FROM WASHINGTON. WASIIINCITON, Nov. 27. '6l There is evidently pervading in all branches of the government a far more hopeful feeling concerning a success ful of the present conflict than heretofore, and this is exhibited in con versations and otherwise, while it is be lieved that the British press will be as earnest as our own in discussing the circumstances attending the arrest of Slidell and Mason. No apprehensions are entertained that the question will be productive of serious embarrass ment to the two countries. The authority to raise eonipanies find regiments of sharp shooters gran ted to Col. Borden last September, has been revoked. The companies and regiments which have already been raised will, nevertheless, be mustered into service and proceed to Washington. * There is no reason to believe that Mason and Slidell will in their confine ment experience any different treat ment from other prisoners, as they are all considered on an equality of treason. The rebel blockade of the Potomac does not seem to have been vigorously enforced this week, as various vessels have arrived here with cargoes of coal, wood and other domestic supplies. During the past few days quite a number of river craft bavo safely pass ed the batteries and arrived at our wharves, among them eight or ten laden with fine oysters, of which our citizens and soldiers will have an atom dant supply for Thanksgiving. Con siderable quanties of wood, we are glad to learn, have also reached us by the river route, and a large quantity is re ported to be on the way. Several ves sels taking advantage of a fine north west breeze, have left the city for points below. Two large schooners arrived yesterday, laden with 'coal, of which we trust we shall soon have an abundant supply—at least sufficient to bring down the price of the article to some reasonable standard. The United States steamer Eagle, Capt. Bender, of Philadelphia, heavily laden with forage, ran the blockade, last bight, without being fired at. The :I';ltional Republican, has ad vices from Winchester, Va., that Gen. Jack son commands a regiment of slaves, who are fully armed. Seventy-five thousand soldiers' let ters were sent forward in mail this morning . It is stated that some of the beef contractors, a few days before the cat tle are weighed, feed them with as ;mid) hay as they can possibly eat— they next furnish them with as much salt as they will eat, and then give them as much water as they can possi bly drink. Cattle " fattened " in this way will -weigh nearly two hundred pounds more than theyotherw;sewould. There is much complaint in some of the Pennsylvania regiments in regard to the colonels demanding one-half of the profits of the sutlers. This matter is not confined to the Pennsylvania regiments alone. The poor volunteers lire the sufferers. WASHINGTON, NOV. 30.—The ports on the Eastern shore of Virginia are to be immediately opened to commerce. The Treasury Department has pre- RAO ilk. tpw ti ups for n those o „ arc ming and shipping the sea-island cot ton on the coasts of South Carolina and Georgia. Information has been received here pf the seizure, on the northeastern -roast, ora Canadian steamer laden with 10,000 muskets, and With caps, powder, and other contraband articles. This steamer cleared from canada, and was . eimsigned to parties in the Southern S6ttes.. !They(' are now confined in the Wild ing known as tli6 Old Capitol, seventy prisOners of. Vicar. POST OFFWE'ORIDERS--TREASURY NOTES TO BE RECEIVED POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT, November 29, 1861. It has been reportedlO this Depart inept ,that some of the postmasters have declined to''' . reeeive United States treasury notes, payable on demand, when preknted to them in paytnent of postitd,trdamps and stamped en velopes.' Postmasters arc therefore informed that, these notes are to be received and disbursed by them - as 'au equivalent in all respects to coin. By order of the Postmaster General A. N. ZEVELY, Third Asst. Postmaster General. Nashville, Tennessee. „ Trio New York. Times g ives the fel lowing description of the proposed new capital of the Rebels:. The city of, Nashville—to which Jeff now proposes_ to remove himself, his satellites, his secretaries, his bureaux, and his Congress, and where he pro poses to set up a Government, which will probably last for some weeks yet —is the capital of the,. State 'of Ten pesqpe, is situated on the Cumber land river,' fAyo' hundred miles (follow ing the windings of the stream) above its junction with the Ohio. The 01y is built chiefly on the south side; orthe river, on the slopes and at tlie Riot of 11, hill rising tibtrut, two hundred feet :hove the water. The city, has (had) Vopulation of about:3o,ooo, ADAng the other inducements for establishing the capital here was doubtless the fact, pf its being a great railroad centre, as well as having river navigation gen erally all the year round. There are five railroads radiating from Nashville —the Tennessee and Alabama, the Louisville and Nashville, the F4d.itcfield and Kentucky, the Nashville hnd - Chat- Wtanooga, and the Nashville and North Western. Steamboats ascend from the mouth of the Cumberland to Nashville, and the river is navigable by steamboats of 1,500 tons for fifty miles above the city, and by smaller boats to the falls, fivc. litlnd red miles. Unlike Richmond, Nashville is a remarkably healthy city, owing in part to the rocky site on which it is built. As Davis has shaken with the ague nearly half the time ho has been in Richmond, he will doubtless be r,lad of the chance to get cured of that tni'serable disease, by a change of cli mate and location. _Nashville is gener ally well built, and there are numerous imposing public buildings. One of the finest of the former is the new Capital, situated on an eminence one hundred, and seventy--five feet above the rh-er, and constructed inside and out of a beautiful