Lee's cavalry has left’ New Orleans for Red River. Gen, Sherman arrived at New Orleans’ on the 2c imstant.on the gunboat Diana, The late expedition fs called by himself a “big raid,” in the course of which he reached a pointten miles east of Meridian, without any oppesititn worthy of the nume, and returned with 1,100 mutes, 4,000. conirabonds, 500 pris. oueré, and & large amount of supplies. Transports are rapidly bringi:g back troops | from Texas. Hon. Michael Habn was imangurated Goy ernor oF Lovisiana of the $th justant, with im- poring ceremonies at New Oileaiis. Gen. Banks delivered an address, in which he predicted the reduction of the iusnrrection to tnree or four Siates on the Atiantic coast by this season’s campaign. He said, «Let us re- member that the re-inauguration we celebrat> has the basis. of a century, for we lave achiev- ed deeds of a century in the past two years; and 60 long as the people are faithful and true to themselves so long will stand Louisiana, the jirst returning State, in which every man isa fee man.” Goy. Hahn’s inaugural address regards sla. very &s a cause of the present unholy attempt to break up the Government, and its universal a immediate extinction as a public and. pri- e biesging. “ From every light before me,” he says, «« I em constrained to believe that the causgof the rebellion is in extremis, and itseems tome notextrayagant to look upon this year as the final one of ihe most senseless, causeless and most murderous rebellions that ever oc- curred in a civilized nation. Loyal men of Louisiana have suffered muca and deeply, but with the blessing of God upon our exertions all wail soon be rizht again, and peace, happi- hess, and prosperity will smile upon ons thres- hoics as of old.” : Acted yall concluded the gayeties of the Occasion, All the people were in the streets during the day, ard there was unquestionably a more sin- cere feeling of satisfaction manifested on the ceasion than on many of the raore boisierous of secession madness. en. Beauregard’s wife died on the 2d inst. The fnnersl, con the 4th, was the largest ever seen in New Orleans. Over 6, persons were in the procession, which was over a mile long. Gen.

As it has been so long on the way, I have trle- graphed yon that I will reply by mail. At the instance of many who think that the public interests would be promoted by my election to the Chief Magistracy, a committee, composed of Senators, Representatives and citizens, has been organized here to adopt snegsures to promote that obiect. This com- mittee, through a sub-committee, has conferred with me, and I have explained to them the ob- jections which seéms to me to exist against | any use of my name in thet connection. They haye taken those objections into con- sideration and assure me that they think I ought not to refuse its use, and I have con- sented to their wishes. assuring them, how- ever, that whenever any consideration by them, or by the friends of our cause, thought entitled to aveight should indica the expedt- tney of any other course, no consideration of personal delicacy toward me should be aHow- ed to prevent its being taken. it 1 know my own heart, I desire nothing so much us the suppression of the rebellion and the re-establishment of Union, order, and pros- perity on sure and safe foundations, and I should despise myself if I felt capable of al- lowing any personal objects to influence me to eny action which would affect by one jot or tittle injuriously the accomplishment of these objects; and it i & source, of real gratification to beleye that those who desire it on public grounds alone will not hesitate to act in any matter which may concern me upon such grounds and such grounds only. O1 course under these circumstances I desire the support of Ohio, It, however, it shall be the pleasure-ot the majority of our friends in Ohio to indicate @ preference for another, I shall accept their action with that cheerful acquiescence which is due from me to friends who have trusted and honored me beyond any claim of mine.

Fortress MongRox, March i2.—The particn- Jars ot the recent advance on Suifolk are as follows :—On the 9th instant an advance was made on Suffolk by the 2d colored cavalry, Uol. Cole. The colonel, with seven companies, ad- yanced on the southern road, Lieut.-Col. Pond, with two companies, being im the advance, and Lieut. Snyder, with one company, moved for- ‘ward on the South Quay road. ieet. Snyder first encountered the enemy, consisting of Ran- som’s entire brigade of infantry, cavalry, and arullerye Ransom commanding in Tson. Lieut. S. sent @ courier to Col. Cole, who im- mediately went to his assistance and met the enemy at Suffolk, where a severe fight, lasting one hour, took place. . Col. Cole shot the commander of the rebel cavalry and attempted to cover the retreat of Lieut.-Col. Pond, but the enemy, with superior numbers, intercepted him, forcing him to retire across the Jericho canal, where he rallied b13 torce. Lteat-Col. Pond came up the Southern the enemy in the rear, and Col. Cole in front, thereby cutting their way through the enemy’s ranks and saying their command. Deeerters say the enemy had 65 men killed. Our loss in Killed, wounded and missing was only 20. Lieut. Van Lew, of the 2¢ colored cayairy, was killed. Lient. Col. Pond had his horse shot under him. Our troops behaved most courageously. Benj. Hunt, bugler of Company A, wentinto the fight, killing several of the enemy. The rebels retreated and are now across the Blackwater, evidently expecting that we had reinforcements near at hand, which was the case. Gen. Heckman, with his com- mand, arrived at Saffolk as promptly as the cars could convey them. Our forces now hold the place. Goy. Bramleite vs. the President. LovisvitLx, March 13.—A dispateh from Frankfort, Ky., ssys, it is understood that Gov. Bramletie addressed an earnest remon- strance to the Président, respecting the enlist- ment and enrollment of slaves in Kentucky, ane bas notified him that he the Governor will _ execute the laws of Kentucky against all who attempt to take slaves from their owners, with- out their consent. He claims that Kentucky has furnished more than five thousand of her sons to detend the Goyernment, and is willing to furnish still more and sl that is allotted to her, and thatshe has proven her loysity, and must be treated accordingly, and her laws and constitutional privileges must be respected. i Military Affairs in Kentucky, WILLE; March ordered the arrest of on rs Gen.

