Since Mnndiiy lust tliere have nrrived lit this )ort soiiiu twenty stemmrs Itnlcn with the rebel prisoners from the guerilla Mor gan's conitntinil and their spoils, together with the trophies which wc have taken. On Monday aeventy-two officers nrrived, in cluding four colonels, one lieutenant colonel two majors, seven surgeons, seventeen cap tains, thirty-eight lieutenants, one chaplain And two surgeons. These ure now in con finement in the city prison. Kight hundred and sixty non-conunissioticd ollicers nud privates left the same night for the Camp Morton prison at Indianapolis. On Thurs day the Hertha utrived from Uullington Is land with two hundred more, including six captains, eleven lieutenants and one surgeon. Tho ollicers were taken to the city prison and the men to Camp Morton. !Six steam ers arrived on Friday evening from Seven Mile l'tin with one thousand and eighty-one more prisoners, captured hy Gen. Jitdah's and Colonel Shack leford's command, who were sent to Camp Chose immediately upon their urrival. Three hundred and fifty-two more nrrived this morning, to be sent to Camp Morton. I visited the city prison yesterday for the purpose of seeing and having a conversation with the rebel ollicers eon lined there. At the door, on the roof, and till around the building a heavy guard was placed, on ac count of the dilapidated state of the build ing. A group of women, whose accent lietrnycd their southern origin, were clamor ing with the otliccr of the guard for admit tance to see the persecuted 'southern gentle men,'' but General liuinside had wisely issued an order that no person should be admitted save 'the press." So ihc indig nant females had to return no wiser than they came. The rebel ollicers ate well cared fur. ami have the same rations as our troops and arc allowed to receive what clothing is nece-sary for their comfort from their friends. The ollicers are mostly from Kentucky and Tennessee, and many of them are well educated and intelligent nictv, much more so even than I had expected to See. 1'ut few Confederate uniforms were visible among the ollicers. The men were dressed in all sorts nt co-tunics, the butternut and ' Kentucky jeans being prominent. Some had straw hats, some wool hats ami but few I had decent clothing of any kind. They ! were a mot ley and dirty looking a set of! men as I ever saw. Tin; Fort Dotielson prisoni rs were neat and tidy compared with these. They were of all ages, from the j ! aidless boy ol sixteen to the giayheaded ' man of Ihieescore uud ten, for two were ' there over seventy years of age. There were a number of Texaus among them, w ild am! i uncouth look'ng men. apparently well lilted j for the business in which they had been en gaged that of robbers and marauders. Among the ollicers at the city prison were ' Colonels Jlasil Duke ami Dick Morgan, a brother of .loli n Charlton Morgan, a lieu- tenant and another brother, is also contiucd j in the same ward. The surgeons have been . paroled, and we understand they arc at the Spencer House awaiting the orders of the j government. The remainder of the ollicers ; will probably leave to-day or to-morrow lor j Johnson's Island prison, near Toledo. I'resenting my pass to the ollieer iu charge ' of the prisoners I was shown into the ollice j of the city prison and requested wait until j the rcla l ollicers of note were brought down ' About ten minutes elapsed, when the door ! opened and two men of youthful appearance j entered, accompanied by a Major of the : I'nited States cavalry and an infantry otli- J cer, tlie latter of w hom was lirst introduced. COLON 1.1. KAMI. PI KK. I The appearance of this rebel ollieer was, rather prepossessing than otherwise, lie is of small stature, weighing scarcely H) lbs., I well built, erect, with lingular lent ures, dark hair brushed carelessly aside, sparkling and lienctruting eves of the same color a low forehead, mousta.h and giyitcc. lie has a j sweet, musical voice, a pleasant smile con- tinually on his face and is very free and cor- tual in ins manner. 