E. O. GOODRICH, EDITOII. TO WAN DA-: v Thursday Morning, February 5, 1553. OUR TEEMS. The great increase in t!fe price of piper, j which we have before noticed, lias caused news- . paper publishers throughout the country to : raise their subscription to meet the emergency, i Paper has within the last few weeks goae up j from 10 to 22 cents per pound. Should it re- i main permanent at this latter price, we can cot furnish the REPORTER at one dollar a year, ! without a loss upon every copy issued. Re j arc loth to increase the subscription, but from j present indications, and from the information we have from our paper manufacturers, vvc . ahali probably be obliged to. The response made by our subscribers to , our late appeal, has been very satisfactory, though cot as general as it should be. We aha ll receive subscriptions at our present rate ; until the 14th day of February next, after which time (unless there is seme change in j the prices cf materials to warrant) the terms j cf subscription will be ONE DOLLAR AND FIFTY CENTS per year. \\ e shall at-o at that time discontinue every paper not paid for in ad vance, without "fear, favor or c(lection,' as | the change in price will make such a course an absolute necessity. We do not know of a newspaper the size of the REPORTER in the country furnished at c ic dollar per year. As a business, it wouhi tatre but a short time to " close out the concern, at the present high prices cf cv.ryi... g used la a printing office. We trust those who have loon receiving the REPORTER without paying anything, will see the justice and propriety of not putting off tl o " good time " any longer, but v. ill promptly square old accounts, and avail themselves cf the limited time which now remains to pay in advance at one dollar a year. After the close j cf February Court, we shall not send the RE PORTER to non-paying subscribers. We should be happy to, but we can't stand tho expense. . SUMMARY CP mws. We have a despatch from Mack vide stat. lug that the Rebels are going to make a de termined effort to capture one of our trans port fleets on the Cumberland. Forrest's cav alry are expected to do the job. Passengers v.1,0 arrived at Mew York on Monday on board the Columbia from Havana, bring the news of the burning of the pirate Oreto. She had been chased into Havana by oar war steamers, where she r maimed long enough to take in e J. Sao then started for Gardens, but was discovered by the Cayuga, . the Coyler and other vessels, which started in pursuit of li. r. She hud on a full L ai of steam, but was c!e~.ly pursued by that fast sailor, the Coyler. Finding her caso iL-per ate, else steered for the Bahama 1-.lands, where she was overtaken, when a shell from the Cuylc-r set her or: Ore ana totally destroyed her. The news reached Havana on Tuesday, end was confirmed tire following day bv ar rival of the Creole, a vessel that had spoken to the Cayuga the day before. Our inform nuts believed the news to be trustworthy, and stated that it was thC uinc'pul topic of conver sation in Havana, where it was faliy credit ed. Dispatches from Fo; tress Monroe say that the Rebels, uuder Gen. Fryer, advanced across the Blackwater on Friday, and made a demonstration with artillery on Gen. Peek's advanced brigade. Our forces drove l*ryor back again across the Blackwater, in the di rection cf Franklin. The fl. htiag resulted in ° a loss to us of about 100 men killed and wounded. The Ilebel loss is not known, but some prisoners were captured. A dispatch from Quartermaster Kirker stales that Corco rail's brigade was in the light, and that the General and other ( ulcers came out safe. Our New Orleans and Havana letters give a rumor of the escape of tho Harriet Lane, from Galveston, armed and manned for priva teering. The Brooklyn vras said to be chas ing her, and the Mississippi had gone out to look for the Alabama. letters to the Navy Department, dated Off Calvoton, Jan. 10, give a brief account of a commencement of the bombardment of that place. Some execution was done among the Rebel fortifications. The fight was soon to be recommenced. AtMhut time the Harriet Line was in port. Advices from Murfreesboro to the 27th rote tho c-ugagement at Woodbury, on the McMinville railroad, some account of which we have had through Ilebel sources. It was an attempt to surprise a large force of Rebels, but they