FACTS AGAINST FANCY.--The Rebels have
been boastin OF the number Of vessels which
have run the blockade, and even Mr.. Mason
put the number as high as four hundred. The
rerort CT the Rebel Secretary of the Treasury
shows the falsity OF these boasts, for he puts
the whole Custom House duties for ten months
tnGing i'm December last at $66i,556. The COM
rntrce that yields tut O little more than half
