chased vessel arrived safe at her wharf. It was quite dark at the time. On Saturday morning Col. Hedrick, commanding at Bald Head, struck one of the Yankee ships three or four times, and from the agitation on board, and the crowding of boats around her, it is quite probable that she, too, is in a precarious condition. It is said that the Yankee blockade off this harbor has been increased very recently by three additional vessels, among them the much-talked of double ended steamer Eutaw, the fastest vessel in the Yankee service, and, by their account, the fastest war vessel afloat. Both ends are alike, like a ferry boat, so that she can run either way with equal facility. It is not a little remarkable that the Daylight, one of the very few blockaders sunk or blown up at sea by batteries on shore, met her fate from a shell thrown from an old-style thirty two, in battery Gatlin, under the command of Capt. Lane, of Col. Lamb's force.--The saucy craft ventured in too clos
