In 'he list of prisoners are the cele brated Colonel Altivoffin, who was once before in our hands: ColonefAlevander, who has been with Price in all his R.-thts and flights Lieutenant Co lonel Robinson. of .

The Democrat of the 22d suggests to Gen. Hal leek the propriety of detailing these rebel prisoners to repair the North Missouri Railroad and the Go- VEPIIIII4IIt telegraph line, which their friends have destroyed. Thls mode of treatment, it thinks. would be humane, economical, and retributive—hu mane, since the rebel captives, having been so long mogul:Red to severe running exercise in this State, will suffer if placed in close confinement; mono mical, in saving to the department the expense of hiring a large gang of railroad builders; retribu tive, for a hundred reasons. The Bridges on the North 'Unsocial Rail. road Destroyed—The Road Damaged for over One Hundred Miles. Dy a preconcerted movement-, ike ...q.c.saloatela along the lire of this road, and those who have re turned recently from Price's army, have succeeded in destroying over one hundred miles of the North _Missouri Railroad_ Commencing eight miles south of Hudson, they have rendered useless the road south to Warrenton, a distance of one hundred miles. They have burnt the bridges, burnt the wod, atuA water tanks and ties. and tore up the track, and destrOyod no telegraph line for the dis- tance named. Who or how many were engaged in this work is not known, but it is plain that the whole thing was preconcerted, and that a very large number of men were concerned in it They must have been men, too, living somewhere near the line, as well as rebels from Price's army, sent there for this purpose, and all of them ought to be made to suffer for this villainy. General Hellcat will, of course, give prompt at tention to the plan of the rebels, esigned of course to prevent him from the transporting troops along the road by which to preserve the peace of that section of the butte. The road in the winter time is a necessity of the war, and cannot bo dispensed with. It should be rebuilt, and guartled by Fede ral troops from one end of it to the other. A vigo rous military system, suffielent to prevent all out rages of this kind, and to secure the capture of those who have been engaged in this vandalism, should at once be concerted It is no time now to permit men to stand idly by and wink at these out rages, without being made to feel that they are, to some extent, participants in them. In every neigh borhood, there are men who, pretending to be inno cent of what is going on, yet give encouragement and aid to those why apply the torch and de the work of des:ruction.

THE WAR IN KENTUCKY. From General Sehoepirs Army. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Comnetrcial, writing from Camp Somerset, Ky., miter date of December 20, says : i nave been waiting for some time to drop you a line, giving you some information, but it appears as though there is none yet. We had an alarm this mining, about half past three, originating, as you no doubt already divine, with Wolfosals cavalry. The Thirty-eighth Ohio to-day made a reconnoissance down the Hadson road, and found the enemy about 3,000 strong, with five pieces of artillery, at the crossing on Fi,hing creek." returning to camp the guide missed Ins way, anti the regiment across the road running to Columbia from here. Wolford's cavalry were e.n the road, and. without halting, fired thirty or forty shots, put spurs to their horses. and galloped to camp, and re ported Zollicoffer and all his forces coming. Sure enough, and this time you could see from their eyes that they had found something, and for once had brought intelligence that would enroll their names vu the roll of heroes. In a short time here came the Thirty-eighth boys, swearing, and as soon as Wolford's cavalry were mentioned a universal laugh went through the lines, and the boys all went back to quarters. The hapl say their , lot did not fall within one hundred yards of them, al though they were not more than one hundred and fifty yards distant. Two such regiments of cavalry would be enough for the whole line of the Potomac, heave the whole - western wing, &Meatier is ad- vancing every day, and I presume we will have a fight before many days. Our regiment has about 175 unable for duty, many of them very low, origi nating in the march from London. Buckner Retreating. The Louisville Journal says We are assured, upon the best authority, that IfttOlincr'a advance of " the great army of delive. ranee" is falling back upon Bowling Green, and tearing up the railroad track, to rigrard the progress of the avengers of Southern Kentucky. We never believed that the rebels would make any etelpi ex cept from behind entrenched positions. A Battle in Kentucky A battle has probably been fought before this be tween the rebel forces under Zollieoffer, and the Federal troops commanded by General &hoer,ff. By a despatch from Frankfort, it will be seen that on the morning of the 18th the latter marched from Somerset with the intention of attacking Zollicof far, who was in position on Finking erode, and. within five or ten miles of Somerset. If the rebels maintained their position, the fight must have com menced early in the day, and they could not very well retreat, as they have the Cumberland river between them and their reserve_ It isprobable that Gen. Schoepff is aware of Hum phrey Marshall's intention to effect a junction with 2cillieoffer, and has forced an engagement to pre vent it. liaving a force nearly equal to that of Zollicoffer, and undoubtedly better armed, which will go far to make up for any disparity in num bers, there is no probability that Gen. Schoepff would ever have a more favorable opportunity to .1.01.1. the le.-51,es of *battle, Zoilicogor has from 6 ; 000 to 8.000 troops, and Schoepff seven regiments, aggregating about 6,000 effective men, with two batteries of ten guns. The two Tennessee regiments have the advance, and there is not the least doubt that men burning with desire to revenge the outrages heaped upon them in East Tennessee, and animated with a pa triotism that defies PeTtleentiell And death, will Wilke hard in this encounter with the enemy. We await with confidence the intelligence of this en gagement, which will probably reach us to-day.— Cincinnati Commercial of Friday. MISCELLANEOUS WAR NEWS.

