The Philadelphia North American of the

"Next week the PHuix Iron Company

Late and Interesting from Fort Pickens.
A correspondent of the New York Times
writes from tho feet off Fort Pickens under
date of May 10th:
There is now no use in concealing the
fact that the fight hero will be one of the
most desperate of the war. Our prepara-
tions are progressing rapidly; and fully JUS
tify us in tho opinion that Fort Pickens is
almost impregnable. But the gigantic
strides made by Bragg's command, may
we'll prevent us from anticipating quiet
capture of the Navy Yard and Barrancas,
the possession of which is necessary to the
end of hostlities in these parts. Now it is
on the best authority that inform you that
the Secessionists ashore muster 10000
available fighting men, Notwithstanding the
previous estimate.
They are scattered for miles around, and
have some of tho best officers in Americs
to regulate their movements. There arc
at least six batteries that may open fire or

exact places in which they are situated nc

that on land at present the Secessionist

Federal troops. Take all our available
men from the ships, and you cannot make
up one-third of our enemies strength
There have been serious impediments, too

it is now very doubtful whether, forts ef

Montgomery and Warrington are connected

Troops moved into Wcslern virginia.

Twenty-Five hundred U. S. troops were
moved Monday from the Ohio river 10 Graf
ton, the junction Of the two western branch
es of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
among them were the 14th aud 2lst Ohio
regiments, which were lately at Camp Tay-
lor. Grafton is about one hundred miles
from Wheeling. 1t has been reported that
there were fifteen hundred secession troops
at that point. If that is so, there is a pros
pect of brush with the enemy. Doubtless
this movement was made with view to the
approaching convention of WesternVirginia.
The 2lst regiment is composed almost
wholly Of companies from the north western
counties of Ohio; among them are two from
Wood county, two from Putnam, two from
Hancock, one from Seneca, and one from
Ottowa. Many of these men are personally
known to three-fourths of the people OF
Sandusky county. Should they be called
into conflict, we will warrant every man to
do his duty. They all remember FIT Steph-
euson and the gallant Croghan.
