The Navy De 2sTtdieRt has received Intelligence
from Rear AdrIirAI Lee that on the 81 day of June
this United 'StAtes steamer Victoria, commanded
BY Acting Master Alfred EVsrGon, stationed on
Wilmington, N. c., disc ove-ed steamer running
in. He Immediately gave chNs and opened hrei
and soon drove her ashore.
Captain Everson then dlrpAtehe,t two boAts' uh
der command OF Acting Masters Mat VIM MOODY
and Acting Third AsSiStAnt Engineer Thomas
Hineline, with instructions to burn b er, which
they accomplished, capturing twenty ine pti'
sons, fourteen having escaped.
She proved to be the GeorsiAna MeCsw, Lv'
erpool, from Nassau, with = cargo OF army cloth
ing. She is paddle wheel steamer Of 373 tons
and was formerly the Dundalk. She left Ii yer
pool April 10.
At daylight the enemy opened FIRE on the beAr d
Ing party from Fort ChSwell and adj AGENT batteriel
when they had to retire.
The enemy boarded her at 10 O'Clock a. IN. and
extinguShed the IRE. She lies within range OF the

We captured from her two chronometors, one

That bird of Ill omen, Clement l.. Vallan-
dlgham, has made his appearance in Ohio.
Scarcely had the One Hundred Days regiments
marched out of the State when vallandigham
marches In and makes defiant speech.
The object of this last coppcrhead movement
is apparent. The Government is bending it's
energies to the work of capturing Richmond
and Atlanta, and in order to frustrate those
objects NallandiChtNm Ia sent over the border
to make diversion in the rear.
1t has been suspected that the Knights Of the
their darling by for ce; but that plan has been
postponed in view of the opportunity offered
for carrying out t,aeir designs by the with.
drawal OF the volun teers from the State. 1t is
quite evident that V. V.lllandigham's errand Is to
provoke civil war in. Ohio, in the expectation
that that would nee .ssitato the recall Of many
troops from the field, and thus weaken the
armies operating un der Lieut.. Gen. Grant. II
would seem, too, that Vallandlgham and the
rebel Morgan were acting In conjunction
One makes his appearance In Kentucky
numbering, burning, and destroying, an abou
the same time the OF her appears In Ohio, defy
ing the authorities to. arrest him. II !s eviden
that the traitors in nfflliation with Vallandig
ham either believe that their secret organiza
tion is strong enouiy yh to resist the Government
or else they hope 10 have free run in OhlC
for time, because of the preoccupatlon of tn
Government in mi IRE important affairs than tn
movements OF a ingle rebel.
! II Ia probable that Vallandipham will be ar
rested by the pro per authorities in due course
and that this last: hsnking movement OF tn
rebels will come to naught.

omc.Ts Escaping from Dixie.

Tho Chattanooga GdEstts of the sth says:
-Four Federal officers arrived here on Monday,
having jumped from the cars near Millen, be-
tween Augusta and Macon, Ga. Their names
are Capt. wilkins, 1l2th Illinois; Capt. Muir
ray, I'd East Tennessee infantry; Lieut.. Jones,
OF the same regiment; and Lieut.. O'Connor,
59th Ohio infantry. These officers, with several
hundred others, were being transferred from
Libby prison to Macon, to prevent their cap
ture by Grant. They escaped by making saw
out OF the back OF a common table-knife, and
saving . hole in the side of the car. They
jumped out when the cars were running at the
rate OF ten miles per hour.
The following officers escaped In the same
way, and are expected here every day; Capt.
Warren, 9Th East Tennessee infantry; Lieut..
Crawford, Cd East Tennessee infantry; Lieuts.
Clifford, smyth, and Ewling, 10Th U. s. infsn-
try. The officers already mentioned as having
arrived here were about twenty days reaching
the Federal lines.
Capt. wilkins and the officers with him were
In a terribly destitute condition when they ar
rived, so far as regards clothing. They had
Confederate money, but the poor white folks
nor the negroes would have nothing to do with
1t. They report the woods and holows as full
OF citizens In North Georgia, who are well
armed, and VOW they will not join the rebe
service. They shoot those who attempt to ar
rest them. Capt. Wilkins escaped once before
(with Col. strelghD but was recaptured wher

Up TO the hour of going to press we have
nothing official relative to the movements Of
our armies before Richmond.
According to programme the Army OF the
Potomac has undoubtedly crossed the James
river, and swept the country Of rebels in the

Smith ere this, with the 18th corps, has oh.
talned possession Of the line of railroad lead
ing from Petersburg to Richmond, and will
push on to possess aud cut the Dnnvillc road,
If Kautz has not already done so.
Hunter, with Crooks and Ayerill's COM
mands-sheridan cooperating on another

knot, reducing the supplies OF Richmond, and
tightening the anaconda embrace upon rebel
dom, now so feArfully apparent.
We learn that while Grant was transporting
one corps of his troops to the James by water,
and marching the Army of the Potomac by q
clrcuitous route, to place of crossing on that
river, the unsuspecting and vlrtuous Lee was
at Malvern Hill, waiting for Grant to come tc

not before the war, but that now he was OPP

The rebel officers deprecated this, and remarked
that Mcclellan was the best man we (the Fe l.
