NEW YORK, October 6.
The Herald's special dated Washington,
9th says: Full official advices of a late
date were received at the Naval Depart
ment from Admiral Dahlgren. They are
full and very satisfactory, and although
from their nature their publication at this
time would be highly indiscreet, they
show that neither DahIgren nor Gilmore
are idle. They are pushing forward pre-
psrations for the renewal of active and
efficient operations. These two distin-
guished commanders have too much of the
interest Of the cause at heart and are too
busily engaged in forwarding their pre-.
parations for reducing the Notifications
and capturing the city to waste their time
in toolieh pickering as said of them by
certain newspaper correspondents and
others. On the contrary, they are working
cordially and heartily together, and the
results Of their cooperation will be wit
messed before long in manner which will
convince Beauregard and his friends and
sympathizers that all barbsrism is not ex-
hausted in the first shelling of the devot-
ed city.
A Fortress Monroe letter dated the 4th
to the Herald states that an expedition on
a large scale, consisting of artillery, cav
airy and infantry has been organized, and
in conjunction with several army gun
boats, started from here yesterday after
noon. The weather WAS all that could be
desired, hence the expeditionary corps
will not suffer any from unfavorable wind
and tide. Destination unknown even to
those participating. The troops left un-
der sealed orders which are not to be open
ed till certain point is reached. A place
of rendezvous has been appointed where
various commanders are to meet and adopt
such measures as will insure the SUCCESS
of the expedition. Major General Foster
has planned the campaign and entrusted
his intentions to only few competent and
Trustworthy officers in whom he reposes
every confidence. The object of the expe-
dition is TO strike a severe blow on a vital
point, and if properly carried out will have
q telling effect and may be conducive N
Fastening on the fall campaign on both
sides. At all events the rebels will be
compelled to concentrate a large force if
none is there at present and should the
latter be the case, our troops number
enough to fight heavy engagement, and
the result can be no other than a Union
victory.
