The two vessels in question have for sume time been @tationed off the Sabine Pass to blockade the harber. The ‘Pass leads into the Sabine Bay, and forms the boundary ‘Setween the States of Louisiana and Texas, Sabine City ‘waa formerly place of considerable commercial import- ence, and is now one of the depots of the extensive trade ‘which the rebels are carrying on over the Texan border. ‘Bato the bay empty the Sabine and Neches rivers, and the ‘water on the bar is about seven and a half feet aeep. Before the blockade vessels of light draught were in the Babit of loading here with cotton and other supplies, and nding @ market for them among the speculators who @warm in the seaport towns of Mexico. ‘Therefore i was that the blockade of this pass was a @erious annoyance to the rebels,and they determined to ‘wreak it. General Magruder’s success at Galveston em- Boldened him to try a similar experiment here, and it ‘was scarcely less successful. Four vessels were accordiagly fiited out, protected by ‘eetton bales, after the manner of the vessels which were employed in the capture of the Harriet Lane. The largest @f this rebel feet, a steamer, carried two eighteen-pound- ers, another a long thirty-two-pounder, and the others me gun each. ‘On our side, the Morning Light carried a formidable Battery of nine guns—one of them a thirty pound pivot wiGied gun, and the other eight thirty-two-pounders. The Welocity carried one small howitzer, The four rebel ves- eels had in all six hundred men,and on oar side the Morning Light had one hundred and the Velocity twonty- @ve men. The former was commanded by Captain Dil- Magbam, and the latter by Lieutenant Hammond. On the morning of the 21st there was almost a com- plete calm, and this was the favorable time for the rebels te come down with the flect of steamers, when they knew it would be impossible for our vessels to escape them. The Velocity was inside the bar, and the rebel fleet Bret fell io with ber. As at Galveston, the rebel steamers swarmed with sharpshooters, who wore protected by cot- ‘on walle. The calm was so complete that the Velocity was entirely unabie to escape, and two of the rebel steamers, coming to close quarters, soon had her at the!r mercy. ‘Becalmed, ‘and with a boat on each side, she was ‘atterly unable to defend herseif with her single howitzer, and her twenty five men were powerless against the buv- dreds of rebel roidiers that soon swarmed her decks, and ight got under weigh, and put torea, Two of the rebel steamers, however, gave chaco— Sne of them with two eiybteen-pounders and the other with « thirty two-pounder, and both vessels carrying three hundred men. ‘The Morning Light did her utmost to escape; but tho veesels were too fast for her, and they both fired at her aa she retreated. At last they overtook her about fiiteen miles out to sea, and here it was that the principal en- Ht took place, The Morning Light, finding it im poesibie to escape, rounded to and delivered her fire; but the rebe's were soon alongside, and but a few minutes before the Union vessel was in their power. On ‘he Morning Light one man was killed and eight were wounded. FRROCITY OF THE REWEL SOLDIERS. ‘The rebel soldiers are reported to have exhibited the ‘most savage ferocity. They swore they would put every man to death on board the veese!, and it is said that most ef the men were wounded after Captain Dilliogham sur rendered. The interierence of the rebel officers alone Prevented a general massacre. All fell into the hands of ‘the enemy, aud the fight, such as it was, lasted but aiew minutes How it was that « vessel with such a powerful Dattery fas the Morning Light undoubtedly carried—nine guns of beavy calibre—shoald surrender to the enemy's vessels, with uniy three guns, is regarded as amystory. Ii can nly be accounted for op the supposition rebels ‘were enabled to come to close quarters at once, and to overpower their antagonist by boarding her in greatly superior numbers. But if the enemy had three men to ber one, as he undoubtedly had, she had three guns for ‘every one of bis, THE TENNESMEE FALLS IN WITH THE MORNING 11GHT. On the very day of these occurrences the gunboat Ten- ‘meneee, Commander G. D. Childs, sailed from this port for @alvesion. with orders to stop off the Sabine Pass and de- diver iinportant despatches from Admiral Farragut to Capt. Dillingham, About seven o'clock the next evening, Janu: 22, the Tennessee arrived off the Pass and fell in with the Morn- Lixbt, and carne up to her close astern, Capt. Childs led her, and told them to send @ boat alongside. “We have noue,” was the ply. apt; Childs; “for 1 99@ one Dut we have no crew. ’? ; Capt.

