TEE FATE OF COL. DAHLGREN.
BEBEL BEPOBT OF HIS DEATH.
CONTRADICTORY
OTHER SOURCES.
The Richmond Sentintlot March sth, contains
further accounts of Kilpatrick’s raid.
A correspondent in the Army of the Potomac
says:
The gallant Dahlgren is dead. After leaving
Richmond he proceeded with a portion ot his men
toward the peninsula, through the county of King
and Queen, where he met Lieutenant-Colonel
Pollard, of the 9th Virginia, and b»d a sharp en
counter, in which Colonel Dahlgren was shot dead.
Some seventy or eighty of his men were captured.
The remainder haye rejoined Kilpatrick, as has
been already stated. Colonel Dahlgren was one of
the bravest sons of America,and his death will be
regretted by all whoever knew him. He had lost a
legra the service, and had just arrived at that
period of convalescence when he could take the
saddle, when he was cut down by war’s relentless
.4i%c person was found an ad dress to
his men and a memorandum, of the route he was to
take with his command when he left Kilpatrick,
where he was to go, what he was to do,
when he was to be there, and when he was
to rejoin the main force. The address to his men
is a most spirit-stirring and patriotic appeal to
their sympathies and valor in behalf of their fel
low-soldiers who are suffering imprisonment in
the loathsome dungeons and upon the desert
islands of the Confederacy. He begs them not to
falter or .flag, but to "follow him to open prison
doors, and, putting arms into the hands of their
released brethren,’ they wculd all march together
to kill Davis and his Cabinet, and then return home
to.their friends, ready and anxious for further
deeds of valor. *
The Stntintl devotes a column of editorial to eodt
xnentsupon the address and memoranda, and char
acterizes them as the height of barbarism ancf van
dalism. It declares that the world can now see
that this war is prosecuted from partisan hate,
which exceeds that of the savages of old, forgetting
apparently, that Southern men were the first to
introducetaids, robberies and murders into this
country and this war.
The Senhn'l claims that they have captured two
hundred and four of Kilpatrick’s men and five
officers. They do not claim to have killed many,
but give an obituary of Captain Ellerey, of their
own forces, who was killed in defence of Rich
mond. It also announces the safe return of Col.
S. S- Bell to Richmond, who escaped from the
cars on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad when
being conveyed from Johnson’ d Island to Point
Lookout.
CONFLICTING HUMORS.
A Washington despatch to the Tribune, dated,
March 7th, says:
“The latest official Intelligence from Colonel
Dahlgren is the despatch received yesterday by the
President irom Gen. Bntler, who says he had just
received a communication from Gen. Kilpatrick
stating that he had heard from Colonel Dahlgren
and his men at King and Queen’s Court House.
General Butler adds that ho had sent a force out to
meet them. King and Queen’-s Court House is
about 35 miles from Williamsburg. ’ ’
The same paper contains the following:
“Washington, March 7.—The President has
received a’despatch that Col. Dahlgren and com
mand reached Williamsburg this morning. ’ >
FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF THE SOUTH.
[Correspondence ol the New York Times. 1
Jacksonville, Fla., Wednesday, March 3.
Gen. Seymour’s forces still remain in front of
Jacksonville. The videttes are about a mile be
yond Camp Finegan, and nine miles from the town
itself. The troops have entirely recovered from
the slight shock imparted by the late unfortunate
result at Olustee, and are in excellent condition to
again meet the enemy. We do not entertain the
slightest belief that the enemy will attack ns in
our present position. Whether another fight oc
curs depends altogether on our advance move
ments.
The fortifications it front of Jacksonville are of
a formidable character, either for offensive or de
fensive purposes. The troops have been at work
on them day and night, and an immense amount of
labor has been bestowed upon them. The absurd
repoits that our forces were in imminent danger of
capture were, without the shadow of foundation,
The enemy was too badly crippled to follow us on
the retreat, and we are confident that he has little
relish to attack us now. A number of gunboats
lie in the stream ready at a moment’s notice to
open fire. Gen. Seymour’s command has been
largely reinforced, so that at the present moment
it far exceeds the number that the rebels are re
ported to possess. i
A cavalry skirmish between one company of the
rebels and a detachment ol the Independent Mas
sachusetts Battalion, occurred on Saturday, a short
“fe beyond Camp Flnegan. The fight was of

BLOCKADE BUNKING AT CHARLESTON
RESUMED.
The Washington correspondent of the Tribune
telegraphs as follows:
From private intelUgence received this evening
from Charleston we learn that the business of
blockade Tunning has been resumed there, and that
hardly a week elapses without a.couple of block
ade;runners running over the pass and entering
tnexiarbor. his is attributed to the insufficiency
of our blockading squadron, greatly reduced by
Gillmore s expedition, and to a lack of vigilance
in the officers entrusted to watch the entrance of
i he J! a y- The Tepse ls which ha-re succeeded iu
bpraing the squadron during the last month came
with lull assorted cargoes of muskets
of English manufacture, shoes, blankets and
medicines.
The comparative rest which the Charlestonians
Imre recently enjoyed has been used by them m
the completion of the works of defence which are
now progressing rapidly, and which will soon,
they hope, make Charleston one of the strongest of
the rebel cities. All the disposable hands are now
engaged upon these fortifications, numbering, it is
said, oyer 10,000 men. .The slaveholders have
been compelled to furnish to the military authori
ties one-foqrth of all the male slaves between the
ages of 15 and 50. All the free colored males of the
same age are required to give themselves up for the
same purpose.
The Charlestonians have established a Joint
Stock Company for the purpose of blockade*run
ning, and have already secured a couple of swift
steamers, now employed in the trade between
Nassau and Charleston. These steamers, it is re
ported, have made two successful trips between
the two cities during the last month.

