Running the blockade.

--The Washington (N. C.) Dispatch, of the 10th inst., says:

‘ The schooner Chas. Roberts, Capt. Fowler, arrived on Thursday last with a cargo of molasses. She had been to the West Indies and successfully run the Lincoln blockade. She was chased, however, off the bar at Ocracoke and fired at. She gave up all as lost and lowered her flag. The chasing steamer was sure of a prize. But when she came up, behold it was Capt. Crossan, of the North Carolina Navy! The gallant Captain of the little steamer and the gallant Captain of the schooner were agreeably surprised. The steamer conveyed the schooner in and she is now safely moored at the wharf of her owners.
