S. Money-Making The Annnal Report of the Hon. James Pol lock, Director of the Mint of the United States in Philadelphia, addressed to the Secretary of the Treasury, has just been printed. Dowers the fiscal year ending on the , last day of June, 1861. It embraces many topics of great inte rest, and offers some suggestions of import ance. In no former year was a larger amount of bullion received and coined at the Mint. In addition to the precious metals received from the mines of the United States, there was an unusually large importation of foreign coin and bullion. The total deposits of bullion, received at the Mint and its branches, in the year 1860- 61, amounted in value to $121,504,904: do .ducting the re-deposits of bullion, or bars made at one institution and deposited at ano ther, for coinage, the total is $72,146,571. In this period of twelve months the total coinage of nickel cents was in value of $lOl,- 660 ; the whole coinage,—gold, silver, and nickel,—amounted to $83,693 ‘ 767 ; the num ber of pieces of all denominations of coin, was 23,724,913. " The apportionment of this coinage was as fbllows: At PiULADELPUIA, total deposits of gold and silver, $53,617,072; total coinage, $49,666,130; number of pieces, 21,315,255. At the branch Mint at SAN FRANCISCO, total coinage of gold and silver, $12,090,485 ; num ber of pieces, 1,144,300. At the Assay Office at Nair- Toarr, where there is no coinage, there was received• gold and silver bullion to the value of $54,149,865. The latest return from NEW ORLEANS is to the 31st January, 1861—viz : coinage, $1,009,818; number of pieces, 1,237,800. From the branch Mint at DARLONEOA, the latest report, up to February 28, 11361, shows $60,946 coined, ,in 13,442 pieces. From the branch Mint at CuAnt,orrh, latest return to, the last day of March, 1861, coinage, $70,580, in 14,116 pie . ces. Still, not withstanding the defection of the three last named branch Mints, owing to the . treason of the States of Louisiana, Georgia, and North Carolina, the coinage of 1860-61 has been greater than that of any former year• since the organization of the Government. The Director of the Mint has been unable to procure specimens of the gold and silver coin issued at New Orleans, since the defection, to ascertain whether. any adulteration or reduc tion in the value of the issues of that branch had been obtained. Mr. Pollock truly re marks: w The treason that can refuse to re. cognize the lawful authority of a just Govern ment, would not hesitate to adulterate the coin, made in an institution wrested from that Government by lawless violence; nor would it blush to conceal the wrong, under the em blems and devices of an honored national coin age." , The reader of history need not be re minded that Treason and Tyranny are alike unser:mu/ens and dishonest. When James the Second, justly driven from the British throne, because he strove to become an abso lute and irresponsible monarch, placed himself in the van of Civil War In Ireland, in hopes of recovering the crown which ho had justly forfeited, he issued base money, to pay the very troops by whose valor he sought to redeem himself. Count Avaux, the French Envoy who accompinied hiin to Ireland, has recorded that the issue of base coin WS3 so great that even brass became scarce in Dublin, and it was necessary' to ask assistance from Louis XIV, who charitably bestowed on his ally an oldcracked piece of cannon, to be coined, into crowns and half crofts. Of course, vthen.the Civil War was ended, this base mohey fell from its .nominal to its real value ; by order of William of Orange, the successful competitor of his father-in-law, King James, the crown pieces were ordered to be reduced from the value of sixty pence to one penny each, and smaller coins in proportion. Whenever. Hydra-headed. Rebellion is crushed' in this country, the Now Orleans coinage, since the'secession, will have to be assayed and reduced to its determinate value. It is gratifying to find that a large amount of the gold deposited at the Mint and its branches Was the product of the mines of the United States. From this source was re ceived $14,210,889, out of $116,970,002 in gold, and $610,011, out of $1,621,- 661 in silver. Much of this domestic silver was obtained by separating it from the gold deposits in which it was found. An increasing quantity is yielded by the mines of the Washoo region, and we arc, also informed that "the gold mines of Kansas amply repay the miner for his toil." Moreover, new and valuable silver mines have been discovered in the Territory of Arizona, about one hun dred and sixty miles from the Gulf of California, and only a few tulles from the proposed line of the Southern Pacific railroad. The ore and its product in silver, as exhibited at the Mint, encourage the belief, Mr. Pol lock reports, that ‘, this region will soon rival, in the extent and variety of its mineral pro ductions, the Oa mines of Mexico, or the other silver-producing sections of our OM country." For the most part, the Coinage of the past year consisted principally of double eagles. 4 ; This," the director reports, " Was In consequenoe of the unusually largo amount of gold deposits,—the demand by deposi tors for that denoinination of coin, and to prevent the delay inseparably incident to the conversion of the bullion received into the smaller denomina tions. "The gold dollar requires the same time, and 'number of manipulations in the process of coining, as the double-eagle ; oonsequently, whilst the mint OM coin $2,0,000,000 in value, of double-eagles,t can coin only one million in gold dollars. The same ratio obtains in the other denominations of the gold coin. Renee the delay when the deposits of bullion aro large, and the returns aro to be made in the smaller coins. If any system could be devised, or rule established, by which the necessity of ad justing each individual gold coin of the lesser de• nomination, could be obviated, the delay in making returns to depositors would not ()our, and the production of