Particulars of the Destruction of the Re- Let Schooner "Royal Yacht." The Louisville Democrat says : On 'Wednesday, the telegraph reported that Lieutenant Jannett, of United States frigate Santee, now blockading Galveston, had, with the two ship's Witte, captured the rebel armed eclauouvr Royal Yacht. Instead of Jannett, it should s have kgen Lieute nant James E. Jouett, of the navy, and brother of Lieuteeaet Colonel George P_ Jouett, of the Fif teenth Kentucky Volunteers. By letters just received from the Santee, we are informed that Lieutenant Jouett, a loyal son of Kentucky, achieved a brilliant exploit, on 7th November. in capturing and burning tile lOW Yacht, under the nose of four forts, at the mouth of the bay, and in sight of-the rebel steamer Gene ral Rusk. Lieutenant Jenell, en the Li g ht er the 7t1,, at 12 o'clock, with the two launches, containing twenty men each, left the ',Santee, which was six miles off the mouth of the bay, and pulled for the General I?_us.6. a steamer mounting four heavy guns, and lying imm.diately under the guns of Pelican Fort. They intended to attempt her capture, if they could get alongside without discovery. When within We hnladred YerdS of her, they grounded on a sand shoal, and were detected, at the same time, from the Rusk's decks. They pulled off and steered across to the guard schooner Royal Yacht, and succeeded in getting within ninety yards of her, when a volley of bulleta greeted them from the schooner, killing ono and wounding five. Lieutenant Jouett's launch, car rying a boat howitzer, fired a shell, striking her at the water line. The discharge kicked the bow of the launch around, which delayed boarding her. This gave the enemy an opportunity of firing another volley, which wounded two others. Lieu tenant Jouett, standing in the bow of the launch, leaped forward, threw the grapnel, and sprang on the tat:frail. Just at this moment, the captain of the Royal Yacht (the notorious Captain Chubby, of Boston, famous as a ruffian) drove a sword bayonet through Lieutenant Tommie hand, and instantly thrusting again, sent the point through his arm, just above the joint of the elbow, into the left side, between the ribs, and into the lungs, The weapon was wrenched from his hand, the schooner boarded, and after a sharp struggle the crew surrendered. At this time the position of the boarders was most critical, and but for the great expedition in action they would probably have hem torocci to a fight with o:mama - . Tile P9l499n er was instantly fired in several places. The hole from the shell at the water line was fast filling her, and the prisoners having been put into the launch, thirteen in number, including the captain, they made for home. After much difficulty, the pilot of the boats having been shot down, and the compass broken, they Succeeded in reaching the Sankt, at half-past six o'clock in the morning. The whole night was one of danger, Lieutenant Jouett, though terribly cut, was able to command the expedition back to the ship, and did not sink from the loss of blood until reaching his own deck. He was confined to his bed for fourteen days, but we are able 110 W to annomme his eonvaleseence. They started back by the light of the burning eshooner, having lost three men killed and several wounded. The schooner was heavily armed. 'We think the success worthy or eakulutivu,oda tore to do justice to a native Kentuekt—, w ho so Nothing but his courage and determination saved the expedi tion. Lieutenant Jouett's risk was double, and we may ray that to-day he to ffg - Itctug with, a flatter around his neck. It will be remembered that he was the first prisoner of the war, having been taken by the enemy at the Warrington navy yard when that point was seized. Ho was at the time lieu. tenant of the United States steamer Crusader. He refused to take the oath of allegiance to the South ern Confederacy, and is now striving with all the strength of his nature, backed by eighteen years of experience on a man-of-war, to overthrow that miserable attempt at government. Rumor that Gene Wise is Advancing on Kelly. A correspondent of tho Cinoinnati Times ; writing from Camp Keys, Komney, Va., under date of De cember 17, says : Last night, about ten o'clock, two companies of the Fifth Regiment were ordered out., and orders given for the regiment to have forty rounds of cartridges apiece, and hold themselves in readiness for an attack. It is reported that "Old Governor Wise" is making an advance movement upon. G ar 474ly's swrimi-tad ac Romnry, whit agora ezght thousand men. It is also stated that he has plenty of good artillery.

