ton.
The Monitor came down early this morning
and was greeted with enthusiastic cheers by the
various vessels in the harbOr.
Gen Wool and staff and Assistant Secretary
Of the Navy Fox went on board this morning.
She was found not to be damaged in the slightest
degree and is as well prepared as ever she could
be for mother conflict. Her performance was
perfectly satisfactory TO her officers and men, and
they all speak Of her in the highest terms of
praise.
The gunboat Whitehall took fire at 9 O'Clock
this morning and was totally destroyed.
The British sloop-ot war Rinaldo arrived here
this morning. She is FROM off Charleston. No
news.
The latest estimate of the number killed on
the Congress is fifty, including three officers,
Lieut. Joe Smith, commanding, Acting Master
Thos Moore and Coast Pilot VIM. Rhoads
Capt VIM Smith commanded the Congress until
recently transferred.
Twenty seven are reported wounded and forty
were taken prisoners. none of them officers.
On board the Cumberland the Rev. Mr.. Land

On the " hitehall Third Assistant Engineer

seamen were killed and two or three wounded
On the Dragon, which received a shot in her
boiler, three men were wounded, none of them
officers.
The VIM. Weldon received shot in her boiler
and the Rescue was damaged in her machinery.
The former was towed to Baltimore by the AIDE
laide.
The Minnesota lost six men killed and seven
teen wounded, not including any officers. So far
as known she is said to have received quite a
number of shots.
The Roanoke received but two shots and little
damage was occasioned by them. No casualty
occurred on board except the falling of man
from aloft.
1t is generally believed now that the Merrimac
must have received serious damage. 1t is the
testimony of some that she considerably list
ed on one side as she went behind SewalPs Point
The officers and men of the Monitor speak in
the highest terms of her performance, and think
they might have destroyed the Merrimac without
much difficulty if they had been allowed the op
portunity.
