The stern reality of the calamity which has be fallen the fishing interest of this town in consequence of the late disastrous gales begins now to he more clearly under. stood. Yesterday diem= four steam tugs—the Andrew Woodhouse, the Pioneer, the Volunteer, and the Sailor— left the harbour with the sole object of cruising about in search of the missing smacks. They steamed off land a dis taste of between sixty and seventy miles, and three of them returned to-day without having fallen in with any of the beats ; the remaining tug, the Volunteer, had not arrived when our parcel was despatched. The masters of the tugs state that they encountered very heavy weather and • tremendous sea, which rendered it a matter of extreme difficulty to proceed. Last evening the smack 111 Try was towed into the harbour, having lost two of her crew, and intelligence was received that the smack Bessie had put into Nieu Dieppe with the lam of three hands. The Excelsior, the Enterprise, the Chanotmt, the Admiral, the Yarborough, and • few other smuts also came in, some with the crews of other boats which had been lost on board. There are still about sixteen boats and their crews unaccounted for, and for • large pro portion of these but little hope is entertained, m more than • week has now elapsed since the gale. Between thirty and forty fishes rasa are already known to have been drowned, and it la feared that whets the full partkulars have been ob tained the loss of life will be found to exceed that sustained during the memorable gale of May, 1860. The lone of fish ing boat., as far as it ha. now bees aecertaioed, is already in excess of that period. Each smack carries an average of sieves hands. and it is estimated that there are still 115 fishermen with respect to whose fate the utmost uncertainty exists. This moroing Xt. fibuckford, °sea the principal fish. I merchants sod smackowners in Yarmouth, despatched three of his best smacks, with order* to cruise about off the land and on the fishing ground with • view of rendering aid or obtaining some definite intelligence of the missing boats. Some hope is still expressed that many of the smacks may piths heard otas the wind has been sines the hurricane blow log off the shore, thus rendering it almost impossible for disabled vessels and boats without assistance to fetch the English coast. The herring voyage has not yet terminated, but since the late disaster the fishermen evince a great re pugnance to leave the harbour in further quest of fish, the present appearance of the weather being anything but re. amazing.

On Friday Meade formed hie line of battle north and south, his right resting on the Rapidan, facing towards Orange Court-house. Heavy skirmishing occurred along the whole line. French's corps engaged Ewell's corps, the Federal losing heavily, but holding their position,and cap turing a large numbar of prisoners. During Friday Lee retired a short distance.

General Grant bas abandoned the further pro secution of the campaign against Bragg for this winter. 3feade is reported to bare fallen back to Fredericksburg, finding Lee's position too strong for assault. • Nothing decisive is known . conoerning the result of Longstreet's siege of Knoxville. A doubtful report is current of Longetreet having been de feated. The reports of the disastrous nature of Bragg's retreat are considered to have been somewhat exaggerated. Money tighter. Gold, 491 t per cent. premium. Stocks lower. On Monday General Meade reached Mine Run, where Lee was found strongly posted in his front. The armies are separated by Mine Run Valley, which crosses the Fredericksburgand Orange Plank Road, 12 miles from Orange Court-house. Artil lery firing commenced on Monday. The Federal in fantry were prepared to assault Lee's position, but General Warren advanced and found Lee too strongly posted. The assault was consequently delayed. It was reported yesterday in Washington that Meade bad fallen back to Fredericksburg and closed his campaign. Southern accounts, dated Sunday, represent both armies as confronting each other, and a battle im minent. They confirm the repulse of Kilpatrick's cavalry. Bragg's main army is reported to be beyond Dalton. Generals Hooker and Palmer evacuated Ringold yesterday, after burning' everything, and destroying the railroad from Chickamauga to Ringold. No Confederates wer3 found 23 miles southward from Chattanooga. Bragg was in force at Tunnel Hill. The nature of the roads and the country between Chattanooga and Atlanta will prevent Grant from prosecuting the campaign further this winter. Southern accounts of the battle on Lookout Mountain say :—" The enemy's lose was compara tively greater than ours. They drove us back by force of numbers. The enemy charged 40,000 strong. Our left centre gave way, and the troops retreated in disorder. After repeated charges, we evacuated Mission Ridge. Washington and Cobb's batteries lost all their gnus." Longetreet was still besieging Knoxville on the 28th. On the 25th he made a diversion on the Federal position on the south side of the river, and was repulsed. A Michigan regiment captured a Confederate rifle pit, but was forced back with heavy loss. A force under Grainger has been detached to as sist Burnside. Cumberland Gap despatches of yesterday state that a force had been sent to intercept Longetreet's retreat into Virginia, but there is no positive evidence that he hm left Knoxville. A courier is said to have brought intelligence to Cumberland Gap that Longetreet bad attempted to cross the river on Sunday, which brought on a general engagement, resulting in a Confederate de feat and the capture of 5,000 cavalry under Wheeler. This report is doubtful. News from Charleston to the 28th November states that a steady fire was kept up on Fort Sumter, and shells were occasionally thrown into the city.

