FRO1I NEW YORK.

New YORK, Aug, 9.
The Baltimore American of the 9Th inst,
says the excitement is great in that city
among the disloyal residents in view OF
their enrolment Several who had left
have been brought back and lodged in the
Atheneum.
A Hilton Head letter says we have reli-
able information that the two rams in
Charleston Harbor are nearly if not quite
ready for service, and will be used mainly
to protect the harbor and convoy vessels
out and in through the blOckadiug feet.
They are small however, though fOrmid-
able, and can hardly be used TO advantage
or with safety at any great distance from
shore. They have conical revolving tur-
rets, an improvement on the Monitor, and
these turrets are cased with railroad iron.
