the LOSS OF the HOUSATONIO.
__ . Tja-y vark Ti mes this morning. J
{From the New Y from Port Royal on
The steamship Fniwn. xr New YorJC , Ml
Wednesday last ’, r , f “r„ation of a sad reverse to
General Seymour, in Flo-
gve details, becauseatorthe
Fulton had put out in o Quartermaster, with
from to deprive the passen
nriv'ate letters in their possession,
gers of all priv correspondent of the 2Wes,
Thus tlie jetwr o f pnrpo !.’
jjho and who liad inclosed a
4°artSlHst of the killed and wounded, amounting
hundred names, was seized and retained
the next mail—a week hence. The cruelty
of ffiis short-sighted proceeding, considering the
anxiety ol relatives and friends, is evldont. Gen.
eiliore’s despatches were sent on, and will
doubtless soon be made public.
To a passenger by the Fulton we are indebted for
thefollowing main facts of the battle:
On the afternoon of the 29th, our troops, under
/ten. Seymour, met the enemy, 15,0uu strong,
flftv-five miles beyond Jacksonville and eight
miles beyond Sanderson, on the line if the Jack
sonville and Tallahassee Kailrond. The battle was
desperately fought during three honrs, and at sun
set our forces, overpowered by numbers, retired to
Sanderson, taking with them the greater part of
Connecticut, 7th New Hampshire, 10th
Massachusetts, 48thand 150th New York and 3th
United States were engaged. ■ Col. Fnbley, of the
Bth United States, was left dead on the field.
Colonel Reed, a Hungarian officer, was mortally
prAnttrifid.
- All the officers in Hamilton's Battery were
wounded. Oapt. Hamilton (wonnded in the arm)
and Lieut, Myrick (wonnded in the foot) are at
Gen. Gillmore’s headquarters at Hilton Head.
• Col. Guy Henry, of the 40th Massachusetts, had
three horse 3 shot under him, but escaped unhurt.
The Cosmopolitan arrived at Beaufort on Mon
day evening with 240 oi the wounded. Col. Reed
among them, who was living when the Fulton
left, on Wednesday.
The enemy’s loss is not known. They captured
fire guns. ** ,
It is supposed that the troops were from Bragg’s
army Gen. Hardee himself was on the field,
Paving come to Florida on a visit to his family, and
also to form a second marriage. ■ .
Out loss Is variously estimated at from 500 to
1 300 *
’seventy-eight rebel prisoners were brought by
the Fulton. The Fulton’s passage was remark
ably abort and pleasant-, a striking contrast to the
understand that the Purser of thoFnlton has
a list of the killed and wonnded, which he will
show* but will not allow it to be copied.
Thomas McManus, Esq., Purser of the Fulton,
sends ns the following particulars of the destruc
tion of the Housatonic: J _ .
The following intelligence was received at Port
Boyal. S. C., from the blockading fleet ot Charles
ton, announcing the loss of the Sloop-of-war Hon- I
satonic, Capt. Pickering, on Thursday, the ISth
inst., at 9 o’clock, P. M. The circumstances are
said to he as follows:
The watch on deck, perceiving something floating
with the current, which to him, at first, resembled a
porpoiße, reported the same to the, officer of the
decK, whereupon Capt. Pickering was notified, and
he being suspicious of the object, immediately gave
orders to slip the cable and get underway, which
order was put into execution. But ail to no pur
pose, for the rebel-propelled torpedo Dads (the
New Ironsides * old friend), struck her on the star
board quarter, and in a short Bpace of time Bhe sunk
off Beach Inlet.
Two officers and three men were lost; the re
mainder of the officers and crew were saved by
clinging to the rigging until rescued by the boats
of the fleet.
C. O. Muzey, Captain’s clerk, and Mr. Hazle
ton, Ensign, are the officers lost.
A recent letter speaking of this torpedo, says:
“The submarine affair, they say, came out of
Beach Inlet a week ago, intending to attack the
Wabash, but she sunk when on the passage and
drowned all hands. She was raised the succeed
ing night and towed in again. This makes the
third time that she has sunk and drowned all
hands. ”
AN ADVANCE TOWARD S AVANS AH.
Mr. McManus also furnishes the following:
On Sunday last, i2lst mst., a small force of
troops,- under the command of Colonel Howell,
left Hilton Head in transports, and proceeded np
the Savannah River to Williams Island. Arriving
at that place about dark, a company of men under
Capt. Greenleaf, of the 4th New Hampshire,
landed in small boats, and made areconneissance,
in the course of which they met a small body of
the enemy u anda sharp.musketry firing ensued.
