FORT McALLISTRR We “are as we were” as regards both Fort McAllister and Vicksburg, the reported cap- ture of the one and evacuation of the other be- ing new doubted, from the fact that Inter ad- Vices arewiient on the snbjact. The followin}, from the Hartford Times, seems tu be the same report as that of the Springtield Kepudircan, and is cf too old date (tbe 22d ult.) to give its statement as to the capture of Fort MoAllister any weight: Fort McAllister Taken—Savannah Threat- ened. {From the Hartford Times.} Extract from # private ietter received by a gentiemsan in New Haven to-day (March 2 @nd sent to us by the independent Hue of tele graph, dated ima Feb. 72.—We are expecting every d@ upon to mareh in so:ue Girections 1 stspect it will be towards Say nab. I think we chali go that way to Chari-: ton, a8 we are trying to drive the Rebels from their earthworks, with gunboats, at present. Yesterday the 47th New York, with the as- sistance of ‘the bonts, took Fert McAllister and about one anda half miles of rifle pits. The 472 lost 160 in killed, wounded and missiox. ‘Two regiments have gone to reinforce them. I am of the opinion that during the next thirty days this department will have warm work. ‘We certainly shal! if we try Uharleston first; it is said to be about or almost impregnabir. Time will teil, and I only hope they won't make another of these siaughter pens. GrxxnaL McDowsrit.—The Court of In- quiry, summoned at the request of General McDowell to m vestigate certain charges —made rather by common report than-in any more direct way—against him, bas completed i:s labors, and its judgment has just been made public. The court acquits him of blame in any particular except his haying gone tc M ufassuss on the afternoon cr evening of the 2>th of An- fust, to confer with General Pope, on the ap- Peal of the latter for his views, whilst his com- mand was on the march upon Centreville. It is mentionéd that General Pope, McDowell's euperior, did net censure him for this; of this the Court says “that the separation was incon- siderate and unauthorized, but was notinduced by any unworthy motive.” The charge of disloyalty made by an officer of the rank of colonel, after being fatally wounded im battle, in general terms, with- out defining any specific act, is fully disap- Proved by all the evidence bearing on the pciat The Court derbunces the charge of drunk- eunees against General McDowell as ridicn- lous. It is only justice to an officer who has borne in manly silence an unexampled weight of re- proach and calumny, to spread abroad tha conclusions of the court, which has earefally examined into every charge and now declares him innocent in intention ; faithful to his Hag; aud zenleus to meet and beat the enemy.

March | m, Business of COOKER, Pres't, Tus Rerorts kom Vickssunt.—We have mothing, as yet, to add to the report as to the reat battle at Vicksburg. The report itseif (on the authority of the Petersburg Zzpress) w Giscredited,—foz the jzeason, that neither Admira} Porter's dispatch of the 2th, announc- ing the loss of the Indianola, nor the Richmond Enquirer of the same date make any aliusion to it, Itiscertain the government has not re- ceived any account of the commencement of hostile operations, The Memphis Bulletin of Saturday, 23th lt, says that it wes confidently believed there tbat the rebels were then evacuating Vicks. | borg.

Vicksburg would thus Sppear to be closely environed by our forces, and wo the re- ported evacuation has, to say the least of it, an aur of probability.
