T returned on Wednesday evening, on the gupboat Otta. wa, from Warsaw Sound, where I bad been for severa} days onan important expedition, the progress of which I shall now report. The movement bad long been con- sidered, and everything was ready for its inauguration on Monday, the 20th just. On the afternoon ef that daythe troops which were to compose the land force of the expedition were embarked safely upon the transports, and there seemed to be a fair prospect of an early stort for the unknown scene of operations. But the night came rapidly on, and it was apparent that before the thousand and one details necessary to be carried out could be completed the day would be gone and the ve parture of the fleet postponed. The transports lsy at anchor near the shore, and though greatly crowded the men made themselves quite comfor: ‘and indulged in a0 complainis or growls, as they expected to sail on the morrow. During the vight the wind and weather changed, and at daylight there was @ fresh breeze from the worth east. This soon increased to a gale, and the transports were compelled to ebange their anchorage to deeper water and more commodious positions. Throughout the day the gale continued, growing more severe every hour, vatil all hopes of getting off faded from the minds of the most hopeful, and we al! concluded that we were in for a tedious imprisonment: and we were quite right in out gloomy forebodings, as it unfortunately proved. ‘The gale Continued with unabuted violence until Friday night, when “Whrubsided, amd a small bit of blue sky, no larger than one’s band, revealed itself, and sent a gleam of joy aud satisfaction throughout the fleet. The crowded state of the steamers, and tbe jmpossibilisy Of landing the troops to enable the decks to be cleaved up, made the trans ports most foul and dimagresable How the troops en dured the tedium, foul air and other discomforts, without joud and general complaint, I am unable to conceire But the Ninety-seventh Pennsylvania Volunteers, Colonel ‘Guss, who were densely packet upon the Boston, rarely uttered a compiaiat or expression of dissatisfaction, aud from personal observation I must say that their behavior ‘was most excellent through the whole of my stay upon the steamer, Captain Johnson and the officers of the Boston did everything they could to make the troops a. comfortable as possible, but in spite ef their efforts the time was passed disagreeably and uocomfortabiy enough ‘On Saturday, the weather being propitious, it was thought that we would be able to t; but the unfortn nate Getention of the fleet so long by the gales made it necessary to replenish the supply of water and commis- sary stores on the vessels, and the day was consumed be- fore the work was secomplished. On Sunday morning the Wabash hoisted av American ensign at her fore as a signal for getting away, and immediately the Ottawa, Commander Stevens; the Seneca, Cdmmander Ammen the Unadilla, Commander Collins and the Pembina, Com- mander Bankhead, got inderweigh, followed by the isaac Smith, Commander Nicholson; the Potumska, Command er Watmough; the Ellen, Acting Master Budd; the West- ern World, Acting Master Gregory, and the Mary Au- drews, Acting Master Mathews. The transports follow- ed, towing schooners, and stood out to sea—the Una. dilla, Pembina and Mary Andrews, with several trans. ports, taking the inside or Skull creek route. I purposely Tefrain from wating the transports or the regiments composing the land forces, or giving their strength, as what has already besn accomplished is merely prepara. tory, and it might be detrimental to the service to reveal auything at present in relation to them. When the proper time comes T shall give (ne fullest details of al operations, and the forces engaged. But to return to the fleet. After a pleasant ail we entered Warsaw Sound and came to anchor for the night. We found at the abper anchorage, at the meuih of the Wilming. ton river, the sloop-of.war Seminole, Commande Gillis, and the gunboat Norwien, guarding tha avewue of escape from Savannab the Fingal was coming through this paseage when our gunboats took their position there.

