TELEGRAPHIO NEWS. PETERSBURG. Reports of Refugees and Deserters—Early nforced—Our Feeling the Rebel Lines—Mar- rrillas—Gen. Lee ements of sed Through geie te Have Been ‘g Visited by & Returned irom Atla: Gen. Sheridan—He H Winchester—His Surprise of the Enemy. New Yorx, August 14.—The Herald’s City Point correspondence of the 12th says that Tebel desertersand refugees continue to come within our lines in large numbers, and report that Early has been largely reinforced. Quiet reconnoissances are going on to learn the strength of the rebel army on the left, and & week may not passaway without some coun- ter movement on our part. Lee Visits Atla: a. The Herald’s correspondence trom near Mar- tineburg, dated the lith, says deserters report that Lee and the rebel Secretary of War re- eently visited Atlanta, and that Beauregard was left there in command. A small force of rebels entered Martinsburg on the 1ith, and drove out our seouts, refugees, and citizens, and teok off allthe merchandise and liquors, The rebel regiments are becoming sosmall that ay ‘ge number of them have been consol- idated. Cumberland correspondence of the 13th says the rebels have all lett that section, with the exception of McNeill’s robbers. It is ascer- tained that McCausland intended to burn Cam- berland, and destroy the railroad its entire length to the Ohio river, thence turn into Kanawha Valley; but his defeat by Kelley prevented the consummation of the plan. A dispatch from Harrisburg says one of our columns encountered a body of rebels moving from Martinsburg. A brisk fight ensued, and the rebels were whipped. A doubtfal report says we have a force sonth of the rebels. General Sheridan. Harper’s Ferry correspondence of the 13th says Gen. Sheridan advanced by way of Charlestown and Berryville to inchester. Our cavalry had some skirmishing with the enemy at various points. Between Berryville and Winchester they came upon a party of some fifty rebels, engaged in threshing grain. ‘They surprised and captured the entire squad. Early was completely surprised by the ap- proach of our army, and made but slight re- sistance. He found his position flanked by Sheridan’s maneuvers, and fell back during the night, having attempted an artillery duel in the afternoon. Our latest information is to the effect that Gen. Sheridan passed through Winchester yes- terday morning. No details of our losses have been received. Some fitteen or twenty men were killed and wounded. They are in the hospital at Berryville. General Weber sent a patrol of fifteen men over the Shenandoah a few days ago to take ossession of a qurntity of smuggled goods. They secured the goods. and or their retarn, were attacked by fifty of Mosby’s men, whom they repulsed, and brought off most of the goods. A supply train was attacked last night by guerrillas, and a portion of it captured. Asut- ler was captured, robbed, and released. His captors were afterwards captured by our men, and the sutler’s money was found upon their persons. Gen. Duffie’s command was sent out to hunt up the maranders. Later. A letter from the Army of the Potomac, dated the 13th, says the Pennsylvania soldiers in Gen. Crawford’s division, 5th corps, in response to a circular issued by him, have contributed over $1,000 in aid of the Chambersburg suffer. ers. No doubt other commands will imitate the example. Gen. Crawford has withdrawn all the guards heretofore detailed from his division to protect families from the annoyance of stragglers in King George county. A deserter from the 8th Alabama, who for- merly lived in Massachusetts, and was con- scripted into the rebel army, came into our lines yesterday. Hesays that Kershaw’s di- vision of Longstreet’s corps passed through Richmond, on its way toward the Valley, a som panied by a large ammunition train, and that he heard a prominentofficer say that Gen. Lee had also gone in that direction. He also reports that the enemy are mining on our front, twenty men being detailed at a time to work. Heavy firing was heard inthe direction of Butler’s department this morning. THE PIRATE TALLAHASSEE. Further Accounts of her Captures—Other bt Burned—Anether New Vessels n York Pilot-Boat Seized. Sanpy Hook, Sunday noon, Ang. 14.