Affairs in Norfolk--Destructive fire. --A letter from Norfolk, November 7th, to the New York Herald, gives the following intelligence from that unhappy city: Gen. Foster and staff, accompanied by several ladies and Gens. Barnes, Potter, and others, visited the theatre here last night, to witness for a second time the performances of the Webb sisters, who seem to have taken all our officers by storm. The theatre was finely decorated with national flags, and the band of the 11th Pennsylvania cavalry performed patriotic airs with great eclat. This occasion is important, from the fact that this was only the second time since the outbreak of the rebellion that the national airs have been performed here.--The General did not leave until the performance had been concluded, when he embarked on a special boat, and proceeded, with many invited guests, to the fortress, where, it was understood, there was a farewell supper in waiting, to be partaken of by him and his friends before h

g from scouts and deserters that Bragg was dispatching Longstreet from the front, and moving him in the direction of Knoxville, Tenn., evidently to attack Burnside, and feeling strongly the necessity for some move that would compel him to retain all his forces and recall those he had detached, directions were given for a movement against Missionary Ridge, with a view to carrying it and threatening the enemy's communication with Longstreet, of which I informed Burnside by telegraph on the 7th November. After a thorough reconnaissance of the ground, however, it was deemed utterly impracticable to make the move until Sherman should get up, because of the inadequacy of our forces, and the condition of the animals then at Chattanooga, and I was forced to leave Burnside for the present to contend against superior forces of the enemy until the arrival of Sherman with his men and means of transportation.
