sDuring the afternoon of the lombard

kerchiefs waved out of the windows OF

for flag of truce, and the Chief Of Artlll-
cry was on the point Of causing the shell

decided that it was probably merely only
the wonted rebel ruse, and ordered opera

the demonstrations were made by two of

that we should send over boat and con-
vey them away from fredericksburg.

the bombardment was large British flag,
Aving over the house of the English Con-

found in his house when we entered the

The Negro Colonization Scheme.

Senator Pomeroy intends to take out
FIVE hundred negroes as his first colo
nists and to sail about the 5th of Octo
Der. The expedition will land at
Chiriqui, on the 1sthmus, two hundred
miles north of As pinwall and the Pana-
ma railroad If no objection is made
by the Chiriqui government on their
arrival, a landing will be made in
Chiriqui Lagoon. Itobjection is made,
or if the mining and agricultural pros
poets are not good, the colony will go
elsewhere and settle, in the language
of the paper of permission from this
government, "at any point within the
tropics"
Senator Pomeroy has a letter from
the President, charging him to "main-
tain the honor Of the Republic abroad" ;"
The expedition will be supplied with
provisions furnished by government,
which will be dealt out AS rationS du-
ring the voyage and thereafter, until
the first crop shall have been gathered.
[. is the intention to make the colony
self supporting.
The government will give each adult
unmarried man twenty acres, to every
family of five persons forty acres, to
every family of over five persons eighty
acres.
Coal crops out in places, and must
prove Invaluable, as the article is now
carried in large quantities to Aspin-
wall from Pennsylvania. The country
is well adapted to cotton, corn, cocoa,
rice, coffee, and fruits, and potatoes
grow wild. Senator Pemeroy has re-
ceived more than one thousand letters,
from all parts Of the North, written by
persons making inquiries, or offering
to join the expedition.

The result shows that Beanregard was
wise in recommending thesremoval from
columbus to Island No. 10. Com. Foote
himself testiies that the position is stronger
than that at Columbus. For six DAYS now
he has been pouring his shells in tl6ou the
island, and though not without decided ef-
tect, the enemy is not yet driven out. But
however the slow the progress may be the
result is certain. No works whichftbe reh
els can have constructed can withstand the
terrible bombardmeAt to which they are
exposed. 1t appears, too, by the Memphis
papers that the rebels had counted ON bold
ing New Madrid as part of their plan
of defence. They deemed the works thetn
impregnable. They expected that theyy
should be enabled TO maintain unimpeded
the ivercOmmhnfeatfoB between theislaud
and Memphis: But Gen. Pope irterfefed
with their calculati0ns. By SEEKING New
Madrid and the heavy ordnance there le
gained command of the river in the rear of
the rebels, and their gunboats and trans
ports are unable to pass his batteries. He
has sunk one of them. Our mortar boats
lie OIL out of range and pound away at
their leisure. The hint Of Foote respecting
'other events seems to indicate that an
attack by a land force may be expected, or
