FoaTmo Moyaoa, May 8. By the steamer from Yorktown, I learn that Gen. litt'Clellan had advanced twelve milts be yond Williamsburg, and has had several skir addles with the enemy, routing them with heavy lose. The embarkation of troops for West Point is progressing with great rapidity. A heavy battle took place on Wednesday af ternoon between the troops of General FatlLlE lin and General Bedgwick, and the rebels under General Lee who were endeavoring to make their way to Richmond. It is said to have been the severest battle on the peninsula. The rebels were totally routed and flanked, being driven back towards the forces under Gen. Johnston on the Chickahominy. The whole number of federal' killed and wounded was three hundred, and the enemy were driven back by our gunboats with great slaughter. They had not less than thirty thousand men while our whole force at the time was not over twenty thousand, only that number having landed. Had it not been fur the gunboats our troops would have been de feated. THE LATEST. FORTRESS MONROE, 8. The crew of the steam tug J. B.

Sewell's Point and Pig Point they say 'are already abandoned and preparations were being made to destroy the navy yard and other public property. In consequence of several typographical er rors, having occurred In the following communi cation published yesterday, we republish it this afternoon in a corrected form: [Her the Telegraph.) The City Finances._ EDITOR or Tittsoaartt:—Uoder the above caption there appears an Article in your paper or yesterday evening, signed John A., Fisher, in which, speaking of the annual statement by common council of the finances of the city he says : "I noticed, to my great surprise, an item of credit for expenditures, by council of paper books and Attorney's fees, J. A. Fisher $189." In his comment on this great surprise, he says: "This is a gross mistake, if not a wilful error and intended misrepregentation, as I never re ceived that nor any other sum of money for the items mentioned from the city tteasury, nor for any other account during the years 1861-62. Mayor Kepner, out of his' own private funds, paid me in 1861, in the suit of the city of Harris burg vs. the hi tyor, the monies paid by me to the printers of paper books, also for profession al services rendered !or him in the above case in the Court of Common Pleas and in the Sup reme Court." At a meeting of the Common Council on the 7th day of Bsptember, 1861, there was present ed, with others, a paper, of which the follow ing is a true copy : _ Bead Wm. H. Miller, Esq., for writ of error to Supreme Court, May 14, 1861 $6 00 June Bth, 1881, paid Barrett & Mc- Dowell, printing paper book. (26 Pag's,) 99 00 June 11, 1861, Juhn A.

Mitchell's Prothonotary bill 8 00 $lB9OO and at Paid meeting of council on the 7th day of September, 1801, an order on the treasurer was granted, of which the following is a trite copy: No 207 Council Chamber, Sept. 7th, 1861, $139 00 Treasurer of the city of Harrisburg. Pay to the order of Wm. H. Kepner, one hundred and thirty-nine dollars for paper book and council fee to J. A. Fisher, end the same will be) allowed you on settlement. By order of the council, Attest. D. W. GROSS, Pres. Dann H&unia, Clerk. This order is endorsed Wm. H. Kepner, and was paid by the treasurer on the 12th day of Sep tember, and is now cancelled and on file among the papers of the city. This is the evidence on which the "annual statement' by the council is founded, and if Mr. Fisher or any other person can make it a "gross mistake," he certainly would have better luck, than he had in framing the city charter.

