ed by the San Jacinto. Susquehanna, Mt
Vernon, Seminole, and Dacotah. In the
meantime two tugboats were seen comm =
on towards the Fortress a. full speed
and when nearing the wharf, the radiant
countenance of Capt Case, of the Mime
sofa, gave the assurance that the news
they brought was of most gratifying
character.
The repor. was true.
All the earthworks at Craney Island
appeared to BE abandoned, though the
rebel flag was still flying.
! Lieut.. EIdridge. from the Dragon, land
ed with an armed crew, took down the
rebel flag and substituted the stars and
stripes, amid the hearty cheering of the
crew.
Captain Case, arriving, reported the
fact TO the Presiden and Secretary OF War,
who received the confirmation of the pick
ct boats report with great satisfaction.
At the Request of the President. Captain
Case Immediately proceeded to Craney
Island 10 ascer ain if the works were evac
uated. In company with the fleet which
was then advancing, as we nealed Crauey
Island, we found this immense fortress
apparently abandoned. though three rebel
flags were floating from very TIL stalls in
different points of the works Capt. Case
was the first loyal man that pressed his
foot on The soil Of this reasonable strong
hold, and the old lag was soon given to
the breeze
The forts on the island are in four or
five separate sections. They are con-
structed with the best engineering skill
and most admirable workmanship. The
forts were left IN excellent condition. as
were also The extensive barracks, which
had accommodated. during TIE winter, a
garrison Of owe: 1900 men.
Forty heavy guns were mounted in diff
fereut parts Of the works.
On the main point of The island the
works commanded the approach OF the
channel to the river.
The whole number Of guns mounted
were 80. OF which two were PARROTS, and
a lumber of Dahlgreens. There were
about six guns in the fort which had not
been mounted.
After spending one hour on the Island
we proceeded to Norfolk. From men
found on the Island we ascerlained that the
Merrlmac had laid during Saturday at a
point nearly mile below the head Of the
Island. Durdg the night she had been
brought back and ran ashore Her entire
officers and crew wee landed on the Is

All. Gen. Rslxer,s Report.

A correspondent Of the Cincinnati Daily
Gazette, writing from Columbus, Ohio, speaks
thus Of the late Report of Adjutant General
Baker,:
''The Adjutant General of Iowa makes o
valuable Report by publishing the names Of
oil the privates in-the Iowa Regiments. He
has printed the naster-rolls, showing the let
ter Of the Company, number Of the Regiment,
name and age of the soldier, place of birth,
place Of residence, and when enlisted. Is not
that just, as well as patriotics Thees are re-
trenchment times, to be sure, but have not tho
heroes Of the ranks as good right to immor-
tality in print as the commissioned oficerss--
In the Ohio Adjutant Generals Report only
the names of commissioned officers are record
ed. Should not Ohio do as great honor to its
sacrificing soldiers as the young State Of
Iowa. bsRs
The value Of this Report may be also esti-
mated by the cagerness with which il is sought
by the people in all parts Of the State. The
military affairs Of Iowa were in worse condi.
tion than those Of any other Free State at the
commencement Of this war. The Governor
and the Adjutant General had to build from the
.boots, up" but with the cooperation Of the
General Assembly and the people they have
brought a force into the field which will COM
pare in all honorable respects with the troeps
Of any section Of the Union. A complete his
tory Of t16oe military movements may be found
in Gen. Bakers Report and it is . matter Of
pride to US that the book, 10 properly appre.
dated outside, as well inside Of the State.--
