BALTIMORE, Feb. 13 The Old Point boat has
arrived and brings the following news:
FORTRESS MONROE, Feb. 12.-No flag Of truce
to-day, there being no arrival from Hatteras.
AS the steamer Express was coming down from
Newport News this morning, on her regular trip,
man was picked up In a small boat, who lef,
Norfolk yesterday morning and made his escape
from Sewall's Point in a small boat He confirms
all previous reports, and adds that Norfolk hau
been placed under martial law, and that volun-
teers to defend the city are being called for in
vain. Work on the Merrimac was stopped on
Saturday last, and she is now at the navy yard
drawing so much water that she could not get
out even II she was ready for sea.
The greatest alarm prevails at Norfolk; an at
tack is momentarily expected. There are said to
be only about 200 troops at Sewall's Point A
rumor is circulated at Norfolk that the defeat a,
Roanoke Island was owing to the treachery OF the
North Carolina troops.
The Sawyer gun at Newport News burst yester-
day afternoon while being fred, and Privates Jo-
siah Jones, Of Company ID, and James Shepard,
Of Company B, 29th Massachusetts, regiment, were
instantly killed, and w. w. Bowman, Company

recovery is not expected. Jones belonged in
Greenport, Long Island, Shepard In Lowell,
Mass. Their bodies are sent north tonight via
Baltimore. -Four or five other persons who were
in the vicinity were injured, but none seriously.
