From Mobile Rebel News.

FORTRESS MONROE, Oct. PA lady,
the wife of an officer in the Southern ar
my, recently arrived at Norfolk, says she
came from Mobile, Ala, and reports that
the city was threatened by the Federal
troops, who were near enough when she
left to watch the movements of the rebel
garrison, and the inhabitants were begin
ming to think that the city would soon fall
into our hands, as there we're few ayaila-
Bile troops there and they were resorting
to deceptive measures to keep up the ap-
pearance of larger force than they real
" had. Even the women dressed up in
mems clothes and paraded in the outskirts
Of the city as soldiers; and should the
city be attacked no resistance could be
made by the present force.
We make the following extracts from
the Richmond Sentinel, of Oct. %:
The people of Richmond decided yes
terday, by vote of 867 to 296, that they
deem it inadyisable to place any restric-
tions upon the price of food; and that
the Virginia Senate decided that there
should be none. The proposition is now
dead. We submit to this decision with
cheerfulness. tt is thought, We believe
to be great mistake.
An order has been received from the
War Department to General Winder. in.
structing him to deliver to the Fedora
Prisoners all the gold sent to them BY
their friends in the Northern States
as he may receive it, but to withhold from
them all United States Treasury notes, al
the Confederate Government recognizes
no such money and give them an equiva
lent in Southern Scrip. 80 Tf
It is stated that some who have pu
substitutes. into the army while they stait
at home to make money, are alarmed a
the prospect of the repeal of the sussti
tute law, and having made the wherewith
al to travel are trying to run away to Eu
rope. z.9.5s

WEDNESDAY, May 1S-6 p. N.
There b no check to the excitement and speeu-
Ation IN stocks On the contrary, the circle OF
npsculators rs steadily increasing, and the large
proats already realized by buyers enable and en-
seurage them TO extend their ventures. Thus iar
every one who has bought stocks has made money
and there is not the least indication anywhere tha'
the end Is yet near. The excitement at preseh. Is
chiefly on Erie, which sold before the poaro .ne
morning at 95, at the first board ~ 711+
and %, at one p. NJ. at 931I, in the afternoon d.
nlL, "a and "a, and closed at five r. NJ AZ ABOUT
oAL Erie ia one of the few remaining stocks
vbich are earning a large dividend and are still
Ne,ow mar. Central, Hudson River, guaranteed,
Harlem preferred, Galena, Toledo, Pacific Mail,
Illinois Central, Michigan Central and Reading,
which used TO range near Erie, are now all at q
premiun OF the stocks which are certain, or
pretty certain, to pay dividend in July, there are
but three-Erie, Pittsburg and Chicago and Alton
which can be bought below par. Hence the re-
cent increase of speculation in the stock. At the
morning board to-day the movement, as usual IN 80
excited market, was irregular Pittsburg, which
sold at l0l before the board, fell on two per
cent; Southern old declined % and Rock
Island, Gaena and Toledo were not as
strong as last evening. On the other hand,
Northwestern rose 8 and Mississippi and Missouri
8. The common stock of the latter road is thus
within 23 per cent of the first mortgage land grant
bonds. 1t is rumored that its recent advance is
due to operations connected with the Pacific Rail-
road. Governments were steady this morning.
At the one p M. call the buoyancy was renewed,
and there was an eager inquiry for stocks. Pitts
burg, of which the lower board is supposed to be
very short, rose q per cent. In the afternoon
the market was very buoyant indeed; the COM
mission houses appeared to have orders for every
thing. Canton rose per cent, Northwestern z,
Toledo "a, Illinois Central l, Reading 2H, South
ern old "A, guaranteed a. The excitement on Erie
was very great indeed, and the price was per
cent higher than at the public board. The busi-
ness at the advance was enormous. AT the four
p. N. call the features Of the market were un-
changed. Every one wanted to buy. The follow
