GENERAL HALLECK'S DEPARTMENT. Important from the West. Sr. Lours, Feb. 19.—General HaHeck has re ceived despatches from Fort Doneloon, stating that one thousand more rebel prisoners have been taken. They came down the river to reinforce the fort, not knowing that it had surrendered, and were bogged by our troops. Professor Swallow, the State Geologist, was arrested last night, and committed to the military prison on a charge of disloyalty. The name's of the rebel officers captured at War saw, Mo., on Saturday Seal, were bacon** re ported from Sedalia. They are Brigadier Gene ral Price, COl. Dorsey, Col. Cross, and Captain Inge, all members of Major General Price's staff. Sr. Lours, Feb. 19.—A Cairo despatch to -the Republican says : The Wed advises from Fort Donolson report that the gun-boat St. Louis, Captain Paulding, proceeded up the Cumberland river to Clarksville, and found the enemy abandoning that place in a vatic. Two large flat•boate; laden with munitions of war, were captured at Rolling Mill, just below Clarks ville. Everything was being moved to Nashville, ea fast as possible, where the next rebel stand would be made. Everything at Fort Doneloon was progressing satisfactorily. Our army are encamped in the cap tured works; living‘oomfortably in the log huts and tents of the rebels. The soldiers are very enthusiastic, and anxious to march against Nashville. With the exception of severe colds, consequent upon the recent exposure, the army was well. The actual number of prisoners takenwas thirteen thousand three hundred, and among them General West, who 'has not been previously mentioned,_ Tribute to the BetVir-PSI of-Chell minter Sr. Louis, Feb. 20.—The following depatch was sent from headquarters yesterday : " HEADQUARTERS, DEPT OF HISSOUR/, ST- Lours, Feb. 19. To Kum GENERAL D_ HUNTER, Commanding the Department of Ramos, at Port Leavenworth. "To you, more than to any other man out of this department, are we indebted for our success at Fort Donelson. In my strait for troops, I appealed to you. You responded nobly, placing your forces at my disposal. This enabled tia to Win the victory. Deceive my most heartfelt thanks. " H. W. HALLECK, Major General." Good News from Alabama Sr. Lours, Feb. 19.—A Union scout, who has been operating up the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers, reached here this morning, and reports that sue span of the Memphis and Charleston Railroad bridge, crossing the Tennessee river at Decatur, Alabama, was destroyed by the Union men in that -vicinity on Saturday last. It was reported that the bridge at Bridgeport, some seventy miles above, was also disabled, but this is not confirmed. Decatur is in Morgan county, Alabama, on the south side of Tennessee river. The Memphis and Charleston Railroad passes throngh it, and there is also a railroad to Nashville. Discoveries at Fort Henry. A correspondent of the St. Louis Republican, writing from Fort Henry, says: Eaeh day new objects of interest are disoovered, and every soldier is speedily supplied with some relic, though it be nothing more than an oyster can. Where the big rifled gun burst, the noise as of a dozen anvils being smitten is constantly heard. Looking for the cause, a half-dozen soldiers may be seen hammering away, with crowbars or axes, at the fragments of the huge piece, scattered around, to obtain a relic. Although this scene has been repeated now for three daylo, not , a particle of the coveted article has been obtained, the metal stubbornly . resisting every attack. Other objects, of more significant interest, begin now to claim attention. They are the daily discovery of pits and graves, where human bodies, during the battle, were hastily thrown. This con cc#.lll/91.21 of dyad, by nuking them in ponds and then throwing on bags of dirt, or snoop ing out shallow graves, is a barbarous practice, and a noticeable evidence of the deceit a sinking cause needs to practice. One pond has been already made to give up its dead, and twenty mangled bodies drawn forth. Just outside the walls of the fort was noticed a large number of bags of dirt cast into a slough, and spades thrown down where workmen had been hastily employed. On removing these, the hidden bodies were found. Thirty barrels of whisky were; discovered this morning buried a short distance in the woods, and what more the earth around here eonceals may yet be entombed also. Several of the cannon in Fort Henry are stamped 1821, and others bear the mark of the makers in Memphis. In the middle of the ford& elation are several graves, with a fence around, made by weaving poles together. Death of a Gallant Meer. The Chicago Tribune says : Theodore Peyre Ferry, third master of the gun boat Essex, has died from injuries received at the bombardment of Fort Henry. Mr, Ferry is of French descent, his father and uncle both having been officers in the army under Napoleon. He has been in service, in various capacities, in the United States navy, for nearly fourteen years. He planted the first American flag upon the coast of Japan, and has seen much service in California and Wash ington Territory. He was s man of undoubted bravery, and Commander W. D. Porter says, " that by his death be has lost one of his best offi cers "—a tribute worthy both to the noble man who gave it, and to him who fell defending the country he loved.

