By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented.

Lacy, was officially inspected at Portsmouth yester- day by the authorities and reported upon very fa vourably. She will be paid off this morning into the first division of the steam reserve. The whole of the machinery and boilers will have to be taken out owing to their defective state. She came home from China working two cylinders, and during the past three years her machinery has been in such a condition that it required the unceasing exertions of her engineers to keep her available for service. The Tyrian quarantine brig, having completed her repairs below the water-line in No. 1 dock at Portsmouth, has been undocked and placed in the old ship basin. The Surly gunboat, 6 0-horse power, tender to the Cornwallis, Lieut. H. C. Onslow, having taken in coal, has left Sheerness to resume her duties in the Humber. The Undaunted, 51, screw steam frigate, 600- horse power, which recently arrived at Sheerness from Woolwich, has been taken into the fitting basin to be coppered and prepared for the third class steam reserve. The Newcastle, 51, screw steam frigate, which was recently launched at Woolwich, made her offi cial trip at Sheerness yesterday. The frigate left the steam basin at 9 a.m., in charge of Captain Schomberg, commanding the steam reserve at the port, and steamed out of the harbour for the trial ground, off Mapling Sands. Mr. Price, inspector of machinery afloat at Sheerness, and Mr. Townsend, foreman of the engineering department at Sheerness Dockyard, were on board and superintended the trial on the part of the Government. The contrac tors (Messrs. Ravenhill, Salkeld, and Co.) were re presented by Messrs. Ravenhill and Hodgson. The Newcastle is of 600 nominal horse power. Her en gines worked beautifully, and showed very little variation in their revolutions. Her steering qualities were very good. She made six runs at the measured mile, the vessel drawing l9ft. 10in. of water aft, and 15ft. 7in. forward (Griffith's screw, pitch 27, diameter 28). The average of the six runs gave a speed of 13.266 knots per hour. Revolution of en gines, 60; pressure of steam, 20; vacuum, 25. There was a total absence of hot bearings, and the ma chinery worked very satisfactorily. The screw steamship Cressy, 80, Capt. T. Harvey, which arrived from Gibraltar at Plymouth on Wed nesday, as already reported in The Sun, transferred yesterday morning about 70 invalids belonging to the Mediterranean fleet, and the crew of the broken up gunboat Quail, into the steamtug Confiance, which conveyed the former to the Royal Naval Hospital, and the latter to the flagship Impregnable in Hamoaze. After receiving about 150 tons of coal the Cressy was appointed to leave the Sound yester day afternoon for Sheerness. The trial of the screw steam sloop Pantaloon, 11 outside Plymouth Breakwater, on Wednesday was in relation to the engines, perfectly satisfactory, but the wind from the northward and eastward was blowing so hard that it will become necessary for her to make a second trial, which may take place nest week.

OLDRIDGE, 22, Wellington-street, Strand. further up the bay, there can be very little doubt that the whole arrived at Annapolis, and that the three regiments are in Washington by this time. " We learn on the authority of Capt. Sherman, of the Vermont Arsenal, who came from Washington in the Keystone State, that the Potomac was open, no obstructing batteries being planted on its shores by the ,Secessionists, and the heights of Georgetown and Arlington being both held by the Government. And it is to be regretted that the Government did not send the Pawnee to the mouth of the river with this intelligence, so that the vessels from New York might have gone direct to Washington, and thus saved the troops a tedious march of 16 miles from Annapolis to the junction, besides enabling them to reach Washington one day earlier. " As to the movements of the rebel troops we have also some reliable information. One of our special correspondents at Pensacola : , Florida, was compelled to leave there very hurriedly by the Secessionists on the 21st inst. He reached Montgomery on the 26th, and with considerable difficulty got safely as far north as Cincinnati, from which point he tele graphed us yesterday. Ile reports the condition of things at Fort Pickens to be in statu quo. The rebels have given up the :dela of attacking it for the present until they get renforeements and are sup plied with columbiads, the small 42-pounders they have not being suffi.3ierit to do any damage to the fort. 6,000 rebel volunteers are said to be ready for service at Richmond, Which number, it is calcu lated, will be increased to 25,000 at the close of the week. There seems to be very little doubt that both Mr. Davis and Mr. Stephens are there now; Gen. Beauregard is, in all probability, still in Charles ton. A State battery has been erected at Yorktown, and another at a point three miles above Rich mond. At Harper's Ferry 4,000 men were sta tioned, but it is supposed that they are under orders to move at once to a location nearer the federal capital. 