Commodore Porter’s Expedition. 
The vessels of this fleet are rapidly being com¬ 
pleted, and some of them have already sailed for 
the place of rendezvous at the South, Their arma¬ 
ment has required much time, on account of its 
novel character and the necessity of experiments 
with the mortars, which are about twice as heavy as 
those used in the English service. The twenty 
heavy mortars weigh eight and a half tuns each. 
The diameter of the boro is thirteen inches. The 
total depth of tho boro is thirty-five inches—a little 
more than two and a half times its diameter. But 
the most remarkable feature in their construction 
is the thickness of the metal arouud the bore, 
which is at, every point no less than fifteen inches. 
. Tho trunnions measure fifteen inches in diameter. 
The entire length of the mortar is fifty inches, and 
the aggregate diameter forty-three inches, or more 
than three and a half loot 
The bomb shells to be thrown from the mortars 
are of tho ordinary description, resembling round 
shot, but hollow, and weighing, iwfilied,*over 200 
pounds each. Between seven and eight thousand of 
these boml»s have been furnished for the flotilla, and 
it is understood that the amount of explosive mate¬ 
rial contained in each shell exceeds twelve pounds; 
the powder having been carefully granulated 
expressly for this purpose. 
In addition to the mortar armament, each vessel 
has been provided with two “long thirty-two’s” of 
the best description of smooth-bore ordnance. 
The vessels of the morter fleet number twenty- 
one, and, with tho exception of the flag-ship, are 
sailing vessels. Nearly alt of theso are schooners of 
from one to three hundred tuns burden. Originally 
they were fitted out us war vessels, and pierced tor 
four or six guns. Steamers cannot be advantage¬ 
ously employed, the ponderous mortars necessarily 
occupying the center of the vessel, so that the posi¬ 
tion usually assigned to the engines or machinery of 
a steamer is taken up. Besides, these small vessels 
are stronger in proportion than large ones; their 
light draft, fitting them for the navigation of shallow 
water, and their small tunnage requiring compara¬ 
tively few men to manage them. Moreover, as a 
mortar vessel fights better at anchor, facility of 
movement is unnecessary. 
The adaptation of these schooners to the mortar 
service is admirable. An almost solid mass of wood 
has been built from the keel to the upper deck. 
This staunch ground-work is composed of timbers 
over one foot square, and twelve feet in length, 
interlaced and firmly fastened. Two or three inches 
above the upper deck the “bed” is biult, consisting 
of a solid horizontal surface, circular in form, with 
a “track” near its edge, upon which run rollers 
bearing a revolving platform. The great mortar 
bed is carefully braced, and supported by the entire 
strength of the vessel, so as to bear the recoil ot the 
mortar, the recoil being estimated at a force of 
seventy-five tuns. 
The fleet will bo arranged in three divisions, as 
follows: 
Flay Ship —Side wheel gunboat Octorara, Com¬ 
mander D. D. Porter, commanding. 
First Division —Lieutemiufc Watson Smith, com¬ 
manding—Norfolk Packet, flag vessel; schooners 
Oliver Lee, William Bacon, Arietta, C. P. Wil¬ 
liams, Para. 
Second Division —Lieutenant \V. W. Queen, com¬ 
manding—T. A. Ward, flag vessel; schooners Geo. 
Mangum, Adolphus Huge!, Matthew V r assar, Jr., 
Sidney C. Jones, Maria J. Carlton, Orvetta. 
Third Division —Lieutenant R. Randolph Breese, 
commanding— J. Griffith, flag vessel; schooners 
Racer, Sarah Buren, Sea Foam, (brig rigged,) 
Ilemy Jones, Dan Smith. 
The Horace Beale and J. Houghtou are also of 
the flotilla. It is understood that they will carry 
only ordnance, ordnance stores, and subsistence.

Details of flip Fort Henry Victory. 
From the editorial correspondence of the St. 
Louis Democrat, we gather the following interesting 
details of this splendid victory in Tennessee. 
Three of the gunboats bad returned to Cairo, and 
the facts were obtained from tbe officers and men 
engaged in tbe conflict. Tbe correspondence is 
dated Feb. 7th, and reads as follows: 
HOW THE ATTACK WAS COMMENCED. 