small gold coin be facilitated to an almost indefinite extent. An'inerease'in the de viation from the standard weight of the quarter eagle and gold dollar, would, with proper caution, the perfection of the Mint machinery, and the skill of the workmen, render the adjustment of each piece as now practised, unnecessary. By the act of Congress, March 3, 1249, the deviation from the standard weight allowed for the quarter-eagle and gold dollar, is one-fourth of a grain in a single piece; and in one thousand quarter-eagles, ono pennyweight; and in one thousand gold . dollars, ono half pennweight. The deviation allowed for the half-eagle by the same act, in a single piece, is one half grain; and in one thousand pieces, one and a half pennyweighta. "Now, it is believed, that if the deviation al lowed for the half-eagle was extended by law to the quarter-eagle and gold dollar, these ooins could be produced rapidly, and accurately within that limit; and taus the present tedious mode of adjustment and consequent delay be avoided. The experience of the peat in' silver coinage proves the practicability of those suggestions. The loss, how ever, in any event, would be more than compen sated by the increased production of the smaller 40mi, and the decrease of expenditure consequent on a reduction of the force necessarily employed in the adjusting department of the Mint. "If authority could be_ given by law to the Di rector of the Mint, under the direction of the Bis. enter) , of the Treasury, to test, by experiment, the practicability of these suggestions, this question would soon receive a speedy, and, it is not doubted, ,a favorable solution. Tho subject is worthy of consideration " It is gratifying to find that ce the capacity of the Mint for coinage is fully equal to the wants of the Government and people, and, with a suf ficient bullion found, no delay in making ro - turns to depositors would be experienced." The capacity of the Mint, with a full force "and working the regular hours, in double eagles exclusively, is equal to an annual coin age of $160,000,000; of eagles, $75,000,000; half.eagles, $07,500,000; quarter-eagles, $1.8,- 760,000; three-dollar pieces, $22,500,000; gold dollars, $7,500,000. Coining an equal number of all denominations of gold coin, the Vint could annually produce 01,875,000—ex clusive of silver coinage of all denominations, , of which $15,000,000 could be annually pro. 'duced—roaking . the capacity of the Mint in gold and silver, of pieces of all - denominations, $66;875,000 per anuttin; nor, fin' any, former 'yCar, has this capaeltyinen equalled. This is the caleulation of what could be done in Philadelphia, where the establishment real- ly is the Mint of the United States. This capacity, - vast as it is, could be great ly extended by coining Moro of the larger pieces of money, or by working double time and employing a double force, without straining the present admirable machinery, or requiring It to be augmented. It is clear, then, that the Mint is fully able to coin as much money as can possibly be required, g , and this, too, without any delay, if the condition of the Na tional Treasury will permit the use of a suffi cient bulfion•fund—a fund authorized by law, and out of which depositors were promptly paid the ascertained value of their deposits— the Treasury being reimbursed by the coin produced from the bullion deposited." In a word, this is the foreign system, which has been found to Work well. In Paris or in Lon don a person having bullion takes it to the Bank of France or the Bank of England, as the case may be, and when its value is ascer tained, by testing its quality, receives an equivalent at once, in coin, or in bank notes, which are legal representatives of specie, in France and England. Out of $799,528,562 coined, in gold, silver, and copper, at the Mint of the United States and its branches, from their respective orga nizations to the 80th of Juno, 1861, about $520,000,000 was from bullion derived from the mines of the United States. The Director estimates the - amount of specie in the United States, at the date of his report, (October 10, 1861,) at from $250,000,000 to $300,000,61:10, all of which, except about $20,000,000, ho as sumes is held within the loyal States of the Union. The Report strongly argues that the gold dollar of the United States, conforming in standard value and decimal character, (which the silver dollar does not,) should be retained as the standard of value for all foreign coins used or employed in commercial or Govern mental transactions, and submits that, if the silver dollar also be the standard, wit should be reduced to seven-eighths of an ounce, to be in true relation to our other silver coins." The silver dollar is now paid out at tho Mint at the even price of 108 cents, which justifies the Director's suggestion at reducing its weight. • Another suggestion, which we have not now space for entering fully upon, is "that the limit of legal tender for silver should be in creased. It is now five dollars; it should not be so low. This limitation unnecessarily dis credits the currency, and is productive of much inconvenience to individuals and bank ing institutions. The limit might, with great propriety and advantage to public and private interests;bo' extended to fifty or one hundred dollars." The Report closes with an announcement that the National, and other American Medals of historic interest, then in preparation nt, the Mint, were to be ready for sale and delivery about the 20th of October :—theso are exact fae•similes, in copper (bronze) of tho origi nal medals, and the prices have been fixed as low as possible. An Appendix contains nu merous statistical and other tables of interest and,value. Wo close this first Report of the now Direc tor of the Mint with an expression of gratitude for its admirable lucidity of statement. Mr. Pollock 'hereby proves himself no unworthy successor to Mr. Snowden and others of his predecessors. Notices of New. Books ALEXIS DE TOGQIIEVILLE.