CAPTURE OF PR1zEs.-On the 18th of June the
q. S. Steamer Lackapana captured the rebel
steamer Neptune off Mobile. She had thrown all
her cargo overheard before the LackQ,cana came
nm with her. On the next day the same U. S.
vessel captured the rebel steamer Planter, from
Mobile for Havana, with 65 bales of cotton and l25
barrels of turpentine on toard. Acting Master B.
Van Worries brought the Planter here for repairs,
and she will probably 60 north in the course OF
week. The Planter is high pressure river boat
and resembles the rebel rams very much. She had
started tor the north, but was obliged to put back
here for repairs. She created quite futtering
among our fleet at Bull Bay and here who suppos-
ed her rebel marine monster come to tight them.

miles distant where Gen. GiIlmore's headquarters
were, and immense elongated shells thrown into
it. Nearly every one burst in the immediate Vi
cnity of headquarters. One man was killed and
several severely wounded we hear of no other
casualties there; but at the front some were
wounded. Tuesday all was tolerably quiet, with
the exception ofsome shcling on both sides. We
are rapidly constructing batteries and defences,
principally by night, and are succeeding admirably.
Among the prisoners we captured, was Lieut. Bee,
son of the Mayor Of New Orleans, and nine other
commissioned officers, with 1l3 privates. They
all seemed rather pleased than sorry with their cap
tvty, for their circumstances are greatly improved.
Gen Terry's Division is on James Island, having
landed from Stono river They have had no fight
as yet, but in slight skirmish the pckets killed
two rebel cavalry. They will be heard from in
due time.

this Island from Co. G, Sd S. c., Cavalry. They
were from rebel picket station six miles this side
of Bluffton. They are both Germans and quite In
telligent and left because they were heartily dis
pusted with the rebel cause. They brought their
revovers and belts but nothing else; they escaped
in dug-out with large hole in the bottom, and
one bailed water out, while the other rowed. They
say the I'd battalion of this cavalry regiment are

Later from Europe.

New York, May 1.-THE city of New
York, from Liverpool, arrived at midnight.
A deputatiOn of trades unionlsts, headed by
Mr.. Bright, presented to Mr.. Adams an ad-
dress adopted at late meeting sympathiZing
with the north. Mr.. Adams made speech
expressing great pleasure at the reception adj
dress. He admitted the difficulty of steering
clear of collision with the two nations, but
trusted that friendly relations would be main
iained. He asserted that Notwithstanding the
tone of some American speakers and journ-
ais, there is no nation for which Americans
entertain greater regard than England, and
If the real sentiments Of each people could be
clearly established to each other he would
have no fear of collision. He believed the
trades unionists had taken the right course to
produce such an understanding.
The Times looks on Mr. Adams speech as
most reasonable and timely, and looks for
ward without mstrust for mutual torbearance.
England must eXpectinterruptions to trade, land
Americans must tolerate some short comings
in consideration OF the difficulties of neutrals.
In another article the Times argues that il

proceedings Of Wilkes, in view of the main
tenance Of her own rights when she becomes
belhgerent.

Row on SUNDAY MoRNING.-A gang of some
fifteen or twenty persons succeeded in creating
quite a disturbance of the peace on Sunday morn
ing, commencing in house kept by Mrs. Mary
Rice, No. Al Mechanic street, where they had ev
identity been having '.jolly good time" They
were discovered there by the watchmen little
past midnight, mating certain loud vocal de
monstrations which indicated that liquor had
been somewhat freely imbibed. The watchmen,
in the exercise Of their authority, called upon
them TO desist and dispense quietly to their sew
eral homes but instead of obeying, as good
peacesble citizens should, the party inside the
house indicated a disposition to show fight with
the police. BY the intercession of a third party,
one of the neighbors, who appeared to have in
fiuence with the persons in the house, and in
duced them TO promise to leave quietly and go
home, they were allowed TO go home with that
understanding.
Instead of doing as they had promised, however
most of the party, soon after leaving the house,
began again to conduct themselves in disorder

city, having just left the house. He succeededin

A TALE OF Two CITIES, by Charles Dick
ems, has been published in two volumes, by
Sheldon & Co., New York. in continuation
of the very beautiful and convenient ''House-
hold Edition" of Dickens works. 1t is in all
respects, the neatest, handsomest and best
edition of his works that has been issued by
any publisher, here or in England and at
the same time it is not expensive. The il
Illustrations in the ''Tale of Two Cities" are
quite as fine as any of those in the pre-
ceding Volumes and in other respects the
promise made when the first volumes were
issued, is fully kept. 1t is far better to buy
this attractive edition of Dickens, and read
his stories for the third, fourth, fifth, twen-
tieth time, than to buy and read indiscrim-
inately the "new novels" as they are issued.