The attack was begun yesterday noon, the first 
gun being fired by the Federal fleet just after 12 
o’clock. Only four of the gunboats wore engaged— 
the Cincinnati, (the (lag-ship.) the Essex, the Caron- 
delet and the St. Louis—these moving up towards 
the fort abreast—the Conestoga, the Tyler and Lex¬ 
ington remaining behind, but within easy hail. The 
order of approach was, the Essex on the right, next 
to her the Cincinnati, then the St. Louis, and the 
Carondelet on the left. This disposition of the 
boats commends itself at once as an admirable stroke 
of Commodore Foote’s undoubted naval genius. 
The object was to bring to bear the best guns of the 
fleet, and at the same time to prevent tho exposure 
of the broadside of any of the boats to the enemy’s 
guns. Had there been such exposure, it is easy to 
imagine the destruction and probable failure which 
would have occurred, for the boats are extremely 
vulnerable in their after parts. 
This order of approach having been assumed at 
the beginning, was preserved throughout the 
engagement., the fire opening at the distance of 
about one mile, and continuing with terrible effect 
until the surrender, when the tldet was not more 
than five or six hundred yards from the tort. 
Commodore Foote, it seems, pursued the same 
tactics that rendered him s« famous in his attack 
upon the China forts a few years since, the English 
firing at a long distance, and suffering severely, 
while ho run immediately under The gnus of the 
Chinamen, and poured such a hot and effective fire 
into their wooden walls, that they inflicted but little 
damage to his boats, and were quickly and com¬ 
pletely disabled and beaten. 
General Tilghman, the rebel commander of Fort 
Henry, upon his capture} promptly testified to tho 
splendid manner in which the attack was conducted, 
saying that when 1m discovered the purpose of the 
Commodore, his Chief object was to disable the 
flag-ship, and by getting the flag-officer out of the 
way, to disconcert the other boats, and enable him 
to pursue bis firing with belter effect. This accounts 
for the hearty manner in which bis compliments 
were paid to the Cincinnati, she having received 
thirty-one shots out of about fifty, of which the whole 
fleet bear the marks. The Commodore compli¬ 
mented Gen. Tilghman upon his gallant defence of 
the fort, at the same time assuring him that ho would 
have pursued the purpose of his attack even to the 
landing of his boat at the very bank under the fort; 
and that the Cincinnati, had the fight continued, 
should have kept head ou until she was sunk. 
Another reason given by the rebel general for the 
concentration of the fire upon the flag-ship, was the 
fact that she seemed to have a better range than any 
of the other boats, and that her fire, just before the 
surrender, was most terrific. 
The Cincinnati bears many honorable scars. Sev¬ 
eral shots have left their marks upon her iron-plated 
sides, showing in each case a shallow and raking 
dent. One of Her largest guns was struck on the 
right side of its muzzle, the shot chipping out a 
piece of the metal as large as a man’s two hands, 
and actually splitting the muzzle eighteen inches 
down from the mouth. This will disable the gun 
entirely. Another gun—a thirty-two pounder, I 
Remarks.— Mean temperature for three years, 1859-18G1 is 45).4I C , only 0.3° below that of Fort Adams, R. I., in latitude 41° 29', and 0.4 C below that 
of Pittsburgh, Pa., in latitude 40’- 32' and above sea 704 feet. The water, double that in 1860, is perfectly enormous. Please compare this with, tho 
abstract given iu the third number in January.— c. d. 
her commander (Capt. W. D. Porter) and his manly 
crew, was very unlucky in this engagement. For 
half an hour she bore her part in this contest most 
gallantly, her magnificent armament playing with 
fearful effect upon the fort, when she received a shot 
immediately over the forward port gun. Capt, Por¬ 
ter, at the moment, was peering out the port hole, 
watching the effect of his tiring, and a young man 
named Brittan, son of the celebrated Dr. Brittan, of 
Now York city, was standing by his side, his hand 
on tho captain’s shoulder. The ball divided his 
head, completely carrying away its crown, and scat¬ 
tering his brains upon the person of a paymaster 
who was Handing by his side. This terrible mes¬ 
senger of death How along the ship, through the 
bulkheads which were to protect the machinery of 
the boat, and crashed into the middle boiler. Imme¬ 
diately, with a rushing sound, the scalding steam 
filled every part of the vessel. 
The two pilots, who were standing nobly at their 
work, so absorbed, as it seemed, in their duties that 
they had neglected to close the trap-door which 
leads from below to their house, were enveloped by 
the blisteringvapor, and almost immediately scalded 
to death. The tars who had stood so gallantly to 
their guns, were appalled at this new and terrible 
enemy, and many of them threw themselves out of 
the port-holes into the river. Capt. Porter was badly 
scalded on tbe face and hands. 
