Wm. R. Dunn, of Gen. Jerry C, Sullivan's Staff, from Vicksburg on the 4th, bearer of dispatches from Gen. Grant to the War Department, bringing confirmation of Admiral Poster's dispatch stating that Vicks- burg had capitulated. A. F. Woodal, corres- pendent of the Cincinnati Gazette, was also a passenger on the Niagara from Vicksburg. From reliable sources I have been able to gather the- following particulars in regard to the closing scenes of the siege of Vicksburg: A flag of truce was received from the rebels upon July ist. It was for the purpose of ask- ing anescert for two Englishmen who had been long enough hemmed in the Confederacy, and eating mule beef enough to sink their idea of comfort. Gen. Grant readily granted Pember- ton’s request. The English subjects were not detained longer than necessary, They came and went unquestioned. On the previous day the rebels had made an unsuccessful sortie upon the works on our left, meaning to drive our soldiers out of their rifie-pits. We had one man wounded. The Confgderates losttwo lieutenants and twelve privates captured, eight of the latter deserted and came off with us. On this day Johnston was reported only twenty miles off. Ourmen were in line of battle to re- ceive this attack. His main force fronted on Haines’ Bluff. On Friday morning, the 3d, another fiag of truce came into our lines, reaching first the tent of General A. J. Smith. It was brought by two Confederate officers, dressed in the most festive attire. They proved to be Major- General Bowen, late commander at Grand Gulf and a Virginia Colonel named Montgom- oy. They rode splendid animals, but rather thin in the flesh even for racers. The messen- ge were blindfolded and seated in General ‘arnbridge’s tent, where fortwo hours they remained awaiting the return of Gen. Smith, who took their ate percnes from Pemberton to General Grant. heir eyes were unbandaged after an hour and they conversed freely with the Union officers. One of the messengers said iron had been thrown into the city in quantities sufficient to stock immense foundries there; enough left to build monuments for all the cit- izens and soldiers fallen. When Gen. Smith returned to Burbridge’s uarters the two Contederate officers received Tant’s response, and were again hoodwinked and conducted by an officer toa safe point, from which they could re-enter their wa linea: These messengers were weld dressed in uni- forms of gray, wore dashing devil-may-care Zouave caps, and had but little gold lace upon their uniforms. hey ook had the golden star on the collar of their ceats, designating their rank. There was great curiosity, of course among all the officers and soldiers, to learn the contents of Pemberton’s dispatches. This was finally gratified. The rebel general had seen fit tointimate that unnecessary effusion ef blood and less of precious life might be prevented b: a briet cessation of hostilities, uring whicl time commissioners might be appointed to agree upon proper terms for the surrender of the city. He also intimated as a clincher that he could hold the place tor an indefinite period. Gen. Grant’s reply was very brief. It set forth that Pemberton had it in his power at any moment to stop bloodshed; the Commis- eioners were altogether unnecessary, as the only stipulations he could accept were in- cluded in the term “unconditional surrender.” It concluded with a deserved tribute to the bravery and endurance of the rebel garrison, and said if they surrendered he could promise that all shonid be treated with the courtesy due to prisoners of war. The 1ebel messengers had not long been gone, when Pemberton sent again for a personal in- terview with Grant. It was prompuy granted. At3 p.m. on the same day, a conference took place in a fruit orchard located about midway between the fronts ot the two contending forces. ‘The scene was witnessed by thousands of Fed- erukand rebel soldiers, who, for the first time > Showed themselves with impunity ove the rifie-pits, and yet, during all those weeks they had been within a few yards of cach other. It was a remarkable scene. Gen. Grant came slowly to the place of ren- dezyous, smoking his cigar, and apparen uy the only unexcited person in the assemblage. What that General felt within could only be imagined. His stoical face did not reveal a clue to it. As Pemberton and Grant drew near e: other, both, as though involuntarily, paused, perhaps waiting each the first word from the other. This slight embarrassment was brought toaclose by Montgomery, who stepped for- ward and formally introduced the two Chief- tains. ‘They shook bands, Pemberton beingap- parently little disconcerted by the