—The well-known au thor of "Democracy in America" ended his earthly pilgrimage early in 1859, before ho had oompleted hie fifty-fourth year. For a time, ho was lawyer end legislator, but abandoned publio lifo after the coup d'etat of December, 1851, after having, only two years before, been Foreign Minister to Napoleon, then President of the Frenoh Republic. It is as a writer, however, that his name will live. Over thirty years ago, ho was sent with his friend, Gus tave do Beaumont, to visit the United States,. to inquire into our Penitentiary system, which was a novelty then. He travelled extensively through this country, closely watching its political develop ments. On his return he broke into authorship, with his work on the Penitentiary System of the United States, published in 1832, which has gone through numerous editions. In this ho was assisted by his co-reporter, De Beaumont. In 1835, at the age of thirty, Do Tocqueville produced his Demo cracy in America, a singularly valuable work, in which fact and speoulation aro enviously blended. Its success was groat, and one critic pronounood it " a continuation of Montesquieu." It has been translated into so many languages that few modern Fronoh books, on grave subjects, aro better known. Twenty-one years Inter (in 1856), he published " L'Anoien Regime of la Revolution," also a very able Work, in which, however, while enumerating the leading causes of the Revolution in France, the author oddly forgot to mention Rio previous Revo lution in,Ameriea. Do Toequoville wrote one other work of importance. Histoiro critique du repo do Louis XV.," a few political pamphlets, and Acodemical discourses and brochures. In October, 1835, ho married an accomplished young English lady, who survives him.' The union was in all ways fortunate and happy. In easy cirounnitanoes, without much wealth, their life glided pros perously along for nearly the fourth of a cen tury. A few months ago appeared in Paris, edited by M. Gustave de Beaumont, the Me moir, Letters, and Remains of his friend Do., Tocqueville. Of this, with large additions, Ticknor and Fields, of Boston, have now issued an excellent translation. The biography itself is short, but the journals and correspondence of De Tocqueville add largely and satisfactorily to it, and even hie conversation has been well reported for these pages, by Professor Senior, the well known political economist of Hoglund. Hie let ters, which occupy fully throtollfthe cf tho work, show the writer in domes& life, with his literary views and his running comments upon politics through a course of many years. Nearly 200 tinges, in the first volume, are oceupiad by Do Teeple. villa's unpublished works—two of which relate his adventures in the United States. ,Two chapters of his "France before the Consulate" will cause re• gret that ho did not complete that work. The publie have every amuse to thank the spirited Ame rican publishers for these volumes, for Do Tacque. ville, who treated co largely and so searchingly of our political institutions, is a man in whom a gene• ral interest must always here bo felt. It is proper to draw attention, too, to the general getting up of this book. Tho printing is that of the well-known Riverside press, upon laid paper, white and sized. The volumes aro on eats five by B. Lippincott d; Co., and T. B. Peterson & Brother. BAYARD TAYLOR'S PROSE WRlTlNoB.—Mr,Put nem, of Now York, has commenced the New Year with the publication of the Caxton edition of Bayard Taylor's prose writings, which will be issued in ten monthly volumes. The first contains "At Horne and Abroad: a Sketeh.book of Life, Scenery, and Man." It consists of detached sketches, of sooner, occurrences, and eminent persons, encountered du ring the author's journoyings in various parts of America and Europe.' These are of various de grees of merit—but the beet are genial descriptions of rural life in Germany, the freshness and fidelity of which are admirable, and pen-portraits of Earo peon authors. Mi. Taylor has surprising aptitude in hitting off these portraits in a few words. For example, of Mr. Spurgeon, the popular " preacher, we are told that his face " is any thing but agreea ble to look upon—being round and full, with round eyes, fat, flabby cheeks, a pug nose, and short lips, gaping apart to exhibit some very prominent front teeth." Two lines after this wo have Kinglake, the author of "Eothen," and Layard, the Nineveh explorer. Mr. Kinglet° is small, pale roan, with blond hair and moustache, and bluish-gray eyes. IBS manner is quiet and subdued, and only a few would guess his concealed capacity for enthusiastic fooling and courageous action." On the other hand, " Layard is a man of forty, with a frank, open, energetic face, clear gray epee, and hair prematurely gray about the temples." Of Leigh Hunt be says: "That dainty grace which is the chief charm of his poetry, yet lives in his person and manners. He is seventy.three years old, but the effects of age aro only physical ; they have not touched that buoyant, joyous nature, which survives in spite of sorrow and misfortune. His deep-set eyes still beam with a soft, cheerful earnest light; his voice is musical, and his bait, although silver-white, falls in fine, silky locks 'on both sides of his face." The longer sketches, of his more extended intercourse with Humboldt, Lockhart, and Tennyson are deeply in teresting. Indeed, it booms to us that Mr. Taylor describes neon better than things. His account of the Telegraphic Trip to Newfoundland and of his to the Mammoth Cave read as if tit - ay - had been hastily contributed to a newspaper—and aro scoreelY',worth being preserved in a book. Two chapters On the Supernatural are unsatisfaotory ; if every one recorded his dreams and fancies there would be .0, infinity of eantenee.apinning. Mr. Taylor's noimunt of his struggles in London, as a young author, is towelling in itsAvident truthful ness. His Hamblea in Warwick:dike also will in terest all who love the memory of goutlo Shak- epotre. The description of Mr. Taylor's German home—long may ho live to own tt, the gift of friendship I—is also extremely good. In short, this is a very pleasant volume--just the book to take up in an odd , half hour of leisure, and become hap pier and sometimes wiser from its perusal. It is well got up; with gay but substantial binding, clear typography on softly-tiated paper, and four engravings on steel. The series, which this volume commences, will include a new set of Sketches, and an original work of fiction. Mr. John Megarlan, 33 South Sixth street, is sole agent for Pennsylvania and Delaware. NATIoNAL PORTRAIT GIALLERY.