Accordingly the “yoats were with coffee, segars, shoes and fJjt, and the doomed schooner was Foon wrapped iu flames, the oilicers staying by her long enough to 968 that her destruction was inevitable. No sooner kad our boats started forthe ship than the schooner’s crew ran down ut of the weo's and boarded her, but they were toe late to extunguish the flames, her masts soon “geitig: by the board; aud when we Jast saw, her nonght remained save @ smoking wreck. Considering the close viewnity of these operations to the batteries at the mouth of the inlet, and the uncertainty as to whevwer it might mot prove a cbover ruse to draw us under the are of masked batteries, the expedition wes certainly avery hazardous one, and reilegts great cred upon thes officers and men who cayried it out.

The next i a day the Bhenrille anchored there, and, doubt- ‘with a fow it pessed off quite merrily, ané wh some ef | {8 , imagining that she was aground, three rebel ‘Mhose observarces which mark its presence in civilized | fands; but with the great majority the dsy was one ef gloom and cheerlessnese. The usual rumber of man were detaied for fatigue duty, and the work in @o Barbor and on the works went on aco? any other éayi but the men did not lator with a will. They felt gloemy and sad, aud tho oars in tke harbor dipped with no regularity; esch man was thinking of the North ern home; the family circle around the cheerful fireside; ofthe dinner, when the great fat brown turkey, with Jegs high in air,avaited the opening of hostilities; the war to the knife waged upon him, and the cranberry Diushe¢ until its face was scarlet at the naked lnxu- Fiance of the gobbler; and each one reflected that the strife of war bad made its decree that there should be no Dolidays or Sundays withm its limits, and that salt beef and bard tack made holiday feasts in the department of the Engineer Corps. With these reflections you may ‘well conceive that the beauty of the day an: the cheer- fal face which nature wore were not reflected in the countenances of the soldiers. Many of the fatigue par- ties suspended work for the day at noon,and spent the vemainder of the day in visiting and enjoying themselves ~aa well as they might. The jolly Jacks from the men-of- war were arhore in numbers on Liberty, and some of <them were jolly enough. I believe the evening was spent pleasantly by all in the department. A little toddy ‘was indulged in by nearly all hands in honor of the day, and the blood circulated more freely as fte gonial influence stole over them. It was my good fortune to enjoy my Christmas dinner with the oMcers of Colonel Serrell’s regiment of Engincers. A farge tent was put up, and baadsomely decorated with evergreens and flags, in which the feast came off. About thirty officers and two or three guests sat down to the table, which was bountifully supplied with the good things of this life. Of course the edibies were despatched with an intense gusto, and soon the wine circulated; Bpecehes were made, sentiments and toasts drank, and a geod time enjoyed until midnight. The usual toasts to the Prezident , Genera! McClellan, General Sherman, Colo- gel Serre!), and the officers of the regiment; the day we ‘eelebrate and the folks at home, with all the honors. During the evening » glee club sang several patriotic Bongs-with good effect, outside the tent. The serenade edded greatly to the pleasure of the occasion. On Christmas eve the Germans in the regiment adorned a Christmas tree, which was erected in the company Street, and some interesting and amusing ceremonies ere performed about it. The tree was brilliantly inuted by several dips, and hung with hard biscuits, of round and square form, pisces of pork and beef, raw and cooked; striugs of beans, which represent- 0 thie doctor’s pills, the heads of decapitated fowls, and empty bottles, symbolizing the lack of those spiritual re- freshments whch warm the soul and entiven the intellect om Christmas, a it should be. Certainly it was aclever satire on the good cheer of the day. When tho candles had been lighted the company assembled about the tree which was guarded by the tallest and shortest man in t oompany on either site, and the company broke out in a festive song, expressive of their intense delight at the re- currence of the day. Speeches were made in German, and « joyful evening spent. On ihe Wabash the Sailors got wp a negro concert on the gun deck, which was witnessed by Commodore Du. pont, Captains Davis and Rogers and the officers and crew @ the chip, to whom it afforded great deal of amuse- ment. ‘The Jacks sang aud played weil, and performed a Msue colored comedy in a very clever manner. ‘The day passed in festive style on the ships.of-war. There has been no little excitement on Ty bes island, oc- easioned by the daily caunonading by Fort Pulaski on our . It seems that a large raft of two hundred or more bers which the rebels bad prepared for gome un- known purpose, by some means or othor got loove and floated down to the island, ana beached withiu a mile and @ half of Fort Pulaski. A rebel deserter or apy, who came tothe island the next day from the fort, stated that he Bad cut the moorings of the raft and allowed {tto float @own. He also gave information, J understand, that the British ship Fingal was loaded and about to ran the ‘blockade via Warsaw Sound, He gave other information Of interest, if true. But to the raft again. As eoon as the raft was discovered on the beach, a party was de. tailed from the Forty sixth regiment to bring it to our camp, where it would come m play.

