He CAPTURE OF FORT HATTkRAS.-Ihe following Is
the account published in the Petersburg Va Express
of the 3oth ut of the invasion of North Carolina and
the capture of fort Hatteras Of which we had brief
notice by telegraph
The long talked of expedition from fortress Monroe
got off on the 9th ult, under command of Gen b. F.
Butler tconssted of the first class frigaes Minnesota
and Wabash, the Pawnee tile Monticello Harriet Lane
Adelaide, and several Others along with about twenty
or twenty-five gun boats. The destination Of this for
mdabe feet was unknown to the agent of the assoca-
ted press at fortress Monroe when it sailed but its OBJ
ject fully developed.
We learn from a source every way reliable that at an
early hour the 29th ult it became evident TO the
small Confederate force stationed at fort Hatteas on
the coast of North Carolina that the feet which was
first discovered off Hatteras on the 18th ul contem-
plated attack at that point. About hapast o'clock
the powerful vessels opened fire the fort Tie fire
vigorously returned but after twenty rounds from
the fort, the ammunition became exhausted and the
entire garrison under command of Capt Barron late
OF the United States navy surrendered and were made
prisoners by Butler and his vandas
We have been unable to learn the loss of life, if aRv
Had ammunition been abundant it is scarcely probable
that the Confedeates could have maintained their posi-
ton against feet which combined 100 powerful guns
and lighting force of 1000 men. The garrison we
hear consisted Of but $50 men all Of whom it is
thought, were fit for duty. 1t is stated that when the
ammunition became exhausted the men sailed out to

prevent the essiaus from landing but the steamers
Immediately poured into their midst such shower OF
SHE'LL that they were forced to take shelter behind the
fort.
The fort erected but few months since, and it
is not presumed that it is Of very formidable charac-

Those familiar with the fort and the coast generally,
inform US that, without the cooperation Of fleet out

the yankees We know that several regiments are now
on their way to the fort from various points and ftere
is any possibility of oustng the vandals it will be done
The position is Of great Importance to the Confederate
government and it must be retakcn at all hazards
We understand that great excitement prevails at
Godsboro and other towns III eastern Carolina but the
late hour at which gathered such particulars as are
here given prevented from receiving such details BY
telegraph we made every effort to obtain We hope
TO receive further particulars

for peace while their brethren in the rebel States insist
on bloody and merclcss The object TO be at
tanned by both is the permanent establishment Of the
Southern Contederacy m Y. Herald.
This is another evidence Of the unceasing efforts Of
the Lincoln journals to humbug deceive and exasperae
the northern people They studously avoid publishing
the truth so far as the south concerned because they
fear that if the true feelings and sentiments of the south
people is known at the north reaction will be the
result They fear to tell the northern people that all
the south desires to be let alone aud that the var will
cease soon as the invaders arc withdrawn from south

Much NEEDED INrRoyEnESTs.-The Common
Council, Monday night, adopted two resolutions of
considerable importance to Wilamsburgh. One was
the selection of site for Staton-House for the
Fifth Precinct Police which has been much needed for
long time the old rookery the men now occupy is
neither comfortable nor safe. The new building is TO
DO located on the corner Of Fourth and North First
streets, locality that has recently been greatly m
proved By the opening Of Fourth street through what
was formerly Waterbuy's ropewak.
The other important measure was the adoption Of q
resolution providing for the opening of Twelfth street,
frorn Division avenue to Union This measure
it ID thought, win largely enhance the value of prop
esy in the neghborhood.