variety of fossiliferous lime stoti.''"lcis three stories high, inclu ding the basement. At each end there is an lonic portico of eight columns, each four-feet six inches in diameter, and thirty-three feet high ; and each of the sides has also a portico of six col umns. A tower rises above the centre of the roof to the height of two hun dred and six feet from the ground. It has a quadrangular rusticated base, forty-two feet high, surmounted by a circular ball thirty-seven feet high, and twenty-six feet eight inches in diame , ter, with eight fluted Corinthian col umns, designed from the choragie mon ument of Lysicrates, at Athens. The ' dimensions of the whole building are 138 by 238 feet, and it cost over a mil lion of dollars. It is approached by four avenues, which rises from terrace to terrace, by broad marble steps, The edifice is considered the handsomest State Capitol hi the Union. This is the building in which the Secession Con gress will hold its sessions. It was held out by the citizens of Nashville as one of the principal inducements to remove the capital to their town. There. are many other fine buildings— a court-house, a penitentiary, theatre, hospital, university, State bank, etc. At Secession time the periodical press, of the city comprised five daily news papers, eight weeklies, and, eight monthly publications. Severalof these papers have perished of late ; but in addition to them, the Into Louisville courier (Secession) is now printed there. The Nashville press has long been the most respectable in Tennessee—noted for moderation and solid sense. The commerce of Nashville has been very large, and was carried on by riv er, rail, and turnpike roads. A great part of this is, of course, now destroy ed—though the fact that it has been Made a military and provision depot has prevented its falling into as great a dilapidation as some of the other cities of the State. The average an nual shipments are 30,000 bales of cot ton, 6,0U0 hogsheads of tobacco, 2,000,-- UUO bushels wheat, 6,000,000 bushels Indian corn, 10,000 casks bacon, and 25,000 hogs. The neighborhood is a famous stock-raising country, and has a high reputation - for blood horses, jackasses, mules, cattle, sheep, hogs, and cashmere goats. The Southern Methodist Book Concern, one of the largest book manufactories in the-Uni ted States, here carried on its opera tions.- Sonic years ago they got. a large number of printers from this and other Northern cities—most of whom soon got disgusted and returned, and the best left before Secession times.— The value of taxable property is (has been) about $15,000,000. Seven miles from the city is the State Lunatic Asy lum, where Davis, if lie escapes the gallows or the penitentiary, may yet be glad to find a refuge under the plea that secession was but a frolic of in sanity. Twelve miles east from the city, is the "Hermitage," the celebra ted residence of Andrew Jackilon, which will constantly remind the Con federate Congress of the filet that "The Union must and 'shall be pre served." A late letter written from there says: " The blight of secession has arrested the progress of Nashville. A walk over the business portion of the city, a survey of the customless appearance of the open and a count of the closed 41— nul.lin ram•tvP-S. in Markel; Cherry, College,' Union, and Broad streets, and of the idle workshops and factories on Water and other streets, reveals plainly the severity of the blow indicted upon the trade and in dustry or the city by the severance of the tics that cemented Tennessee, po litically and co,omercially, with the North. Nashville.will heneetbrth keep pace with Memphis, Natchez, Vicks burg. or'New Orleitos, , on the road to inevitable ruin." Among the residents of Nashville is John Bell, late Union candidate for the Presidency of these United States, who would do well to read over to the Confederate Congress some of his, speeches of a year ago.— There was, until lately, a large Union clement in the city as in the surround ing country, but most of it now ac quiesces in the existing status of poli tical affairs. . Religious. Movement in the Army. The large nit mbcr of church members in the army has induced the chaplains of the Pennsylvania Reserve Corps to organize a religions association, upon a basis liberal enough to embrace Christians of all denominations. The'following is the official report of the association, which will be rod with interest: The following has been adopted' by the chaplains' of the Pennsylvania Re serve Corps, at a meeting on the 25th .NoveMber, as a basis for a church.' or ganization in their respective regi ments. The chaplains represent dif ferent denominations of Christians: eltEED.—"l'believe in God tlie•Fa ther Almighty, 'maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, his 'Only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead and buried descended into'hell; the NO dajj he rose from the dead : lle ascended into heaven, and sitteth on''the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall emu to judge the quick and the dead. I believe to the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting." I believe that there is but " one only, the living and true God ;" that, "there are three persons in the Godhead—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost: These three aro ono God, the same in substance, equal in power and glory;" that the word of God which is con tained in the Old and New Testament, is the only rule of faith and practice; that there is a Heaven, or state of eternal blessedness, for those who die at peace with God, and a Hell, or state of eternal suffering, for those who die in their sins; that all men are sinners and need a Saviour, and that Jesus Christ is the only , S.avjortV;, • I humbly acknowledge ray own sin fulness and lost condition ; . that I have sinned against Glid and am not worthy to he called his son. I repent of