1 here is nothing com- i manding in his appearance, though lie has been termed by some the "brains of the , raid."' He is reputed brave, and not cow- I ardly, like John Morgan. Your correspon dent recollects him is a commipion mer chant in St. Louis, a few years since, at which place lie is well known, us ulso in this city, and when in business was spoken of as an intelligent and good business man. His birth-place is Georgetown, Scott county, Ky., and we tint'., on reference to the cata logue of Yale College for 1811, the name of Jlasil Duke, of Kentucky, of Kentucky, llrigadier-Gcneral Carrington and Captain Harrington, United Slates Army ; Ihigadier Generals Taylor, Conner, Urickel and Shor ter, of the rebel army ; Colonel Conner, of Mississippi, uud Colonel Dixon, of South Carolina, in the same class, all of w hom, we believe, graduated iu 1845. Iu January lust Colonel Duke was wounded ut Springlield, Ky., iu a skirmish with tho Seventh Ken tucky (Union) Cavalry, und came near be ing captured, but by some means escaped from our forces, under cover of tho night, in a carriage. He informed me, during the short conversation I had with him, that he had no doubt but that Morgan would cscae but that he thought he would not under take another raid into the border states, but would cou tine himself to Kentucky hereafter. He said the uieu were very much fatigued j that they usually rested off their horse from three to four hours each night, aud slept in their saddles, being accustomed to hitrdship but that this was the hardest raid they hud ever attempted, and they had anticipated crossing just above Cincinnati, but that llurnside had out-generated them. He seem ed very w illing to couverse, and was appa rently in very good spirit, considering he was a prisoner. He was dressed in plain blue jean pauli, 'without coat or vest (hav ing laid them aside), and had on a line linen shirt. There were no murk of rank about him when taken. TUK UKOTUtn or JOUS MOBOAN. In an armchair to the right of me, during my conversation with Basil Duke, sat a medium-sized well-built young man, with dark hair, smooth luce, w itb rather a stern cast of countenunce, apparently about thirty year of age. He was introduced to nie a Colonel Dick Morgun, brother of tho "ubkiuitou" John. He ha rather a pleasant blue eye, and is of phlegmatic temperament. He wa dressed in the gray punts und close buttoned roundabout ol ' the Confederate army, wit i no insignin vf rank, save n single gilt star on his black felt hat, w hich he was continually twisting in his hnnd. U first ho was very tnctiturn, but gradually wanned up and be came ai ore communicative. He told me that4ast fall he was on the staff of General A. P. Hill, in Virginia, but that lie was ordered west, to his native state, to did his brother in the present raid, which had been talked of for a long time previous to its con summation. He said, had they been suc cessful in this raid a much larger force was to follow ; for it was the design of the Con federate leaders to organir.e a scries of raids, and carry the war into our midst. He firm ly believed, he said, that we would have to acknowledge the Southern Confederacy, for they all would light until the last man of them was killed, and if their cause was hopeless they would sink with it. lint there seemed to be but little sincerity in the tone of Colonel Dick's conversation, for evident ly he did not believe what he stated; for he admitted afterw ard evident'- lorgctting himself that 'the cause of the Souili was hopeless. He is not the gentleman in np pearance that Colonel Duke is, and is evi dently not so much of a favorite with the other officers. Lieutenant Carlton Morgun, another bro ther, was afterwards introduced. He is a taller man than Colonel Dick Morgan, and not so fleshy. He bears considerable re semblance to John. He is- of fair com plexion, sandy hair und light blue eyes, und is rather of a' jovial disposition, lie, also was dressed in the "gray rebel uniform," with gold lace on the collar, unci wore an immense sombrero of wool, looped up at the side. After a conversation of ubotit half an hour with the leaders we accompanied them upstairs to their quarters, to see the rest of the prisoners. Upou entering we found some sixty-eight men, mostly Tenncssceans und Kentuckiatis huge, brawny men, most of them, while not u few of a more lithesome form, lying on I lankels, jumped up and courteously greeted us, evincing iu their manner good birth und education. They were dressed in nil