DIMADFUL ACCIDENT.—On the 19th inst. whilst General Butler, in company with the Baltimore committee of reception, Gen. Schenck and staff, and ether gentlemen, were visiting the forte around Baltimore, a dreadful accident occurred. After visiting Forts McHenry and Federal Hill, they bad gone to Fort Marshall, where a salute was to be fired. The General and his party had passed out of range of the gun, and the gunner supposing all had passed, fired a thirty-two pounder. Unfortunately at this moment some of the party who had loitered behind, among them, Com. Woodhull, of the U. S. Navy, came up, and the Commodore being in the line of fire received the charge, blowing the flesh from his lower limbs, and causing his death in a few moments. His body was blown over the ramparts a distance of thirty feet. ASTOUNDING FRAUDS ON THE GOVERNMENT. The report of Senator Grimes, of lowa, upon the subject of Alpe and steamers chartered to transport Mope and supplies, disclose another dark catalogue of fraud upon the Government. In the very outset of it the reader will find an account of the charter of thirteen bargee and steamers at Baltimore that will serve as an illus tration of the whole. In that translation it ap pears that these thirteen vessels cost their own ers—middle men, as 'usual—s6s,2B3, and that they were chartered to the government at the rate of $845,655 per annum—an annual profit of three hundred and twenty , Jive per cent. Among these wan a rotten old bulk called the Patapsco, which was purchased by one of these middle men for $1,200, and then hired to the govern ment for $B5 per day, and the barge Delaware, which coat $2,500, hired for $7O a day. The running erpensee -of this latter vessel were about six or seven dollars a day, and all the rest were the profits of the culprits, whoever they are. These vessels were hired by a man !lamed Hal, who had a monopoly of the business, under the direction of Col. Belga, Assistant Quartermaster General, and John Tucker, Assistant Secretary of War. When it in borne in mind that WO hun dred and seventy-four vessels were chartered by this roan Hall, some idea may be gained of the fearful moot of which the government has been plundered by his operations. The ihodtut operandi was this:—Hall, as we have said, was a at middle man," and through the action of Mr. Tucker and Colonel Belger, had a monopoly of the business of chartering vessels at Baltimore. Nobody who had even a coal boat to hire, could get access to the government offi cers except through him. He was the agent of the United States, selected the vessels, and fired their i pritieS- At the same time he was the agent of those who owned the vessels, some of them being his own, and others having been bought up by his creatures. In every case be charged a commission ranging front five to twelve per cent on the gross earnings of every vessel char tered. Of course the higher the rate th,e more this careful agent of the government was enabled to pocket_ The whole report is reeking with exposed enormities. It is impossible to estimate the plunder. Millions' will be required to cover it. The committee censure some high officials—they recommend court martial for another—and they demand what the public voice should echo in thunder-tones, that such ill gotten gains should be DIBOORGIED. That word "disgorge" should be the universal cry, until justice is done the pub lic treasury, and then It should be seen whether criminal indictments win not lie against all those speculators on the country's calamities. ' WAR NEWS! Another Raid by Stnart's Rebel Cavalry. Attack on Averill's Cavalry. The Rebels Repulsed and Ranted. STAFFORD, Thursday, Feb. 26, 1863.

REPORTED CAPTURE OF THE QUEEN OF THE CM The most important news from the Southwest ie the reported capture of the Union ram Queen of the West, whose gallant exploits in running the blockade at Vicksburg are already known to our readers. She is said to have been captured under Fort Taylor, at Gordon's Lauding, on the Red river—the pilot, who was taken off the rebel steamer Eva, having treacherously ran her with in range of the guns while asserting that the fort was fifteen miles away. Her stemhpipe was knocked off, and she was otherwise so disabled that she drifted to the opposite shore, and all of the crew except thirteen escaped. The boat and the rest of the hands fell into the power of the rebels. Regimental Order on the Death 01 Col. Knoderer. The following Regimented Order on the death of Col. C. A.

Kaoderer has been announced to this Regiment iu an order from Brigade Headquarters, the terms of which are alike just to the deceased and creditable to the General commanding the Brigade. It would seem superfluous to recount to yod the many virtues of our deceased Colonel. Only four months ago he was a stranger to most of you, yet in that short time his noble qualities were so well appreciated that it may truthfully be said, no regiment in the Berth') entertained for its commanding officer greater respect, coed dence and love than did cur regiment for Colonel Knoderer. With a thorough military education, a gradu ate of one of the best Polytechnic Schools of Europe, ho was 14n accomplished officer and a brave soldier ; his private character, too, Was full of beauty ; with a mind moat richly stored with varied information, he was gentle and ami able in his intercourse with friends, and perfect ly just, honorable and honest with all. The interest and affection felt by as for our Colonel was fully returned by him. In health, his mind was constantly occupied with the im• provement and comfort of the men ; and on his death bed, when bodily suffering caused his mind to wander, his incoherent mutterings were all' of the regiment. You, men, were never long absent from his thoughts. Cherish his memory, then, as that of a dear friend, and make his character your mod eL The more you imitate him the better men and better obldiers you will be. It is Ordered that the usual badge of mourning be worn on the left arm for thirty days. By order of T. D. DAVIS, Lieut. Colonel commending Regiment Per A. KIEFER, Adjutant.
