WAR NEWS.
ARREST OP TRAITORS IN CHICAGO,
The Chicago Times , of the 31st ult., gays: Yes
terday, a man named Harding was arrested on the
Louisville mail boat, by Custom House Officer Col -
lock, in regard to whose treasonable intentions a
despatch had been received in this city from the
collector at Wheeling, to the effect that he was on
his way to accept a position in the rebel army.
This morning, a man named Hutton, who has
been in the employ of the Ohio Central Railway,
was taken in charge on suspicion that he had been
engaged in an illegal business between this place
and certain points in the Southern Confederacy.
Information was furnished from Columbus, where
Mr. Hutton resides, that he had for some time past
i>een furnishing large amounts of pistols, deliver
able at Nashville, to those who were at war against
the (ienernl Government. He was placed in the
charge of the marshal of the district, upon an affi
davit made by a United States army officer.
ARRIVAL OP THE HATTERAS rItISOXERS AT SEW
The New York World says
The Minnesota made her appearance in the
mouth of our hurbor yesterday morning at about
seven o’clock, and proceeded up the bay under full
steam, with all hor canvas furled. At the quaran
tine she “ hove to” for a few moments, to allow the
health officer to hoard her, and then proceeded on
her way up to the city. Off Bedloe's Island sho
displayed her telegraphic numbers, which was re
sponded to by the gunboat Rhode Island, and the
frigate Potomac, the latter lying at anchor off tho
Battery.
A more motley set were never grouped together
than these Confederate prisoners. Most of them
were dressed in gray clothes, well worn, and in
groups were gathered portions of companies; this
was readily distinguished by the gaudy-colored
trimmings of their coats. Hats and caps of all
colors, shapes, and styles, were worn, while, in ft
majority of eases, the old adage of “ a man who has
net got shoes can go barefoot, was forcibly exem
plified in pedal coverings of the braves.
It is said that the rebels knew nothing of tho in
tended attack until it was too late to beat a retreat,
and that the privateers (I union . Coffee, and, TFims
iovt got up steam very suddenly, and departed;
but where they went-, or the cause of their depar
ture, was not suspected until the fleet- came iu sight.
From their position the privateers saw them first,
and left.
Shortly after the Minnesota anchored, a boat
containing the first lieutenant of the imperial yacht
Jerome Napoleon , came alongside of tho frigate
and tendered the commodore tho courtesies of a
salute, which was fired from the war steamer Cut
nal, and returned by the Minnesota,
The enthusiasm in the bay was heart-stirring.
As the many boats came up from the island they
ran close to the Minnesota, and the most terrific
cheering was indulged in by the passengers. The
Battery was crowded by about ten thousand per
»«“, who, when Commodore Stringham came on
shore, ran to him and greeted him as they did
Major Anderson on his arrival at the Battery on
the IBth of April last.
Hundreds of boats wore employed all day in
taking off the curions to see the prisoners; but, as
no one was allowed on board, of course they were
obliged to gratify their curiosity by seeing them
through the port holes.
FROM CAIRO*
Cairo, Aug. 29.— The flag gunboat Tyler, Com
modore Rodgers, arrived here to-day from Com
merce, and left the Lexington . Capt. Stembell, in
her place. The Commodore reports all quiet at
Commerce and Cape Girardeau, and no rebels in
sight at the former place.
Hon. Emerson Etheridge, of Tennessee, has been
here for some days, and will probably remain here
some time longer.
News arrived here to-day that the Southern Con
federacy in Tennessee had refused to receive the
steamer Samuel Orr, recently captured by the
rebels at Paducah, and would not permit her to
cross the State line; also had promised to pay for
what cargo had been taken from her, and had re
quested the authorities at Paducah to come and take
her back, and restore her to her owners. A com
mittee Jins been accordingly appointed by them to
go up and bring her back, consisting of Dr. John
son, Judge Bingham, and Judge Campbell.
The telegraph wires running from Paducah into
Tennessee have been cut by the rebels, who have
given notice that they want no news conveyed on
hem, neither North or South, as a matter of po
licy.