The number of babies is limited +o one hundred, besides the twins, triplets, quarterns and fat babies: Two thou sand dollars will be distributed in•prizes, ladies of the highest respectability to be the judges. BILLY PAI3I3RD.—The following additional bills have been signed by the Governor' since the adjournment of the Legislature: April - 9th —An act to repeal so much of the 13th section . of an act, entitled "A supplement to the act consolidating the city of Philadel phia," passed April 21st, 1862, as relates to the widening of Fifth street, northward of York street, in said city. May 6 , 1.—A supplement to the act incorpo rating the Pennsylvania coal company. An act authorizing proceedings against , the Pennsylvania coal company, and the Delaware and Hudson canal company. homyEtaars.—The large three-story brick building at the corner of Fifth and Market streets, belonging to Messrs. Eby & Kunkle, is now under roof, and rapidly approaching com pletion. Mr. Kunkle, of the , ahoy, firm, is, also about erecting a handsome dwelling house on the site of the small two-stery brick build ing, owned by him in Market street; adjoining the property, of Mr. Cyrus J. Reese. We-also observe workmen engaged tearing out the front: of the three-story brick building owned by Mrs. Denning, a short distance above Messrs. Eby and Kunkle's new building, witlithe view of replacing it with one of ton. We presume this change is made for the purpose of•convert ing the lower part of , the building to mercan tile purpose& These improvements will add considerable to the fine appearance of that busy neighborhood. • rruE HILITAM GIOTIUS OF THE Noarn.-Since the outbreak of this war, the military genius of the North has shown itself in a thouiand' different ways,. In, a moment we transformed ourselves from a great army of laborers into a great army of soldiers. Officers stepped out of the ranks of our trades and professions, and a railroad snperinturidnot bezel:go our.Coni madd ing general, As the war progressed the inven tive genius of the country became military, and hundreds and thousands of inventions, from patent army trunks to new kinds of artillery, have added to the comforts and efficiency of our soldiery.. On the sea the same process is evi dent, and our Monitor has revolutionized all naval warfare. Ia fact, every . class of the peo ple has become military, and the military genius of the country has infused itself into almost every department of literature, trade, commerce, manufacture and art. Too LAZY TO Mouart.—We live heard of very lazy people. Men too lazy to shell corn when presented to them by charitable neighbors to keep them from starving. Men "too lazy to draw their last breath," consequently never "kicked off the mortal coil." But the laziest man we ever heard of resides In Albany. Here le an item from an Albany paper : "A well known milliner, on Washinsiton ave nue, has gone off witliv a man not her husband. It appears that she ; carried on a good business, and made considerable money. Her husband would, not wdrk at all, simply because his wife was making a good living for herself and him too. But the wife was not to be bamboossled into any euoh arrangement as that. He was well able to work, and had plenty to do, if ; he would only do it, but he wouldn't. So the other evening she wrote him a note that she had found a man who would support her. Off she went, and her husband, it is said, is so indo4 lent that he won't even mourn her loss. Very lazy man, that." A WORD IN Si.asoN.—A cotemporary very pertinently wonders what those young men do, who may be seen strolling through the streets until the midnight hour. In commenting up. on the subject, he says: "No doubt after im bibing sundry glasses of lager, etc., they feel refrained for any 'game' chance may throw in!. their way ; and tieing at the time when allyer 7 sons of propriety,are wrapped in, their slumbers, they can carry en their machinations with bolder front. Would it not be better for these young 'sparks' if they wpuld stay at home and improve their minds? Perhaps, however, they consider themselves 'Lamed snuff for their eta shun.' " These remarks apply with the same force, to . many of ova ydung men. Not content with ' stultifying themselves with intoxicating drinks, many of them spend their evenings, aye, and the "small hours," too, at places where they can learn no good. Let them take the advice of our cotemporary, make men of themselves, insteadof deatroying their health, character; and future prospects in return for that which. they falsely call pleasure. There are many of our yoring'men yrbo,.woeid be bettered by fol d Aowing thin advice ; let them attend to it.. ENEE BARRIMLURG. PA Saturday Morning, May 10, ISO SEWING MACISCEEEE.