Who shall not contend that Ignorance

happened yesterday 81 the Florence
House Mr.. o. W. Bradley, proprietor,
was locking over his funds, and Incl
dentallY showed few friends froM the

$40 bonds. One Of these bonds was q
$500, four were $780, and one . $50
making aE aggregate Of $3.50. The gen
tleE.en from the country passed them
about admiring their artistic finish, and
most Of them were laid back upon the
counter. Some Of the party left, and
directly Mr.. Bradley found himself
short the $500 bond, coupons and sll.
The police took up the case, and Brad
ley tslegrsphed to the gentleman Of whom
be bought the notes, requesting the nun
Der of the missing one. Matters looked
mixed, and IS the day wore on, Mr..
Bradley looked blue. While the excite
ment was at its high, man named
Barker, also from the country, rejoined
his comrades and was informed Of the
loss. "DO you mean them things you
were showing as this afternoon q Mr..
Dafker was informed bu8b those were
the things." Mr.. Barker explained
substantially as follows: "Well, guess

In common with the rest Of the party
he did not know its value, having never

party that runs on 3 boat somewhere,
said afterwards that when looking at the

tack it up in his cabin, but that Mr..
Bradley had laid them back Of tho cOUn-

rDAY; FEBRUARY 5, 1864.
Reported sIuinv near mobIIe.

Reported mutinF near Mobile.
A correspondent of the Boston Journal,
on board the gunboat Jackson at Ship
Island, writes as follows on the 18th ult:
LAST night about 10 o'clock, 3 small
sail.bOat came down bound with some
verv important intelligence. The rebels
in Fort Morgan revolted, and during the
difficulty the rebel boats in Mobile Bay
attempted arrest the garrison Of the fort
the whole fort being in revolt, and with
the American flag firing they opened on
the rebel gunboats with 3 Ewing gun.
They succeeded in driving tie gunbOats
of, but not being on their guard largo
force was drawn from Mobile, capturing
the whole garrison except four men, who
escaped in darkness in . small boat and
came TO Ship Island. Since then we
heard more of the revolt from some other
deserters. Seventy of the revolters are
condemned to be shot to-day in Mobile.
We also learn from these deserters that
at Horn Island, up the sound, Is more
deserters arrived from TIE vicinity of
Mobile and Round Island. These de-
sertsrs bring the very important intelli-
gence that the rebel forces in and around
Mobile have organized secret societies
determined to ight no longer. It is stated
that the movement started among the
soldiers is daily growing stronger, and
many officers are comprised in it. think
this the most important movement of the
war am confident the news is true.
We are acquainted with the Gulf cor
respondent of the Journal, and know him
10 be E reliable man, 30 far as the facts
he narrates are concerned. That the
statements given above, we have no
doubt, were received from deserters, as
recorded; but whether bis final conclusions
are true, or not, of course none can, at
this time, say. Rebel kilograms have re-
ferred to disturbance" at Fort Nor
gan, but they refrain from given particu-
lars.
or the discomfort in the ranks, we have
had sufficient evidence to satisfy any
one; we were not prepared, however for
the organized resistance to the Richmond
authorities spoken of above; but it is to be
sincerely hoped that such is the case.
Our forces are preparing for an attack
upon Mobile IS the rebels are now full
ly aware of this, it is unnecessary for US
TO longer keep silent. The latest intel
ligence from New Orleans is to the effect
that troops are being hurried across the
lake to jacksonville, which is to be the
starting point Ofone of the three expedi-
ticns fitting out against the doomed city.
The iron clsds in addition will not be
idle; aud the result Of the siege will be
decided evidence as to whether the mas
ses of the rebel army have determined 70
lay down their arms, or no. The pace
will be taken under any circumstances (;
but viii the surrender be a tame one, or
will the rebel flag only be lowered after
long and bloody siege