—A novelty in illustrated biography is the National Portrait Gal lery of Eminent Americans. It 'is to appear in about fifty semi-monthly parts, each containing two full-length original portraits from engravings on steel, with sixteen pages of letter-press. The latter, oonsisting wholly of biographies of the origi nals of the portraits, will be from the pen of Evert A. Dayokinck, favorably known as joint editor (with his brother George,) of the Literary World, for many years, and also of that standard work, the °plop:lia of American Literature. Mr. Duyokink's style is easy, he writes excellent Eng lish, eschews spasmodic sentences, collects foots with diligence, and states them with impartiality. The portraits, which will be full-length, each with a fao•simile signature, arc all from Mr. Alonzo Chappell's original paintings. The low price will bring each portrait and memoir et only twelve ants. The work is to ho supplied only to sub scribers. The four numbers published give por traits,of Washington Irving, John Quincy Adams, It. Clay, A. Hamilton, De Witt Clinton, James Madison, Andrew Jaokson, and Richard Henry Leo. The publishers are Johnson, Fry, d Co., New rork. s GLIMPSES OF ANIMATED NATURE.—This i 8 a handsome octavo volume, by W. J. O'Neill, with nearly three hundred env ming 3, including &frontis piece printed in colors, and 425 pages. It has the ad vantage of being at once low-priced and good. Published by C. DoalWor, who has added the Select Metamorphoses and lioroides of Ovid, translated by Thomas Clarke and George W. 116ilig, to his welt known series of the Greek and Latin Classics, on the Hamiltonian system. .BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE.—ThO reprint of the December number has reached us, through Mr. W. B. Bieber, South Third street, agent for this and the Four Britishßeviews. Maga seems to have turned over a now leaf. Two good novels aro running through it : Captain Clutterbuck's Cham pagne, with the scene in Jamaica, showing the lights and shades of Colonial life, and The Chroni cles of Carlingford, which may have been written, for aught we know, by the author of "Adam Bede ;" its style, however, is better. There is the commencement, too, of Wassail, a Christmas story. Another noticeable paper is Fetcher in Hamlet and Othello. The number, which is far above average merit, concludes with A Month with the Rebels and Some Account of Both Sides of the American War. As might be expected, there is a great leaning here in favor of the South. THE REBELLION. THE WAR IN KENTUCKY. PROCLAMATION OF ZOLLICOFFER TO TIIE CITIZENS. LATE NEWS FROM THE SOUTH.

To the People of Southern ICenturty : The brigade I have the honor to command is here for no purpose of war upon Kentuckians, but to re pel those Northern hordes who, with arms in their hands, are attempting the subjugation of a sister Southern State. They have closed your rivers, em bargoed your railroads, cut off your natural and proper markets, left your 'stook and prodaeo on hands almost valueless, and thereby almost destroyed the value of your lands and labor. We have come to open again your rivers, to restore the ancient mar kets for your produce, and thereby to return to you the accustomed value of your lands and labor. They have represented uses murderers and outlaws. Wo have come to convince you that we truly respect the laws, revere justice, and mean to give security to your personal and property rights. They have forced many of you to take up arms against us. We come to take you by the hand as heretofore—as friends and brothers. Their Go vernment has laid heavy taxes on you to carry on this unnatural war, one object of which is openly avowed to bo to set at liberty your slaves, and the ensuing steps in which wilt he to put arms In their hands, and give thorn political and social equality with yourselves. We saw these things In the be ginning, and aro offering our hearts' blood to avert those dreadful evils which we saw the Abolition leaders had deliberately planned for the South. "All men must have the BALLOT, or none,--all men west have the bullet, or none," said Mr. Seward, the present Federal Secretary of State. How long will Kentuckians close their eyes to the contemplated ruin of their present structure of so ciety? How long will they continue to raise their arms against brothers of the South struggling for those rights, and for that independence common to AS all, and which was guarantied to all by the Cfon stitution of 1787? For many long years wo re monstrated against the encroachments against rights, and the insecurity 'to that property thus guarantied, which these Northern hordes so re 'morsely inflicted upon us, They became deaf to our remonstrances, because they believe they had the power, and felt in every fibre the will, to 4 , whip us in." We have disappointed them. We have broken their columns in almost every oonfltet. (Qy: how about Wild Cat?) We have early aequired. prestige of success, which has strieken terror into the Northern heart. Their "grand armies" have been held in cheek by comparatively few but stern hearted men ; and now they would invoke Ken tucky valor to aid them in beating down the true sena of the South who have stood the shook, and in bringing common ruin upon Kontnoky and her kindred people. Will you play this unnatural part, Kentuckians? Heaven forbid! The memories of the past forbid. The honor of your wives and daughters, your pat renown, and the fair name of your posterity, forbid that you should strike for Lincoln and the abolition of slavery, against those straggling for the rights and independence of your kindred race.