We are in daily expectation of hearing of an en
gagement between General Prentiss’ forces and
Hardee’s. Hardee is said to have fallen back on
Greenville.
FROM ROLLA.
Roli.a, Mo., Aug. 20.—Two companies of the
Lane’s Prairie expedition returned to camp yester
day—leaving one company behind.
-A house containing twenty Seeeshers was sur
rounded by four of our men, and the whole party,
ogeiher with twenty stand «f arias, captured.
The men learned on the way from the rebels that
he railroad to Holla was to he blown up, and all
communications cut off.
It was reported that Rains and Montgomery had
a “brush,” but it was supposed that the collision
extended only to the advanced pickets on both
rides. It was said that the “brush” occurred in
ihe “Dry Woods,” in Vernon county, east of Fort
Scott. Reinforcements wore sent for by Rains, and
2,009 left Springfield on Friday, for that purpose,
it was stated. The reinforcements marched in the
direction of Stockton or Fremont. Six thousand
Confederates were encamped at Pond Spring, near
Little Fork, and another encampment of four or
five thousand was at a spring south of Fayetteville
road. There were encampments near Springfield.
RUNNING THE BJ.OCKADE—CASE OF THE BRITISH
SHIP ALLIANCE,
The Boston Jotirnal, commenting upon the tele
graphic announcement that the Alliance had suc
ceeded in breaking the blockade at Beaufort. North
Carolina, says:
If the statement is to be relied upon—and we see
no reason to doubt it—then the enemy have been
supplied with a large and valuable assortment of
contraband goods, consisting of tin plate, sheet
iron, block tin, pig lead, Ac., purchased in the city
of Boston, conveyed to St. John, N. 8., by our re
gular steam packets between the two ports, and put
on board the Alliance, which was known to be in
charge of two of the most noted Secessionists of
South Carolina—one of them a former owner before
the bogus transfer was made of her register to
British owners, and the other a well-known pilot of
Charleston, who was known to he entirely familiar
with every mile of the Southern coast.
THE MUKSON niLL BATTERIES.
The correspondent of the Herald says
The rebels at Munson J s Hill have completed their
earthworks. It is expected hourly that they will
open fire from that point upon our force at the
Cross Hoads. They are becoming daily more bold,
defiant, and embittered. They recently erected a
gallows on Munson’s Hill, in sight of our camp, and
huDg a man, leaving his body dangling there in
full view for several hours. It Is supposed that it
was some unfortunate Union man of Virginia, who
refused to forswear allegiance to his legitimate
Government, at the caprice of those who have over
run poor old Virginia. ■
The rebels at Munson’s Hill are practising their
artillery in throwing balls and shells into the adja
cent houses, compelling the inmates, chiefly women
and children, to flee to the woods for safety.
A NEW ENGLAND DIVISION
The five regiments to be raised immediately in
Massachusetts are te compose a part of a division
of 10,000 men, to he obtained entirely in New Eng
land, and to be employed on special service.

Forter.
THE OHIO TROOPS.
The Company C, of Colonel Tyler’s regiment,
which the telegraph reports to have suffered
severely at Summerville, on the 26th ultimo, is
made up entirely of college and theological stu
dents.
FltOM BEVEBLY, VIBGINIA.
The Wheeling Intelligencer publishes the fol
lowing extracts from “a private Tetter dated
Beverly, August 23
General Lee is only ten miles the other side of
Huttonsviile, with from 10,000 to 15,000 men. He
is surrounded by our troops — 10,000 men,
with four batteries of twenty-eight cannon in all.
He sent in a flag of truce the other day to General
Reynolds, who is in command, and offered to sur
render ail his arms if we would only let him
through our lines, so that he could go South. He
said if we did not accede to his proposition that he
would cut his way through. General Reynolds
sent word back to cut his way through, as he
would never let him out alive; so there are great
preparations for the fight. The Sixth Ohio, which
was here, has gone on a forced march to the scene
of action. The Twenty-fifth Ohio, part of which
•arrived here last night, came seventeen miles at
double-quick time, having heard that we were at
tacked and completely cut up.