The Situation in Kentucky, The Cincinnati Times of Tuesday evening says: " When General Buell moves, it twill be like lightning," remarked a gentleman in• high position in that department, less than two weeks ago. The prophecy . has been already fulfilled. The long in activity in the department of the Ohio hes proved masterly. Within the last %few dart,- stroke has followed stroke so rapidly and so effectually, that to-day Kentucky soil is almost rid of the !Thal army. Slowly, but surely, Gen. Buell organized' his army for the speedy work. Thorough exami nation was made into the fitness of both officers and men. Many of the former have been moyod, and to-day B,ooti weak and disabled soldiers from Gen. Buell's army are home on furlough. has se cured thorough organization, and relieved that por tion of his army designed for active service of use lees "lumber." Now as to his strategy_ lie first secured Eastern and Central Kentucky from invasion. The force under Garfield, near the State line, protects East ern Kentucky. Thomas' victorious division,' with its front near East Tennessee, is ready for any force that can be brought against it; nay, for an advance, the moment the roads are passable. Three of Bu ell's peat diViSiella lay nearly three months on Green liver, threatening Bowling Green. The rebels, knowing their inability to defend their posllion against that force, prepared to evacuate. ,Thebri gades of Floyd and Buckner were withdrawn and sent to the assistance of Fort Donelson;Ahreatened by water. Immediately Gen. Mitchell's -division is forwarded, by forced marches, to Bowling Green. The distance is rapidly made, and, the foe flying before him, Gen. Mitchell takes possession of Bowl ing Green without the firing of a gun: In the meantime Fort Donelson is invested by Ralleck's forces. With its fall the way is clear to Nashville by water, and it is easierliarispertieg troops and provisions by water than over bad turn pikes and wreaked railroads. SiiddenlY Buell is in motion. MoCook's division, heretofore the ad vance on the Louisville and Nashville railroad, re ceives sudden orders to retrace their, steps. In two days the division marched upward of 'fifty miles, and was embarked on board of steamboats at the mouth of Salt River ; the forces at the Bards town Camp of Instruction, and other., brigades, march as rapidly to Louisville and take. steamers ; the new regiments ordered into the field take boats at Cincinnati, Louisville, and other points, and General Buell is off for Cumberland River, with a fleet conveying from 40,000.t0 50,000 men! Now that Donelson has falleß, he will *abed at once with this fresh force to I'fashvple, and plant his headquarters in the heart of Tennessee; While reeking this movement, his advanced line in Kentucky is well protected. Mitchell, at Bowl ing Green, can maintain himself ; but should hobo attached by su perior _ numbers, Nelson's is at his elbow. Thomas' force is not diminished, 'and Garfield has been reinforced. We look with confi dence to the speedy occupancy of Nashville by Buell, and that done, Thomas and Mitchell will both immediately advance, without aerie& resist ance, to the new line, and the rebels will. be corn relied, necessarily, to fall back from llolumbas. This accomplished, the war in Kentucky will be at an end, and our noble sister State will be com pletely disenthralled. How the Late Glorious News was re ceived in the Kentucky Capital. The Frankfort (Ky,) correspondent of the Gin einnati Gazette gives the following description of the scene In the capital of Kentucky, 'when the news of the occupation of Bowling Green and YOrt Don elson was announced : The Occupation of Bowling Green. To•day, about half past eleven o'cleek A, John W. Lionel, Adjutant General, received a de spatch from Colonel Samuel Gill, stating that Gene ral Mitchell was on the banks of the Big Barren river, close to Bowling Green ; that the rebels evacuated that place on his approach, taking with them the blessings of General Mitchell, in the shape of a few shells, etc. The first in timation the Senate had of the good news came from Mr. Speaker Fisk. The despatch had been banded to him. With that shy manner and imperturbable face which so eminently belongs to that gentleman, he informed the Senate that he had received a despatch, which, though not exactly germaine to the polziect under discussion, with the permission of the Senate he would read. The pro foundest silence pervaded the Senate chamber and lobby while the speaker read the despatch. Then, in a moment, a tumultuous cheer broke out in the lobby, and was continued throughout the Senate chamber. The Speaker, in the t meantime pre. • served the moat stolid gravity. Not a ennlo - nor frown ruffled the surface of his marble features. Ile did not call the Senate to order, but that body immediately .recollected what it was, and where it was, and business 'Wits resumed with the usual decorum. The joyful news soon fennd its way into the House of Representatives. One member moved an ad journment. " Oh, no ! no !" was the response from all sides, when the mover said he had just heard that General Mitchell bad possesn'on of Bowling Green, whereupon the House adjimnied instanter, and a• prolonged and heart-felt char resounded through the hen. - after the adjournment of the Legislature the town was, to say the least, lively. Bumper; upon buniper of " pare old Bourbon ";was swallowed to the toast, "Eras to Sheneral Mishel an 'is "bray and gallon tarmy.' ' In the midst of these festivities a despatch was received announcing that Port DoneLsou had ear rendered. The scene that took place then beggars description. The voices of the Union citizens Of the town and those of the Legislature intermingled in one continuous cheer. Even