got warning and were off. There waa some fighting in which our loss was two killed and nine wounded ; the Rebels lost their Colonel and 31 others, and 100 prisoners. HEALTH OF GENERAL SCOTT. —It is stated that General Scott's health is fast failing bun now. lie is confined to his apartment in the Fifth Avenue Hotel, Mew York, almost help less, and what is worse, it is sairi that bis ri nd, at length, breaking down under the . weight o! years and mental and bodily trou f ble. lie receives but few visitors, and those k most intimate friends NORTHERN ADVOCATES OF PEACE A public meeting was held sometime since in Mew York, to adopt measures to call a i National Convention of Delegates from all the 1 States to meet iu Louisville next month. Iu the meantime an armistice of six montbsMvas to be agreed upon. The Convention when assembled, was to adopt a new Constitution and to do whatever would result in securing i j ! the return of the South and preserving the , i Union in (act. . ; The meeting was held and the olive branch j I extended to the rebels iu arms striving to ! : overthrow the Government. The rebel lead i ers at Richmond uid not take long to deliber j ate upon the answer to give to these conde ' sccnding overtures, and at or.ee indignantly j =>. : i rejected them. They wanted nothing to do , i with the New York conclave of the North, I ! and meant to persist iu their treason to the ! J bitter end. i This was the purport of their answer. But j the New Yoik conclave did not choose to give : : tho answer to the public. They had good j | reasons for it. They were not ambitious to \ \ hold themselves up to ridicule. | They had no desire to let the community J 1 know what " Judies" they bad made of them j selves, in the very teeth of the ample cdmoni • lions previously given. But the nature of the : rebuff they received soon leaked out ; to be I confirmed in a very few days by the organ of the " Southern Confederacy" itself. The Rich | mend Ewniirer, the organ of Jiff. Davis, talks | plainly and without reservation. Referring ; to the North, the Now York conclave and its i proposition, it says : " They lictto still to chain us, by some spc- : ! cious con: j romise, to the corpse of the old j Union, or, at least, to gain scrae advantage j in detcraiinii g boundary and commercial re- ; Unions. It would be a fine thing for them \ truly to Lave the Bench agre: to meet them in a convention which shonl i recognize the ! Union as unbrok- n, and look to its perpetua ticn. On this head however they may as well | know ibe truth. On no terms whatever will the South consent to a political association | wick them. There is no concession which they i ' can grant, or which human imagination car: frame, which could render the idea aught but intorcra' le and revolting to the Southern i mind. We separated from them because they j sought to put en ns a brand of social and jio litical inferiority. Yv'e would not reunite with them if they would,one and all, consent to o> ! copy the same po.-ition of degradation which they aimed to rivet on us. Wo would not consent to hold the Northern States even us ; provinces. On this subj-et there is hardly a i ripple upon the service of southern sentiment. Tiiis was the feeling and the purpose, fixed j and unalterable, of the South at a time when ail was gloom and disaster—when Roanoke, ! I Donelsou and Maw Orleans had surrendered: to the foe —ami it seemed as if Providence ; ' had decreed to test to tiie uttermrst the forti tude of our peo; !e. But now, when Heaven has vouchsafed to m so mmy crowning vie- j lories, when the independence of the South is ' an accomplished fact, and liberty fairly won, j the suggestion that the reward of all the sac rifices and sufferings as our people is to be i basely ui carded for a connection with Yau- , kees, is not endurable even as a jest. " When tho Morth wants peace she can oh- j tain it by recognizing the independence of the Bout hem B,rates, and yielding tho terms which I justice demands. "All proportions which ignore either our cs tabbsht d independi nee or the channels of for- i :-:gn intercourse uj pointed by the confederate constitution, can only meet with silent con tempt." The organ then advises the Morth to divide ! into sever til distinct governments, end make separate treaties with the South ! i This is the result cfone of the efforts of