We are authorized to state that the various
rumors of difficulties between the Army and
Navy at Charleston, or between Gen. Gilmore
and Admiral Dahlgren, are utterly without
foundation, and occasion much chagrin to both
the gentlemen in question. The report OF Ad-
miral Dahlgren being confirmed invalid is
also without foundation. He has had but
slight since his arrival off Charles

months hence the West will desert the

Phillips intimates if the Democracy

New York Mercury says;
"Wo believe that the last army
that the North will ever raise and put
in the field in this war, is now iu the
