Tho New York Commercial Advertiser
gives the following description Of the coast
Of North Carolina, which will DO especially
interesting now that tho victory at Hattsrss
has drawn pnblic attention thither
Outside Of the capes Of Virginia there ars
no inleis that we can discove on the best
maps, ft to admit vessels drawing more than
three feet of water, until reaching Ocracoke
inlet, which Is about one hundred and forty
miles below Cape henry
Il is 10 be observed, however, that the
narrow strip OF land lining the Southern
coast Is subject 10 constant changes, old chan
uels filing up and new cues forming by the
beating Of the ocean fges. i 10 reported
that one or two su-l openings have been
made since the establishing of the blockade.
Ocracoke Inlet IS about forty miles to the
southwest Of Cape Hatieras. The north
shore has a town Of the same name, with q
considerable amount of shipping engaged In
tho coasting trade. The entrance Ia narrow
and difficult, the general depth Of water be-
ing about ten feet.
The light house on an adjoining island hal
long been extinguished. 1t does net appeal
that this port has as yet been shut up; bu
we may hope that 1t will shortly be attended

The harbor Of Beaufort is the best on tht

water on the bar. A long and tortuous nav
igation and a railroad conn ct Beaufort wilt

ton with the interior ss well as with tn

Beaufort Is defended by Fort Macon, now IL
possession of the rebels though With whs
force 1t is held is unknown. The reduC
ton Of this would appear to be necessar
bpfore the place could be efficiently block

at Sc. Louis.
The subjoined extract from the Republi-
can, he leading Democratic paper in St.
louis, is fair expression OF the feeling with
which the proclamation OF General Fremont
is regarded by the citizens OF St. Louis. The
Republican says:
"The proclamation of Major General Fre-
mont, which appears in a iothsr column, is
the most important document which has yet
appeared IN the progress Of the wat. Let il be
read vita careful consideration by every citi-
zen The prompt visiting Of the EXTREMIST
penalties OF martial law upon all rebels with
10 the established military lines; the confs
cation of the property of persons who shall
take up arms against the government and
The declaration Of absolute freedom TO the
slaves of all suct persons; the extreme pen
alties to be visited upon bridge burners, rail-
road and telegraph destroyers, reasonable

''There ID no longer any middle ground or
room for traitors where the lawful govern
ment has sway. General Fremont strikes
boldly and fearIessly. The consolidated pat
riotism and the boundless resources of the
great Northwest are at his back. Let every
fsithful man, by word and feed, give aid and

In view of the many hard things that have
been said Of Gov Dennison, who really de
serves a much higher place in the estimation
of the people of Ohio than he occupies at
present. or than be is likely to occupy until
the unmerited abuse which has been heaped
upon him shall be removed, as it will be,
when the history Of his administration comes
to b. impartislly written; no one, we say. in
view Of these things has a stronger claim to
due credit for worthy acts than our indus ri
Gus and Well-meanlng Executive Let It be
known, therefore, that the Governor, at his
own expense, had the Forty Second Ohio
Regiment conveyed to the 0kio White Sui
Phur Springs on Saturday last where WAS
entertained until Monday morning, when it
returned 70 Camp Ohase. This is, at present,
the best disciplined Regiment 10 the State.
It moves as one man controlled entirely by
the powerful mind Of the brave and accom-
plished Colonel, whose commands there is no
one, officer or private, to dispute If any
feeling of jealousy should arise, on the part
of other regiments, In consequence Of this ap-
parent avoriism, the gall,at Colonel win
give such explanation to interested partles as
will promptly suppress every uprising Of that
