By this arrival learn something more of the de-
plorable duel in the Virginia regiment, which pub
hed in paper of the LIST inst since which time we
had not till now been able to learn word of the
affair. The parties engaged in were Lieut. Nahan of
Capt. Bankhead's company. and Lieut. AIumford of
Capt Carrington's company. The latter died immedi-
aely being shot through in several places Lieut. Ma
han alive at last accounts from him, but it
thought could not survive having been shot directly
through the body Further particulars are given in our
correspondence letter
The Flag Of the 9th inst gives, upon the authority of
Capt Benedict, OF the schooner Madonna. which had
just arrived at the Brazos the following of the
wreck OF the brig Mobile, bound from New York for
Brazos Santiago, with $50 troops of the 10th Regiment

During strong breeze from the southwark. on the
night of the 23d ult the above named brig driven
ashore on Orange Keys Florida coastber niasts
cut away and every exerton made to her but she
soon bilged and settled down, the sea making COM
pete breach over her About forty Of the troops took
TO the boats and reached the Keys-the boats
dashed to pieces, which cut off all further conmunica
ton between the vessel and Keys, rendering cendi
ton OF both parties extremely dangerous Such the
situation OF the wreck on the morning OF the 2ih when
Philadelphia the Brazos with government stores dis
covered IT, ana at the risk OF losing his own vessel Capt
with great exeron, he succeeded in reaching and res
cuing the men who were on the Keys and proceed
ing what assistance he could to those on the
wreck, when the bark Alabama from Liverpool Ia-
vana hove in sight and by hosting signals and firing
guns she was induced to come to anchor, about five
miles of. The troops with their arms, ammunition and
supplies were then taken from the wreck by Captain
Benedict, and placed in safty on the Alabama, which
vessel proceeded with them To Havana whence they viii
doubtless be reshipped to their destination. The Me-
