married in this place, and I believe was born here himself. 'Whether this transfer will prove valid or not under the retaliatory regime, is yet to be proved. The Officers of our Government will have to keep a bright look out for the property of traitors who go to fight the battles of the black knight of Illinois, or they’ll find themselvCß tricked of their game.” KENTUCKY The Louisville Democrat has a remarkable fa culty of stating a case in a few words: “ It is no longer peace that is to be sought in Kentucky, but safety. It is too late to ask for peace. The fiat has gone forth, declaring that Ken tucky shall be coerced into tho Southern Confede racy ; that there never was any other intention. The declaration is accompanied by the act of inva sion.” DESTITUTION' IN THE SOUTH, A late letter from Norfolk states that certain things cannot be bought for love or money. Among these are boots and shoes, especially for soldiers and women—the price of a common shoe of either sort, whenever there was a pair on sale, being $lO to $l5. Coffee was nearly as scarce, and domestic cotton cloth was nearly out of the market, and boro extTßOTdinnTy price*. The closing of Hatteras In let. through which what few supplies they had were obtained, will materially increase the luxury of these and other articles equally scarce. MSroaiTIUX OF PRISONERS “ A Planter ’ ’ of St. Mary, in view of the facts that the great number of prisoners now held ill Richmond are expensive to the Government, and are “ eating up the subsistence necessary for our own soldiers," suggests that they be put to some useful employment, and so be made to pay for their keeping, lie proposes that they be set to work as laborers on the unfinished portions of the Opelousas, Great 'Western, and Texas Railroad, lying between Berwick Bay and the Sabine. The Idea is Ingeni ous, certainly. THE rniVATEERS. The privateers have already taken sixty-nine vessels, of all descriptions, the value of which, ex clusive of cargoes, is not far short of $1,500,000. UEI’OIITK OF XOETHKRJf DESERTERS. Desertions are very frequent from the rebel army to Fortress Monroe. The principal cause of their desertion, they sny, is that they had been impressed into a servicetliey had no sympathy for, and made to fight those whom they were bound to by ties that never could he sundered. From them we learn thattheconditiim of the Secession forces at Sewell’s Point, Norfolk. Ac., is most deplorable: that much sickness of a dangerous type abounds; that they are only half fed. causing thereby great indigna tion throughout the whole army in that region on account of this outrageous and unendurable treat ment. They further assert that many of these same rebel troops are patiently awaiting the arrival of our national forces to join them, that they may co-operate in i4rikitig tt bloW AglllfiSl and its admirers, that will be terrible in its effects. All of this may not be wholly believed, yet the daily desertions now occurring certainly speak badly for the cause espoused by the rebels, and attest by living proofs that we are gaining ground. GEN. W OOL AND THE CONTRABAND NEOROBS. Major Cannon, of (Jen. 'Wool’s staff, arrived in Washington on Thursday night with despatches. Gen. Wool wants to Know what to do with the tic froes, upward of 2,000 of whom are now at Fortress lonroe. The President's orderamending General Fremont’s proclamation sets the whole question afloat again as regards negroes not directly em ployed in rebel service, who may seek protection within our lines. Gen. Wool is ordered to send to Washington all whom he can spare —the men to be put on the entrenchments, and the women in the camp kitchens, to be paid for their services. Be sides 2,000 at the fort, there are ton or fifteen on each of our men-of-war, which "sail from Hampton Roads, who get $8 a month and found. BOUT OF HEItELR IX CABELL COUNTY, WESTERN* VIR GINIA. On Thursday, the 12th, at 11 o’clock, a part of Col. Zeigler's regiment, stationed at Ceredo, Wayne county, attacked 250 rebels, who were drilling on the turnpike, 8 miles east of Bnr boursville, in Cabell county. The rebels fled at the first fire, leaving several killed and wounded. Eight prisoners were taken, among them William Hensley, their ringleader, John Lawson and Wil liam Hawley, son of old Patrick. Fifteen stand of arms, several horses, and two mules were captured. THE REBEL STEAMSHIP YORKTOWX Is thus described by a correspondent of the New York Tribune: I have been enabled to collect the subjoined par ticulars respecting tbc dimensions of the rebel steamer Yorhovw, recently converted into a for midable man-of-war at- Norfolk by plating her with wrought-iron plates one-quarter and one-third of an inch in thickness; Length on deck. 250 feet; breadth of beam. 34 feet; depth of hold, 9 feet G inches: depth of hold to spar deck, 17 feet; draft of water at load line before plating, 11 feet 6 inches. Her frame is of white oak, chestnut, Ac., which is fastened in the securest manner possible with copper and treenails. Her floors were moulded 15 inches, sided 15 inches, and her frames were 30 inches apart at centres! In addition to the above fasten ing, iron straps, diagonally and doubly laid, 4£ by 2 inches, ran throughout tho hull) making her one of the staunchest of her class of steamers afloat. She is fitted with vertical-beam engines, with cy linders 50 inches in diameter, and a stroke of piston of 10 feet. She has two fine boilers, and her wa ter-wheels are "0 feet in diameter, and of cast-iron. Her burden is 1.400 tons. She was built in New York in 3652 by Win. H. Webb. Her machinery was constructed by the Morgan Iron Works, in the same city. The commandant of this intended piratical craft is Captain Parrish, formerly of the New York nnd Richmond Steam Navigation Company, and her oth&x officers are men of the same stamp. You will observe that n vessel of tho dimensions given above, manned by a blood-thirsty crew, would commit much depredation upon our commerce, and