styles of costumes, but few Confederate uniforms being worn, as they were mostly clad in linen coats, appropriated from the wardrobesof ( ihioaiis or from clothing stores, the property of w hich they confiscated. One huge six-looter was clad iu a dressing- robe, and sported a huge black sombrero, looped up at the side w ith a plume of the same color. His immense black whiskers, which reached nearly to hi waist, und his heavy moustache, gave iiim a brigandisli-looking appearance as he strode in a theatrical manner around the room, smoking n cigar. He wusu Texaji captain of guerillas, having a decidedly cut throat looking appearance. .Many of the ollicers wore army pantaloons and vests, which they had stolen, as they said, the better to disguise them in their Marauding expeditions. Among them was a clergyman, the l!ev. T. D. Moore, a personage id' the Methodist persuasion, w ho, when interrogated by one of our parly why he joined such an expedition, tried to justify himself by saying that Morgan was only retaliating for Grieison's raids in Mississippi, and that he was acting only in accordance with honorable warlare. Thu temperature of the prison being about ninety degrees Fahrenheit, 1 left, with a request from Dick Morgan to call again, and to intercede with General HurnsMe for a barrel of lager-beer and a box of cigars, in w hich request the aforesaid "bogus parson'' and the theatrical Texan joined. The rebel ollicers seemed to have plenty of "greenbacks," and any amount of "blucbacks" or Confederate notes. I.ieutenant-Colonel Hoffman, who was severely wounded in the affair at lliiHington Island, commands a Texan regiment of rangers. He has been removed to the Wash ington Pink Hospital. Dick Morgan was also slightly woxndcd in the same skirmish, lia.-il Duke is brother-in law to General Green Clay Smith, the Union candidate for Congress, who represents the Covington and Newport district of Kentucky. A number of tho ollicers have families in Covington aud Newport. m Aiic'lot- 1 -n'i-rl 4 run I. We tiud the following iu the Detroit Fret I'lifH : "A gentleman of this city, who was an early friend of Geuerid Grant, furnishes the following reminiscences of the brave general who has so inseparably linked Ins name with the victories of the w estern armies : "General Grant is of a Methodist family of Ohio, and married the daughter of a Methodist local preacher, and the grand daughter of the "pioneer of Methodism in Western Pennsylvania, of the namo of Wrenshall. Wheu not much over twelve years of age hu wus ut school, und had as a schoolfellow his own natural cousin, whose parents were liritish subject ot Camilla. Young Grant wus taught to forgive Injuries, as a Divine precept, and to do good and not evil to others, and his father had im pressed hi mind with love of country and reverence for the name of Wushiiigtou. The Canadian had been otherwise educated, aud believed Wushiiigtou a rebel. On one occasion u discussion arose between tho boys u to love of country and duty to a king, w lien John said: "L. S., (Grant had becu nicknamed U. S.,) your Wushiiigtou was a rebel, aud fought uguinst his king.' "Grant replied: 'Jack, you must slop that or I'll flog you. I can forgive you for obiising me, but if )ou abuse our Washing ton I'll off coat anil right, though you are cousin Jack, aud mother may lick me for not forgiving.' The boys fought. Juck got the worse of it, but 'V. S.' was ulut being whipped at home for fighting, w hen his father interposed and saved him, saying, 'The boy who will tight for Washington will prove himself a uiun uud a Christian, if God spures hi iu for twenty years.' "Some few veura ago the boys, now inungrown, met m Canada, and recurred to school days. Jack suid : 'U. S. do you remember the licking you gave inu for calling Washington a rclicl V "'Yea I do, and Juck I'll do it again under like provocation. Washington i my idol, and to me it is more insulting to spcuk disrespectfully of Washington or my country than to denounce myself. Mother's maxim docs very well in private quarrels, but it don't apply where one's country is denounc ed, or it god. Washington ; first in the American pantheon, aud I couldn't rest easy if I permitted any abuse of hi name.' "Such was and is 'Unconditional Surrvu dcr Grant.'