Their interview reeme to have Deen quite amicable, The Tennessee asked certain civil quertions, and (he Morning Light answered them civilly and truly, aod the two parted company without firing a gon on either side, The armament of the Tennessee con- mete ef one twenty pounder rifled gun, two twenty-four. pounder howitzers and one twelve-pounder howitzer. ‘The Teupessee put on to Galveston, where ahe arrived on the 244, and reported the facie té Commodore Bell, of We Brovkl ya. No steps were taken until the next morning, when tho Commodore deapatched two [ana pod to the scene of the disaster—ihe Cayuga and the New London, These vessels came ap with the Morning Light, which Bad not yet crossed the bar, and they also eepted the Vo- locity inside.

A strange rumor is afloat—but I have not yet been able totrace it to any authentic source—that’ the officers of three Now York regiments, stationed somewhere between here and Baton Rouge, resigned their commissions on maste a short time back. It is said that on the non-ac- ceptance of the resignations the officers in question assembled, broke their swords, took off their shoulder straps, and declared that they would serve the government of the United States no longer. Various rea- sons have been assigned for this sup) wholesale resig- ation, Somo say it is Intended as & demonstration against the emancipation proclamation; others declare that the officers are disgusted at the Fabian policy that seems to pervade throughout the army, while otbers insist that they despair at conquering a peace on the basis of restor- ing the Union on its old foundation. What has ‘been the action of the rank and file of the three regiments, and whether anybody has been shot for mutiny atid desertion, js not stated. Iu my opinion the story is one of the fe-fo- fum order ao prevalent here of late, T learn that Southern papers bave been received in this city w the 24th ultimo, in which it ts stated that the Go- vernor of Kentucky has notified President Lincoln that, unless he withdraws his obnoxious proclamation, the State will secede and furnish the confederacy with seventy thousand troops, This, coming on the heels of informa- tion that a revolt had taken place in a Northwestern State, is the subject of much exultation in secession quarters, where tho belief 1s gaining ground that all the Western States bordering on or adjacent to the Mississippi will secede. Do the peace-at-any-price party at the North and the armistice men know what mischief they are brewing? I believe that there are men among them who, if they were aware of the aid they are unconsciously giving to the enemy, would at once cease from the agitation with which they have suffered themselves to be identified. Every demonstration of a desire on their part to come to terms with the rebels iz hailed with delight by the seces- sionists, who look on such manifestations as evidences of a desire on the partof a majority in the North to.close this war by fe patil ge the independence of the South. Is it any wonder that Union men in this section are discouraged, and that the brave fellows who are fight- —, vattles of their country—periling their lives to up! the national honor—should be dismayed at these symptoms of a desire to abandon the cause for which har are struggling? ton is beginning to come im in increased quantities.

Barton Rovas, La., Jan. 28, 1963. Ihe Rebels Reinforced at Port Hudson and the Defences ‘Strengthened—Desertions to the Eneny—The Rebels Offer to Receive all Deserters and Send Them North as Paroled Prisoners of War—The Negro Regiments, dc. , dc, ‘The Hxnain’s map and description of the rebe) defences of Port Hudson, published on the 12th fnet., are admitted on all sides to have been correct; but what was strictly true at the time the map was drawn and the description written is not true now; for the enemy, understanding the value of time, has strained every energy to strengthen his defences at that important point. RABEL REINFORCEMENTS. ‘The effective Sighting force at Port Hudson unti) recent ly has been lees than ten thousand men; but within the last few days this force bas been materially augmented. Has the Union force at Baton Rouge been reinforced and organized? Did not the rebels know it, and whenever » regiment arrived from New Urleang were not the military authorities over the line promptly informed of the fact by their faithfal allies and spies in this city? And while ‘bat regiment was coming from New Orleans, were not a thousand conscripts also on their way to Port Hudson? Were not two thousand slaves making wider the ditches and more Impaseable the Abatis in front of the rebel earthworks? ‘Was not tims ihore useful to them than to us? No sooner did our troops at this point assume a memac- ing attitude than the fighting force at Port Hudson was Tapidly increased, and it is now probably little Jess than twenty thousand. When I speak of our troops as assum- ing @ menacing attitude, Ido not mean that they have advanced; but I do mean that a wonderful improvement has been made recently in their organization and disposi- tion... From a state of semi-chaos they