As the information he gave eppeared to the officers on shore to be of imyor- tance to the operations of the fleet, a Neutenant was or- dered to take Lim on board of the steamer Semiuole, the nearest vessel to shore, and report to Captain Gillis.’ The corporal stated that the English steamer Fingal, which some time ago ran the blockade, and got to Savannah, loaded with arms, accoutrements and clothing for the rebel army, had completed taking in a cargo of cotton, and dropped down opposite Thunderbolt, preparatory to mak- ing her escape out, to-night at high water, by way of Warsaw Sound. Captain JobaS. Missroon, commanding sailing sloop Savannah, being the senior naval officer here, the case was immediately reported to him, and in the meantime the Seminole prepared for leaving at a mo- ment’s notice, which was, however, not needed, as Cap. tain Missroon despatched the gunboat Pembina to lay off the Warsaw Sound. This corporal further etates that all the spare troops bad been removed from Fort Pulaski and Savannah to Purt Royal ferry, to prevent the Union forces, under General Sherman, from advancing. Dec. 23—This morning the steamers Seminole and Henry Andrew got under way, and went up the Warsaw Sound, and althoagh within he of the rebel batteries onshore, no shots were fired by them,and as we had orders not to fire unless being fired on trst, we came quietly to anchor, noticing the rebels striking their tents, and Commodore Jos. Tatnall, Confederate Navy, with his fleet—the steamers Savannah, Sampson and lute— close by, ready to take the troops off to safer quarters. Captain Gillis thinks he can take those batterics if he gets troops to hold them. Until then, we have to content ourselves with having Tatnall, with his navy, hemmed in, and our coustituting an efficient blockade of Warsaw ‘Sound and Sound jeading vo the interior of Florida. In the afternoon the Pembina and Henry Andrew got in motion and closer to the Latteries, when the rebel steam- era opened fire on them, most of the shots falling short, ‘This compliment was returned by the first’named in the shape of some eleven-inch shells, which the latter thought it prudent to ran away from with full speed. The Semi- hole got under way too; but no further chase was given, as darkness was setting in along with how water, which did not afford space to turn our vessels higher up the river. Dec. 24.—The steamor Henry Andrew captured a row- boat, with crew, belonging te Commodore Tatnall’s craft. They report the revels ina suffering conditica, and the soldiers anxious to desert.

Inthe issue of the Herat 234 November last appeared a letter addressed to you from Mr. George Francis Train, in London, in which assertions were made detrimental to the standing of Mr. F. of the firm of Sabel & Searle, of this city. Such assertions were to the effect that Mr. Sabel was engaged, in connection with other persons in England, in fitting out vessels and forwarding shipments of arms, &e., for Southern destinations in the rebel States, I have to-day received a communication from Mr. Sabel, which he desires me,as his agent here, to publish h the Hxn. the entire falsity of Mr. Train's state- as regards himself, and to deny in toto aby connec- est whatever in the transactions to whieb Mr. id to state further that he has sieps towards bringing Mr. Train ton sense of the injustice and injury he has so unwarrantably en- deavored to inflict upon him.

Ports of tho great Soutlja#n expedition, under Flag Officer S.F. Dupont, this fhao'frigate, then blockading the port of Georgetown, @ought en offing for her own safety, and while returning to'ber station fell in with the transport steamer Gowornor, in a sinking condition, and took from her the Battalion of marines, under the command of the stramer—in all about 400 souls. Important “fajuries, in the loss of boats, hawsors, cables, &c., the spindle of the main capstan badly sprung while engaged in this duty, the ship mach strained, and fading; on’her arrival at Port Royal, there were no fa- cilities for making the repairs or supplying the wood, water, bread, &¢., indispensable, Flag OMcer Dupont de- termined to despatch her to New York for supplies and re- pairs; elso to replace portions of her heavy battery, transferred to the Pocahontas, besides outfits and various stores furnished the Wabash and other vessels of the squadron, The Sabine was commissioned on the 30th of August last, and left the Navy Yard at Portsmouth, N. H.,on the 15th September, under orders to Flag Officer Stringham» at Hampton Roads. On her arrival there, however, Flag Officer Goldsberough had assumed command of the blockading squadron, and Captain Ringgold was charged with the blockade of Georgetown, S.C., and the coast embraced within that port of entry and Capo Roman, to which place Le immediately procoeded; and during the time she has been engaged on blockading duty she has never been beyond tho limits of her station, except on the occasion already referred to, For the firet time, on the day after her arrival off Port Royal harbor, in November, with the battalion of ma- ines, it was ascertained that the Sabine had been trans- ferred to the squadron under Flag Officer Dupont, and that orders had been despatched on the 3d to Captain Ring- gold, off Georgetown, to join the squadron, in order to take a prominent part in the bombardment of the forts. ‘The Flag Officer waited most anxiously for her arrival, and on the 6th, it being reported to him that she was in the offing, the Vixen and Forbes. with Mr. Boutello, Assistant in Coast Survey, were sent to pilot and tow her