March 22.

This morning, at ten o'clock, a scouting-party of fifty men, belonging to the Fifth Missouri cavalry, encountered Quantrel's guerrillas near Blue Spring, Mo. A short skirmish ensued, after which the National cavalry retreated with a loss of nine killed, five missing and several wounded. The rebel casualties were not ascertained.--The steamer Granite City was captured off Eleuthera, Bahamas, by the United States gunboat Tioga.--Mount Sterling, Ky., garrisoned by a detachment of National troops, under the command of Captain Radeliff, was this day captured by a small body of rebel cavalry, under Colonel Cluke.--(Doc. 143.)
