NEWS OF THE DAY.
THE WAR.

We last night received Richmond papers to the
9th inst. The Eromiaer has two notable edito-
rials-one in reference to peace runors and the
stories told at Richmond of Reorganization in the
North. These rumors cay that Northern finances
are in inextrieable confusion; Gov Seymour is as
good Souhemer as .Toombs; New.York City
wants JEFF. Davis for its President; that Wall and
Parker of New-Jersey are in accord with Mcclellan,
who medtates fearful schemes against the Adolf
tonists; that the Northwest is ripe for revolution
the armies going TO mutiny soon as they get their
pay, &c. The editor opposes to sll these bright
visions the fact that the fall Of Arkansas Post is a
terrible blow, putting heavy balance Of prisoners
on the Union side and deranging Daviss nice plan
of hanging officers; that Arkansas is open TO the
Union arms; that Bragg's army is oyerworked
while Rosecr.ns is heavily reanforccd that there IL
trouble aud danger on the seaboard, and gloomy
view all around. The Confederate Congress is dis
cussing plans for peace; if they could get nd OF
w.England all would work smoothly. The Cou-
fs6eracy had outstanding on the 3lst ult. $40 49,
o. in Treasury Notes and $li5, 259,7'O in stocks
aud bonds.
The arrest Of the proprietor Of Tie Philadelphia
Journal has created great excitement in Pennsy
yania. Judge Ludlow, OF the Philadelphia Quarter
Sessions, has requested the Grand Jury 10 stop all
oher business, inquire into the facts, aud report 10
the Court. In the Legislative Senate resolutions
were offered authorizing the Governor 10 go to
Washington aud demand his release. They were
referred 10 the Committee on Federal Relations. An
effort to take the matter out Of the Committees
hands was unsuccessful. 1t is alleged that the imme-
diats cause of the arrest the publication Of e
loug editorial article on the Message OF jeff Davis,
rraisDg it as Trustworthy truthful, and noble; ard
in these respects contrasting Davis with Presi-
dent Lincoln, the latter being in this connection
made the subject of gross and foul personal abuse.
AS some offset 10 the unwecome news of depre-
da,ols by the new pirate Florida, note the cap
ture ON the 10th inst. of the British steamship Rsing
Dawn, with valuable cargo, while trying TO got
into Charleston. She was from that Malignant pest
Aole Nassau, n. p a place where the entire popn-
iaton seem to be doing their little utmost to aid the
Rebels. Nassau y. p, viii be remembered. Be-
side this capture, we have news of the burning Of
the Rebel steamer Huntress while trying to evade
our blockade and ALEC the taking Of schooner laden
with cotton.
"A dispatch from Cairo says that Gen. McCer.
nands forces have landed on the Louisiana side Of
the Mississippi, two miles below the mouth of the
Yazoo, and in full view of VicksLurg. Two bIigades
were engaged in opening the "cu,-of' which is 10
make Vicksburg 10 longer port Of entry. The
river is now bank full at Vicksburg. Gen. Grant
left Mempsis on Tuesday for below, with one divii-
ion.
We have dates from New-Oreans to the Goth
;nst. There no news Of importance save the
escape OF the Rebel privateer from Mobile else
where noticed. Further particulars Of the smart
engagement at Bayou Leche given, ard some
account Of great Union meeting in New-0rleans,
al which Gen. Hamilton was . speaker,
Dispatches from Washington gay that there is
the best authority for saying that the statement that
the Emperor Of the French has made renewed pro-
posa Of mediation to the British Government, since
tie battle of Fredericksburg, is entirely without
truth.
Reid Sanders, son Of George Sanders recently !
captured while attempting TO escape with Rebel dis
patches for Europe, arrived here Yesterday and was
sept to Fort Lafayette.
- nm Newbe:n correspondent sends us an inter.
estipe lstte, concerning an exciting guerrilla hunt
iU that region.
BY letters received late last night we have very
recent news from Port Royal. There is every
prospect of stirring events there before many days
have passed over.
