PoftTitkss Moshoe, Nor. 1, via Baltimore, Nov. 2.—The Ethan Allen reporta that 3ho left the naval fleet off Capa Hatteras, and that the ferry boats Eagle and Commodore Perry bad already been separated from the other vessels; being in tended for service on Pamlico Sound. The steamer Roanoke, just' returned - from the blockade off Charleston; .brings no intelligence. Her shaft was broken when off Beaufort, ; ahd r tbe prevalent heavy weather along the; coast compelled her to come up outside of the course Of the great expedition. . .. . .' - .y It is supposed that the fleet has already reached its destination. A flag of truce went to Norfolk to-day, but - has riot yet returned. _• ...... Tihe Fleet Passed off Hatteras on Wednes day Night—The Weather Fine. . BAx.TuroK3!,rHoT. 2.—A'.vessel andyed here this afternoon, which reports, haring passed the great fleet" off Hatteras on Wednesday; night; whan* the weathfer was;remarkably "fine.- The vessels were moving finely. ; • t - : ■■ ■ ; ■ The atom 1 eopimehced this • side of Hatteras, and the captain thinks the vessels have, had,a fine trip to the southward, and that they escaped .the storm. Speculations in Regard to the Destination of tfie Fleets ThcNew York Commercial Advertiser suggests that Beaufort, S; C., afewmiles from the railroad connecting Charleston , and ;Bavannalu itself'.ap proachable by Port Royal inlet and St. Helena Sound is, as the Madison Square of Palmetto aris tocracy, a desirable place for the landing and hous ing of our .“mud-sill 1 :’ volunteers, .and the“not in-soolety” Republicans of the London Times and Mr. Russell. Brunswick, Georgia, with a railway running back nearly,-if not.qinte to .the, Atlantic and Gulf railroad, is a good place for a winter re sidence. The sea islands, famous.for cotton and aristocracy,' also abound thereabouts, f Darien is not “ bad to take.” Remandina has its-advanta ges. Hor need we. overlook .Georgetown, and Wil mington, and Beaufort; N. C., and a hostbeside of pleasant retreats, suitable for the armed occupation ’of the expedition, .Perhaps the fleet, however? is not limited to any one place. It may propose a settlejeent at various eligible points. Letus'wait and see, and hope that the winds and waves hoky _Jje propitkms,‘so.dhattlie high heart-andithesterdy ' valor of the men may accomplish resultsthafcwill : show a long step forward in our march toOheresto- | rationpf;theUnioh. . . .. v-t-p'V’.v’. ' -As ilidications of the speculations aSoafwe give the-following. The' first is from the Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sir»; 1 •t The destination of the armament is now a theme of sspeculation. -'The preponderance of- opinion favors sthe -theory-that itis destined- for a "port where jitis argued, a cotton depot is to be opened,'- and a port of entry and clearance • established, uni; der the United States flag/so-that' English-and French merchant vessels may at once open s trade ' with the South, pay ing import duties to the United! States’under, the existing tariff.:. If the citizens of the Confederate States choose to purchase, foreign goods thus imported, they will pay for the same either in cbtton or in specie, more probably the former.- The temptation to sell their cotton a* high ; prices will, overcome any -restrictions -to the con trary. 'The Dutch, in one of their wars,being .be-. . sieged,-;sold powder to their enemy.-.yindieatipg, the,act on the ground that it was in the"interest of free trade —the great principle’for which a large portion.of the South contends. -.. i f The JSew York. World suggests that a lodgment oh an island or series of islands that commands im-, portant- harbors? with- a view to ffltureoperations, is manifestly the. object of -the expedition. Wo should- not, be surprised to hear, therefore, that Port Royal harbor,, on the South Carolina coast, should be one of, .the"points which it is in contem plation to take, provided itisfoundthe obatheles are . hot too formidable.
