'WASHINGTON, Jan. 2, 1163.
The following official despatch has been received
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Jan. 1. 1113.
The rebel General Morgan crossed the Cumber
land river, cut off Nashville at Gainesbore, and up
peered in front of Munford6ville on the 25th of De
comber.
Colonel Hobson, of the 13th Kentucky, drove part
of his force. killing nine, and capturing sixteen.
Morgancrossed Green river above Munfordsville,
and moved in the direction of Elizabethtown, burn
ing the bridge at Bacon creek and Nolin. He de
stroyed the trestle work at Muldraugh's Hill. and
moved for Rolling Fork. Colonel Harlan, of the
10th Kentucky, commanding a brigade, overtook
him at Rolling Fork and attacked him, killing and
wounding a number, and capturing a captain and
some privates.
Colonel Ball (rebel) died of his wounds, and one
of - our lieutenants of artillery. Colonel Harlan
crossed, pursued, and attacked him at Rolling Fork
and Salt river bridge. This is the first instance, I
believe, of infantry waiting and attacking cavalry.
Morgan fled before Harlan to Bardstown, and from
there attempted to escape between Lebanon and
Camp Belleville. Colonel Harkins, 120th Kentucky,
commanding there, attacked him this morning, kill
ing a number and capturing ninety men, his caissons
and ammunition wagons. Morgan is flying precipi
tately. General Reynolds marched from Glasgow
yesterday for Greensburg, and may intercept him.—
Colonel 1iu16 , , 6th Kentucky Cavalry, killed. Our
casualties aro not yet reported. Morgan has paid
dearly for;what he has done.

WHEAT IS THE 11. STATES.
The report of the Superintendent of the
Census presents some highly interesting sta
tistics as to the growth of the great food sta.
ple, wheat, in the United States. It appears
that in 1849 the total quantity of wheat grown
in all the States and Territories was 100,485,-
944 bu:hels, against 171,183,381 bushels in
1859 —being an increase of nearly seventy per
centum, or about double the increase of popu
lati,n.
It is not to be supposed, however, that the
increase has been equal throughout the United
States. On the contrary, the old wheat grow
ing States—Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio abd
New York—fall considerably below the aver
age, owing, as it is thought by the Superin
tendent of the Census, to the destructive agen
cy of the wheat midge and the consequent
unwillingness of the farmers to subject
themselves to repeated ]caves from this cause.
The increased production of wheat in the coun
try at large is therefore due to its extended
cultivation in the Northwestern States, where
Ste yield has been prodigious, and has defied
the means of transportation to bring it to mar
-1 ket. In Illinois, for instance, the crop has
increased in ten years from. 9414 578 bushels
in 1849 to 24,159,500 bushels in 1859 ; and
in Wisconsin from 4.286 131 in 1849 to 15.-
812.825 bushels in 1859 —or an increased re
spectively of 160 and 275 per cent., while the
increase of population for the same period has
been 101 and 154 per cent. The Superintend
ent believes that the grain growing States will,
show a more favorable rate of increase in the
next decade, from the fact that the bar upon
its general cultivation—the midge—is dimin
ishing where it was formerly the most destrue
ive, and wheat growing will, in consequence,
be resumed in many localities where it had
been almost abandoned for a time.
Canada promises to be an enterprising com
petitor of the United States for this essential
article of food in the markets of the world.—
From
some tables whi - Ch we have seen, we '
learn that its production of wheat fur 1849 was
12,620,425 bushels, against 24,682,550
bushels in 1859—being an increase of
dearly one hundred per cent. It will be re
membered that in the same time the increase
of our population was 35/ per cent., and of
the production of wheat not quite seventy per
cent.
FIRE. AND LOSS OF LIFE
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 31
This morning, shortly after 3 o'clock, a fire
broke out in the large stone mill, known as the
Keystone Mills, located on Noble street, above
12th. The building was occupied by Thomas
Schofield, who was engaged in the manufac
ture of woolen yarn, for carpets, &e., contain
ing extensive machines fur the manufacture of
woollen goods. The mill was being worked
night i gnd day on army goods, and employed a
number of hands, including four women. The
whole structure, as well as the contents, was
destroyed. The workmen escaped, as did also
three of the women ; the remaining one, Mary
Ann M'Calla, who was 'employed in the pack
ing room was burned to death. She had evi
dently worked her way to the front of the
building, and had been suffocated in trying to
vet back again, as her body was found on the
2d story landing. The deceased was a widow,
and leaves three children.
A "HAPPY NEW YEAR" FOR THE
HON. JOHN UOVODE.
The Hon. John Covode, arm in arm l with
political brother, was walking in the neighbor
hood of the Exchange, this morning, when the
pair met the lion. Samuel J. Randall, mem
ber of Congress elected from the First District.
Mr. Covode and his friend balled, and the
friend, after addressing Mr. R , remarked
You gentlemen ought to be acquainted
with each other—one a member of Congress
about to go out, and the other a member of Con
gress about to go in—Mr. Covude, I make you
aoquainted with Mr. Randall." Mr. Ouargla,
after h swing and scraping in his graceful
style, extended his hand, but Mr. Randall
nyilsed to take it, remarking that he " never
shook hands with a blackguard and a liar,"
whereupon Mr. Covode's friend caught the
illustriotH hero of the smelling commitees
around tiie waist and hurr . ed him around the
rest corner. " Honest John" has nut been
bean] of since.
We trust, he enjoyed a "Happy New Year!"
His Nary Yard speech produced pleasant
fruit! All such vile traducers of Democrats
ought to be thus treated, and they ought to be
thankful if they receive nothing worse.—Philu