It ia ennstantly nrgncd by the copperhead press, that with the destruction of slavery will end tho production of largo crops of cotton in the United States. Even the ad vocates or emancipation are accustomed to admit that the crop must be very small for many years to come, und prices, consequent ly, very high. The writer predicts a rapid increase in the annual crop from n date two years from the end of the war. admitting that in the first year or two after the war a very small crop will be raised ; ond he also predicts that within ten years larger crops thatwere ever before produced in the United States will be raised. The argument is based upon the ascertain ed facts in regard to the State of Texas. Texas possesses the best cotton land in the country; her capacity to produce cot ton is estimated nt 20.000,000 bales. Her climate is unequalled for health. Much the largest part of her ngriculture is performed by the whites; the cultivation of cotton, however, being the most simple, requiring no intelligence in the laborers w hen perform ed on the plantation system by large gangs under overseers, is almost entirely carried on by slave labor. Tho standard for nil able-bodied negro in Texas is ten acres ol cotton and live of corn, the latter producing sullicient food for him self and family. The average product of cotton per ncie is 4(10 pounds, giving ns the saleable product of each field hand 4.000 pounds of cotton. In 1800 the crop of cotton in' Texas was 405,100 bales of 400 pounds each, requiring us many acres of land, or less than one quar ter of one per cent, of the area of the state. The rude labcr of a slave, with heavy, ill adnpted tools, produced 4.000 pounds of cotton per annum, which was worth in 18.VJ and 1800, ten cents per pound, or $100. Free and intelligent labor, Using light and well-adapted tools, would double the pro duct of the slave, provided extra assistance could be procured in the picking season ; but us this may not be, it is unsafe to esti mate the product of a free laborer at over 0,000 pounds per annum. It is not believed that the price of the small crops ot cotton raised immediately after the war will be less than 25 cents per pound. The first crops of the free laborer in Texas w ill, therefore, bring him in a cash income of iT,.-0U per annum, w ilh less hard labor than is required to raise a crop of corn in New England, and in u more healthy cli mate. In 1850 the slave population of Texas was 58.101; in lfOO it was 18J,50tl. Per cent, increase, 2i:!,801 00.

The Melbourne correspondent of the Lou don Times tells the following story : "Itc turning to the township of a Victorian wa tering place on a Sunday evening, after a long stroll in the country, I heard coming up behind me at a trot about thirty head of cattle. I observed, as they approached, that they were all milch cows, nnd that a sort of gentleman in his shirt sleeves, and well mounted, kept them together on tho one side, and a woman, also on horseback, was rounding them up on the other side. As sl.e galloped after some errant animal, her habit gracefully flying behind her, nnd her sent (ns she jumped logs nnd little creeks) safe nud assured from long practice, she looked like Die Vernon turned useful ; and nny one would have pronounced her a lady, and an clegnnt lady too, had she not been driving cattle, which, to my prejudiced eye nither complicated her personul appearance with a touch of Smitlitield. The whole group swept by, and in a minute or so were lost sight of iu the bush. "Early on the next morning I was walk ing through the little township before break fasts when 1 saw a milk cart with tho most modern style of shining tin pails in it stand ing at a door, a man serving the milk, while a woman sat in the cart handling the reins. As they drove off I had a dim recollection of having seen them before, but w here or under what circumstances I could not cull to mind. 1 described to my old Scotch landlord what 1 have seen, as above describ ed, and at once he told me what he nnd all his neighbors evidently regarded as one of the most romantic little stories of which the neighborhood could boast. The puir of equestrians in the bush aniLthc pair in the milk cart were, it seems, one and the same puir. When young and poor they hud mar ried in England, despite the opposition of friends. The gentleman had been in the navv; the ladv had been delicately nurtur ed. ' ' 0 "Soon after marriage they resoived to be gin the world afresh. They nrrived in Vic toria very poor. Mr. I) , the husband, nearly related to a noble family in England, nevertheless, with honorable strength of w ill worked hard w ith his hands, and his deli cate young wife was a devoted nnd self-denying partner in his hurdships. He put by a little money, and bought u few head of stock. And now Mr. D. declares that he is as happy as the day is long, and that he would not exchange his position for the command of the bc.-t ship in her Majesty's navy. They have three children, pronounc ed to be wonders of pretty behavior and good training ; nud thefather and mother tsay tho gossips), after nine years of married life, 'speak to each other more like lovers than like man and wife. Together they round up the cattle of an evening, and to gether they serve the milk in the morning. In the evening after the 'kye' are in, she so laces herself and little circle with the piano, and gives an hour or so to the education of her little ones. Put it is said that she is not altogether us contented as her lord. 'Why (' said I, deeply interested in this little ro mance of real life. After many questions ami many answer, here is the out come of the cross-examination of various witness. At the bottom of all the lady's rural felicity is a something w hich poisons it somew hat human pride.

