SAVANNAH THREATENED. The report that
Savannah was taken" grew out OF reports
that came by way of Richmond, that Commo
dore Dupont and Gen. Sherman were menac.
ing that city. 1t was known that they had
been preparing to move in that direction, and
it appears by rebel accounts that they have
succeeded i'll getting in the rear of fort Pulas-
Xxi, completely cutting off all communication be
t,ceen the city Of Sarannah and that important for
tfcdton. The dispatches p ublished III the
Richmond papers are as follows: -
AUGUSTA, Jan. 2.-The Savannah Morn.
ing News Of this morning says that thirteen
federal vessels, seven Of which number were
steamers, were reported to be off Skiddaway
Island yesterday. Fifteen were also seen from
fort Pulaski, bound southwark.
AUGUSTA, Jan. 28.-Integence from Sa-
vannah states that six federal vessels entered
the river yesterday, back of Little Tybee, and
passed up to the north end of Wilmington Isl
and, thereby cutting of communication bet,veen Jot
sPaIdSki and the city Of Savanndh. The enemy
sheled Wilmington Island, and fired on the
confederate steamer Ida, but no injury was
done. Commodore Tatnas feet was at
Thunderbolt, but drriUed at SaUdnndh. The
enemy is trying to remove the distractions
from the river. Fort Pulaski has provisions
enough to last them Sir months.
The boast that Fort Pulaski has provisions
enough 10 last the garrison six months, is, of
course, mere bravado. Probably there is not
salt enough i'll all Georgia to last that garrison
six months. The Richmond Dispatch ell
deavors to console itself with the belief that
the federal gunboats had not reached point
where it was possible for them to cut off COM
munication between the city and the fort,
therein assuming to be better informed on the
subject than its correspondent in Georgia. It
was this same Richmond Dispatch that re-
fused to believe that Zollicotfer's army had
been beaten in Kentucky.

The BATTLE OF SOMERsET.-In another
column we print part of a letter written from
Zollicoffers late camp in Kentucky to the
Cincinnati Gazette. 1t gives the most spirited
description OF the battle we have seen. The
writer did not see the bayonet charge that
forced the rebels to give way and run, but he
appears to have seen most of the fight 1t
turas out that no general was present at this
battle. 1t was all managed by the colonies of
the four regiments engaged, aided by the COM
manders of the batteries. Col. McCook of the
Ohio ninth acting for the time as leader Of the
whole. All honor to those brave fellows, and
take notice of the fact that they were Uoltm.

pears also that neither of Tennessee Union
regiments took any part in the battle. The