From the course they were pursuing we were led to believe that Tatuall might design am attack on our flotilla; so all went to quarters, sprigs were rigged on our cables, and the Ottawa and Seuees sprung their broadsides so as to bear up the creek, and we awaited the rebels’ approach. sut they came not, and we lost ight of them i the darkness of the night. The night was passed in qutet. The enemy undoubtedly had a picket in the woods near us, and several men having beeu observed by the lookout on the Potumska, about dark, to run into n’s house, a rifle projectile was thrown into it by Commander Waimongh, and the enemy did not again show themselves in that quarter: During the evening Lieutenant patched in the (ttawa’s gig to scout up the creek. Passing the spiles with ease, he pulled silently up the sireamn with muitied oars, and with no op- position succeeded in reaching the mouth of the creek, where it enters the Savannah rive He came upon the fleet of Tatnall lying there, and approached near enough to see the watch on deck. Ashe was too near them in case they discovered him, and as he had accomplished the object of the reconnoisance, he returned and reported the facts to Captain Davis. During the afternoon of Monday we discovered the Una- dilla and Pembina in what we supposed to be the Savan- nab river; but, as !t has since proved, they were in Mud river, at anchor. Signals were exchanged between tho Ottawa and Unadilla, and the latter signalized the fact that she was ‘aground, but would get off at high water. On Tuesday forenoon Tatnall’s fleet were again dis- covered standing down the Savannah. We beat to quarters, and when the flagsbip had got within range wo opeved on her with an eleven-inch on from the Ottawa. ‘The shell burst short; but, as sbe was still lessening the distance, & Parrott rifle shell was pitched at her, and came very near her. The signal fer action having been given, ail the gun- boats opened tire. The rebels returned # few shots, which fell short. Our fire was terrific from the elev inch guns, the eight-inch amd Jong thirty-twos ef the Isaac P. Smith, and all the rifled guns. The Pembina and Unadilla also opened fire from their position, and the Febels found themselves between two fires. The engage- ment lasted nearly two hours, during which time the rebel flagship was struck three times, seriously damaging her. One eleven-inch shell struck “ber on ‘her wheel- house, and so much disab’ed her as to compe! the com. mander to sigual for assistance, and oue steamer turned around aud went to her aid. The other three steamed down towards Fort Pulaski faster than they ever went before—their walkingbeams going up and down like lightening, and clouds of s1 ¢ pouring out of their smokestacks, as the pi ood was piled into thetur. Barnes was des. pacer. While the three steamers were running for Pulaski the Commodore's ship steamed slowly up theriver to get as the boat could do to d her kept as far away as possible, as the flagship was our target. It was on this return trip that a second eleven-inch shell burst aft of the wheelhorse, on deck, and scattered death and destruction on every band. A column of dense while smoke arose from the steamer, and continued to pour ont for the peried of five migutes, and it was soon evident that she was on fire. Finally the rebels smeceeded in extinguishing the conflagration aud got out of range, not, however, before « third shel struck ihe vessel forwar, and went through her. The Commodore was roughly used, and when well ont of range the verse! came to anchor and damages were partially repaired. An hour or two later two of the Steamere from below came up and ran the gauntlet of our fire, but not without damage. The third vemained at anchor near Fort Pulaski.

From our anchorage we can plainly discern the rebel batteries near the Red House, on Skidaway Island, com. manding the Wilmington river; and with a good glass we are able to distinguish men at work on the battery in strengthening it and mounting guns. The enemy as working like beavers and we cap see the progress of the work day by day. The battery mounts ten or twelve guns, with room enough for more, It ia certainly a very extensive, and I think strong work; but that will be bet ter ascertained a few days bence. Since I saw Skidaway? two or three months since, the largest battery has bee” erected and completed. At the time referred to there were not more than five guns, if as many, in position, and I am quite confident that with the force then at our disposal it could have been easily taken, and a clear road ‘to the Savannah river gained. Perhaps a small battery at Thunderbolt might have disputed our passage; but that could have been soon silenced, as it mounted only light field pieces. However, it was not done; and now it will cost us ahard fight to drive the rebels out of either. Sil 1 predict that the battery is ours in less than fifteen days if things move right.