We had four men of the 85th Pennsylvania Vo
lunteers wounded.
The enemy’s loss greatly outnumbered ourown.
Monday morning Col. Howell withdrew his
force, arriving at Hilton Head Monday night, Feb.
22, bringingwith him 20 of the rebels which his
men captured on the island.
The reconnissance was highly successful, and
reflects much honor upon those who participated
in it. • ;
The United States steam transport Gen. Burn
side grounded on St. Johns Bay, and became a
total wreck.i Crew all saved.
The Quartermaster’s steamboat Harriet A.
Weed, while proceeding up the St. John’s Hirer,
grounded. She was blown up by her crew to pre
vent her falling into the hands of the enemy.

THE GREAT
CENTRAL EAIR,
FOR THE
Sanitary Commission,
Philadelphia, 1307 Chestnut Street.
The undersigned, members of the Executive
Committee of the GREAT CENTRAL FAIB for
the , Sanitary Commission, beg to invite the co-ope
ration of all their fellow-citizens, especially of
those resident in Pennsylvania, Delaware and
New Jersey, in this important enterprise. It is
proposed to hold the Fair in Philadelphia, in the
FIRST WEEK IN JUNE NEXT, and it is con
fidently expected that the contributions', coining,
from a popula ion so benevolent and patriotic as
that which inhabits the Central States, and repre
senting the most important and varied branches of
industry and art, will secure a result in aid of the
funds of the Commission, and for the benefit of
the Soldier, at least equal to that which has at
tended similar undertakings in other cities. It
is not necessary to say a word to stimulate sym
pathy for the soldier. We feel for them all a 3
brethren, and the popular heart seeksjonly the
best mode of manifesting that sympathy in the
most efficient and practical way. . fairs in
other places have been productive of gTeat results
By this means Chicago has recently raised for thig
object 360,000, Boston 8150,000, and Cincinnati
more than $200,000. We appeal, then,; with the
greatest confidence to the inhabitants of the Cen
tral States, especially to those who constitute the
gTeat industrial classes, to send as contributions
the productions of their skill and workmanship.
We appeal to them in the interest of no party,
radical or conservative, Republican or Democratic,
Administration or anti-Administration. We know
only this, that to send our national soldiers in the
field supplies to supplement those Goverment un
dertakes to give them, but which they sometimes
fail to receive, and thus to relieve them when sick
and in misery, is a work of Christian charity, and
that it Is a work of intelligent patriotism also, as
economizing their life, health and efficiency, on
which, under God, the nation depends in this its
time ol trouble.
We therefore ask every clergyman to announce
this humane undertaking to his people, and to ad
vise them to do what they can to further it. We
ask the press to give it the widest publicityand the
most earnest encouragement. We call on every
workshop., factory and mill for a specimen of the
best thing it can turnout; on every artist, great
aud small, for ono of his creations ; on all loyal
women, for the exercise of their taste and indus
try ; on fanners, for the products of their fields
and dairies. The miner, the naturalist, the man
of science, the traveler, caneacl} send something
that can at the very least be converted into a
blanket that will warm, and may save from death,
some one soldier whom government supplies have
failed to reach. Every one who can produce any
thing that has money value is invited to give a
sample of his best work as an offering to the cause
of national unity. Every workingman, mechanic
or farmer, who can make a pair of shoes or raise a
barrel of apples, is called on to contribute some
thing that can be turned into money, and again
from money into the means of economizing the
health aud the life of oor national soldiers.
Committees have been appointed in each depart
ment of industry avd art, whose business it will
be to solicit contributions for the Fair, each in its
own special branch. *1 hese Committees will place
thetrselves in couununia&iion with those persons
who may wish to aid us. In the meantime it is
recommended thatlocal committees or associations
should be formed in every portion of Pennsylva
nia, Delaware and New Jersey, withaTiewo*
organizing the industry of their respective neigh
borhoods, so as to secure contributions for the
Fair.
Committee* of Ladies have also been organized
to co opeiate with those of the gentlemen in tcii-
citing contributions.
A list of all these Committees will be shortly
published and distributed. In the meantime those
who are disposed to aid ns, or who may desire any
farther information on the subject, are requested
to address CHARLES J.STILLE, Corresponding
