FROM MOYA,MENSING PRISON TO FORT LAFAYETTE. War hag its bright sides, and the brightest of all le afforded in the clemency which a generous victor allots to an humbled adversary- We, who have been bumbled mere then enee, know the bitterness of defeat, and the crape that was hung upon our shutters, after the slaughter of Ball's Bluff, should Lave taught us charity for the - losses of less loyal seen and women. Some hundreds of our gallant men are languishing in Southern prisons; some hun• dreds of our adversaries regret and suffer in our own ; and if these could dictate the policy of their sespective Governments this civil struggle would dose its most barbarous characteristics. Whatever lave been the motives of the leaders of this rebel, lion, we may at least accord spirited impulses to many of their followers. Those who have been confined for the pant six :months in our county prison have not been, as a rule, dissolute or reckless. If patient submission to the evil fortunes of war, sincere regret, in some •cases, for what was done either rashly or from ne cessity, and in others a faith that captivity could not weary in the legitimacy of the insurrection and its ultimate success; if these be good indications, theseprivateers or " pirates" are not without ele- Monts of manliness. Four of them were virtually under sentence of death ; many had passed the or .deals of sickness, and all were the recipients of prison fare and prison treatment. They were sub jected to fatiguing court trials, irritated by the po pulace and by the newspapers, and have at last gone, from among us, to be quartered 14; a bleak and isolated fortress, out of the reach of ordinary kindnesses and almost out of the reach of human .sympathy—a thousand miles from home. Surely these are requitals severe enough for the most vindictive patriotism. And it was in order to .Speak with these transgressor:4—u fiends" as they have been called, and felons as they have been treated—that we accompanied the crews of the privateer-vessels Petrel and Jeff Davis to Fort loilayette on Wednesday. The lathe of the vessels Earned -are sad examples of the perverse fortunes of the rebellion. The frff .Davis sailed from Charleston in June, captured a len , trifling prizes, moat of which were retaken by Federal vessels, and was herself finally cast away off the Georgia coast, Six of her crew were placed at one time upon the seized shallop Enchantress, and, being betrayed by their pilot, fell in the path Of the Federal gunboat Albatross, and were put in irons. After a long • incarceration, they were brought to trial in this city, and four of them con eted of piracy. The P ^rel sailed in July, was chased eight hours ivy the big frigate St. Lawrence, and finally, in the gamest and sauciest manner, turned upon her pur suer, hoisted the rebel flag, and fired a ronndshot by way of defiance. A single ball from the St. Lawrence sunk the privateer; two of her crew were drowned, and the rest picked up afloat and put in irons. The crews of both vessels, some forty in number, have been lying in prison since July, tinder care of United States Marshal Millward. Their board has been provided at an expense of three dollars MA weak par Sikh, siid certahl la dies of the city hive given them clothing and ne cessaries. On Monday last, by their own consent, they were handed from the civil to the military .suthorities, and on Wednesday were placed in two prison vans and driven to the Kensington depot. The deputy marshals, John Jenkins and John F, Sharkey, with a few assistants, had them trans• ferred to a special car in the rear of the train, and the doors were forthwith bolted in order both to pro tect and to secure them. No harsh measures wars vmployeti, the prisoners co-operating with the offiz rers, and obeying promptly and respectfully. Some of them rode on the steps of the city <vans, and some on the top. On the way to :Kew York they were allowed to stand unguarded upon the platforms, handcuffs, e'o., being wisely dispensed with. Soon after leaving Kensington, they proceeded, in moderation, to - liquor up" —a 'favorite Southern amusement, but not sectional, we believe. This was effected according to known maritime principles, each canteen or bottle going the whole length of the ear, being first presented to the officers_ Bread and cheese sums nett in the course, and, all parties having dined, we proceeded make conversation the dessert. lhis was at first a matter of sothe difficulty, as n man with a large plantation hat, who spat the whole length of the ear, and talked in the key of a rural auctioneer, insisted upon singing .