arly yesterday morning. As has been reported, not a Yankee soldier remained in Edenton, and not a gunboat could be seen on Albemarle Sound. He thinks the enemy have gone round toward Washington on Newbern, but in this opinion. I do not coincide. A large fleet is reported in Hampton Roads, and the next move will probably be on the Nansemond river or in the vicinity of Smithfield. This has already been fore shadowed in the correspondence of the New York Herald from Fortress Monroe. Mayor Hall informed me that he was at Edenton at the landing of the Federals, and met the gunboats at the wharf. In answer to his inquiry as to the course they intended to pursue, he was told that private citizens and private property would be respected, but armed men, commissary stores and arms of every kind, would be seized. When they commenced rolling in the bales of cotton he enquired if that was not private property, and was answered that cotton was contraband, and would be seized everywhere.
