''3'he Influence of Victory on Southern Ecotimatc of Northern Valor and Virtue. There has always been and still is a class of man in the South, who have succeeded in maintaining a controiling social and political influence over the masses in that section, by depreciating and misrepresenting Northern valor and virtue. The class to which we allude is composed of the most useless, intolerant, desperate, and yet most able men in the Southern States. They are what are esteemed as the "ruling class" of the slave States. They possess the land and own "the niggers," facts in their opinion, rendering them vastly su perior to "the poor white trash" by whom they are surrounded. By these landed and "niggered" (if we may be allowed the term) aristocrats, the masses of the South hwie been taught that the white laboring men and me- chanies of the North, were the most miser able, depraved, cowardly catiffs in Christen dom. Everything evil in social attribute was connected with free labor. The Northern masses were stigmatised either as brutes or idiots, and to such a degree had "the rulers'' of the South misrepresented the organization of Northern society, labor and business, that the Southern people actually began to regard the North as destined and decreed for their conquest. Only when this feeling had been deeply rooted in the Southern heart, did the leading conspirators risk the precipitation of the rebellion. And after these despera does had precipitated rebellion, they found it necessary to add, whenever our soldiers fought with gallantry and courage, that it was the mere exhibi- tion of brute force—that it was the impulse of fiends, and that the South must treat all captured Yankees as if they were outlaws who had forfeited all right to humane considera tion. It is not necessary for us to indicate how faithfully the Southern masses have lived up to this direction in the treatment of Fed eral soldiers prisoners in the South. The annals of barbarism or cannabalism contain nothing to equal the brutality of the rebels. But it is not this, particularly, to which we desire now to direct attention. Suddenly and as if by magic, Southern estimate of Northern valor and virtue has been changed. Our brave soldiers are now no longer described as brutes. Even staunch Ben Butler begins to assume a shape attractive 'to the Southern Vision. The victories which we are winning are set down as results attained only after the test of manly courage, and at length we have the stern adMission wrung from the heart of chivalry, that the detested Yankee is a magnaz i imous foe. The morning that Gen. Sherman triumphantly entered Savannah, the rebel organs in that city, after prudently counselling submission to Sherman's conquest of the city, eloquently add that the people who were non-combatants, could trust with confidence for the safety of their lives and property, to the magnanimous foe! To use a common expression, that's as true as preach ing, and it is time the poor and misera My duped people of' the 'South trust to the magnanimous foe. When they do so, the South will be restored to peace, and the bleging of a good Government once more vouchsafed to the people thereof. And when this peace is inaugurated, as we believe it speedily will be, and the Southern masses are brought nearer in contact with the free, intelligent and enterprising mechanic and laboring white men of the loyal States, they will be convinced not only of the magnanim ity of their foes, but of the superiority, in all which'leads to a nation's greatness and glory, of the Northern over the Southern masses. It is this knowledge fairly promulgated and ex hibited by the splendid triumphs of Northern society, among the people of the South, that will hereafter cement the bonds of Union by exciting generous rivalries among all sections for prosperity. Southern treason was in tensified by Southern ignorance. But as intelligence is spread and increased in the slave States by the victories of the national Government, the South will some day become the executioner of the men who have led its people over so many bloody paths, iu the hope of making rebellion the means of estab lishing a despotism. A GREAT Boum —The Chicago Times is re• joking over the prospect of an abundant sup ply of i pure water to be obtained from "arte sitdi Nvells" in that vicinity. It is said that a company boriuk for oil struck a stream of water which has risen to the surface, deluging the prairie in the vicinity. It is estimated that the well discharges 400 gallons per min ute, 24,000 per hour, or 5'76,000 per day,which is considerably more than that discharged by the famous artesian well at Grenelle, near Paris—which has heretofore produced the largest volume of water of .any well in the world. It is purposed if the water amtdd prove suitable for drinking and culinary pur poses, to abandon the Lake tunnel and sink artesian wells for the purpose of supplying the city with pure water. Gow IN RICHMOND.—GoId in Richmond is now at a premium of 4,000 per cent., or forty _dollars for one, having advanced since the de feat of the peace candidate at the North for the Presidency from about 2,400 per cent, to its present figure. . The same causes which produce depreciation in the italic of rebel currency operates to produce appreciation in the value of national currency. A Copperhead Preacher in Trouble. We learn from one of our Dayton, (0.,) German exchanges, that a Rev. Mr. Steel, pastor of a Lutheran church in that locality; bad gotten himself in a serious difficulty by the exhibition of his copperheadism. Steels course in the pulpit had become so utterly obnoxious, and he had indulged in such un pri _ ovoked abuse of the Government and loyal Men, that the Christian and patriotic portion of his congregation refused longer to tolerate him, and he accordingly was compelled to abandon his pulpit, when he repaired to a pub lic hall in Dayton to harangue traitors. To show the character of Steek's actions and uphold ers, it is only necessary that the faction to which he catered was headed and controlled by the traitor Vallandigham, who took his seat near the pulpit and applauded as Steek hilmi • nated treason in the disguise of the gospel. —Oar Du:master friends have some knowl edge of this man Steek, as he formerly preached in that city, and was, we believe, ejected from his pulpit there on account of his rebel propensities. It now appears that the loyal Christians of Dayton, Ohio, have re pudiated the traitor pastor and by this repu diation the loyal Lutherans of our sitter city are amply vindicated in their course towards this same tory. Fersons who have not paid