the Union ladies assembled at the Capitol Hotel, the headquarters, and with beaming Countenances end waving hand kerchiefs, expressed their joy. gclfore's to 'Abram ham Link-horn,' God bless him, " came from scores of stentorian lungs, owned by the most ultra pro slavery men. Another toast: "Jeff Davis and hell, inseparable in life, in death may they not be di vided." " Up, my honest ole Dap°, God bless your rail-splitting son]," came. from another quarter: " Deolee for Edwil M. Stands," could occasionally be heard through the general din: One hundred and fifty guns were fired in front of the State Ar senal. Music paraded the streets and patriotic speeches were made suitable for the occasion. In the meantime night came on apace, and the sulky and sullen &meth began to emerge teem their • holes, looking as mean as Secession really is. One by one they dropped into Powell's saloon, "their headquarters," and, after imbibing sundry times, commenced feeling better. They did not believe the news ; it was "a d—d Lincoln," he. After a little they commenced shouting for Jeff Davis. While engaged in this pastime two Union members of the Legislature, both disciples of Hippocrates, happened to drop into Powell's. They could not „stand these Jeff Davis shouts. One of them, as suming command, formed his comrade in line of battle, drew a fifteen-inch bowie, and thus addressed the crowd : "Attention, rebels' Jeff Davis is played eat, and must not be cheered or toasted in these United States. Hell is the proper p.ace for him to be toasted in. About face, file right (pointing to the door), double quick, forward march." A few pistols were heard to click, but not a shot was fired. The Seceah embraced the bettor part of valor—discretion—and evacuated, leaving our M. D.'s master of the field. The Rebel Officers Surprised at the Re turn of Zollicoffer's Body. The Louisville Journal says The Federal officers recently exchanged at bash villa unite hi declaring +kat a. moat Eutlntary preasion was produced on the rebels by General Buell's voluntary and courteous return of the body of Gen. Zollicofter. The act was not expected by the rebels. Nay, they did not expect that the body of the dead General would be returned even upon their request, and the flag of , truce covering the rquest, we are assured, was borne toward our Ikea In the persuasion that the errand would prve a vain one. Having discharged from their own minds the amenities of civilized warfare, and schooled themselves to believe that we had done likewise. they, not unnaturally, looked for nothing but a &old and coarse refusal. • When, however, they found that their request not onl7 . wan not re fused, but had been generously antunpated, they suddenly opened the ir eyes to the feet, patent al ways to the whole world beside, that the chiefs and soldiers of the Republic are gentlemen aa well as warriors, and that if the Btar-hipangled Banner has lost 'none of its stripes its stars are also undiminished and unshorn. They awoke all at once to the truth, which they have pertinacieusly ought to ignore, that the defenders of the Union possess the grades of chivalry as well as its valor. . A Heroic Kentucky Union Girl. • A Paducah correspondent of the Louisville Jour nal, writing under date of February 11, says: In these times of terror and peril in this district, some of the most heroic acts have been performed; but perhaps the noblest of all was isrpetrated, a few days since, by a young lady of Graves county, well known to the writer, rubs ADDS Bassford. Her father and family are devotedly for the Union. The old man having inforsoetloll that the notorious C. King (expelled from our Legislature for trea son) and his robber band intended to visit the house for the purpose of taking horses, guns, &c., hid his gun and brou ght _ his horses to this place. Whilst here three of King's robbing band visited the house, demanded the gun, and alarmed Mrs. Bamford, who ordered a son some fifteen years old to find the gun and deliver it over. The boy, after eoneiderable search, found the gun; the robbers then demand a pistol, which they were informed belonged in the family, whereupon the daughter, Some seventeen years old, told them she knew where the pistol was, but they could not get it. The robbers in sisted, with loud, vulgar oaths, but the girl was determined, and, seeing they were foiled in this, they ordered the feeble, sickly boy to mount up behind one of their elan, as they intended to take him to Camp Beauregard in place of his d—d Lin colnite father. The boy and mother, in tears, pro tested, but to no effect, and the boy wan in the act of mounting, when the herioc slater stepped between her brother and the robbers, and, drawing, (seek ing, and presenting the pistol, ordered her brother back to the house, and, with eagle-piercing eye fastened on the robbers, and death-dealing determi nation in her countenance, dared them to hinder or touch her brother, and she would lay the robber dead at her feet. Suffice it to say, the three bri gands scampered off and loft the family without further molestation.

She did not leave Old Point till ten o'clock last night,- having waited for the arrival of the steamers George Washiligton and Express, Which went up James river, under a flag of truce, to receive the released Union prisoners. Owing to the heavy fog on the James river, they had not arrived when the steamer left. The agent of the Associated Press went up with the flag of truce, and, consequently, we have no letter from -- Several hundred released prisoners wore expect ed, including Col. Corcoran. The steamer Eastern State arrived at Old Point, haVing left Hatteras at 10 o'clock on Tuesday morning, and encountered rough weather all the way. She brings the bodies of Col.