An addition to the Royal Navy will be made tbia day by the launch, at the premises of the Thames Iron works sad Shipbuildiag Company, Orehned-yard, Black wall, of her Majesty's sernonr-cased screw steam frigate Minotaur, of 6,812 took sad 1,360 borse-powsr. Every arrangement ler the launch has been completed under the supennteodeooe of the directors of the company and Mr. Pemberton, master shipwright. A numerous company ye expected to attend, and an extensive booth, provided with raised seats, has bele erected near the buildmg shp at the bow at the chip for the accommodation of members of the Admi ralty, naval and military officers, and others provided with tickets. The public will be edmiled to the modem to witness the launch, which will take place at 2 o'clock. The Minotaur is of the same rice and class se the Aglaeourt, now building for the government by Mum. Laird, of Birkenhead, and the Northumberland, building at Mill wall. The designs for these Mammies and powerful frigakell having been approved by the Admiralty, the contract fir the construction of the Minotaur was takes by the Themes Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company cm the 3d of Sep. telpher, 1861, and her present advanced state is a rancid the vast resources of the company for iron shipbuilding.

The armour of the Warrior extends only over a length of 212 feet, the satire length of that mad being 380 feet ; but the Minotaur will be completely iron-alai from stem to stern, leaving no part of the vessel unpro tected. About one-third of her armour has already been bolted to her sides, and the whole of her pietas have been forged under steam hammer on the premises of her builders, the Thames Ironworks Company. After the launch the Minotaur will be towed to the Victoria Docks, to be fitted with her screw machinery and the remainder of her wrought iron armour plates. Her armament will consist of 50 guns of large calibre, the description of which has not yet been determined on—the Admiralty now being engaged in carrying out experiments on board the Excellent gunnery ship, in order to ascertain the efficiency of 300- pounder Titled, 150-pounder round shot, and other guns for arming men of war, and also an improved apparatus which has been invented for the purpose of working these large guns with ease and efficiency in the naval service. The Minotaur has been fitted for the reception when necessary of a powerful ram at her stem, and her internal arrangementa have been carried out with a view to avoid certain ackiww lodged defects in the construction of iron-clad needs pre viously launched. - - - METROPOLITAN BOARD OP WORKS. The weekly meeting of the board was held yesterday in the board-room, Spring-gardene. Mr. TensawES resided. The Cler acme:mead that a communication had been received from the veatry.clerk of St. James's, Westminster, eocloeiog the following resolution, passed by the vestry : " That the several testimonials and letters of Mr. Nicholay be Rent to each vestry and district board inviting them to concur with this vestry in urging upon the Board of Works the propriety of nicking further inquiry as to their engineer's connexion with the controstor,urgiug the board to suspend all operations coder Mr. Furness's contract, and if possible to annul the same to order to proceed to re•advertisiog for ten ders, public confidence not following the board in its recent CMIIIIO. Of the subject of the engineer's 001111e11011 with the costaactor, this vestry desires to expri ha its opinion that the report of the Main Drainage Committee on the mini neer's connexioo with a contract for the execution of works at Odessa is most unsatisfactory, and that a copy of this resolution be sent to the Metropolitan Board of Works." It was also stated that a deputation was appointed by the vestry to attend at the board and support the resolution. The deputation wee introduced, and Mr. Beale, on the part of the gentlemen composing it, spoke in support of their views. The CRAIRSIAN—We cannot but regret that so intel- Emmet and respectable a vestry as St. James's were not better informed on some questions than they appear to ham been. It is perfectly clear that this board did all that public men could do to inquire most searchingly into the questions that were raised. Every inquiry that was possible was made into the circumstances that tran spired, and the board took the only course they could take. Some credit mart be given to men sodeavouring to discharge their duty. There are circumstances connected with this, as with kindred transectines, which the hosed cannot discnes in public. We are in posisesion of informa tion that we cannot state to the public, and some confidence must be placed in the decision of a hoard having only one object—the interest of those they represent. It is im pcoilde for the board to Mete every influence that guided them in the decision to which they came. They were obliged to look at all the circumstances—to weigh them, and to weigh also the consequences ; and I hops the vestry will feel that this board is as competent to (OM a judgment oa all these circumstances as the vestry itself. So far es further inquiry may be deemed necessary the board would have no possible objection to the fullest inquiry being made. I am satisfied that on inquiry the result world be that at which the board has arrived. lam sure the vestry would give the board credit for being in posiessioe of information to justify the conclusion at which they have arrived. The board did not ecomt the tender of Mr. Furness on the recommendation of the engineer ; they accepted it 000trary to the recommendation of the engineer. Of that there an be no coseitioo. The deputation then withdrew. Mr. W. W. SMITH, the solicitor to the hoard, preesated the draft of a bill to be submitted to parliament for the pur pose of obtaining additional lands for the embankment of the southern side of the Thames, the principal feature in it being the acquisition of lead near Stangete, Weetmineter. Thin gave rise to a loos diaciimion, it being argued no no. side that this land Iran nee,mtakry for the purpose of obtain. iog proper approaches to the land already secured to the beard under the authority of a former act of parliament ; while on the other side it was argued that the obtaining of this land would merely be for the accommodation of St. Thomas's Hospital, proposed to be erected there ; and if it was really required, that the governors of that hospital ought to introduce the bill. and carry it oo at their own ex. name, and sot at the expense of the ratepayers of the me tropolis. A division took place on the question of the board pro. ceedieg with this bill, and the motion was carried by a ma *ill of 21 to 7. The rest of the Valium wu unworthy of a report, and the board adjourned. Hos/mum'.
