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
<lso forget to state that while Boileau was in Fort
McHenry he recanted beautifully, begged pardon
for what he had done, thus admitting that he had
done wrong, and promised faithfully to do so no
more. That there was sufficient in the charges
against Boileau to have held him for trial, and
severity punished him, there is no doubt, and his
shifting the responsibility of the articles, and his
desire, as exhibited in his deep contrition and
faithful promises, to get out of the scrape,
convinces us that he was guilty and he knew it.
Instead of the authorities that arrested him acting
ryranically, we think they were entirely too lenient.
It is this leniency that is working allthe mischief.
Instead of being looked upon in that' dight, it is
heralded as an evidence of fear, on the part of the
Admnistratidn, ait(i the attacks upon it are re
newed with more malignity.
Notwithstanding all these aiders and comfor
ters of the enemy in the loyal States, we have cbn
,ndsnce in the integrity of those in janver, and
firmly believe that they will come out of the con
tent triumphantly.
gy The Albany Artpn s»ys tlie understanding
between Gen. Woo) and Governor Seymonrin re
gard to the limits of military command is perfect
and in all respect* cordial.
Getting their Rights—Marked
In the Virginia Senate on Friday, Jan. 30th,
the hour for the special order having arrived, the
bill to suppress extortion was taken up. Mr. An
derson, of Botetourt, one of the ablest and most
zealous advocates of the bill, proceeded to address
the House in support of the measure. Instead of
the depreciation of the currency being the cause of
the prevailing extortion, as claimed by some of the
opponents of the bill, he would snow that it was
uist the reverse. As an illustration of what ex
tortion and simulation had brought on the coun
try, Mr, Anderson read a table contrasting the
prices of May. 1861, just before the war-cut from
the market report of one of the Richmond ptt|<*rs
—with those of the present time. The figures are
not given as exact, but they are correct enough to
serve the purpose. The table is interesting, ?and is
| well worth, being cut out and preserved-as a relic
of the. part of the extortioner in this war:

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.
