a volunteer during the Mexican war, preached to the soldiers at the Hospital grounds. I met a large concourse of citizens and ladies returning, who had attended. This Reverend gentleman and the Rev. Mr. Handy were at the Battery last Sunday, the day the work was commenced. The Portsmouth Grays, under Capt. Deans, are stationed at the Navy-Yard. Chains are under the Plymouth, and the work of raising her and the Germantown is progressing as rapidly as the present force will allow. Capt. Lynch, of Dead Sea memory, is here, and looks as well as when years ago I saw him here. He is, I believe, originally from this city. He is at present at the Navy-Yard, under Commodore Forrest. Captain Hugh Nelson Page, of whom I made mention in a former letter, will be in your city to-night. He has received orders to repair thither to assume charge of the Department of Yards and Docks. His wife, formerly Miss Wilson, of this city, goes up with him. He will probably stop at the Spotswoo

On Saturday afternoon, a troop of Cavalry, the Sussex Light Dragoons, consisting of about seventy members, commanded by Capt. Belsches, rode into our city, and after a brief sojourn on our side of the river, resumed their line of march to Norfolk, their destination for the present. After the parade at the Hospital at 6 P. M., on Saturday, the men at the battery of the great guns were exercised by Capt. McIntosh, formerly of the Navy now under Lincoln.--The orders were executed promptly and skill-fully — the men at the several guns evincing that desire to excel which actuates our people, and is characteristic of them in all they undertake.

From Portsmouth.[special correspondence of the Dispatch.] Portsmouth, Va., This is a charmingly bright morning, though the air is cool and bracing. There is not much of importance to communicate, and yet there are a few incidents which may not be uninteresting to your readers. On Saturday afternoon, a troop of Cavalry, the Sussex Light Dragoons, consisting of about seventy members, commanded by Capt. Belsches, rode into our city, and after a brief sojourn on our side of the river, resumed their line of march to Norfolk, their destination for the present. After the parade at the Hospital at 6 P.
