Some of ourcotemporarics announce, almost every week, new accessions to their subscription list. Subscribers should be considerate ond recollect the high price of paper. Such a rush of subscribers must, tventually, ruin our cotemporarics. 55 By a recent act of Congress soldiers discharged from the nrmy by reason of wounds received in battle are entitled to the United Stutcs bounty ; but this law is gene rally misconstrued, so that soldiers dischar ged for disability and other causes excepting wounds in battle, imagine themselves enti tled to the bounty. A right understanding of this law will save soldiers much troublo and expense. tiy By tho recent amendments to the Internal Revenue act "all duties or taxes on coal mined and delivered by coal operators at the mines, on contracts made prior to July 1, 1802, shall be paid by the purchaser thereof." Coal is going to Philadelphia from the Ilazleton region by way of the Reading Railroad, and the Lackawanna & Blooms burg road expects to send two hundred thousand tons that way via the Cattawissa road tho coming season. IsTEREstrKo Lkoal Decision. The Court of Montgomery county, in tho case of Breitenbach m. Bush, Judge Chap man decided that the law staying civil pro cess ogaiust soldiers was unconstitutional Tho case was taken to the Supreme Court, and on Thursday last, at Philadelphia, an opinion was given reversing the decision of the Court of Montgomery connty, thereby ftffiyning tho constitutionality of the law The stay law was enacted on tho 18th April, 18C1. "A Gencixe Cow'eruead. Our neigh bors of the Northumberland County Democrat, boast of a new head procured by the em ployees of that office. The new head referred to, be it understood, is not the head of the editor, but of tho paper. It has been cus tomary, of late years, to uso copper faced type for heads of newspapers, and wo pre sume the "new head" is of that character. The employees, no doubt, thought the sever al heads of the establishment should cor respond, and hence tho propriety of t "copper-head" for the paper. EtT Abandonment. Tho Pennsylvania Railroad Company give notice of their in tention to abandon so much of the western division of the canal (lately forming a part of tho main lino of the public works) as lies between Blairsville and Johnstown, together with dams, feeders and reservoirs lying west or Johnstown, used in connection with w hat is known as the upper western division. tSf" Our neighbor of the Democrat s.iys that tho term copperheads is applied to democrats. This is a great mistake. No one ever thought of applying such an cpi- tnet to uoveruor Johnson, Judge Holt. Gov, Dickinson, Governor Todd, General Butler. John Van Burcn and many other leadiug democrats, who have always been the ardent supporters of tho democracy taught by Jefferson, Jackson and Douglass. The term is applied only, and very properly, to such counterfeit democrats as Vallandigham' Batilsbury, Breckinridge, Floyd, Jen. Davis and their followers. It is fortunate that tho copperheads are not numerous. They are only dangerous because they secretly circu late their subtle poison uuder the garb of democracy, and thus deceive the ignoraut and unwury. lSotrue patriot (and every good democrat should be a patriot) will knowingly agree to be led by men who ym pathize aud art n ith traitor who openly de clare that tho laborers and mechanics of the North aro no Utter than their slaves, and refuse to recognize them as equals. l7Goou Nitws Fhoii pip, Sorru.

A private letter has been received at Wash ington, by a naval officer, from Acting Rear Admiral Porter, which has created much amusement in Cabinet circles. It seems that Porter was much surprised to learn, on the Snth of February, that the ram Queen of the West was at Warrenton, seven miles below Yicksburg, with the relwl flag flying, ond steam up. The account Porter received from Kllet led him to believe that the Queen was in such n condition that she could not be repaired for some time. "I knew," Bay's Admiral Porter in his letter, "that Brown could take caro of the Wehb by himself, but 1 nave no idea that lie will be a maten lor the Queen ond AVebb both amusing him nt tho samo time. Tho Indiunoht is a weak vessel, nnd the only good thing about her is her battery. ' Ho proceeds to say that "ou ring the time of the running of the blockade by the Queen und Inditinoln, five rebel guns were burst and dismounted in their forts. Therefore it was an object to make them fire as much as possible. 1 cot a mortar in easy range, and opened on that part of tho town where tlicro was nothing but army supplies, and soon provoked a tire of four ot their heavy batteries. The shell nt first fell over the mortar ond around it, bursting close to our men : but tho range began to grow shorter and shorter, until they let us have it all our own way. Finding that they could not be provoked without an object, I thought of getting up an imitation Monitor. An old coal barge, picked up iu the river, was the foundation to build on. It was constructed in twelvo hours, of old boards, with pork barrels piled on tnpot each other lor smoke stack, and two old canoes for quarter boats, Her furnaces were built of mud, and only intended to make black smoke, nnd not steam. On the night ot the 24th lie heard, at 0 o'clock, heavy guns about fifteen miles below. We knew that the rebels had noth ing but light guns there, which could not be heard ot any distance. So wo thought it was tho Indianola engaging tho batteries at Carthage, tit teen miles below v icksburg. Not knowing that Brown wos in peril, we let loose our Monitor. It was towed to w ithin a couple of miles of the first battery, nnd let go, when it was discoverod by tho dim light of the moon that Yicksburg was in a stew. Never did her batteries open with such a vim. The earth fairly trembled and the shot flew thick around the devoted Monitor, which returned no shot with her long wooden gun. The Monitor ran safely past all the batteries, though under a heavy fire for an hour, and drifted down safely to tho lower mouth of the canal, wherosbc was tucked into an eddy. The rebels were com plctcly deceived by her. As soon as they saw her by daylight they opnned on her again with all the guns they could bring to bear, but w ithout a shot hitting lier to do any harm, for the shot went through one side nud came out the other, without cans ing her to sink, us she was full of water nl ready. Our soldiers shouted and laughed like mad, but the laugh was somewhat against them when, at dnvlicht. we dis covered the ram Queen of tho West lying at Warrenton ; and the question at once arose what had happened to tho Indianola. Had the two rams sunk her or captured her in the engagement wo had heard the night before i One or two of the soldiers got the Monitor out in the stream, and lei her go tiown on tne ram Queen. All the tort com l'lH(f fltil mi rrii nl 1 71 it nitil aa 4-1 i A Monitor approached tier, tho ' ram turned tan anu ran down the ntcr as last as sh could go, the Monitor after her. making all the speed that was given her by a five-knot carrcnt.