—e Bold Privateer." The chorus was lustily roared by half the party. Some exhibitions of wit fol lowed, characteristic, but not good, ainA then a South, named Bryan, unrolled a gaudily-colored drawing of the Petrel, with a Confederate flag at the masthead. The same lad exhibited a series 40f sketches, indicating considerable natural ability, and mere chastity of pencil than of fancy. It SY - 83 plain to see that the officers were not of a kind with the men. Of these, the most remarkable was Richard M. Harvey, of North Carolina, the first lieutenant. and formerly a midshipman in the Federal navy. Heis tt etout, powerful men; square shouldered, and six feet in height, weighing up wards of two hundred pounds. In face he is not less impressive. A consciousness of power and command shines from his gray eyes—that glance prompt and fitfully—and he has large jaws that temper the do -040 lorelleoluel 4qt of his eyes !IA forehead with sufficient of the animal. He speaks with a crisp, quick voice, and a quantity of gray hair gives him an elderly appearance. Harvey is a North Carolinian, and was a Unionist until the coer cion policy of the President was announced. He at once engaged with William Perry, the captain of the Petrel, and the two chartered a vessel and Shipped a crew. Perry was formerly in the U. S. navy. Ile is an infirm, weather-beaten salt, full of waning fire, and was, just before the war, a naval pensioner. Re stated to us that he had fallen off seventy pounds since his incarceration. Us de ems to go home to North Carolina, and, if possible, cross the seas to live out his days Tle believes that the south will he crushed before another year, and is disconsolate in view of the evils that await his section and people. He was barely able to keep Lis feet, and bad to be assisted in disembarking at - the fort. Harvey, on the contrary, will go into - the Southern army when released, and share the fortunes of Nvrth Carolina. Ho has passed Lie leisure here in studying the relative strength .of the two sections, and goes away with full intelligence of matters in the North, and particularly in Philadelphia. Ile had - never been so far northward as New York, and was much oppressed by the cold weather on the bay. August Peyrussett, the gunner of the Petrel, is a Frenchman—dark, crafty, and cowardly. Ile sat during the whole trip, with folded arms, buried in the contemplation of his own dark nature. During the engagement with the St. L 2 wrenee, Pay russett deserted the gun, and fled in terror to the cabin, whence Harvey dragged him by the throat. The men detest Peyrussett, and he has made him self very obnoxious to the marshals and officers of the court. William Smith, piizemaster of the Jdf Davis, is of good family, but is an unrelenting iSecessionist, and thoroughly reckless of life. His evil passions have contorted his features so that he would make, without farther embellishment, a creditable bona, fide pirate. Col. Corcoran is now held pt Charleston as a hostage for Smith. The latter is small, lithe, and uncleanly; in last, a Southern scion " gone to seed." The men. as a rule, are rough seamen, chiefly Irishmen, who took to privateering from necessity or adventure. They know little of State matters, but think that this war is a "nigger " measure and go with the current. Had they been in New York. in April. they would have been the first to enlist ii the Sixty-ninth Regiment. Two of the men were Charleston pilots, moderately intelligent, but radical Southerners. Thomas Quigley, pro- fessedly a Unionist, will doubtless be discharged by the Government. - Hu claims to have steered the -Ent-1,0.7, 1 / 2 ,s northward With a view to her recap ture. Fifteen. at least, and perhaps twenty of the men, would take the oath of allegiance, and remain in the North. One of these is Charles H. Marriott, 9011 of a Union legislator of Maryland, and heir, since incarceration, to considerable property. He led a roving . career in the West and South, and shipped while inebriated upon the Petrel. Edward Rock ford, sentenced to death, lea white-livered, nervous Englishman, who feels that he has made a mistake, and wants to be instructed as to what he shall do. The men, as a]rule, are kindly-disposed savages, who have nothing to lose of character or property, and are ready for any desperate scheme that may be unfolded. The distinctive Southerners are the bitterest of all, and &spud to die in the Southern Brmy, We reached Jersey City at one o'clock and were put on board a tug, under charge of ex.biarshal Lewis De Angeli and . dward Currey, Esq., of Wow York. The bay was full of ice ; the day was raw : the tug was small, and had a cabin that was . fdled with bread and cheese. A choice bottle, 'Without a label: reposed in a coiner, and the tug put on steam directly. Captain Perry squeezed himself into the cabin, and a sick privateer whose bat might have made an awning, chattered and suffered beside him. The rest of the crew huddled at the stern, and looked across the dr:fting ice upon the great city of New York, with its beautiful har bor crowded withforts and shipping. So, perhaps, did Corcoran look upon Charleston, and, gazing Lis out at sea, imagine its waters as deep, as lonesome, and as agitated as his thoughts. These