Burnside Expedition In Motion
Southern News-The Rebels Made
Mistake in Building the Merrimnc.
Fort MoNRoE. Feb. THE steamer Easter n
State arrived here this morning, having lett
Hatteras yesterday. She brings the important
news that Gen. Burnside's feet left their anchor
age on Wednesday morning The gunboats
started at sunrise, and the troops and ships fol-.
lowed soon after. The destination was Roam.
oke Island. News of the arrival Of the feet at
the Island was expected.
Three or four extra regiments were left at
the Inlet.
Nothing had been heard at Norfolk of the
Burnside expedition.
The only copy of the Norfolk Day Book re-
ceived contains an editorial ceDsuring the news-
papers for giving publicity to the statement that
the Merrmac Is q failure. II admits the fact
to be true, and gives full statement of the
difficulties In regard to her. IL appears that
the calculations were erroneous. An error,
amounting to over two hundred tons, was dis.
covered when the ship was foated off, and this
causes the present detention. The chief SUBJ
ject of regret, however, Is that when che was
showed up again the ship caught upon the blocks,
and received a considerable strain. 1t Is vain
to deny that 1t is o serious injury to the ship,
but we are happy to state 1t is by no means ir.
reparable.
The Norfolk Day Book of yesterday has the
following:
KNoxvILLE, Tenn, Feb. Son Sunday 1t.
Col. Whites cavalry encountered q force of
Lincoln's infantry 10 Morgan county, Tenn, on
the mountain side. The Lincoln force was es-
timated at from one hundred and fifty to three
hundred. White charged upon the enemy
Capt. Duncan rallied his men twice, when he
was shot through the head and killed. The
Kentucky Unionists were then completely rout.
ed, and fled in confusion, leaving seven of their
dead on the field.
Tho Savannah Republican says there was no
new movement OF the Federal vessels lying In
the cut north of the river, beyond an addition
to the number. Vessels occupying their posi-
tionsca readily command the new passage.
The Richmond Dispatch says that the Burn
side expedition will at least have the effect of
making us look we'll to our defenses in that
quarter. Roanoke Island ought to be made
impregnable; all our batteries there and else
where should be provided with bomb-proof COW
eriDg The channel should be obstructed, and
no means left unemployed to foil the enemy.
The editorial on the Merrimac also says her
great draft Of water will prevent her taking
part In active operations. This draft original
~ was about twenty four feet, and 1t has been
considerably increased. The editor comforts
himself that at ell events she can be used as
floating battery.

The expulsion of Bright gave great joy at
