FROM FORTRESS MONROE.
NORFOLK CAPTURED!

WASHINGTON, May II. The following
was received at the War Department this
morning:
Fortress Monroe, May 1O-l2 O'Clock,
midnight. Norfolk is ours, and also Ports
mouth and the Navy Yard.
General Wool having completed the land
ing of his forces at Willoughby Point about
8 o'clock this morning, commenced his march
on Norfolk with 5000 men. Secretary Chase
accompanied the general. About five miles
from the landing place a rebel battery was
found on the opposite side of the bridge
over Tanners Creek and after firing a few
discharges upon two companies of infantry
that were in the advance, the rebels burned
the bridge. This compelled our force to
march around five miles further.
At 5 o'clock in the afternoon our forces
were within short distance Of Norfolk, and
were met by a delegation of citizens. The
city was formally surrendered. OR troops
were marched in, and now have possession.
Gen Viele is in command as Military Cover
nor. The city and navy yard we're not turn
ed. The fires which had been seen for some
hours proved to be woods Oh fire. Gen
Wool, with Secretary Chase, returned about
II o'clock to night. Gen Huger withdrew
his forces without battle. The Merrimac
is still off Seweirs Point. Commander Rodg-
ers' expedition was heard from this after
noon ascending the James river. The IRON
clad steamer Galena had sunk the rebel stea-
mer Yorktown and captured the jamestown.
Reports from Gen Mcclellan are favorable.
(Signed) EDWIN NJ. STANTON,
Secretary of War.

As the Editor is absent for few days, the
next in rank. the p d, begs the indul-
gence Of the readers of the CAL. for any err
rors, Of omission CT commission, which may
occur in its columns. The perfect deluge of
Union victories which have occurred the past
week furnish abundance of subject matter for
editorial but, believing that our readers will
be better satisfied with simple narration Of
facts than with any remarks we might VEN
,ure, We defer the editorial until next week.
Every loya! heart beat more freely and hope
fully as the news reached US by telegraph Of
the capture OF Norfolk by Union force from
Fortress Monroe, under Gen Wool; the de-
struction by fire Of the Merrmac; the cap
ture by the /. S. iron-clad steamer Galena OF
the rebel steamer jamestown, and the sink
ing Of her consort, the Yorktown; the con-
tinued pursuit of the flying rebel army to
New Kent Court House about - miles from
Richmond, and the defeat of the rebel fotilla
on the Mississippi, who made desperate at
tack on Com Foote's fleet of gunboats-tem-
porarily commanded by Capt {. H. Davis
As We glance over this list of victories by the
| Mon forces, We can but conclude that the
rebel backbone, it not completely broken
must be terribly shattered.
