Meantime the morning was still as that of a Sabbath. ‘The two frigates lay with their boats at the booms and swash-clothes im the rigging. Did they see the long, dark full? Had they made her out? Was it ignorance, apaihy or composure? These were the questions we discussed as we teamed across the flats to the south of the frigate with ‘tbe two gallant little gunboats well on our starboard ‘Ddeam heading up tor the enemy. Our doubts were solved ‘by tho heavy boom of a gun beyond Sewa!!’s Point. The reverberation rolled across the sun-lit water and died away, but still the clothes hung in the rigging, still the ‘Doats lay at the booms. Another gun (twenty minutes ‘past one), broke on the air, and a tug started from Now- — News, while at the same time two others left Uld \t, taking the inside Hampton bar. Steadily g jilence the Virginia glides through ‘he water, steadily and with dedaut valor the Feaufort and Raleigh followed where she led. At t Binutes to two, a oe from one of these little v seis rang out, then a white puff from her consort. Still ‘the clothes in the rigging, still the boats at the boom. Was this confidence?

THE SKIRMISH NEAR FORT CRAIG. The Advance and Retreat of the Rebels. Heroic Conduct and Death of Captain McCrea. Brilliant Action of the Union Officers and Men, FINAL DEFEAT OF THE REBELS. The Texans to be Driven Wew Mexico, &e., &e, Sr. Lovrs, March 12, 1862. The St. Louis Repubtican has advices from Albuquerque, New Mexico, of February 23, which state that the Texans have made various significant movements in the vicinity of Fort Craig. On the 18th they advanced a column of infantry, a thousand strong, in line of battle, in front of the fort, and also moyod a cokimn of eight hundred cavalry to the west of our defences. ‘They advanced to within a mile and a half of tho works, with the rebel flag floating in the breeze. They remained in this position some time, and then commenced a retro- grade movement. During the time of their advance Col. Canby prudently concesled the greater part of his forces in the rear of the fort. Wheu the enemy commenced retreating and the infantry was separated from tho cavalry Gol. Canby ordered Major Duncan to charge the cavalry of the ene- my with a squadron of dragoons and mounted men, which wag done in gallant style, tho enemy retreating before them until they arrived at @ deep ravine. The Texan infantry in the meantime advanced to the reliof of the cavairy, and @ skirmish took placo at the ravine. Major Duncan, late in the evening, was recalled. ‘Strange lookig battery ‘We steamed down to meet her, and running close alongside, gave her three choers—three cheers whieh came from the eee of our hearts—which were expressive of praiso and thankfulness—of tion and delight. Ter company was mastered on the grating and returned our cheers. We ran in closer, and there was her commander, Catesby Ap B. Jonas, look: ing as jurisdiction of Virgini heard the reply, complimented the quiet, thought ing man who had managed and fought her from the time Flag Officer Buchanan was wounded up to that moment, and then, with cordially spoken eulogies upon the gallant men on board, we shot ahead. Here let us pause one moment. Our task has been to speak of evgnts rather than individual actors, but we should do violence to our ‘own feelings and to the public sentiment did we fail to allude to the conspicuous services of the gentleman who succeeded Flag Officer Buchanan, who was shot on the grating of the ship on Saturday, the 8th. 3 He was known to all members of his profession as a thorough and accomplished seaman. As an ordnance officer he was of approved skill, and after the 8th and 9th of March this scholarlike, placid gentleman steps upon the historic canvass of this great revolution as one of its true heroes. We leave him and his-gallant shipmates to the generous appreciation of their countrymen, and ask- ing parden of his sensive modesty for what wo have written, pass on with our narative. ‘The same scene was enacted and re-enacted as she passed each vessel, and, with Flag Officer Forrest in the van, the squadron steamed cautiously along towards the barricades. As the ships, ped against the soft, hazy sky, fol- lowed the Virginia the picture was one never to be for- Lemna gd emotions excited such as can never be de- scribed. .As we looked up towards Newport's News saw the “spars of the Cumberland above the river she had so long insolently barred; but of her consort there was not even atimber bead visible to tell her story.

After discharging their carbines, at close quarters, they drew their re- volvers and reached the battery amid a storm ef grape end canister. The New Mexicans of Colonel Peno’s regi- ment became panic stricken and ingloriously fied. Captain Plimpton, with the United States infantry, stood bis ground and fought nobly until more than one-half were sumberod with the dead. With his artillerymen cut down and with his support reported killed, wounded or flying from the field, Captain McCrea eat down calinly and quietly on one of bis guns, and, with rev iver in band, refusing to fly or desert his post,he fought to the last and gloriously dted like a hero—the last man at his guns. The Texans suffered terribly in this desperate charge. Many of our officers greatly distinguished themectves on this day. Major Donaldson, who was chief aid-de-camp to Colonel Canby, acted bravely and was eonspicuous in every part of the fleld. His horse was wounded in several places, but the Major was not injured. Kit Carson was in command of a regiment of yolun- teore, who wore deployed as skirmishers. His command did good service during the action, and behaved well. We have to lament the loss of Lieutenants Michler and Stone, who, like Captain McCrea, nobly and bravely maintained the honor of our fag to the last, and died as patriot Many other of our officers are wounded. Our loss is about two hundred killed and wounded, ‘The loss of the enemy is believed to be much greater, Sete pera oondidaence is reposed in Co.

