    TEE WAR FOR THE UNION,
TILE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC.
WasurserroN, April 23. —Advioes from the Army
of the Potomac to-day state that the 2d Corps, Maj.
Gen. Hancock commanding, was reviewed yester
day by Generals Grant and Meade.
There is a general impression in this city that ac
tive movements in Virginia will not be much longer
delayed by the armies on both sides. Rumors pre
vailed to-day in relation_ to Warrenton, Va. , but
they axe entitled to small credit, as that our troops
merely fell back a few miles from that vane for
proper purposes.
Gen. Burnside is in Washington.
THE ATTACK ON PLYMOUTH
• WA6HINGTON, April 23.—TheNavy Department
has received the following information of the de
struction of the Southfield. About 5: 30 P.M., April
17th, Fort Gray, above Plymouth, was attacked
by the rebels from a battery of six field pieces, on
a sand bank some thousand yards up the river.
Lieut. Commander Flusser despatched tile Ceres
to communicate with the Whitehead, which was
doing picket duty up the river. In passing by the
rebel battery she received a shot through her port
gangway, killing two and wounding seven men.
The firing on the fort ceased about nine o' clock,
and the Ceres returned at that time. At early dawn
on Monday the enemy charged upon• Fort Gray and
von) repulsed. The Bombshell, an army gunboat,
in command of acting Ensign Thomas B. Stones,
steamed up the river to communicate with Fort
Sherman, and sunk at the wharf.
Later iu the day the enemy appeared in force in
the rear of the town, and at sunset commenced a
vigorous. ttack on Fort William and Fort Wes
sell, at which time the Miami and Southfield, pre
viously 'chained together. were cast loose. The
Southfield steamed up the river to protect Fort
Wessell, while the Miami dropped down and
shelled the enemy in front of Fort William.
During the evening the enemy assaulted Fort
Wessell and were repulsed three times, the South.
field throwing shell among them About 10.30 P.
M. the Southfield dropped down the river and re
potted to Lieutenant-Commander Flusser, who
ordered the vessels to be lashed together with haw
sers, the Southfield being on the port side of the
Miami.
About midnight the Whitehead came down the
Cachie, came alongside of the Miami and reported
the tam coming down.
At 3 o'clock A. M. on Tuesday the ram dropped
down alongside the Miami,
under cover of a shade
of trees, and, when near, the ram went obliquely
across into the starboard bow of the Southfield.
The vessels had been firing all the previous even
ing at the enemy on shore, and were loaded with
shell, which there was not time to withdraw.
Lieutenant Flusser fired the first shell, and, on its
bursting, some fragment, either from that or the
Southfield's shells, rebounded, the fragments
piercing his chest, face and skull, which caused
his death; also wounding the following officers and
mien: Acting Ensign Thomas G. Harris, Acting
Third Assistant Engineers Harrington and Lowe,
and six or eight men, none mortally.
Upon the approach of the rain the Southfield
fired at her, but the prow of the ram running into
the Southfield, caused her to fill with water, and
she sank inside of fifteen minutes. The forward
lashings were parted by the pressure of the ram
between our vessels, and the after ones were cut,
and as many as could get on the Miami did so;
when the Miama returned, and was fired at a short
distance by the ram, the speed of which was
considered slow, making but four knots per
Lour The Miama threw solid shot at her as she
retired.
Some of the men of the Southfield took to the
mall boats, and were picked up by the Whitehead
Ord Ceres. The Ceres was despatched to New
born immediately with the body of Flusser. The
officers missing on the Southfield were Acting
Master William B. Newman, Acting Ensign Thos.
B. Stokes, ActingiSecond Assistant Engineer Win.
Y. Goff, Acting Third Assistant John A. Strieby,
Acting Master's Mate George W. Pratt, and Pay
master, s Clerk George W. Brown.
Some of the officers and men of the Southfield
may have been captured, but most have escaped;
few or none were probably lost. The Miami is un
injured.
The ram is thought not to have used her gnu
whilst under the bows of the Miami and Southfield
nor could our guns then bear on her. The shell
bred at her was when she approached:
NawnErtir, April 20. —The ram now commands
the approach to Plymouth, which prevents us
reinforcing oar troops, who have been fighting
day and night since Sunday. gen. Wessell, who
has sixty days' provisions, expresses a determina
tion to hold the enemy at bay until relieved. He
and the troops are in good spirits.
