We have further intelligence that the fight
at Roanoke Island is progressing and with re f.
ported successes for the Federal cause as inii-
Gated by the sinking Of rebel gupboats, bat no
decisive results. Nj. SHANNON, a Hatteras
pilot, just arrived in this city, states that the
situation Of Roanoke Island is such that it may
easily be surrounded by our vessels and swept
by coIcentrie ire. Ths rebel troops, hoWsV-
or, were stationed on the Island in considerable
force, and a stubborn resistance was expected.
The population of the mainland is sparse, and
the country low, swGmpy and unhealthy. The
principal products of the seacOAst region are
corn and tobacco, with small quantities Of cot
ton and large amounts of turpsntins. The sea-
porte are all on low ground, and no fOrtihcAiona
can be erected which our vessels cannot readily
commsnd.
