Ordnance practice — no tidings of the fleet.

Wilmington, N C., Nov. 1.
--The reported cannonading about 1 o'clock this morning, in the direction of Fort Caswell, turns out to have been nothing more than the trial of ordnance. Such exercise is very injudicious at such a time as this.

There were no tidings of the fleet in this section up to nine o'clock to-night.