altmy sins --,confess them to God' and renounce them forever,' 'I trifsvitl. Jesus'Christ as my only' Saviour, and tllo Ghost us my only sanctitker..: Patti de tern fined, by the grace'Of tod,' tkl live a•' liolp life *Mid set a godly example to the World; TO'sdek for the good'of the souls of uiy comrades, striving, to bin 'them to Christ; and to endeavor in all things to honor my Master, the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I renounce the devil and alt his works, the vain pomp and glory og this world, with all the covetous desired of the same, so that I with DiA follow or, be led by them. I wilt obediently keep God's holy will and commaodments all the days of my life, God being my helper. I will have a eare for the good name of each of my Christian companions; will assist and encourage my chaplain in every good work by my efforts and prayers. I will kindly receive admo nition and reproof (when kindly given) for any errors I may have committed. will attend upon all the means of grace that aro consistent with my sta tion. • When dismissed from the service, each member of this association shall be entitled to a certificate as to his Christian character. The officers of the association shall be a president, who shall be the chap lain; a vice president. seeri3tary, and treasurer. 'The president to preside at business meetings, the secretary to report. The treasurer to receive funds, and disburse only on the recommenda tion of n " Board of Managers," which shall consist of the president, vice president and treasurer. ' Thos. P. Hum) of the 7th Pres't of tho meeting of Chaplains. SAM'', JESSUP, of the tith•Reg't, Sec. Some of the chaplains have already established church organizations on substantially the same basis, and find it is of great advantage to Christian culture in the army. A Daring Exploit. Among, the many instances where the bravery of our officers and men has shown conspicuous, the one we copy from the Boston Gazette is almost unequalled : Captain Spencer, aid to Gen. Wool, received information from two ladies, who went from Norfolk to Fortress Monroe with a flag of truce, that near midnight a six-oared boat %vas to leave Norfolk fOr Richmond with money fur the payment of the rebel soldiers. He requested permission, of Maj. Generat Wool to attempt their capture, and was told not to place too much confidence in the informatien received. Never theless, pemission was given, and se lecting two good oarsmen on whom he could rely r with their oars muffled, he started at dark and awaited the com ing of the enemy's boat. Ite had pre viously given directions to his men to pull directly for the boat, and on the moment, gf §tAi,i,n,g to " back water" instantly. About midnight the boat was heard approaching, and tttlting his station in the bows, with a nine-inch shell in his hands, he gave the order to" give way." The moment his bows struck the rebel boat, he threw the shell into the middle of it, and was himself drawn back r luckily receiving no injury from the explosion. Not so the boat and occupants, however, the former of which was broken in two, and the latter were scattered in all di rections in the water, not, however, before discharging their pistols at him, two balls going through his cap, and three perforating his coat. The men were then told that if they submitted quietly they would be saved, otherwise tic nmulct Ica o them to their fate.— They preferred the former, and arming himself with his pistol in one hand, a dirk, (taken by bins at the, battle of Bull Run from a " seeesh") in the oth er, he took them in his boat one by one, handenning them as they were pulled in. In addition to which from the stern of the enemy's boat, which floated, he tool; $l,lOO in gold, and $5,- 000 in their worthleaS paper money.— It was with some difficulty he reached the fort-, the gunwale of the heat being almost level with the water with its increased weight. . --- ---- The Fiendish Spirit of the Rebels, [Prom the Maysville, Ky, raglo ] The subjoined interecptA letter from James Blackburn to his wirCo, has been sent to us by Gen. Nelson, with a ,re quest that it shall be published. In complying with the request we .omit portions of the letter which are strictly of a private nature, and publish only such parts as exhibit , a fiendish hatred towards men in Kentuchy, who have only offended in remaining . loyal to their country and State : • r • " ABINOTOX, VA ' , Oct. 2,..8G1.-1/ - y Dear Wife:—l have left you and our children in the land of, the despot, but God grant that I may soon be able to make the Union men of Kentucky feel the edge of my knife. From this day I hold every Union traitor as my. enemy, and from him I scorn to receive quar ter, and to hint I will never grant my soul in death, for they are cowards and villains enough. Brother Henry .and I arrived here without hindrance. I have had chills.allthe way, but.l hope to live to kill forty. Yankees for every chill that I ever had. I learn that Hardee is still in the Arkansas lines inactive,. ancldf this proves to be true, I will tender my resignation and go immediately to Kentucky. I hope will do my duty as a rebel and a free man. Since I hate the Union men of Kentucky, I intend to begin the work of murder in earnest, and if _ever I spare one_ of them, may bell -be my portion. I want to see Union blood flow deep enough for my horse to swim in.. Your husband, s" JAMES BLACKBURN." Colonel Croghan. The Wheeling Intelligeneer , says,:— The death of Colonel Croghan, who was killed by Gen. Ben,ham's command, in the retreat of Floyd . from Kanaw , ha, is no small loss to the rebels. He was an excellpiA officer, a noble-look ing man, a t ud'. itniaiell& in the regular service, e graduate of West Point, and a classmate of General Benham. Ho whs a son of Gen. Croghan, the de fender of Port Stephenson, and was formerly quite wealthy, once owning the Mammoth Case, in Kentucky.
