Some twenty shots were fired at her from the batteries at or near Shipping Point, but none struck her. Capt. Mitchell reports that thirty or forty vessels bound up with Government stores and merchant 'vessels with coal and oysters are lying at Smith's Point afraid to attempt passing the enemy's batteries near Shipping point. There are three batteries there mounting thirteen or more guns. A battery has just been Opened at Qauntico EM on the right bank of Quantioo creek, a short distance 'above Shipping Point. The other three are between , Shipping Point and Evansport. There is said to be also a battery at Timber creek and one on on the'hill above Evansport. When the Pawnee and Mt. Vernon went down night before last the Mt. Vernon proceeded the Piwnee and the four hundred marines on board were ordered , t4 lie down on deck two deep in pi4ishig the eneniy's batteries, which was done and they thus escaped observation from the shim— • Illbeteen shots were fired at the Pawnee, six of: which Akre* her and one pawed near luxr The /Levi's.

The others took the oath not to bear arms against the 'United States. The new of Col. Geary's dashing .and success ful tight at 'Helper's Ferry, causes much rejoic ing here.

The rebel batteries on the Potomac need not deter transport steamers from sailing from northern ports for this city, as they will be convoyed from the mouth of the liver by war steamers.
