A rebel journal says:

a rebel journal says:
A sufferer by the Oombachee raid sums
up his sorrows in the following sentence:
4" What contributed most TO my mortif-
cation was, that in my whole gang Of
slaves, among whom there were n
amount of Aarous, Abrshams, Isasos,
and Jacoba, there was not one Abdiel--
not one remained loyal 10 the rebels"
This is the complaint of hundreds and
thousands of other sufferers. The most
petted, trusted, and seemingly devoted
slaves are found wanting in the hour of
trial.
Whereat this rebel paper says that the
negro is an ungFateful, worthless being,
and consequently ht for slavery only.
Very logical.

by q random shot from Hawkins Zou-
ayes. Recognizing his old comrades,
with whom he had so often ranged
himself in line of battle, he hailed them
with cheers but observing the rioutous

entity, the Zouayes fired, with tho result

The Appeal says editorially /:

A report from chattanooga mentions a
rumor that a Union cavalry force had
crossed the Tennessee below Huntsville
a few days since. We are informed by
a citizen, who reports he saw the force,
that it crossed at Whiteeburg, and was
composed of infantry, with the usual
force of artillery-the whole numbering
about 10000 men. If this be correct, il
would seem to be indicative of a pur-
pose to permanently occupy any point to
which they might advance.
AFFAIRS IN NORTH ALABAMA.-The
Huntsville Confederate, now published
at Chattanooga, has intelligence from
Huntsville as late as the 18th. On the
18th, Capt. Frank Gurley, of the 4th
Alabama Cavalry, was on his way from
May sville to Huntsville, and met several
members of his company, who had Just
left Huntsville TO escape the enemy, who
entered that place about three O'clock
Monday morning, surprising some sold
iers and citizens who contemplated leav-
ing tkere.
The first installment of Federals was
said to consist of 1000 cavalry and 5000
infantry but on Wednesday last, when
Captain Gurley left his home in Msdi-
son county, about seventeen miles this
side Of Huntsville, he had information
believed to be reliable, that the number
At Huntsville comprised two brigades of
cavalry and two of infantry besides ar
tillery companies, with twelve pieces Of
ordnance. The Federals said hat they
numbered 1900. Sergeant Campbell,
of Captain GurIey's company, left Mkdi-
son county on Friday last, and reported
to Captain Gurley that another body
number not known-had encamped At
Rock Spring, about twenty miles north
of huntsville, toward Winchester.

FROM PORT ROYAL.

New YORK, Feb. 1O.-The Port Royal
correspondent of the Times says the attack
by the Montauk and gunboats Seneca,
Wissahickon and Dawn, assisted by the
mortar Steamer G P. Williams, upon Fort
McAllister, Ogeechee River, Georgia, was
resumed on Sunday morning, but l have
not been able to ascertain that much pro-
gress was made in reducing the fortified
tons. Under the guidance of a negro
pilot, who had escaped from the Nashville.
the MOntauk was taken early in the morn
ing to point within six hundred yards of
the battery, and commencing work at
once, continued the bombardment until 70
o'clock P. NJ, when the rebel fire compelled
her to retire.
She was unable to breach the work, in
consequence of the immense thickness of
the embankment-nearly so feet. The
Montauk was struck 46 times, and reoeiv-
ed no other damage than the starting of
six bolts in the pilOt-house by rife shot,
and SCATTERING her smoke stack.
OOther vessels took positions at long
range, and kept up steady fire until sig
nailed by Capt. Worden to cease. Tho
Seneca and Mortar each received one shot
from a battery, but neither vessels nor
men were injured.
In view of more important service re-
quiring the Montauk, I should not be sur
prised if the attack on Fort McAllester, for
the present, should be relinquished.

SECOND DISPATCH.
WASHINGTON, February 10.
A portion of Col. Bakers detective
corps seized 1888 cases of boots and shoes,
in transit across the Potomac from Leon
ardtown, designed for the South. The
goods and smugglers were sent to Wash
ington under guard
From what is said here in well informed
circles, Capt Worden's object in proceed
ing to Fort McAllister with the Montauk
was not to reduce that work, but merely
to test the effect of the shot upon the tur-
ret of his vessel; and upon which the
rebel steel-pointed shot had no injurious
effect. His proceeding to that quarter to
demolish the work, &C., was not specified
in the original programme.
