Interesting from Alumni.

New YORK, Aug. 10-The Herald cores
pOndent near Atlanta, says operations
around the city have settled down to reg
ular siege. Weare pounding away on eve
ry side, and it is doomed to be soon redu-
ced. The rebels have garrisoned the forts
and entertainments with militia, and use
the veterans to operate where required,
their line running so they can be massed
with great rapidity. Yesterday demon
stration was made along our lines which
resulted in driving the rebels back to their
entrenchments, gaining rifle pits and cap
turing picket reserve of one hundred and
twenty-five men. The rebels cannot con-
tinue long in Atlanta. If they continue
butting against our works, they will soon
wear themselves out without doing us much
hurt, and run the risk of losing commune
cation, upon which we are constantly OPP
Grating. The Macon line is the only one
left them, and it is said we have destroyed
that. If so, we have got them, II they can't
succeed in bursting through ourlines some
where. Yet we are so powerfully intrench-
ed that single line is able to hold our
works against any assault of theirs. The
cleanliness and comfort in our hospitals re-
fleet great credit on the medical gentlemen
in attendance. sf ..at
The Herald's Potomac army correspond
ent of the 9TH says: The efficiency of the
whole command is being constantly in
creased by the return Of convalescents
wounded in the campaign. Heavy artille-
ry firing took place to-day. A portion of a
shell struck Major Chapman, of the Ninth
Massachusetts,, inflicting mortal wound.

Further Particulars of AyeriII's
VictOry--.Hnteresti from Mo-
bile.
New York, Aug. 10.-The Tribune's
special from Harpers Ferry gives the par
ticulars of Averill's victory. Averill at
tackled the combined forces of McCausland,
johnson, Gilmore and Mcneil on the night
of the 7th, and after spirited fight COM
pletely routed their entire command, cap.
turing all their artillery, four pieces, vast
quantity of small arms, four hundred horses
and four hundred and twenty prisoners, i'll
Guiding six field and thirty-two company
officers. McCausland, with his demoralized
command, fled to the mountains. Our loss
was comparatively small seven killed,
twenty-one wounded. Among our killed
was Major Congress and lst Lieut.. Clarke,
Sd Virginia cavalry. They were struck
down while CALAMITY leading a, charge.
Capt. Kerr was severely wounded while
penetrating the enemy's lines. y,
The Tribune's Washington special says: ::
Chief Engineer Latimer arrived this morn
ing from the fleet off Mobile, and reports
that when he left, active preparations were
being made for immediate action by Farra-
gut. He describes Fort Morgan as being
constructed on the Sumter plan, and banked
up, as an additional precaution, with sand
so that the front is considered impregnable;
but being once passed it can readily be re-
duced by an attack from the rear. Farra-
gut having succeeded in passing the fort we
shall doubtless hear of its capitulation or
evacuation in day or two.
Official dispatches from Farragut are ex-
pected tomorrow. 1t was no part of his
plan to attempt the capture of the city, but
only to relieve portion of the large fleet
which has been stationed there for the past
six months. Maury's statement that the
tally disbelieved at the Navy Department.
The vessel was not likely to engage the
fort, and no chance shot could have sunk
her.
The same correspondent says it was gen.,
orally believed in the Army of the Potomac
that Lee has sent Longstreet's corps to
| Hoods assistance