L. NEWS FROM THE SOUTH. The Southern Situation, [From the Richmond 'Examiner, Dec. 28.) The stare in their courses fought against Sisara, and every earthly event conspires against Lincoln. Lions have sprung up in his path on the land, and the behemoth of the Boas has started out of the mid ocean in the wake of his fiesta. Armies that were not imagined have arisen like the hosts of Cadmus from the invaded earth; weapons have sprang from the ground like grass; victorious chieftains have dropt as from the clouds to use thorn. The ty rant's blows have recoiled on his own head, his sword has wounded his own hand, and when he thought most surely to grasp a prey, he found his prize to be the deadly scorpion. Every seeming success has proved disguised misfortune, and omit step forward has carried him deeper in the fatal sands. lie commenced this war with the universe at his hack ; ho has now not one friend in the wide world. Be began the game without one enemy be yond the limits of 11 forlorn republic; and silent nations now look coldly on while Britain draws the avenging sword to deal the long-delayed, but dou bly-deserved, stroke of fate and justice. The stars in their courses fought against Siesta, and the Lord of the stars, the sun, and the earth has laid his band on our oppressor. Else the Con federate Goverment would have proven a weak reed. No men have better reason to sing a Non miss Donsine than those who have apparently held the reins of power in this country. Not their wisdom, not their skill, not their foresight or dex terity, has wrought these wonderful results. From the first day of the revolution to this hour they have exhibited a want of prescience find' enter prise, a tech of the larger statesmanship, and an inability to comprehend the nature of the 'IIIOV4- mew they were on, which the historian' philosopher, who shall hereafter dissect their actions and mo tives, will declare to have been truly pitiable. The alp on the tide could scarcely have less to do with its ebb and flow. Theirpolicyhaa been a series of makeshifts, which have been annihilated by each succeeding wave; their calculations for a moral earthquake resemble the sand houses of children in the stage road. We have yet to bear of ono mea sure either equal to the event, or in time for it. Virginia had the power to render the separation peaceable ; she rendered It sanguinary by her in capacity to credit the possibility of that separation. The Confederacy had time to prepare an army which might have terminated the contest in a month, and the Congress, at Montgomery, could not believe that war was even probable till Alexan dria had been surrendered, and the line of the Po tomac lost for the year. Now that the year is ended, and the army intended for the summer's work must be reorganized for a struggle of years, what public man or parliamentary body can be brought to a belief in the only means that other na tions now know for the creation of snob an army ?, No one thinks of conscription. We have only the old story of more volunteers, snore militia ' more makeslafts for a month, not a law for the century. And, while all eyes are directed to the seas, and eur best hopes hover over the movement in Europe, what has Congress done, or is about to do, in aid of it? As much, arid no more than it did to create it, If 'England makes a war on the United States and an alliance with the South, those inoidents, like the secession of Virginia, will be the work of Lincoln and an overruling Providence. The Con federate Government bath /either lot nor part in them. By declaring free trade with all the world for a term of years, it had the power to sot Europe against the United States king ago, but that bold measure wee above its daring and its understanding of the war. It halted at a halfway house, neither reaching the benefits of trade for our ourselves nor throwing the balance of, commerce against the enemy. The Southern Confederempleeeps up a tariff of fifteen per cent. The , Confederacy gate not one • penny of revenue from it. 'lt does the Government no good at all, and is just sufficient to save the North from competition. The Southern tariff is. fifteen per cent.; the Northern tariff is , thirty. But the merchant who sonde his goods to Savannah. moat not only pay Moen per cent. of duty, but tan fifty per cent. of risk that they aro seized by the enemy 'e cruisers; while, if he sends them to New York, he has only the thirty cents of the tariff to encounter, but no risk at all from an enemy. Under those conditions, commerce is not likely to flow towardti the Southern tweet, or are commercial nations over eager to quarrel with the North in our behalf. But let the Congress, which meets next Monday, in response to the British movement towards us, pro. claim complete free trade for three or five years. Let it send that news to England by the return of that steamer that has brought the tidings of the Queen's proclamation, and it will have ren dered the quarrel now began nearly irreparablb. It will have done better. It will have supplied; the Southern army with arms, and the Southern people with those thousand necessaries the want!of which renders eiviiized life nearly insupportable, if not impossible. For the bribe of no duty commerce will risk everything. Even the gallows has- been insufficient to doter the smuggler ; what will a blockade effect against the ingenuity which ie in spired by avarice and unchecked by the fear of law ? It would put every nation that sends a ship to sea on our side. It would, in a few weeks, give twenty nausea of war, each ono better than the ar-, rest of the two ambassadors. It would render the great commercial nation in which we now hope, eager to employ its treasure and its sword, not to avenge its own insult alone, but to insure our SW coos. It