On the 27th information was communicated to Col. 

 Fish, provost-marshal, in relation to the conduct of 

 Mrs. Julia Sterrett, wife of Capt. Isaac S. Sterrett, late 

 of the United States navy, but now in the rebel ser- 

 vice, which induced him to order her arrest. Accord- 

 ingly, about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Lieut. Marcus 

 Stirling, of the 1st County Cavalry, proceeded to the 

 family residence, No. 115 North Charles street, and 

 stated the object of his visit, whereupon the door was 

 suddenly closed and entrance refused. The lieutenant 

 then called his guard, which previously had not ap- 

 peared, and was soon inside. He told Mrs. Sterrett that 

 he had orders to take her into custody, and that she 

 must prepare forthwith to go south. Several persons 

 present remonstrated against the proceedings, and 

 called for the officer to show the authority by which he 

 acted, but he declined complying with their request. 

 But a few minutes elapsed before Mrs. Sterrett ap- 

 peared, when she was attended to a carriage and 

 driven to the wharf of the Fortress Monroe steamer, 

 and shortly afterward was on her way South. During 

 the proceedings a crowd of four or five hundred per- 

 sons assembled, and as soon as the lady made her ap- 

 pearance there was a disposition manifested to prevent 

 her departure, but the cavalry in attendance soon, 

 cleared the way.
