Revolt In Fort Morgan.

New York, Feb 2-The correspond
ent of the Boston Journal on board the
gun-boat Jackson, at Ship Island, writes
18th ult., as follows: Last night about
10 o'clock, six mall sail boats came
down the Sound with some very import
tant intelligence The rebels in Fort
Morgan revolted, and during the diff
Guilty, the rebel boats in Mobile Bay at
tempted to arrest the garrison of the
fort The whole fort being in revolt,
with the American flag flying, opened on
the rebel gun-boats with every gun in
the fort. They succeeded in driving
the gun-boats off, but were not on their
guard, and that night large force was
sent down from Mobile, capturing the
whole garrison excepting four men who
escaped in the darkness in a small boat
and came to Ship Island, when we heard
for the first time, the astounding intelli-
genee. Since then we have heard more
of the revolt from some additional de-
serters. Seventy Of the revolters are
condemned to be shot to-day in Mobile.
We also learn from these deserters that
at Horn Inland there are eighteen
more deserters from the rebel army in
and around Mobile, and at Sound In
land, there are are about fifty deserters
from the same quarter. These deserters
bring the important intelligence that the
rebel forces in and around Mobile have
organized secret societies and are deter
mined to fight no longer. 1t is said the
movement, started among the soldiers, is
daily growing stronger, and many Off
GERS are comprised in the movement.
think this is the most important move
meat in the war, and is most significant
in favor of the successful termination OF
this war am confident that this news
is true.

Rebel News.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2-The following
are extracts from Richmond papers:
Two Yankee gunboats assembled the
Hartford county, North Carolina, and
landed 300 men, who burned several
houses and destroyed 10000 barrels of
Government bacon.
Rebel accounts reports several of them
killed by our cavalry while returning to
the boats
The health of A h Stephens was i'm
proving.
Smallpox had made its appearance at
Saulsburg, N c. 1t was abating at
Danville. 1t is also among the Union
prisoners.
Eighteen Yankee prisoners had es-
capped from Richmond.
The Richmond papers have articles
on our Presidential election and the
chances of Mr.. Lincoln and General
Grant, and on the coming Spring cam
paign in Virginia, of which they sup
pose Gen. Grant the author.
The Examiner has an important leader.
Itsays: The time has passed for offensive
military operations on the part OF the
Southern armies beyond recovering lost
portions of territory. The true policy
now is to risk nothing Our means of
subsistence have been too far exhausted
to admit of any other than defensive tao
tics 1t has become with us, now, sim
pie question of endurance. With the
South the duration of the war is simply
question of continued supply of food
for the people and the armies The
South can hold out indefinitely, and at
the eleventh hour she will succeed
The Richmond Congress can bring her
10 subjugation in six months more by
conscripting present producing classes
and thrusting them into naked and I'M
fed army. The great want is food and
clothing. The first duty of the Govern
ment is to provide these supplies and if
they are not provided except by weaken
ing the army, the alternative must be
adopted, of resisting with smaller armies,
using the tactics of Fabius and the STRAIT

announcement may be imagined; we

apprehensions that we are going to have

have been frequently vaccinated, and
have run greater risks than this; but

The river continues to rise slowly, bu

very handsomely, and. as we think, very
wisely, declines to race with the Arma-

tend to their legitimate duties, accom-
modating the travelling and shipping
public, conclusion highly gratifying to
their respective friends. OF course the
Armada is ready to yield the horns as
gracefully as they were delivered over
by the Anderson whenever the latter
boat can take them.
Both boats are exceedingly fast, and
while we may concede that the Ander-
son, on short dash, may be the fastest
boat, on long run, as from here to
Cairo and back, there is scarcely doubt
bat that the Armada would win.

says:
By the arrival of the steamers Diadem
and New Igo, we have late and interest
ing news from below About o'clock
in the afternoon of Saturday, the T. J.
Patton was burned at Walkers Bend.
She took fire accidentally, it is supposed,
from the furnaces. The boat was imme-
diately headed for the shore
The fire spread with great rapidity,
and the tiller rope soon burned off, leav-
ing the boat unmanageable At this
time the flames had made such progress
that the passage way was closed, but the
Captain and pilot, with great presence
of mind, climbed down the back part of
the boat and Selling the tiller, at the
same time giving directions to the engi-
neer, the boat was kept on her course to
the shore. 1t was owing to the courage
and presence of mind of her officers
that no lives were lost The Diadem
came up soon after and brought off the
crew
The Patton was owned by Hart & Co.,
OF this city. The total loss of the boat
with what valuables were on board, will
amount to $4,000 Our townsman,
DR. Dickinson, was on board, and lost
some of his clothing.

The FAIR AND SUPPER. Evansville |
has never witnessed a more pleasant, de-
lighted or fashionable assemblage than
that which congregated at Masonic Hall
last night, to participate in the festivities
of the grand Fair and Supper prepared
by the ladies of the E piscopal congrega
ton of this city. The preparations were
made on the most liberal scale, and with
great splendor. The arrangement of ar
tieles on sale was exceedingly fine, and
the articles very attractive. The refresh
ments comprised all the delicacies the
country affords, and the winning smiles
of the fair and elegant ladies who pre-
sided at the sale of goods, and waited on
the tables, almost compelled man to
buy and to eat Indeed, it was gener-
al remark that such an elegant corps of
shspkeepers, or dining room girls"
had never before been seen in any city
on the continent.
One of the most attractive sale tables
was attended by hlrs. DIR. Walker, who
is ever foremost in every work of faith
or labor of love, assisted by Miss Dan
els and others. Another was managed
by Miss Hooker, Mrs Laughlin, and
others, whose vivacity and persuasive
eloquence would have drawn greenbacks
even from the pockets of misers
Mrs. George Fish presided at very
attractive table, and was wonderfully
successful in the disposal of her wares
Miss Jennie Griffith, Miss Bell, and
Mrs. Gwathmay, with other fair assist
ants, presided with equal success at other
tables st the refreshment tables might
be seen Mrs. Yiele Mrs Bement, Mrs.
Babcock, and numerous others of the
most elegant ladies of the city, attired in
their snow white aprons, helping to ice
cream, cake, oysters, and other deli
cious comestibles with a most fascinating
ease and elegance.
One of the most attractive features o
the Fair was the side show" under th,
management of Miss Mary " Babcocl
and Miss Madeline Harvey. This wa
