honor to inform the department that since

surrender to me OF Island No, 10, possession
has been taken both of the island and works
upon the Tennessee shore by the gunboats
and the troops under Gen. Butord Seven
teen officers and 1858 prvates, besides 100 sick
and 100 men employed on board transports in
our hands, are unconditional prisoners OF war.
l have caused a hasty examination OF the
forts, etc, captured. There are eleven earth
works, seventy heavy cannon, ranging from
thirty-two to one hundred Founders, rifled
The magazines are well supplied with powder,
and there are large quantities of shot, shell,
and other munitions Of war, also great quaint
ties OF provisions.
-Four steamers afloat have fallen into our
hands, and two others, with the rebel gunboat
Grampus, are suns, but can be easily raised.
The floating battery OF sixteen guns, turned
adrlft by the rebels, is said to be lying on the
Missouri shore below New Madrid.
The enemy upon the main land appeared to
have fed with great precipitation after dark
last night, leaving in many cases half prepared
meals in their quarters. There seems to have
been no concert Of action between the rebels
upon the island and those occupied on the
shore, but the latter fed, leaving the former
to their fate These works were erected with
the highest engineering skill, and are Of great
strength, and, with their natural advantages,
would have been impregnable II defended by
men fighting in a better cause.

WASHINGTON, April 9.-The secretary of
war has submitted tn congress communlca'
ton on theanorthern coast defenCes, enclosing
an elaborate report, from E Twin f. Johnson
OF Connecticut, well known as practical civil
engineer, aud connected with the joint com
mission of 1917 and 1919, for running ard
marking the northeastern boundary line. Mir.
Johnson recommends the passage Of Senator
MOrrl's bill, and the adoption of the policy
of placing in the hands OF the president the
necessary power to accept loans OF money
from the several states for public defence as
therein proposed Among the modes of de
fence contemplated is the use of railways and
of floating ball-proOi batteries, in addition TO
the ordinary system of Notifications. His re-
port is the result Of careful examination OF all
the matters in question, including long list
of documents based on a thorough acqualnt-
ance with the physical geography and topo-
graphical iiatness of the country.
james S. Pike, minister to the Netherlands,
in transmitting to the state department copy
of the tariff and revenue system Of that coun.
try, concludes his dispatch as follows 1T
will be observed that there is no direct tax on
personal property or income, as such taxes are
believed to stand in the way of industrial and
commercial development and ito operate to
expel capital The late decisive successes of
the federal government in Tennessee have
produced their natural effect on this side of tile
water. When Charleston and Savannah shall
have fallen, and our gunboats traverse the
Mississippi river, all interest in the affairs of
the coniederates will cease in Europe"
About two weeks ago, Commodore Foote,

General Pope intended to make transverse