destroy millions of property, if once let loose upon the seas. She is represented as being well supplied with heavy guns on her sides, and rifled pivots fore and aft. Her guns oro well manned? and the ex orcise of the men in perfecting them in their use has been long nnd severe. She is also well supplied with swords, pikes, cutlasses, pistols, Ac.: in fact, her entire equipment is excellent in every respect. She is tolernnly well provided with stores and pro visions ; her machinery works well, and she is now ready for a long cruise to fob and murder. This she wiil do, if ever she is permitted to escape from her at present very safe retreat. We earnestly hope this will never occur, nnd now, ns attention is called to the fact, nn excellent watch will be kept upon her movements. WAR NEWS. THE REBEL ARMV Little is known «t the North, or even at the South, of the organization of the rebel army. The report of L. P. Walker, the late rebel Se cretary of War (General Braxton Bragg of Louisi ana, having just been appointed in his place,) pre sented in tTuly last to the Provisional Congress nt Richmond. showed that up to that time one hun dred and ninety-four regiments and thirty-two bat talions hod been accepted into the service of the rebel States, besides various detachments of artille ry and companies of cavnlry not then organized into regiments. In accordance with hi? suggestion, that large additions should be made to the rebel army, the Congress passed a law authorizing the President to call for additional troops, so as to make the entire fore consist of four hundred thou sand men. Since then each seceded State, and every one of the other Southern States, except Dela ware* not avowedly engaged in the revolt, has con tributed her quota to swell the increasing numbers, until now they claim that their army is composed of some three hundred avdfifty thousand men. But as there has been much sickness in their camps, and ns some of their regiments arc not fully organized, the New York Herald gives a table of the estimated strength of the rebel forces, which. it thinks is calculated upon a liberal basis. The estimates puts in the field one in every four of the men in each seceded State, between the ages of eighteen and forty-five, except the States of Geor gia. North Carolina, and Louisiana, from which wc have official statements of their exact numbers, Trhlch show that those States have less than one in six of their respective inale populations, between eighteen and forty-five years of age, at present in the service: Male Population between 18 and 45. Troop?. ... 106.000 24.000 ... 65.000 21,000 ... 10.000 4,000 ... 119.000 19,160 ... 20,540 ... 71,000 18,000 ... 122,000 20.570 ... 107,000 35.000 84,000 21’000 ... 221,000 60,000 ... 60.000 15.000 Alabama Arkansas Florida Georgia Louisiana Mississippi North Carolina Tennessee . Texas Virginia South Carolina Total seceded States 1.11C,00I) 250.270 Add to the number the rebel troops from three of the non-eecederi slave States Missouri.. Kentucky Maryland Total —And wo Lave »n aggregate of 202,270 soldiers in thc^service of Die bogus Confederacy* with their main body, or tm»re than one-half of the whole number, on the Potntnnc, and the remainder scat tered at different points in Virginia, on the scacoast, and on the Mississippi river. Even that is a liberal estimate. The Charleston Mercury, of September 10, speaking of the rebel army, uses this significant language; "Wo hare no idea that the half million of men that Congress has authorized will ever be raised, or the means for their support ever be required. We find it difficult to put an army of eighty thousand men together in Virginia, and eighty thousand men is enough, and we fonr more than enough, for any military use wo can put them to.** ILLINOIS TROui’S ORDERED TO WASHINGTON The Government has directed Gen. Fremont to send six of the Illinois regiments to Washington. These will be tnken from the Illinois troops at Cairo and Pt. Louis, and their places supplied with regiments from Chicago, Peoria, and Camp Butler. The regiment at Peoria, and the Douglas Brigade, nt Chicago, hnve been ordered to St. Louis; Cob Hovey’s regiment, at Camp Butler, to Ccntratia: and Col. Carlin's regiment, at the same camp, is to go southward, a? soon n& It Is equipped, which will be in the course of the present week. ARMV CORRESPONDENCE General Scott bus issued a general order stating that there arc irregularities in the correspondence •of the army which need prompt oorrectiou. It is highly important, he says, that junior officers on duty be not permitted to correspond with the gene ral-in-chief, or other commander, on current official business, except through immediate commanders. And the same rule applies to correspondence with the President direct, or with him through the Se cretary of War, unless it be by the special invitation pr request of the President. The Memphis Appeal say? the following seizures have been made (or rather tho following arms have been stolen by the rebels) since tho inception of the Southern rebellion Baton Rouge Alabama Arsenal. Elizabeth. N. 0... Fayetteville, X. C Charleston Harper’s Ferry.. Norfolk Other places T0ta1.... The Stote aims previously purchased by the States, it says, amounted to Alabama 80,000 Virginia... 70,000 Louisiana 00,000 Georgia 120,000 South Carolina. -17,000 Mississippi Florida.. “ The "rand total,” says the Charleston Mercury Of .Tune 27, “ thus amounts to 707,000 stand of arms, besides 200,000 revolvers, which are said to bo on hand at various points. The abovo estimate docs not include the arms owned by the States of Ten nessee, Arkansas, Texas, Kentucky, Maryland, and Virginia, which would increaso the number to about 1,000,000. Besides this, there are thought to be about 2,000.000 of private arms.” It is very doubtful, however, that the number stolen and the number purchased by the States is near so large as those figures indicate, or that there are in nddition 2,000,000 private arms.
