Cruise OF the q. 4. steamer Mcrcedifa'

This fine steamer arrived at this port on Saturday
morning. having LEFT Key West on the %oth oil july
She went in commission Dec 5, 1861, at Brooklyn
Navy-Yard, and after eight months active service
returns for some slight repairs, which could not be
made ut Kew West. She has been three months on
blockadng duty and four months in very active
cruising, during which time her crew have attained a
veFy high proficiency Of drill with snlaarmF, bat
terry and other exercises
For some time she was stationed off Pas rOutre,
in company with the gunboat Winona, where by
their unceasng activity they prevented any oil the
numerous fleet of steamers at New'Orleans from
leaving with their valuable cargoes, by that pass.
Observations were made almost daily in tug boats
from New-Oreans of the chances of escape through
this psss One attempt was made to run three
vesscls ont but they were forced 10 10 run ashore
aud destroyed by burning. AT ,his pass she was
join,d by the steamer Brooklyn. and they succeeded
in capturing the valuable steamer Magoolia. -.
At the Time OF the formation Of tie TWO Gull
squadrons, this vessel was attached TO the eastern
division, and ordered to Apalacbicola.
The particulars of the capture of ihis place, to-
gether with seven vessels three of which were
burnedl by this vessel and the gnmboat Sycamore,
have been made public. This event placed in onr
possession one of the most important points III
/ lpfua.
Proceeding 10 Key West, che was assigned TO
crnsing-ground oil Abaca, where In four months
she cat iured three vessels OF aggregate value OF
81 100000, among them the notorious Bermuda, and
earned for herself the title of the Terror Of the
Cult"
Tie health Of the officers and crew has been good.
Her repairs will probably be completed in two or
three weeks, when il is presumed she will reJoin the
Cult Squadron.
On tie passage from Key West she spoke the fol-

Catlin with Dr.. Sloan and staff on board, visited
the prize bark Harriet Rail-, which has been lying
in Tie stream. opposite Castle William, ever since
Saturday, with 81 discharged men from the 3lst
Massachusetts, snd one man from the Eth Connecii-
cut on board. The prize master refused to give up
their baggage, and the men declined to leave the
vessel without it. How long these men will be de-
tanned on board, is a question which depends upon
the efficient movements Of our Custom-House
officers.
After leaving the prize vessel, the tug hauled up
alongside the Mississippi, just arrived from Hilton
Head and lying in the stream opposite the Bat
terry. She had on board 81 men, in charge Of an
officer, on their way to their regiments. few OF