It cannot bo too earnestly piessed upon public attention that the need of men in the Union armies is present und urgent that the Kcbcllion, now reeling under the stag gering blows it has recently received, wants time to recover its breuth and that what ever tends lo give it a respite from the vic torious progress of our arms tends to pro long the struggle indefinitely, exhaust the National resources, nnd very possibly iusure the triumph of Disunion. Delay is the great peril of the National cause. It involves the chalice of foreign intervention in behalf of the rebels ou the one side und of Northern Pro-Sluvery inter ference in their interest ou the other. The former we have been accustomed to regard with little apprehension ; the latter is a real danger. Thus a Unionist w rote on thu 2 2d ult., from our army, then hcicging Vieks burg, to "The Sf Louis Democrat,'' as fol lows : "1 1 spoke witli one of our prisoners, who was formerly a merchant in some interior tow n in Georgia.

'No,' he replied, "I do not ; but we will prolong the w ar until after the next Presidential elec tion, which will result iu the triumph of the Pro-slavery party of the North, and then a recognition of our rights will speedily fol low.' I tried tu convince him that there wus no 'Pro-S!uvery party in the North' that the men who would favor recognition formed a small class, not worthy the name of a political party, lint he w ould not le lieve it. He firmly Itelieved that in the 'Pro-Slavery party in the North' tho South would find her deliverer that the North was hopelessly divided that our soldiery were dissatisfied w ith the conduct of the war 'and all that wus necessary was to prolong the struggle until their friends in thu North could come into power.' And ho represented us he suid, the views of the en tire South." Wur imposes hardships und demand sacrifices.

The following is from a letter written by an ollieer iu the regular military service, now iu the field under General Mendc. lie lie is a descendant of one of the most dis tinguished of the founders of the republic : "Dear : You see by the above that we have crossed the Rubicon for the third time in my experience, and Heaven grant that it may be the last, for I am in hopes that this campaigne will give thu finishing stroke to the rebellion, and add a new vic tory to the glorious succession that lets marked this memorable month of July, 1800. "We were alarmed by rumors which were circulated in the army to the effect that the Administration had stopped the conscription on hearing of the opposi tion iu New York. This cannot be true, ns such a measure would be the proof of weak ness that w ould soon result in the overthrow of not only the Administration but of the government it represents. "I think by tho time wo have come down to the cold, culm view of the issues nt stak uncolored by excitement or the glorious ro mouco of success that we all dreamed of when the war first broke out. "The war has become n sort of a monoto nous background to the life of the people at home, and ils existence is only brought to their minds by tho few wounded soldiers, the military accoutrements in the shop win dows, and the big letters in the newspapers. At first it was a splendid vision ot glory and conquest ; nnd now a long, deadening tax on their patience nnd pockets. It was nn excitement which tho politicians laid hold of, like that of the Japanese, or the Prince of Wales. It was n novel sensation to find a spark of real patriotism in his sel fish breast rather pleasant than otherwise. He attended meetings, ond voted resolu tions ; hung out a huge piece of bunting, and declared his intention of standing by the constitution ot his forefathers. Of course it was not necessary to go and fight his neighbor could do that, und he was not needed ; and with a compound of false patriotism and genuine selfishness he await ed the result. "Put the result was very far off, and the excitement waned gradually away thou sands of brave fellows went to their long account, ond their places must be filled tilled by a draft ; ami then the situation is changed. Every one is liable to go, ond the wheel of the provost marshal, stern and inexorable ns the wheel of Fate, may roll to every man's fireside und take him away ; nnd then the politician comes out in his