Will our friends, the Madison Artillery,
accept this little Flag as token of our high
esteem? We regret that it is not in our pow
err to have it larger, but knowing the difficult
ty in obtaining material, we hope you will
overlook that deficiency. May it wave above
you in the hour of danger and be as guar
dian angel to shield and protect those who
are lighting fer homes, friends and Liberty,
and may the career of the Company be ever
bright and successful, and the Flag be but
another link in the chain that shall bind you
to your soldier home, Virginia.
Ever your friends,

posed to the fire of the rebel batteries barge
loaded with hay arranged in such manner to
protect her. The night being intensely dark and
stormy she passed the first battery before being
discovered. The second fred on her as soon as
its guns could be brought to bear, but owing to
the darkness and speed with which she moved the
fire was totally harmless.
The third battery also concentrated its FIRE on
her, but not a shot struck the boat. She passed
the fourth and fifth batteries with the same for
tunate result. Fifty three shots were fred at
her. Three miles below the island the rebel
floating battery opened on her and continued
firing until the CorondeIet passed out of range.
All through the passage continuous fire of mus
kerry was kept up from the shore.
Many bullets struck the boat. ALI hands be-
ing below, nobody was hurt.
The Carondelet did not discharge gun during
the entire passage. She passed the last battery
within hour after leaving the feet.
telegram from the Island at O'Clock last
evening says very heavy firing was heard in the
direction of New Madrid
1t was thought tile Carondelet was engaged
with some rebel gunbOat; from one to eight heavy
reports were heard per minute.
Her escape from injury in running the block
ade is attributable 10 the fact that she Rugged
the shore Of the Island so closely that it was i'm
possible for the rebels to depress their guns saii
GENTLY to hit her.
There is great rejoicing throughout the fee,
