On the night Of the 18th, Lieut.. Wood
of the confederate Navy, left Richmond
with 70 men and four boats loaded on
wagons, and about dozen wagons load
ed with stores, ammunition, &c. The
expedition proceeded across the Chicka-
hominy river. Taking the rcu:e of the
army Of the Peninsula. they crossed the
Pamunky and Wattasson rivers. On
Saturday they reached Ponakatank.
The intention of Lieut. Wood was to
surprise a gun boat stationed at this
point, kill or capture the crew, and then
put to sea. provided the boat was we'll
provided with stores and ammunition.
His wagons could return to Richmond
if anything was needed. He had all that
was needed with him. as every prepara-
ton had been made for success.
The men arrived with rifles, pistols and
cutlasses. On Sunday the force was di-
vided-64 men to go with Lieut.. Wood,
and the balance to remain with the wag-
Ons.
CTn Sunday night the party set out in
their boats, and soon reached the neigh
borhood of the gun boat.
Instead of surprising the crew, howey
cr, the rebels were themselves surprised.
When they came within three hundred
Yards, the gun beat suddenly illuminated.
and such deadly discharge was poured
into the rebel boats, that only Lieuten-

There is little to note concerning ope-
rations Of vest. rday, though Sumter has
been rendered useless for defense. Big
guns in our batteries were deliberately
engaged rounding off its remaining an
giles and putting on the finishing touches
of its destruction. Wagner is hard nut
to crack; though foot by foot, yard by
ward, our brave soldiers are digging their
way into it during the bombardment.---
For seven DAYS not one moment has been
lost in their work. We infer that Wag-
ner. with its sur. .ies cut of. and our
men willing 20 pick-axe and spape under
its veTv perapet, will not long hold out.
The prospect of a transfer Of the Fort to
the federals soon daily brightens. The
estruction of Sumter relieves batteries

Editor Nonpareit: -
The political canvass begins to wax

moving heaven and earth to secure its
saccess. Your very happy comments a
few days since, upon the tory convention,
and the ticket brought forth 10y the
same, are we'll received by the Union
men here-they appreciate the fearless
blows You are dealing upon the heads OF
these cringing sycophantic allies of King
jeff, and hope you will keep doing So"
1t is rumored, and not without found&-
ton, opine, that the old arch-rebel,
Hill, is going to decline the nomination
FOR Treasurer 4 Recorder, and gain
ii ice on the ticket as candidate for rep
resentative. He is cunning enough to
see there is no earthly chance for him to
be elected to the Office to which he has
been nominated, and he intends to take
advantage of an unhappy division of the
Union party on the Representative, to
steal into the Legislature. But he need
not lay the. iattering JUNCTION to his soul
that the Union party is split-he will
slip up on this. True, we have now n
the field two candidates for Representa-
tive, but either of them would withdraw
in moment, should it become apparent
that his running would result in the ele-
walton Of traitor. At present, we have
entire confidence in our ability to run
both, and leave Hill third best in the
race. In haste, yours, HARRISON.

On the 23d, making good his uotice to

mour, commanding marsh battery, to
open with riied gun upon Charleston
during night, Between l and o'clock
Saturday morning, fifteen shells, Birney's
invention, pitched nEer James Island
batteries. across the harbor into town.
The effect of this demonstration against
the city was quite satisfactory to our
selves. Perhaps Beauregard had Oonsitt-
cred Gilmore's threat to shell Charleston
at distance of four miles, too preposter-
0us to demand attention. Certain that
the CITY had not been evacuated by all
non-combattants, for there was most up
