Fort Pickens is now place to which
considerable interest attaches. Its recent
reinforcement, and the detachment from it
of the marine. guards temporarily landed
from the ships off Pensacola, have caused
confused ideas of the strength of its garri-
son to be entertained. Several erroneous
statements on the subject having lately ap-
peared in the papers, we append a correct
one, promising that arrangements have been
made by which 400 artillerists and
boarders " from the fleet could be sent
over at any time. Annexed are the COM
panies now in the fort

reports his conversation with Secretary
Seward. He told Mr.. Seward of the deter
mined feeling in New York to sustain the

versation with Post Master General Blair,
who gave him the programme of the Gov
eminent, and thinks it will be effective in

WASHINGTON, May 9th.-The published
letter to DaytoA, Minister to France, is un-
derstood to be an index TO the entire Euro
pean correspondence. 1t is understood that
the Government has received from Minister
Dallas an account of an interview with
Palmerston. The result of which justifes
the assertion that there is no indication or
prospect of the recognition of the Confeder-
ate States by any of the foreign powers,
against the protest of the Administration
Mr.. Preston's next dispatch from Spain, in
reply to demand for explanations relative
to San Domingo, and also about n recogni-
ton of the Southern Confederacy, is looked
for with much interest. Mr.. Preston, al
though a Kentuckian, is loyal, and is I'M
derstood to be acting in such a manner as
to meet the appreciation Of the Administra-
ton.
All the foreign ministers are anxiously
making inquiries about the blockade but
not word of complaint has been uttered.