in. The orders of the 3d referred to did not intercept the Sabine off Georgetown, as she was at the very time car. rying out her good work of rescue; and after the recovery ship toorder,she was put on her course for Port Royal, and, notwithstanding a severe southwest gale of two | bas been within days’ duration, she was on the morning of the bombard- ment within distinct hearing of the heavy guns during the engagement, being thirty-five miles off. Soon after the first sound of the guns not only was tho ship fully prepared in all respecte to take any purt in the attack, but the battalion of marines was ready for ser” vice in the fieid. The officers and men were all eager to participate in the exploit, and sadly disappointed when Teaching anchorage to find, owing to the light wind, they |, were too late to assist in the fight. ‘The Sabine is in a high state of discipline and health the sick list not ae more than three per cent. officers and men all join in speaking of the noble qualities of the ship, and though some may disparage her in these days of steam, New York may well feel proud to have udueed go Hine a specimen of beauty and strength, hay- ing been originally built hére, and the credit of hor en- largemont and improvement is du: our worthy towns- man, Mr. Delano, Constreetor at wy Yard, ‘The Sabine requires docking for a day or two, to exam- ine her copper and rudder and to clean her bottom, which is a foul; and in tho opinion of hor intelligent carpenter, Mr. Burcham, all the repaira necessary can be completed, with proper attention, in a week or ten days, and the good ship ready to perforin eny service requ ired ‘The public may not be aware of the fact that Captain Ringgold has distinguished himself on two other impor tant occasions in the humane sphero of duty in which the Sabine has been go recently and successfully While in command of the brig Porpoise, in the ‘FE: were about reterning to the Sandwich Isiands, after havy- ing completed the survey of the group ot Feejee Islands, be wus directed to proceed to Turtle Island, a remote iglet at the southern extremity of the group, and search for and recover, if poxsible, the crew of the American whaleship Shylock, wrecked on its reefs. After threading all the intricatoand dangerous pacsages he reached the scone of the disaster, and found two of the men, the remainder having taken to the boats; and after further search traced them—through information gained from the natiyes—to the island of Vavaoo, where thirteen more were found in great destitntion. He car- ried them all to the Gendwich Islands, and ultimately ro- stored them to their homes and friends. Still more recentiy, while himself in command of the it North Pacific and Behring Straits Exploring identical brig Porpoise, one of his squadron. by the gallant Rolando, was despatched by him to the Pretas shoals to rescue the coolie passengers, #ix hun- dred and fifty in number, of the American ship Hyeia, bound to California and wrecked on these dangerous shoals. Five hundred and thirty-four were saved and in safety to Hong Kong, the remainder having been swept off before the arrival of the brig, and but for the humanity and forethought of Commodore Ringgold, and the untiring exertions of Lieutenant Commanding aoe _ one of the unfortunate tures would have on saved. ‘While the Sabine was on her way from Port Royal sho experienced a succession of heavy adverse gales, and for tho Jast five days has been within a few hours’ sail of New York. On the night of the 11th uit,, while proceed- ing from Georgetown, 8.C., to Port Royal, about half-pest nine in the evening, Charleston distant some twenty-five miles, bright light suddenly arese in the direction of that tity. Apprehepsions were entertained that a ser- vile insurrection or @ night attack upon some of our steamers then blockading that port had takea place. The ship was immediately steered for the entrance of the harbor, to render assistance to the latter if needed; but a heavy northeast gale sprang up very sudden'y, which rendeted it necessary for her to stand off to sea {oF her own safety. Some idea of the magnitade of the con- fingration may be formed when, as the ship receded from the coast, the flames rose higher and ligher, until the whole western heavens were jilumineted. At four in the morning, the ship then seventy-tive miles off, the fire seemed to rage with unditoinished fury, and, added to the darkness of the night, the violence of the stormund the wild glare in the rky, the scene was most imposing and long to be remembered. ARRIVAL OF THE STEAM FRIGATE RICH. MOND. The United States stean frigate Richmond, Commander Ellison, arrived at this port Wednesday afternoon from Key West, which place she left on the 21st of Decomber. She has come here for the purpose of having her ma- chinery repaired, which is eadly out of order. It will be romembered that the Richmond was en. gaged, together with the Niagara, at the late figh Fort Pickens. Shortly after that she repaired to Key Weet for the purpose of refitting, and aftor everything being done that was found necessary she again went to sea to do duty as a blockader. After being out a short time her machinery became very much damaged, and fhe was obliged to put back to Key Wost for further re- pairs, Then it was found that the demage was of such a nature that the Richmond would have to proceed to Now York to have it arranged. She consequently lertK ey West under sail, aud arrived here on W above stated. ‘The ‘ollowing 18 a correct list of the officers of the commanded erty. . Hender: Assistant Surg on; erick #.
