CALCULATIONS were rendered to her
brave officers for their successful ach-
ievement. Gen. Pope and Mr.. Scott,
Assistant Secretary, visited Capt. Wal
kpr on board his boat, and escorted him
ashore, where he was received at
headquarters with many cheers. The
sailors were welcomed by the army
with extravaganza demonstrations.
Mr.. o. Il. Fishback, of the Missou-
RI Democrot, was on the Carondelet
while running the blockade, and to
him we are mainly indebted for the
above particulars.
The arrival of the Carondelet at
New Madrid was most opportune, as
without her our boats were hemmed
in by the rebel batteries, rendering ii
impossible for Gen. Pope to cross the
river. The next morning the gun
boats Carondelet and Pittsburg pro-
cccded by order to the points selected
by Gen. Pope for his forces to land,
and in two hours three rebel batteries
were silenced and their guns spiked.
At III O'clock the first division Of four

Paine, crossed the river, followed by
Gen. SANKEY'S division under General
Granger. The whole operation OF
crossing the river, in face of the enc

A New Madrid despatch of the Stl

to-day 5000 Confederate prisoners
who were endeavoring to retreat from
Island No. 10 and other rebel fortified.
tons. Their Generals and other Off
GERS were taken with them. General
MCGOWAN was in command, assisted
by Generals Stewart, Mccall, Gray
and Gavitt. Gen. Stewart was a
classmate of Gen. Pope's.
The rebel battery Pelican came
drifting down the river, aud was
caught and lowed into Point Pleasant,
where it now lies. Some shots were
fired into it from our batteries as it
passed them, under the impression
that some rusc was attempted by the
enemy, in thus giving up an engine of
war which was intended to accom-
plish marvellous results. No one was
on board, and no damage was done to
the machine. A gunboat also drifted
down nearly to the upper fort, where
it sunk, and is now almost out of
sight, the smoke stacks and some of
the machinery only being visible.
The steamer Ohio Belle, which the
rebels stole last summer and transfer
red to the Confederate service, was
scuttled by them and sent adrift. She
was caught, however, and brought ia
shore just as she was sinking.
She has since been pumped out, and
is now ready for use.
Two hundred hogsheads of sugar,
several hundred barrels of molasses,
so cannon, 400 wagons, 1875 horses,
600 mules, 5000 stand of small arms,
80 pieces light artillery, and great
quantity of blankets, clothing, &C.,
nave fallen into our hands.
About 5000 solid shot and immense
quantities of ammunition were also
taken. The total value of the proper
ty captured at No. 10 amounts to
over $4,000
The prisoners are being embarked
as rapidly as possible for Illinois.
Hon. Emerson Etheridge arrived at
Cairo on the 9Th. To him the news of
our success is specially grateful. His
residence is 25 miles southeast of
Hickman. Gen. Strong will send an
escort with him to his home to ensure

friends will greet his arrival with q
glorious welcome.