RATHER PERSONAL o;.; Pare.—The army
correspondenz of the Chicago Times, writing
from [lolly Springs, tells it.. News came to
the chaplain of the—Regiment that a good
Union soldier was given up by his surgeon,
considered in a dying condition, and desired
spiritual consultation. Thechaplain as in duty
bound, went to see him, sat down by his cot,
and talked of death and the resurrection, and
finally opened the Bible at random to read a
chapter
_for the dying man's consolation.—
The book opened at the account of Samson's
slaying so many Philistines with the jawbone
of an ass. At the conclusion, the:soldier ask
ed what book he read that from. The chap
lain replied. '' :qv dear friend, it is the Word
of God." The soldier reque-ted him to read
it again, and at its conclusion asked to see and
read the chapter himself. The chaplain . hand
ed him the 'Bible, when he exclaimed, '' Oh
dear ! my eyes are so dim I can't lead ; but
tell rne, chaplain, honestly, isn't General John
Pope's name at the bottom of the chapter ?"

REPORT
OF THE DIRECTORS OF THE
Farmers' Mutual Insurance Company,
For the Year 1862.
I\ accordancewith a long established
kctiatom, the Lirectors of the Farmers' Mutual Insu
rance Company, present to the members of said Com
pany. at their annual meeting nri the 27th day of De•
camber, A. D. 4862,•a report of the proceedings of the
Board during the yeir.
In the transaction of their business. in connection
with the Company, the Board have met with nothing
that seemed to justify the suggestion of any amendment
of their By-laws or alteration in the mode of conducting
the affairs of the company; the former being well adapted
to carry cut the object and intentions of the institution,
and the latter greatly facilitating the execution of those
benevolent views and feelings that prompted the or
ganization of the Company.
If the Company were at present to be organized anew,
the experience of the present Board might probably
suggest some alterations, but they would be of minor im
portance, and in the , present condition of the Company
could not be introduced without encountering difficul
ties that could be more than commensurate with the
advantages that might result there from. One of the
main difficulties which the Beard have to contend with,
is the:scarcity of small change to facilitate the collection
of small sums of money. But as this is a matter that
no action of the Board can affect. it must be borne with
patience, like other grievarces of the times, until a rem
edy Is devised by some other means.
The disasters by fire, during the past year in property
insured by this company have been considerable in
num beo,e c hough with one exception, the losses hare been
moderate in amount, and some of them, as will be aeon
by the Treasurer's report, spate small. Most of the cc
urrences were supposed to luo entirely accidental. In
one instance (Denlinger's Barn.) the fire resulted from
the action of small children, having koodled a fire near
the Barn for their own amusement. without seeming
sensible of the danger to which they exposed their pa
rent's property. And here it may not be out of place to
observ, that the universal use of friction matches, and
the loose manner in which they are kept and used, may
not unfrequently. he the cause of accidents by fire,
when the origin thereof is unknown and unsuspected
by the sufferers ; and thus, what is admitted to be a
great convenience, and has become an almost indispen
sible article in every family, may sometimes be the
cause of a s-rious calamity
The first fire that occurred during the present year
was on the 27th of January in thr Born of John Den•
linger. iu alillerstown, which caught teem a fire kin
dled by children at play near the Born. The Appraisers
estimated the damages to the building and eoutents
,which were entirely com.unied) at the sum of One
thousand and fifty-five dollars, of which three-fourths,
being $791.25, was paid by the company.
Tho resat large fire °colored in the Mill of Daniel
Good. iu Conestoga township. on the night of the 4th
of February, by which the Mill was entirely destroyed.
The loos of Mr. Good was estimated he the appraisers
at Five thousand dollars three-fourths of which being
three thousand seven hundred and fifty dollars was
paid by the Company. No canoe could be assigned or
d!scovered from whence the fire originated. The fire
broke out in the Mill romp. where fire had been kept
in a coal stone, and lights used during the evening,
as usual, alai probably a spark from one of those falling
on dry c. inbm , tible matter about the time the millers
retired. may have cause.! the conflapration.
Th • nest rim deemed worthy of rni, in this report
was in a house of Peter Stauffer's. in En-t Lampeter
township, on the 17th of August. The fire occurred in
day light. but the inmates could give no accout.t of its
origin. The appraisers laid the damages at fivehund•
red Doliar., and the Company paid three-fourths of that
sum, beine
- -
On the 21,1 of October a tire occurred in a tenant
house of John Illidibrand. in Jlartic township, by
which the Lund, rig - ekes ohtirely consumed. The fire
broke nut in the upper part of the building in day
light, arid is supposed tl have ought from the stove
pipe. The damage was haft at three hundred and eighty
dollars be the appraisers, and a warrant has h=en
granted by the Directoa f r three fourths of that
amount, being two hundred and eighty-five dollars.
This sin aun t is not yet c ue, and of rouse has not been
paid.
On the firsisi.liv. — ae. ovember, a logoreathcr-boarded
smith shop litoced by Daniel llerr, tDequeal'in g teas.

