| BALTIMORE, April Ia. The United
States steamer Hercules, r. S. Dur
gan, Lieut.. Commanding, reached this
port this morning, having with her the
schooner Bride, previously reported as
being captured, and the sloops Wren
and Velma, both of Great Wicomico
River, Western shore of Virginia-al-
so captured prizes. The Hercules left
this port short time since, towing
down the light ship which had been
previously fitted up for the tail of the
horse shoe. After this she cruised in
the vicinity of Smiths Island, and
succeeded in capturing the schooners
Wing and Bride. The commander
placed on board the latter Lieut.. J. B.
Baker, with the armed crew; who, on
Friday night, observed in Cager's
Straits, off Hog Island light the sloop
Wren. After chase of two hours,
she was run ashore at Sharks Point
by her crew, who escaped. The sloop
was Immediately burned, but no goods
or cargo Of any description, was found
on her. In the stove we're found the
remnants of certain papers, which had
been partially burned. Among them
was a permit or license to trade, sign
ed by the clerk of Northumberland
county, Va.
The Hercules, with her new consol'ts,
then cruised about, and on Sunday a
sail was noticed about six miles off,
steaming directly for the steamer,
which at the moment was anchored
The steamer Immediately got under
way and proceeded toward the vessel,
the captain Of which, on pereeiving
the Hercules, changed his course and
endeavored to effect his escape. After
q chase of half an hour the Her cules
came up to the vessel, which proved
to be the sloop Velma, having on her
stern the name of Bridgetown, though
she hailed from the great Wicomico
River, Eastern Virginia. Possession
was taken, with the Captain, Samuel
D. Hartford, of Great Annamesix, ),
and the crew, with five passengers from
Richmond, one of whom wasa captain
in the rebel army. On searching the,
Velma there was found large mail,
containing about two hundred letters,
large number ofwhich were address
ed to persons in Baltimore, and lar
ger number to persons in various parts
Of Maryland. On searching the crew
there was also found $4,000 in old
Virginia bank notes. The Velma had
some time previously been cleared
from thisport for Pomokoke Sound,
with d cargo consisting Of provisions
of various kinds. This cargo, instead
Of being discharged in Maryland ports,
was taken over to Great Wicomico
River; and there discharged within the
boundaries Of Virginia
The sloop was in ballast and was coming
back to get a new cargo. The rebel Captain,
previous being captured, burned his commits

among the ashes. He acknowledged the
fact, and also that that be had been engaged

The correspondence of the New York Herald
from Winchester, Va, contains the following:
There were many deeds Of heroism performed
on the battle field. While the Fifth Ohio was
charging against the enemy, the color bearer
was five times shot down; yet another instantly
replaced him at the risk Of his life. The last
color bearer was private named T. z. Isdell.
The flag staff was broken, yet the glorious ban

gallant regiment.

strong example of the influence Of sympathy is
reported to have occurred during the battle at
Pea Ridge. Hiram p Lord, Of the 25th Mis-.
souri,, Col. Phelps while charging up a ravine
fell rs If dead, and his companions ran to him
and asked II he was hurt. He did not answer.
aud it was soon discovered that he had swooned.
On reviving he said he must have been struck
by ball, for he felt pain in Ills left side, and
had distinctly experienced the stunning and
numbing sensation that results from gun shot
wound. His person was examined, and no marx
or indication Of injury was perceptible. He
could not comprehend the mysSery, but soon af.
ter resumed the fight, and forgot the sensation
until be had returned TO his camp, when he learn.
cd TO his surprise and sorrow that his twin
brother, George, was among the dead. George
had been in another part Of the field, and had
been shot in the body, and at the same time that
Hiram had believed himself mortally wounded.
The sympathy between the two brothers bad ey-
or been complete, and the illness Of enc was
usually accompanied by the sickness Of the 9th.

CAIRO NEWS.


