Presbyterian Synod of New York and New Jersey, and Secretary Seward. The Synod, at a late session, in view of the critical condition of the country, passed a series of resolutions, pledging the influence of its members in behalf of the Government. They also took occasion, while disclaiming any intention of offering suggestions in regard to slavery, to express their full belief that it lies at the foundation of all the present difficulty, and to deprecate its existence.--(Doc. 199.) On the 25th inst. a reconnoissance from Port Royal, S. C., was made by Commander Drayton, of the U. S. steamer Pawnee, who ascended the Coosaw River, S. C., finding two deserted forts, of which he took possession. Yesterday morning he returned, and to-day ascended the Ashepoo River, took possession of an abandoned redoubt, and continued up the river as far as Hutchinson Island. The expedition then returned and examined Hunting Island, on the coast, but found no marks of fortifications.--(Doc. 201.)

assistance, succeeded in checking them. Night soon caused a cessation of hostilities. --(Doc. 131.) Colonel Howell, of the Eighty-fifth Pennsylvania volunteers, continued his reconnoissances toward the rebel outposts, in the neighborhood of Hilton Head, S. C. To-day, he advanced up the May River, in the patrol-boats Foulk and Croton, guarded by the gunboat Chippewa. Detachments from the Seventy-sixth and Eighty-fifth Pennsylvania volunteers accompanied the expedition. Landing on Hunting Island, the forces drove in the rebel pickets, and skirmished with the force in their rear. Captain Phillips, with some men of the Eighty-fifth, drove away the pickets in another locality, and regained the main body without casualty. Meanwhile, the Chippewa shelled the woods on and about the neighboring shores. Reembarking, the force proceeded toward Bluffton, shelling that place and its vicinity. Major-General John J. Peck, in official orders, issued the following from his headquarters

Loss of the British bark Coronet. --Capt. Peck, of the steamer Cecile, which reached this city yesterday, from Savannah, via Beaufort, has favored us with the following, which is the substance of a note he received from Capt. F. N. Bonneau, of the Confederate States schooner Howell Cobb: The British bark Coronet, Capt. Brown, ran ashore on the southeast end of Hunting Island shoal, on Wednesday night, the 15th inst., at 10 30, and is a total wreck; stern post and rudder gone, and eighteen feet of water in her hold. She is eight miles from the beach I boarded her on Thursday morning offering assistance, but he wanted none. I again boarded her on the 18th inst, and received the same reply. I gave him written instructions as to where he was and the bearings of Savannah, and I think he has since dispatched a boat there. P. S.--The steamer Reliance has arrived, and placed men on board the bark, but it is too rough for them to work to-day. The British bark Coronet was

my's fleet, when a fierce engagement of forty minutes ensued. The enemy fired rifle shot and shell, which fell about us in great profusion. Two shots passed through the Savannah without serious damage to the vesica, and nobody on board was injured. Parties at Port Royal say that seven shots from our fleet took effect on the Federal vessels. The latter coming in closer, our fleet retired. On yesterday all was quiet. It was reported, however, that the Federals were landing at Hunting Island. About 7 o'clock last night firing was again heard at Port Royal, and warm work was anticipated. [second Dispatch.]heavy firing — terrible fighting at Beaufort, & C. Augusta, Nov. 7, P. M.--Special dispatches to the newspapers of Augusta from Savannah, dated to-day, state that heavy and rapid firing has been heard all the forenoon. A report from Beaufort, dated 10½ o'clock this morning, states that a terrible fight is progressing at Bay Point. The result is unknown.
