DESTRUCTION OF REBEL SALT WORKS.
"Washington, March 16,—Tbe following have
been received at the Navy Department:
United States Flag-Ship Dale, Key West,
March G, lSf4.—ife-n. Gi4esn Welles, Secretary
of the Nary—Sir: I have the honor to
report that two expeditions have recently been
fitted out from the United States steamer Tahoma
for the destruction of the extensive saltworks,
ihe property of the rebel Government, in the
neighborhood ol St. Marks, Fla.
Ihe first expedition left the ship on the morning
of the 17th of February in two detachments, one
under command of Acting Master E. C. Weeks,
and the other in charge of Acting Ensign J. G.
Koehlen. The salt works being some seven miles
in extent, the first detachment commenced at one
end of the line, tbe other at tbe other. A day and
a night of unremitting labor was spent m the work
of destruction, when the expedition returned
safely to the vessel ; having marched through
swamps and dense woods a distance of forty miles,
and successfully accomplished the object of the
undertaking.
On the 27th, a week later, a second expedition
was planned and carried through with equal suc
cess, the object beingto destroy some Government
works at Goose Creek, some ten miles distant.
This party was, in this case also, in charge of
Acting Master .Weeks, and the works to be de
stroyed were under the protection of a rebel ca
valry company, whose pickets the expedition
succeeded in eluding. Twelve prisoners were
brought off, one the captain of an inf&niry com
pany raised for coast service.
The works destroyed by these two expeditions
produced for the Confederates twenty-four hun
dred bushels of salt per diem. I enclose herewith
liient.-Commander Harmsny’s list, forwarded to
me, of the articles captured and destroyed. Very
respectfully, THEODORUS BAILEY,
Actingßear Admiral Com’gE. G. B. Squadron.
LIST op rebel government property db-

value of the above property to the rebels cannot be
less ihan 5*2,000.000 That is the value put upon it
by the most intelligent refugees.

LATE FROM THE SOUTH.
THE RECENT AFFAIR AT SUFFOLK.
Additional particulars of the fight at Suffolk last
Wednesday, show that it was a perfect rou: of the
finemy. General Ransom advanced on the town
atom 1C o’ clock in the morning and ebasea in the
negro pickets. A regiment of negro cavalry was
stationed in the town, which dismounted alter the
tlrsi fire and scattered in ail directions Mauy
wt-re killed in the streets. Several took refuge in
a b» use in tbe eastern part of the place, and re
fusing to surrender, tbe bouse was fired. One got
out during the burning, discharged his market at
our men as he came out. He was instantly killed.
The three who remained were consumed in the
flames. The negroes were pursued to Jericho
bridge, which they tore up alter crossing. The
whole affair seems to have been a race for life on
tte part of the “Colored United States Cavalry. **
Tbe camps and quartermaster stores wrre le
stroyed. Several ot tne negroes who enlisted in
were cut down at the very doors of their
foimer masters. On Thursday morning a large
force ot Yankees came up, and some skirmishiug
took place tbis side of Suffolk. Our whole loss m
the affair was three men. The enemy lost about