FROM CAIRO
The correspondent of the Missouri Democrat,
writing on the 28th ult., says:
Vcstorday morning five caTairy scouts from
Capt. Burrell’s company were sent out in the di
rection of Charleston. After proceeding about five
miles they were met by a rebel company of cavalry,
about sixty strong, who gave them hot chase. Two
of them succeeded in making their escape with
horses unharmed. Two others had their horses
wounded, and were compelled to leave them. One
threw himself into a cornfield, and eluded the ene
my ; the other was hotly pursued, and swam a small
lake, and came into camp in rather an undrCSS
uniform. The other of the five has been undoubt
edly taken by the rebels.
immediately on receipt of the news, Captain
Burrell’s company was despatched in pursuit of the
rebels, and tracked them ten miles, but failed in
overtaking them. They were represented to be
well armed, and as a part of Pillow’s forces. They
brought in the report which I give merely as such,
that Pillow was in force within a half day’s march
of Bird’s Point, some ten thousand strong, and
meditated an attack. Every precaution and pre
paration is being made to receive him, and strong
picket guards are thrown oat.
FROM NEW MADRID.
Accounts from Hew Madrid are very indefinite,
but there is no doubt that reinforcements are pour
ing in from Tennessee, to Pillow. The indications
are that the enemy will, if possible, by making
Missouri the grand battle-field, divert any grand
movement of the Federal troops South, per the Mis
sissippi, this fall.
FROM CAPE CIRARDEAIT
The news from this point is to the 28th ult., and
reports all quiet, although the forces there are in
momentary expectation of an attack from Hardee.
It is said that he is near Benton, with 6,000 well
armed troops and Jeff. Thompson’s guerillas, 5,000,
and that he is marching rapidly on that point. An
other report is that the forces are part of Pillow’s.
EXECUTION OP THE FUGITIVK-SLAVE LAW IN MIS-
Edward Bates, United States Attorney General,
has given it as his opinion that it is the duty of the
United Stateß marshals to execute the fugitive
slave law, and return runaway slaves from Mis
souri, on the ground that that State has not at
tempted to throw off its allegiance.
KIT CARSON.
A correspondent of the World has fallen in with
an old friend of Kit Carson, who has just returned
from the'Western frontiers, and who states that at
the time he left Salt Lake City Kit Carson was
busily engaged in raising a corps of mounted ran-,
gers, composed, not of half-breeds or savages, but of
shrewd, practical trappers, like himself, who have
spent their lives on the prairies. Ho had already
enrolled 100 men.
SOUTHERN NEWS.
SECESSION ML-RDEII NEAR CVNTIIIANA,
Wc learn frtnu the Louisville Jotim/I that, on
Friday last, two Germans employed on tho
Kenlucky Central to watch the bridge which
crosses the Licking river above Cynthinnn. wore
attacked by five Secessionists, who rode up and
shot one of the men through tho head, killing him
instnntiy. The other was shot through the arm,
but made his escape, and gave the alarm The
bridge was then fired, hut the farmers in the
vicinity put the fire out before much damage was
done. ■
TENNESSEE AND KENTUCKY.
At a meeting held in Nashville on the 2oth ult.,
a series of resolutions was passed, from which we
extract the following:
Resolved, That we earnestly deprecate an armed
oollision with the people of Kentucky, and that we
earnestly hope ana trust they will not permit the
formation of Federal camps on their sou, the pas
sage of Federal troops through their State, or the
transportation of war material to Tennessee with a
view of arming discontented persons in our State,
if any such still remain amongst us.
BOLDNESS OF THE TRAITORS.
On-Mondny, tho 26th ult., in Ballard county,
Kentucky, a meeting was held and delegates were
appointed to assemble in Mayfield for the purpose
of devising means of taking that portion of Ken
tucky south of the Cumberland river out of the
United States and attaching it to the Confederate
States.
FROM KEY W»ST.
