Wasbington, March 16 Admiral Porter encloses a communication from Lieut. Com mander Thos. Q. Selfridge, of the gunboat Conestoga, operating on the lower Mississippi, in which he states that, having learned there was a large amonnt of cotton belonging to the rebel government, UDder a small guard, not far from where the Old river intersects the main levee, he landed on the mommg of the 13th of February, with forty-five seamen and some contrabands, and, after a march of six miles, found the cotton, and would have captured the guard, but for the accidental dis charge of amusket. On their way back they were considerably annoyed by Texan cavalry. He captured 32 bales of cotton, 20 mules and several horses, and took prisoners Col. C. H. Tyler and Major J. F. O’Brien, of the rebel provisional army. The day previous he destroyed 24 hogsheads of sugar at Cross River, which were too bulky to be taken on board. Admiral Porter also encloses a report from Lieutenant Commander Green, of the IT. S. Bteamer Rattler, dated off Hurricane Island, Feb. 16th. He says, I have informed you in a previous letter that detachments of about 200 negro troops have been stationed at Water proof, making it a depot for negroes, cattle, &c. This hasaroused the indigation of the rebels and on the 14th a force'of about eight hundred cavalry of Harrison’s command made an attack Bpoh the post, driving in the pickets and press ing the troops very hard. Fortunately for them *he Forest Rose was present. Capt. Johnston immediately opened a rapid fire upon them, which drove them away. He got his vessels under way and shelled the enemy wherever his guns would bear. They hastily retreated to the woods. This affair lasted from three to five o’clock P. M. At eight P. M. the enemy attempted to make a dash into the town, but Capt. Johnston, who was well posted as to their approach, drove them back. Eight dead rebels and five prisoners were left in our hands. Our loss was five killed and two wounded. Captain Johnston says that some of the negroes fought well, but, for want of proper discipline, the majority did not. Lieutenant-Commanding Green arrived with the Battler, after the fighting was over. He then proceeded to Natchez, reported the facts to the commander of that post, and asked him to send us reinforcements. On the nest morning he despatched 200 men and some howitzer ammunition to Waterproof. Upon arriving at Waterproof on the 15th, he found that in the morning the enemy, who had been re-inforced in the night, and whose forces now consisted of two regiments of infantry, one of cavalry and four pieces of artillery, had again attacked the post. The Forest Bose, whose commander was ever on the alert, was ready for them. A few well-directed shells stopped them from plant ing their battery on the plank road,and drove them off in confusion. The attempts of the • remainder to advance were frustrated by the Forest Bose. Captain Johnston says “Capt. Anderson asked repeatedly forme to take his troops on beard and throw them across the river. Every re quest I declined and could only tell him to fight. After I got the enemy on the retreat, he felt more easy, and discontinued his re quests to cross. Ido not think Anderson was intimidated, but by the bad description of his officers and incapacity of his men, he became panic-stricken.” The ram Switzerland arrived about the close ®f the fight and joined thpm. The rebel loss, as far as is known, was seven killed and a number wounded, who were taken off. Several prisoners were captured, among ihem a Lieutenant, and taken to Harrisonburg. Our losb was three killed and twelve wounded. In the two days’ fight the Forest Bose expended 270 shells. Under date of February 16th he says «l have received a despatch from Johnston, dated the 15th, at 10 P. M., which says the rebels have made another and final attack on Waterproof. He sent a few shells, which caused them to retire.. They retreated toward Harrisonburg, burning the bridges behind them. Tne rebels cannot stand the fire of the gunboats.” Later, he says everything is quiet, but they have information that the rebels are making preparations for an attack on the contraband camp opposite Vicksburg. The negro troops at Waterproof have been committing many outrages; . FBOH EAST TENNESSEE [Special despatch to the Bulletin 1 _ Cincinnati, March 16.-A despatch dated Knoxville, March 16th, says there has been oome skirmishing near Morristown, but unim portant in its results.

Bramlette has just issued the following address to the people of Kentucky: , Fellow Citizens: —ln view of the disturb ance of the popular mind, produced by the enrollment of slaves lor the army; in Ken tucky, it is deemed prudent to make the fol lowing suggestions forthe benefit and guidance of the loyal people of Kentucky: “Your indignation should not move you to commit acts of violence nor. to unlawful resist ance. Standing, as we have stood and will ever stand, for the Constitution, the Union and the enforcement of the laws, we mnst repel the efforts of rebellion to overthrow our Government by our gallant soldiers in the field, and meet and correct unjust or unconsti tutional legislation by legal appeals to the con stitutional tribunals of the. Government, and through the ballot box in the constituted modes overthrow those who pervert or abuse the trust committed to them. “This is the only true mode of maintaining the Constitution, the Union, and enforcement of the laws. The mere act of enrolling the names of slaves does not affect any right of the citizen. No draft has been ordered nor do we know that a draft will be ordered. I may or it may not. We should abide by and maintain the law, and pursue the inodes pro vided for the remedy it affords. “If any violence or wrong to the person or property of the citizens be com mitted, to any officer or soldier, against the known laws of the land, make your accusation in the mode prescribed by law, and ii the commanding officers refuse or neglect it, use your utmost endeavors to correct the officer or soldiers under his command so accused, and band him or them over to a civil magistrate for trial. - . “When officially advised of the facts, the Executive of the State will, prefer charges and demand a Court Martial. In the Union, under the Constitution and in accordance with law, assert and urge your rights. It is our duty to obey the law until it is declared by judicial decision to be unconstitution. The citizen whose property mayfbe taken under it lor public use will be entitled, under the im perative mandate of the Constitution, to a just compensation for his private property so taken for public use. “Although tte present Congress does not do justice, yet it is safe to rely upon the justice of the American people, and an appeal to them will not be unheeded or unanswered. “Peace restored and the unity of onr Go vernment preserved, will drive to ignominious distance those who, in the agony of our con flict, perverted their sacred trusts to. the base uses of partisan ends and fanatical purposes. “Uphold and maintain your government as constituted, and obey and enforce its just de mands as the only hope of perpetuating free institutions. (Signed) “Tnos. E. Bramlbite, “Fhankfobt, Ky., March loth, 1864.” AHOTHEB UHIOH VICTORY IK HEW JERSEY [Special Despatch to the Bulletin. 1 Buslihgtow, N. J., March 16.—The City election yesterday resulted in a complete triumph . of the friends of the Union. The whole Union City Ticket, including Common Council, City Clerk, Treasurer, and other city officers, was elected by an average majority of IG2. Last year the whole Democratic ticket was elected by 30 majority. The result is most gratifying, and shows unmistakably the way in which the current of honest public opinion is setting. The handwriting on the Wall is plainly visible, and the people are determined that none who sympathize, in thought, word or deed, with re bels in arms or their Northern allies, the Peace Democrats, shall receive any token of confi dence in positions of honor, profit or trust. Boston, March 16.— Eight hundred soldiers, mostly veterans, belonging to New Hampshire, Maine and Massachusetts regiments, left jhere last night, by various routes, to rejoin. the Army of the Potomac. J The private subscriptions in aid of the peo ple of East Tennessee now amount to §64,000. The Journal states that F.’O. J. Smith was arraigned a few days since before the Maine Supreme Judicial Court, on a charge of adul tery, to which he pleaded not guilty, and gave bonds for his appearance for trial.