25,000 Secession troops are at Norfolk. " Such are the movements, up to the last ac counts, of tro ,ps of both hostile parties. Other events, however, appear to be transpiring in Mary land which , bear somewlot on the course of events. It is reported from Harrisburg that a considerable flight of negroes into Pennsylvania is taking place, and that •an attack h a s been made by a body of Magian d era, etn- --the 'Wage_ _of __Hanover. York County, - Pennsylvania, in consequence. It is said that whole families are leaving Maryland and fly ing into the counties of Adams, York, and Frank lin, Pennsylvania, and that the fear has become general in the border counties of Maryland that the departure of the whole slave population is immi nent. Over 500 slaves have already run off. " Rumours reach us from Baltimore that a re markable change of sentiment in f avour o f th e some portions of the p re s s place there, ocfes; b which i s indicated in ut the reports need aaUn measure Union o n other h a s um pt confirmation. Our latest intelligen ce f rom th a t quarter represents that city as still under the con trol of the Secessionist mob, though qui e t. by a c yk i circumstances; " Washington may be considered safe for the present. It is stated that there is no want of pro visions there, and that the Government has made ample arrangements for all necessary supplies." The 'limes of the 27th says : " The advantages in the struggle for position may now be considered as decidedly in favour of the Government. The troops now 19 Washington, in cluding the 7th of this city, which has positively arrived there in safety, are amply sufficient to hold the city against any Secessionist forces likely to be brought against it for some tim e to come. But ac tivity is not to cease with the present safety of the capital, and troops will continue to be concentrated there until they reach a number which shall render any ultimate attempt against it improbable. The Secessionist forces now collected in Virginia are said to number 14,000, but it is not likely, from all we can learn, that they are more than half-armed. Meanwhile, from every point in the North and West the note of preparation continues to be sounded, and troops are being placed at the dis posal of the Government with marvellous rapidity. " The latest advices which reach us from Balti more indicate that the rule of the Secession mob is becoming distasteful to a large portion of the com munity, and especially among those engaged in trade, whose business has come to a full stand in consequence of the interruption of the usual chan nels of communication, and the condition of terror into which the inhabitants have been thrown by the scenes transpiring around them. The Union men are once more gaining courage to give utter ance to their sentiments, and the Stars and Stripes' again float over the head-quarters of the Minute men and on Butcher's-hill. Persons are even found bold enough to proclaim Union sentiments in the public parlours of the hotels. Other indi cations of a reaction in the public mind are not wanting, but perhaps the most significant one of all is to be found in a leading article published in the Baltimore Sun ofyesterday, which emphatically denies that the Sun is a Secession paper, and warns the Legislature, an extra session of which has been called by Governor Hicks, that it has no right to pass an Ordnance of Secession." The New York Herald contains the following news from Washington, Maryland, and Virginia : " Official advices " , ll re A ce it iv it ed th i li oVigUhi AfrPommi,26. Wash ington, show that 4,000 Northern troops entered the city before 4 o'clock yesterday. There was an abundance of provisions following. " Perfect security is felt relative to defence. " The Keystone State, escorted by the Pawnee, passed up the P o tomac without molestation, reached Washington on Wednesday night, landed 250 ma rines and sail ors, and left same night—destination unknown. No attempt was made to interrupt her progress. - " — One of the arrivals here to-night is that of a native of Vi rg i nia, formerly an officer of the Fede ral House o f Representatives.