Our Havena Cheapeudance: Havana, Feb, 8, 1862, Movements of the Allied Proaps—The Allied Commission to the Capital—Courtesy of “the Merican Commander-in- Chief—Arrival of Miramon at Vera Cruz—His Instant Arrest by the British—The Demands of President Juare — General Prim a Candidate for the Crown of Mexico— Plots and Counter Plots, de., dc. Notwithstanding that the Henarp is represented by more than one correspondent in the Mexican republic, Still, in view of the importance of the events transpiring there, I do not think it will be amiss te give the latest news received here from that quarter. By the arrival ‘at this port en the 6th of the Spanish steamer Francisco de Asis, we have dates from Vera Cruz to the Ist instant. In fact, since the despatch of my last letter we have had several arrivais,and the news which has thus accdmulat- ed may be summed up in afew lines. The French Zou- aves, a couple of Spanish battalions aud a small detach- ment of English, have pushed forward from Vera Cruz on ‘the road to the capital, and now occupy Medellin and La Fejeria, some fifteen miles distant. Commission ers from the Allies, with separate and joint ultima: ta to the Mexican government, took their departure for Mexico city on the 14th, and arrivedon the 19th ult. Goueral Uraga, of the Mexican army, paid every atten- tion to the Allied Commissioners on their way to the capital, aud even presented a splendid Mexican herse to Brigaiier General Milans del Bosch, the Spanish repre- sentative an hief of Geueral Pri He has, moreover. his courtesies to the soldiers of the allies, to whom he has sent cattle and provisions. ‘The Commissioners were kindly received aud attentively listened to by Juarez, who kept most diplomatically dumb, not saying one word ia reply when they had concluded. They were bunqueted by the Minister of the Treasury in the most princely 4 and among the guests wore several near relatives of Gene. ral Prim’s wife, who, :ou know, is a Mexican by birth. ‘They haveulso been magnitieently entertained at the residence of the Prussian Minister, where were present eral Doblado aud other Mex.cans of distinction. They have since returned 2, very well pleased with ai! they have seen, and uccompanied by Senor Zamacona, ex-Minister of Boreign Affairs under Juarez, and now his as Secretary. era Crag op the Ist inst.,on his re- tory to the capital. Now (or thé diplomatic part proper. Fach of the allied representatives sent av ultimatuin to President Juarez, in addition to which was despatched a joint one. ‘Ihe papers here have published but one—that of Genera Prim—and | ata therefore unable to speak of the others. ‘The Spanish ultimatum, with a number of other documents (already published in the Hxratp),shoula be conjared with the proclamation of President Juar also published in the Hxravp of January 15. ‘The exp nations therein rade by the Mexican President, in re- gard to Spanish affairs, are ontirely ignored and unno ed by General Primm, as though they were untrue and orthy any comsideration. He still affects to regard the expulsion of Senor Pacheco as an insult to Spain ipsists on the fulfilment by Juarez of a treaty le with Spain by thore whom Juarez considers rebels aud usurp- ers; demands tndemnities for losses suffered by Span- jards who were aiding and abeying thore sane re- pels: aud fival'y gives four days for the payment of forty a doliars for whe bark Con copeion, bu the Mexicans when the Spaniards red off on ‘Tuz.

If the allies are acting in accord, how can one of them undertake to dictate four day oy! ur months for the doi thing, Prim dees? ‘The Spaniards, | fancy, rather overrate themselves in this Mexican matter. They still talk of Ge Prim ax Comunandor-in-Chief of the allied forces, while Prim himself, in bis prociamation to the Spanish division, and not to the allied army, speaks of himself a« Commander. in-Chief of that division, ne claims Bo other title, bt a 08 yet discovered that « , that there is very little, it any, accord, in Mexico, from the hoisting of the ove,’ down to the arrest of English Commodore Do dop, against which act, it is said, the French aud Spaivards have protested. I will recur to this preseatiy. In regard to Mexican diplomacy. letters received by the Diario de ia Marina state that President Juarez requi the withdrawal of al! the allied forces, with the exeaption of 2,000 men, and tbat ne bas indicate! Jalapa or Orizaba as the place where (he Mexican and allied Coramissioners ail assemble for consultation and decision, Theve ‘ms have heen refused by the allics in the reply which Senor Zamacona carried back tothe capital, The Diario dela Marina pate tt in this way, which is worth wot viz. “After some conferences with the most excell the Marquis de jos Castillay sioner | from Presider Juarer, | Commissioners of thi turn to the capital 80 fore the Avon (i mail steamer) satied for thie port.’ This «pes perfectly charactoristic. Little or nothing is ever said Of the French and Eugleb, who, we are led to suppose, play an altogether secondary part But how e mes it, then, that Commodore Dunlop had the temerity to arrest Miramom, the bosom friend of Spain, and ‘hat, too, without any conference with the farquis, Commander in-Chief, &e.? It is iuexplieable, but yet it was cone, Miramon went from Havana on Board the Avon, aud the mowent that stearuer anchoréd Vera Cruz an Foglish oficer went aboard, arrested he ex-Presivent and transferred him to the Challenger, froma which he bas sino» been removed the Jason for ving to escape from the former.