Mr. Everts stated to the assemblage that this was the Innaufiao of John Adams, in a speech made in the Conti nental Congress, in the city of Philadelphia, and that it was proper that a response to the toast should come from the Keystone State. We are honored, he continued, by the presence this evening of Governor Curtin, of Penn sylvania, whom I now present to you: Cm-ti. thcn proceeded to mnair as follows 31E. PERSIDENT .ND GENTLEMEN OF THE NEW ENG LAND SOCIETY: I accepted the invitation to be present this evening, that I might enjoy the privilege of meeting with loyal men outside of the State of Pennsylvania, and avow Prom Me pfttriesic eeneirrmiip I expected to bear from the descendants of the Puritans and my expectations have not been disappointed. [and ap plause.] Thank God, I have never looked into the face of a disloyal Pennsylvanian since the commencement of the rebellion.

That it had been awned and generally understood that when the freight bridge of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company would be completed, the constant multiplication of trains on Market, Third, and Dock streets was to come; but now 09 propeshlea was to make nun sonisance perpotuali becinullYi The constant running of trains over the track, and cruel beating of mules, so shocking to the instincts of human ity, have been, and will be, calculated to drive business ft om the city. Thirdly, The remonetrauts, though lA/- Ways willing to submit to, and anxious to promote, any measures tending to the general welfare, do proteet against the leasing of the road for the merely nominal rent of RI per year. This railroad has yielded to the city $El,3tO; and the contract is only a one-sided affair -wry good for the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, but Tory 1 - ' 3 . O t k —th e oLtidiAn6grati4 valuable monopoly. A member called for the reading Of the named attached to the remonstrance. Mr. MILLER replied that the namesof the signers, with the loo.a-lor. of Mel, ete.,., - were given im tho paper. The Clerk read tie names of several merchants doing busineas on Market street, when the call for a further reading was withdrawn. • Another communication, on the same subject, was sub mitted hy Itu-t-nn 7 81 a 46161 i4 frvm Jeptlia Marshal!, to pay a yearly rental of $3,000 for the use of the road, with a security in amount double the said MM. Mr. M. also proposed to keep the road in good order during the whole period of the lease. The first business in order for the consideration of His Chamber being the bill providing for a lease of the Mar ket-street Railroad to the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany, for a period of thirty-three years, at a yearly rental of $l, the same was taken up. Tilt pending question was stated by the Chair to be on an taitglllMellt to the first section to strike out that portion specifying the amount of rental at $l, and insert is lieu thereof a provision requiring the payment of $5,000 per year, for the use of the road. On agreeing to the amendment, the yeas anti nays wore called with the following result—yeas 27, nays 32; so it was not awed to. The question recurring on the first section of the bill, it was negatived by the following vote—yeas 25, nays 37. The bill consequently fell. Mr HARPER, from the Committee on Finance, re perfe,l u reeebrdop opyrusing the sureties of the Gay Treasurer elect, Dr. Moulintocli, the committee having examined the same; also, a resolutbn approving the sureties of John Johnson, one of the @ity Commissioners. Agreed to. Mi-- Poir , ihrt, from flay 'o9TlNTltifero on Eisifiorays, re ported an ordinance to authorize the transfer of certain items of appropriation, made to the Department of High ways, for the erection of sewers, &c., and cleansing of the city for the year 1861. MR. POTTER stated his objection to certain particulara of the ordinance, especially that relative to repairs of a culvert in the vicinity of Coates street wharf. He desired that the Department of Highways, before they contracted any bills, should make known to Councils the fact that they have exhausted the