The surrender Of the Rorrs.

From the New Orleans Delta, lstl
The circumstances which led to the surrender
of Fort Jackson, after its gallant defense, are
most melancholy and Notifying. We can well
appreciate and sympathize with the feeling of
indignation and disgust with which the senior
officers refer to those circumstances. The first
of these causes of our defeat was the want Of
command, organization and energy in our squad
ron. The commanders refusedO or failed to watch
and defend the chains and other distinctions
below the forts they would rot, even under the
protection Of the guns of the fort, perform this
duty, and the enemy actually succeeded in cut
ting away these instructions, which they could
not have done if the gunboats had taken the
places they were directed to take in order to
guard the chains. The Louisiana, with its pow
eriul battery, was rendered of no use by the
refusal of the commander in charge of her to
Mace her in a position where she might have
been effective, and where she would have mate.
rally aided the forts, and, in the opinion of
experienced officers in the forts, would have
prevented the passage Of the United States ships.
The next delinquency of the gunboats was in
falling to keep the river lighted. As long as this
duty was conided to the fort it was promptly
and regularly done, but when the ships under
took it. it was grossly neglected.
On the night Thursday when the enemy eE
fected his massage, it was entirely omitted, though
Il was perceived by the ~cOmmandsnt Of Fort
Jackson that the enemy were preparing to force
a massage. There was no light by which the
ships could be seen until they were near the fort,
and the smoke from the first discharge Of the gJns
of the fort obscured the view so that little time
was allowed to play upon them There was
from the beginning a lamentable want OF sys-
tenn, organization and discipline in the squad
ron, which, under proper command, it is believed
might have been arrested by our squadron alone,

should want him to be Mayor, be fears that he is too
poor to refuse an Office for which he is admirably fitted

Condition Of Affairs Mt Rev Orleans
We take the following from the Delta OF Il
Lot Instant

We take the following Iom IHS Do''" % u'
LIST instant:
For the information of our country readers and
/ oUr absent citizens. il may be well to state that
the telegraph offices have been closed for several
days 10 all general business, and we believe are
now closed entirely
The post office remains open. bat is guarded
by marines from the United States fleet. Nc
mails. however, from the North via the Jackson
railroad have arrived since Friday last. We uu-
derstand they have been stopped at some station
on the railroad by competent authority. We
trust that some arrangement may be made by
which our people may be enabled to keen up
communication with their absent friends. The
trains on the Jackson road have ceased to run
with any regularity. but we are informed those
on the OpelOusas road run as before. The river
travel and business are entirely stopped. With
these exceptions locomotion goes on as it always
So far Commander Farragut has not in
terlered with the liberties of any of our citizens.
and the only United States troops to be seen in
DOR streets are the few marines guarding the Gus
tom house. The land forces are understood to
be on the way up the river under command of
Gen. b. 7 Butler, and may be looked for at any
moment.
Our streets arc remarkably quiet. Most of
the stores have been closed since Friday last,
and remain closed, with 2 few exceptions The
lOtelS are closed. ana There * some
difficulty among those who have been in the
habit of making these establishments their
homes in effecting other arrangements. The
bar-rooms have ali been closed since Friday
last. For some days there was great difficulty
in passing the miserable currency we are cursed
with, but, thanks to the judicious measures
taken by the authorities, confidence in is has
been partially restored. The markets are still
very mesgerly furnished, and, to provide rpgu
lar supplies of food for this large population,
will require al the wisdom of those who have
our welfare in their keeping, for the ordinary
between the city and country must,
to a considerable extent, continue broken up.
Still we do not think our people VIII advantage
themselves by leaving the city with their fami-
lies. They VIII find more comforts here than
they can possibly find in the country, and we
have not been surprised that many of cur citi-
zens who had left have returned. Those who
serving in the army will, of course, make
their way to some point where they can strike
. blow for their loved home. The mayor and
council have not abdicatcd their functions, but
continue their exercise until superseded by
the military power which is about to come into
our midst This they intend doing in the in
of their constituents.

Flag-Ohicer West. Gulf Blockading Squadron.
The United States flag was hoisted over the
custom house and the mint. and the Louisiana
banner hauled down by the Federals from the
TOP of the City Hall; but the old flag does not
yet wave over the municipal building. In his
last interview with Capt. Baily, Mr. Monroe had
stated most emphaticslly that there was not q
single man in the city who would not die rather
than lower the State flag. The crowd around
the City Hall was immense. but it made no signs
OF Indignation, thanks, perhaps, to Mr.. SOule,
who addressed them, and eZhOTted them to sub
nit with quiet dignity to the doom they could
not avoid. During the day there was an angry
gathering opposite the custom house, where a
picket of Federals were stationed on the private
office Of the postmaster, ready to fire on those
who might attempt to insult THEN flag.
Late in the afternoon the Federals, knowing
very well that they were not strong enough to
protect their colors during the night, lowered
them and retired on board their steamers. They
VIII probably come back this morning.
Most of the respectable citizens of the place
fearing, not without a show OF cause, that many