—The boatmen of the Associated Press, at this point, who has just landed furnishes the following Report: bave boarded the bark Suliote, of Belfast, Maine, from Cow Bay, for New York. She ‘was captured on the 12th instant, off Montauk Point, thirty-five miles distant, by the pirate Tallahassee. The pirate bonded the bark for five thousand dollars, and pat om board three bundred passengers from the ship Adriatic, the latter having been burned by the pirate. No water or provisions were given tothem. The Suliote aleo has on board Mr. Calahan and crew of the plier rene William Bell, No. 24, which vessel was burned on the 12th, off Mon- tauk Point, by the pirate. Several other persons from the destroyed ves- sels are also on board the Sallote. The Suliote reports seeing a vessel burning on the night ot the 12th. The pirate stated to some of the cap- tured persons that he was coming into New York harbor. When last seen the Tal. was steering southeast. The pilot-boat James Funk is her tender. The Suliote passed the trigate Susquehanna on Saturday morning, lying still south of Sandy Hook. The Suliote has no provisions or water on board. More Particulars. New York. August 14.—Louis Samson, pilot, reports that on the 11th inst., 25 miles off Mon- tauk Point, he saw a hermaphrodite brig burned, with her bottom up—no doubt the Carrie Estelle. Capt. Burdern, of the Hamburg bark Elbe, reports thaton the 12th instant, off Montauk Point, he saw three vessels burning at the same time. The pirate Tallahassee came close, with the Union flag flying, but after passing she hoisted the Confederate ane. He saw & man jump overboard from the Tallahassee, but he ‘was picked up by one of her boats and taken on board. On the same day he saw the schoo- ner Serene anda pilot boat, name and number unknown, burned, apt. Swartz, of the Holland bark Oheru- bim, on the 10th instant, in latitude 42 25, don gshie 32 43, says he saw a large ship on a. The pilot boat Ezra Nye, of New York, has arrived here, and reports that on the 13th inst., just off Montauk Point, he saw the pilot boat James Funk leave a ship on fire. After- wards the suspicious steamer took the pilot boat in tow, and the Nye stood off, bat afterwards went to the burning ship, and found it was the Adriatic, Capt. core, from London to New York. Two foreign parks were close by, to whom it is supposed the passengers were transferred. The Tallahassee was afterwards seen near another large ship. Another Pilet-Boat Captured. New XoRE, August 14.—The bark Suliote, With the captain, crew, and passengers ot the ship Adriatic, and crew of the pilot-boat Wm. , hasarrived here. The passengers lost all their baggage, and so & number of per- sons were placed aboard the Suliote that it sunk har vo that =e deck was level with the water. & storm o bly all would have been lost. centr ete rene Day, The Adriatic had one hundred and sixty- three pescceers and a full cargo of merchan- dise. The latter was mostly on British account. In Founda to after her capture, the Adriatic collided with the pirate, carrying away the epee a and, had there been a win time, would undoubtedly Fave sunk her. On the 13th, Captain Moore, of the Adriatic, boarded the frigate Susquehanna, off Fire captured on the 1ith inst, ninety-nine miles southeast of Sandy Hook, after a chase of half an hour, and being fired at three times. The pilots state that the Tallahassee is a very fast ‘vessel. B dandy Minister Arrived.