He graduated, with distingn4l liOnere, at the West Point Military Aeadenly, in 18.24; shortly after which he entered the United States service as brevet second lieutenant, and was assigned to duty in the Engineer Corps, in which he served about two years, when he joined his regiment (Seventh Infantry) at Fort Gibson. In February, 1811, he was promoted to a first lieutenancy, and served as aid•de-camp to Generals Arbuckle and Taylor (Old Rough and Ready) np to 1842, when he rejoined his regiment, and served An Florida until 1844, when he was sent on recruiting service, and continued in that duty until the breaking out of the Mexican war, when he rejoined the army and con tinued in active service in the field until the close of the war in 1848. After the close of the Mexi can war ; he was ordered to New Mexico in com mand of his company, having, in the meantime, been promoted to a captaincy. In 1850, he met with an accident which rendered him a cripple for life—sufficiently severe to disqualify him for ac tive duties in the field as a foot officer. lie was then sent on recruiting service, in which duty he remained until 1853, when he was ordered to the command of Fort Arbuckle, and continued in that command until 1858, when his regiment was or dered to Jefferson Barracks en route for Utah ; but a board of surgeons prononneing his lameness of inch a serious character as to disqualify him from active stervion as a captain, he retired tempetarily from the army, and lived with his family in liar risburg, Pa, until the breaking out of the South ern rebellion, when he was appointed mustering officer for the three-months volunteers from Penn sylvania. After the passage of the law establish ing the "Reserve Corps," he was unanimously elected colonel of the Fifth Regiment, although none of the officers of theregiment were personally acquainted with him, taking him entirely upon the recommendation og ci9Verner Curtin and military men who bad acquired a knowledge of his supe rior skill as a tactician. Colonel Simmons was elected on the 19th of June, 1861, and on the 21st he marched at the head of his regiment in company with the First Rifles, known as the " Buoktails," under command of Colonel Charles J. Biddle, to support Colonel Wallace, of the Eleventh Indiana, then at Cumberland, Md. ; the two regiments forming a brigade, and com manded by Colonel Biddle, who was the senior by commission, and I may here remark that both re giments were, as well they might have been, proud of their colonels. It is not my design to trace Colonel Sibling:as father, In connection with his services, but simply to give the reader something like a pen and ink aketch of him as a man and an officer ; • L.ought to say, however, that since his connection with the volunteers he has been promo ted to a majorey, and is now the senior major of the Fourth United States Itifentry. Colonel S. is about fifty years old, of medium height, of strong and robust frame, florid complex ion, brown hair, heavy beard and moustache, light blue eyes, and his fees presenting ordinarily a most calm and benevolent expression, but when excited by the prolpeot of a fight, or by some gross infraction of military rules, every feature seems to flash fire ; and woe to the man who having dine , garded his orders, attempts to persist in any improper course of conduct; but no matter how much any one may have injured hiin personally, if he will make an acknowledgment of his fault, the Colonel will atone relax all his sternness, and re ceive the offender just as though there never had been an offence committed. Seventh Regiment, P. 4, v. C, DAMP PLIBPONT, VA., MoCiLL's Divzgio r, February 18, 1862. [Correspondence of The Press.] The members of this regiment are trying to drive away the monotony of camp life by firing at target. Captain White's company, G (Second Philadelphia' Guards), were mit near the Groat Pad, on the Po tomac, to-day, firing at target. They had for their mark or target the head of a barrel, with a small piece of white paper fastened upon the centre. They had the mark in a conspicuous place, at the distance of two hundred yards. Captain White then offered to secure a Ave-days furlough as a reward to the man that would come nearest driving the centre. So, you can be assured that they all tried to excel at the pleasant but useful game, and they made some fine shooting. At about the sixth shot, James Fu ton, of yciur city, cut the paper near the nail, and, after the firing bad ceased, he was declared the winner, and entitled to the furlough, be baring made the best, Christopher Sloan the second beat, and H. C. White (brother of the captain) the third beet shot, The target via completely out to pieces, penetrated by some fifty balls. B. The Exploits of General- Lander on the Upper Potomac. -A correspondent writing from Cumberland, Md., under date of February 15, eaye: A email portion of General Landman foree being at Paw Paw Tunnels, a station on the Baltimore ant Ohio Railroad, half way between'Hancock and Cumberland, joined it from New Creek with a por tion of the forcethere, and ordered the conetruotion of the Great Coupon Railroad bridge. This was completed on the.evening of the 14th instant. At foar o'clock P.M., on the 13th instant,. General Lander started south with a small oavalry foroe. At eight o'olook the same evening, word came back for a portion of the command to move. On the March This was the first intelligence we had of a march being intended, although the emend bad bean turned out twice a day, with blankets slung, in spected, marched short distances, and ordered to keep two days' cooked rations on