Hon. EDWIN NJ. STANTON. Sscye'arV Of WGr;
The following appears in The RiehmoAd Dispdtea
of the 2Sh inst: The fearful state of suspense in
which this city has existed for two three days hap
at last ended. New Orleans is in possession Of the
enemy. 1t was evacuated by Gen. Lowell, who has
removed bis forces TO Camp Moore, On the Jackfon

Wright, 2Sth inst. says;
From deserters learn that NewOrleans is now
in Capt Porer's quiet possession. TIE Union hee'
passed Fort jackson on Thursday, after "a desperate
naval engagement, in which one vessel was sunk
and several badly damaged. 1t Is supposed that the
Union loss is very heavy.
The Rebel loss was 60 killed aud lSi wounded.
The engagement lsstedpa part Of tv lays. The Naion-
lists took possession Of the city without struggle o.

stroyng all the steamers which they had no use or

returned. The only casualties on our aide were
First Sergeant Richardson Of Company ID, Seconc
Indiana Cavalry, killed. and private OF the same
regiment and lieutenant in the Eleventh Illinois
slightly wounded Half-a-dozen OF our hor;es were
also disabled Sergeant Richardson was man oi
unusual intelligence and good standing at home, who
hai el'isted from purely patriotic motives. The
whole regiment deeply regrets bis loss. For some
unexplained reason, bis body was abandoned to the
enemy.
The sanitary condition of the army is anything
but encouraging. TLe damp campiug-gOunds and
bad water are productive Of camp-fever aud dysen-
terry One-third of the armv suffer from the latter;
and il no improvement takes plas the reduction Of

nearly week. presenting horrible sight and hlling
the atmosphere with an intoerable stencil. The
available portion Of the plunder abandoned BY the
Rebels in their hasty retreat was also being hauIeo
of, including dozen cassons.
None Of the reports Of division commanders, sx'
cepting Gen. Sherman have as yet reached either
Gen. Buell's or Gen. Grants headqusrteS In Gen.
Grants command, especially, great trouble b exps'
rienced in making up correct returns Of the casual
ties.
For sone days rumors have been circulating
through the camps Of Gen. Buells divisions thas
Gen. Grant had been placed under arrest for the
mismanagement that resulted in the disaster Of tho
9th. They were officially contradicted on the day
before yesterday by General Order from Gen. Hal
leck, announcing that Generals Buell. and Grant
would continue in command of their respective
armies In the same Order the troops are congratu-
lated upon the success Of the Union arms on tho 7h,
but admonished at the me time of the necessity Of
observing greater order and discipline. This 10
complained of as an unjust reflection upon Gen.
Buels men, whose conduct was certainly all that
could be expected. The censure was undoubtedly
intended only for Gen. Grants sampeders, but tho
distinction should have been made

Tho loss in Buells Divisions will appear small
when compared with thtt 81 Gen. GRANTS but 1t
must be remembered tba several Of tue latter were
exposed TO the enemyi fre for two days, While the
former participated o..y in ho action OF Monday.
The proportion Of the killed to tho wounded 10 ceT-
tainly remarkable, the latter being almost eight
times tie pumber OF the former. About fifty OF the
wounded viii probably die. The small numbers OF
missing furnishes excellent proof OF the good order
preserved during the battle in the three divisions
Most of the missing were, beyond doubt, among the
killed and buried by paties unable recognize them'