The enemy has rude many assaults on our
works of a most desperate character, and ha. been
repulsed with severe loss each time. Our loss is
very slight; every house in Plymouth is riddled
by the enemy's shells, the inhabitants having been
sent to Roanoke Island. The ram now has all the
inland waters of North Carolina open to her, and
we know not where she may strike the next
blow.
Firing was heard all that morning in the direc
tion of Washington, and it is supposed an attack
en that point has commenced. General Peck or
dered reinforcements to Plymouth the moment he
received news of the attack, but they doubtless
tailed to reach that place, owing to the presence of
the ram at the month of the Roanoke Raver.
The death of Captain Flusser leaves Captain
French, an officer of tried courage, in command of
the naval force. He is watching the movements
of the ram, and will give her all the annoyance in
his power until assistance arrives. Gen. Picket
is In command of the rebel forces engaged at Ply
mouth
There is Quite a force at Kingston, which, it is
believed, intends an attack on tils point, in con
nection with their ram "No. 2," now at Kings
ton.
Longstreet's Cavalry have joined Lee ip Vir •
gnats, and the rest at his force is on the way`to the,
same place. Some of them, however, are reported
at Weldon.
Many women and children are leaving Newbern
for Beaufort. The firemen and citizens are or
dered to be in readiness at a moment's notice to
meet the enemy.
FROM THE RED RIVER.
ST. Louls, April 24.—The Repub/ican's Red ri.
ver correspondence of the 13th inst., says that
General Smith's command began crossing the river
opposite Grand Ecore, on that day, for an over
land trip to Vicksburg, it being understood that
Gen. Grant had sent orders for General Smith's
return tothat place.
The rebel prisoners say that they had twenty.
flue thousand men in the'recent battles, and that
they lost three thousand in Saturday's tigt t. They
lett their killed and wounded on the field. Our
loss on Saturcry was about fifteen hundred. Our
'wounded were taken to Grand Ecore. The killed
were left on the field, but reported as afterwards
buried by the cavalry.
General Smith's command consisted of the Six
teenth and Seventeenth Army Corps, under Gen.
Murnint and Gen. McPherson.
The correspondent says great dissatisfaction is
expressed at Gen. Banks' s generalship. Friday's
battle was fought contrary to Gen. Franklin's
plane, and both Gen. Franklin and Gen. Ransom
protested against having the cavalry so far in the
advance.
Gen. Smith also protested against this, and
against the retreat from Pleasant Hill after the
victory of Saturday, he wishing to pursue the
fleeing rebels, but Gen. Banns ordered the return
of the entire army to Grand Ecore. It is difficult
to determine what will be the result of the expedi
tion, as it will require some time io reorganize the
army, and if the river continues to fall Alexandria
Will of necessiq become the base of operations, in
stead of a point above.
Alithe forces at Alexandria have been ordered
to Grand Ecore, and fears are entertained that
the rebels may attack the former place. and dhstroy
the large amount of army stores now there.
Advices from Alexandria say that all the specu
lators have been excluded from that post, and
that the military authorities will conduct all the
trade, sending all the cotton and sugar to New Or.
leans and zell it on Government account. The par
ties proving their loyalty will be reimbursed.
The gunboats Necosha, Louisville and Chilico
the are aground above Grand Ecore.
The Eastport and Mound City have been ordered
Cut of the river, in consequence of the falling wa
ter, and the Ozark has been ordered to Mobile.
Qapt. Todd, formerly the rebel Provost Marshal
Of Alexandria. a cousin to Mrs. Lincoln, has come
into our lines with his family and given himself

The rebels are said to have thirty-one transports
at ShreT eport.

FROM WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, April 24 —General Butler
have command of all the troops in his Department,
and will take command in the field when mat
ters are in a proper state.
There is a rumor that our pickets on the Occo
quan had a skirmish yesterday with rebel guerillas
and captured a major and several privates.
The oral arguments against the extension of the
Goodyear India Rubber Patent, were made yes
terday, before the House Committee on Patents. by
Horace Day, of New York, who was accorded half
the time allowed by the Committee, and by Abra
ham Payne and J. H. Parsons, of Rhode Island;
Tappan Wentworth,nf Massachusetts, and E. S.
Day, of Connecticut, in behalf of the manufactu
rers, one of the counsel representing the railroads,
and by George Griscom of Philadelphia, who rep
resents the railroad and manufacturer and dealers
of Pennsylvania. Earnest remonstrances have
been presented against the extension by the Gov
ernors and members of the Legislatures of Penn
sylvania and New York, and nearly all the rail
roads of the United States, and many citizene.
