Here were feuna the Seneca, Wissahickon and Dawn close- ty guarding the avenues to the sea, and cargo of cotton, and up and heavily arming ber as a privateer, with the intention of fighting her way out and joining the Alabama and Florida in their @estructive cruises against our commerce. This report was certainly a startling one, especially when it was addi- tionally reported thas the Fingal or an iron-clad was to ome down from Savannah to aid her im destroying @ur blockading ficet and in giving her free access te the sea. About this time she passed from the ‘Vernon into the Big Ugeechee river, and anchored above Fort McAllister. Heavier vessels were immedi- ately seut to Ossabaw to thwart this scheme, so full of destruction and desolation to our unprotected commerce. Fortunately the Monitors Montauk and Passaic arrived ebout this time, and the former was despatched w Ussa- ‘baw, while the latter was ordered to Warsaw Sound. ‘The Montauk, Captain Worden, immediately ran well ‘ap the Ogeechee, and took her position at a point where ahe was out of range of Fort McAllister, and the Seneea, ‘Wissahickon and Dawn, with the mortar schooner C. P, ‘Williams, laid below, effectually closing the river to the Nashville, After the first attack on Fort McAllister by ‘the Montauk, supported by the gunboats, the Nashville ‘was towed up the river several miles and covered with onghs, to convey the impression that all ideas of at- ‘tempting to run out bad becn given up, and that she was “laid up for tho season.” ‘This rase was too transparent to induce the blockading fleet to remit for a moment their vigilaut watch, and tho ‘would-be privateer gained nothing for the trouble, as events will prove. Ou Friday afternoon Inst a tremendous column of dense ‘Dlack smoke was seen up the river, and it was quite ap- parent that the Nashville was steaming down towards Fort McAllister. Her spars wee subsequently seen; but aight came on before she had reached a point where her hull couid be discerned. It was evident that she was coming down te attempt to escape under cover of a dense fog which enveloped everything, making it imporsible to gee a ship’s length. Under cover of this fog and darkness she came within a short distance of the fort, avd above ft,and then ran aground.

Our Hilton Head Corres struction of the Rebel Steamer Nashville, dc.,dc., de. Commander Worden, of the Montauk, has added another glorious achievement to his list of successes. He has burned, blown up and completely destroyed the rebol steamer Nashville, thus accomplishing the purpose for which big vessel was sent to the Ogeechee river. This event, so gratifying to us and so damaging to the rebels, occurred on the morning of Saturday last. During the afternoon of Friday, while the Montauk and several wooden vessels were lying some two miles below Fort McAllister, the Nasbville was seen to move slowly from her anchorage and assume. position just béyond ‘the work which has for several months afforded its pre- tection to the privateer. As nightcame on, and she re- mained in her new position, it began to be believed on board the Montauk that the Nashville was aground; and @ reconnoissance under cover of the darkness proved the surmises to be correct. At the earliest dawn the Montauk weighod anchor and steamed boldly up to the obstructions, and within seven hundred yaras of Fort Mo- Allister. The Nashville was still further up the stream, and between her and the Montauk was a poict of low, marshy land, the trees upon which partially bid ber from view. First firing three shells to enable him to get the exect range of the Nasbville, Commander Worden sent one of hia fifteen-inch “rotten shot’ fairly into the middle of the steamer. Its explosion set the vessel im- mediately on fire. Another shell was fired from Worden’s big gun, and the flames speedily burst out im a second place. A third shell proved . A rifled two- hundred-pounder gun which the Nashville carried for- ward was heated by exploded. Soon aiter the devouring element reached the terrific explosion f{ shaking the very bed of the river cussion. Nashville fell adout ber very gates of Kava:.nah, 1t would be unnecessary to descant upon the pegs which must accrue to us from the destruction of 1 NushVille. How successfully she ran the blockade time after time, bow as a privateer she created consterna- tion and alarm among loyal sbippers in the Northern States; how she eluded the vigilance ef the Union crui- sers; how she eseaped from the Keystone State, after a forty hours’ chase between Wilmington’ and Abaco; how she got inte Savannab with @ cargo almost priceless, and how, month after month, she has lain secure behind the rebel battories at Genesis Point—all this is known to the readers of the Hxra.p,.in which the foregoing events have been from time to time duly chronicled. Luckily she has been destroyed. To the man who disabled the Merrimac, who saved our navy from destruction in Hampton Roads a year ago, who bas lain day after day under the pitiless firc of Fort McAllister, who is, in fact, the hero of the navy, belongs the credit of destroying the Nashville, The country will not be slow, I trast, to re- bis merits. insane idea prompted the Nashville to come down point where she met her deserved fate must of course remain conjectural, It may be that the rebels believed their own falsehood, and that, hi quently boasted in their own journ: disabling the Yankee iron clads, they & power i¢ss opponent.

Not more than eight missiles’ struck her invulnerable turret. Commander Worden utterly disregarded their fire, leaving the gunboats which had accompanied him up the river to anawer i in their own manner. They, too, were uninjured. Letter from Mr. Dudley Field. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. In an article of your paper published this morning apon the late war meeting in this city, after stating that ‘all united in a resolute determination to continue the war till the insurrection is subdued, and to postpone the settie- ment of their differences till after the achievement of that consummation,” you observe that I “went further, and counselled the postponement even of criticism on the conduct of the war.” This isa misapprebension. In the few words which I spoke on that occasion, I dia not say anything which should be thus understood.