On the Stock-Exchange on the 26th there was no decided excitement either way . The course of prices was again re versed, and previous figures reduced on the closing printed sales about as follows :—Virginias, 411; Missouris, Tennessees, 42; Central, 721; Erie, 19i ; Hudson, 35/ ; Harlem Preferred, 294; Reading, 31; Michigan Central, 421 ; Michigan Guaranteed, 27/ ; Panama, 99} ; Illinois Central, 561; Galena, 56 ; Toledo, 22/ ; Rock Island, 351; Burlington, 56. On the Southern Border State stocks there was some dis position shown to press sales of Missouris at lower figures. The impression drawn from recent letters from St. Louis (say the New York limes) is that, should the State require half a million dollars from Vie banks for war purposes, they will not be able to supply in addition the means in New York necessary to pay the July interest on the public debt. There may be, and we dare say is, some reason to fear tem porary difficulty on this point, bug, as the Ist of July is yet more than two months off, affording time for a radical change in, the political situation of the country, the actual holders of Missouri bonds are not called upon to make im mediate sacrifices i n th e mar k et. T here is a serious fall, also, in Tennessee Sixes on advices from Nashville that the State is likely to be hurried into an armed league, either with the Gulf Confederacy or with the other Border States, which will involve a considerable public expen diture, to be borne by the bank of Tennessee, owned by and acting as the fiscal agent of the State. But, as re marked in the case of Missouri, the intervening period of 60 days may altogether change this prospect. Should no extensive military expenditure be incurred by Tennessee, our belief is that the Bank of Tennessee will have the abi lity to place the July interest, as usual, in the Merchants' Bank in New York, aided as it will be by the railway com panies of the State, to whom the bends were originally loaned, at the rate of 10,000 dols. per mile mortgage upon the several dividend lines. There was not much variation in Virginia stocks to-day, although the suggestion was made, but not acted upon, at the Board of Brokers, that the stocks of all the seceding States should be struck from the official list. In railway monigages, so far as they were offered, prices were well maintained, and the Federal secu rities were also steady; registered 81's at 87, and coupons 851 per cent. Late i n th e a ft ernoon th e mar k e t in the share-list was steady, and disposed to firmness; New York Central, 721 to 72/ per cent., and other stocks fully up to the latest printed sales at the Second Board. The market for money is quiet and easy on call loans on stock collateral, but unsettled on mercantile paper, which is subjected to increased scrutiny by reason of a number of recent failures in the jobbing trade, and rumours of in creased embarrassment among houses dependent upon Southern and North-Western collections. The high ex changes and depreciated local currency at St. Louts and Chicago have greatly aggravated the difficulty of collecting I rues in Missouri, Illinois, &c. The foreign exchanges are easy for the steamer to-morrow ; rates about the same as on Wednesday. London, 1051 to 106 for best class of bankers' bills, and 104 to 105 for merchant bills. The cotton-market continues firm, while sales were mode rate, having been confined to about 500 to 600 bales, clos ing within the range of 13/c. to 14c. for middling uplands; even lots could not be readily had under the latter figure. Flour was in better demand, and more active, and closed at an advance of sc. to 10c. per barrel for common and medium grades of State and Western brands. Southern flour was active, and decidedly higher. Wheat was in good request and prices steady. Corn was firm and in steady demand. Pork was steady, with sales of mess at 18 dols. 37c. tio 18 dols. 50c., and prime at 13 dols. 50c. Sugars were compa ratively quiet; the sales comprised about 300 hhds, confined to the trade, and 200 hhds. Porto Rico by auction. Coffee was quiet, awaiting the public sale to come off on the 27th. Freights were rather firmer, while engagements were quite limited. THE WAR IN AMERICA. It is now just possible to discern, dim and indis tinct, the proportions of the coming conflict in America. The fisherman in the Arabian tale who broke the seal of Solomon saw the column of smoke which ascended from hisjar gradually take the shape of a monstrous Genie. So the confusion and debate which succeeded the first meetings of the Legisla ture of South Carolina, six months ago, are now consolidated into the form of two opposing armies on the line of the Potomac. Disputation is at an end, war has begun, and the course of events has so much defined itself that the eye may even pene trate a little way into the darkness of futurity. The most important news brought by the steamer is that Washington is likely to be secured to the Federal Government. Although the advices are only two days later than the last, it appears that in that time the capital had been reinforced to such an extent that a sudden attack of the Virginians was not to be dreaded. Whether the Southern Generals serious:y meditated the seizure of the Federal metropolis it is impossible to say. The