The Richmond Examiner of the Sth inst,
says it was reported yesterday, via Peters
burg. that a great expedition of gunboats
and transports, under command Of General
Naglee, had left Fortress Monroe on the LIST
inst, for some Southern port. From indica-

rreraring to make a grand demonstration
upon Goldsboro or Wilmington, and there Is
little doubt that the first clash of arms will
come from that quarter.