Commander Craven has ordered that no vessels
shall be permitted to leave Key West, except the
owner and crow shall have taken the oath of al
legiance to tho United States, and if that will not
suffice to stop communication with the rebels, he will
close tho trade of that port.
REDRX. REPORTS RESPECTING GEE. ROSECRAA’S’
DIVISION.
The rebel account, via Louisville, of the capture
of General Roseerans and his force, near Beverly,
is utterly without foundation. It is simply one of
the fabrications invented in Richmond to keep up
the effort to “fire the Southern heart.” Despatches
have been received here from General Roseerans’
camp since the date of his reported capture, and no
apprehensions for his safety are entertained.
CAPTURING A CANNON
The other day about a dozen soldiers, sta
tioned at Fairmont, Virginia, received informa
tion that a Secessionist, named Henry Morgan,
who lives about three miles from that place,
had a cannon in his possession, and went down to
take it. They reached the house in the middle of
the night, and made known their errand. The
woman who answered the summons of the soldiers
said the men folks were absent, and she didn’t
know anything about the cannon. Tho captain
replied that was very unfortunate, for if the cannon
couldn’t he found the house might accidentally
catch fire. The cannon was soon found.
SKETCH OP COL. ANI)HEW JACKSON BRADFORD.
Coi. Bradford, one of the rebel officers captured
in Fort Hatteras, has thus been sketched :
Col. Bradford was horn in 1894, and was the first
child in America who was named after Andrew
Jackson, then a judge in Tennessee. He was, we
believe, a native of North Carolina, and was edu
cated at West Point. He was a favorite of General
Jackson when President, and owes his rapid ad
vancement to the partiality of his godfather. He
is well known as Captain Bradford, of the United
States ArUUory, and has been for years stationed
at Fayetteville, North Carolina.
AN INCIDENT OF THE HATTERAS EXPEDITION.
Capt. Travis, of the Peabody, had a hazardous
little adventure on shore with the enemy, which
might have resulted disastrously to himself but for
his run of good luck. While the attack was going
on some of the Union forces penetrated inside of
the enemy’s fortifications, Capt. Travis being one
of the party. After remaining a few minutes, the
smoke lifted, and Capt. Travis found himself sur
rounded by the enemy, and none of his own friends
insight. “ Where the h—l did you come from ?”
said one of the rebels, fiercely. “From Baltimore.”
said the Captain, with imperturbable coolness, “Oh,
you did, eh?” said the rebel; “then you know
Bill Bird—he’s my cousin.” “Certainly,” said
the Captain, “ he’s one of my old friends. ” “The
d—l he is,” said the rebel, “ then you are worth
saving.” And so the Captain got off for the mo
ment, and finally made his way out unharmed.

A Good Appointment. —The President of
the United States has appointed our friend, Col.
Sam. Ringwalt, of Downingtown, an assistant quar

HAIR RESTORATIVE.
The only preparation
THAT HAS
STOOD THE TEST OF YEARS,
AND GROWS MORE AND MORE POPULAR EVERY DAY,
And testimonials, new, ami almost without number*
might be given, from ladles and gentlemen hi all grades
of society, whose united testimony none could resist,
that Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative will restore the bald
and gray, and preserve the hair of the youth to old age,
in all its youthful beauty!
Battle Creek, Mich., Deo. 21,18&8.
Prop. ‘Wood : Thee wilt please accept a line to in
fonn tlieo that the hair on my head all feH off over
twenty years ago, caused by a complicated chronic dis
ease, attended with an eruption on the head. A con
tinual course of suifering through life having reduced
me to & state of dependence. I have not been able to
obtain stuff for «aps, neither have I been able to d®
them up, in consequence of which my head has suffered
extreraoly from cold. Tills induced me to pay Briggs
Hodges almost the last cent I had on earth for a two*
dollar bottle of thy Hair Restorative about the first of
August last. I have faithfully followed the directions,
and the bold spot is now covered with hair, thick and
black, though short \ it is also coming in All over ny
head. Feeling confident that another large bottle would
restore it entirely and permanently, I feel anxious to
persevere in its use, and being destitute ol means to pur
chase any more, I would a6k thee if thee wouldst not be
willing to send me an order on tliine agents for a bottle,
and receive to thyself the Scripture declaration—« The
reward is to those that are kind to the widow and the
fatherless.”