communications between North and South have been entirely suspended, and it is singular to find that in that land of railways and telegraphs people at the North were uncertain whether President Davis was quietly administering affairs at Montgomery or reconnoitring Washington from the Virginian shore of the Potomac. Much less can we determine what are the Confederate tactics. There are two courses open to the Southerners—either to advance and give battle to the North in mass, or to content them selves with attacking and reducing the Federal forts which still remain in their territory. One of these, Fort Smith, in Arkansas, has just been taken by the State troops, from which we may conclude that this State, which a few weeks since declared for the Union, has now definitively seceded. But there are others formidable enough which have to be reduced, and which may call fur all the courage and skill of the Southerners. Of these the prin cipal is Fort Pickens, which has been just rein forced. Fort Monroe, near Norfolk, in Virginia, is also capable of making a long resistance, espe cially since it can be supported from the sea by the fleets of the Union. Now, there are many who think that the natural course of the Confederated States would be to possess themselves of these points, instead of making as it were, an incursion into territory where the Unionists are likely to be in full strength. Since, too, the Confederates are endeavouring by all means to gain a character for moderation and to appear as fighting only in de fence of their own territory, we may presume that they would not willingly advance on Washington while it remained beyond the limits of their own Confederacy. We fully believe that when Fort Sumter was attacked there was no design to carry the war so far North. But events may have disap pointed all their calculations. The very success of their policy has 'imposed a military enterprise on them which it is difficult to carry out and inglo rious to shrink from. The proclamation of Mr. Lin coln has been followed by the secession of Virginia, the possession of Harper Ferry and the southern bank of the river on which Washington is placed. Every Virginian is naturally tempted to make a dash at a prize which lies on the very border of the enemy's country. The consequence has been that both sides have been drawn on to make the district of Columbia their battlefield. The Virginians col lected in numbers which appeared to threaten the capital, and the danger roused the North to a mili tary enthusiasm which has astonished even those who know the excitability of the American cha racter. But the most important result of this move ment is the present condition of the State of Mary land. The troops which were poured down from the Nortb, and particularly the New Englanders, were looked upon as invaders, ready to destroy the plantations, liberate the slaves, and ruin, if not maltreat, the white people themselves. A great part of the State, including the large and turbulent city of Baltimore, rose in insurrection, and Gover nor Hicks was obliged to head a movement which has by this time probably ended in secession, though, as might be expected, a large minority of the people are firm Unionists. It is perfectly plain, however, that the Federal armies will pay no attention to any ordinance of a Maryland Legislature or Convention. If subjugation is to be their policy, there must be a beginning made somewhere, and it will be made in this debateable land, where Slave and Free Soil intermingle. When the last mail left it seemed possible that the Mary landers might succeed in stopping the march of the Northern Volunteers from Annapolis to Washing ton. But the Secessionists have now lost their chance. We learn that the troops have been pushed forward to the capital, where already four New York regiments had arrived; that the route was kept open by Federal troops ; and that the capital was considered strong enough to resist an attack. Hence, as it seems to us, the Southerners are in a difficulty. Their policy is, as before, to keep within their own territory ; but now Washington is in their own territory. If Maryland have seceded, or even if, though the Legislature be coerced, the body of the population be in arms against the Union, it will become a point of honour with the Confederate States to come to the rescue of their friends. Per haps a success of the Virginians and Marylanders at Washington would even be a calamity to the South, as committing it more than ever to a regu lar campaign beyond the Potomac, in a country easily commanded from the sea, and in close neigh bourhood with the most populous Northern States. On the other hand, should the Marylanders resist the passage of troops, they may cause the Federal Government much trouble. The North sends men in sufficient numbers, bat transport is scarce, provi sions are few and may be cut off by the insurgents, and the troops may suffer all that is involved in an enemy's country. Something like a regular campaign in this region is now unavoidable. That it will be _narrowed, at least for a time, to the eastern part of the Con tinent seems likely. The neutrality of Kentucky so far is in favour of the South. Not only are 021 Confederate States secured from the attack of the PRICE 4D .