the . Peace Men in the Morth, who have opposed the war, the Government, everything locking i 1 ! toward tlie subjugation of tho South. The Mew York sympathizers have had their la . bor fur their pains and wc trust they will now 1 see there is no other way to save the country j tl.au a united, and determined effort of the i loyal States to aid the Government iu CIULL- ing out the rebellion now and forever. lien. Geo. S. Boutwell, CornmLs'oner of Internal Revenue made a report to the . Secretary of the Treasury a few days ago, relative to the operations of bis Department, i The whole number of Collection districts in the loyal States, including two in \ irginia, is 133. To each district has been appointed one Assessor and one Collector. The Asses sors Lave appointed 2,558 Assistant Assessors, and the Collectors have appointed SOS Depu ty Collectors, making an aggregate of Asses sors, Assistant Assessors, Collectors and Depu ty Collectors of 3,81-1, to which add OS clerks employed in the commissioner's office, and we ' have an aggregate of 3,382 persous engaged in assessing and collecting the Internal Reve nue. The act has not been in operation for a sufficiently long time 0:1 which to base accu rate calculations as to the amount of revenue to bo derived from this source ; 1 ut from the most careful estimates by Collectors, which it has been possible under the circumstances to make, the Commissioner anticipates that the revenue from all sources except stamp duties, for the fiscal year ending June 30th next, will amount to $91,777,799, and lie estimates the receipts from stamp duties for the same pe -1 riod at $15,000,00 >, making an aggregate of $70,777,709. The revenue for the fiscal year 1 1803-4 the Commissioner estimates at 100,- ' | 000,000. Mr. Boutwell estimated the cost of asses sing and collecting the revenue under the pres | ent system at 24 100 per centum, and thinks it will never exceed three per ceDt. The ' expenses of collecting the tax in the Territo j ries are so disproportionate to the income as to raise a doubt in the mind of the Commis sioners whether it would not lie the part of 1 wisdom to limit the operation of the law to .the State? Cass of Gen. Fitz John Porter. Last week Judjje Advocate General Ilolt, ; laid the record of the case of General Fitz | John Porter, of the United States Army, | which he had spent three days in making up, j before the President, who, on Wednesday, ac j cording to a letter in the New York Times, | signified his approval of the fiudings of the ! court-martial, and ordered the seutence to be j carried into execution. The fiudings are that | he is guilty on every one of these charges pre j ferrcd, and that the sentence is that be be dis | missed from the service. These charges, were, • in brief, as follows : 1. Disobeying, on the 2Sth cf August, an I order of Gen. Pope, then his superior officer, ! directing him to biing his corps to help ■ Hooker and others in what is now known as the second battle of Dull Itun. 2 Disobeying another order of Gen. Pope on the day following, directing hiui to make certain movements. J. Totally disobeying very important or ders as to the movements of his corps while ! the battle was in progress on the said 2'9th of j August. j 4. Disregarding a peremptory order from | Gen. Pope to bring his command into action ! : andto report in person on the field. 5 Permitting certain of his brigades, in j ' defiance of positive orders, to march back to : Centrevilie, thus greatly delaying the arrival ! : cf Pratt's brigade on the Geld of battle of : j the 30th August. G When peremptorily ordered into battle ' he " did there shamefully disobey, and did re- ' treat from the advancing forces of the enemy, : without any attempt to engage them or aid the ■ troops who were already fighting greatly su- j perior numbers, and were relying on the flank ■ attack he was thus ordered to make to secure ; : a decisive victory; and to capture the enemy's I array, a result which must have followed from j • said 11ai k attack, had it*bcen made by said ! General Porter in compliance with the said j order wliich he so shamefully disobeyed." i T. In that, " being with his army corps cn Friday, the 29th of April, between Manassas j | Station and the field of buttle then pending, • ' and within sound of the gun j , and in presence , of the enemy, and knowing that u sev-.