Illtoona Inlme. ALTOONA. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 10. 1863 The News. The news from Texas are to the effect that the Rebels have captured the U. S. brig, Morning Light, and an unknown schooner at Saline Pass. The New Orleans Delta says that accounts from the Rebel army at Port Hudson and elsewhere show a most wretched state of affairs existing among them, the men only being kept from mutiny byjpromises of peace being secured within ninety days. The carrying out of.the conscription law among the Rebels proves to be a very dangerous operation, as over twenty officers had been shot while endea voring to cariy it into effect. From Fortress Monroe we have the report that a fleet of one hundred aud twenty vessels have sailed from Newhern, N. C., bound South. Special despatches to the Philadelphia Inquirer state that the committee of Ways and Means have agreed to repeal the duty on paper. Hurrah for that. Ou the night of the first inst., the rebels, about 2000 strong, made an attack on Island No. 10. The gunboat New Era arrived about the time the attack was made, and with sir 24 pounders shelled the attacking party so effectually that they beat a precipitate retreat. The garrison at Fort Donelson was also attacked by a heavy force of cavalry, with artillery. After a fight of some seven hours, the rebels were de feated with a loss of some 200 killed and 500 wounded. Water ,is Sowing through the canal at Vicksburg, but the ditch is not widening and deepening as fast as desired. One thousand contrabands are to .be put at work on it immediately. A special despatch from Cairo, dated Feb. 7, says that the steamer Adaline has arrived from Vicksburg. The U. S. ram Queen of the West ran the blockade on Monday morning at daylight. One hundred) heavy siege guns were opened on her and as she steamed past a rebel steamer also opened fire on the Queen of the West. The latter replied, and crippled the rebel steamer. The Queen was under lire three quarters of an hoar. The iron steamer. Princess Royal, in charge of Acting Master Edward' Vans!ice, arrived at the Philadelphia navy yard on the Bth inst. She brings highly important intelligence, both as re lates to her capture and the rebel attack on our blockading squadron at Charleston, showing con clusively that there is no foundation for the as sumption of the reliels tluit the blockade off Charles ton was ever raised by the departure of the, United •States fleet—only two vessels out of eight or ten having been disabled and obliged to leave. It appears from the statement of an intelligent eye witness that the cause of this attack of the reltel rams on our squadron was owing to the cap ture of the Princess Koval. The captain and pilot of that vessel having escaped ashore during the darkness of the night, and communicated the in telligence to the enemy. The Princess Royal endeavored, to run the blockade by way of Breach Inlet on the 29th, but was discovered by the pilot boat Blunt, and the •ignal being given, the Unadilla proceeded towards her and captured the prize without other assist ance. Tell the Whole Story. A number of papers are now publishing very sarcastic and abusive articles against the Admin istration, on account of the arrest of one A. D. Boileau, who figures as editor of the Philadelphia Evening Journal, on the charge of publishing treasonable articles. The charge of Judge Ludlow (who is considered as being partial to Boileau) to the Grand Juty of that city, is extensively copied, and it is attempted to be shown that Boileau is an innocent and much wronged indi vidual, and that the President and his advisersare gnat tyrants. But these sympathizers with Soi leau forgvt, or do not desire to tell the wholes tory, and cunningly leave out that part wherein the Government is sustained in the transaction, — They forget-to tell their readers that after all the pleading and twisting of the Constitution and laws, by Judge Ludlow, the Grand Juty refused to take any action in the matter, or in any way interfere with the United States authorities, thus rebuking (die Judge and sustaining the authorities who ar rested Boileau. The Grand Jury was composed <>f men who it is likely knew all about the course of the Evening Journal and it its publisher and iheir verdict was awarded accordingly. They 5O W Dividends on stocks in cotton companies worth in May,. 1861, $25 to $5O per share, now from $ll2 to $l4O. The agent of the woolen factory declines giving its dividends until he advises with counsel. General Rousseau at Lancaster.— That gallant Kentuckian, Gen. Roussean, had a serenade at Lancaster, Pa., on Monday night, and made the following remarks to an immense crowd :—I am not a politician, apd never expect to be. Before the war began I was a lawyer, and since I have been a soldier. All I have ever asked has been for men and means to put down this rebellion.