Already the movement on either side has passed out of the control of any President or Congress or Military Commander. Already the two sections are arrayed against each other to a man. A month ago the Unionists were a large minority at the South ; the sympathisers with the Secessionists were powerful all over the North. Now there is no majority or minority on either side. In the States actually at war, every man, either from choice or necessity, goes with his section of the Republic. Nor is it, we fear, likely that the war will be re stricted to the ends proposed by President Lincoln, or the means which his military advisers were for adopting. To blockade the ports of the Seceded States, to hold or recapture the forts, to collect the Customs by revenue vessels cruising outside the harbours, and thus, in time, to bring erring citizens to reason, were schemes well enough a month ago. But now that blood is shed, and the most irritable and vindictive people in the world are in arms against each other, such half-hostilities will find little favour. We are so absolutely cut off from all news of what is passing at the South that we cannot pretend to speak of the popular impulses there, except so far as we may divine them from the well-known character of the Southerners. But at the North there are signs that the Seceders, if beaten, may expect little mercy. It may be said that we ought not to take extreme utterances for the opinion of the mass; but in these conjunctures it is the extreme counsel which prevails ; what is e.c extreme e.a. y t, to day o i v s r. l op , k v v e d e e u a p n o n n e t a , hear without apprehonßion- the threats of the Repub- Kean, and Abolitionis t —party, tho ofroot therefore, mdeate the slaveholders must be rooted out ; that a hun dred John Browns instead of one will now invade Virginia; that as the "Tories"--that is, the Loyalists of the American War—were. exiled, and all their goods confiscated, so the landowners of Virginia and the. Carolinas must be swept away, to make place for the brave fellows who have fought under the Stars and Stripes, and who, on the principle of " the spoils to the conquerors," so long acted upon in ' politics, are to be in possession of the domains of the Seceders. Who can say that in another week or two such doctrines, instead of being confined to zealots of the Northern pai ty, will not be general among the levies that are pouring into Maryland ? The alarm and hatred of the South will then in crease tenfold, and a war may be carried on unsur passed in ferocity by anything that Europe has known in later ages. The planting States, the original Seceders, are secure in their 'remoteness from the scene of war, but the borderland will perhaps witness horrors to be remembered for generations. All that we can do is to keep aloof from the dreadful encounter. We feel that coun cil or mediation might as well be offered to the hurricanes which sweep over the Gulf of Mexico. We may receive a little satisfaction from the assurance of Lord Palmerston that no direct in jury to our own finances is likely to result from the war ; but it is a greater pleasure to be able to think that not only positive law, but the moral feeling of the community, will forbid any British subject to engage in the conflict for the purpose of private gain. The Home Secretary's declaration with respect to privateering will have the full assent of the country ; and when this strife is over we shall have the comfort of knowing that not one drop of blood was shed by us.—limes. THE NAPY. A letter from Malta, under date of the 3d of May, announces the arrival on the day previous of her Majesty's corvette Racoon, Capt. C. W. Cham berlain, from Jaffa, and the departure, the same afternoon, of her Majesty's ship Mars, Capt. J. N. Strange, for Beyrout. No further movements had taken place among her Majesty's ships since the Ist inst. The American corvette Iroquois, Capt. Palmer, was to leave Malta on the 4th instant for Tunis. Her Majesty's ships in Malta harbour ou the 3d were the Liffey frigate, bearing the flag of Vice-Admiral W. Fanshawe Martin, the Comman der-in-Chief; the Hibernia, receiving-ship (bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral H. J. Codrington, C. 8.), St. Jean d'Acre, line-of-battle ship; the Doris, fri gate; the Racoon, corvette ; the Alacrity, Lapwing, Assurance, Intrepid, and Quail gunboats; and the tug hearty. Her Majesty's paddlewheel steam sloop Cyclops, 6, 320-horse power, Capt. W. J. S Ptillen, arrived at Sheerness on Wednesday evening from the East Indies and China, and saluted the flag of Vice-Ad miral W. J. Hope Johnstone, Commander-in-Chief at the Nore. Yesterday the Cyclops was inspected by the Vice-Admiral, who expressed himself in highly satisfactory terms of the appearance of that vessel, after being so long a time in commission. The Cyclops will immediately commence stripping, preparatory to be being paid off. She has been in commission nearly four years. Her Majesty's ship Rhadamanthus, Mr. Sturdee, master commanding, from the Clyde, with engine gear for the screw steam frigate Bristol, yesterday went alongside the Royal Arsenal-pier at Woolwich to land 36 old fortress guns and carriages brought from Dumbarton Castle. The paddlewheel steam sloop Driver, commis sioned at Woolwich for service in the Atlantic, yes terday unshipped her heavy pivot gun—a 68-poun der, weighing 95cwt.—to be replaced by a 100- pounder Armstrong gun. The hired transports Black Eagle and Rambler , laden with military stores from Woolwich, yester day sailed for Halifax and Demerara. The steam gunboat Louisa, 2, 60 horse power, returned to Chatham harbour on Wednesday even ing, having been as far as the Maplin Sands for the trial of her engines since the alterations effected at Chatham dockyard in her machinery and screw. The trial, which was under the direction of Mr. T. Baker, chief engineer and inspector •of machinery at Chatham, and some others of the officials of that establishment, was considered on the whole very satisfactory. Yesterday preparations were commenced at Cha. tham dockyard for building the temporary dam which is to be placed at the entrance of No. 2 dock in lieu of the present caisson, in order that addi tional space may be obtained for the building of the large mail-clad steamer Achilles, 40. The length of the second dock, in which it is intended to build the new iron war steamer, is 336 feet, but by the substitution of a dam for the caisson now at the entrance an addition of 20 feet will be gained. The steam travelling cranes which are in the course of erection along each side of the dock by Messrs. Taylor and Co., of the Britannia Works, Birken head, will be completed in the course of a few weeks. These machines are of the most powerful description, and capable of lifting the heaviest por tion of the iron work which will be used in the construction of the new frigate. A considerable portion of the machinery required in building the Achilles has arrived at the dockyard from the contractors, but a great deal has yet to be fact, t eive a d e before the ship can be commenced ; he Achilles chief delay in the commencement o f . has arisen from the non-arrival ofhtenep resent time scriptions of machinery. mechanics have ma d e ap employed on the only comparatively few they apply platers plication at the dockyard t° be t t V h a e ri l au u r a me d b e ae - tr new frigate, but good are to be upwards of 1,000 once taken on.

