Craney Island and SewelPs Point. Fruit and vege-
tables cheap at Norfolk, but -four is scarce aud

refugee from Richmond, by the flag of truce yester
day, SAYS that worse than Roman inauisition pre-
walls in Virginia. There is standing order that
no one shall be permitted to leave the country.
Governor lIetcher is completely overruled by JEFF
fersOn Davis and Beauregard, and even his patriot
ism called in question by many of the rebels.
Two hOwitZers arrived this morning for Colonel

The system ot telegraph now in use at the fort is
one of signals with flags by day and lamps by
night. Words, and combinations of words are
indicated BY certain motinns-a kind of deaf and
dumb alphabet, simple and easy to learn, and ca
pabl of conveying any message. BY repeating
messages may be sent any distance. Between the
Fortress and Newport News, the distance in direct
line, is about eighty miles By the aid of good
the flag can be seen with the greatest ease. There
are about the system many things resembling the
magnetic telegraph, such as repeating back, break
ing in when the message is not understood and
other conversational! features. There is nothing
compleX or cumbersome-a few flags iointed staff
and two lamps, all lashed and covered with slip,
not exceeding in bulk an ordinary fishing tackle,
constitute the entire machinery.