At this disaster the Essex was disabled, and began 
to fall back, which Commodore Foote observing, was 
for the moment perplexed. He thought first of fall¬ 
ing back with her, and by fastening to her, to bring 
her again into line, but the second thought decided 
him to let her go; and pressing more eagerly for¬ 
ward with the Cincinnati, urged on by the plain 
necessity of close and desperate fighting, bore down 
upon the fort with a fiercer front than ever, hurling 
his messengers of death and destruction so rapidly 
upon the enemy, that all resistance was useless, and 
they were compelled to capitulate. 
The St. Louis and Carondelet did splendid work, 
but did not seem to receive so much attention from 
the enemy. They are marked in several places, but 
did not lose a man. 
Commodore Foote informs me that but eleven of 
the guns of the four boats were used, and the rebel 
officers represent that, out of the seventeen guus 
with which the fort was armed, but eleven were 
brought to bear upon the boats, so (hat no advan¬ 
tage can bo claimed by either side. The guns of the 
fort were all of heavy calibre, the largest being a 
128-pounder— a beautifully finished piece, from the 
Tredegar Works, at Richmond. They had one 
rifled cannon, a 32-pounder, which burst during the 
engagement, and became useless. There guns were 
most skillfully handled, and all our officers give 
them the credit of a most gallant and determined 
defence of their fort. The rebels report but five 
lulled and eight or ten wounded. The number of 
prisoners is now stated to be fifty-four. The dispo¬ 
sition of Gen. Tilghman and statf I have already 
sent you. They will probably be sent to this place 
to-day or to-morrow. 
When tho llag of tho fort was lowered, it was not 
quite taken out of sight of the boats, ami Com. 
Foote did not know but some trick was about to be 
played upon him, so he remained quiet for a few 
minutes, waiting further demonstrations. Soon a 
small white yawl put out from the fort, containing 
two officers, and on approaching the Cincinnati was 
hailed by Master Hoel. The officers .said they 
wanted a conference with the Flag-Officer, which 
was at once granted them. One of our boats then 
put out for the Tort, containing Capt. Stcmbel of the 
Cincinnati, and Capt. Phelps of the Conestoga, 
regard it, they will now have a lively and rather 
disturbing appreciation of the effectiveness of the 
gunboat service of the West. Com. Foot*' has 
shown what it is in his power to do with but tour of 
his boats, and they bringing to bear but eleven of 
their guus. Fort Henry was, perhaps, as strong an 
earth work as any yet constructed by the rebels. It 
was mounted with 17 heavy guns, 11 of which, equal 
in calibre to those ou the gunboats, were taxed to 
their utmost in defense of the Fort, but yet, in the 
wonderfully short apace of an hour and twenty 
minutes, they were entirely silenced and surren¬ 
dered into the hands of Com. Foote. These guns, 
too, were manned by some ot the finest artillerists 
of the South, yet were insufficient. 
With this instructive lesson before their eyes, it 
would seem reasonable to conclude that not even 
in Columbus will the rebels venture to dispute the 
palm with Com. Foote when in command of his full 
fleet of twelve boats and their full armaments. If 
they make the fight, wo have a reasonable assurance 
that that place will meet the same destruction that, 
was so summarily visited upon Fort Henry. In 
this connection we may allude to a significant bit of 
information. That the wholo gunboat fleet is to be 
put in complete readiness at once, each boat in the 
late action to repair as well as she can until the 
order to move is given, which may be issued at 
any moment. 
Another important result of the Fort Henry vic¬ 
tory is the opening of the Tennessee to the army 
under Gen. Grant, and the seizure and perhaps the 
destruction of the Nashville and Memphis railroad, 
thus severing the connection between Bowling 
Green and Columbus, and threatening the rear o 
both these important points. Gen. Grant’s Division, 
including the brigade under Gen. Wallace, will 
number at least 20,000 men. To this, we learn, ad¬ 
ditions of a large character will be rapidly made. 
A regiment passed up to-day on the Empress. One 
or two more are coming down the Central Railroad 
to-night, and will be forwarded immediately. The 
railroads in Illinois, we hear, have been appropri¬ 
ated fur twelve days for the transportation of troops; 
the Quartermaster's department here is very much 
hurried, while activity and hopefulness arc noticed 
iu all army circles. 
