A special dispatch from Washington to the
New York Post says: The official reports
from Admiral Dupont have been received at
the Navy Department, but have not yet been
published They will be doubtless, as soon
as they can be copied, if the details of the
late operations are of a nature to be given to
press without detriment to future plans.-
The main points Of bis reports, | understand,
have been anticipated by the unofficial nc
accoun.s and the opinion Is almost unanim-
Gus in naval circles that the iron-ca Is have
achieved an undeniablc triumph. They have
shown that they can stand an unprecedented
fire with comparatively little injury, and that
the only difficulty now in reaching Charles
ton consists IN the distinctions of the chan
nes. Means will be instantly taken for the
removal of these, and then the experiment
will be repeated under the surest auspices OF
success. Nothing but admiration In express
ed for the daring Of the crews of our little
iron fleet"

highly to my lriend--who, will add, is more
familiar with British troops than our own, but
he does not for tina, reason have any the less

they will get at them speedily. The good

The correspondent says the trial was decisive
The ordeal Of two hours served to prove that
the defensive powers Of the iron fleet were
sufficient to withstand the terrible force Of
the offensive works it had TO essail. while the
limitations Of the offensive powers Of the iron
clads took away all advantage. The result of
the reconnaissance proves the utter INSULT
cheney OF the iron-cad feet to take Charles

Tine ALABAMA Nothing has been heard for
some time frum this famous rebel cruiser, and moth
ing is known Of her whereabouts except that she
was q bound SOUTH Ii is supposed that she was
bound TO Cape Horn, to try and intercept the clipper
ship, which has on board the iron clad Monitor
CamaHche, destined for the defense of San Francisco
IIarbor. Nothing had been heard from the clipper
since she sailed from New York, though she was not
yet due at San Francisco At the latest advices. Her
capture by either Of the rebel cruisers would be II
serIOus loss, and postpone for another year the con-
structiun Of the Monitor which the commerce Of San
Francisco demands for its protection.
