From New Orleans.

New YORK, Jan. 31.-rhe Herald's New
Orleans letter of the 23d says:
Previous to Admiral Farragut's arrival In
this city it was reported that he had arrived
off Mobile, with the intention of commence
ing an attack there, and that the garrison
of one of the forts at the entrance of Mobile
Harbor had mutinied, and that force was
sent by the authorities to quell the disturb
ance, and that the mutineers opened upon
them with the guns of the fort, driving
them back with great slaughter.
This rumor probably arose from the fact
that there Is considerable difficulty among
the troops garrisoning Forts Morgan and
Gaines, and that many of the soldiers had
deserted and joined the feet off the entrance
of the haFbor. t-.s
These deserters also report that regi-
ment of cavalry, six hundred strong, sta
toned short distance in the rear of Mobile,
absolutely refused to serve any longer.
also learn that many of the citizens Of Flor
ida, at Pensacola and ON the Peninsula. are
enlisting. In the Union army, and that two
regiments are already forming of white ref
ugees.
A considerable force under an efficient
commander has been sent across Lake Pom
chartrain.
All remains quiet on the Teche and Mis-
sissippi.
A cartel for the exchange of all prisoners
captured by the command of fGen. Dick Tay-
lor, has been agreed upon, and another for
the exchange of those in Texas is under
favorable consideration.
On Tuesday night last the track on the
| Opolousas and New Orleans railroad was
torn up by the rebels near Bayou Bauef.
A train which came down the road a short
time after was thrown from the track, but
no one was injured. Scouts were dispatched
| in search of the parties and succeeded iD
capturing threemen, one "a citizen and the
other two wearing the uniform of rebel
soldiers; the former acknowledged having
assisted the others in tearing up the track.
This man also states that force of the
enemy had come down the bayOus, and
that four regiments were concealed in the
woods.
They intended first to attack Tigerville,
where body of our troops were known to
be, and then move on to the main body at
Bayou Bauef.
The night following, the men Of this
regiment were returning to their quarters,
when they were probably surprised and
taken prisoners by the enemy, as they have
not been heard from since. .-...-.....

RY 2, 1864.


New YORK, Feb. 1.-The Herald's special
from Washington 3lst says: The Secretary
of the Treasury has decided not to issue
any large bonds bearing more than 3
per cent. interest. The law of 81 authOriz-
ing the issue of 6 per cent. two year rates,
empowered the Secretary to Reissue in lieu
thereof more greenbacks for all rates pur-
chased and rendered before maturity. 1t
Is understood that about sixty millions were
redeemed or received for customers before
maturity, and on account of the great
scarcity of five and ten dollar notes for pay
ment of the army, orders have been issued
to the National Bank Note Company to
print this amount of rates Of these denomi-
nations for the use of paymasters.

Convention--Recruiting

New YORK, Feb. IA special to the Trib-
une from Washington 3lst, says: Intelli-
gence of proceedings in the Arkansas Con-
vention having reached the President after
he had received letter from Gen. Steele,
another letter was written not materially
altering but SO differing from the former as
to approve the action Of the Convention.
The opinion is expressed by prominent
officers here, that by allowing those who
have distinguished themselves to make di-
rect appeals to the people, the ranks of the
Union army will be speedily filled and a
large excess of volunteers obtained, and
they confidently hope such plan may be
adopted under a new order for draft of
half million more men.
General Geary says recruiting Is quite as
brisk in Tennessee now as it was in 1861.

has reinforced Mobile. An attack was un-
doubtedly made on Mobile within five days
past.
Persons here have solicited permission to
