The expedition from Fortress Monroe.
Our dispatches announce the departure of a fleet from Fortress Monroe, under command of General Butler.
The supposed destination is the coast of North Carolina, and the probable object is to fill up the inlets by sinking old hulas, in order to render Lincoln a blockade "effective."

All quiet on the lower Potomac. Washington, August 28
--The steamship Philadelphia has arrived from Fortress Monroe.
She reports all quiet and the navigation of the Potomac uninterrupted.
Signal rocket from Maryland were shot, evidently to convey the intelligence of her presence.
She waited until morning, and she found all the Confederate batteries silent.
The Patrick Henry.
A telegraphic message from Fortress Monroe states that it is reported that the Confederate steamer Patrick Henry had run the blockade of the fort, and of course the ships also.
We discredit the rumor.
When the Patrick Henry gets out to sea, the fact of her escape will be too well known among the Federalists of the fort to admit of any doubtful and uncertain phrase in announcing it. Whether or no she ever gets out, remains to be seen.
We have our own notion about that; but when she gets out, if she ever does, the fact will be positively known very soon afterwards, and it will make Northern merchants tremble for their hazards at sea.
Reported movement of the steamer Patrick Henry. Washington, Aug. 28
