RAILROAD TRAIN CAPTURED BY GUE
. RILL AS.
The Baltimore American of Saturday has the
iollowing:
The rumor that prevailed in the city yester
day of a train on the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road having been robbed by guerillas, turns out
to be well founded. t
The train which left Baltimore at 6 o’clock
on Thursday evening reached Harper’s Ferry
abont 11 o’clock, and moved on towards Mar
tinsburg, having on hoard a gqotHy "number of
passengers hound West. When at Kearneys
viUe. abont nine miles beyond'Harper’s Ferry,
and ten miles this side of Martinsburg,4he train
encountered a pile of rails on the track,and the
locomotive was thrown off, but going at a slow
speed, no damage was done.
As soon as the train was stopped a crowd of
armed rebels,about forty in number, surrounded
It and took possession of the passenger cars.
They then went around and searched and
robbed each passenger, commanding each to
“Btand and deliver” their watches, pocket
books and other valuables. The work is said
to have been done most thoroughly, with all
the grace and sangfroid of experienced high
waymen. Even their pocket knives and tooth
picks did not escape the plunderers. Those
who did therobbing were accompanied by pis-
tol-holders, who thrnst the' muzzles under the
noses of their victims whilst they were being
plundered.
They did not touch thd baggage train or
Adams’s Express car, and when they had
finished their, work with the passengers,mounted
; their horses and left. The locomotive was soon
put npon the track, and proceeded on to Cum
berland.
CAPTURE OF A PORTION OFTHE GUERILLAS.
Department West Virginia., Feb. 14.
[Special to the New York Herald.] —A por
tion of the guerilla party that stopped the true
on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and robbed
the passengers, were overtaken and captured a
few hours after the robbery was committed.
From the best information it does not seem
that they numbered over thirty-eight, and we
got ten of them. Our cavalry bands are still
on the Mint.
They consist of some of the chivalry, and
rebel sympathizing Baltimoreans constitute a
portion.
LATE NEWS FROM CHINA.
San Francisco, Feb. 13.—Hong Kong
papers of Dec. 20th, received here, do not
mention the sale of the Jeff. Davis, which
came out from England for China.
that the Chinese Government repudiates the
bargain which its agent made for vessels with
' Osborn, the agent of the British Government,
en the ground that his instructions were ex
ceeded; for, instead of furnishing river flotilla,
which was intended, Osborn brought out a fleet
sufficient to guard the entire Chinese coast,
composed of expensive vessels, too- large for
river service. Moreover, the owner’s agent,
Hr. Lay, entered into an engagement with the
©fficers and crew, involving great outlay, with
out authority. After further Osborne
went to Pekin; making there every effort for
the acceptance of the steamers, but in vain.
The Chinese Government preferred to forfeit
the advance already made. Osborn conse
. quently returned to Shanghai, registered the
vessels as British at the Consulate, and de
spatched them, part to England and part to
Bombay. The Hong Kong Press of the 15th
says, they have aH left ere this.
LATER FROM NEW ORLEANS.
New York,, Feb. 14.— The steamer Mom
jng Star has arrived from New Orleans, on the

the way home.
A Conservative Union ticket .was nominated

of semi-secesh and pro-slavery Unionists. Its

A DONATIONTO THE GOVERNMENT.
War Department, Washington City, Feb.
18,3 1864.—The Secretary of War acknow
ledges the receipt, from an anonymous source,
of the sum of twenty-fiv e hundred dollars, “ as
a donation to the United States Government,”
inclosed in a Tetter, of which the following is ; a
copy: ■
“February 12, 1864 I herewith inclose

