DESTRUCTION OF A BLOCKADE BUNNEB. of the Herald, un. aer date of March 5, writes: - ■pr^S e ,^fs ing schooner Vapor arrived here to-day bringing fifty.flye bales % toe jolni capture of the United States steamers Sagamore and the Nita, Hken from the blockade Bteamer Nawman, which in attempt ing to run the blockade, ran aground, and to pre vent her from falling into our hands was set on fire and burned. An officer of the United States steamer Olvde has kindly fnrnißhed me with some additional par ticulars relative to the destruction of the blockade running steamer Nawman, as well as the captnre of several more bales of cotton. My informant Writes: We ftirlred theref-Se Sawanee river J on the 25th. anas/ milt : Mining bulletin ? jpaiLAbist.pHiA. Tuesday,; march 22,1864. of February, and discovered a steamer on fire in side tbe bar: It proved to be tbe blockade rnnn».r Newman, thf same vessel that fired into the Sea Bird a few weeks ago. She made several attempts togetont. but did not succeed. She had onboard some two hundred bales of cotton. The United States steamer Nita sent; in her boats to eapture her, upon which the crew of the Nawman set her on file and deserted her,after having thrown over board filty-tbree bales of co ton to lighten her. These were picked up by the Nita. On the Clyde coming to an anchor,’ Acting En sign Jones apd Maker's Mk?e Dexten went up in a boat to reconnoitre tbe wreck. Ou nearing it a boat wat f-e* n putting off from her. Chase was given, and two men, named Ryder and Taylor, were captured. From the men information was obtained that sixty-eight bales of cotton were np a creek branching off from' Snwanee river,'about ten miles from the entrance. Next day Acting Volunteer Lieutenant Hooper, commanding this vessel, organized an expedition with the gig and cutter, in Acting Ensign Raskin and Acting Master’s Mate Palmer, to proceed up the river and bring off the cotton. Af;er an {absence of twenty-four h ors they re turned, bringing with them sixty.seven bales of cotton. I would also state that tbe Nawman had on board a six-pounder, thiTty muskets and plenty of grape and canister. I have been informed that she intended to fight her wav through the block ading squadron. We are bringing down some 24 refugees from Cedar Keys. There is a report at Snwanee River that our foTceß have wbipped'General Finnegan, and cap tured nearly ail his men. There is nothing ef consequence stirring here. The steam transport Hussar left yesterday, witn a detachment of the 16th New- York Cavalry, brought here from New York in the steamer Hud son last Saturday.

So much of the. decree of the Court below as relates to the stock of Myers and Shaw in the Lebanon Valley Bauk and the costs is reversed, and it is ordered that the Lebanon Valley Bank transfer in due form upon tbe bocks of the said Bank, to the complainants named in the bill, the one hundred and fifty five shims ol ftock, standing in the names of the said M j ers and Shaw, and to pay to them the dividends heretofore allowed on them, and that the said Myere and Shaw, and their assigns or any person claiming tbe said stock, shall be perpetually de barred and precluded from recovering the same or tbe value thereof, or any dividend? thereof, lrom the said Lebanon Valley Bank. Nisi Prius—Justice Agnew.—Barnes vs. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company. Before re ported. This morning the defence opened. It is alleged that when the Company came into posses sion-of the . State Works they found- the can 1, especially that portion between H'-llidaysburg and huntington, in a very dilapidated condition, owing to the fact that the superior facilities offered by the railroads, had depreciated the value of the canal property as a mode of transportation That under the contract of sale the company was only required to keep up tba canal, but not to enl&ige it or deepen it. No with standing this view ol their obligation the company d d place the works in repair in accordance with the suggestions of a competent engineer, and a? an evidence of the work done Mr Cayler referred to the fact, from t 857 to 1&63 the following mechani cal structures were placed qn the canal: On the lower Juniata Division 4, And on the Upper Ju niata 22 locks; repairing upon the lower .TuniatA 36, and on the upper Juniata 33 lock gates; 60 bridges on tbe lower, aad 56 bridges on the upper Juniata re built, together with extensive repairs to dams an d waste ways. Upon this line of canal thus re built, the receipts and expenditures of the com pany during the seven years were as follows: Ag gregate receipts lrom the Lower Jnniata, SUL -236 10; expenditures, «i 53,523 45. Aggregate re ceipts from the Upper Juniata, $15,184 90; expen ditures, $149,606 05. The defence further allege that plaintiff had not shown any damage to himself, inasmuch as the testimony showed that he made the same number of round trips since 1557 as prior to that time. It was further alleged that the evidence for the defence would establish that the oompany had made tin* most ample preparations for repairs to the canal whenever there was a break. The re pairs to the canal since the purchase from ’he Mate were made gradual in order to avoid the ne cessity for stopping all traffic; that the whole of the canal from Hollldaysbnjg to Huntingdon has been reccns ructed, with the exception of dredg ing, to which the company is now about to address itself. On trial. The 100th Kegiitent, “Soundheads, ” will leave Camp Copeland lor Annapolis on Wednes day next. Colonel Least:re has anthority lrom. General Burnside to recruit above the maximum, and the surplus will be organized into companies ol sharps shooters. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

Bianeh Office, 425 Chestnut Street. AMOS B. KEITH, General Agent for Pennsylvania. ASSETS OVER $700,000. Equitable Life Assurance Society. Since tne first of December, 1863, THE EQUIT ABLE LIFE. AbSURVNCE SOCMETY has issued orer NINE HUNDRED POLICIES, as sunng an aggrega-e of about THREE MILLION DOLLARS. Tne Society has outstanding ri-ks to the amount of Eleven Million Dollars, and its In come for the year 1864 wjll reach the handsome snm of five hundred thousand dollars. No Life Insurance Company ever organized in this country can show so proud arecord of immediate success, and prompt, progressive prosperity. To have se cured an income of half a million dollars in the flUh year of its existence, an achievement of which any organization may well afford to boast. In respect to the expenses of the Equitable So ciety, it is the fact that their ratio HAS BEEN LESS THAN THAT OF ANYLTFE COMPANY ORGANIZED WITHIN A DOZEN YEARS, The Company's losses have, moreover, been comparatively few, up to this time; having in their number fallen far short of the regularly received tables of expectation upon which the science of life insurance is based. The Equitable Society is purely mutual in its operations, every cent of profit over the actual cost of insuring being divi ded among the policy holders, who are thus made members, as it were, of a mutual benefit ass-cia tion. The officers and directors of the Company are well-known as among our foremost and a glance at the list of their names will famiEh abundant explanations of the immense strides to ward success made by the Company during the first five years of its history. mh22-3t* CELEBRATED REEYISDALE COAL.