All this is the natural and important result grow¬ 
ing out of the reduction of Fort Henry, and we may 
justly regard it as the beginning of a development 
which has for its speedy maturity either the capture 
of Bowling Green and Columbus or the evacuation 
of both—more probably the latter. The spinal 
column of the rebellion is undoubtedly broken just 
in the small of the hack, at the railroad bridge over 
the Tennessee river. The great medicine man, 
Beauregard, comes west too late for a cure. 
THE LEADERS OP THE CONFLICT. 
Commander A. H. Foote. —This officer is a 
son of the late Governor Samuel A. Foote, of 
Connecticut. Commander Foote is about fifty-five 
years of age, and entered the Navy as a Mid¬ 
shipman in 1822. llis first cruise was under Com, 
Gregory, after pirates in tho East Indies. Oil that 
cruise he was six months cruising in open boats, 
lie was at the destruction of a pirate rendezvous in 
the East Indies, these pirates having destroyed a 
Salem vessel. At that time Com. Foote was attached 
to the ship John Adams. 
Com. Footo for some three years was on the Afri¬ 
can coast, and during that time took three slavers, 
lie was also on the Chiua coast during the war 
between that power anil the allied powers of Eng¬ 
land and France. Stationed at Canton, Com. Foote 
landed from his vessel, tho Portsmouth, a marine 
force to protect the French and American factories. 
On returning to his vessel, having a missionary in 
the boat with him, the Chinese Barrier Forts fired 
at him. He displayed the American flag, hut the 
firing did not cease. Com. Foote had an interview 
with Com, Armstrong, of the Flag ,'liip San Fran¬ 
cisco. (Armstrong was the officer who last spring 
surrendered tho Pensacola Navy Yard.) Foote 
wished to “open” on the Chinese Forts; Armstrong 
thought he had better negotiate. Foote said lead 
and iron were the best peacemakers. Armstrong 
finally consented and Foote got under weigh with 
the Portsmouth and Levant, but the latter grounded. 
Foote brought his boat within seven hundred yards 
of the Forts and opened fire, continuing it until the 
Forts ceased to return his fire. Then he landed 
forces at two or three points and went at the Forts 
again. When they surrendered, Foote started on a 
run to get first inside, but Lieut, Walmough, of 
Philadelphia, being lighter, beat Foote and was 
ahead of him in entering, Foote being second in the 
race. 
Com. Foote is now Post Captain —the youngest 
of that rank in the Navy. As Flag Officer, now, ho 
ranks the same as Major-General. Coin. F. has 
been twice married; his first wife was Miss Flagg, 
of Cheshire, Conn.; his second, now residing with 
his family at New Haven, was Miss Street, of New 
Haven, Conn. 
Brigadier-Genkhal Li.ovn Tilgiiman.—T his 
rebel officer is a native of Maryland, and a 
graduate of the Military Academy at West Point, 
in tho class of 1836. Gen, TUgham was promoted a 
brevet Second Lieutenant in the First Regiment 
dragoons, July 1st, 1836, and made Second Lieuten¬ 
ant four days thereafter, but in September following 
resigned, as many of the officers of the army did 
about the same time, in order to follow the profes¬ 
sion of civil engineering, lie was division engineer 
on the Baltimore and Susquehanna)! Railroad, and 
assistant engineer in the survey of tho Norfolk and 
Wilmington Canal, of the Eastern Shore Railroad, 
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and on other 
prominent works of public improvement. On tho 
breaking out of the war with Mexico he repaired to 
the Rio Grande and served as volunteer aid-de- 
camp to Brig.-Qen. Twiggs in the battles of Palo 
Alto and Resaca de la Palma. Ho subsequently 
commanded a small volunteer artisan corps, super¬ 
intended the erection of defences atMatamoras, and, 
during the last year of his service in Mexico, was 
captain of a eompanyof lightarlilleryin the regiment 
of Maryland and District Columbia volunteers, com¬ 
manded by Col. Geo. W. Hughes. After the war he 
returned to his profession of engineering, and be¬ 
came principal assistant engineer of the Panama 
division of tho Isthmus Railroad. For some time 
past he has resided at Paducah, Kentucky, and was 
one of the earliest to take the field from that State 
in behalf of the rebel cause, baying been appointed 
Colonel. Ilia regiment, as a part of the first Ken¬ 
tucky brigade, rendezvoused at Clarksville, Tennes¬ 
see, where if, remained, undergoing thorough drill, 
until the movement of the rebel troops into Ken¬ 
tucky, when it advanced to Bowling Green, about 
the time of tho occupation of MuldroUgh’s Hill. 
Since that lime lie has been made Brigadier-General, 
and was appointed to command at Fort Henry, 
where he has been ingloriously captured. 
