FROM THER APPAHANNOCK.

The u. s. steamer Commodore Read, a. V.
Lieut.. E. Hooker, commanding, has arrived at
the Navy Yard from the Rappahannock for re-
pairs.
She reports the Rappahannock clear of tor
pedoes and patrolled by vessels of fiotilla to
Pert Royal, and occasionally above that
place.
The banks of the river are infested with
euerrillas, but from a wholesale dread OF the
gnI boats they are exceedingly cautious about
exposing themselves.
The Secesh population about the Great Wy
comico and the ad iacent creeks and bays have
been very quiet indeed since the chastisement
inflicted by the gunboats at the time of Com
mander Parker's visit to that region few
weeks since.
