--The Confederate steamer Patrick Henry (formerly the Yorktown) ran within three miles of the blockading squadron a few days ago and opened fire on it. Sawyer's gun drove the Patrick Henry back. The Henry mounts twelve guns broadside, and two pivot guns.

The Confederate steamer Curtis Peck appeared yesterday morning above Newport News.

A steamer from Norfolk made a recounoisance yesterday, and an attack is immediately expected on Newport News.

A Frenchman who deserted from the Patrick Henry, (or Yorktown,) says she is ironplated to protect her sides and upper machinery.
