The news. The Norfolk papers report a vigorous bombardment by the Yankee of our forces at Yorktown on Monday without results so far ascertained. The 16 Yankee prisoners brought to this city yesterday were captured on Saturday last by Confederate cavalry company, between it's Gap and the Shenandoah river, in Shingam county. A number of the Hessian were made to bite the dust, and the survivors were chased by our cavalry to the where several were drowned in attempting to recross. In latest intelligence from Gen. Jackson's army represented the prospects of a battle between himself and the minions of Banks and as imminent. A knowledge of the character and amount of the forces under leaves but little to apprehend when the conflict of arms shall take place. It is deemed certain that the enemy are in of Harrisonburg and their pickets and to within seventeen miles of Staunton.
Another Instalment of Yankees. --A detachment from Gen. Jackson's army, brought down by the Central railroad yesterday twenty-six prisoners, sixteen Yankees and ten domestic traitors. The latter were a very squalid and miserable, hang-dog looking set of creatures. While they might have served the enemy as spies on the actions of our brave boys, they could hardly, judging from appearances, have inflicted any serious damage on the cause of Southern rights by their characters or example. Some of the Yankees were tolerably fair specimens of humanity, but in several of them the brute stuck out so far that it could not be concealed. A number of them were so Teutonic that their jargon could hardly be understood. The names of the Yankees were James Ginnis, company F, 3d Maryland; Thos. Eckles, company H, 66th Ohio; James E. Burns, company I, 14th Indiana C. Caffrey, company C, 1st Vermont, J. H. Abell, company B. 1st Vermont; John Brown, company B, 1st Vermont; C. Van Weber, company
