From Washington. Washington, Feb. 5. --A Naval Court of Enquiry, consisting of Captains Storer, Lavalette and Powell meets here Friday, to investigate the conduct of Capt.

They came from mountain and valley, from far and near, to aid in repelling the further advance of the Federalists. Mr. P. states that our actual loss is greatly loss than has been reported; that several of the Georgia companies, said to have been captured, had returned to our encampment, and that a great many others, believed to have been lost, have found their way to the pass in safety.