United States Mrssifwrprt Squadron, Yazoo River, March 10 (via Memphis and Louisville, 13th.) lion. Gideon Weli.es, Secretary of the Navy : I have been pretty well assured, for some time past, that the Iudianola had been blown up, in consequence of tho appearance of a wooden imitation Monitor, which the enemy sunk with their batteries. Tho Monitor was a valuable aid to us. It forced away tho Queen of the West, and caused the' blowing up of the Indianola. The following is an account of the ofiuir taken from the Vicksburg Whig, of the Oth instant : "Destruction of the 'Indianola.' We stated a day or two smco that we would not enlighten our readers in regard to a matter which wus puzzling them very much. Wo alluded to the loss of the gunboat Indianola, recently raptured from the ene my. We were loth to aeknowlcdgc she had been destroyed ; but such is the case. 'The Yankee barge sent down the river last week was reported to be on iron-clad gunboat. The authorities thinking that this monster would retake tho Indianola, imme diately issued on order to blow her up. Tho order was sent down by courier to the offi cer in charge of the vessel. "A few hours afterwurds another order was sent down countermanding the first, it being ascertained that the monstrous craft was only a coal boat ; but before it reached the Indianola, she had been blown to atoms not even a gun w as saved. AVho is to blame for this folly this precipitancy ? 'It would really seem as if wo had 110 use for gunboats 011 tho Mississippi, ns a coa( barge is magnified into a monster, and our authorities immediately order a boat that would have been worth a small army to us to bo blown up."'

Since the late raid was made at this place by Captain Moscly's Rebel cavalry, Provost Marshal O'Conner has been very energetic in ferreting out and arresting tho citizens who gave mlormation and aided the Kcbels. On Monday evening nine of these unprin cipled fellows were captured, Hud on the following day forwarded to Washington. Yesterday some others concerned in the disgraceful affair were taken and sent to Provost-Oencrai at Alexandria. The first ono is J. II. Barnes, residing about two miles and a half beyond here, at a little village known as Gcrmautown. About three months we gave a sketch of the indi vidual, showing how he betrayed confidence reposed in him upon the representation of being a Union man. He then disguised his true feelings and sentiments to smuggle goods through the lines to the Rebels. Even more than he did. He procured passes for Secession women and sent them to Rich mond to trive information of the doings of our army. Now he figures in another but similar phase piloting Rebels through our lines in such a Manner as to allow them to make a successful raid. Two brothers, J. II. nnd W. II. Miles, Presiding near Sudley's Mills, have for some lime past been harboring guerrillas, taking care of their horses, and otherwise comfort ing the enemy. A third brother is still at large, but when caught will huve to pay the penalty of his misdeeds. A young lady, whose father was arrested during the early part of the week, now shares his fute, she too having been taken. Yesterday her house was visited, nnd, after being searched, she was politely requested j to accompany the soldiers. This she did i reluctantly. I Upon the premises were found letters which clearly show that she had been cor- reponding with Rebels in Richmond. I Some papers of un important character were ! not overlooked, and through them it is learned that another raid has been planned lor to-night.

The punboat C'oncinntirh, I.ietitcnant Cotumander Eastman, accomplished a very clever thin? last week, while on her post oil' Georgetown, S. C. A steamer was disco vered, one lnorniii!!, making her way to wards the entrance of the North Santes, which lies to the north of the Georgetown shouts with the intention of running into that river, which has not recently been co vered by a blockade, in consequence of tho almost utter impossibility of any vessel, save small bottomed ones, of crossing the bar, which has but a few feet of water on it mid is nl way 3 dangerous. It would seem that thu Coneiniiugh was di-fovered by the stranger about the time she whs made out by the latter, and the former, fearing chase and capture, from which she was not likely to escape, was headed for the shore, and run on it at full speed. The captain, olllccrs and crew immediate ly took to their bouts and landed, after having set tire to the after part of thu vessel. Lieutenant-Commander Eastman immedi ately tscnt bouts to her, which reached her after the tire was nearly extinguished. They found her tftally deserted, ond after htiving entirely extinguished the tlatnc, began an e.uinination of the ship ami cargo.

Such nro also tho advices in possession of our Govern ment. General Burnsidc, having been assigned to his new Department, will at once assume command. General Parko accompanies him. General Cadwnlader lias been assigned to the command of the Second Corps, Army of the Potomac. Up to this evening no official information has been received bv the Government in regard to affairs at Vicksburg. Reports of captures in 1 azoo River, by our lorces, are believed by Government olucials. Reported Kvneuntion of VU'Udburg Credited. Cincinnati. March 17. The reported evacuation of Vicksburg is credited here on two distinct grounds. One reason assigned is, that the Federal troops have forced the evacuation by the rear movement, cutting off the Rebel supplies. Tho other reason is, that Port Hudson is to bo left to hold the Mississippi, while the rebel troops at Vicks burg retire to tho interior, ultimately to reinforce tho rebels in East Tennessee, for another invasion in Kentucky. Cincinnati, March 17. The reported rebel advance on Fort Donelson is purely sensational, nor has there been any fighting near Jackson, Tcnn., with loss of urtiller, as reported.
