New YORK. Jan &.

NEW ORK, Jan. 8,
The Herald says our news from Port
Royal by the Ariel yesterday is interest,"
ing. The British steamer Fingal attempt
ed to run the blockade at Savannah but
was foiled. She got ready to make her
way through " arsaw Sound, but inforlni-
tion having been received from deserter,
the gunboat Ottowa was dispatched to the
Sound, and on her arrival the rebel mos-
quito fleet of Tatnall came down to attack
her after brisk engagement shell was
put through Comodore Tatnall's vessel
when he retired. The escape Of the Fin
gal was thus frustrated.
A Spanish schooner without nar,e,
but laden with valuable cargo of Havana
cigars, shoes, and other stores, was chased,
run aground and burned at Cumberland
Inlet on the 18th, by the boats of the BIZ
enville and Alabama. Her cargo was ta-
ken off: The crew had previously fed to
the woods.
Advices from Port Royal indicate that
Commodore Dupont is preparing for new
naval demonstration.
The Government has taken measures
to obtain cotton seed from Port Royal in
order that it may be planted in Illinois
and other Western States.

the train came along and pitched him
head over heels into the bushes. The
train stopped, and then backed to pick up
the body, wien Bromley coolly Informed
the conductor, as he brushed the dirt from
his coat-sleeves, that if he had "damaged
the engine any, he was ready to settle fo1
it," and walked off home as if nothing had
happened
