Interesting Southern News.
WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT THE CAPTURE
OF FORT HENRY.

The following are the latest clippings
from Southern papers received by way of
Fortress Monroe:
The New Orleans papers report the burns
ing of the rebel steamer Calhoun.
Dispatches from GAINESVILLE state that
Fort Henry has fallen into the hands of the
enemy, our forces retreating to Fort Dom
nelson. The Federal gunboats are at Dan.
vile, Tennessee, and the bridge at that point
has been destroyed by the Yankees.
Twenty thousand Federals formed the
attacking column.
MEMPHIS, February Fort Henry was
captured by the Federals yesterday, after
two hours fighting.
NEW ORLEANS, February -Four hum
dred and ninety prisoners left yesterday to
be exchanged.
Southern papers received today are of
later dates than those of yesterday
The New Orleans Bulletin of 26th of
January says the reported burning OF the
steamer Calhoun was incorrect. When she
was abandoned h:r Captain set her on fire,
but it appears the Yankees shortly after
boarded her, eXtinguished the fire, and took
possession of the boat and cargo, which
consisted Of 5000 pounds OF powder, 10, 900
pounds salt petre, and quantity of block
tin, &C.
Speaking of the capture of Fort Henry,
the Richmond Despatch says: Though it
is much to be regretted by the South, it
was a tO-egone conclusion that whenever the
enemy should think proper to bring large
force OF men and artillery to bear upon it.
1t was structure thrown up since the be.
| ginning of the war, and was never expected
to resista heavy bombardment, or assault
from land force.
1t also says, "the destruction of the bridge
which crossed the Tennessee river, though
productive of some inconvenience, is not
matter of any gre t detriment to our inter.
est. The road without the bridge will still
be available for the purpose of strengthen
ing our lines, though connection, except for
mere convenience, being matter Of inferior
Importance.
