Bet.i.'s two youngest boys—DAVID and REEVE—came liome yesterday veiling with the sail news that llie Colonel and his oldest son, WTi.LIE, -•were both taken prisoners by the Confederate cavalry. Col. Bci.L hud two teams, loaded with sutler's store , which he w-.-s taking I oar anil .-, up the Potomac, at d had stopped at a private house over night, and he and liis three hoys and his two teams with nil his stores, worth about $1,500, were all taken about one o'clock at night. The Colonel begged oil'his two youngtst boys. He had a colored m n with him, who dene the cooking for him, and who trie i to escape; but t'nc re'als fired at him as he was running and sh"t him in the leg. They put him into a wagon -and took him along with them.— When taken they were about 50 nri'es from Washington, at a place called Mount Giliad. The two younger boy walked ou foot about 12 miles, to a point >n the Chesa peake and Ohio Canal, and then came the rest of the way in a canal I oat. They took about 40 of our sol lieis prisoners also. * * * There is no telling how long the COL. and WILLIE may be held in 1 ondage. I hope they may soon be released. * * * The first thing the rebel troops did was to make a grab for all the blankets the party they took prisorers had with them They took a watch from one of the Colonel's sons, (DA vin.) but the captain made the soldier return it to the boy. Toe Colonel had a pocket revolver with him, and as it was very daik he managed to slip it into the hands of bis son DAVID, who slipped it iiito lii- pocket and brought it home with him. There was quite a discus sion among the rebels about the propriety of releasing ■DAVID, who passed himself off for 13 years of age, by Raking himself apoear as small as lie could. I presume tiny thought he might be old enough to give the Federal troops notice ot their whereabouts. One man made his escape by running off and throwing himself into a gut ter and laying down in the bottom of it. While the reb els were in put suit of him, some of them rode close by him; but the darkness screened him from their view, and as they left the place in about r.n hour after their -arrival with their (rooty, lie succeeded in tnakiii.' bis final escape. One of them said ' that was a d—d smart Yankee.' W. PATTON." ®®*TEACII!-:RS' ASSOCIATION. —TIie Bradford ■county Tea -uet-s' Association,convened at the Academy ■in East Smithfield on the 14th i ist.

In support ofthis resolution, Prof. C Y -n occupied the floor, and spoke in favor of the resolution. Ilis remarks were explanatory of tlie School Law. As there were but few gentlemen present, it was de cided to postpone further discussion till more should be present. The Committee on Programme made a farther report, and appointed Jliss Maria Scott to give her method of teaching the Alphabet; Miss Elsie Allen, her method of teaching Reading ; Miss T.

Amanda French, was the next business in order, on the subject of " llindcrances to the teacher's Mental Improvement, and Some of the Reme dies."