would establish the claim of the Southern politicians to be considered statesman, who luel both the capacity to understand the situation of - their own and other countries, and the courage to strike a mortal blow at the common enemy. But we hope little front the Congress now in session. Like the last Convention of Virginia, it is composed, for the most part, of men who learned their lessons in the school of the late United States. They belong to the decline of that power. They lived in a period when blindness had settled on the councils of their nation, and were deep in the petty expedients of the Yankee policy, intended for the petty end of an iuimediato and material prosperity, devoid of all lofty principles, conceited in itself, ig norant both of history past and present, and oblivi ous of all things beyond the party strife had party views of their day. Another Congress will meet in February—Congress elected by the people. Perhaps it may contain some men of a new generation ; men not educated at Washington ; who have witnessed the ruin of a grent nation in the middle of its career, and who hove watched with silent scorn the imbe cility of those who have, during ten years and more, been their rulers, end passed for their represeata lives. Oversthis body will preside Mr. Tyler. the last living link that binds us to a very different sot --to that succession of real statesmen who led the late republic up the hill of power; and in its ranks may we not hope to find some, now unknown, who have their minds yet unobsoured with the dregs of our late public folly and corruption, and who shall be found gifted with the wisdom of those, oar an cestors, of whom lie is ono of the last cotempo ratios ? MISCELLANEOUS WAR NEWS. The Pottsville Volunteers and the De fence of the Capital. IIIiADQUARTERS N32061 . 1"-9LVIII REGIIITNT P.V., CAMP NORTHUMBERLAND, FAIRFAX CO., VA., January 1, 1802. [Correspondence of Tho Prem.] In your Rene of yesterday, December 31, con taining a tt Record of the Rebellion, from January to December, 1861," you do injustice, no doubt in advertently, to about throe hundred and fifty brave men; and as I am convinced that you will speedily and cheerfully correct it, I will briefly state the circumstances of the ease. In your record of April 16, you state: "The Ringgold Flying Artillery, of Reading, Pa., Captain Samoa McKnight, one bun hundred and eighty men, with four Hold-pesos, sot out for Washington, via Harrisburg, being the first troops to respond to the call of the President." On the 17th day of April, the National Light In fantry, Capt. Edmund McDonald, 114 men, and the Washington Artillerista, Capt. James Wren, 117 men, both of Pottsville, Pa.,aot out for Washington. They arrived at Harrisburg on the eyening of ' the 17th, remained there over night, and on the morn ing of the 18th the Ringgold Flying ArtillorY, Capt. James MoKnlght, of Reading, Pa.; the Na tional Light Infantry, Capt. E. McDonald, and Washington Artillerists, Capt. 3. Wren, of Potts ville, Pa.; the Allen Light Infantry, Capt. 'Yeager, of Allentown, Pa ; and a companyfrom Lewistown, Pa., under Capt. Stemmer, were drawn up in line, on Market street, Harrisburg, and mustered into the United States service, by Capt. S. H. Simmons, U. S. A., and immediately after sot out for Wash ington, in a special train over the Northern Central Railroad, where they arrived on the evening of the 18th, being the first troops to answer tho call of the President. The Ringgold Flying Artillery did not have four field pieces, but, instead, the whole force were to tally unarmed, with the exception of a few sabres, belonging to the flying artillery. I make this state ment injustice to theoMoers and men of those com panies, with the exception of the Flying Artillery, who receive all the 'credit, whereas all left Harris burg and arrived at Washington at the same time. Our worthy colonel, Henry L. Cake, was a cor poral at that time in the National Light Infantry, and subsequently arose to the position of colonel of the Twenty-fifth Regiment P. V., Of which those five companies formed a part. Colonel Cake served with great credit during the three-months cam paign, when he returned home, and recruited the Ninty-sixth Regiment, with whom he is now serving with great honor to himself and the men under him. Respectfully yours, anima G. BOYER, First Liout. oommorlingp. it., 96th liegt.lP.V. The Final Departure of Mason and Slidell from this Country. The Boston Journal of tbo 2d instant says the departure of Slidell and Mason from Fort Warren, yesterday, was conducted as quietly as possible. The garrison, with the exception of the guards on duty, wore kept from the side of the fort where the prisoners' quarters are, and there wore but few per eons upon the wharf, when they embarked. The other political prisoners, as they bade them good bye, congratulated them on their release. Mr. Mason went oil in good humor. Indeed, he has recently been in good spirits, and has borne his im prisonment with the air of a philosopher. Idr. Slidell was somewhat sulky, and not at all pleased at going in such an unostentatious manner, and in such a vessel. Be evidently expected that a steamer would come here especially for thorn. Part of his ill-nature may bo owing to his health, which has not been good for some weeks, keeping him pretty close to his room, although he has not called for medical aid. The tug Starlight, with the four rebels, reaohed Provincetown a little before five P. M, and imme diately proceeded to the English sloop-of-war Ri ne/do, and transferred her passengers. Com. Hud son, who was in charge of the arrangements, went with them on board the English war vessel, and re mained on board for about fifteen minutes, when he returned to the tug. At about six P. M. the Rinaldo got under way and proceeded on her voyage. In about two hours afterwards a violent gale commenced, and blew all night at Provincetown with almost the violence of a hurricane,but as the wind was off shore, proba bly the safety of