By sone they are said to have been sent to operate against Forrest, and by others to be on their way to the Army ol the Potomac. Forty-four regiments of infantry and ten batteries who returned to Uhio to recruit, raised en , y five thousand in three months. It is reported that Men erscn relieves Thomas, who will be tent to another field. Also, that one brigade of cavalry and one of infantry have been sent forward to Chattanooga within the last few days. The Federals who went out on a pin Bering ex petition under Dodge have returned to Decatur. smith, commanding the other division of Logan's corps, is at Larkinsville, picketing Huntsville; and Stevenson on the railroad and river. Nine teen Federals in Confederate uniforms came to Triune Factory, near Summerville, and com mitted numerous depredations on Saturday. FIGHT DINAH RINGGOLD.

[From the Richmond Sentinel, April 7th.] The following table from the Treasury Depart ment shows the amount of the national debt funded up to yesterday, and how taken up by the different States: Virginia $43,455,700 North Carolina 17,008,800 South Carolina 29,680, 600 Georgia . 6t3, 437, 700 Flory a. 1,983,200 Alabama ... 37, 732;600 Marietta, Ga. , (J.

The aggregate thus far is, nevertheless, $196,083,600. Lynch burg is reported through the papers, at $9,750,000, carrying the amount above two hundred millions.

I [Correspondence of the Herald.] • New OnLeslie, Lee, April 1664.—Since the sailing of the Morning Star, oa Saturday morni ng last, we have had no reliable news whatever from the Bed river country, though the city is full of startling rumors. Passengers by the Ohio Belle, which arrived bere on Monday last, state that at the mouth of the Bed river there were rumors of a fight. Yesterday morning the Empire Parish arrived from-Port Hudson, bringing twelve rebel prison ers. (nine privates and three officers,) together with a large number of cotton speculators and blockade runners. They were guarded by members 'of the Corps d'Afrique, and marched from tae levee to 26 Carondelet street, where they are, now confined. As they passed through the streets the Sec essionists raised their hands in holy horror at the idea of white men being guarded by negro sol diers, but 'when they learned by inquiry, that a number of those guarded were "Yankees" and cotton speculators, they modified their tone, and said that it was good enough for them; but "nig gers" guarding the others was "awful." The twelve rebels were captured at a ekiratish in Point Coupee parish, which occurred on the 30th of March, between some of our cavalry and the 2d Louisiana. The rebels were repulsed and the twelve now in this city captured. A detective, who came down on the same boat, states that two or three mornings since, whilst about two hundred of our men were at breakfast, in the neighborhocd of Alexandria, and in the rear of the army, Dick Taylor suddenly appeared with a large force and surprised and captured the whoie. The True Deltabfy esterday publishes the follow ing from its special correspondent in the Red River country: ALEXANDRIA, March 29, ISM —I now send you a few lines to let you know where we are. We arrived here on Saturday morning, and went into camp about three miles above Alexandria, on the Bed river. Otir route lay over the same road we went last fall, through Opelousas, and then we took the Washington and Alexandria road. We were about ten days in making the distance—about one hundred and seventy-miles. The last two days our march was over some of the worst roads I have ever seen. It rained most of the time, and the mud was so deep and heavy that it was almost impassible to march. I. suppose you have received the latest news from here by the transports. The advance under Gen. Smith left here on Saturday morning for Shreveport, just as we arrived, and we have orders to move in the morning for the same place. - I hear that the rebels have an army of between twenty and thirty thousand, and that they will make a stand about fifty miles from here; but this is doubtful. It is thought here by those that ought to knew that the first stand they make will be at Shreveport, where it is said they are strongly for. tilled and have provisions enough to stand a siege for Several months. The gunboats— seven m all—have got over the shoals and will co-operate with the land forces. All the gun boats that could get over the shoals have gone. Major. General Ranks has his headquarters on the steamer Biackhawk, at this place. Our scouting and foraging parties are bringing in large quanti ties of cotton and droves of cattle and ponies. There are nearly two thousand bales of cotton here now, and •ths cry- is still it comes. The troops of the old 13th corps are in fine spirits and in good health generally. We send one hundred and thirty sick down on the Warner to-day to the hospital in New Orleans. 