hand. It was soon covertly whispered among officers that it was the intention of General Lander to move on Bloom ing Gap, a strong pass in the mountains, reported to be held by General Carsoe's Brigade, 4,000 strong. For this purpose, he had called in all his cavalry force, numbering nearly five hundred men, and led by olonel Anastanzel of the First Virgi nia Regiment. They had been arriving for two days previous. It appeared afterward that it bad been intended to bridge the Cacapon river the next day, but the enemy having discovered the small party of scouts led by General Lander, he concluded to make the march that night. Twenty wagons were placed in the river, planks were hauled, and in four hours a bridge improvised at a point about seven miles south of the railroad. This bridge, 180 feet in length, was built between 9 and 1 o'clock at night. It was about seven miles to Blooming Gap from where the river was bridged. Gen. Lander's Intentions. Gen. Lander's intention was to charge through the gap in the night, as the position of the enemy could not be turned and thcill ilea hit cavalry on the east aide of the town, and cheek their retreat toward Winchester until the infantry provided for a support arrived. It was believed that, whatever the force of the rebels, in the darkness and confu sion the quarters of the officers could be surround ed and tie officers taken before their men could form. It Was one of those dashing exploits for which this officer has been so justly celebrated. But the enensy.had retired beyond the town, and when, led by the General and his staff, the cavalry flew through the gap and rallied behind it, the birds had flown. Col. Aimstanzel was at once ordered to push forward on the Winchester road with the cavalry, reconnoitre, and, if possible, overtake and capture the baggage of the enemy. The Bravery of Lander. General Lander meantime brought up Colonel Carroll with the Eighth Ohio Regiment, and the Seventh Virginia, Colonel Evans, for a support. Colonel Anastanzel encountered the enemy at the head of the pass, two miles from Blooming. lie was met by a sharp fire, and halted his command, instead of pushing through it, to the front. On hearing the firing General Lander came up and ordered Anaktanzel forward. The men faltered before the musketry of the enemy, when Lander saying, " follow me," halting at the head of the column only long enough to tell the men to remem ber their holy mission and follow their general to victory. his appeal was answered by one private nertmd John Cannon, a Virginia refugee. N General Lander charged, followed by Major Armstrong, assistant adjutant general ; Fitz James O'Brien, the well , kown poet of his staff, and Major Ban nister, paymaster, U. S. A., who had volunteered for the expedition. A group of rebel officers were distant about three hundred yards, encouraging their men. General Lander, being mounted on his celebrated horse, outran the rest of the party, and 9.0 Qtr. the retreat of the rebel officers, " Barren= der, gentlemen," he said, and coolly dismounting, extended his hand to receive the sword of Colonel Baldwin, whom an instant before he had appeared to outside observers to be riding directly over. Five of the rebel officers surrendered to General Lander, and four more immediately afterward, to the officers ofbja ARC among them the Assistant Adjutant General of General Carson. By this time the rebel infantry, perceiving the small number of their adversaries, commenced a heavy fire from the woods, but the cavalry had re covered from its panic, and now poured up the hill. General Lander once more ordered Anastanzel to charge up the road, and capture the baggage of the enemy. The cavalry dashed forward, the ad vance guard soon overtook and turned out of the road fifteen wagons and horses, but the main force of the cavalry seemed paralyzed, and would not face the fire. Two of the gallant privates in front were shot by the enemy, who had again rallied, and there was another check. Colonel Evans now came up with his regiment of infantry, and cap lured many more of the rebels. General Lander shot at one of his own cavalry men who refused to go forward, saying, " the next time I'll bit you, and if you don't clear the road this regiment shall deploy and fire upon you." Colonel Carroll now came up; " go on - ," said Gen. Lander to Car roll, "we need you now—clean them out, and take their baggage." Colonel Carroll cleared the road as he went, both infantry regiments behaving ad mirably, following and engaging the enemy to the bud, until ordered back. The pursuit was con tinued eight miles. The result of this affair was the capture of 1.8 commissioned officers and 45 Ina-commissioned officers and privates. Thirty of the rebels were killed, with a loss on our side of seven killed and wounded. Colonel Carroll drove the enemy beyond the limits of General Lander's department, and returned. General Lander has applied to the Geyer -Jaw of Maryland for the promotion of John Cannon to a lieutenancy. He has also the names of several de serving.snes-ef-tbe cavalry force. He attributes the misconduct of the cavalry to the absence of several of their officers now ill at Cumberland. Captain Carman is reported to have behaved well. I wee informed by very good authority that Laa der would fight Jean", in force, in his own de pertinent, but could not proceed beyond it unless to support General Banks, should he need his as sistance. He captured 4,000 bushels of corn and 225 beef cattle, from one of the rebel depots, forty miles south of Romney, a few days sines. His men, on their marches, usually take rations in their haversacks, and beef cattle are driven loose with the command. They have made some astonishing marches for raw troops, and in their numerous skirmishes they have bad no support from artillery. A Letter from Secretary Stanton. The New York Tribune of yesterday publishes the following letter, which its editor has received, from Hon. Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War : : ota .l e c i an al n ae ot ti sti on ff . er T un t d e u g e i g y er y 9 it t t o o ur b r e ec ase ent ri Ti be o d , to S m in y tortes 'belongs to the gallant officers and soldiers that fought the battles. No share of it belongs to me. Much has recently been said of military combi nations and organizing victory . I hear such phrases with apprehension. They commenced in infidel France with the Italian campaign and resulted in Waterloo. Who can organize vic tory? Who can combine the elements of success on the battle field? We owe our recent victories to the spirit of the Lord, that moved our soldiers to rush into bat tle, and filled the hearts of our enemies with terror and dismay. The inspiration that conquered in battle was in the hearts of the soldiers and from ma high ; and wherever there is the same inspiration there will be the same results: Patriotic spirit, with resolute courage in officers and men, is a military combination that never failed. We may well rejoice at the recent victories, for they teach us that battles are to be won now, and by us, in the same and only manner that they were ever won by any people or in any age, since the days of Joshua—by boldly pursuing and striking the foe. What, under the blessing of Providence, I conceive to be the true organization of victory and military combination to end this war was declared in a few words by General Grant's message to ge neral Buckner— I - propose to move immediately on. your works 1" Yours truly, EDWIN M. STANTON. Gen. Johnston's Report of His Doings on the tipper Potomac before the Battle of Manassas. General Joseph E. Johnstoes official report of the battle of Manassas has, for the first time, just been published by the rebel papers. The following preface to his report exposes the strategy he re sorted to to foil General Patterson and join Beau regard : HEADQUARTERS ARMY OP THE POTOMAC, FAIRFAX O. Oat. 14, 18111. To the Adjutant and Inspector General lignfeds rate States Army : • Sin—l have the honor to submit to the honorable Secretary of War a report of the operations of the troops under my command, which terminated in the battle of Manassas. I assumed command at Harper's Ferry on the 23d of May, The force at that point then consisted of nine regiments and two battalioni of infantry, four companies of artillery, with sixteen pieces, without masons, harness, or horses, and about three hundred cavalry. They were, of course, undis ciplined, several regiments without accoutrements, and with an entirely inadequate supply of ammu nition. I loot no time in making a complete reconnois sance of the place and its environs, in which the chief engineer, Major (now. Brigadier General) Whiting ably assisted. The results confirmed my preconceived ideas. The position is untenable by any force not strong enough to take the field against an invading army and to hold both sides of the Potomac. It is a tri angle, two sides being formed by the Potomma and Shenandoah, and the third by Furnace Ridge. The plateau thus enclosed, and the end of Furnace Ridge itself, the only defensible position, which, however, required for its adequate ompetlon double our numbers, was expooed to enfilade and reverse fi res of artillery from he ights on the Mary land aide of the river. Within that line the ground was more favorable to an attacking than to a defending force. The Potomac can be easily crossed at many points above and below, so that it is easily turned. It is twenty miles from the great route into the Valley of Virginia from Pennsylvania and Maryland, by which General Patterson's approach was expected. Its garrison was thus out of position to defend that valley or to prevent General MoClellan'e junction with Gene ral Patterson. These were the obvious and im portant objects to be kept in view. Beside being in position for them, it was necessary to be able, on emergeney, to join San. Beauregard. The occupation of Harper's Ferry by our army perfectly suited the enemy's views. We were bound to a fixed point. His movements were un restricted. These views were submitted to the military authorities. The oontinued occupation of the place wee, however, deemed by them Indis pensable. I determined to hold it until the great objects of the Government required its abandon ment. The practicable roads 'from the Wed and the Northwest, as well as from Manassas, meet the route from Pennqlvania and Maryland at Win chester. That point was, therefore, In sny opinion, our best position. The distinguished commander of the army of the Potomac was convinced, like myself, of our depen dence upon each other, and promised to co-operate with me in case of need. To guard against sur prise, and to impose upon the enemy, Major -Whit ing was direeted to bitottlli a few heavy dune ispou Furnace ridge, and otherwise strengthen the posi tion. I was employed, until the 13th of June t in con. tinning what had been begun by my predeoeseor, Col. (now Major General)Jackson the organisa tion, inatzuotion, end equipment of troops, and providing meant of transportation Mid artillery horses. The river was observed from the Point of Rocks to the western part of the county of Berke ley—the most distant portions by the indefatigable Stuart, with his cavalry. Gen. I"atterson'a troops were within