KILPATRICK WITHIN OUR LUTES.
Washington, March 3.—The President has
received a despatch from Gen. Butler etating
that Gen. Kilpatrick yesterday arrived within
our lines with a loss of something less than one
hundred and fifty men, having had skirmishes
on the way. ■ s -
Among the missing are Colonels Dahlgreh, s
Cook and Litchfield.
Dahlgren and Cook are supposed to be pri.
soners.
Kilpatrick destroyed a large portion of the
Virginia .Central Railroad and . several mills
along the James river, as well as other valuable
property. J
He penetrated to the subnrbs or outer forti.
fications of Richmond.
ANOTHER PANIC IN RICHMOND.
Baltimore,March 4—We learn trom Norfolk
that there was some excitement there yesterday
among the rebel sympathisers who profess to
have intelligence of a great scars at Richmond
owing to Kilpatrick’s movements in the neigh
borhood of the city.
Some rumors were that Richmond was being
evacuated, but there is nothing definite. The
telegraphic cable across the Chesapeake is not
working, h'ence nothing can reach here except
by regular boat or by sending despatches across
to Cherrystone.
It was generally understood that a force had
been sent up by Butler to co-operate with Kil
patrick, but nothing had been heard from this
force at the time the boat left last evening.

Ireland, Capt L F Bowen, from Beaufort, NO. for
Philadelphia, having been dismasted by collision
with an unknown' schooner 12 days previous, and
had been driven across the Gulf Stream, and no
prospects of working her back under jury masts,
the captain conducted to abandon her; it blowing
strong from the NW, and the brig being under
double reefs, they could save but little of their
effects; took them all on board and landed them at
the Breakwater.
Sehr Wonder (of Dennis), Berry, from Boston for
'Washington,DO, was abandoned off Montauk Point
26th tilt, full of water, having been capsized in the
heavy blow on that day. The captain and crew
took to the boat, in which they remained two or
three days suffering severely from the cold before
they weie rescued. All hands have arrived home.
The stern of the vessel had come off. She had a
cargo of oats and hay, said to be on government ao»
count. The Wonder was IS9 tons,built at Provi
deuce in 1854.
