Secretary Chase. in the course of some
remarks addressed to the New York Bank
ers last week-according to the New York
World-gave strong and pointed assuran-
ces that the Government now saw their
way clearly to quell the rebellion; that they
had information which warranted him in
saying that the public would soon hear
glad tidings of success, more startling end
more effective in their results than those
from Port Royal and the West; that nei-
ther the Government nor Gen. Mcclellan
ever had the least idea of placing the army
in winter quarters, but. on the contrary.
the military plans all contemplated regular.
systematic. and energetic activity in push
ing forward upon the rebels as prudence
and judgment dictated; that Government
had ample funds to supply every liability
until February first. and that all the ma
chinery of the Departments was gradually
working into very satisfactory state Of
of efficiency. Taf ai

the English Government not only refused

Bragg of Victory.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 29.--The haqxsrer
has the following dispatch from Fortress
Monroe. dated the 9th:
Passengers by flag of truce from Nos-
folk, this morning. furnishes some furthes
news in regard to the fight at Fort Pick
ems. These particulars it must be rensem-
bered, come through rebel sources. Cen
Bragg had not made breach IN the Fort.
as was before reported.
Great excitement was prevalent thro' 'ous
the Sonth respecting the battle. but 1t was
thought Bragg would be able to fore: Col.
Brown to surrender.
A messenger arrived from Pensacola. on
Sunday last. with peremptory order for
reinforcements. Bragg was at that time
hopeful of an early SUCCESS. and was re-
plying upon the Fortress with great effect
His regular sslvos are described as being
really terrible The General was perfect
ly cool and confident. No breach had yet
been made, but on Monday one would b
manifest. when Bragg expected reinforce-
ments, and would storm with fresh troops
and ordinance.
Col. Brown hal concentrated . perfect
storm of shot and she'll upon the Navy
Yard. burning it down. together with ell
the ont buildings. aad . considerable .
mount Of ordnance stores. Pensacola had
been evacuated by order of Gen. Bragg.
Col. Brown had called to his assistance
five vessels of war. all of which had been
driven of by the batteries. The steam
frigate Niagara was almost riddled with
shot, and the Colorado thoroughly disa-
bled.
Gen. Bragg had declared to his troops
that he would never surrender alive. sod
the greatest enthusiasm prevailed among
the men.
On Tuesday Gen. Bragg would engage
Col. Brown in front. and land force on
The Island. so as to take him in the rear.
It is generally believed thst "a action
has taken place at Pensacola. between our
vessels aad the rebels, and thst Bragg has
been whipped. Pensacola bsEned. aud
probably Bragg's whole foscs captured.-

The rebel blockade of the Potomac river

there for account of the Government. Gen.
Sherman was also directed to use the ne
gro slaves to gather and secure the crops
of cotton and corn. and to erect his defen-
ses at Port Royal and other places on the
Island.

with suitable contingent of cavalry and
artillery. 1t marched last night to its po-
sition, which is between the divisions OF
Gems, heintzelman and Franklin. the for
mer having beeen pushed some distance
further down the river.
There is a report here to-day that the
rebel steamer Nashville has run the block
ade off Charleston. and entered that por,
with valuable cargo, consisting of wool
ems, arms, wires for telegraphic use. salt,
etc. While this report comes only through
rebel channels, there is reason to believe it.
as one of our Cousuls notified the Govern
mcnt some time since that the Nashville
was loaded in a certain foreign port, and
was intending to run the blockade.
Government is expecting news to arrive
from Fort Pickens in about two days.
The War Department is hourly expect
ing the announcement from Gen. Sherman
that he has taken possession of the rebel
Notifications commanding the entrance to
St. Helena Sound about ID miles north ol
Port Royal. and commanding the outlet Of
the Coosaw and Combahee rivers. thus So
curing the entire control of all tho ap-
proaches from the Ocean to the cluster oI
sea islands, an affording another avenue
for a movement towards the interior of the
Palmetto kingdom.
The rebels are already falling back from
the Potomac before the slow but certain
advance of the Union forces. They hard
ly offer resistance to the passing of our yes
sells. Many have come up within the las
few days loaded with coal to such an ex
tent as to lower the price Of that article
from SO to 81.
Letters received from the prisoners o
the California Regiment, now in Rich
inond. show that but few were killed a
the battle of Balls Bluff. Many which i
was supposed had been killed. are nov
prisoners there, and it is confidently as
serted by the officers. that fifty will includ,
the whole number Of the dead from th'
fight
The Reliance came up to the navy yart
from Indian Head last evening. Captain
Hammond reports that just before he left
at half past one o'clock. heavy fire was
opened from the rebel batteries at Shipping
Point. Three or four shots were fret
while the Reliance was in sight or hearing
Nothing can be ascertained in regard to th'
object the rebels were firing at. No yes
sci appeared beyond Stump Neck; conse
quently the supposition is that the bate
ries opened on the Maryland shore.

understand there is another company
being raised in Marshall for the war
"Bully for Marshall" as we say in camp.
All the Government wants to bring this
wicked rebellion to an end speedily is the
men, and she has them. Then, all that is
lacking on the part of those whose circum-
stances allow Of their enIisting is either
patriotism or courage. know you have
some rank tories in your town. and il moth
ing worse happens them it will be cast in
their teeth and their childrcns teeth down
to the third and fourth generation.
For my part have no complaints to
make of the hardships Of camp life. They
are no worse than anticipated. and as l
made up my mind IN advance to endure
them patiently. it would be inconsistent
for me to growl. 1t always seemed to me
when q man murmured at the hardness of
his lot that he had not the ring of genuidV
metal. There is ne situation in life in
which man does not encounter difficulties,
trials. privstions. and if he succumbs to
them what is he? An imbccile, a dronc.
Such is not the stuff soldiers are made Of,
and all who are composed Of such base
sdmixture had better not enlist in the ar
mics of the Republic. They may answer
a useful purpose in some situations, but
the camp or battle field is no place for them.
These remarks are intended in part as o
reply to such questions as the following,
which have been propoundcd to me in let
ters / have received: "How do you like
sold;ering?" "Is not camp life harder
than you expecteds" "If you were at
home now would you volunteer" And
great many other questions insinuating
as though they thought 1 was sick of my
bargain. Now the candid truth. in few
words. in regard to the matter is this: II l
were at home again and knowing all that
l do now. should enlist in the first com
pany that thought would have good Of
icers;-I like soldering" much better
than expected when / enlisted. and as
for "camp life" should rather endure the
few privations incident thereto, than to
bear the taunts and insinuations couched
in the resolutions of the Young ladies meet
ing held in Logansport not long since. TO
say nothing of my duty to my country.
Here is short extract from one of my
correspondents letters: II suppose you
think if | were with you would be in a
good canse; we'll, perhaps l would. but
:hen you know that some must stay at
home to raise food for the soldiers" That
is true, but the old men and the girls can
do that. If "Shub" and all other young
men who can volunteer as well as he can
would ''pitch in" my opinion is that we
could all go home in the spring and "raise
food for the soldiers" together.
But. fearing | may become tedious and
weary your readers, will closes If any
thing of Importance happens soon you
shall be notified in due season.
Yours. with respect.
