From Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, April 9.-The Old Point boat has
arrived. She left Fortress Monroe about 3 o.
clock last night.
The Merrimac Is confidently expected, with
seven other gunboats, on the first favorable day
Weather cold and foggy.
Latest news from Yorktown by telegraph, the
9th, is that everything is progressing tavorably
and battle is not expected within day or two
The Americans special correspondence says:
The storm which arose. Monday afternoon, and
continued through Tuesday doubtless prevented
the Merrimac coming out as she attended
She is now looked for confidently as soon as
the weather permits.
A gentleman who was on board the steamer
Rancocus when she went up with flag of truce
on Monday, says the Merrimac was then lying of
Craney Island.
The Yorktown, jamestown, Teazer and foul
small tugs, were in company with her, all under
steam.
No particular change in the appearance of the
Merrlmac was noticed.
1t was the impression of those on board the
Rancocus that the whole feet were on ther way
down when the flag OF truce appeared
The storm must have been severely felt in the
army now advancing up the Peninsula, deprived
as they are TO great extent of shelter and tents
and compelled To constant watchfunes, in thu
face of the enemy.
The roads, none too good before, will b,
brought TO horrible condition, and the public
must not be impatient in expecting early result;
In this direction.

WASHINGTON April 9-The following was re-
ceved at the Navy Department this morning,
dated flag ship Benton, Island No. 10. April 3:
TO Hon Gideon Weiles, Secretary Of the Nary:
have to inform the Department that since |
sent the intelligence last night, announcing the
surrender to me of Island No 10, possession has
been taken both OF the Island and the works
upon the Tennessee shore, by the gunboats and
the troops under Gen. Buford.
Seventeen officers and 36S privates, besides 100
OF their sick and 100 men employed on board the
transports, are in our hands, unconditional pris-
oners of war. | have caused hasty examina
ton to be made Of the forts, batteries and NUM-
tons of war captured. There eleven earth
works. with seventy heavy cannon varying in
calibre from 80 to 100 pounders The magazines
are well supplied with powder, and there are
large quantities of shot and shell and othor mu-
IitiOns of war, and also great quantities of pro
visions.
-Four steamers aAoat have fallen into our
hands, and two Others, with the rebel gunboat
Grampus, are sunk, but will be easily raised The
floating battery of sixteen heavy guns turned
adrift by the rebels, is said TO be lying on the
Missouri shore below New Madrid
The enemy on the main land appear 10 have
fed with great precipitation after dark last night
leaving in many cases half-prepared meals in
their quarters. There seems TO have been no
concert of action between the rebels on the ISL
and those occupying the shore. but the latter
fed leaving the former 10 their fate.
These works were erected with the highest en-
gineerng skill, are of great strength, and with
their natural advantages would have been i'm
pregnable if defended by men fighting in better
cause.
A combined attack of the naval and land forces
would have taken place this afternoon or 20 NOR
row morning had not the rebels so hastily aban-
doDed this stronghold
To mature the plans of attack absolutely re-
quired twenty three days of preparation
Gen. Pope is momentarily expected to arrive

boats which 50 CALAMITY ran the fire of the rebel

and reduced a fort OF the enemy opposite, dis
mounting eight heavy guns.