outcasts bad no home : they looked like embodied solitudes. Between dancing, swearing, and drinking, they reached Fort Lafayette at three o'clock—that looked like a red-stone barn propped up in the twiddle of a river. Its chimneys were lonesome; its walls were bleak ; it stood against the sky like the Spectre of the Brocken ; and the waters 'and drift ice dashed against. its base with a hollow clash. Fort Hamilton, on the Long Island share. looked at us ever so sleepily through a row of goggle port-holes, and Fort Tompkins, across the way, was quite stone-blind. The garrison of 'Fort Lafayette sauntered down to a rotten land ing, and a lieutenant put out from Fort Hamilton in a long-boat, and stood in the bow fold ed in his blue cloak. In a few minutes a plank was stretched out; the prisoners of war were hurried on shore, and huddled together, two and two, under the guidance of the sergeants. And without music or cheer, in silence and sadly, the pirates strode over the snow, and disappeared within the portal of the Bastile. We were allowed to peer in at the entrance upon courtyard full of slush ; a gallery hung with irty tntn ;, a group of slovenly regulars, and row of prisoners that stared out of the ca.sounite windows. The marshal took their receipt; the whistle of the tug blew, and, with a feeling of ra id; we pawed out of sight of Fort Lafayette, to • orget it in the more cheerful convivialities of Now 'o; k.

Proceedings of City Councils. Both branches of Councils held their stated meetings yesterday afterneen. • SELECT BRANCH, Theodore Cuyler, president, in the chair. Chamber called to order at a quarter before four o'clock. A petition was received from the agent of the Boudinot estate, asking to be excused from the payment of con necting water undue. From the Moyamensing Hose and Fairmount Hose Companies, asking to be located as steam fire engine companies. From Norcross& Sbeetz, asking a reduction of therent of Green-street wharf.

The special committee to whom was referred the bill for cleansing the streets and creatieg a new department for that purpose, reported it back with certain amend ments. The Chamber went into a Committee of the Whole for the purpose of - considering the bill which has already been published in The Press. The " Depart ment for cleansing the streets" is to be under the charge of a superintendent, at a salary of $1,200 per annum, a clerk at $6OO, and a messenger at 8406 ; also 120 men nt $3OO each per annum. The superintendent is to be elected by Select and Common Councils In join! convention. WETIIERILL thought the bill imperfect, and pre sented an amendment which pla_es the department under the charge of a commissioner, whose duties it shall be to visit alt the streets and see that they aro properly cleansed. Ile shall issue proposals for carts, and have the power to employ the necessary number of men, not exceeding 160. He shall be furnished with an office by the city, and have his books , properly kept i the office to be kept open from 0 A. M. to I P. H. for the transactor' of business. He shall have power to appoint superin tendent', who shall keep an account of the amount of labor performed and the men employed. The city shall be divided into four districts, each of which shall have a superintendent to see that all work is properly done. Each superintendent shall give security in the sum of $2,000, and the commissioner in the sum of $lO,OOO. The latter will be required to make a weekly report to the Committee of Councils of the money expended, labor per formed, &c. Mr. WETEERILL said, in the first bill there was no so entity required for the faithful performance of duty, which was an entire oversight. He did not think it was sight to elect a man at $1,200 per annum, to superintend this department, and not ieenire security of hint_ What we'leant is the removal of dirt, ashes and snow, and it, can only be done by men and carte , of " which nothing is said in the original bill respecting the latter. The antics of those employed should also be specified, which he thought was entirely neglected in the bill. He had it from the Mayor himself, that it would be impossible to cleanse the streets of the city with lees than from Ho to 200 men, and 100 carts. Ench superintendent will watch the workings of his own district, and report the same to the commissioner. If they do not attend to their duties, they will not only be discharged but their security for feited. In case the commissioner himself neglects his duty, the ordinance requires the "Committee on Cleans ing" to bring before Councils a resolution asking for his txpulsion. Mr. CUTLER thought that no one> was perfectly competent t, prepare a bill for cleansing the street., notwithstanding all past experience. He was in favor of the original bill, which would establish a skeleton de partment, and might be filled in as experience dictates. Mr. WETRERILL said he would never, as long as he ht Id a seat in this Chamber ' allow any department to flame an ordinance for him. Be was opposed to getting 11 le information from an employee. He was sure the bill, as prepared by the committee, would prove a com plete failure, and the Mayor would so give his opinion. Mr. CUTLER said it was stated to him that the Mayor made no objections to the bill, as reported, except the put which gave it a police feature. [A portion of the original bill made the scavengers liable to police duty subjected to the orders of the Mayor and the Chief.