true colors, and says : 'The people arc their own rulers : the draft is unconstitutional, the peole carry on the war or not, just as they please.' I have sometimes felt like saying, O l for a Napoleon, a Frederic, or n Cromwell! a man stern and strong even unprincipled, if necessary but still a tyrant for we have come to that pass. "We have conic tu that terrible reality, that we must fight for our mime und nntiuu atity, as the stern old Netherlander fought the good tight, until the canals ran witli red Dutch blood, which cemented the founda tion of a free, brave, uncomproiuised peo ple. "We must learn that the man who shoul ders his musket is not doing favor to the country, as the volunteer seem to thiuk but drying a riyltt which the government has, to sacrifice every drop of American blood, if necessary, and then call for the women when the husbands ure dead. ve must learn that other nations have done it before, in a far less glorious cause, nnd that the conscript is more the soldier in every sense of the word than the bravest volunteer that ever drew breath.

Tho Charleston Courier says : The bom bardment on Saturday which lasted from morning till night, was as terrific us incessant, us fierce us it is possible for oue to conceive. Tho thunder of their guns the booming of the shells, which burs ted in myriad in unit around Uuttery Wagner, led u to suppose that the slaughter must be immense; and those least prone to give way to despondent feelings looked on with blanched cheeks, and compressed lips, aud feared the worst for those who witnessed the bombardment from tho houses and steeples, uud the various points of observation, it seemed impossible for any work put up of mortal mail to stand such a terrible und con centrated fire, and pass unscathed through such an crdeal.

Mr. Evelyn Dcnison, the Speaker of the liritish House of Commons, has lately tried a steam plough on some tough clay-lands, and writes an enthusiastic account of the results to General Peel. "The event most interesting to farmers that has occurred lately, he write "especially to farmers cultivating strong clay lands, is the proved success of steam cultivation. It happened this spring that a fine farm of between six hundred and seven hundred acres of clay land came into my hands, in a very bad state from a slovenly tenant. It seemed to me the time was come to call in the aid of steam. I adopted the machine of Mr. Smith of Woolston. During the dry weather of the month of May, when the land was baked as hard as a brick, and wncn no implement moved by horses could make any impression, my ten horse-power steam-engine began its work, smashing and breaking up the land in a manner that was quite surprising. The farmers of the neigh borhood came to look on, and there was not a dissentient voice; every one said, 'This is what we want ; this is'the way to fallow clay land.' " He relates that the first cost of his ma chinery was $2,500. Where the ground is very hard 1 lie cost (independently of inte rest on outlay) the first time over is twelve cents, the second six cents per acre. And the work is so superior to work done by horses that many farmers said they would rather pay il 10s. per acre to have their land so broken up. How to PiiKSKiivb; Enos Fiti:sn. If the pores of the egg-shell be kept closed, the contents must be preserved intact, as no change can occur, and the subject is to close this atmospheric connection in the cheapest and simplest manner. Any kind of varnish will answer the purpose in one sense, but will defeat it in another; as eggs, being par ticularly affected by strong scents, would lose their delicate fl avor bv the od ir of the coating. A better plan would be to employ beef suet or mutton tallow, provided the egg can be kept in a cool place. The eggs should be dipped in the fat nud afterward w iped off, us any excess of grease over that required to fill the pores, would become ran cid. After this the eggs should be set per pendicularly, with the small end uppermost and placed in a box filled with bran und tightly covered up. If the egg is laid on its side, the yolk will adhere to the shell. Charcoal finely pulverized is a good substi tute for bran, as it is a deodorizer and will absorb uny disagreeable effect that wight be perceived from the grease. Tn Pracb CeiiL.