Sm: Ihave to report the paintal-tid’ngs o the ceuth of Mr. Charles Marsh, of Naw York who hus recently been acting as the Vice Qon- sul ot the United States at Oairo. 3 lus sad event took place very suddenly at the eve- ning of Sunday, the 2ith of January last.

In tits con- citon be rem: until bis death, seven hours ) three iliful European physicians in the Viceroy’s service. On tke afternoon of the 26th ultimo the funeral ceremoi.ies were solemnized at the Consulate and in the Church of St Catherine; they were attended by the chief functionaries of the local government, and the Consular rep- resentatives of the different nations in uniform, beside a very large concourse of European res- idents, many of whom, notwithstanding the shortness of his stay, had known the deceased well enough to feel a sense of personal joss in his death. Among the pall-bearers were sular officers of England, Russia, Italy, and Holland. The remains were placed in the Catholic cemetery of Alexandria. At the time of his decease Mr. Marsh had hardly attained the pine of life, and up to the last illness seemed the embodiment of vig- orous health. No reqnisi‘e of happiness and prosperous foriune was wanting tohim. His eminent social qualities, his generosity and talent, had gained for him an unusually large circle of friends m Americaand Europe. He had been the trusted associate of Mr. Webster and others of our leading slatesmen, but as a rule bad declined to accept official preferment for himself. Only once, 1 believe, he conzent- ed to represent his native city (Portsmovth) in the New Hampshire House of Repres»itatives, where he was nominated by one of the two great parties for the Sprakership. He was a graduate of Harvard College, and his pub- lished volumes of Reminiscences of Mr. W ster and of Travels in Madeira and Spain, a wellas his yerious contributions to zazines and journals, had given him a creditable place in American literature. It was but November last that Mr. Marsh aec- coppanied me from Paris to this country in thé fulness of health and plet nt expecta/ions. Few indeed of his many iriends will be pre- pured for the affliction which thus befalis them. I am, sir, very respectfally, your obed eat servant, WiILLiaM S. THAYER. Hon. WM. H.

New York Pouitics.—The ‘Tammany Hall General Committee have formally approved of the action of their delegates in withdrawing trom the State Convention, recently held. at Albany, and have likewise issued an address in the course of which they express.a convic- tion “that the next President should be select- ed trom among the men schooled in the trying events of the times, such rant, McClellan, Hancock, Thomas, Sherman, and others who might be named ;” also, a beltef that slavery, as @ subject of political agitation, has passed from the political arena, and that the war should be vigorously prosecuted,” &c., &c. This address is not calculated to heal the breach between Tammany and Mozart. On the contrary, it will rather render that breach ermanent. Fernando Wood and the Daily ‘ews faction will never assent to the propost+ tion that ‘slavery is dead,” nor to the declara- tion that the war shall go on. We may expect therefore, to see the fight between these two rempanis os the New York Democracy goon, henceforth with more violence than ever. Mason GENERAL Mgavx.—Rumors, evi- dently founded upon misapprehension, haying obtained currency to the effect that the heaith of Gen. Meade had become so much impaired as to induce his resignation of the command of the Army of the Potomac, and gone so far as to designate his successor, we are happy to be able to state, as we do on good authority, that this distinguished officer has entirely recoy- ered from his recent indisposition, and that he has never entertained the remotest intention of retiring from & position in which, we may add, be has secured the confidence of the country and army, and where he has earned such high military reputation. The recent visits of Gen. Meade to wis city, as we understand, have been for the purpose of consultation and to give testimony before the Committee on the Conduct of the War, and notin view of an: contemplated separation from his command. He was expected to return this morning to the army.—ZJntelligencer.