-re ae ! : tion of great consequence was being fought, : I and that the aid of ids corps was gre itly net d- ! : ccl,did fail on that day to bring it- on the (Lid, i ' and did shamefully full back and retreat from ; i the advance cf the enemy, without any at- | tempt to give them bat'!", and without know ing the forces from which he shamefully " re- , i treated." 8. That, "being in t 1 a belief that the; | troop? of Gen. Pope were sustaining defeat and retiring from the field, did shamefully fail J to go to the aid v . .said troops, and ui 1 .-hame ; fully retreat ai d fall b:vk to the Mana.sas j . .Junction, and leave to the disaster ef a pre j | sunud defeat the said army, and did fail, by j any attempt to a'tack the enemy,to aid in avt r- i j ting the rni.sfortuuß of a disaster that would i have endangered the safety of '.he capital of ; ! the country/' The Tir.es adds : j General Porter was defended by the Hon. 1 Ilwerdy J Ginst i an 1 . CiiatKs Limes, E-tj , ; : with such eminent ability as to make the tie : fcu.-c tU'jtecially notable, and it leu to the op in j : ion that lie would be acquitted. The news j of his sentence was communicated to General j Porter on Monday owning. He v.i.s painful- j i ly all' etui, and greatly astonished, evidently • not having anticipated such a result. | i : dtg John Porter was a cadet from New- j i Hampshire, leaving the Military Academy in 1844. lie was made First Lieutenant in 1847. and the same year Pre-vet Captain for : gallant conduct in the battle of Mulino del ll' v.

FOOTE. George 11. Stuart, Chairman Cnriatain Commission, 13 Bank street, Philadelphia. Gen. Fitz John Portjr Dismissed from the Army. — The Court Martial held at Washington, to try the charges brought againstGeu. Porter by Geu. Popo,ha3 rendered its verdict, and the verdict has been approv ed by the President. The charges were of the Gravest character—of having refused to ! . ° obey orders of his superior on the field of bat tle ; neglecting to attack the rebels when our army was in extreme peril from superior num bers ; of having moved in a slow and tardy manner ; and iu short, of having been the cause of the defeat and retreat of our army tinder General Pope, at the second Manassas. The findings are that he isgui.ty on every one of the charges preferred, and the sentence is that he be dismissed from the service. The review of testimony by Judge Holt, which forms a part of the record, is consider ed extremely able. The Court which thus ' disposed of a case of multiform and, in one ! sense, national interest, was composed as fol ; lows : Mujur-General Hunter, presiding ; Major General Hitchcock, Brigadier General Bufus King, Prentiss, liicketts, Casey, Garfield, Bu ford and Morris, with Colonel Holt,the Judge Advocate General, as Judge-Advocate. Rebel Barbarity in Missouri-. — Every mail almost brings us some tiding cf rebel at rocities iu Missouri. Now some soldier is shot by a sneaking bushwhacker. Then a Union family is maliciously handled by a guerrilla party aud stripped of even the necessaries of life. Again they steal on an inferior force of Union men and slaughter them in cold blood. Not content with burning, plundering and de stroying, they inflict personal violence ou worn en and children, and maim and disfigure the dead bodies of their adversaries. Verily the history of the lie bell lon in Missouri is a lire aud blood comment on the barbari-ni of slav ery, and reveals the brutalizing, degrading in fluence ci" " the peculiar institution," in atroc ities and chili: tig horrors that livui the angry strifes of the dark ages. Tii:-. Xavy Department received a dispatch on Sim-lay announcing that the Union gun boat Isaac P. Smith—one cf the recent ;v --eminent purchases—went ashore in Stum river on Saturday, and was captured by the enemy. She was commanded by Lieutenant I Counover. The Richmond Examiner of tha' i date a d.lfetvnt version of the disaster. It represents that the gunboat, with a crew of two hundred and thirty men, surrendered un conditional y after a sharp engagement, aim with heavy loss on our side. This story comes to Richmond from Charleston. It is said that auotber Union gunboat was engaged, and " escaped in a crippled condition." The Na vy Department had no details of the affair up to Mon lay morning, except those contain ed in the brief de-patch referred to.
