FROM RICHMOND.


The Baltimore American has dispatch
from C. C. Fulton. Esq. at Fortress Monroe,
which says the rebel flag Of truce steamer
Schultz, with Commissioner Ould and Capt
Hotche arrived at City Point on Sunday
Two citizen prisoners were brought down by
the Schultz and put on board the New York
They are both Marylsnders. One Of them
1Mr. A. Brengle) was captured at Middle
town, on the goth Of June last, while acting
as voluntary assistant to the Sanitary Com
mission; and the other George w. Lang
ley) was captured while driving wagon for
the Sanitary Commission on the 9th Nov,
near Charlottesville. They brought excit-
ng news from Richmond, which they repre-
sent was in state of the most feverish ex
element from Saturday until Sunday after
noon, when they left. At midnight on Sat-
urday night the bells of the city were rung,
and the people went rushing through the
streets crying "to arms to arms - " the
Yankees are coming" During the remain
der Of the night there was an intense commo-
ton everywhere. The Home Guard was call
ed out and the tramp Of men could be heard
in all directions. Women and children were
hurrying to and fro, and there was such a
panic as Richmond never before witnessed
On Sunday morning there was no abate-
ment in the excitement. The men were all
ordered to the defenses and every citizen
armed and placed in guard over the prisoners.
The excitement among the prisoners to know
the cause of all this common became intense.
IL was soon ascer tanned that Richmond was
actually threatened 6y tue Yankees. When
the prisoners were leaving the alarm bells
were again furously ringing. The prisoners
left amid a scene of the creates turmoil aud
confusion, such as they had never seen be-
fore in the city. The rumors that prevailed
were conflicting and wild. 1t was their i'm
preston that from 5000 to 10000 cavalry
would have but lettle difficulty in entering
the city and liberating the Union prisoners,
destroying the fortifcations and public pro-
perty before any sufficient force could be
brought up to prevent it, and retire by the
peninsula. For several days previous to the
alarm the troops in and around Richmond,
to the number of 1000, were sent off to Lee
with great dispatch, the impression prevail
ing that movement Was contemplated by
Gen. Meade. In this they were right, as
during the progree OF the excitement on
Sunday intelligence was received that Gen.
Meade hid crossed the Rapidap.
requisluon has been made on Captain
Potter for boots for the colored regiment at
Quincy, Ill. The sizes were so enormous
that they could not be procured in Chicago,
aud the captain had to telegraph to Washing
ton to know what was to be done. He was
ordered to have the regmental feet measured
and send the result to Washington, so that
the boots could be constructed there. The
sizes range from los 10 20's, This regiment
will be apt to "lrample on the rights of the

FROM NORTH CAROLINA.

The following is an account of the capture
and destruction of the gunboat Underwater
at Newbern. It was the only war vessel
stationed there:
1.-The rebels took two launches and several
boats by railroad from Wilmington to Kins
ton, and placing them in the Neuse river,
put on board some two hundred men. The
boats were sent down the river at night, and
the crew Of the Underwater were complete
ly surprised The gunboat was captured
without resistance; two of the crew escaped
by swimming
The rebels attempted 10 slip the cable, but
the noise they made aroused the garrison of
Fort Anderson, near which the gunboat lay.
The guns Of the fort were opened upon the
vessel, when the rebels set her on FIRE and
took to their boats She burned two or three
hours, making splendid sight, but finally
an explosion Of the magazine put an end to
the scenev