the vessel was not endangered. During the stay of the Rinaldo at Provineetown no communication was allowed with the shore, nor was any boat allowed to come alongside. Our Relations with Great Britain. The 'Washington correspondent of the herald says: The delivery of the Trent prisoners on board of the British gunboat Rinaldo concludes' the Trent affair. The Rinaldo was despatched, by order of Lord Lyons, to receive them. Notwith standing the hopes entertained by the rebels that England's ultimatum, as they call it, would re quire a great deal more than the mere surrender of the prisoners, and despite the blustering menaces of the Canadian rebel sympathizing press, it is a fact that the settlement of the Trent affair, concluded b e t ween Secretary Seward and Lord Lyons, is en tirely satisfactory to for Majesty's representative in Washington, and it is believed, by those best in formed on the subject, thee it will be equally so to the British Government. Congressman Ely's Views of the War. Mr. Ely, who was recently released by the rebels at Richmond, in a late speech, at Now York, said : 01:1ITLEMEN I am persuaded that the vast army committed to the trusty bands of General MeOlellan has, too much to do. If I have learned anything in the past it is that wo fight a people tor ribl,y in earnest. Tho ory of Pahfoix at Saratoga— " War, oven to the knife "—is dill their ory.

T. D. Moors a minister of the Gospel in Birmingham, lowa. 'Mr. Moore is very fond of hunting, and is an excellent marks• man, and contrived the ride above mentioned for Ms own use in bunting sports. Soon after its com pletion, the inventor applied for a patentiand had no trouble in obtaining one immediately The rifle is intended for bunting game of alt kin* from a squirrel to a deer, tad thespealmen, whichwas the first One made, will kill with accuracy at a distance three handled yards. Its calibre is ninety-five bai's to a pound, and it has the Maynard primer atta,,,hed. The powder and balle,are put iota two tnbia, which extend from the chamber aborts one foot up the barrel, parallel with each other, and both can be filled with ammunition in a few seconds. These serve the purpose of a cartridge box, and the rifle is charged, from them by a partial revolutian of the stock, which Is quickly reversed, and the gun is ready for firing. The ball is rammed into the chamber with a sliding rammer, by the move ment of returning the stook to its place. The con , trivet:me is by no means cocoltlicatetl, and its perfect simplicity is a guarantee against its getting out of order. The manner of handling it may ,also be learned thoroughly in a few minutes. This rifle may very readily be adapted for army purposes, made of any calibre required, and would not trove moraexpenstve , than many of the fire/ arms now in use. A capacity of twenty ehargsit would bo entirely 'sufficient fan an army gun, and in the hands of a regiment in action, would render it equal to at least live regiments armed with the common musket or rifle. The Army Signal Corps The complement of officers and men constituting the army signal corps is now fully made up, A lieutenant and three privates have been detailed from the artillery of each division, and a propor tionate number from the infantry attached to each brigade from the eight divisions across the Poto mac. There have altogether been detailed one hundred and two offmere, Maj)ir Myers, formerly assistant surgeon general of the regular army, com manding: The officers' camp is- near Georgetown, where each officer has been directed to report him self to-morrow, when the course of regular instruc tion will commence. The code of signals is pro nounced perfect of its kind, and No simple that they can be readily learned, and yet so complex that the enemy cannot by any possibility interpret 'them. Once in successful operation, there will be no more shooting into our own men ; or drawing into ambuscade through display of the Union flag by the enemy. At the end of the course of instruc tion a signal officer will bo attached to the staff of each brigadier general. The Army of the-West. A correspondent of the Boston Journal, in de scribing the army of the West, says : There are two grand divisions of the army west of the Allegbanies—that commanded by General Buell, in Kentucky, awl that commanded by Ge neral Halleok, in Him:hi. There will soon be a third, commanded by General Lane, in Kansas. General Buell has all of Kentucky east of Camber land river. All west of that, including Cairo; is in General Halicok's division. General Buell's Main Army, Turning to the southwest, we see a line of rail road leading toward Nashville, Tennessee, from Louisville. Seventy-two miles. down the line is Munfordsville, on the north bank of Green river, which crinkles through the State, turning, coil. ing and recoiling upon itself in interminable curves. Hero you see the wreek,of a noble bridge, which the rebels destroyed, blowing up the massive stone piers, and precipitating the magnificent struc ture to the battem of the river. Here, too; you. can see the white tents of a hundred regiments. A thousand men aro hard at work upon the bridge, rearing a temporary structure. They have got it well along, and in a few days it will be complete. Crossing the river, and turning ten miles toward the west, we see the• Mammoth Cave. Beyond, fifteen or twenty miles, is Bowling Green, where the rebels are in strong position, it is Bald, under Johnson and Bucknor„about torty thousand of them behind entrenchments. Can they be shelled out, or flanked? Looking once more at the river, we find that it is navigable for steamboats up to Mor gantown, which, as you observe, is quite a place in Butler county. Looking straight down toward the Tennessee line from Morgantown, thirty miles dis tant, or two days march, is Russellville, the county seat of Logan, near the centre of the county. it is in rear of Bowling Green, and on the stage road leading from Morgantown to Russellville. it is on the direct course toward