SAN FRANCISCO, March 10.
In consequence OF the non-arrival of the
steamer from Sonora her depai ture for Pana-
ma is postponed TO Thursday. The Moses
Taylor sails tomorrow via Nicaragua.
Passengers from Mazatlan rennrt that the
opinion prevailed in the best inlokmed circles
there that the French would take possession

the authorities of Sonora were willing the
change should take place, thinking it would
give increased security to mining and CONNER

From Nassau Pirate Retribution in Port
Arrival Of Steamers for the Rebels.
New YoRE March IN

The Herald's correspondent at Nassau, un-
der date of Feb. 2sth, states that the rebel
schooner Retribution arrived in this harbor on
the night OF the 18th inst, and her officers met
at the Royal Victoria Hotel in the evening,
discussing loudly their piratical exploits. 1t
was currently reported and believed that she
brought in here several prisoners from North
ern vessels, recently captuted in these waters,
and was told that the u. S. Consul had sent
polite request to Governor Bayley, on the
10Th, that he would have the matter looked
into, but that up to this date no reply had been
vouchsafed. In the mean time the Retribution
lay at anchor here for several days.
Last evening three fast steamers entered
this port within an hour of each other, viz:
No. 1.-The Georgiana, a brig-rigged IRON
propeller, recently mentioned in the Herald as
having cleared from an English port, and des-
tined as a tender to the piratical ship Alabama.
No. 2.-The Brittania, a side wheel iron
steamer, brig-rigged, and very fast.
No. 3-The iron screw steamer Gertrude, a
brig-rigged vessel, also very fast.
This line feet of steamers viii prove valu-
able addition to the rebel piratical feet and
unless we can send a Baltic or Vanderbilt on
their track. their capture will be next to an
impossibility.

From the South = Alleged Repulse Of the
Federal Fleet at Fort McAllisteY.


New YORK. March TO-
The Richmond Examiner of the 9th inst.
says that up TO last night nothing later had
been received at the War Department from
Fort McAllister. The latest accounts we have
say that the Yankee feet, after terrific bonn
bardment, had retired. and it is thought the
enemy had been again repulsed. At least he
has shown no disposition to renew the attack.
The boinbardment is represented TO have been
terrific.
The fire of the three iron-clads and three
mortar boats were concentrated on the fort at
the same time, and shell and shot literally
rained on the garrison. This is the enemy's
fourth attack on Fort McAllister, and he has
failed, strange TO say. In the contest the fort
Is said to have sustained but little damage and
our loss is said TO be two wounded and one
killed.
1t shows that the Yankee gunboats and
mortars are a humbug.
The Richmond Examiner states that the
Virginia Assembly has transferred all the
troops over 10 the rebel general government
This course Is not received with favor, and the
Examiner says 1t fears few men will be found
on the day of transfer.
A recent report Of the rebel Secretary Of
War says that he apprehends no difficulty in
obtaining sufficiency Of arms and ammuni-
ton, but the question of subsistence Is rather
an alarming one. The haryests of the past
season, he says, have not generally proved
propitious, and Notwithstanding the much
larger breadth of land devoted to the culture
OF cereals and forage, the product In many ex-
tensive districts is below the average.