Roanoke Island and Fortifications. 
TnE destination of the Burnside Expedition 
was Roanoke Island, and had the cupidity of con¬ 
tractors not interfered, we would have been enabled 
to chronicle its capture two weeks ago. The fleet 
arrived at the entrance to Pamlico Sound iu due 
season, when it was ascertained that but few of the 
vessels were of as light draught as was represented, 
and sworn to by the sellers. While endeavor¬ 
ing to remedy this difficulty, our brave and hardy 
seamen and soldiers were compelled to struggle 
with the elements, and some of the most terrible 
scenes to which this rebellion has given birth, might 
have been witnessed. All this, however, did not 
check tho ardor of General Burnside, lie availed 
himself of every means to get his vessels over the 
bar, repair, as far as in his power, every disaster, 
and inspirit, the men with his own energy and 
dauntless courage. But the delay was of great 
advantage to the rebels, and they did all iu their 
power to strengthen themselves for the conflict. 
General Burnside’s force was to have been landed 
on the lower end and east side of the island, under 
the guns of the war vessels. Commodore Goldsbor- 
ough's fleet were to engage the batteries on Croatan 
Sound, at short range, while a portion of the land 
force was to have pushed to any point where the 
enemy should show himself in force. 
The object of taking Roanoke Island by the Union 
forces is to take the initiative toward seizing other 
points ou the railroad running directly south from 
Richmond, and thus effectually to cut off the sup¬ 
plies from the Southern States. If the Union troops 
have been fortunate enough to secure its capture, as 
is the rumor at present, it will put a stop to the 
inland coast, navigation of North Carolina, which 
means of transportation has been so i^setul Horn its 
safety against hostile cruisers. 
The most important object of the seizure will, 
however, be the threatening of Norfolk, and, if it is 
thought advisable to follow up the advantage, tho 
flanking of the rebel army at Norfolk. A move¬ 
ment securing Purnlieo and Albemarle Sounds, and 
thus .commanding the great Albemarle and Chesa¬ 
peake Canal and the Dismal Swamp Canal, would 
command the adjunct canal, known as the Jericho 
Canal, connecting, through Lake Drummond, with 
an important railroad junction at a town called 
Suffolk, on the Nansemond river, where tho main 
railroad route from Norfolk branches into what are 
called the Norfolk and Petersburg Railroad and the 
Seaboard and Ronnoko Railroad, thus completely 
cutting off all connection by rail or water between 
Norfolk and its surrounding country and the other 
parts of the rebel regions. 
The strategic importance of such a movement, if 
successfully made, will form one of the most impor¬ 
tant features of the war. The island is a position 
which invaluable to us, commanding, as it does, the 
Currituck Sound, which opens into Albemarle. 
Currituck is about filty miles long, ten miles wide, 
and is navigable for vessels drawing ten feet of 
water. Owing to the natural breakwater which 
protects a large portion of the coasts of North Caro¬ 
lina and Virginia, the water is as placid as a lake, 
and easily navigated. 
It has been fortified by the rebels, who have estab¬ 
Extraets from the Southern Press. 
THE Difficulties of a Rebel Envoy.—A 
Southern agent, writing from England to the Rich¬ 
mond Enquirer , describes many of the difficulties 
that ho has encountered abroad. Lie tried to pro¬ 
mote shipments of manufactures to the Southern 
ports, with a promise of onu hundred per cent 
profit, but the sturdy manufacturers said ten per 
cent, and no risk is a better business than one hun¬ 
dred per cent and extreme risk. Nothing was 
accomplished. He adds that lie has some doubts 
whether the foreign powers will recognize the Con¬ 
federacy, and assigns the following reasons: 
1st, Both England and France are strongly con¬ 
servative, and both possess important colonial pos¬ 
sessions, and they do not like to encourage revolts; 
2d, A prevalent impression that tho North and 
South would soon come together again if separated; 
3d, A fear that, in ease of recognition, the North 
would undertake the conquest of the South; 4th, 
The determination Of England to rely hereafter 
upon her own sources of supply of cotton; and 5th, 
Tho determined anti-slavery feeling among the peo¬ 
ple of both nations. Some, or all these cases united, 
he says, will long delay the much-hoped-for foreign 
intervention. 
An Amazing Change.—I n the Mobile Advertiser 
we find the usual comparative statement of the 
receipts of cotton at all the ports for the first four 
months of the “cotton year,” viz: from the first of 
Sept to the first ult. The following is the result:
