OFF CAPE HENRY,
Tuesday Dec, -.

A large naval flee, accompanied
with land forces in the transports,
left Hampton Roads this morning,
steering in a southerly direction. The
larger portion OF the army transports
left during the night. At this writing
the flag ship Malvern and several OF
the larger vessels OF the feet are in
the Roads, but az the sailing orders
have been ~-signalied, they will proba-
bly, get under way in a short time
The iron-clads attached TO the feet
Were the first to move. The single
turretcd monitors so out in tow of
steamers. The Ilonsides and the
double turreted monitor Monadnock
propel themselves. Thus far we have
been favored with fine weather. A
light wind is blowing from off shore,
although indications seem to point to
i north-easter before We arrive Ut our
journeys end.
Our destination WILDE made known
to the public at the proper time. Suf-
fee it to remark that ample pre- para
lions have been provided TO warrant
vigorous and formidable attack on
the enemy's works. In all probabili-
ty a few days hence will give me an
opportunity of sending you full de-
tails of the expeditions.

New YORK, Dec. IA

NEW YORK, Dec. IA
The FribHns'S special nus sums up the
result of General Harren's expedition by
stating that. IN Il rapid march of fifty miles,
he destroyed three important bridges,
over twenty miles Of railroad, and a large
amount OF forage and other stores burned;
the Sussex CoHrt House was captured, a
scure or two Of prisoners taken, and he
will reach camp TO morrow.
A HsralPs special with Warren's corps.
gives particulars of the mSrch and condi-
ton of the country visited. Plantations
were frequent and large, and gave eyi
dence OF high cultivation. There was
great abundance of corn, sweet potatoes,
fodder and live stock. Thousands of bush
els were found in crib, and hundreds of
acres yet on stalk. No grain belonging
TO private parties were destroyed, except
where in instance of owners personal OBJ
%noxousness. Apple whisky and brandy
were found in abundance, seventy six
barrels being found in one lot, and one
hundred in another. Fruit was also found
in large quantities. A majority Of the in
habitants seemed reasonably prepared
With a years subsistence. The culture of
sorghum was a feature of the plantations
passed, and almost all had their own mills
and e~yaporators for manufacturing the
syrup. Horses and mules were generally
hidden in the woods and swamps, but
cattle and hogs were too numerous to be
thus disposed of. Chickens, turkeys and
geese were in abundance. The negroes
welcomed us every where, and returned
with our troops in considerable numbers.
But little public property was captured
or destroyed at Sussex Court House. We
secured a small lot of ammunition, but
some carbines had just been removed.
The TnbUns's correspondent, with War.
.ren's Corps, says Sussex C.. II. was burned
in retaliation for the murder OF three of
our men, and the stripping and exposing
of their bodies by the road side. The
town consisted of a court house, Jail, tav-
ern, and a dozen dwelling houses. Hills
Corps left our front the same day Warren
started, but the rebels failed to anticipate
his 4ovements; they evidently anticipa-
ted another attack on the South side RI
and had made necessary preparations for
its defence. -

The following official reports were
received this evening from Gvmerai
Thomas dated at his headquarters
near Franklin
Dec. Il. 1861
A report just received from Major
General Wilson states that at 6 o'clock
P. NJ. to-day he attacked and dispers
ed Stevens division of rebel infantry
and a brigade of cavalry, capturing
three guns. The 4th U. s cavalry,
aud Hatch's division OF cavalry, hand
somely supported By Kempe's did the
work making several beautiful charges
breaking the rebel infantry in all Iii
.rectiohs,' Had it only been light the
re6cf-r"ar guard would have been en-
tirely destroyed as it has been severe
ly punished. The whole army will
continue Il vigorous pursuit in the
morning.
This attack was made six miles be-

The new from the South is such as
to make the hearts of patriots rejoice
When Sherman cut loose from Allan.
Ia, and as it were, severed his com
munication with the North, he stated
that he had left Hood in good hands,
and that ne would be properly cared
for. How nobly has Thomas redeem.
ed that promise, The change of base
of Hood, and his apparently unob-
structed march almost to Nashville
itself, for a while caused some appre-
pension to be felt for Thomas and his
army, and Hood himselfseems TO have
. thought he could secure an easy vic
tory But he reckoned without his
host. Thomas, confident in his
strength, waited for the proper mo-
ment, and then, with the glorious
soldiers under his command, struck
such o blow at made the too-confident
rebel general stagger back, crushed
and bleeding, his army divided and
scattered, while the jubilant victors
are pressing him to the bitter end
Glorious Thomas, glorious soldiers!
But what of Sherman?
For a month the question has been
daily asked, but not answered He
now speaks for himself. With his
army of heroes, be has made a trium-
umphant march through the heart of
the enemy's country, gathering the
2 freed victims of oppression in such
numbers, and supplies in such guam
titles, that lie must divest himself of
them, before he can commence the
work of demolishing the strongholds
of rebellion. We doubt not he is
ever now laundering at the gates of
Savannah, if he has not already pos