bave been brought to order, and a temporary and clumsy organization,estab- lished only becange nothing better coulé be done under the circumstances, has been superseded by one which renders our army formidable and effective. The rebels were quite ag weil aware of this as was the general who accomplished it. Whilé our force was comparatively un- organized for a forward movement the enemy contented | himself with keeping his negroes at work on the intrench- ments; but the moment our forces were made fit for an advance he hurried forward his conscripts to meet us, | man to man. | _ Leannot with propriety speak definitely of what has | been done here. But the result on the other side is that | thousands of acresof woods have been levelled to the round to obstruct the passage of an attacking force; ery road and approach has been made in bio, #0 jar as eogineering skill and negro labor could accomplish it; the earthworks have been strengthened in every posei- ble way, aud the fighting force the enemy within a | week has been increaed from ten thousand to twenty thousand men, Thus this position, which, with a proper | foree, might have been carried six weeks ago without diificulty, has day by day grown to ben second Vicks- Durg, and it will now withstand a bloody and protracted siege. It is to the lower Mississippi what Vicksburg is to the upper—‘ihe butt and very seamark of our utmost eaj)”’—and will require @ great escrifice of life befere it yields to an assault IMPORTANT DISCOVERY—DRERRTERS TO BE PAROLRD AND SENT NORTH. Within the last few days a number of desertions have taken place. As the arrangements for preventing the desertion of soldiers on the boats going to New Orleans were #0 complete as to render escape in this way quite impossible, it was justly supposed that the deserters must go over to the ‘enomy; and this belief was strengthened by the fact that two of our men deserted from the picket line on Monday night, There was no doubt but they went from their poste to the enemy’s country. Great vigilance was exercised to discover the secret of this disgraceful conduct, and yesterday this vigilance was rewarded. A man who attempted to get inside our lines | Was arrested, and ov his person were founa memoranda | to certain soldiers, from which it appeared that these ras- cals bad made arrangements with the enemy to desert at | four o'clock in the morning: but now they were advised to desert at two o'clock instead, as there was a proba- Dility that Baton Rouge would be astacked before the hour agreed pon. It also appeared that the rebels had made @ standing ofr that all Union soldiers who should de- fert should be guaranteed safe conduct through the enemy's country, and should be sent across the lines North as paroled prisoners of war The number who had shown any disposition to avail themselves of such ignominious termes was very ipsignit- cant. Of course none but traitors or the most abject cowards would accept such an offer, and the army is better off without them. THE XEGR@ QUESTION—RNAIGNATION OF OFFICERS, Tn my last letter to the Hixratp from this city I gave an account of the arrival of @ negro regiment here—the Third Native Louisiana Volunteers, Colonel Nelson—and the eat commotion caused by the event among both oflicera and soldiers, ‘The regiment was quartered inside the fortifications, re- lieving @ regiment of whites, which was sent out to the front. They were at once set to work on fortifica- | tions and in leveling certain ruined walls to the ground, to clear 4 way for the range of our artillery; and it was also made known that the regiment was not to be put intoany brigade with white soldiers, This quieted much of the excitement which had been created by the coming of the regiment. Nevertheless, there is still a strong feeling on the subject, and th ughtful officers are not without appre- pone that serious mischief will reeult from this ¢x- riment. ier offcore—two of them belonging to the One Han- dred and Thirty-third New York (Seoond Metropolitan) — have rent in their resignation, placing it squarely upon the ground that the government has determined to make soldiers of the negr. 68 and two of these resignations bave Already been forwarded to the commanding general of tho Gepartment for his action. @ principal objection to negro regiments in the fact that a part of the officers are biack and a part white, and ‘the fear that they will be briguded with the whites, aod that white soldiers will be required to salute black officers. PRORARLE ORGAMIRATION OF XRGRO RBCIMENTS, It te the opinion of your correspondent thas these clr- oumstances have received the careful consideration of General Banks, apd that an organization will be effected which, while it will make availiable the large negro force which’ may be #0 readily brought tovether, will at the name tine avoid the principal objections aguinst colored regiments “fim organization must necosearily recognize the prejr- dice which exists against the begry race, but it will at ine fame time appeal to the prive of the veyro and conmiaitly hold bevure bim Mducements to become a good and faith fol soldier.