The Committee will sit again to-morrow to hear
arguments in support of the application. Mach
solicitude on this subject is here manifested, owing
to the immense•pecuniary ann manufacturing in
terests involved.
Great inconvenience and injury to the public ser
vice having arieen from the failure or refusal of
teamsters and other employes of the quartermas
ter's department to go to the front and other points
when so required, it bas been ordered by the War
Department that hereafter any employe who fails
or refuses to obey any such orders shall forfeit all
pay and allowances which may be due to him, and
will also be liable to arrest and trial before a mili
tary tribunal for disobedience of orders, according
to the sixteenth article of war;

[Correspondence of the N. Y. Herald.]
HILTON HEAD, S. C., April 17, 1864.—0 n
Thursday last, the 14th inst., Pilatka was eva
cuated by our troops, and everything of value
carried off.
The movement was effected while a diver
sion was being made by Major Stevens, of the
Independent battalion of Massachusetts cavalry
out towards Gainesville, where the enemy were
in force. Major Stevens's command consisted
of his battalion, a section of James's Rhode
Island battery, and Captain Shaw's company of
the 115th New York mounted troops. It
encountered the rebel pickets between
eight and nine mile hummocks, or swam,
a few miles out of Pilatka, and engaged them
sharply. As they fell back and increased their
numbers James's guns were brought into play,
and the enemy treated to a vigorous shelling,
Which induced them to fall back upon their re
serves. Major Stevens procured a good posi
tion'
and had quite a brisk little engagement
with the rebels,
entertaining them while Col.
Barton was embarking his men and material on
the steamers Dictator, Delaware, Mary Benton
and General Hunter. Everything was safely
placed on shipboard, and at the prpper time
Major Stevens's command was brought in, and
emharked under the guns of the Ottawa, Lieu
tenant Commander Breese; and the armed tug
Harriet A. Weed, belonging to the army. A
portion of the provisions was landed at Picola
ta. The transports arrived at Jacksonville in
safety.
On the 19th the steamers Cosrnopolitan and
General Hunter were sent to Picolata to bring
down the provisions left there the previous day.
The steamers were loaded and started down the
river towards their destination. The Cosmo
politan came through safely ; but the General
Hunter, while passing Buckle's Bluf, about
twelve miles above Jacksonville, encountered a
torpedo, which exploded under her bow and
blew the forward part of the hull to fragments.
She sunk in less than three minutes, carrying
down with her the q'uartermaster at the wheel,
who was undoubtedly injured by the explosion,
and a heavy load of commissary and quarter
master's stores, which will prove a total loss.
The officers and crew, with the exception of
the man in the pilot house, took to their boats
and reached Jacksonville safely, but in their
night clothes.
The General Hunter was a river steamer,
built by Captain DeGroot for .some party who
sells steamers to the .government, and who is
supposed to engage in that business for profit.
The General Hunter was bought by the govern
ment for $62,000, and was specially designed
as the flagship for Major General Hunter then
commanding the department. On the way
down she encountered a gale and was badly
used up. Uncle_ Sam paid $lO,OOO to repair
her, and she finally reached this port. As the
ports in this department happened to be on the
coast, and only to be communicated with by
vessels going outside, the General Hunter did
not prove to be exactly the boat needed by the
Major General. He did not take her, but se
lected a more suitable craft. She is now de—
stroyed, and a tolerably decent boat lost to the
government. If the United States desire to
pay a round sum for pasteboard boats, and to
have them used up at an early day, let them
duplicate the General Hunter.
The spot where the General Hunter was lost
is only a short distance from the wreck of the
Maple Leaf; sunk by a torpedo a short time
since. Out of the eight torpedoes planted :by
the rebels near Buckle's Bluff, two were ef
fective. The others are supposed to be in our
hands.
Two deserters , . named Henry Schumaker,
Company C, and Henry Stork, Company E,Gth
Connecticut Volunteers, were shot to-day in
obedience of orders from headquarters. They
met their death with great composure and
firmness in the presence of all the troops at
this post. A third culprit, sentenced by the
same court martial, escaped the same fate by a
clerical error. His name was spelt ccHoffman"
in the records of the court martial, and the
order carrying out the sentence; bat fortu
nately for him his name on the company rolls
was spelt "Hoofan." No Hoffman was found,
and it was not thought just to shoot Hoofan in
his stead. So Hootan goes free, so - Tar as the
first trial is concerned.
