alifornia Regiment (enlisted in New York) embarged for Fortress Monroe. The latter is 1,100 strong, and well armed and equipgoing which the reader will readily detect.] From Fortress Monroe. The Baltimore papers of Saturday bring some further news from Fortress Monroe.--The Federal steamer Citaline, it appears, was burnt last Tuesday night. Butler had been in her, and belonged to New York. Most of the troops at Fortress Monroe had been ordered to Hampton, as were also those from Ntack. [correspondence of the Associated Press.] Fortress Monroe, July 3d. --The steamer Cataline, which was recently employed as a transport between Fortress Monroe and Newport News, was burned last evening. The vessel is a total loss, s several fugitives, chiefly women, from Norfolk. Fortress Monroe, July 4.--The Washington correspondent of the New YorkGen.

ever affable in bearing towards his inferiors in rank; ever careful of the comforts, feelings and wishes of his soldiers, he wins upon the affections of all, to an extent that makes it a pleasure for them even to offer up their lives as a sacrifice in their country's cause, when led to battle by such a leader. When however, even Northern hirelings, who like the Spaniel expects to be alternately caressed and kicked, are placed under the command of a man like the dastardly tyrant at Fortress Monroe, who appears to live and breathe alone in an atmosphere engendered by the commission he holds under a would-be despot, nothing more can be expected from them in the hours of inactivity, but disgust, discontent and loathing.

was released on account of insufficient evidence to convict him. This morning, at 10 o'clock, private Raymond, a member of Grimes' Flying Artillery, from Portsmouth, now stationed within a few hundred yards of our regiment, deserted to Fortress Monroe. I investigated the matter, and found that Raymond had left in the absence of his Captain, but had obtained a permit from Lieut. Forth to go out fishing.--Before his departure he endeavored to borrow a match, but failed; also, refused to lelet them open fire on him with a rifle cannon, as he was heading straight toward Hampton; but the request was refused, the Lieutenant thinking he was just getting in good fishing grounds. This all looked reasonable, but very uncertain.--Six men started in pursuit of him; but failed to overtake him, as we observed him nearing Fortress Monroe two hours after he left. He has a mother and a father in Hampton, and is quite an intelligent young man. He is about 17 years old, I understand Garman.
