The Harriet Lane left the Navy-Yard yesterday at 2 o'clock. Considerable difficulty was encountered in getting the ship from her berth, owing to the lowness of the tide, but Capt. Faunce succeeded in taking her out. A very large number of persons were congregated on the decks to see her go out, many supposing that she was to proceed direct to sea, or to some of the Southern ports. This was not the case, as she steamed down the East river in fine style, saluted by the boats along the route; and turning the battery she came to anchor near the Jersey flats, where she awaits the reception of her powder and coal, which will be taken on board to-day.--She then will be ready for any service that the Government may require of her. She has had her armament strengthened by two medium thirty-two's. Her personnel has been increased by detailing ten marines to her list, and Surgeon N. L. Campbell, who is a native of this city. Capt. Faunce is now awaiting orders from Washington.--N. Y. World.