CAIRO, April Accounts from Island, No.
10, represent matters there unchanged. The
bombardment continues at slow intervals
Shells have been thrown into the new iortifica.
tons on the Kentucky side of the river, and a
few shots have been received ia return, with no
great damage on either side.
The rebels are continually busy ct building
Notifications. They are improving every mo-
ment of time, and when the attack is made, it
will be found that the delay has greatly enhanc.
ed the difficulty of capture.
Firing is continually heard in the direction of
New Madrid, and it is supposed that the enemy
are making desperate efforts to prevent General
Pope from crossing the river. They have erect
ed batteries on the point opposite New Madrid,
which commands q stretch Of about five miles of
the river, and places his transports in danger of
humiliation. He must silence the batteries be-
fore he can cross to the relief OF the fleet
The rebels have also built batteries on the
river below New Madrid, aud have their gun
boats in readiness for action. There are one or
two Of these boats guarding the point where our
troops are expected to cross
Advices direct from New Madrid report that
Gen. Pope is in active preparation, aud will soon
be in condition to enter the field, with an over
whelming force. We are not permitted to give
the details Of his plans, but they will be such a.
will accomplish any desired result which may
be within the range Of possibilities.
There is nothing from the Tennessee river Of
direct Importance.
We hear that Gen. Grant is nearly prepared
for the grand battle that is expected. The men,
bers Of his staff who are here, have been order
ed to report at Headquarters immediately.
Gen. Buell. Is on the line of the Nashville and
Decatur Railroad, making very slow progreas.
The terrific storm that visited this locality
last night, extended over a wide tract Of coun-
try, and did an immense amour. of damage, 10
or IL lives were lost here by the breaking Of the
levee and sinking Of boats.
At Paducah and Mound City, large numbers Of
houses were unroofed, and several lives lost
We have heard nothing Of its effect on the
bombarding fleet.

BALTIMORE AND ONO RAILRoAD-A BAD OMEN
The refusal of the Directors of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad to require the employees to
take the oath of allegiance, was talked about by
the merchants to day, and as the matter now
stands, few seem willing to ship by that route
The proposal Of the Company to guarantee
shippers against loss does not help the matter
much. People see disloyslty sticking out at
the head of affairs, and this impression must be
satisfactorily removed, or'the business Of the
road will suffer- This is the situation" One
would suppose that men who had the manage.
ment of this road would have been cured of
their secession sympathies long ago; but disloy-
atty is deeply rooted ameng the wealthy classes
Of Baltimore, and they seem determined to play
the game while longer. But we hope the Bal
timore and Ohio road will not be kept in jeopa,-
day by them.-[ Gin. Gsz

Can it be, in such a case, that humanity can
so distinguish between friend and foe stricken
down by suffering and DEATH Yet many have
observed the unconcern for Federal sufferers
and the anxiety and care for the Confederates
which was very generally exhibited at our hos
pitfalls. The people of the place have display
ed more sullenness and hatred toward us since
this battle, ten times over, than they ever have
before, and when the approach of Jackson on
Winchester was reported, the people, many of
them were exultant and triumphant, thinking
that Jackson was Immediately about to march
in and redeem then.
When the rebel prisoners were being sent
away to Baltimore, the ladies in town sought
to tighten the Imprisonment by bringing deli
cacies to them and little presents--and their
disloyalty was manifested openly, the men as
surfing the fair ones that they were still for
JEFF. Davis. All who had started for Fairfax
Court House have returned to Winchester.
The breaking down of the bridge was the prin-
cipal event. One brigade had passed over on
the previous friday night, and q few had
gone over in the morning, but as the baggage
train was crossing the bridge broke under the
weight Of one of the wagons-fortunately near
the commencement Of the bridge, however,
This part had not been properly strengthened.
The mules splashed about, and the two leaders
were drowned in the rapid current The bridge
appeared quite frail, but am informed that
except at this end tits quite substantial Sew.
eral boats were fortunately at hand and these
were anchored, and beams thrown across and
planks placed upon them, and after about four
hours delay the whole was placed in good con-
dition. This was quite fortunate, however.
for as they were called back to Winchester Il
was we'll that they were saved the advance Of
four hours and the return over the same route.
which they would have made had the bridge
been in good order.
People crowded the streets to see the SOL

very novel sight, for though they had seen SOL