Alaanr, Feb. 10, 1868. _ Several remonstrances were this morning presented against the passage of @ bill authorizing the Supervisors to levy taxes to pay bounties to volunteers, Some of these remonstrances were signed by negroes, radical or copperhead democrats and rampant abolitionist. Thus we have another proof of the adage that “birds of a feather flook together.” The Committeo on Ratlroads, on the part of the Assem- bly, have given notice that they wili hold a session of their committee on Friday afternoon next, on the subject of allowing railroads to run “dummy”? engines on their tracks through the streets of cities. Those cempanics which are asking for this privilege from the hands of the Legislature are the Hudson River Railroad and the Brook- lyn and Jamaica Ratiroad. Tho object of their giving this is that both sides can bave an opportunity to be heard, The rat!roads have been busy in circulating their petitions in favor of the project, and the committee are ‘anxious to hear what the property holders along the roates have to say on the question. Several bills were introduced in the’House this morning relative to different interests in New York city. The bill to amend the Metropelitan Police bill, referred to in this correspondence in Saturday’s HeRaLD, was introduced by Mr. Dean, and an effort made to refer it to the delegation representing the Metropolitan Police district. This stirred ‘up quite a contest, which fivally resulted in ite reference to the Standing Commities on Affairs of Cities. The Spring Street Railroad was soon after introduced and referred by the Speaker to the Committee on Affairs of Cities. Mr. Ward, of New York, immediately moved that it be referred to the Committee on Railroads, Alter a short debave the yeas and nays were called, resulting in the adoption of the motion of Mr. Ward. Tots is signi- ficant in reference to the fate of the railroad bills of this session, and is the first indication of the feeling of the ‘Houre ov city railroads. ‘The Senate passed “finally two important bills relative to the banking interests of this State. The first was to give the directors of any banking association power to ix the number of directors necessary for ® quorum when- ever the bylaws or rules of the ‘tion have not fixed ‘the aumber necessary. The second bill is to carry out ‘the intent and purposes of the general banking law in reference to the enforcement of assessments on the atock- holders ef insolvent banks. The general law ie imperfect on that point, and this bill is simply for the purpose of preventing the delay and ending the numerous uibbtes of the stockholders of such institutions. There js still another bill back, which authorizes ® second fo pot suffi cient to pay off the creditors of the banks. Thig last measuro is meeting with a strong opposition, and will hardly pase this session. Nearly every banking association in the state opposes it. Senator Cook made a report from a standing committee of the Senate to which that subject wag referred adverse to paying the interest on the State incoin, on the ground that the contract made with parties who have taken the State loan was that interest, &c., should be paid in current funds at Albany. He presented a lengthy ‘written reporton the sub,ect. It will be remembered that this same Senator took an active stand during the Jast session against the payment of the principal and in- terest of the State debt that became due Jast summer in coin, but his opposition at that time had no weight whatever. He was then unable 10 influence any member of the Legislature but himself, and it is reason- able to eo cad now that the feeling isso universal and & great deal stronger than it was last year for the pay- ment of the interest on the Btate debt in coin, that his influence will not be much more potent than it was at the last session of the Legislature on that subject. Senator Murphy introduced a bill creating a mew oode of laws for quarantine. The billis exceedingly lengthy, and so mixed up in u general muddle that it is necessary 0 await the arrangement of its principal features before it will be safe to say what it aims at and how it will af- fect the quarantine interests. Return of Senator Morgan to New Yorkh— Resolut! for & “Grind Commit- tee”—Debate on the Question ef Arbi- trary Arrests, &c, ALany, Feb. 10-10 P. M. Senator E. D, Morgan returned to New York by the afternoon train to-day. Resolutions for the appointment of a Grinding Com- mitteo”’ were introduced in the Assembly to-day. This is an early day to bring forward this legislative nuisance and curse of the State. Thero have been only about half a dozen bills reported by the standing committees of the House, and to bring forward a ‘Grinding Committee” at this stage, and thus play into the hands of the jobbers, ig, to say the least, somewhat bold. Rut what is still ‘worse is a cons@tutional provision that makes it neces- sary for the Legislature to resort to that course to legis- assesment when the frat lave for the interests of se important @ State as New | York, The Assembly was in session this evening on the question of arbitrary arrests. Mr. Prinile, of Chenango, a thorough believer in Greeley and ail his fems, opened the debate with a legal argumens in favor of the arrests. He cited the case of Aaron Burr and the arrest made by Andrew Jackson at New Orleans. as well ‘au the course that Stephon A. Douglas and otber demo: crats took in the Houge of Representatives on the paseage of the resolution refunding to Geseral Jackson the $1,000 that he putd-as fino, with interest, as precedent and justi. fication of the course’ of the national administration. From that he passed to iilostrations of the right of indi- viduals to take the Iaw into their own bands*in certain emergencies, and argued that the government had the same right. He next wnderwok to justify the principle, as a ational question, involved in arbitrary arrests. He spoke at some length on this point and made a fair argument, probably as strong as any member in the Assembly on that ide, Not a word, however, ercaped bis mouth in justi‘ication of the mode of making arrests by the administratkn, by baving irre- sponsible persons—men whore enthusiasm runs away with their judgment-—arresting on rumors put in eiroula. tion for that very purpose by pergonal enemies of the ac- cused, Heapprove the course of those judges who re- fuged to grant writs of habeas corpus. Through the in- terruptions during his speech he was forced to admit that the othor side did not object to the arreste, but to the fact that they were conied the legal right of a trial and peaiche, if guilty, and discharged, if innocent. He, wever, approved ‘of the act, In denying the right of trin}, and thus placed himself on untevable ground, Mr. Talman, of Westchester, followed, in opposition to the system of arbitrary arrests and denial of a trial be foro a jury of the peers of the accused.

