ARRIVAL OF ESCAPED NEGROES FROM SAvXN-

ARRIVAL OF ESCAPED NEGROES FROM SAvGN-
NAu.-On Sunday night last at II O'Clock, eight
negro slaves, six men and two women. taking ad-
vantage of the excitement prevalent in Savannah
on account of the capture of the .Alaata, escaped
f. ON that city in row-boat. They got down to
Ossabaw safely, went from thore to Ogeechee, and
from thence were sent here, arriving Monday night.
They report that the rebels were much disappoint-
cd and disgusted at the capture of the Atlanta,
and that various speculatlons were aaoat as to the
cause of the disaster. Some think the crew mu-
tinted, and run the ram ashore Oh purpose while
few attribute the capture to the accuracy and
terrific effect of the Wechauken's shots. The
steamer Georgia, built oflivc oak, is to be IRON
plated, but the plates are not put on, and she is
not nearly finished. The celebrated floating bat
terry, built of railroad iron is acknowledged by the
rebels to be failure. 1t is stationed down the
river near the distractions. These negroes show
superior intelligence, even for ''inteigent contra
hands," and seem to be well posted about matters
at Savannah.

MATTERS AT FOLLY IsLAND.-There has been no
firing between the forces on Folly and Morris
Islands for some days. Parties from each side
frequently visit the stranded blockade runner,
Ruby and there have been several collisions,
where two parties have met, but our troops have
usually been victorious. We have taken from the
steamer, among other articles, about 2O00 yards of
fine shirting, which have been sent to the hospital
department, and large quantity of haf-mourning
calico. Our troops are in fine spirits, and would
rather relish few more shells if the rebels have
any to spare.