-- Reporter.l Be hal no idea of a head of department pre paring an ordinance for this ruling of these Councils. Mr. Inclimait said there Wee only One thing that would secure a perfect cleansing of our streets, and that was to make it to the interests of those who cleanse them. Ile said the opposition before they came into power spoke lcudly of reforms, and this—the creation of a skeleton department—was one of their first attempts. He was well aware that if ths bill mod it would prove aipea sive and a burden to the city ; but the blame would rest only upon those who pushed the bill through. The bill bad no intimation whatever of a reduction of offices in the Highway Department, but was for an increase in a new department. Mr. MCMCKIN moved that the committee rise, and ask lease to sit again, as the time for the election of heads of cerartreents had arrived_ The motion was agreed to. Mr. Magrna said he would vote against meeting the other tinunber in Convention for the purpose of electing the heads of departments, as he intended to ascertain whether two of these departments—that of City Property ens Markets—could not be consolidated. They had re ceived no notice of this election, and had not yet time to inquire into the expediency of reducing the number of &pia- ineble. It required a two-third vote, and he would vote against it. The vote was finally taken on suspending the rules, and was agreed to by 20 eas to 3 nays. The Chamber then proceeded into the other branch, for the purpose of electing the heads of departments. [See Common Council report.] Upon reassembling, the consideration of the bill for cleansing the streets was resumed. hie s Alausev took the floor. Ile thought the present mode of cleansing the streets required a radical and sweeping change. He hoped the original bill would pass, as it would rid onr highways of filth and pools of stagnant water. He could see no valid opposition to the bill pre sented, and strongly urged its passage. Mr_ DAVIS, chairman of the committee, who reported the bill. said he had signed it in order that it might be brought before the Chamber. lie had some objections to it, however. Mr. IxonAn saw numerous objections in both bills, neither of which he considered perfect. The amendment, as offered by Mr. Wetherill, was finally voted down. The sections of the bill, as reported, were then bead anti adopted. The Committee of the Whole then arose, and the bill was reported to the Chamber. Mr. WETHERILL HOW moved that his amendment be subetituted for the till, which was lost by a vote of 12 na3 b to 5 yeas. Mr. WETIIERILL raked that his amendment be printed in the Journal, which was agrecd _ IDr. INGIS3I moved to postpone the bill for one week, in order that it might go before the public previous to Ito passage. This was Snally withdrawn, and the bill passed.. Mr. Fox presented a resolution to place two addi tional lamps on Fifth street, in the Twelfth ward. Be ferrtd. Mr. Wuxi's:um. presented an ordinance relative to connecting water mains, which was referred. Mr. WETHEMIL also offered an ordinance making it unlawful to lay water pipe or pave any street unless it has been regularly opened by the city. The ordinance was agreed to. Mr. WIITIIERILL offered a preamble and resolution calling on the Congress of the United States to make the nr cissary appropriation for the defence 'of the city of Philadelphia. agreed to. The bill from Common Council relative to the purchase of sweeping machines was indefinitely - postponed. The hill continuing the interest on outstanding war rauts was concurred in ; also§ the billregulating the nay meet of market rents. The ordinance for effecting the inenrance on bridges for 1862 was concurred in ; also, the resolution authorizing the laying of a railway track arross Delaware avenue. The resolution from Common Council instructing the Mayor to otter a reword for the detection of those who fotwardcd certain forged returns at the last election was agreed to, and the Chamber adjourned. COMMON COUNCIL The Chamber assembled at the usual hour, and was called to order by the chairman, air. KERR. Petitions were received from the Franklin Engine Com pany, of Frankford, Western Hose Company, and Moya mensing Hose Company, asking to be located as steam tire-engine companies. The chairman of the Finance Committee submitted a report, accompanied by ordinances making the following appropriations for 1862:.