complacency of his opponent. These men, meeting thus after 3 long seige, in which they had been pitted against each other, had been lieutenants to- gether in thesame commands in many hard fought battles in Mexico. Hence they were personally known to each other. Seldom do such meetings occur ontside the pale of ro- mance. Pemberton’s first remark was that he had been present when different fortresses sur- rendered to the Federal arms in he war with Mexico. In all these the enemy were granted terms and conditions. He thought his armyus well entitled to these favors asa foreign foe. Grant listened, and then proposed a private conversation of a few moments. It struck Pemberton favorably, and the two generals stepped aside. What was said during that conference can only be judged from the results. After a little more than an hour terms were agreed upon, and the Confederates surren- dered. It was arranged that the Federal forces should enter at 10 a. m. next day, the Fourth of July. The rebels were all to be parolled on the spot, and surrender their arms, &c.; the officers were to be allowed to retain their horses: four days’ rations, to be taken trom the Confederate stores. This was certamly as much as General Grant could censent to. The prisoners are yet liable to exchange. It was policy, perhaps, not to subsist the rebels in so large number, or endeavor to transport them at once io the North. Our work is to pursue and punish, not to feed, and fetch and carry the enemy. From twenty thousand te thirty thousand Ermoners by this arrangement, fell into Grant’s ands, along with their small arms, the forts, defenses, guns &c., of the garrison at Vicks- butg. Cannon are plenty, and in quality equal to the best in the Confederacy. At 10 a. m., on the 4th, the truly glorious 4th, as had been agreed, Gen. Steele’s division marched into and garrisoned the city, the band playing national airs. Every soldier's heart was too full ior utterance, and the old Union emblem was floating above them. This flag was soon seen, in its own beloved colores, above the buildings where of late only the rebel ensigns had met the breeze.

The rebels hold Funkstown, two miles from Hagerstown, their lines extendiug to the Po- tomac and covering Williamsport. They are suid to be entrenching their position, Gen. Lee’s headquarters are at, Hagerstown. This morning a sharp ¢avalry skirmish took place on the Hagerstown road. We drove the rebels across Antietam creek, and pursued them three miles beyond, until their position at Funkstown was discovered. A considerable number of prisoners were captured, and severe punishmentinflicted upon the enemy. * General Lee is acting altogether on the de- fensive, and seems to desire to be let alone atl than to undertake any offensive opera- ns. There are indications throughout onr lines that General Meade intends to-morrow (Satur- day) to advance on the enemy in force and to compel him to give battle. The river is slowly falling, but will not be fordable for several days. The whole army és in excellent spirits, anda general confidence prevails among officers and men that the result will be a crowning victory to the army of the Potomac. The enemy cannot escape them, and the fight will doubtless be one of desperation on both sides. General Jenkins, of the rebel cavalry, avas captured yesterday, and sent to Frederick. fours, &c., c. Freperick, July 9, p. m.—;j Special corres- pondence Baltimore American. ]—General Lee’s trains are parked in the vicinity of Williams- si occupying the hills of the Conocheague valley, and defended by artillery in position. His whole number of Wagons, many taken from the farmers of the Valley, is believed to exceed three thousand innumber. Our caval- Ty discovered no evidences of his having any pontoon bridges at Williamsport, bat found he ‘was using scows to cross the river, probably conveying over his wounded, and bringing back supplies of ammunition. The Tiver is exceedirg high and the current very rapid. It is doubted whether pontoon bridges would be maintained in its present stage. There is little news from the front to-day. We aro in a state of expectation. The army ts well formed, probably the mass of it is beyond South Mountain, an immediately in front of theenemy. Our forces it is known are g0il in search of a fight, and ef course a battle is imminent. Some of the guid nuncs here give you the exact hour of its commencement, viz: ; 6. m. to-morrow (Friday). They are deep in | the confidence ot General Meade. My own | guess postpones it twenty-four hours, | The accounts that ceme in are ail concurrent as to the continued presence of Lee's army on this side of the river, and