1 believe there were none of them dangerously sick. The Natchez Courier of the let Inst. says: The Washita and Red rivers are now open—the former to Columbia and the - latter to Shrevetort— if we are to believe reports to the effect that Shreveport has been evacuated. The rebel rams Shreveport and Mis)onri are re ported to have been blown np on the 26th nit., to prevent them falling into the hands of the United States troops. On Wednesday, Miirch 30, a squad of , guerrilas dashed into Washington, six miles from Natchez, in the hope of surprising the place, but werusome what surprised themselves when a larger Muted dt Union troops appeared and repulsed them with loss'. Four of the rebels—one as officer—were captured. , Admiral Farragut arrived here on Sunday even ing last in the Tennessee, Captain Giraud. I learn that the Admiral has transferred his headquarters from the Hartford to the Tennessee, so that the_ latter is now the flagship of the squadron. Fifty-eight rebel officers and two hundred and ninety -seven privates left this city yesterday morn ing on the Polar Star for the Red River, for the purpose of being exchanged. Arrangements had been made for the exchange of seven hundred and 11 ty. The remainder, however, will be sent on the next boat, as there was not room on the Polar Star for more than the number mentioned above. While they were embarking, and about to start for rebeldom, one of them gave three cheers for ''Dick Taylor," and ' , three cheers for George Washing ton, the first rebel." Your readers will probably recollect that thirty eight prisoners escaped one night a few Weeks since . from No. 2S Carondelet street, by cutting:a hole in the wall behind an iron safe or closet with their pocket knives, and passing out into Common street. Twenty more escaped a few nights since in exactly the same manner. The Mete had been filled up, and the sale doors were supposed to be strongly locked and barred; but rebel ingenuity (worthy the skill of a Yankee or a burglar), opened the. doors, opened the wall, scud they- were in the open air before their guards knew anything about it. The whole escaped without a man being recaptured. Two more the following morning es caped at roll call in a similar way. The reason given for their departure is that the members of the 97th Illinois, who are on duty there, were absent on review, and that their places were tilled by men from the Bth Indiana; that the latter were not " up to the dodge" by which the thirty. eight took French leave; that 'the rebel prisoners knew it, and thus took advantage of their ignorance, and, as you see, played the same dodge very successfully. • A brilliant fight recently took place at Pensacola, between the 13th and 14th cavalry and the 57th Alabama cavalry, in which the rebels were al most ailmhilated in 04mnd-to-hand encounter with sabres. BLOCEADING FLEET, on' MOBILE, March 31, lE6l.—As I told you in my lasts the fleet bombard ing Fort Powell have . been removed from here, and I learn that Admiral Farragat leaves for New Orleans in a day or two in the Tennessee. he hav ing made that vessel his flagship. This is cer tainly a very deserving honer to Captain Giraud and his staunch vessel, for a brayer man does not exist in the United States navy than the Coal-. mender of the Tennessee, Captain Pierre Giraud. I was somewhat surprised this afternoor en being shown a copy of the New Orleans Era - giving au account of the sinking of the rebel rain Tennessee in a squall, on the first of March. This is not so. The Tennessee is not sunk, but now lies quietly at anchor opposite the city. The facts are these : When the authorities at Mobile found that Gen eral Sherman was advancing, with the in tention of attacking and capturing the city, Admi ral Buchanan (who was Men in Mobile conferring with them) gave orders for the Tennessee to return instantly and assist in its defence. At this time the ram was not quite over Dog river bar. The order wits executed as soon as possible, and three days after she was steaming up the bay. About the time mentioned in the Era we tad a severe storm. The rebel ram Huntsville at that time lay very near and under the gnus of Fort Morgan. She labored heavily, as could be seen by us, and at one time we thought that she must go down. She did not, however, though she had evidently a very narrow escape from doing so. We have just taten on board six deserters from Fort Powell: They nave no news of importance to give, except that the Southern soldiers are con tinually Milling to each other about the war; and the gist of their conversation is that it has lasted long enough, andthat they are tired of it. This is not said in a free and easy way, my informants assure me. but with fierce words and scorch ing looks, which bode evil ere long to their leaders. They say that Fort Powell Is very strong; they have no doubt, however, that Admiral Farragut can take it when he wants it. The authorities knew very well that after Sherman returned to Viksburg Admiral Farragut would have no use for Fort Powell if he took it, and that he could not hold it long against the forces and fleet of iron sleds which the rebels could send down at any to recapture it: They also know very well that when the-Admiral actually comes to take Mobile, he will have iron• clads fcr the purpose of protect ing his fleet of wooden gunboats and mortar ves sels from the attack of the monster rams, the Ten nessee and the Nashville. FROM MEXICO; MATAMOROS. Mexico, April 1,1864.-7. a addi tion to the arrival of three French men-of-war off the Rio Grande, we have a report here that the French are advancing for the purpose of attacking this city. Cortinas returned in - haste on the re ceipt of the news, and at once commenced prepa rations to receive the enemy. The Mexicans are now busily engaged in building earthworks, both around Matamoros and Bagdad.. On the day , following several boats were lowered front the French fleet for the purpose of examining and sounding the bar of the Rio- Grande; but the water was found too shallow to allow, of the war: Vessels passing over; so that whatever is intended to be done here must be accomplished by the land eps 91 pp? m small hosts.

