Our Correspondence.from Norfolk.the fleet off Old Point — the Amateur performances — War Matters--Peace of the City, &c. Norfolk, Sept. 25, 1861. There is a powerful Federal fleet at Old Point, consisting principally of four large ships of war. The destination of this imposing armada is of course unknown here.--An expedition will probably start shortly or an attack on some point on the Southern coast. It is supposed by some persons that the fleet will proceed to Brunswick, Ga., (a inOld Point, consisting principally of four large ships of war. The destination of this imposing armada is of course unknown here.--An expedition will probably start shortly or an attack on some point on the Southern coast. It is supposed by some persons that the fleet will proceed to Brunswick, Ga., (a ine harbor;) others say, Charleston or New Orleans; while a few think we shall soon have "particular thunder and lightning" in Hampton Roads and farther up Norfolk harbor. Wool and his Butler may intend to attempt the hazardous work of fighting their way up to Norfolk and the Navy-Yard; but many doubt that such an effort will be made before the completion of the gun-boats, of which so much has been said.

res are in progress to prevent any further intrusion by the Federal vandals upon the soil of the Old North State. Eight of the Southerners who live on the coast, and who took the oath of allegiance to the North, have been arrested and sent to Raleigh.--They were caught with incendiary circulars from the Hessian camp. The Confederate steamer Kahukee, Capt. Taylor, went down this morning to Fort Montoe under a flag of truce, carrying a number of ladies, among whom is Mrs. Jos. Segar, of Old Point. The baggage of an officer, marked "T. D. Wilson, U. S. N.," was also taken down. The greater part of the passengers are ladies of the members of the band of the Federal frigate Cumberland--mostly Germans.--The Cumberland, it will be remembered, was at the Navy-Yard until the night of the fire, and left with the Pawnee after the incendiary torch was applied.

y of Artillery, equipage, &c., in the hands of the Victors--Col. Mulligan Surrenders, etc., etc. The Norfolk Day Book, [Extra,] of yesterday, contains the following gratifying intelligence, which puts to rest all doubt as to the victory of the Confederate forces at Lexington, Missouri. The Day Book extracts from a copy of the New York Herald, of the 24th, placed in the hands of the editors by a gentleman who reached Norfolk on Thursday afternoon in the "flag of truce boat" from Old Point. The Situation.[from the New York Herald, of the 24th.] Official information of the capture of Lexington, Mo., and the surrender of the gallant Col. Mulligan to the rebel forces of General Price, reached the War Department yesterday; and as no contradiction of the report comes from any other quarter, we are unwillingly compelled to receive it as authentic.--Gen. Prentiss has dispatched to St. Louis a statement of the surrender, which reduced the loss on both sides considerably bel