N&, 3.576 MOBILE. via New Orleans—Summary s Victeries—His De: City—The Fleet 1 Obstructions—Account of the Cas —How the Tennessee was Captured. New ORLEANS, Aug. 7.—Later advices from perment's fleet may be summed up as fol- ows : Fort Gaines has surrendered. Fort Powell ‘was blown up i) dabeea rebels. This was at Grant’s Pass, at opposite end of Daupnia Island from where the fight occarred. Four monitors went in, fast followed by the Brook- lyn, Hartiord, Metacomet, and others. The principal fighting was with the ram Tennes- fee, inside the bay. The Metacomet, in at- tempting to ram the Tennessee, struck the Hartford, and stoyein her side timbers. The Hartford will go North for repairs. The rebel gunboat Selma was sunk by the Metacomet. The gunboats Chickasaw and Winnebago chased the two rebel gunboats—the James and Morgan—into Navy Cove, and they are block- -aded there, without a chance to escape. Only tem persons are known to have survi- ved the destruction of the monitor Tecumseh by atorpedo. The dispatch boat Phillippe was burned at zea while the fight was progressing. Admiral Farragut will push right on for the city of Mobile. All of the Texas coast, Brownsville included, has been evacuated, with the exception of Bra- zos Island. A small force is left there. Gen. Herron has arrived here (New Or- leans.) His forces are going into camp above the city. The rebels here are greatly excited over the Mobile news. Politics are becoming interesting. The free State men are organizing, and the clubs of the last campaign are being revived. There is no doubt of the ratification of the new constitution by the people, notwithstand- ing the large numbers who have left for the Northern watering places. The Mobile News, of the 5th inst., boasts of the hanging of two colored soldiers and a cot- ton speculator, near Vicksburg, by Whitta- ker’s guerrillas. Additional Union prisoners, just exchanged, have arrived here. Additional Details. New York, August 14.-The New Orleans papers of the 7th inst. have full details of Ad- mira] Farragut’s movements. The Hartford, with the Admiral on board, steamed up to Fort Morganand delivered sach & succession of broadsides as to effectually silence all the rebel guns and water batteries. The monitors at the same time engaged the rebel ram Tennessee, the latter failing in seve- ral attempts to run down our yessels. Fi- nally our monitors closed with her, and she was rammed by the Monongahela, Lacka- wanna, and Hartford. The Hartford started to run her down, when the Metacomet, also on the same patriotic er- rand, collided witl?the Hartford. The Tennessee ran out the white flag. She lost but three men, and Farragut is probably using her as one of his fleet, she not being greatly damaged. The Tecumseh was sunk by a torpedo, and, it is thought can be raised. The gunboat Oneida had a shell explode in her boiler, scalding thirty of her men. Admiral Buchanan 1s not expected to live. Lieut. Comstock, commanding the rebel gun- boat Selma, was killed, and his crew were nearly all killed. The less on the Hartford is twenty-three Killed and forty-two wounded. Our lossesare two houndred and forty-nine killed and wounded, including Capt. Craven and crew, of the Tecumseh. Fort Powell was blown up on the night of the 6th. The troops had been janded and were at the forts on Friday night. The ioss ot the rebels is unknown.” All our fleet are inside the rebel obstructions, and will probably move for Dog riyer bar im- mediately. FROM NEW ORLEANS. Eleventh New York Cavalry Attacked.

Major General Bates received a flesh wound in the leg. The enemy is massing on our right and endeayor- ing to extend his lines in the direction of the Western Railroad. A few shots were fired at the city yesterday, 9th inst. Brisk skirmishing commenced at 11 o'clock last night, and con- tinued four hours. No personal casualties are Teported.”’ Rebel Accounts. [From the Richmond Sentinel, Aug. 10.) Late in the afternoon of Tuesday, we learn from the Petersburg Express, a brisk firing, mostly from mortars, was commenced on the centre and left, and kept up until 9 o’clo¢ck. There ceems to be little doubt that Grant is moving large bodies of his troops cautiously and quietly from our front. Where he is send- ing them we, of course, do not know, but they leaye City Point in transports and go down the river. His steamers, loaded with troops, have been seen within the last two days mo- ving off. Yesterday was quiet; but in tne morninga tremendous explosion was heard within the enemy's lines, and, from the direction of the eound, it was supposed one of the ememy’s gunboats had been blown up. We are informed that on the 5th inst. a Oon- federate battery opened on the enemy’s gun- boats at Wilcox’s wharf, which was replied to by the enemy. The battery then moved to an- other position higher up the river Next day the enemy dropped down near Swinyard’s wharf, and deliberately shelled a house occu- ied alone by ladies, children and servants. The family consisting of eight persons, had left the dining-room but a few seconds when ashell exploded directly under the room, tearing everything to pieces. The negro cook was the only person wounded. From Petersburg. The Richmond papers also publish a state- ment that General Grant is moving his heavy guns to City Point, preparatory to raising the siege of Petersburg. It is also reported that the rebel officers who ‘were recently exchanged in Charleston harbor ‘were never placed under fire by Gen. Foster, and that Gen. Sam. Jones, the rebel commander in Charleston, has now a large number of newly arrived Federal officer under the fire of Foster’s guns. Gen. Jeff. Thompson says that the Southern officers did not leave the Federal gunboat till they were exchanged. He is ordered to report to Gen. Price. AMUSEMENTS, VARIETIES! VARIETIES!!