reauieite apprepriationk that Certain business should he performed, to do which a transfer of items was necessary. The bills for the pay. melt of which the preset.t project of a tranaer of items was demanded should be presented as deficiency bills, whereity their true character would he oppropriatel de eigne tei Iloncnox said that a transfer of items of appro. propriation to pay certain expenses was a usual custom at the close of each year. Ile believed that the Highway Department had used all good endeavors, during the pre sent year, to guard the city from extravagance. Mr. A. MILLER said : On an examination, in the Con troller's office, of bills that have been passed an 4 paid, I found that quite a number of those bills hid never been submitted to the appropriate committee of this body for examination_ That committee, duels,. the puo - &eiit ycar t have enntrosed that much had been done by them to the advantage of the city in making a careful scruriny of every bill contracted by the Department of Highways before its being sent to the Controller. In loosing over the bilis in that office, I datevered that most ,genorally the larger bills had been passed by the Commissioner without their being submitted to the committee. The subject was further discussed, and the orlinance finally disagreed to, as foillows--yoas 26. nays 30. • Trueis subml4.4 making an appropriation to the Board of Managers of the Wills Hospital, for the use of said hospital, for the year 1862. Passed dually. The Committee on Wharves reported a resolution au thorlaing the lease of Ahnotad-street laodle. . Arrsood to. Mr. Hearse. read in place an ordinance for the con struction of the Chestnut-street bridge, supplementary in its uature to an Ordinance PreVioustv adopted by the (3 . ~ ”Lr,==rta refervln6pertivu r ieriyio vitß superstrucvaro of the work. Not ogrced to. An ordinance was presented from the Committee on Police, providing for the payment of fifty dollars to James Wood, a policeman, who has been confined to his <,IP Minstils having reocireg Wirers injury in the discharge of his duty. The resolution from the Select Branch to authorize the Chief Engineer and Surveyor to thaw certain warrants wits agreed to. A resolution of thanks to Mr. E_ Marehment. an mist of Pluladelohin, for the presentation of a portrait of the late Lieutenant John T. D. Creble, was unanimously ttoorted. On motion, an ordinance to make an appropriation for Ile Chard C.olle- m , for plume for to- yt--tr iscF , WAS taken up. The bill appropriates $71,376 out of the in come of the Girard estate. This total is made up of sums for clothing for the imitates, repairs to the buildings, compensations of president, teachers, and other officers of the ollege. Dlr. CRUM l iI. moved to strike out those items or appropriation providing for the purchase of implements end tools for teaching the boys their various trades. Ile thought that the spirit and letter of the will of the donor contemplated merely that preparatory ethiltaB doAtiold to fit the boys of the institution' for practical knowledge. Mr. Ipnitsm said that the subject of introcuciog in struction in trades bad been agitated for several years. The idea was, that if the boys obtained a smattering of the bLlPihk.kni to *:•hie}. they were exoecied to eventually devote themselves, such instruction would be moat profitable. Mr. Qum: thought that the eyelet!' of education which instilled into' the youthful Mind some idoa of the rudi imniney mechanics 1. - .45 ita meat realty ionefiekil For this reason, be favored the introduction among the boys of the college, of some knowledge of a Workingman's tools. Mr. URESSWELL opined that sneeeee in life depended twining and oulliration, which formed the buts of solid worth. Mr. TREGO remarked that an adaptativeness to the MO of mechanical teals was required by, mon in all de partments of social life, professional or mechanical. Ho thsuklik this ParticU6r appropriation eminently wi,o mat just, in view of the incidental requirements of every day life. The motion to strike out was disagreed to, and the ordinance passed finally. Adjournisl.