- My political creed is but a minute long. lam for the government of my fathers and for the friends of that government, and I am against the enemies of that government and all their friends, both North and South. He called on the people that they be so united as not to cripple the effort.* of the soldiers in the field. No matter what your political predilections may be, unite to save" the country, and after the. settled questions of-policy. Let not your differences of opinion weaken the arms of the brave men wlio are fighting that you may be free. In the Array of the Cumberland, in which I have the honor of commanding a division, officers and men know only the cause of their country. All are united in a common work. No dissensions or jealousies weaken their force.— From General Uoseerans, the hero of Corinth and Murfreesboro’, down to the humblest private in the ranks, there is an abiding confidence in the effi ciency of the command and faith in the justice of the cause. When they go into battle they have no other purpose than to crush the rel>ellion and pre serve the government. I fear the results of your divisions yet. I will say to those who will raise issues and make complaint?—save the old flag and the government of your fathers, and then vou can have, the offices from now to eternity. Ock Common Schools.— The pamphlet report of the Superintendent of Common Schools, :for the year 1862, has been received. From it we learn that the total cost of the system for 1862 was $2,227,164.91, showing a decrease of $115,- 019.76 as,compared with 1861. The whole num ber of school houses in the State is 11,132, of which four hundred and sixty-two were erected during the year, and two hundred and forty-eight so refitted- as to remove them from .the class “ unfit, " how numbering but 2,073. The number yet unsupplied with suitable furniture js 2.854 six hundred and thirteen having been properly furnished during the year. Four hundred and fifteen schools were supplied with some stvle of apparatus during the year, leaving yet six hundred and seventy-three to be supplied. Of classified but not graded schools we have 8,013 ; of schools neither classified nor graded, we have 1,245 — during the year, five hundred and fifty-eight hav ing been improved by classifying, und one hundred and forty-seven by grading- The average attend ance of pupils for the year was 385,463 ; the whole number of teachers is 14,380, of whom 6,393 were females, the average cost of teaching each pupil pot month, forty-nine cents; the average salaries of males per month, $23.81; the average salaries of females, $18.55; the total cost of tuition for 1862, $1,367,181.33. The city of Philadel phia, which has three hundred and forty-seven schools, and employs 1,118 teachers, at an expense of. $348,512.57, is not included in the above. Thg Cheat Advance in Cotton. —This article has reached a price in the New York, market it never bore before since it has been known as a staple. Ths Herald of Saturday says: Day before yesterday it suddenly jumped to eighty-nine rents in the forenoon, and in the afternoon’ sales were reported at the extraordinary price of ninety six cents per tS&id. A party who purchased in the forenoon, resold in the afternoon at a profit of $4O per bale. At ninety-six cents per pound a bale of cotton is worth $432. Before the war it sold at ten to twelve cents a pound or at $45 or $54 per bale. From present appearances it. is possible that it may touch $1 per pound, or $450 per bale. The present price is higher than it was be fore the invention of the cotton giti, when the negroes of the South picked it with their fingers. Bry ant Edwrards, in bis history of the West Indies, quoted cotton grown in the Bahamas and other W est India Islands in 1784 at two shillings and six pence sterling |>er pound—say about slxty two and a half cents—which was picked or cleaned with the fingers. Hobblble Mcrdkr. — A dispatch dated Scran ton, Pa., Feb. 3, says:—lntelligence has just reached here of a horrible murder having been committed early on Monday morning in the north ern part of Columbia county. A stepmother named Soult murdered three of her step-children, aged respectively seven, nine and fourteen years, by severing their heads from tiieir bodies with an axe, and afterwards threw their bodies into the fire. She is now confined in Columbia couhtv jail. ■ ' Fight with Indians. — A dispatch dated Salt Lake City, February Ist, says:—On the morning of the 29th nltiimf, Col. Connor had a four hour’s desperate fight with Indians on Bear river, in Washington Territory, in which two hundred and twenty-four Indians* were killed, and many are supposed to have been drowned. Our troops took 175 horses, and destroyed their lodges, provisions, &c. Our loss was fifteen killed, including four officers, and thirty-eight wounded, Large.Caego. —The steamer Glendale arrived at Evansville. Indiana, on the 26th nit., with one thousand and sixty bales of cotton from Memphis. This is the largest cargo since the breaking'out of the rebellion. Contrast AGRICULTURAL PRODUCT*.