a few hours of Wilihnnwport, and Gen. I,lololellases, in Western Virginia, were supposed to be approaching 'to effiet s junction with Patter son, *hose force was - reported, by well-informed .personn,tto be 18,000 men. • rGulhemorning of the _ l3th (it Juin idorintitiori TWO CENTS. was received from Winchester, that Romney was occupied by 2,000 Federal troops, supposed to be the vanguard of McClellan's troops, Col. A. P. Hill, with his own (Thirteenth), and Col. Gibbon's (Tenth) Virginia regiments, was des patched by railway to Winchester. He wa.s direct ed to move thence towards Romney, to take the best position and best measures to check the ad. vance of the enemy. He was to add to his com mand the Third Tennessee regiment, which lied just arrived at Winchester. During that day and the next the heavy baggage and remaining public property were sent to Win chester by the railway, and the bridges on the Po tomac destroyed. On the morning of the 15th, the army left Harper's Ferry for t Winchester, (the force bed been increased by these regiments since the lst of June,) and bivouacked four miles beyond Charlestown. On the morning of the 16th intelli gence was received that Gen. Patterson'a army had crossed the Potomac at Williamsport; also, that the United States forces at Romney had fallen back. A courier from 1 1 4 1 1ailld brought a despatch author. izing me to evacuate Harper's! Ferry at my discre tion. The army was ordered to gain the Martinsburg turnpike by a flank movement to Banker's Hill, in order to place itself between Winchester and the expected advance of Patterson. On boilfing of WC the enemy recrossed tbe river precipitately. Re suming my first direction and plan, I proceeded to Winchester. There the army was in position to oppose either McClellan from the west, or Patter- Eon from the northeast, and to form a junction with General Beauregard when necessary. Lieut. Col. George Stuart, with Ma Maryland battalion, was sent to Harper's Ferry to bring off some public property said to have been left. As McClellan was moving southwestward from Graf ton, Col. Hill's command was withdrawn from Romney. The defence of that region of country was entrusted to Col. MoDonald'a regiment of ca valry. Intelligence from Maryland indicating another movement by Patterson, Col. Jackson, with his brigade, was sent to the neighborhood of Martinsburg to support Col. Stuart. The latter effacer had been placed in observation on the line of the Potomac with his cavalry. His increasing vigilance and activity was relied on to suppress emlill ineursionii of the enemy, to give intelligence of invasion by them, and to watch, harass, and cir cumscribe their every movement. Col. Jackson was instructed to destroy such of the rolling stock of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad as could not be brought off, and to have so much of it as could be made available to our service brought to Winches ter. hlsjor Whiting was ordered to plan defensive works, and to have some heavy guns on navy oar- Haps mounted. About two thousand five hundred militia, under Brigadier General Carmen, were called out from Frederick and the neighboring counties to man them. On the second of July, General Patterson again crossed the Potomac. Colonel Jackson, pursuant to instructions, fell back before him. In retiring, be gave him a severe lesson in the affair at Falling Waters. With a battalion of the Fifth Virginia Regiment (Harper's) and Pendleton's battery of field artillery, he engaged the ninny'', advance. Skilfully taking a position where the smallness of his force was concealed, he engaged them far a con siderable time, inflicted a heavy loss, and retired, when about to be outflanked„searcelylosing a man, but bringing off forty-five prisoners. Upon this intelligence the army, strengthenedby the arrival of Gen. Bee and Col. Elzey, and the Ninth Georgia Regiment, was ordered forward to the support of Jackson. It met him at Darksville, six miles from Martinsburg, where it took up a po sition for action, as Gen. Patterson, it was sup posed, was closely following Col. Jackson. We waited for him in this position four days, hoping to be attacked by an adversary fit , halt double our number, but unwilling to attack him in a town so defensible as Martinsburg, with its solid buildings and enclosures of masonry. Convinced at length that he would not approach us, I returned to Win chester, much to the disappointment of our troops, who were eager for battle with the invaders. Col. Stuart, withhis cavalry, as usual, remained near the enemy. Before the 13th of July, the enemy's force, ac cording to the best intelligence to be obtained, amounted to about 32,000. Ours had been increased by eight Southern regiments. On the 15th of July Col. Stuart reported the advance of Gen. Patter- Son from Martinsburg, He halted, however, at Bunker's Bill, nine miles from Winchester, where he remained on the 16th. On the 17th he moved to his left, to Smithfield. This created the impres sion that he intended to attack us on tke south, or was merely holding ns in check, while Gen. Beau regard should be attacked at Manassas by Gen. Seat. About one o'clock on the morning of July 18th, I received from the Government a telegraphic dis patch, informing me that the Northern army was advancing upon Manassas, then held by General 13eauregard, and directing me, if practicable, to go to thet otrieet a kt aesistance, sending ray sick to Cut. peper Court House. la the exercise of the discretion conferred by the terms of the order, I at once determined to march tooin General Boanregard. The most service which the army of the Shenandoah