The Commercial says Chase left the
city this morning for Washington. What
ever effects may eventually proceed from
bis consultation here, it ID believed nothing
has been accomplished at present, either
in the way of the establishment OF bank
under the new law of Congress- or towards
placing loan upon the market.
Mr.. Gaillardet, writing to the Courier
dos Ens Unis, from Paris, Feb. 18th,
gives the following bit Of political gossip:
There is a rumor in the Bourse to-day of
an instruction in Hungary, correspond
ing with that in Poland. 1t looks improb
able, and what is even less probable, is
the alleged resolutions suddenly taken BY
the Emperor Napoleon TO recall the
French army from Mexico and treat with
Juarsz upon a report by Gen. Forty, re-
cognizing that the popularity Of the Mex
lean President insures his re-elsction BY
universal suffrage. Il Is sddsd that the
Emperor wishes to avoid conflict which
is daily becoming more imminent with
the Northern States through the aid they
offer to Mexicxns the unpleasant rels-
tons between Seward and Mercier, and
the refusal of the Washingtoa Cabinet 70
accept the last propositions Of France.

Cairo, March l6.
Col. A. G. Harding, in command at Fl.
Donelson. telegraphed to Col. Lowe
yesterday, saying that the report that
the rebels we're near is unfounded. Such
is the information here at headquarters
and is no doubt true.
The dispatch boat Wilson arrived this
morning from Helena Saturday. No
boats had come up from Vicksburg for
four days. Our gunboats in the Yaxoo
Pass expedition had passed into Yazoo
river and had captured two or three trans
ports, and that is all that is certainly
known about the expedition.
Very Close restrictions are placed on
mail and passenger communication be.
tween Memphis and Vicksburg. and i,
appears from other evidences that crisis
is fast approaching. Near the latter city
our troops arc now IN good health and
comfortable, and officers and men from
below are buoyant with hope and courage.

VeonsuSUOuS NAokVu AVs
Reports reached here Saturday, appa-
rensly authentic, that Gen. johnson and
others, with 10000 men, insluding .
large proportion Of cavalry and artillery,
had come as far north Is Strasburg on Z
movement towards Winchester. By I'D.
vices received here to-day, however, di-
rect from that point, the story appears to
be entirely unfounded.
A heavy mounted Reconnaissance under
Gen. Milroy has just returned after two
days rapid march. visiting Strasburg and
vicinity without finding the enemy OF
hearing Of their approach in any force
A few Of the enemy's cavalry were found
to be higher up the valley toward Stan
ton. but they retrested upon our advance.
There does not look like any contsmpla-
ted attack by the enemy in that quarter
upon orr large and well posted forces.
Col. Wyndham has received orders to
join his regiment IN the army Of the Po-

New York, March II

A Washington special to the Herald
says there is no doubt that the rebels
will evacuate Vicksburg. if they have
not already. The Federals succeeded in
destroying an important bridge. cutting
off another important communication. -
The rebels will probably retreat to Jack
son, which is strongly fortified. This
will effect Port Hudson and render it's
fall certain.
