Capture of cavalry.

--The Prince George cavalry, numbering twelve men only, commanded by Sergeant Boland, and the Nansemond cavalry, numbering eleven, under the command of Lieut. Eley, were surrounded and cut off in Maryland last week during the retreat of Gen. Lee's army. These companies are attached to the 13th Virginia cavalry, and had by repeated engagements been cut down to the small number who were captured.