Nashville, which is about fifty miles further south. There aro some Federal troops near Morgantown, and at other places on Green river, which can receive transportation by steamboats, provided the river is not closed by ice. When General Buell ➢s ready for them to move, un doubtedly you will learn that Bowling Green has a fire in the rear. The rebel force at Bowling Green Is variously estimated. The rebels say one hun dred thousand, but I hear that that is bravado to blind Buell, and that the real available faros does not exceed fifty thousand. Time will tell which is the true estimate. Western Kentucky. All the territory in Kentuoky west of the Ten nessee river is in General Ileileok's division. Turn ing now our telescope to that section, we see a pe culiar configuration—the Ohio herders on the north, the Tennessee ,the east, the Mississippi the west, making WO ox bow, with the opening toward the South. Measuring along the State line be tween the Tennessee and the Mississippi, we find the distance not far from seventy-five miles. On all sides but the south there is a steamboat navi gation. The rebels have. twenty miles on the Mis sissippi, and we have all the. rest. The Tennessee is navigable for steamboats to the Muscle Shell shoals, which are in the State o f Ala bama. The river is rarely frozen for any length of time. It empties into the Ohio forty-eight miles above Cairo. At Paducah, which stands at its month, we have seven thousand men. There is a railroad. running to Union City, which you observe is just over the Kentucky line. Union City is on the Mobile and Ohio Railrevaila twenty•Svo miles from the rebel stronghold at Columbus, and about forty miles from Paducah. The rebels have torn up a good deal of the iron, and burned the bridges on the line—not the army, but resident Secessionists who sir arm in the oxbow. Let us look closely at this section of the country, for it is desirable to get the rebels out of Columbus. Let in steam up the Ten nessee river. There are no batteries on its banks. About seventy miles from Paducah, you notice that we come to the railroad which extends free Bow ling Green to Memphis. We have already seen that this line can be reached by the Cumberland river; also, that there are Federal troops not far from Hopkinsville, and. now we see that it can be directly reached by the Tennessee river. Leaving the steamboat and taking the rail road toward Memphis, which is one hundred and. fifty-seven miles distant from the Tennessee river at this point, we find at the town of Humboldt, only seventy-five miles distant, a railroad leading from Memphis to Columbus. What if a strong Federal force should get possession of Ilumboldt? • The rebels would find it difficult to hold Columbus. True, they would have the Mississippi, but Com mender Foot, with his gunboats, may have some thing to say upon that part of the question. Ido not present this as having any reference whatever to any contemplated movement In the future, bat merely to show that, although the rebels have strong positions at Bowling Green and Columbus, Nature has given geographical features—water ways, admitting of transportation—by which both of those positions can be turned. The only thing to be feared is an ice blockade. Aside from the rivers, we have rail communication.- A Napoleonic genius would Bee no &amities worth naming in turning the flanks of the rebels at Columbus and Bowling Breen, or rather of breaking through the lines and threatening Memphis and Nashville. Let our eominandens—McClellan on the Potomao,Buell on the Ohio, and Balleck on the Mississippi—re view the military strategy of General Wolfe ; let them remember how he searched every nook and corner, every ravine, every crevice, every standing place along the precipices of the St. Lawrence, to find a way of remitting the heights above, whore Quebec was held by Montealm; let them call to mind his determination to gain a position and force the enemy to fight; lot thorn remember his glorious success, and improve the opportunities to crush re bellion, and make for themselves a name forever to be honored by their fallow-men. General Kelley. The Wheeling (Va.) Intelligence,- says : Para graphs have been going around the newspaper cir cles for some days, that Gen. Kelley had been superseded in command at Romney, liy Gen. Rey nolds, without assigning any reason for it. It is true that the change in command has taken plaoo, or will probably in a few days; but Gen. Kelley has not been superseded. lie has been relieved at his own request. The continued ill health and suffering experienced by Gen. Kelley ever since he resumed command on sufficiently recovering from his wound received at Phillippi to do so, would have deterred aloes zealous and ardent patriot from again attempting the performance of field duty. Latterly the old wound has grown so much worse as to disqualify him for all restive duty and confine him to his bed, and be bas indeed been too feeble to assume the cares of command at so important a post as that assigned him. Under these circumstances, Gen. Kelley has deemed it proper, as it eminently was, to ask to be relieved from a position whose duties . physical de bility disqualified him from performing. Ile has accordingly been relieved, and Gen. Reynolds trans• ferred to his place. Gen. Kelley withdraws from his command loved and honored by all who know him. We hope he may be spared to live in better times, and to wit ness happier scenes than those he has passed through within tho last nine months. Gen. Dlcelellan''snealth The Washington Repafloors of yesterday nays: We are happy to 'state, on the authority of Dr. Verdi, the attending physician of Gen. McClellan, that the General is convalescent and doing well, and that there has never been any cause for serious apprehension in his case. We saw Dr. Verdi at coven o'clock last evening. He stated to us at the earn° time, that Gen. Marcy was quite well, not confined to his bed, and would have been out yes terday, if the weather bad been pleasant. A.
