SINKING OF THE VANDERBILT-FuR r.
TIER PARTICULARS,

We learn from the Tallahassee "Floridian,"
of the 22d August, that tho despatch anncun-
cling that the Federal steamer Vanderbilt had
been sunk by tie Confederate steamer Ge"rSia,
Capt. Semmes, has been confirmed by pas
senser, who recently arrived st Confederate
port from Havana. H. seems that the Wander
bilt chased Tie Georgia for some hours, and
upon nearing, hailed her, with Il demand to
surrender, which was answered By II broadsidc
from the Georgia which disabled her and final
~ sunk the Federal steamer. Her crew, con-
sisting of about 500 men, were all drowned ex.
ccpt 80. The "Florid;an' says one thing only
WAS wanting to make tic victory compile q
success: Tue notorious Com. likes was not
IN board Of the Vanderbilt when she sunk, he
having been removed from the command some
time previous, and consequently was not
drowned. The Vanderbilt was the tastes: and
most dangerous vessel Of her description in the
Federal Navy.
