Since the sailing of the Columbia on the 10th inst., nothing has transpired of general importance, The com- munity, however, aro almost daily treated by reports by the “ grapevine” telegraphic news from * Dixie,” an- nouncing the movements of the two great armies in Northern Georgia. These reports are the inventions of the morbid minds of New Orleans secessionists. With them the manufacture of these reports has become a second nature. One day they insist that Rosecrans’ army has been knocked into ‘‘ smithereens,” that there is not a grease spot left to mark his defeat, and that there are not federals enough left to make a corporal’s guard or a de- cent burial party. The rebels here seem to hope againet hope, aud subsist upon such frothy mental food as I have described. Onco in a while their hearts are touched by a spark of generosity, and, instead of wiping out Rosecrans, they say he has met with a defeat from Bragg. An exception to this ruleof fabricating rebel news is now and then found in the ut. terances of educated secessionists, who boldly assert that Mt was the hope and expectation of Bragg and the Rich- mond government to have gained a complete and decisive victory over Rosecrans at Chickamauga. In this they were disappointed, as the full history of the affair plainly shows, They claim a great victory; but it was achieved at the expevse of the lives of many of the “chiva’rous” fons of the South, One more such victory to the rebels, and they are undone. The conscription of all able bodied negroes in the parts of Louisiana under Union control is being en- forced with vigor. Evidences of it were seen in this city last Saturday as squids of them were brought ato town under guards composed of troops of ‘unbleached American citizens of African descent,’ The negro conscripts seem not to understand the reason of this involuntary service, and consider it in the light of a sort of imprison- ment for deeds they know not of. The conscription of the Degroes at this time promises a harmful tendency in gath- ering the sugar, 1 200m be ready to gather: It was estimal the hegrres Dad not been oon, scripted, the plantations directly tilled by the gov ernment would bave yielded five thousand hogsheads, and other plantations under Union protection fifteen thou- sand hogsheads. Under existing circumstances, such as Thave mentioned, not one-half of the crop will be gath- ered. I would suggest to the government, and to Mr, Chase in particular, that the sugar cane crops now in the soil im this department be at once given away to some private parties atthe North or West, to get it out and made into sugar as best they may, so as to prevent the logs of a crop, which now has the promise of being a good one. ‘Tho restrictiins on the local press in the pubication of army nows is stil! in force, with no signs of repeal or mo- ification. It is generally considered an uupeccssary measure. The rebe'lion has been reduced to euch an influitessimal size, compared to what it was a few months ago, that we can afford to be penerous, and the press of New Orlears should be allowed ag wide a freedom in the publicetion ‘of news av the most favored of other cities.

I have been refbested by numerous officers of the Thirteenth army corps to correet a falre impression which has gone abroad in relation to the condition of. the command at a recent in- srection. In the official report of the officer who made the inspection of the troops, their arms, clothing and equipments were represented as very bad, and a recommendation was made for the disbandment of one of the regimenta—the Nineteenth Jowa. The officers of the corps represent that the outsides of the soldiers’ muskets were allowed to rast by order of General Grant, who adopted this plan as a precantionary measure to keop our men from being prominent marks to the ene my’s sbarpshooters, as they would be did they carry burnished muskets, In regard to the poor quality of the clothing, the corps bad just come from the gallant siege of Vicksburg, and they had not time to shake the dust of the battle field from it. The inspecting officer, who bad never “smelt gunpowder,’’ forgot all these points, and hence his adverse report. It is said that he came to make the inspection in a state of intoxication, and commenced bis ofMfcial act by domg a very uumilitary thing by addressing the troops. At the close of the inspection it is. alleged he asked one of the gene- rale of the corps for a drink of whiskey, when tho efficer replied that he thonght be had all he could stand under.

Tho works and the remaining salt were destroyed. About two miles further down the coast they found a more extensive fac- tory, capable of turning out thirty bushels a day. Jt was also cextroyed.