—We direct the attention of our readers to the advertisement, in another column, of Grover & Baker's Sewing Machines. We have bad one of the machines made by this firm in family use for the past two years, and cto truly recommend it as one of the best inventions of the age. It adapts itself to almost every variety of sewing, and the evenness, beau ty and durability of the stitch is worthy of all praise POOR WHISTLING.—"Speaking of bores," says a victim of one of the species, "I can scarcely imagine one capable of inflicting more misery than an intolerable whistler. I can stand a fife, when all. the -nation is armed and equipped on training day, and the dram, with its ‘flang, flans,' serve to drown its.screame ; but to lis ten to a poor air badly murdered by a poorer pucker's I : irlifer in some easier, if ,not quicker way. I always think of the French stagecoach driver, who being very much annoyed by such a bore, turned upon him: "Mine frien, vat for you all de times vissel ? You loss your leetle dog, eh ?" - EARLY WALKING!—Walking, for young and active people is by far the best exercise ; rid ing is good for the elderly, the middle-aged and invalids. The abuse of these exercises consists It taking them when the system is ex hausted more or less by previous fasting or by mental labor. Some persons injudiciously at. tempt a long walk before breakfast, under the belief that it is conducive to health. Others will get up-early to work three hours at some abstruce mental toil. The effect -in -both in stances is the same ; it substracts from the powers of exertion in the after.part of the day. A short saunter,-or some light reading before this meal, is the hest indulgence of the kind, otherwise the waste occasioned by labor must be supplied by nourishment, and the breakfast will necessarily become a heavy meal, and the whole morning's cornfort sacrificed by a weight at the chest from imperfect indigestion of food. These observations apply especially to elderly persons, who are prone to flatter themselves into the persuasion that they can use their mental or bodily powers in age as in youth.

BIRNARD, are the best Ccm- II and School Pens, without excep tion to any. They are used by all the pricipal Banks and Government Departments, Publics and Private Schools; also, by the most promi nent Commercial Houses throughout the United States and C.nada. But a short time has elapsed since C. BARNA.RD'S PENS have been introduced into the United States, still a marked preference is given them over all others for the following reasons : The " Corrugated Metal" PENS do not corrode ; they will not spatter or cut through the thinnest paper ; they have an ea y gliding motion, a certainty or equally diffusing the ink, Batmen of point, and great durability. READ THE OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. Brom the National Republican, Washington, 1). C.] AN ANTI-CORROSIVB Pss.—The universal fault of metalic pens is their tendency to corrode, so that the best of them cannot be aced but a short time. We write this notice with a pen which is entirely anti-airrosive, and the best pen we have used for five years. It is known us Barnard's Corrugated Metallic Pen : made in London, and which is now for the fuss time introduced here. 11.0 m the Philadelphia North American, Nay 6-1 We would call the attention of our (*sumer. cial friends to the "Corrugated Metal" Pens made by C. Barnard, London, as the best metal pens brought under our notice. They Ate not so liable to cOrrole, neither do they 'mit nor spatter as the ordinary steel pens. To the com mercial community they will prove quite eco nomical on account of their anti-corrosive qualities. I}ons the Philadelphia Balkan, Nay 5.] As ExcaLLENT Pas.—We can confidently re commend the Corrugated Metal Pens made by C. Barnard, of London, as mold the best metal pens we have used. They are not so liable to spatter or corrode, as the ordinary steel pens. We should judge from our own experience that they would be an excellent pen for our public schools, and to all parties to whom economy is an object, as from their anti-corrosive qualities they would be, in the end, one of the cheapest pens in use. .hom the Washington .Thtellgeneer.] A NEW Pm .—Mr. Barnard's Anti-Corrosive Pen, of which we have to-day made trial, is the beat metallic pen we have ever "taken in hand." It is as elastic, as a quill, does not corrode with ink, and glides easily over the paper. From the Montreal Gazette.] CORRUGATED CIRCULAR POINTED PENS.—These pens, manufactured by C. Barnard, Clorken well, London, are fortified by a long array of certificates in their favor, as our readers may see from our advertising columns, of ample au thority. They are free from corrosly equalities. They are certainly very pleasant to write with; A specimen shown to us runs as smoothly over the paper as -we could desire. From the Mordreal Herald.] MB take pleasure in recommending the pens made by Mr. C. Barnard, of London,England, as the very best metallic pens ever used by us.
