The HeraltTs Mobile correspondent, under
date Of the 4th, says: There is no probabi-
ty of an immediate movement on Mobile. The
sunken rebel iron-clad Baltic still eflectually
blockades tho main channel across Dog river
bar, but the 1Tinnebago, double turretted
monitor, has found its way through the Oh.
structions to point nearly opposite Mobile
and can drop l l and Is inch shells into the
city at.will. Metacomet, Scbago and Kenne-
beck have also reached the same place and are
in line Of battle, ready to shell the city at
signal from Farragut. Mobile is entirely a.
our mercy. The distance from the Vessels
mentioned above to Mobile is abont 81 miles.
Their largest rifed guns can throw shells into
the remotest suburbs. The rebel rams and
gunboats arc in plain sight. but do not offer
the slightest demonstration of hostility. They
arc the rams alabama, Tuscaloosa, and gun.
boat Morgan, and another ram, name I'M
known. The gunboat j. p Jackson has sue.
ceeded in capturing the largest Of the three
launches that have been lowering around with
the object Of attacking the Setonia.
Changers troops have constructed splen-
did Notifications at Cedar Point ard other
places. II Hoods whole army should rein
force Mobile and attack our positions. i: could
be easily kept at bay with the assistance Of
gunboats.

Ne,c York, Sept. 19.-The Worlds army
Potomac correspondent of the 18th. gives the
following account Of tho rebel capture OF our
cattle: .s.o -.
In the rear, portion of our line picketed,
BY the first District Of Columbia Cavalry
was a large field in which there was about
5000 very fine bseves. As the enemy had
been constantly throwing scouts through tho
country thereabouts, they probably learned
this fact and resolved to possess our treasure.
Accordingly daylight yesterday morning ~.
vcalsd them approaching. close in front ot
of tho first District of Columbia Regiment,
in two strong lines Of battle. the first com
manded by VIM. H. Lee. the second being
Hampton's legion, the aggregate reaching
probably 5000, quickly breaking the front OF
our pickcts. the enemy drove of the entiFs
