From Port Royal

The steamship Ericsson arrived from Port Royal, 1st, with 230 bales of cotton and 140 passengers.

The steamer Cosmopolitan had arrived with a Connecticut regiment.

A passenger from Savannah reports 30,000 rebel troops there.

Other news rather meager, and being contraband is not used.
