News from New Orleans.

NEW York, July 28.-The steamer Marion,
from New Orleans on the Goth, arrived at
three o'clock.
The health of the city is good-two thousand
men being engaged in cleaning the streets.
The news of the exploits of The rebel ram
Arkansas caused some excitement, but it soon
quieted down.
Beauregard is reported to be very sick by
the Mobile papers.
The New Orleans papers contain no news OF
importance.
The Richmond Enquirer of the gath con-
tains the following:
Two negroes were hung at Kingston, N.
O., for recruiting for Burnside.
"a gentleman from North Carolina states
that the Yankees, being oppressive on Roam
oke Island, the negroes rose and killed a large
number OF them. Subsequently the Yankees
massacred about eight hundred of the negroes
and evacuated the Island"
This story is canard as it is known that
large numbers of negroes have been sent thence
to General Mcclellan, which may account for
the evacuation.

The New York Commercial Advertiser,
which has been among the staid conservative
journals of the country, concludes a recent ar
ticle as follows:
1.-THE war, too, has brushed away some of
our speculations in regard to slavery. We
now know that slavery is an element of
strength and not of weakness to our enemy,
and that there is no prevalent disposition or
tendency of the slaves to revolt. We know,
too, that the institution keeps the South in food
while all the able bodied whites are banded
together in their furious resistance to the gov
eminent. This knowledge has been slowly
acquired, but with its acquisition comes the
other conviction, that slavery shall have no
more sacredness, and that it is our duty to
weaken our enemy in his strongest points.
We think we have discovered the Joint of the
armor wherein the keen blade may penetrate
to the vitals. Let those who have drawn the
sword see to it that its fateful thrust is not
withheld, and remember that short, sharp and
decisive action may end the war and its cause
together

The Milwaukee Sentinel quotes the recent
remarks of the World on the subject of pro-
noting faithful privates and non-commissioned
officers, and subjoins the following letter to
show that "Gov. Solomon is determined to
remedy our past omissions so far as his State is
concerned" His circular is addressed to the
Colonel of each Wisconsin regiment:
State of Wisconsin, Executive Department
Madison, July s, 1862.
This State being called upon for several new
regiments of volunteers, it is my earnest de-
sire to find some method by which, in their
organization, can testify my appreciation of
the fidelity, gallantry, and soldierly qualities
of some, at least, of the non-commissloned
officers and privates in the regiments from this
State which have been longest in the field. 1t
is difficult to do this, since the companies and
regiments must be raised by the efforts of men
who are in the State, and the commissions will
properly be expected by those who raise the
men; but shall use my best efforts to bring
about the desired end.
For this purpose l earnestly request the
Captain of each company to recommend, in
concurrence with his Lieutenants, such of his
non-commisaioned officers or men as have ex-
hibted such qualities as to fit them in re-
markable degree for commissions. These
recommendations should be handed to the
Colonels recommending the several regiments
and request that the Colonies, in conference
with the field officers, select from the numbers
so recommended not more than ten persons
for each regiment, and forward their names
Immediately to me, preparing the list IN the
supposed order of merit. This should be done
| as speedily as possible.
While cannot, of course, promise commits
sions to all the persons who shall be so named
to me, shall spare no pains to testify to as
many of them as possible my appreciation of
their patriotism, bravery, and soldierly attain
ments; and l trust that, through contem-
plated arrangements with the War Depart
ment, may soon be able to crafty my wishes
in this respect, and do justice to some at least,
Of the gallant heroes who have left Wisconsin
homes to peril their lives at the call of their
country. EDWARD SALoMoE,
Governor of Wisconsin.
The promotions, medals of honor, the ap-
probation in short, which the privates of the
armies of Bonaparte always had, were one
secret Of his success.

WAsHINGToN, July 2l.-The following is
an extract from a recent dispatch received at
the War Department, and addressed to Hon.
E. IL. Stanton, from Gen. Saxton, dated Beau
fort, S. G., July 10.
g. have the honor to report that everything
pertaining TO the special service for which
am sent to this department, is in favorable
condition. The negroes are working indus
triously. We have some fifteen thousand
acres of Germ and cotton under cultivation
1t looks well. The system of volunteer labor
works admirably. The people are contented
and happy. When the new crop is harvested,
they will cease to be burden on the Govern
ment. By adopting judicious system of re-
ward for labor, almost any amount can be OBJ
tanned. Its proceeds will pay the expense.
I am, with great respect, yours truly,
A. SAxToE,
Brig. Gen. Volunteers.