The Finance Committee also reported a resolution, en titled ••An ordinance continuing the interest on outstand ing warrants until May, MI" The ordinance Wad agreed to Mr. SITES, from the Committee on Highways, reported. an ordinance malting an appropriation toy pay the insu rance upon the city bridges; also appropriating the stun of 83,000 fur the removal of ashes. Mr. Quinn opposed the ordinance at length. Ho de sired to know whether any gentleman in the chamber GOlllll atterTi that the polies had been taken front his own door during the past month '1 lie was opposed to this .93,000 a mouth scheme, when there was no effort to re move the ashes being made. Dr. Eames stated that, as far as he was personalty con cerned, the passage or defeat of the ordinance was of lit tie consequence to him. Re could not be surprised at the geutitniau'e (Mr. Quinn's) opposition to the measure. Ile had voted in the negative in every case except one, whoa the subject was brought before the committee. Xt. QUINN replied that he did not oppose the removal of the ashes. But be did oppose the appropriation of money when he was certain that it would not secure the abatement of the nuisance. If this sum was appropri ab d, we would have pont ug to expect but its total ex- Ptioliturer briug the present otainiimiouvem teen or twin. 31r. HARPER thought that every propertyownor and housekeeper should be compelled to remove his own ashes. We all - know that during the past month the ashes have not been rent's - col. As long as the Highway. Deem tment is counselled by law to cart away the ashes, it should ask for an amount, sufficient to do the work. FRISEUN thought the Highway Department, in asking this appropriation, should make some report to Councils of the number of carts employed by it, the quan tity of ashes removed, the districts thus favored, &c. Dlr. Sans again defended the ordinance. the larger portion of the appropriation tfosild be spent by the in coming Commissioner of Highways. Dlr. QUINN.

I do not know, sir; but I know that I am not willing to accuse any man of rascality until I have some sufficient reason therefor 1 Mr. QUINN moved that the section providing 63,000 for removing ashes be stricken out. Agreed to. The title of the ordinance wee then, on motion of Mr FREEMAN, clanged so its to road...it An erdinaneemaking all appropriation to the Department of Highways to pay the imurance on bridges." It was then passed. The Comm'ttee on Highways reported a resolution au. thoriv.ing Messrs. Malone and Taylor to lay a railroad track across Delaware avenue. Mr. Qv INN offered an amendment that the city may at any time remove the track at the expenee of the appli mtg. The resolution, as amended, was agreed to.

THE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD'S CANAL.— There has been great anxiety manifested by the people reekling near the Pennaybrania Railroad's canal, be tween Huntingdon and Hollidaysburg, to know what course the company would take in regard to it—whether they would repair or abandon it. 'Recently, incessant inquiries have been made as to what would be done, and, to put the matter at rest, Thos. E. 'Merman, Esq.. answered all these inquiries by ad dressing the following letter to lion. L W. Hall, who has Men taking much interest in bringing the subject to the attention of the company: CANAL ThWARTAINNT, PieNN'A. R. IL CO., llAmu:myna, Jan. 20,.1882. L.

No boating of any consequence can be done on that portion of the canal next season. All new structures will be built in view of an enlarged *anal. Any now locksthat may be built will have cham bers seventeen feet wide, and the new aqueduct will be ceriOSPoridingly enlarged, Tho shallow places in the canal will be bottomed out, which will materially improve the navigation.

