The Eau Of Port Hudson.

The Ne,o Orleans Era Of the llth
inst. says: On Wednesday, the 9Th, at 2
o. m., Gen. Gardner, the Rebel Com
mander of Port Hudson, surrendered un-
conditionally to Maj.-Gen. Banks. The
Rebel army was drawn up in line, stacked
arms, and Gen. B anks took possession of
the place Five thousand prisoners, 81
pieces of artillery, and all small arms, &c,
have fallen into our hands.
A dispatch to Tile Era, dated on the
morning of the 8th, from Port Hudson,
says: j.,
"At 2 o'clock parley was sounded
from the fort, and being replied to, In
quiry was made about the news from
Vicksburg. On being assured that it
had fallen, Gen. Gardner promised osur-
render to day. We entered the place at
noon. The glorious event has filed our
army with tho widest enthusiasm"
A subsequent account states that
Gardner sent flag of truce on the 9Th,
asking for terms, and Gen. Banks re-
sponded unconditional surrender" with
twenty -four hours to consider. At I a.m.
on the 9th, Gardner Internationally sur
rendered. The moment the surrender
was completed the Rebels sent a request
for 5000 rations as the garrison had eaten
its last mule THIS was found to be lit
orally true, they had deVoured their last
mule.
The news was brought to New Orleans
by the flagship Tennessee. One hun
dred guns were Immediately fred by Gen,
Emory. The loyal citizens of New Or
leans were to have torchllght process
sion, illumination, and genera joyful