The celebration con- sisted first of a parade, and ended with a grand dinner at the barracoons. The parade was the great feature of the day. It consistett of about two hundred and afty he niggers, of all sizes, ages and complexions, marehing im columns of twos, with proper officers. They were commanded by “Sandy,” a venerable nigger of buge proportions, formerly the property ef Mr. Baldwin, of this place. It was a matter of doubt for some time defore Mr. Baldwin left Key West— says the oldest inhabitant—if he belonged to Sandy or Sandy belonged to nim. Sandy to-day evidently felt his importance. He was attired in a full suitof black, with a sash and rosette on his breast of enormous size and of the most gaudy colors; he had suspended to bis si cavairy sabre, and wore an army fatigue cap, His mar- tal bearing and the resemblance of his foot to that of a acrubbing brush, with his leg for a handle, were remarked on every side. All conceivable costumes could have been found in the procession, and all shades or color, from the light straw, showing only a slight ‘Jick of the tar brusb,’? to the blackest ebony, An the procession moved through the streets it was flanked on either side by a crowd of wenches, dressed in their beet attire and present- tpg the appearance of a walking rainbow, and the Dumber of pigger children in advance of and fol Jowing the processsion showed the African race to be Jargely on the increase. As they marched on, cheers were given, over and over again, for Mr. Ferguson, Captain Curtis and the other prominent aboli- ba. tionists of Key West, and they finally drought up at the Baptist church, where services were performed, The darkeys were not unmolested in their march. They were pelted with stones on several! parts of tbe route: basing of dirty water were emptied on their devoted head: ral were knocked down, aud the American flag, which they were marching, was taken from them and the staff broken over the head of the bearer. No us OUt- break occurred; but there would have been had not the provost guard peen out in foree. Not one person among those who have heretofore borne the reputation of being disloyal interfered in any manner with the celebration. The dinner, 1 understand, gives every promise of being @ grand affair; but, not being one ef favored with an invitation, J shall bave to imagine all that will be said and done on the occasion. It is @ moet fortunate occurrence for all concerned, Dut especially for the whitewashed niggers—i. ¢., aboli- tioniste—that the thermometer to-day was as low ag fiity- two degress—six degrees lower than it has previously been. this winter.

The Hunteville brings as passen free people of color, consisting principally of women and children. Aasoon as they arrived they found em- ployment among our citizens; but when they found that employment meant work they left their employers, some in an hour after they landed, and are now parading the streets doing nothing, and they will soon become a tax upon either the general or city government, Hurrah for the emancipation proclamation and universal freedom.

Her crew, consisting of nineteen seamen, ten ordinary seamen, eighteen landsmen, two boys, three first class fremen and seven coalheavers, making @ total of sixty-nine, were taken from the Navy Yard to Chester $n a tugboat. Captain Guest, the commander of the San- gamon, the Commandant at the Navy Yard, ané several other naval officers were on board the tug. On reaching Chester the iron-clad moved out into the stream and an- chored. Capt. Guest then took charge of the Monitor, and after themen had been called ther addressed them in @ brief and patriotic speech. wharves in front of the yard where the iron-clad was built were crowded with citizens of Chester, who were anxious to see the Sangamon leave for her destination.
