NEW YORK, Dec. 6.


Adviees from Fortress Monroe, yester-
day, announce the sailing of feet of sew
eral transports, and the iron-clads, with
sealed orders.
The Tribunes Washington dispatch says
that the statement in the Barney letter
printed in to-day's Tribune, that Barney
has had an interview with President Lin
coin, is contrsdicted on highest authority.
1t is further to be stated on the same au-
thority, that the President has no know
ledge whatever Of the statements contained
in the letter, and no communication on
that subject, or embodying such informa-
tion, has been made to him in any way
Leading Republicans deny all knowledge
of the matter, and the suppOsition that this
letter has any weight, for their alleged at
tention to BaFney's statements is entirely
erroneous It may be added that no recent
communication from Fernando Wood has
been received by the President, and none
whatever on these or similar subjects.
Private adEiees from one Of the most
eminent friends Of America in France rep
resent that the recent offer Of mediation b
Napoleon, is there regarded as an express
sion of deliberate and matured purpose,
from which the Emperor won't recede, and
that it is considered a serious blow to our
cause in Europe, and to the cause Of free
dom in Europe, not less than in America.

MARINE ITEMs.-The tug Kate Williams

The bark William Jones has been stripped

safety.

The steamers Cleyelsnd and Forest Queen
are running between Detroit and Saginaw.
They viii lay up after one more trip. The
tug Dart and steamer Huron have gone into

The Detroit Tribune, of the 5th, says
q The vessels which were due from above
have all passed down with the exception of
two, the General Burnside and Schooner D.
0. Dickinson, which vessels doubtless passed
down during the past night. There are
quite number due from below which have

The following is from the Herald:
Recent reconnoisances have discovered
that no attempt is made by the enemy to
hold the section north of the Rsppabsn-
mock, their forces having entirely evacu-
ated the country, with the exception Of
small scouting parties. These cross the
river at small blind ferries, now easily
found in consequence Of low water, and
after dash upon our outposts succeed in
escaping by some new routes unknown to
our piekets.
Difficulties heretofore existing in trans
mission Of mails between Washington and
Headquarters, by the energy Of Head
quarters postnRsters Hazlett and Cooley,
have at length been overcome, and we now
get letters without delay.
Convalescent and exchanged prisoners
are focking TO their respective commands
in great numbers.
General Burnside's order recommending
the dismissal of officers guilty Of neglect
Of duty, in allowing their commands to be
surprised by the enemy, gives universal
satisfaction, and will undoubtedly correct
the serious evil of carelessness on the part
of commanders of outposts.
No news from the front. Yesterday
General Hooker reviewed Sickles' Divi-
sion. The day was splendid, and the field
unexcelled in military display. 1t was
the finest Of the campaign.

ATrExPT TO SwUDLE A HoTEL.-A few
days ago q couple of " knucks" stopped at
the New England Hotel, and ran up bill of
about SO. They had some baggage, which
was supposed at the hotel to be good for the
bill. One morning they told the prOprietOrs
that their baggage had been stolen. It was
gone, sure enough, but the fellows thought
they knew Who had stolen it and eOuld catch
him. "send a thief to catch thief'-the
proverb is somewhat musty. The " knucks''
vent in search of the alleged baggage-thief,
and didn't return until they were brought
back by officers, together with the man who
carried of their baggage, who was undOubt-
edlya confederate. They were obliged to
pay their hotel bill and something over to
get out Of the scraPe. One of the men told
the Officer that similar affair in another
city cost him one hundred dollars. Rather
an expensive system Of swindling. They
had better settle up their hotel bills before
leaving, and give up the practice Of stealing
each others baggage.

years of age, whose family resides in this
city, West Side. He has been a resident Of
the South for about thrse years, aad was
studying civil engineering at Baton Rouge,
La, when the war broke ont. He enlisted in
the Point Coffee tLs.l Artillery, sud was
chosen corporal. After being captured at
Island No. 10, he was taken to Camp Doug
las, at Chicago, from which he escaped by
running the guards. The guards fred upon
hin, but he was not hit He was re-taken at
Dstroit, snd escaped again. Provost Marshal
Wsathsrly, yesterday, received information
that Evatt was in this city, and he according
y issued an srdsr to Deputy Provost Marshal
yanss ". oraw, to sesrch for and arrest him.
Last evening (Fridsy) Marshal Craw and
Detsotivs Burlison, attended by a posse Of
men detached from the police for thatpurposs
by City Marshal Gallagher, vent to the West
Side for the purpose Of arresting Evatt, who
vas believed to be stopping at the residence Of
Bis mother on Franklin street. The house
vas surrounded and Marshal Craw went in,
bHt the manin whom they were Of search was
not thsre. A watch was kept about the
honSs, however, aud about 4 past o'elsek

II Is wonder there are not more accidents

pomething singular about the infatuation

Who exhibit rather more han usnai caution
IN avoiding other dangers, frequently ezpose
themselves quite rseklessly about cars. We
have seen men who &c tainly were old enough
and locked as if they had sense enough, to
kaOW better, jump from trains as they were
Pasaing the foot Of Superior street, with both
hands full Of baggage, and their backs to-
wards the head Of the train. It would seem
