FORTRESS MONROE Old Point Comfort Nov. I, 1861
The steamtransport Belvidere, which accompanied
the Southern Expedition with horses. returned to
day in somewhat damaged condition. The Captain
and the Volunteer Quartermaster in charge, repor
that two gales were encountered, the severest OIL
Friday night in the conrse Of which portion of he
upper works were stove, and the boat commenced
leaking. Fearing the consequences of attempting tC
ride out the gale, the Belvidere, on Saturday morn
ing put back, and falling to obtain pilot at Hat
teras, she made for Hampton Roads direct. The
statements of the Captain and Quartermastcr not
very satisfactory. Nothing is known concerning the
feet, though inferences are yentured that some Of
the boats must have been lost
Capt. Braine of the Monticello who followed the
Belvidere up the Court reports having telegraphed
the feet of Bulls Bay on Saturday evening. Appar-
emily it was all together and Capt. Braine does not
doubt that its destination has been reached.
The Richmond Examiner of to-day has a tele-
graphic dispatch from Charleston Saturday that the
gale was severe and that il must have been severely
felt by the Federal feet supposed to be in that
neighborhood
The prevailing opinion here is that the gale was
not as severe as the Bevidere reports, that the fleet
was not scattered, and that the expedition reached
its destination.
Had the feet become scattered we would have
had more than one arrival from the coast by this
time and the fact that the Belvdere is the only one
that has returned leads to the presumption that she
prematurely turned back.
Capt. Braine, who experienced the whole Of the
gale, does not doubt the successful landing Of the
expedition, though no doubt it has encountered very
rough weather, and some Of the boats may have
been damaged
The intelligence by the Monticello has produced q
great relief from the gloom which the report by the
Bevdere was calculated to create. At headquarters
and Oh the flagship, confidence is now felt that the
expedition has successfully landed.
Thiny-nine negroes arrived here to-day from the
Rappahannock River They were from Northnm-
berland and Lancaster Counties. They escaped to
the Cambridge, which, with the Rescue, is doing
blockade duty that river and they represent that
the entire negro population in that part Of Virginia
were ON the move. The Cambridge has been up the
Rappahannock forty miles-the fuithest she can 20.
She draws twelve and half feet of water. The
highest point Of navigation is Fredericksburg where
boats drawing seven feet can it s said, reach at all
times.
The flag Of truce line has resumed operations
A boat went to-day with ten or fifteen passengers
mostly ladies', including the family Of Minister Dina
Try.
mail will be dispatched to the expedition TO.
morrow, and at intervals thereafter.
As mails generally have destination, il probably
will not be ont of place, telling any .ecret if
say that the destination Of the expedition is now well
uoderstood to be Bulls Bay, twenty-five miles above
Charleston.

ATTACK IN THE REAR,

We have some Interesting and important lnl0rfDa-
too from Arkansas, received through newspapers oil
that State, which, though couple OF weeks old,
contains some items that we have not had from any
other source. The Little Rock True Democrat OF
October IL, publishes letter to Gen. Albert Pike,
the Confederate Indian Commissioner, from the
Rebel Col. Mcintosh, in command Of regiment at
Camp Pleasant, expressing great alarm on account OF
an apprehended attack from party Of Creeks Col.
Mcintosh recommends that the forces IN the Cher
okes aud Cboctaw Nations be Immediately sent TO
his assistance. 1t appears that the South estern
Indians are by no means unanimous in hostility
TO the Uniled States Government, not"iih,
standing the seductions Of Gen. Pike ana
his Secession coadjutors. The creeks, uhoer
the lead of A-poth e-ho-la, one OF the chiefs
of the tribe have been the first to revolt against
the treaties whereby their loyalty has been at
temptedto be transferred from the Union 70 Inc hien
mond dynasty. A-poth-le.ho-la, gathering force
variously estimated at from 5000 TO 5000, lately
proceeded TO the Creek Agency at North Fork, and,
tearing down the Confederate flag boisted there by
McIntosh's regiment, up the stars and tripes oil
the Union. Great conste ernation was created among
the Dsunion residents by this uprising, and men,
women and children left in great numbers. Gen
McCulloch, then at Fayetteville, ordered out lUV
Cherokees, 500 Osages, and battalion OF Col
Cooper 8 regiment to dcrush the outbreak" The
expedition started probably about the 18th, but we
have no means Of knowing the result at present.
A dispatch from GeD. McCulloch, dated OCTOBER
10TH at Fayetteville, gives one Capt. Davidson, TO
whom it is directed, some instructions as TO move
ments Of troops, but contains nothing from which
can be inferred that McCulloch himself intended
marching into Missouri TO the aid of Gen. Price. Az
any rate il is certain that several thousand secession
soldiers will have to be kept in Arkansas 10 hold the
Indiana in check, so that the rebel forces VIII be
somewhat distracted and divided in their operations
