New YORK, Sept. IA.
Charleston, is. CT papers of the lst inst,
mention an explosion OF a mammoth Yankee
torpedo near the southwest angle of Fort
Sumter. 1t exploded too far from the fort to
do material damage, although it shook the
structure heavily.
The rebel powder works at Augusta, Ga,
exploded lately, Destroying 10000 pounds of
powder and killing nine operators.
The Charleston Courier is pleased at the
unity OF sentiment in the rebellious States
against any reception OF oyertures for peace.
The authorities of Charleston have been
very much annoyed by unknown persons mys-
teriously sending up rockets from that city
and a suburban locality.
All foreigners in Savannah who do not or

Washington Correspondent.

NEW YORK, Sept. IA.
The Posts Washington dispatch says that
the rebels are feeling our lines slightly, but
have made no general attack on Grant.
Gen. Grant has ordered all civilians refus-
ing TO take the oath, to be sent through the
lines to the rebels.
The Commercials dispatch says, officers
who left Grants headquarters yesterday re-
port that nothing is going on except occasion
al Smelling and picket assaults.
The recent orders of the War Department
against subordinates giving information, is
carried to the extreme of Withholding the
dates OF deceased soldiers, thus keeping back
the payment OF insurance money.

INC IIt0tf tuPttIt : SIFeNVfh or The
Rebel Armgl
New YORK, Sept. IA.
A gentleman who left Richmond on the 9Th,
informs the Herald that the condition OF the
rebels in that city must certainly be distress
ing, owing TO the scarcity of provisions.
He also says water communication via James
River is unobstructed, except by single line
OF torpedoes opposite Drury's Bluff, and a
couple of iron clads heavily armed.
The whole rebel army is less than 100000
including guerrillas, and Lee has under his d.
recton about $4,000. OF that number the
ranks are filed up with old men sixty years Of
age and boys Of fifteen. and the army is toe
feeble either to attack Grant or hold together
much longer.