fire is nm I stem It occurred in day light noon after
the middle of the fins. The building stood some dis
tance foss the dwelling house, sans filled wflh tobacco
hung op to dry, and had riot been used as a shop for
noire than a week previous to the fire. This circum
stance renders It certain that the disaster was not oc
casioned from fire necessarily and properly used In or
about the building, whilst the loestion 01 the building,
being at no great distance trom rite dwelling house,
surrounded by an open field and in full view of the
public read, taken in connection with the fact that the
fire occurred in broad day light. almost precludes the
idea of it having been the work of an incendiary. Be
that as it may, the Company. es well as the proprietor
of the premises. made a narrow escape from serious
love. Mr. hal the wind blown in the direction of the

THE PATENT STAMP-SEALING AND POST-NAHN.
PRESERVING ENVELOPE.
The preservation on the letter itself of the POST-MARK
and POSTAGE-STAMP, generally destroyed with the de.
Cached cover, has long been deemed a - matter of the first
importance. This desideratum is now triumphantly secured
by thle Ingenious invention. Many obvious advantages
most arise from the general use of this envelope.
First—lncreased Safety by additional sealing; the stamp
connecting the envelope and letter securely together; and
this is never liable to be omitted, though the sticking of
the flap is frequently neglected or imperfectly done.
Second—Security against Impertinent Intrusion • the
letter and envelope being firmly attached by the stamps.
and inclosure canuotbe inspected even If the Bap be abn•
destinely opened. . •
Third—Safety against Abstraction of Valuable /nein.
sures. If the flap be left unsealed, or opened with Mout
ons intent, it will be impossible to open the letter and take
thence bank notes and drafts without so mutilating the
envelope as to insure detection.
/Smyth—Security for the free payment of the Postage;
as the stamp, when once properly placed in this window,
cannot be removed without Its destruction.
Iffa—Advantage therefore to the Government; by the
effectual destroetion of every stamp in its first me.
Sirth—Facility to the Post Office Operations; by s
uni
form location of the stamp in the upper right hand corner,
which is the most convenient position fir the Poet Office
mark.
Severath—Verification of the Mailing; by securing on the
letter itself the legal evidence of the time and place of it
being mailed. This has long been esteemed so desirable,
that many prudent persons are constrained to dispense
with the see of envelopes, that they may have the poet
mark on the letter; and others take the precaution to pin
the envelope again on the letter for identification.
Etighth—Certainty of the Date and Place on the Letter,
which are so frequently omitted by writers in carelessness
or hurry.
Mirth—Ornamentation; which, though some may think
of small importance, certainly meets the approval of al l
.persons of taste.
Tench--Coet. Notwithstanding the'many and unrivalled
advantages of the "Stamp Sealing Envelopes," they will
be furnished at a very small adianw_npon the prices of
those not having the benefit of this patent. -
