BY LAST NIGHTS SOUTHERN MAIL.
Weare still without further intelligence from
the Army. Should later news arrive this even
ing, it will be Immediately ISIS ued in an extra
Clipper.
We copy the following paragraphs from the
New Orleans papers ofthe Sth inst:
PriUatsering. we learn that arrangements
have been made by some American merchants
at Havana, to take out Mexican letters ofmar-
que in order to prey upon American commerce.
The Consul at Havana has transmitted the
names of at least two to our government. 1t is
certain, however, that whoever is found on
board any of these letters of marque, not ge-
nuine Mexican citizen, will be suspended as pi-
rates at the yard arms of our national vessels
and those in this country who are engaged in
fitting them out be hung as traltors.-Delta.
R,tmor of PriuateerS. We heard last even
ing that an affidavit has been made before
Judge MeCabel, of the U. S. District Court, to
the effect that vessels in this port were about
preparing to sail as prvateers against American
commerce. This rumor may be true or not,
but it certainly becomes the officers Of our GUS
toms to be on the alert.-Picayune.
Volnltee,S. We learn from the Office of the
oCuCIdi VI lllt DIdJc GlG-
ven companies, comprising TIA men rank and
file, have already been mustered into service,
and that acquisitions have been made on the
department for nine companies more, compris-
ing Ga men more, making in all l4l5 men;
from 1900 to 1900 must yet be raised to COM
plete the number which Louisiana is to fur
nish. This deficiency will, we suppose, have
to be made up by the contemplated draft
Delta.
Government Stores. The brig Apalachcola
and the schooners Enterprise, Harriet Smith
and Southerner, cleared yesterday from this
port for Brasas Santiago, loaded with Govern
ment stores for the use Of the army.-Pica-
yune.
Safely Of Captain Thornton and Ii. .Mason.-
The Charleston Evening News learns from a
reliable source that these two officers arrived
safely in Gen. Taylor's camy.
Mobile Volunteers. Two more companies OF
volunteers, under Capts, Crawford and Hagen,
were to leave Mobile on the lth instant for
Point Isabel.
Drafting. We learn that the Governor has
issued orders for draft and that the enroll
ment of persons liable to military duty will be
commenced this morning and continued to-mor.