Wotton, with mails f rom N ew Yorkof the .27th ult., has arrived from Cowes and gone on to Havre. Her advices are two days later than those brought by the Persia. She brings 21 passengers for Southampton and 255 for Havre. Among then are the following official personages :—Mr. J. Brit ton, United States Consul to Southampton ; Mr. C. L. Wilson, Secretary to Legation ; Mr. W. I. Dayton and family, Minister to France; Mr. Pen nington, Secretary to Legation ; Mr. J. S, Pike and family, Minister to the Hague ; Mr. Marsh and family, Minister to Sardinia ; Mr. A. Burlingame, Minister to Austria ; Mr. W. H. Vesey, Consul to Aix-la-Chapelle ; Mr. J. 0. Putnam and family, Consul to Havre; Mr. W. S. Campbell, Consul to Rotterdam. The Fulton spoke the Ocean Monarch going into New York. The Herald of the 27th gives the following as the situation of affairs : " The conflicting reports of the last few days relative to the situation of affairs in and around Washington have received a somewhat satisfactory solution in the intelligence which we are enabled to give in our columns to-day, at least as far as the movements of the regiments despatched from the North are concerned. It is certain now that the 7th Regiment of New York and the Massachusetts Regiment have arrived safely in Washington. The 7th and a part of the Massachusetts Regiment took the line of march from Annapolis early on Wednes day and reached the junction at 10 o'clock on Thursday morning. From this point they took the train for Washington, where they arrived in the afternoon and marched th roug h Pennsylvania avenue to the President's house, and thence to the War Department. The train which took them on returned to the junction at 4 o'clock in the after noon, and carried the remainder of the Massachu setts Regiment to the junction, where they were ordered to remain and guard the road. The 7th, it is said, rebuilt the bridges and repaired the road on their route. " The steam transport Baltic, which arrived hera yesterday from Annapolis, which port she left on Thursday morning, reports that the 12th Regiment had started for Washington, and were then 12 miles on their march to the junction, and as the road was open, the gallant 7th had already passed safely over. There is no doubt that the 12th reached Washing ton in a few hours. In all probability, the . 71st and 6th Regiments, which left New York on the same day (Sunday last), also arrived at the capitol in the wake of the 12th. " The steamer Wyoming, which arrived at Perry ville, Maryland, yesterday, reports that when she left Annapolis, at 10 o'clock yesterday rooming, two steamers of the New York fleet had just arrived there, the Marion and the Montgomery, with the brig of war Perry as convoy, and that the 69th Regiment was then disembarking. As the 69th went on the James Adger, however, it may be that the officers of the Wyoming were mistaken either as to the names of the New York steamers or the regiment then disembarking at Annapolis; but as the whole fleet, which left here on Tuesday, com prising the Alabama, with the Bth on board; the James Adger, with the 69th; the Marion with the 13th (Brooklyn Regiment); and the Montgomery, with the cavalry troop of the Bth, together with the brigch Che s a peake , a Y, were seen at anchor in the and Were Perrypeake by co th n e vo Keystone State, which arrived here from Washington yesterday, near the mouth hof the passed by the Baltic Potomac, `1 •••••%..• any tted wild oner r to tult , but ;nit. and, ra- heat mace ROM for d no rhite Zus- I per and •Red (.16s .fair ned.
