Bun bridge will be ready for the passage of trains

The sales of 10.40 bonds are exceeding expecta
tion s, and the demands recently have reached the
full ability of the ~Department to supply them.
The amcnnt of sales reported at the Department
to-day was 82, 000,150. The total amount reported
at the Departmentin the last five days is 87,400,000.
The report of the Committee on the Conduct of
the War relative to the progress, origin and results
of the expedition into Florida, commences with
the statement that on the 15th of December last,
Gen. Gillmore addressed to Gen. Halleck a pro
position to send a force to operate in that State to
recover its most valuable territory, cut off a rich
source of the enemy's supplies and increase the
Humber of colored troops.
On the 22d Gen. Halleck replied, authorizing him
(Gilimorej to undertake such operations as he
might deem best, while securing the position al
ready held before Charleston.
On January 14th Gen. Gillmore asked permis
eion to establish on the west branch of St. Olair
river, in Florida, a depot preparatory to an early
advance, and ox the fo , lowing day he wrote to the
Secretary of War in relation •to colored troops io
garrison the forts from which the troops for the ex
pedition 'were to be drawn.
On the 2.2 d of January General Halleck wrote:
4 gln regard to your proposed operations in Florida,
the Secretary replied that the matter bad been lett
entirely to your judgment and discretion with the
means at your command. As the object of the pro
posed expedition has not been explained, it Is im
possible to. judge here of its advantages or practi
cability. It it is expected to give an outlet for cot
ton or open a favorable field for the enlistment of
colored troops, the advantages may be sufficient to
i n i ih i g4WeYstirril Ci . ta.7lTl7 [ Fil i fiiel i nVl T oua u ce .
to such expeditions. If-successful, they merely
absorb our troops is garrison to occupy the places
captured, but have little or no influence upon the
progress of the war."
General Gillmore urged in reply that such an
occupation would afford an outlet to cotton, lum
ber, and other products, and prevent the rebels
from obtaining rich supplies of beef and establish
ing railroad commnrdeszion elsewhere by the
seizure and the :use of the rails of the Fernandina
and St. Mary's Railroad.. It would also obtain
colored recruits and inaugurate measures for
the speedy restoration of Florida to her alle
giance.
The only step taken by the President m this
affair seems to have been she following :
EinCreuvr. MANSION, W.A.E.E.LtIGTOIT, Jan. 13,
1964.—ilfejor-Geneta/ Gil/more: I understat d an
effort ir. being made by some worthy gentlemen to
reconstruct a loyal State government - in Florida.
Florida is in your department, and it is not un
likely that you may be there in person. I have
given Mr. Hay a COMmitgion of major, and beet
him to,yonwith some blank books and other blanks
SOMA in the reconstruction. He will explain as to
the manner -of using blanks, and also my general
TieWS on the subject. It i,s.desirable for all to en
operate, but if irreconcilable differences of opinion
.shall arise, you are master.
wish the thing done in the most speedy way
4>osEible so that when done it lie within the range
laf the isle proclamation on the subject. The detail
labOr will, of course, have to be done by others,
but I shall be greatly obliged if you will give it
such general supervision as you can find consistent
with your more strictly military duties.
It-igned) A. LINCOLN.
The expedition, numbering six or seven thou
sand men, was placed by Gen. Gillmore under the
command .of Gen. Seymour, and Rear Admiral
Dahlgren furnished three gunboats. Particulars
Of these operations are given, which have bees
substantially communicated to the press hereto
fore. After. Gen. (ill more, who had accompanied
life expedition, had returned to Hilton Head, he
received a despatch from the commanding gene
ral, desiring that a diversion might be made against
Savannah, to prevent the sending of relief to the
rebel forces In Florida. Gen. Gillmore immedi.
ably despatched Gen. Turner, his chief of staff,
with orders to fall back.
A terrible storm prevented this order from
reaching Jacksonville till the battle of 01119 tee was
raging. Turner was in communication with Gen.
Seymonr,'but deemed it expedient to witthhold
the order during the engagement. The remainder
-of the report. shows that oar forces were less than
those of the rebels, who had the advantage of
- position In improvised intrenchments of logs,
rifle-pits, etc. Gen. Seymour is secure in his
present position, having been reinforced. Geri.
Turner's testimony concerning the colored troops,
is -that they beh..ved about as well as the white
troops. The Ist North Carolina colored regiment
supported Captain Elder's battery. The Captain,
who had been in more than thirty engagements in
the Army of the Potomac, said he had never seen
troops light better than that regiment of colored
troops.

March 16.
A friend who traveled with Gen. Robert E. Lee
on his way down from Gordons vilie to Richmond,
says he has a very hale and vigorous appearance,
and looks as though there were a dozen or more
good campaigns in him yet. 'He is a man of fine
commanding appearance, six feet or upwards in
height, .and weighs probably the rise of one hun
dred and eighty. But for his white beard, which
he wears entire, but trimmed short,.and his silver
hair, he would be comparatively a young looking
man, barely more than in the prune of life. The
-General is•affable, polite and unassuming, and
shares the discomforts of a rai'road coach with or
dinary travelers. He travels without a staff* or
other attendant. He is first to rise and offer his
seat to ladies,'lf any difficulty occurs in seating
them. He talks freely of affairs generallY,but had
little to - say concerning the army and the coun
try. At one stilton where an eiger crowd were
gazing at him, he modesty remarked: 44 1 sup
pose these people are Speculating as to 'what is on
foot now." He speaks quickly, sometimes
binsquely, and with the tone of one who is aeons;
turned to command. His countenance is one indi
cative of firmness and decision of character, with
rather more absence of that mild and benevolent
caste than his habitual tolerance and amiability
would' lead one to expect. He looks the stern sol
dier. , The General is as unostentatious and unas
suming in dress as he is in manners. He wears a
colonel's coat, (three stars without the wreath,) a
good deal faded, blue pantaloons, with top-boots,
blue cloth calms, and 'a high left hat, without
adornment save a small cord around the crown."--
Charleston Courier.
The Conner says of the iron-clad' recently
winched at Charleston:
The Ashley has been built, finished and launched
under a, heayy_ fire, the enemy having been in
formed of the location of the boat by deserters.
Great credit is due to Mr. Jones, who'has perse

Brigadier-General Slough has issued the follow
