From Mobile-News to September ii. by
Way Of New Orleans.

Tne new orleans Era says:
ssOur advices from Mobile Bay are to the 18th
inst.-Wednesday last. At that time all was
quiet, and the soldiers were principally en-
ployed in catching fish and eating oysters-not
very laborious duty truly. No movements of
the army or fleet were being made Of which
mention can be made.
''The Monitor Tecumseh is plainly visible in
her watery bed, and preparations are being
is now considered impossible to raise her hull,
as 1t IL supposed, from the rapidity with which
she sunk, that large portion Of her bottom
was torn away by the explosion Of the torpedo
"Fort Gaines, under the rejuyenating touch
OF the Union garrison, is looking very spruce
and neat, In fact sclean as a new PIN" 1t is
not a structure, however, that would stand a
bombardnent Half the weight Of metal which
was thrown into Fort Morgan would complete.
ly destroy it. .-.---
"Fort Morgan is apparently a hope less
wreck. and 1t seems impossible that any conr
siderable portion Of the old works can eve
again be made serviceable.

LATER FROM NEW ORLEANS.
Arrival Of the Fung Shuey-Cortinas no,
at BfOwnsvllle-Nothin from Mobile


Steamship Fung Shuey, ]. r. Hildreth COM
mandinE. from New Orleans Sept. 18th, arrived
at New York yesterday.
The most important intelligence by this ar.
rival is an announcement IN the New Orleans
Picayune, that Brownsville, Texas, has not
been evacuated by the rebels under Col Ford,
as previously stated. The Confederates, it
says, are still there, and In force. The Plea.
JUNE adds, however, that Mexican troops have
crossed to this side of the river before Mata-
moras, and have surrendered to the United
States troops with all their arms. They had
been fve days without ratlons. The statement
is that Cortinas, after driving the French into
Bagdad, returned himself to Matamoras, while
his troops, in a destitute condition, crossed the
river.
We hope that more clear and definite, and if
possible official reports, will reach us soon re-
specting these interesting occurrences.
