The Republican's story yesterday of the cap- ture of Fort Darling has not only no confirma- tion, but military authorities here do not seem to anticipate that Grant will attempt to take it by assault, involving, as that would, 8 fearful loss of life. It occupies a formidable position on a height where its guns rake the open wheat fleld lead- ing up to it in every direction, landward, and its water Approaches are quite as susceptible of defence as experience has proved. If Grant deems its reduction a thing to be desired, he can undoubtedly reduce it, but he will cer- tainly not assail it by storm. NO NEWS, If no news is good news, we may believe, as we certainly do, that everything is progressing well at the front, though nothing has been received from that quarter. No further particulars confirmatory of our occupation of Petersburg has been received, but there is no doubt that from the commund- ing position gained by Smith, we are in a posi- tion to occupy it at amy moment that may be deemed desirable. FROM THE POTOMAC FLOTILLA~—A SUCCESS- . FUL RAID, The Leslie affived this morning from the lower river, and reports that some of the sea- men of the flotilla and ‘a body of colored troops have for a week past been on araid in &@ quarter where it was reported there were a number of guerillas and blockade runners and thus far the expedition has been very suc- cessful, capturing a large lot of cattle, horses, and some twenty-five or thirty prisoners, among whom are some who have hitherto given us much trouble running off contra- bands, &c. The expedition is still at work, and promises important results. A largenum- ber of contrabands,some of whom had been run on rom Maryland have already been re- covered. NAVAL CAPTURE. On the morning of the Ist of May the schr. Fox, tender tothe U.S. steam-sloop San Ja- cinto, in lat. 26 deg. 05 min. north, and long. 3 deg. 20 min. west, boarded and took posses- sion ot the sloop Oscar, from St. Marks, bound to Havana, with 93 bales of cotton.

Allof the above haye been recognized by their friends, who identified articles of clothing, shoes,ornaments, &c., yet remaining upon the charred bodies. Theee, together with the bodies of Johanna Connor and Margaret Horan, which were re- cognized last night and taken to their late homes, make in all seven that have thus far been recognized. Maggie Yonson, who resided on 7th street, between F and G, Island, and Ellen Roche are among the dead, but it is impossible to identity them. Mies Bache, who was taken to the Arsenal Hospital yesterday died this morning from the effects of the injuries received. Numerons friends and relatives of deceased, this morning visited the Arsenal and- strove to identify the remains of loved ones, but were unsuccessful except so far as above stated, and they were obliged to turn sorrowfully away. A large number of those who were employed in the building where the explosion ocourred, but who escay unharmed, except by fright, aleo visited the arsenal grounds this morning. To-day all werk was sus! led at the Arsenal, out of respect to the memories of thé deceased, except on the part of a tew of the carpenters and painters under the direction of Mr. McGinis, who are engaged in preparing the coffins. ‘The coffins are of poplar, and are ‘neatly stained, and will be unitérm in appearance, all of them to be lined with muslim and trimmed cee rice we, aro fo be sllver-monnied, ecrews, tacks, &c. are ver-| and the coffin-piates will oe also of plated sil- ver.

Melissa Adams, killed, is the daughter of Edward C. Adams, huckster, Center Market. Mr. Adams and family have the general sym- pathy of the community from the fact that this is the third child he has lost by violent deaths within a year or two, and singularly too, asif in support of a popular superstition, in each case the disaster occurred ona Friday. The first was that ot a boy who accidentally shot himself on a gunning excursion; the next was that of another boy run over by @ coach and killed; and the third was that of the daughter Melissa who perished in the flames yesterday. Miss Gunnell is reported better to-day, and it is believed she will recover. Mrs. Scott, the widow lady who escaped badly burned from the laboratory, found her- self buried at the time of the explosion under the bodies of a half dozen of the girls, and never expected to emerge alive. but by great exertion, she managed to struggle free and escaped trom the building. Under the excite- ment she was not aware that she was burned until she had reached the upper gate of the Arsenal grounds, when feeling a pain in her leg, she examined it and found it terribly blistered. Mr. John Dudley was badly burned about the hands and arms in his courageous attempts to extinguish the burning dress of one of the sufferers, A young girl employed in the laboratory was yesterday morning dismissed for laughing and talking in the room, con’ to rules. She bewailed the fact of her dismissal to an elder- ly friend employed in the room, who tried to comfort her by ssying that it would perhaps all turn out for the best, but with no thonght that the events of the day would so soon make her words true. By an odd coincidence it was only yesterday morning that a letter had been received at the Arsenal acknowledging in grateful terms the receipt of $170, contributed by the Washington Arsenal employes for the relief of the employes at the Alleghany Arsenal, Pittsburg, who suffered from some similar calamity not long ago. By another coincidence the despatch to the War Department announcing the explosion and fire at the Washington Arsenal was re- ceived at the same moment with one announ- cing & fire in the Watervleit Arsenal, N.