ESCAPE OF UNION OFFICERS FROM RICH-
A gentleman who arrived to-night from the
Army of the Potomac, saw, before he left
there, a Richmond paper of Thursday, found
on the person of a deserter who came into our
lines, in which appears an'article stating that
one hundred and nine Union; officers have es
caped from Libby prison, by digging a tunnel
under the street for that purpose. It is sup
posed that the prisoners had been engaged
upon the work for at least a month. They were
mieshd at roll call, and forthwith' troops were
despatched in various directions to recapture
them. Four were overtaken on the Williams
burg and Hanover Court House roads. The
others, it is supposed, were secreted in the
neighborhood of Richmond. The guards were
arrested on the belief that they were in collu
sion with the prisoners, but were afterwards
.released, the subterranean mode of escape
having become known. The paper says that
Neal Dow was not among the runaways, but
was probably waiting to accompany the next
batch.
The deserter above referred to says a large
number of his regiment, the 14th Louisiana,
are barefooted, and the daily rations consisted
of a quarter of a pound of meat and one pint
of meal.
There have been no active military move
ments for a week past.
REBEL ATTEMPT TO DESTROY THE BLOCK
ADING FLEET.
Boston, Feb. 13.—The Herald’s Folly Island
correspondent says that the rebels have tried
several times lately to reinforce the almost
worn-out garrison in the ruins of Fort Sumter,
hut have failed. Most of the men in Fort
Sumter are negro slaves, and reports are that
twenty Or thirty are killed daily. Night
before last, it being somewhat hazy, one of the
rebel rams, in company with a cigar-shaped
torpedo boat or infernal machine, left Mount
Pleasant, and proceeded down the creek in the
rear’of Sullivan’s Island, for tho purpose of
going out to make an attempt to destroy the
gunboats Housatonic and Nipsie, which were
doiDg guard duty that night in.Sautte Channel,
near Beach Inlet. j
When the ram and infernal machine had got
ready to make a dash out of the inlet it was
found that the machine was in a sinking condi
tion. She was turned back into the inlet,where
she now lies. She went down, carrying some
of her crew to the bottom. This put an end
to the attempt to destroy our vessels. This
is the third infernal machine the rebels have
lost.
A few days since a guard of ten rebel sol-,
diers, including a sergeant, escaped to our
lines. They Teport the city badly damaged
from the effect of Gillmore’s shells.

Captain John F. Porter, of the 14th New
York Cavalry, arrived here to-day, overland
from Richmond, having escaped two weeks
ago from the. Libby prison. He came out of
it in rebel uniform, "having secured one that
had been abandoned. He remained nine days
in Richmond unsuspected. Among the re
cently escaped officers from Libby prison, are
Col./Streigbt, Col. Toppea, Major John Henry,
and Col. Rodgers, but it is not known whether
they have yet cleared the rebel dominions.
The rations issued to the officers in the pri-
son consist of a quart of rice to sixteen men
every eight days and a small piece of corn
bread every day to ©ach, together with about
four "ounces of very poor fresh meat once a
week, and very rarely salt and vinegar.

The Malden Tragedy. The first inter
view between Green and his wife, since his ar
rest for the murder of young Converse, took
place,this morning in the office of the keeper
of the East Cambridge Jail, and was deeply
affecting to the few privileged spectators pre
sent, as wjjll as to the unfortunate parties
themselves. 1 Mrs. Green is the youngest
daughter of a most worthy and aged citizen of
Cambridge. She is a prepossessing young
wearing a kind and good-natured look.
On arriving at the jail she was ushered into
the jail office, when the turnkey, Mr. Wade,
brought in her husband. The scene which
took place can better be imagined than de
scribed. They both sat down in the office, after
the kiDdly greeting which a beloved wife who
always stands by her husband gives him under
all circumstances, however-unfortunate^in
which he may be placed in this world. A few
words were spoken in p. low tone of voice be
tween the unhappy couple about the situation
in which he was placed, and then they talked
of family matters. The interview did not last
long and the parting was most sad. The sister,
brother and mother-in-law of Green afterwards
had a short interview with him. Mrs. Green
will have the sympathy of the whole commu
nity in this her hour of trouble. Alter the in
terview, Green was removed to his cell, crying
aloud. —Boston Herald. Feb. 12.