THE BULLET-PROOF Vzsr.—The recently in vented buret-proof vest continues to attract the atten tion of military men, and we learn that a trial or it 4 misting powers will be made at the State Arsenal, Harris burg, in a few days, where it will be fully tested before the heads of departments and members of the Legislature. In appearance it is precisely the same as the regular military:vest, but between the cloth and lining there are fitted two , plates of light cast-steel, with the edges lap plug in the mitre, and to fachioned As to perfectly fit the body, and so thoroughly and peculiarly tempsred as to make them very strong in proportion to their weight. It is supported from the shoulders of the wearer by adjusta ble steel springs, which, though very light, are sufficient to resist th e blow of the heaviest sabre. This vest is simple, light, and effective, and for many reasons is be lieved to be a great improvement on the heavy breast and back Pima used in all the armies of Europe.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. THE MONEY MARKET. - PHILADELPHIA, Fobruary 6. 1862. At the Stock Board to-day littler business was trans acted, the market being dull, uuder the .suspense felt in relation to the law for the issue of an additional hundred millions of demand notes. Pennsylvania Railroad shares were firm at 43X. Philadelphia and Erie sixes sold up to S 4, and Reading Railroad eliares opened at 204, and were dull at the close at 20. The money market is very quiet, irml without change of rates. City warrants are bought by the Third-street brokers at five per cent. dis count from the face of the warrant, allowing nothing far accrued interest, unleee the warrant has been a long time 'oohing_ Tbe New York Times of to-day says that nearly all the banks in that city are endeavoring to accommodate their dealers in reference to United States notes, in the expectation that Congress will, in a few days, determine the policy of the Treasury. The exceptions to this mu tual spirit of good will toward the Federal currency are Apt bilfficientlY ilnPol tent S 9 create 9frl4arroommt hi the sweet, though the malcontents are yet apparently sufficient in number to defeat any action in the Clearing Nouse in favor of clearing these notes in part settlement of the balances between the banks. It is explained to UN that the reason why an inconsiderable mi ne: ity may negative any such arrangement is that the medium of these daily settlements must be unani mously concurred it. If this be so. the only re course let t to the majority is to publicly declare their readiness to accept United States none to the extent of at least one-half the debtor balances at the Clearing- How , and to publish the names of the few intractable banks objecting to the measure. The business commu nity would then understand where and with whom the difficulty originates, and we much mistake the spirit now abroad in favor of maintaining the public credit, and giving the treasury paper a free currency in all nurcan tile and banking transactions, if the dissenting banks are suffered to enjoy any decided advantage fruit separating from their more enlightened and liberal neighbors. The Commercial _Advertiser, on the same subject, says: Whatever the objections to the measure, it is evident that the currency of the country, for some time to come, must be mainly furnished by these dettatnd notes, and the sooner the banks accommodate their business or rangemetits to that fact ; the better it will he for all parties: They, as well as others, must take things as they are, and not as they could wish them to be, and their own in terests, as well as the welfare of the public, demand that they should contribute all in their power to sustain the credit of that Government the securities of which repre sent enlarge a portion of the bank capital of New York. flow important a bearing a policy which will make the promisee to pay of that Government pass currently from Laud to hand will have upon lie credit it it scarcely ne cessary to enlarge upon. The city banks would also do well to remember that if the Government notes are at present irredeemable, bank notes are now virtually iu the same condition, and that a refusal to receive the one as currency, may not only pro yoke ultelior measures to enforce the redemption of the other, but may lead to the demand that all bank obliga tions shall be met in the only medium which the law re cognizes as money. We say this in no spirit of unkind ness, but from a knowledge of public sentiment on the subject, and a belief that If the question is to be nor-rc,n ed down to a contest between the banks and the Go yerpmept, the former must go to the wall.

The New York Evening Post of to-day says: The clock market is weak and lower to-day. The im provement of MA evening is mere than lost on most de scriptions, especially Erie, which closes heavy at 33,V, atter selling largely yesterday at 34¢34M. It is sup posed that some English stock arrived by the steamer, which partially accounts for the decline of Nei Per cent. he reading of the details of the foreign news produces some uneasiness, though this would be quite forgotten if Congress were ready to adopt some measure of financial relief. The market closes very dull, pending the action of the Ilona, on the treasury-note bill. The money market is without special change. There is a full demand at 6 per cent., and we hear of exceptional ansiictions at ea per cent. Philadelphia Stock Exchange Sales, February 6. 1862. RuPoargn BY S. E. SLAYMA KKR. Philadelphia Exchange.
