It can, however, do no harm to state that the enemy have fourteen gunboats and transports near Port Royal, South Carolina, which is thirty-five miles northeast of Savannah and about fifty miles southwest of Charleston. Devastation of East Tennessee ordered by Sherman.

Yankee monitors Attack battery Hewlett on Tuesday and are Repulsed. On Tuesday morning, the batteries of the enemy on General Parke's line, in front of Bermuda Hundred, opened on our battery at the Howlett House, which is General Pickett's left. At the same time, three Yankee monitors moved up Trent's Reach to the point at which it was obstructed last summer, and also engaged

Special intelligence of Sherman's movements and present whereabouts was received here on yesterday by telegraph; fill as it is, possibly, a little ahead of the Georgia newspapers, it had, perhaps, better not be mentioned. It can, however, do no harm to state that the enemy have fourteen gunboats and transports near Port Royal, South Carolina, which is thirty-five miles northeast of Savannah and about fifty miles southwest of Charleston.

The battery directed most of its attention to the monitors, and soon caused two of them to retreat. The following dispatch from General Lee on the subject was received by the Secretary of War on Tuesday night and given to the press on yesterday:
