We published yesterday a brief allusion to the arrest of Col. Talcott in New York city, on the 27th ult. The following are the particulars, as obtained from the Herald of the 28th of March: The War Department received information on Thursday week that Col. Talcett, Chief Engineer of the rebel defences at Yorktown, constructor of Fort Darling, and late Superintendent of the Tredegar Works at Richmond, would arrive in this city on Saturday. Officers were at once detailed by U. S. Marshal Murray to look after him, and it was ascertained that he had taken rooms with his wife and daughter at No. 144 West Twenty fourth st. He left his house at 5 o'clock yesterday morning, in company with his daughter, and was followed by the officers, who were directed to arrest him as soon as they parted. This occurred about noon, near Barnum's Museum. He was at once taken before Gen. Wool, who made an examination of the prisoner, and then transferred him to Fort Lafayette, in custody of deputie

s quite small. We now have the pleasure of seeing the enemy on the railroad in front of our western entrenchments. He appears to be moving his infantry to the right, amid clouds of ascending dust, from the South Quay road to the Blackwater. Two or three of the enemy have visited our abandoned signal station, more are deployed in the fields as skirmishers, and cavalry can be seen on the railroad track. The following was received at about half-past 9 o'clock this morning, from Lieut. Murray, signal officer on the Edenton road: "Our cavalry on the Summerton road have been captured. We have two rebels, who say a large force will attack on the Edenton and Summerton road to-day." This was reported to me by a reliable officer, The field officer of the day is Col. Melver. At this time we can see that the enemy has some field places in position on the Petersburg railroad line, with large bodies of infantry in reserve. Intense excitement was very prevalent.

Important arrest in New York. --A highly important arrest has just been made in this city, by United States Marshal Murray, in the person of Captain A. S. Parker, of the rebel navy. Parker had been in this city a few days, awaiting the arrival of some other parties, and perfecting his arrangements preparatory to leaving for England, he having been commissioned by the rebels to bring out one of the new iron clad steamers now in process of construction there. At the time of the memorable a, as to have been entrusted, as stated above, with the mission of bringing out one of the new rebel iron clads now building in England. As might have been expected, Parker was utterly astonished, at having been discovered in this city by Marshal Murray, and undertook to show that he was not the man the officers were in search of. His protestations, however, proved of little avail, and he was yesterday taken to Fort Lafayette, in charge of Deputy Marshal Peel. He was considered one of the a

ng the Angle-Rebel steamer Peterhoff for constructive running of the blockade. This decision is one of more than ordinary importance. The British journals have all along assumed that as the Peter off was not bound to any American port under blockade, (but to Matamoras, a Mexican port.) her capture was wholly without warrant. The British Foreign Office have also had some sharp correspondence with Mr. Seward on the subject, and it is believed that "John Ball" has only deferred pressing his claim because of a belief that the American Court would decide in favor of giving the vassal up. Judge Batts, therefore, has pronounced a judgment which is certain to make a great sensation abroad. The notorious blockade runner Hiawatha has at last been finally disposed of. She was put up at auction to day by Marshal Murray, at the Atlantic docks, Brooklyn, and the bidding on her was spirited, running up from five thousand dollars to ten thousand dollars, at which price she was knocked down.

we had been of like feeling and sentiment. But, alas! how vain are all human expectations. Instead of going to City Point we were sent to Fort Norfolk, and as the massive key was turned upon us we were politely informed that we were held as hostages for certain Federal non-combatants held by our Government. We remained here two weeks; our fare was very good, and we were permitted to walk about the fort an hour each day. Our friends were allowed to visit us, and the officer in command, Major Murray, treated us like gentlemen. Here we were joined by fifty or sixty other gents of similar cloth. Our disappointment reached its climax when orders came for us to be sent to Fort McHenry, and had we not been ashamed to betray the confidence reposed in us by Major Mulford in giving us the liberties of the boat, we would have taken possession of the craft and steamed for "Dixie's land." Arrived at Fort McHenry, we were assigned to quarters in a long warehouse-looking building, whic

. Here, as elsewhere, they entered the stores and robbed them of everything of value that they contained. They cut the telegraph wires, but did no damage to the train. Early yesterday morning they left Bardstown, but in what direction they moved we have not been informed. It is the general belief that they moved off towards the Lebanon branch of the Nashville road. More arrests in New York — Seward's Bell Ringing again. The Herald, of Thursday, says: United States Marshal Murray made some very highly important arrests in this city yesterday, and succeeded in getting, with the parties, a large number of documents of a very valuable character.--The contents of these have not yet been divulged, nor has it been deemed prudent to give the names of the parties arrested. The subject matter of the papers is said to be most peculiar, and to throw light upon certain operations relative to Vallandigham and the rebels, with which the general public has not yet been made acquai
