Lieut.. Geo. Wyman, of the johnson

ierdly, informs Us that on Monday last,
as the Federal gunboats, with their trans
ports, passed Gulf Bluff, the transports
were fired upon by a field battery and
considerably injured. This incensed the
Federals so much that they shelled thu
town, and In the evening turned loose
about fifteen hundred men to pIllage the
place, which they thoroughly accomplish
ed They broke open every store and
dwelling in the place, carrying off what
goods they wanted, and wantonly destroy
ing everything they could not carry off.
In the dwellings they broke up all the
furniture, china and dglassware--destroyed
the clothing aud injured the houses as
much as they could. They killed all the
stock in the place and carried off all they
wanted, leaving the balance where it was
shot down OF the poultry they made
clean sweep, not chicken left to crow
next morning.
They told the people at Grand Gulf
that they were going to serve Rodney and
Natchez in the same way. Firing was
heard at Rodney after they left Grand
Gulf, 90 we suppose it has also been des,
trOyed. They told the people at Grand

From New ORLEANs.-The Jackson

From NEW ORLEANS. The Jackson
Mississippian of the 26;h says:
We learn from a gentleman who left
New Orleans last Tuesday evening, that
the foreign consuls have protested against
Buffers proclamation in regard to the
suppression Of the Confederate currency.
and also that tie crawfshing Yankes
will revoke it or materially notify its
purport The consuls say that many sub
jects Of their governments are innocent
holders of the Confederate notes, aud that
they must be paid BY one government or
the other.
Ii is further stated that the English and
French who owned cotton in New Orleans
destroyed by the rebels, are making out
their bills against the United States for
their loss. England not having recoguiz.
ed the Southern Confederacy, and the
United States ignoring its existence, it is
said that the governments Of France and
England recognize the validity of these
claims and will enforce their adjustment.
It will be hard on the Yankees to lose the
cotton which they so much coveted aud
then be compelled to pay for it.

made by it amount to about forty million dol
