European news. By the City of Baltimore, from Liverpool on the 4th, via Queenstown on the 5th, we have, through Northern journals, the following items of European news: Great Britain. President Lincoln's disapproval of General Dix's order to pursue the marauders into Canada was received with great satisfaction. The papers generally argue that Mr. Lincoln could do nothing less; but nevertheless complimented him for his prompt action. The Times, editorially, is very much inclined to sympathize with the people of the Northern States in the matter of the St. Albans raiders. It maintains that the authorities ought to have taken the risk and responsibility of detaining the raiders till the warrant was signed by the Governor-General. It says that, whatever fault may attach to the Canadian authorities, the Government and people of England had no power in the matter, and have no other wish than to carry out the extradition treaty with the utmost fairness and fullness.

Five hundred dollars reward. --Ran away from the subscriber, at Dinwiddie Courthouse, on the 8th instant, my Negro Woman, Hannah; very likely; nineteen years old; stammers when excited. I suppose she is trying to get to the Yankees. The above reward will be paid for the apprehension of said slave. Drewry J. Barner. ja 26--5t*
rs, but seldom hitting them. One of their shells or shots, however, struck the Saugus fair on the turret, and knocked out and loosened forty bolts. This was owing to the bolts being driven from inside to out, instead of from outside to in. The turret was not materially injured, and was repaired again in about two weeks, and I have been using the Saugus here, against these works, where she has done effective service. The Canonicus, Mahopac and Monadnock left Hampton Roads on the 13th ultimo, the former two in tow of steamers, the Monadnock going under steam, with a steamer in company. The weather was quite rough, and at times the sea would go over the turrets and down the funnels; but I passed them while at sea, and they were making excellent weather of it. On asking their commander, afterwards, how they got along, the answer was, "Oh, quite well, sir; only a little damp." On arriving at Beaufort, North Carolina, I filled them up with coal and ammunition. I found a de

The steamer General Lyons arrived here this afternoon with five hundred men of the Tenth North Carolina regiment, captured in Fort Fisher, who are to be sent to Fort Delaware. On the evening of the 18th instant, Colonel Abbott, commanding a brigade of troops, started out from Fort Fisher on the way to Wilmington, North Carolina. A general forward movement of our troops against the town was actively engaged in reconnoitering along the banks of the Cah Atlantic blockading squadron, has arrived. She left Charleston bar on the evening of January 18th, and was off Fort Fisher on Thursday evening. All Admiral Porter's fleet, except the larger vessels, were in Cape Fear river. On the night of the 18th, five blockade-runners ran into New inlet (not knowing of the fall of Fort Fisher), and were captured by our fleet. Their names were not ascertained.

a little damp." On arriving at Beaufort, North Carolina, I filled them up with coal and ammunition. I found a defect in a pump on board the Canonicus--a "centrifugal pump" they called it — which did not fetch the water until there was a foot or more in the vessel. This was a serious defect, and one for which the constructors were very culpable. The Mahopac's decks leaked considerably, and made the officers and crew very uncomfortable. The monitors started from Beaufort on the 18th ultimo, the Canonicus and Mahopac being towed, the Monadnock declining such assistance. Indeed, she did not require it, outrunning the largest vessels easily, and keeping ahead of all except the very fastest. On the 21st ultimo it came on to blow hard from the southwest, and a very heavy sea commenced rolling in. The vessels were all anchored in thirteen fathoms water, with a long scope of chair out. Most of the large vessels dragged during the gale. The Tuscarora and Juniata put to sea (

I was anchored quite near them, and witnessed their performance. I at first thought I had been imprudent, and had unnecessarily risked the lives of office
Marry Hughes, the well-known engraver, was to death in Augusta, Ga., on the 22d instant.
We received last night Northern papers of the 23d instant. From Wilmington--five blockade vessels captured. Fort Monroe, January 20. --The frigates Minnesota, Wabash, Colorado, and a greater portion of the larger vessels of Admiral Porter's fleet, recently operating against Fort Fisher, North Carolina, have returned, and are now anchored in Hampton Roads. The steamer General Lyons arrived here this afternoon with five hundred men of the Tenth North Carolina regiment, captured in Fort Fisher, who are to be sent to Fort Delaware. On the evening of the 18th instant, Colonel Abbott, commanding a brigade of troops, started out from Fort Fisher on the way to Wilmington, North Carolina. A general forward movement of our troops against the town was actively engaged in reconnoitering along the banks of the Cape Fear river, and in sounding for torpedoes and removing obstructions to the free navigation of the river.
