Several steamers with numerous regiments
left this port to-day as portion of Gen.
Banks expedition. Among them were the
Illinois, Northern Light, and several smaller

gether with number of New York batteries
Major Gen. Banks commanding was escorted
down the bay this evening by distinguished
party of citizens of New York, including Gov.
Curtin of Pennsylvania, Mayor Opdyke, Gen.
Strong, Col. Frank Z. Howe, Hon. Rufus An
drew, Gen. p. A. Wetmore, Major Gen. Auger,
Commodores Vanderbilt and Van Brunt, and
others, who accompanied the flag ship TO
quarantine, where Gen. Banks embarked on
board the flag ship North Star amid the bless
ings and heartfelt greetings of his enthusiastic
friends. The weather is fine, and the expedi-
tion sails under the most favorable auspices
Gen. Andrews and staff remain here. and will

THAT 30,000."-The thirty thousand ="
rebels taken prisoners at the fight at Black
Water, as telegraphed to the evening papers
Wednesday, turns out as we expected-it was
80! The manuscript, as put into the hands of
the Boston operator, read "30 odd," and he
telegraphed it 10000, and repeated it upon be-
ing asked if the number was correct.
sg- The Bangor Whig learns that is pro-
posed to start printing Office at Pensacola,
where many of our troops are stationed 1t.
Warren G. Plummer, of the 18th Maine Regi-
ment is to be editor of the paper which it is
proposed to publish. Lieut.. Plummer was
formerly connected with the Aroostook Pion-
eer
sB- The London papers which have been
most abusive of the American government
the most in sympathy with the south, the loud
est to denounce the war, and foremost to pre-
dict its total failure, such as the Times, for ex-
ample, are now the most denunciatory of the
removal Of Mcclellan, and the most forward
forward to regard it as the crowning disgrace
of the government. Such developments are
calculated to deepen the conviction of loyal
men that the removal was made none too soon.
GB- 1t seems to us the conductor of the
Home Journal at Gardiuer is needessly sensi-
tive in relation to Gen. McClellan-so sensi-
tive that he flares up at mere pleasantly.
we have no doubt Gen. Mcclellan smiled HIM
selfat the boquet motto of his lady friend,
which referred to his "slowness to anger" and
his being "greater than he who taketh city.''
AS Gen. Mcclellan had taken no cities, we
think the motto in exceeding bad taste, and
for the very reason that it would suggest what
was not intended

FORTRESS MONROE, Dec. 3.
The steamboat City of Hudson took fire
this morning soon after her arrival from Nor
folk, but was extinguished with slight damage.
1t is rumored that accommodating party
from Suffolk, in command of Col. Spears 18th
Penn. cavalry, had skirmish at Black Water
yesterday, capturing rebel battery and forty
prisoners without the loss of man.
The steamboat New York, with flag of
truce, left this afternoon for City Point with
100 rebel prisoners.
A storm commenced here this morning.
We learn from those who have had an op-
portunity Of seeing for themselves that Peters
burg, and along the route between there and
Richmond, is being fortified by digging rifle
pits and throwing up strong earthworks.
Large forces are at work upon them day and
night.
We also learn from a reliable source that
the channel through the stone blockade at
Charleston is temporarily obstructed by the
use of railroad iron, so that the rebels can
readily remove it for their own use.
