He says Elizabeth City was fired by our men on the approach of the Yankees, but not all burnt. The Yankees wounded are carried there. Col. Green, with his North Carolina and Georgia soldiers, arrived on the island to aid the martyrs of Roanoke, but were taken prisoners. Rev. Mr. Brooks was in a sail boat that was carrying away our stores. We lost over $75,000 worth of stores. We were fortunate enough to spill our powder rather than let the Yankees have it. We saved the greater part of our provisions and stores. The prisoners. The following is a list of the officers of Col. Shaw's 8th Regiment N. C. State troops and Col. Jordan's 31st Regiment N. C. Volunteers, lately captured at Roanoke Island: Colonel, Hon. Henry M. Shaw, of Currituck; Lieut. Col. Wm. J. Price, of Wilmington; Major, George Williamson, of Caswell.

Congress. The Provisional Congress will meet this morning at 10 o'clock, to finish up the business of the session, and half an hour previous to adjournment will open the doors to the public. Much speculation is going on relative to the officers of the Permanent Congress, which assembles to-morrow. Messrs. Jones and Gentry, of Tennessee, Bocock of Virginia, and others are named in connection with the Speakership of the House, and Messrs Dixon of Georgia, Clusky of Tennessee, and McDonald of Virginia, are the prominent candidates for the Clerkship.--Mr. Johnson J. Hooper, Secretary of the Provisional Congress, is mentioned in connection with the Clerkship of the Senate.