The latter vessel was coming up the Bay and, when off No Point, discov ered a steamer On her larboard quarter going at full speed. The whistle was sounded but in a moment the Georgiana was struck just aft of the wheel house, and on a line with the front of the main saloon. Her guard was cut through to the hull, and two staterooms on the upper deck com pletely crashed, besides which the outer wall of those adjoining was pushed in full a foot from its proper place. A portion of the wheel house was also carried away, and ore of the ventilating tun nels from the 'lower saloon was broken off. A lady and child were sleeping in one of the de stroyed staterooms, and they were thrown entirely Out of the apartment, but without doing serious harm to either. The U S. vessel lost herbowsprit, head, .te., which did not interfere with her pro-. ceeding on her journey. The [Georgannia is an iron hull vessel, which is probably the reason why she Buffeted no greater damage. SUIOIDN IN PRISON. —On Wednesday evening_ a man named James Forwood, confined in the Lan caster county prison to await trial for larceny, hung himself in one of the cells, by means of a cord fastened to a spike. When discovered pulsa tion was still going on. He was immediately cut down, but all efforts to restore life were ineffec tual. He was brought to the-prison on the 7th in a state of intoxication, and at the time of taking his life was laboring under a fit of mania-a-pots. When fonrid,he was in art erect posture, standing on an iron spittoon. Forwood served in the three months' campaign in the army. He Icayeaa tank ;lT at e the men-of-war can do little damage themselves, though they can land their, whole force of men with little difficnity. We have a report that the French have gained. a victory at Monterey, though another rumor says that it was between the forces of Vidaurri and Cor ti-nos, and that the former wire vanquished. The Sociedad c ye that . 6 XI iw there is no doubt of Mexico being empire, born the fact that from Vera" Cruz to Gwymas, on the Pacific, there is a complete submission to imperialism, atdbefore the arrival of the. Archduke the work will be ac complished. Also that the French forces now in Mexico will remain five years to consolidate the throne, which will bring about an era of peace, tranquility and progiess for the nation." The Rolhtehilis have obtalted a privilege from the Regency, to be• approved of by tne Emperor, to establish a banking house, to be called the Bask of Mexico, with a capital of 560,000,000.

Times.] Pertis, March 29, lE6i. —One of the vessels built at Bordeaux by M. Armen, Deputy in the Corps Legislatif, for the Confederate Government, was launched on Thursday last, and shows herself on the water to be a most beautiful specimen of naval architecture. An English vessel is lying in the same port with all the necessary equipments on board fot the new vessel, the articles having been put on board the English vessel at Havre. The new vessel will not be ready to sail yet for some. weeks, and she is audaciously, an. 'Jounced in advertisements as being e‘up" for Shanghai. M. Armen, however, has been compelled by the French Government to give his word that none of the vessels he is building shall pass from his into Confederate bands, or, in a general way, that no trouble shall come-to the Government from these vessels, It is on this promise of M. Armen that the French and American Governments rely, and on which per mission is granted for the continuance of the work them. The two iron• clads will not be ready for launching yet for three months, but the other three wooden vessels will soon follow their consorts into the water. It is feared that by some indirect means these vessels may tinally pass into Confede rate hands. The Georgia, which left the French port of Cher bourg over a month ago, has just put into the port ofltiordeaux, anti on Saturday the officers of this vessel visited the newly-launched Confederate ship. It is yet unexplained why the Georgia was allowed to re-enter a French port, contrary to the new regulation requiring an interval of three months to elapse between each entry, but .I believe this new regulation makes an exception to the three months' rule in favor of coaling; but for this purpose only twenty-four hours is allowed, and the Georgia seems to be malnng more than a twenty-four hours' stay at Bordeaux. The distance from Bordeaux to the sea to seventy miles, and the occasion seemed so good a one to entrap the Georgia, that the American Minister at Paris immediately telegraphed Capt. Winslow of the fact, and the Hearsage, which. Wel, has been stationed in the channel, has by this time pr,ba bly arrived off the mouth of the Gironde. The twenty-four hours' start will be here allowed, of course, to the Georgia, bnt the exit from the river it narrow in-comparison to other harbors, and it is easier to keep informed of the movements of the bleckeded vessel in a river than in an open bay. The French Government, finding that there was an Wei/lion rn the part of the Confederates to ran the Bappabannocx ont of the port of Calais - and to goto sea, as they did at Sheerness, with French leave, have inclosed the vessel in a dock, And p hinted man-of-war in front of it.

ZETESO IN BEHALF OF INDIANS. - -Last eve ning, at the Lecture Room of the University, there was a large meeting of the friends of the Red man. Stirring addresses were made by Bishop Whipple, of Minnesota, the Rev. Mr. Hinman, a successful missionary to the Indians, and by Pay-pay and Ta.o.pi, two chiefs of the Sioux nation. whose Christian virtues were sorely tested during the mesas ere. George W. Clair, a splendid young Indian, was also on the platform. The speakers invoked the aid of the city founded by Wm. Penn. to prevent the continuance of wrongs to the Red man, that, if persevered in, will either combine all the Indian tribes in deadly hostility to our people or send them starving to an early grave. Their capabili ties for Christian civilization were satisfactorily illustrated, not only by successes in this country, when fairly dealt with, but mainly by their condi tion in Canada, where they have been treated with uniform Christian kindness. • At the close of the meeting several prominent citizens sprang to their feet and demanded immediate action. After the adoption of resolutions expressive of sympathy with the Indian and the determination on the part of our citizens to perpetuate the spirit of Wm. Penn, the following committee was appointed and clothed with powers: Mrs. Wm. Welsh. Dr. Jos. Parrish, Messrs. John P. Crozier, David Scull, James S. Biddle, and the Rt. Rev. Alonzo Potter. As the committee will be enlarged they will be thankful for suggestions and the names of persons Interested in this condition and prospects of the Indians.