their inability to get across. A gentleman who arrived here from Hagerstown this morning says they are massed. in large force in the vicinity of that town, with their lines extending to the river. They must fight, and will no doubt give usa hard fight, but a victery for usseems a sure thing. I was led into an error in stating that the Third Co: wes tobe commanded by Gen. French. It is commanded by the gallant Gen. Birney, who won new honors by the style in which he fought it at Gettysburg. Gen. French commands a new corps, as yet I believe un- numbered. Asa matter of reference I subjoin alist of the Corps Commanders of the Army of the Potomac. First Corps—Major General Newton, vice Reynolds killed. Second Corps— Brigadier General Hays, probably temporarily, in place of General Hancock, wounded. Third Corps—Major General Birney. Fifth Corps—Major General Sykes. Sixth Corps—Major General Sedgwick. Eleventh Corps — Major General Howard. Twelfth Corps—Major General Slocum. Corps—Major General French. The insignia of the eorps, which officers and men wexr on their caps, is as follow: | Corps, a circle; Second, a trefoil; Thiri | mord or lozenge; Fifth, a Maltese cross Sixth, piain cross; Eleventh, a crescent; Twelfth, a siar. i I have not ceen the report of Gen. Double- | day’s ceath in the late battle contradicted. He was neither killed nor wounded. Since the battle he has been relieved trom command of the fir: i ion of the corps, at his own re- guest. Cause—the appointment of Gen. New- ton to the command of the cor SOUTHERN NEwWs Rebel Accounts of the Late Battles—+Lee Marching on Baltimore’*—+: Maryland Redeemed”’—TheR nond Papers have not yet Heard the +} ner We have Richmond papers of the7th and Pth. The Richmond Examiner of Tuesday, with dispatches from Murtinsbarg announcing Lee advancing on Baltimore, haying destroyed Gen. Meade’s army,and knowing nothing about thesurrenderof Vicksburg, exclaims: “Scarce. ly, if at all, second in importance, is the news ot Johuston’s operations ia the Valley of the Mississippi. Nothing is known of its details beyond the small circumstance that Banks had gotten back to New Orleans with only 5,000 loliowers, Whether Johnston has defeated Grant, or Banks alone, is not clear. The pro- bability is that our great captam, finding his force wholly inadequate to the task of pulling Grant out of his alattis and other fortifications, and knowing Vicksburg to be out of danger, left the enemy to butt his head on the bluffs, peunced on ks’ army, and just made an end of it. Sure we begin to see the dawn! If such glorious blessings as these are well used, what may we not hope?” Richmond papers as late as July & indicate an utter ignorance there of the disaster which has overtaken the rebel army under Lee. A dispatch from Winchester, dated the 3d, gives a report that it was marching toward Balti- more, having defeated Meade and captured 40,000 prisoners. Ignorance also apparently pauvatled regarding the surrender of Vicks- urg. The Richmond Dispatch speaks ih great con- fidence of the capture of Baltimore by General Lee, and adds: “The force to defend it consists entirely of militia, many of them butill-atfected; and they have within the cif a deadly enemy, as numerous as themselves, panting for revel and ready to rise on the first opportunity. "fn the panic which must follow such an asteund- ing overthrow, nothing can be easier than to march in and take possession.” The Richmond papers haye doubuess heard the “news” ere this, both from Gettysburg and Vicksburg. EPITAPH FOR GENERAL MEADE. [From Richmond Dispatch, 8th inst.) The following epitaph, from the grave-stone of .an infant, should be placed upon the mona- ment of Meade: “If so soon I’m done for, Wond:r what I was begun for.” VICKSBURG. It is evident, from the intelligence which we publish in another column, that Grant begins to feel the pressure of the iron hand which Johnson has cast&round him. The passage of the Big Biack by Osterhaus’ command, and its attempted passage by the Yankee cavalry at Birdsong’s Ferry, were doubtiess esiened| to break through it. Whether these movements will be followed by the advance of Grant's Whole army remains to be seen. Shonld it be, he will no doubt leaye 2 force to keep up the blockade of the city, But the withdrawal of & Jarge portion ‘of his forces wiil offer a fine opportunity tor @ sally. Johnston appears, to us, to have gained a great point in forcing the enemy to come out of his entrenchments, and meet himon open ground. Everything now depends on skill and valor, and im these qual- ities we have always been the master of the Yankees, ‘ 7 REPORTED EVACUATION OF NORFOLK AND PORTSMOUTH.
