We have arumor, by way of Corinth, that Mobile is ours. The report was brought in by rebel prisoners taken by our scouts. Corinth despatches of yesterday say that the mail mes. senger came in there to day, from Chevalle, and reported that our scouts had scoured the country os far south as Riploy,, but discovered no trace of the enemy. An arrival from the South reports all quiet ot Helena. In Memphis, orders have been issued by General Sher- man that all steamers with cotton and other mer- chandise shall be convoyed by gunboats upon proper no- tiflcation at Catro or Memphis. A Memphis totter says Villipigue’s rebel brigade bas moyed from Holly Springs, ‘The only news from Tennessee is that on Friday night our pickets were driven in at Chevalle. This ts thought, however, to indicate'a reconnoissance rather than an at- tack on our forces. The rebcls scem to be coming up by way of Grand Junction, and thus be in a position to menace both Bolivar and Corinth. It is barely pos- sible that they have not enough men to make an attack, but have pushed their column in a threatening manner in order to gain time at Holly Springs and other points south, ‘There is a confict of authority between the rebel gene- rals in Mississippi. General Pemberton was sent to the command of that department on the presumption that General Van Dorn would be in Tonnessee or Kentucky’ Dot the hattle at Corinth prevented this, and now Van Dorn refuses to come under and acknowledge his autno- rity. ‘The Lynchburg Republican of the 24th says the consti” tutionality of the Conecription act will be tested in the Court of Appeals in Virginia.

To Major General Cvrns:— Lhave the honor to report that on the evening of the 20th I reecived information of a party of rebels moving towards a point eight miles from this place, and en route to join the rebel forces in the line ef the Southwest. I took one hundred and five men of the Tenth Illinois caval- ry and started at five P. M. to intercept them ; came on {heir pickets at half-past eight, and drove them in and attacked the main force, about two hundred strong, kill- ing and wounding many, and capturing twenty-seven pri- soners. Among them is a cuptain, who informs me» that Cotoncl Dorsey was in command. We also captured a number of horses, shot guns, rifles &c. Our loss was one killed and oue wounded. This party was organized by Rucker and Hughes, who sign themselves Majors in the Confederate army. They scat” tered in every direction through the mountains, A large portion of them are returning in the same direstion- they came. They were so completely surprised that they never tried to éollett again. The largest trai! I could fud, which we followed for ten miles, when they likewise scattered in every direction,and I ordered Captain MeMa. hon’s company of State militia to gather them in. They are completely disorganized, I: am, very respectfully» your obedient servant, JOHN STUART, Lieutenant Colonel Tenth Illinois cavalry, commanding. Cairo, Noy. 1, 1862.

Genera) Mitchel and staff were at Beaufort when the ‘vensel sailed. The General and bis two sons (aids) are very ill. Captain L. A. Warfield died on the 28th of October, and Captain Wiltiams, of General Mitchel’s staff, on the 29tb. Their disease was malarious fever, caused by throwing up earthworks on a morass, to the left of Gen. Mitchel’s headquarters at Hilton Head, The action of heavy raius ‘and hot weather on decaying vegetable matter is suppos- e4 to produce the sickness, as all the cases have originated the immediate vicinity of the now works. On the 26th of October the United States bark Restless, Captain Conroy, assisted by the United States steamer Fag, Captain “trong, captured a rebel steamship in Bull’s Bay, containing a valuable cargo. Om the 27th Captain Conroy enceeeded in capturing a similar vessel trying to run the blockade. Her captain, mate and two passengers, a gentleman and lady, made their escape in a email boat. Captain 0. found on board: ‘tag the vessel that she was English built, seven or cight hundred tons, and named the Scotia. She had side wheels, two smoke stacks, and powerful engines. The prize taken the day previous is named the Anglia. .Tho vessels are so maueb alike that it is dificult to tell them apart at a short distance. They adopted the plan of our blockading ves- els, and painted their hulls lead color. ‘The fcotia and cargo aro valued at over $600,000; the Apglia is valued at $300,000, Captain C. got her afloat with bisown men, The engineers (English) consented to run her down to Port Royal for a reward of one hundred @ollare cach. Both prizes arrived at Port Royal onthe ‘22th ult. and will be sent North immediately. ‘The United States has made the round wip from New York to Port Royal and back in eight days and four hours—the quickest trip on record, She carried a large argo outwards, and encountered very heavy weather off Hatteras. ‘The steamship Star of tho South afrived at Hilton ‘Bead on the 29th ult.
