ORI MONROE, Jan. ~.
Bv tho arrival cf the steamer Eastern
States we have the first direct andoff;cial
intelligence ofBurnside's expedition. The
steamer Eastern States left Hatteras In
let last and arrived here this morning.
The recent storms were unusually severe
at Hatteras, and considerably delayed
and crippled the expedition, but when
tile Eastern States left everything look
ed favorable.
The Burnside expedition sailed from
Hampton Roads on the llth and 18th
of January, and consisted of over les
vessls Of all classes. They arrived at
Hatteras between the 10Th and 18th
insts., having been greatly retarded by
severe storms and adverse winds which
prevailed during that time. After their
arrival at Hatteras they experienced a
$ ,ries Of unparalleled storms, so that at
times it was impossible to hold commu-
nication between any two vessels OF
the tleet
After the storm It was discovered
that no vessels drawing over I feet 3
inches could ia into Pamlico Sound.
No vessel either drawing Is feet could
pass outside the bar unless very skill
fully piloted. In consequence Of this,
the City Of New York struck on the
outside Of the bar. She had cargo
valued at s200,0 Of powder. rifles,
and bombs, which was totally lost.
Her crew were saved.
An unknown schooner, loaded with
oats, and another schooner, name un-
known, with six Of her crew, were lost
on the beach.
The steamer Louisiana struck on the
bar, we,c she still remains. The report
of her burning is correct. She may get
off. The Eastern Qneen and the Volt
geus arc also ashore. The latter will
probably get of.
It is thought that the pilots Of Hat
teras arc traitors, having intentionally
ran several vessels ashore.
The waves dashed with clean sweep
across the Hstteras shore, completely
cutting on the fort from outside COM
munication.

brook winds away by another lane
until it spreads into river'likc digni

elms in the flower court below it,
which. with the spacions garden and
orchard behind, and the extensive
barn, yards and outbuildings, so
completely occupies one of the an
giles formed by the crossing Of the
lare and the stream--that pretty
farm house contains ore OF the hap
piest and most prosperous families
in Abcrleigh-the large and thriving
family OF Farmer Evans.
Whether from skill or from good
iortune--or, as is most probable from
a very lucky mixture OF both--every-
thing goes right on his great farm.
His crops are the best in the parish;
his hay is never spoiled; his cattle
never die; his servants never thieve
his children are never ill. He buys
cheap and sells dear; money gath
ers upon him like snow ball--ant
yet in spite Of all this provoking and
intoterable prosperity, everybody
loves Farmer Evans. He is 80 hos

There, after all, lies the charm, =
Riches have not only not spoilt th'
man, but they have not altered him