The follow ing is an approximate statement of the pablic debt on the 1st of September, 1863:-— Old publ debt, average interest five and a balf per cent............ . ‘Three yoars’ 7 3-10th bonds. Two years’ six per cent bond United States notes ctional currence: war det 4 Cortibeater of indettedncen, x per cent... Five-tiventy bonds, six per cent ola due Treasury notes... ‘Whjch, in addition to the items given, is made up of the four cent and five per cent temporary loans and the suspended requisitions, whieh mean the requisitions mado upon tbe Treasury not paid. About a month ago these amounted to seventy-five millions, bus there is reason to Delieve that at the present time they do not amount to more than twenty-five millions, This would give us at the present time an interest bearing debt of from even hundred and fifty to eight buo- dred millions, On the Ist of May, 1863, the average rate of interest on the interest bearing public debt wae only three ond five sixty-sixths per cent. On account of the large increase of sales of five twenty bonds since then the rate of interest hag been slightly increased. 10 4g impossible at present wo arrive at an accurate state- mentof the whole debt, as !t is sbifting from day to day, and the statement for the reports to Congress is just be- ing made ont, INTERVIEWS OF GOVERNORS WITH WITH THE PRESI- During the past week the President has received visits from th® Governors of five States, to arrange with re- ference to the quotas to be called for under the pew draft, In every instance the proper credits of volunteers has deen accorded and the governors have been satisfied with the fairness of the preparations for the draft, Jt ts understood that the volunteers under the new call will all be credited to the several States furnishing them, and the bounties accorded, It is hoped that the patiotism Of the people will entirely do away with the necersity of the draft, GILLMORE AND DANLGREN. ‘The press has approached this subject with a gingerly tonch, perhaps in doubt as to the existence of a contro. versy between the two commanders indicated above; perhaps from a praiseworthy reluctance to foment a dif fioulty ag yet undeclared, or to complicate by premature agitation the relations existing between men charged with so important a trust, and jn whoee councils harmo- ny is so essential. Probably the course pureued has thus far been a wise one, but it ie doubtful whether # ticence is any longer advisable, There is no quarrel be: tween Gillmore and Dabigren, petty squabbles are foreign to the nature of both; but it is useless to deny that a ques tion of grave import is at issue between them—namely: who is responsible for the long pause ini our offensive ope rations against Charleston. It 4 fair to presume that the mattor has only lately token this defiaite shape. No lack of what is popularly described as cooperation has been complained of; no personal or professional jeat ousies have been permitted to spring ap. The dif. ficuity bas a deeper root, and it bas been uniformly treated by both General Gilmore and Admiral Vableren in a spirit worthy of their high office. It is qufliciently well known that in the programme for the combined tack on Charlestonj a distinct and well defived part was assigned to rach arm of the service, and that this as- rignment wae made upon a careful consideration of the resources respectively at their dupomal, Co-operation— prompt, hearty, cordial eo-operation—was doubtless counted upon; bat the ultimate realization of the plan was made’ brolutely to depend upon the succers of two Aistioet operations. Un the 24d of August, when the bombardment of Bam- ter ceased, it was readily conceded on all hands that the fort was demolished, and should no longer be counted among the defences of the city, On the 7th of Septem ber the capture of Forts Wagner and Gregg completed the occupation of Morris Island. Here ended the task which the army was to perform. This wax Gillmore’s under- taking, and bis pledge was redeemed. Nearly sixty days have passed since the last of these achievements was con surnmated, and men have waited patiently for the seoond act of the drama, but the curtain is flow t rise, The Monitors swing idly to their anchors off Morris Inland, while prectous moments aro slipping away and hostile batteries are acournulating on every ble point of the cireumference of the barbdor, from James to Sullivan's Island. No one can believe that this state of thiogs will be | allowed to exint without severe cenware being teurred by ‘one of both commanders, indeed, it i highly probable that, jostly or unjnatty, both will be tnade to wustain & share of the odjam. No man knows this beter than General Gillmore, and he canuot but feel keenly the false position in which he is placed by the prenont state of a! fairs, bound, as he is, toa #ystem of operations in which ho has alrendy played his part puecessfully,and in the failure of which, though due to no fault of bie, bis rep tation regme likely to be involved, In juntice to Admiral Dahlgren, it shoald be admitted im this connection that plans conceived in Washington, and appearing perfectiy feasible (rom that point of view, may wear « very cif ferent aapeet when contemplated in the light euppled by a closer view of the difficulties to be encountered.