could render was to prevent the defeat of that of the Potomac. To be able to do this, it Wag necessary, in the first instance, to defeat General Patterson, or to elude him. The latter course was the most speedy and certain, and was, therefore, adopted. Oar sick, seventeen hundred in number, were provided for in Winchester. For the defence of that place the militia of Generals Carson and Mann seemed ample i for I thought it certain that General Pat terson would follow my movement as soon as he discovered it. Evading him by the disposition made of the advance guard under Col. Stuart, the army moved through Ashby's Gap to Piedmont, a station of the Manassas Gap Railroad. Hence, the infantry were to be transmported by the railway, while the cavalry were ordered to continue their march. I reached Manassas about noon on the 20th, preceded by the Seventh and Eighth Georgia Regiments, and by Jackson's brigade, consisting of the Second, Fourth, Fifth, Twenty-seventh, and Thirty-third Virginia Regimental. I was accom panied by General Bee, with the Fourth Alithilbia, the Second, and two companies of the Eleventh Mississippi. The president of the railroad oom pony bad assured me that the remaining troops should arrive during the day. The rest of the General's report is concerning the battle of Manassas. From the Atlantic, for Marsh]. Voyage of the Good Ship Union. BY OLIVER WENDELL RIMERS. ',Tis midnight : through my troubled dream Loud wails the tempest cry ; Before the gale, with tattered sail, A Chip goes plunging by. What name? Where bound?-The rookie around Repeat the loud halloo. The good ship Union, Southward bound God help her and her crew ! And is the old flag flying still That o'er your fathers flew, With bands of white and rosy light, And field of starry blue? Ay ' look aloft ! its folds fell oft Have braved the roaring blast, And still shall fly whale from the sky This black typhoon has past ! Speak, pilot of the sterm-tost bark? May I thy peril share? —0 landsman, these are fearful seas The brave alone may dare ! —Nay, ruler of the rebel deep, What matters wind or wave ? The rocks that wreck your reelin g deck Will leave me nought to save . 0 landsman, art thou false or true? What sign haat though to show ? —The crimson stains from loyal veins That hold ray heart-blood's flow '.. —Enough ! what more Shall honor claim? I know the sacred sign; Above thy head our flag shall spread, Our ocean path be thine ! The bark sails on ; the Pilgrim's Cape Ides low along her lee, Whose headland crooks its anchor flukes To lock the chore and sea, - No treason here r it coat too dear To win this barren realm ! And true and free the hands must be That hold the whaler's helm ! Still on ! Manhattan's narrowing bay No Rebel cruiser scars; Her waters feel eo pirate?s keel That flaunts the fallen stars ! —But watch the light on yonder height— Ay, pilot, have a care ! Some lingering crowd in mist may shroud The capes of Delaware ! Say, pilot, what this fart may be, Whose sentinels look down From molded walls that show the sea Their deep embrasures' frown? The Rebel host claims all the coast, But these are friends, we know, Whet* footprints spoil the " sacred soil," And this is?-Fort Monroe ! The breakers roar—how bears the shore? —The traitorous wreckers' hands Have quenched tbe blaze that poured its rays Along the Hatteras sands. —Ha! say not so ! I see its glow ! Again the shoals display The beacon light that shines by night, The Union Stars by day! The, good ship flies to milder skies, The wave more gently flows, The softening breeze wafts o'er the seat The breath of Beaufort's rose. What fold is this the sweet winds kiss, Fair-striped and many-starred, Whose shadow palls the orphaned walla The twins of Beauregard ! What ! heard you not Port Royal'a doom? How the Man war-ships came A.nd turned the Beaufort roses' bloom To redder wreaths of flame ? How from Rebellion's broken reed We saw his emblem fall. As soon his ourse'd poison weed • Shall drop from Sumpter's wall ? On ! en! Fulaski'd Wit bail Palls harmless on Tyhee ! Her topsails feel the freshening gale, She strikes the ?pen sea ; She rounds the runt, she threads the keys That Guard the Land of Flowers, And rides at bust where firm and fact . Uti own ailksaltas towers ! The good ship Union's voyage is o'er, . At anchor see she swings, And loud and clear with cheer on cheer Her joyous welcome rings : Hung& Hurrah ! it shakos the wave, It thunders on the shore.— One flag, one land, one heart, one head, - One Nation, evermore!

The report quotes returns, from which it appears that one in ten of the officers of the artillery and engineers end their existenee in a lunatic asylum, and ascribes the fact to the severe mathematical training they are put through at the Polytechnic school before their brain has acquired its full development.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. THE MONEY MARKET. PHILADZIMIII, February 20, 1862. A strong disposition to realize on the whole list pre vailed at the Stock Board to-day. Pennsylvania Rail road fell from the quotation yesterday down to 46, with sales of 10 slowes at every eighth on the downward Beale, and at the second board it fall to UK, and closed at that figure, being a good stock to buy at the present price, in our opinion. Reading Railroad shares sold at the first board at 21%, the closing price of yesterday having been 21X. On both calls on New York there was only 21 bid, and we are informed that the New Ydrk operators have nearly all ma ant at thl i Eittobli. It 1s asserted that there are but four thousand shares of Beading in the names of all the brokers in that city.