Trade on the Tennessee and Cumberiand Rivers CIRCULAR OF THE SPECIAL AGENT OF THE TRBA- SURY DEPARTMENT. I desire to make some explanations to the public in regard to our commercial relations with the insurrec- tionary States. The law of Congress of July 13, 1861, makes all inter- course between Joys! States and States declared by the President to be in insurrection unlawful, and declares ali merchandise, together with the vcsse! carrying It, going to or coming from thoee States, forfeited to the United States. It was made the duty of the Secretary of the Treasury to enforces observance of this law, and in doing go he re quired the customs officers to prevent, as far ns possible, ali violation of ite provisions. Tho great profit of trade, in contravention of the jaw, induced bad men to attempt its invasion under every conceivable trick and pretence. the necessity of suporvising all shipments, no ‘er where nominally destined. ‘The law provided that the President might license trade with those States, to be conducted only under rules lations to bo prescribed by the Secretary of the The Merrimac at the Norfolk Navy Yara, Undergoing Repairs, &ec.

The losses of the Union forces were not yery serious, although Com- pany A lost, including the Sergeant Major, five killed. ‘The force was at once reinforced by a second battalion, and other troops were ordered on to further strengthen the body. * SKETCH OF THE CURTIS CAVALRY. ‘The Curtis cavalry regiment was formed in St. Louis, at tho Benton Parracks, and is made up of Nebraska, Towa and Micbigan companies. It is commanded by Captain William W. Lowe, United States Army. We do not deem it politic to publish the relative strength of the Tegiment , but can safely agsert that it will not fall far short of any other regiment in the volunteer service. The men have a degrce of dash in their composition that will make them more noted before the end of the war. SKETCH OF COLONEL LOWE. Col. Wm. W. Lowe, the commander of the Curtis (Iowa) cavalry, is anative ef Indiana, but was appointed to the army from the State of Iowa. He entered West Point as acatet, and graduated on the Ist of July, 1853. He was first made @ brevet second lieutenant of the Second dragoons, and, after being made a full second licutenant, was promoted to a first Iieutenancy and transferred to the Second cavalry. This commission bore date Decem- ber 1, 1556. He was nextappointed adjutant of the regiment; dating from May 31,1868. On the 9th of May 1861, he was further promoted toa captaincy in the Fifth cavalry, which rank he now holds, having obtained leave of absonce to take the command of the Curtis (lowa) cavalry regiment. Among the incidents of his life is the fact that, on leaving the Military Academy, ho was immediately ordered to Texas, and remained there until surrendered by Major General David E. Twiggs to the rebel troops in that frontier State, the conditions of the surrender being that they were to be re-embarked to the North. On arriving at New York Co}. Lowe was or- dered to Washington, and thence into Virgivia, and com- manded a squad of cavalry at the battle of Bull run, After participating in that engagement he remained on the Potomac until December, when he was ordered to &t. Louis, to take command of the Curtis cavalry. After organizing and equipping the regiment he and his command were immediately ordered to Fort Henry, Ten- hessee, from whence they were further ordered to make the attack of the 12th inst. SKETCH OF LIEUTENANT COLONEL PATRICK. Lieutenant Colonel Patrick, of the Curtis cavalry regi. ment, is a Pennsylvanian by birth, and removed to Omaha, Nebraska, in 1856, where he entered mto trode, continuing therein until the fall of 1398. From this pe riod until the war broke out he was comparatively idie. On the formation of the Curtis (Iowa) cavalry he was elected Captain of Company A, and was promoted to be Lieutenant Colonel in December last. He is @ capalle military strategist, in view of ordinary ability and little experience, and is @ most active and energetic man in all respects. His age is about twenty-eight years. In Personal appearance he is of medium heigh, and he wears a heavy flowing beard. He has sharp blue eyes, and is not upamiable in his manners. SKETCH OF SERGEANT MAJOR IVONY, KILLED AT THE BATTLE OF PARIS. Sergeant Major Jobn Ivony, who fell on tho 12th inst., at the battle of Paris, was a Pennsylvanian by birth, and removed from Philadelphia to Nebraska City, Nebraska Territory, in 1858, where he became one of the contract- ing surveyors of that Territory, under the Jate John C.
