From Morris Island.

New YORK, Sep. ia Morris Island
letter to the Herald, dated the 18th says:
Ever since our occupation of Wagner
and Gregg the rebels have been exceedingly
morose and savage They do not allow US
a moments peace, they fire night and day
upon Wagner, but they left US such an ad-
mirably constructed work and so capacious
and safe, bomb proof no one is injured
They fire often enough during the night to
enable us to sleep soundly.
Since Tuesday ten or twelve deserters
have come in from James Island, belonging
to Georgia regiments
They report continued dissatisfaction
among the men and general desire to es-
cape from service which has become dis
agreeable to them. They state that the
rebels are building several new batteries on
Sullivan's Island, above Fort Moultrie and
Battery Bee, to cover the channel. Addi
tional batteries are also being constructed
in the most approved style, between Fort
johnson and the city, on James lsland-on
which they are mounting 10 inch Columbi-
ads and seven inch Brooks rifles.
On the green, at the city, the rebels have
mounted Is inch B akely rife, which they
have just received from Mobile, where it
was brought, with another of the same
calibre, in an Anglo rebel blockade runner,
two weeks ago. The second Of these is in
Charleston, not mounted. 1t was at first
proposed to mount it in Fort johnson, but
that idea was given up, and so far as the de
serters knew, no place had yet been deter
mined where it could be put in position -
Ninety of these monster'projectiles, weigh
ing over 500 each, were lyingby the side of
the gun on Charleston green.
The health of the command is good
The soldiers need fresh vegetables.
Gen. Gilmore has issued general order
giving thirty days furlough to privates who
have distinguished themselves in the re.
cent seige. They are not to exceed 2 pei
cent of the effective force on the Island
and mustbe recommended by their Colonel

KANSAS CITY, Sept l6.-The 9th Kansas,
under Capt. Coleman, came upon Quantrels
camp near Linador on Sept. 9th, killed two
and destroyed quantity of subsistence
stores, capturing Al horses, equipments aad
some teams. The rebels fired one volley,
and fed into the thick underground, when
pursuit was impossible.
The rebels were evidently concentrating
for another raid. The loss of horses and
stores will prove more disastrous than the
killing of the men, as the country is COM
pletely denuded of stock and provisions.

IN THE FOG

We apprehend that our brethren Of the press
are in a dense fog with reference 10 the pur-
poses Of the Government in the matter of the
organization of new troops under the conscrip.
ton law. We come to this conclusion from the
fact that Provost Marshal General Draper has
been directed to continue to discharge only the
duties appertaining to his Office, leaving all
work under the CONSUMPTION law to be per-
formed by a new military organization of loa:l
or State provost marshals, who, 1t seems to be

BRIGHAM YoUSG's ARREsT.-The announce
menta day or two ago that Brigham Young
had been arrested and held to bail ON a charge
of bigamy really amounts to nothing when it
l. considered (as we are informed by a gentle
man familiar with Utah afairs) that the arrest
was oecasioned by tacit understanding be.
tween the Mormon leader and Judge Kinney,
the latter being now, and always having been,
the friend and tool Of the former Brigham
Young could not have been forcibly arrested
in Utah unless the arresting power had been
strongly backed by Federal bayonets. 1t ap-
pears that Judge Kinney has long been con.
considered by the "Geptilesn Of Utah to be in
league with the Mornons in their endeayors
topreyent the working Of the rich mines abound.
ing in the Territory of Utah. Miners, however,
from California and neighboring localities.
FULLY aware Of the immense wealth imbedded
in the Mormon domains, have determined to
commence operations; and this can only be done
viii safety under the protection of the arms OF
the Government.
To get the soldiers out Of the Territory is
the main point now with the MormouS and
such men as Judge Kinney and others who are
their aiders and abettors. In order, therefore,
TO make at least a show of obedience to and
acquieseence in the judicial authority of the
United States, this arrest was no doubt decided
upon and carried ont for effect. Parties familiar
with Utah affairs think more arrests will prob
ably be made, and that the Mormons will even
allow one or two convictions, 1.-THE sentences to
be held in abeyanee;) and thus, by a pretense
OF submission to United States authority, the
Government, they hope, may be induced to
withdraw the troops; and the latter once out,
the hormons imagine they can prevent their
return to the Territory, at least duriag the
present rebellion.