Thy friend, SUSANNAH KIRBY.
Ligonier, Noble Co., Indiana, Fob. 5,1859.
Prop. O. J. Wood : Dear Sir: In the latter part of the
year 1852, wliile attending the State and National Law
School of the State of New York, my hair, from a cause
unknown to me, commenced falling off very rapidly, se
that in the short space of six months, the whole upper
part of my scalp was almost entirely bereft of its cover
ing, and much of the remaining portion upon the side
and back part of my head shortly after became gray: se
tlrnt you will not be surprised when I tell yon that, upon
my return to the State of Indiana, my more casual ac
quaintances were not so much at a loss to discover the
cause of the change in my appearance, as my more inti
mate acquaintances were to recognize me at all.
I at once made application to too most skilful physi
cians in the country, but, receiving no assurance from
them that my hair could again be restored, I was forced
to become reconciled to my fate, until, fortunately, in
the latter part of the year 1857, your Restorative was
recommended to me by a druggist, as being the most
reliable Hair Restorative in use. I tried one bottle, and
found to my great satisfaction that it was producing the
desired effect. Since that time I have used seven dol
lars’ worth of your Restorative, and as a result, have a
rich coat of very soft black hair, which no money cam
buy.
As a mark of my gratitude for your labor and skill in
the production of so wonderful an article, I have recom
mended its use to many of my friends and acquaint
ances, who, I am happy to inform you, are using it with
like effect. Very respectfully yours,

IJIHE WEEKLY PRESS.
THE WEEKLY PRESS
Has been established on a secure and permanent founda
tion ; but it is, in reality, a mnrveUous example of tht
degree of favor which a rightly-conducted
LITERARY, POLITICAL, AND NEWS JOURNAL
Can receive at the hands of a liberal and enlightened
Public. Our most grateful thanks are tendered for tba
patronage already bestowed upon us, and we shall spar*
no efforts which may serve to render the paper even mors
attractive, useful, aud popular in the future.
The general features of the Paper, in addition to Its
POLITICAL AND NEWS DEPARTMENTS, *
Will be POETRY, SKETCHES, BIOGRAPHY, and OH
ginal and .Selected TALES, chosen for their lessons of
Life, illustrations of History, depicture of Manners, and
general merit, and adapted, in their variety, to the task
of both sexes and all ages.
THE LITERARY CHARACTER
Of THE WEEKLY PRESS, now universally acknow
ledged to be of an elevated stamp, shall not only maintain
its present High Standing, but shall be enhanced by im
portant and valuable contributions from able Writer*.
Deeming Purity of Morals the great safeguard of private
happiness aud public prosperity, we bImU carefully ex
clude from our columns everything which may rowonablp
be objected to on the score of improper tendency. Tba
fields of pure Literature afford sufficient material to
make an
ACCEPTABLE FAMILY NEWSPAPER,
Containing all the elements of excellence, without aeingte
objectionable line; and the proprietor of THE WEEKLY
PRESS may justly claim that no head of a family need
hesitate to let its columns go under the notice of any
member of his Household.
THE POLITICAL COURSE
Of THE WEEKLY PRESS need not be enlarged upon
here. Independent, steady, and fearless, it lias battled
unwaveringly aud zealously in defence of THE BIGHTS
OF THE PEOPLE against Executive Usurpation, and
Unfair Olid Tyrannical Legislation j ever declaring aud ad
hering to the doctrine that POPULAR SOVEREIGNTY
constitutes the fundamental basis of our free institutions,
and that the intelligence and patriotism of our OlUzmia
will always be preservative ° a wise, just, and ealutan
Government. These are the principles to which TH
WEEKLY PRESS has been committed, and to then II
Will adhere.
