Large vessel off the Western Bar --We learn that on yesterday morning, (says the Wilmington Journal, of the 13th,) a large propeller steamship, evidently a war vessel, and supposed to be the Wabash, came to anchor off the western bar, and about four miles from Fort Caswell. She was in the same position this morning at daylight, but soon got up anchor and steamed off to the Southwest in the direction of Georgetown and Charleston. Possibly this is the same vessel that engaged the batteries off Hatteras. She was not a British vessel, for she had the Stars and Stripes at her mizen. She is probably cruising around after privateers, and ready to pick up any thing she can get.
