Another cavalry Dash at the Central Railroad. A squadron of Federal cavalry numbering about two hundred, appeared on the Central railroad, at Anderson's Turn out, thirty miles from Richmond, yesterday morning, about nine o'clock. They were not quite soon enough to intercept the westward bound mail train, which had passed some fifteen minutes before their arrival. They remained there two hours and then returned towards Fredericksburg, taking with them as prisoner a son of Mr. John T. AnderMr. John T. Anderson, (a member of the Hanover troop, who was at home on sick furlough,) and four horses which they stole from Mr. A. We have been informed that a company of Confederate cavalry, stationed near the turn out, left in great haste on the approach of the Yankees, leaving their camp equipage behind but in regard to this we have no definite particulars.

red upon conditions not known here. "D. H. Maury, Major-General." Each fresh development in regard to the surrender of Fort Gaines goes to prove that it was an act of cowardice or treachery on the part of its commanding officer, Colonel Anderson, of the Twenty-first Alabama regiment. The fort is a casemated work, mounting some fifty guns, was well manned, and provisioned for six months; and we have the assurance of General Maury that it was in good condition, and that the garrison had suffered but little.