Mb. Mubdoch’s Patbiotic Lecttre akd
Becitatioss.—Last evening Mr. J. E. Murdoch
gave his second entertainment at the Academy of
Music, on behalf of the “Special Belief.’ * The
house was a full and brilliant one, and Mar. Mur
doch’s eloquent and patriotic utterances were
greeted with the heartiest sympathy and the warm
est applause. His subject was “Providence, and
Love of Country,” and nobly was it discussed.
Recitation* of patriotic poetry were interspersed
with the lecture, and were listened to with the in
tense interest which Mr. Murdoch’s admirers
always accord to his admirable elocutionary efforts.
The recitation* were introduced by quotations

AMUSEMENTS.
Thb Chestnut. —Mr. Grover still presents lov
drßma with novelty after rovelty, and
with each new piay the scenery improves, and all
tne appointments become more attractive. Last
evening Marston’s “Pure Gold” was given to a
good house, and it passed off very well, consider
ing the fact that the artists generally were scarcely
up in their parts, and that they seemed to fear to
let themselves ont with spirit and energy. The
plot turns on the false accusation of a father, of
robbery and murder, and his restoration to his
daughter and to society, with an untarnished re
putation. The father aforesaid was played bv
Harry Pearson: the daughter by Miss Sophy Gim
t ef- Miss G. acted with her usual tenderness and
effectiveness. Mils' Germon gave an admirable
portraiture of a noble-hearted and quick witted
English lady; Mr. Donaldson played a rake and
dandy with his usual ability; Mr. Chapman did
the best he could with the character of a stiff old
aristocrat of broken fortune, and Mr. Mordaunt
threw some spirit into the part of an Italian re
fugee. The minor parts were tolerahlv performed
and will be given with much more effect at later
I erformances of this attractive piece, when all the
artists are,familiarized with the text aud the sitca
tione. To-night * 'The Coßeen Bawn' ’ will be re
peated, and shortly “The Ticket-of-Leave Man”
will be revived.
“Our First Babt” is the subject of Mr. De
Cordova’s third and last lecture at Concert Hall
on Thursday evening. Judging from the two first,
we have no doubt the Hail will be filled to over
flowing.
Tbh Arch Those capital comedies, “The
Jealous Wife” and “Somebody Else” will be
given at the Arch this evening, Mrs. Drew ap
pearing as Mrs. Oakley and as Minnie. Hill,
Griffiths and Robson will appear.
The Walnut.—Miss Ettie Henderson appears
to-night in two dashing plays; in “Kathleen Ma
vonrneen’ ’ and ‘ ‘Captain charlotte. ” The clos
ing piece is “The Adopted Child.” The present
is the last week of her engagement in this city.
COURTS.

PERSONAL.
The health of Governor Hicks is slowly improv
ing, but bis condition is now such that he can be
removed from Washington to his home, near Cam.
bridge, Md.~, with safety.
Hon. Fernando Wood is lying dangerously ill at
his residence, at Bloomingdale, from an attack of
pneumonia. '
Mrs. A. D. Richardson, the wire of the corres
pondent of the New York Tribune, died on Friday
last, at her home in Massachusetts, after a -single
week’s illness. Her disease was congestion of the
brain, induced by an attack of measles, hut thatlt
should have taken this form is to be attributed
doubtless to the intense anxiety she has suffered in.
consequence of her husband’s imprisonment. Mr.
Richardson, with another correspondent of the
Trtbunt, Mr. Julius Browne, was taken prisoner
on the 3d of May last, while attempting to pass
Vicksburg in a tng, which was blown up by a
rebel shot. - They were sent to Richmond; vritht
paroles in their pockets for exchange, and thrown
into Liibby Prison. From bitty Prison they were
removed early in the winter to Castle Thunder,
and from Castle Thunder more recently to North.
Carolina. To this cruel treatmentof Mr. Richard
son is now added the death of his wife and the or
phanage of his children.
Tee Grb'coat Be Soto.—A private letter
from Havana, dated March 1, states that the
United States gunboat Be Soto was in the dry
dock there. The blockade-runners and Seces
sionists in Havana had threatened to burn the
vessel, and also threatened the officers with
violence. The Spanish authorities, however,
had given the officers of the Be Soto permission
to wear their side-arms, and they now visit the
city fully armed.