The correspondent of the Times writes :
On the'l3th inst., the anniversary of the cap.
tare of Fort Sumter by the rebels, thirteen
mortar-shells were Bred from that ilapidated
structure at Forts Gregg and Chatfield. No,
damage was sustained by us. Fort Gregg
opened a lively fire in reply, which had the ef
fect of silencnig the enemy's mortars.
On Morris Island over one hundred tons of
iron, consisting of' broken guns, fragments of
shells'and unexploded shells, have been gath
ered in a heap .at the ordnance depot.. The
quantity would be greatly hugsaented, if the

IMPORTANT FROM BT. DOMINGO.
By way of Turks Island we have news from
St. Domingo, dated at St. Domingo City, the
21st, and Porto Cabello, the 80th of March.
The death of General Florentine, the revo
lutionary hero of Azna, is confirmed. It is
stated that *hen the Spanish commander,
Rondon, condemned him to be shot, he begged
time to say his prayers, which request was re
fused, Rondon at the same time making this
sarcastic remark: cc You did not allow such a
privilege to the one hundred and forty-Eve you
murdered; now die as they did, without time
to say your prayers."
On the 21st'of March the Spanish garrison of
Porto Plata made a sally on the Dominican
outposts, and were repulsed with considerable
loss. Forty-seven litters were seen to have
been carried into Ihe fort, and a steamer left
the harbor the next day for Cuba, with the
wounded. The attack appears to ave been
unpremeditated.
It is reported, and believed to be correct,
the Spanish have evacuated their canton
ments at Guanumo and Monte Plata, and re
treated into the city of St. Domingo.
The Juzgnade de Marina (Court of Admiral
ry), St. Domingo city; under date of March 9,
has declared the schooner Rapid -(supposed to
be an American vessel) to be a lawful prize to
the Spanish steamer-of-war Africa, which cap
tured her near Monte Christo harbor on the Bth
of February last.
On the 12th of March the same court con
demned the Haytien sloop which was captured
near Manzanilla bay, on the 27th of December
last, by the war steamer Don Antonio de Mica.
The Captain General of St. Domingo, Don
Carlos de Vergas, has issued an ordinance
(bando), dated March 19, declaring that the real
estate of those Dominicans who are engaged in
the revolutionary movement shall be confisca
ted ; it is also ordered that their property, as
well as that of loyal citizens who are under the
control of the so-called rebel authorities, shall
be managed (adminisfrar) by the boards of al
dermen and municipal councils of the respective
districts in which said property is situated.
By act fourth of the bando it is ordered that
the net proceeds, or the rents, of such real es
tates, belonging to the enemies of the govern
ment, shall be used for charitable purposes by
the municipal authorities, as in their judgment
they shall deem best.
Preparations for the expedition to Monte
Christo are going on with activity. The Dom
inican officers in the Spanish employ at the
city have been ordered to hold themselves in
readiness to embark at the shortest notice.
A steamer has been sent to Venezuela for a
lead of mules, and four more steam men-of
war had recently arrived at the city to take
part in the expedition.
A "SEANCE" WITH SPIRITS AT THE TrILE
RIES.-A few nights ago a very distinguished
party vas assembled at the Tuileries amusing
themselves by making connections with the
mighty dead. They called for a mixed supply
of spirits; among others, by the bye, and out
of compliment to Lord X--, "Tommy
Moore," but as, when askkd how to spell his
name, the poor ghost spett \ it-with one '•o," he
was pronounced to be an\ adulterated spirit, and
sent back With disgrace Let us summon
my great uncle," suggested a very great per
son, The spirit came widen he was called.
"What do you think of your nephew?" was the
question. Suddenly there were fire knocks on
the table, and it ran away on 'its castors to the
other side of the saloon. I leave to the imagi
nation of your readers the effect of this magic
performance, as 1 will also the discovery of the
meaning of it—a thing of which I declare 1 am
quite in ignorance.—pariy Letter.
THE REMAINS OF THE RONAPAILTES• —A
Paris correspondent of a New York paper
writes as follows :
An interesting ceremony for the Bonaparte
family took place a few days ago at the Church
of the Hotel des Invalides. A place of repose
for the remains of Joseph Bonaparte, King of
Spain, has just been finished in the chapel, and
on the occasion referred to, these remains
were transferred from their temporary repose
in a side chapel to the place prepared for their
final resting place. This church now contains
the remains of three of the brothers Bonaparte:
the first Emperor; Joseph, King of Spain; and
Jciome, King of Westphalia. It also contains
the remains of the eldest son of Jerome by
Catharine of Wurtemburg.