their income tax, on the ground that they have never been called on for anything of the kind, are told in Washington to bear in mind that the law makes it imperative on them to make the re turn of the same, as is shown by the following extract from the act of Congress on the sub- "It shall be the duty of all persons of lawful age, and all guardians and trustees, to nine return in the list of schedule as provided in this act, to the proper officer of internal rev enue, or the amount of hia or her income; and in case of neglect or refusal to make such return, the assessor or assistant assessor shall assess the amount of his or her income." The act of Congress,' approved June 30th, 1864, makes the same provision—that parties shall make return to the assessor or assistant assessor; and under both acts parties who neglect or refuse to_ make returns, are liable to prosecirion for attempting to defraud the Goverronent. GEN. HURLBUT ON THE AMERICAN FLAG. Maj . Gen. Hurlbut, coimanding at New Or leans, has issued a good order. Having heard that parties directing an orphans' fair in New Orleans has ordered the American flag to be taken down, he responded with the follow ing, directed to Provost Marshal Colonel R Robinson: HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE GULF, Nnw ORLEANS, Dec. 14, 1864. I learn that a loyal lady was directed by some of the managers at a fair for the bene fit of St. Vincent's Asylum to take down the American flag as a political symbol. You will inform these managers that the American flag is a symbol of the sovereignty of the na tion under whose protection they are. As an appropriate vindication of this unseemly in sult, you will cause the American flag to be displayed over the principal entrance within the hall. It the managers of the fair object to this, the fair will be closed. If any person shall show any disrespect to the National colors, when displayed, such persons shall at once be arrested. Your prompt attention to this matter is required. S. A. HURLJ3UT, Major General Commanding. To H. Rosrssoli.

V., CAMP Fiona, 13Loonx BEN, Dec. 23;1864. EDITOR TELEGIRAPH:—In justice to this com pany-I propose to write a communication, brief, plain and artless, for your paper. We are away up here on the border amid continu ity of mountains and perpetual blow—storms . without a passable "penciler by the way side" or tolerable essayist to advise the public in relation to our health, condition, services and times generally I don't write to puff the men for their good will or the commission for their privileges. To commend a company not deserving, or laud an individual devoid of personal merit and intrinsic worth, is despi. cable and dishonest; but to reward merit and extol impartial, prompt, efficient officers ac cords with right and equity. If an officer is bad he will get the censure of my pen. If good he will get its praise. Whenever and wherever worth and merit appears, my enco miums attend, and demerit my condemnation visits, simply for the earnest reason, that it is glorifying the golden rule and complying with the divine injunction, "Render unto every man that which belongs him." We reached this place on or about the 21st of September, detached from the regiment for the purpose of arresting conscripts and deserters in this and the adjacent counties.-- Up to this date, we have nabbed and sent to Chambersburg about two companies of these slippery skulkers, which, in my humble opin ion, is driving a right brisk trade, especially when the mountainous condition of the coun try traveled over is considered. Hills and ridges almost as high as the pyramids of Egypt and caves thicker than the iroo around Pharaoh. While we don't have to face smoking cannons dr stand guard on dangerous posts, we have to climb steep, stony, craggy mountains, in all Ends of weather, till our shoes are soleless, clothes ragged and limbs twisted and aching severely. It is no pleasant job to walk eight or ten Miles of a night through rain and cold, over rough,rocky roads, and have no better bed than a bundle of hay of crooked board. Do not infer from this that 'N-e complain or murmer far from it; we glory in doing well our part, and while we re fer to hardships endured such reference is not in the spirit of despondency, but in the pride of success. Oar boys laugh at obstacles and make steppirigzstnnes of failures to brighter success. As an instance of their sharpness and vigialnce, a squad of twelve arrested in three nights, at a little town called Chaney villa, seventeen miles - south-west of camp, thirteen conscripts without firing a single shot or creating a particle of alarm. No company in the national service on siroilar duty can produce a hatter record. We challenge its , • equal. It is business that has to be studied, and requires practice. Our boys are up telt; they know the country tolerably well, and are always ready to go out. I dare assert, if the authorities grant us reasonable time, we will clean out the district and furnish Uncle Sam with all the human fuel he wants from these quarters of his kingdom to keep up the national fire. I have mentioned only one instance where the boys made a big haul in a short time, and displayed their courage and watch fulness, but could easily bring up a score of like cases. Suffice it to say, the men on all tramps and expeditions after these southern auxiliaries, as well as in camp, conduct them selves soldier-like, orderly and obedient. Honorable in their intercourse, temperate in habits, respectful to superiors and faithfully prompt in the performance of all their duties. It is amusing to accompany a squad when they go after one of the loud-mouthed frater nity, who has sworn, time and again, he never would be taken, could clear out a regiment of blue coats, would kill the first one who en tered his gate, and a hundred other boastful expressions, just to see the change which sud denly operates on his system tho.moment he levels a glance at the bayonets. His eye balls roll like a vast panorama, and knee-pans rattle like alabasters in a green gourd. All his boasted bravery steams away and his rustic old cranium dodges around like pump kins in a thunder storm. Levity aside, we are prospering finely and growing fat. The health of the company is remarkably good, only one or two complain ing. Have abundant grub, warm clothes and comfortable houses. So our friends need have no anxiety about us, for our ways are ways of pleasantness and all our paths are peace. Our enjoyment and satisfaction are increased by the happy fact that John T. Ensminger is our Captain, a prompt, impartial, ihorough officer. loved by all his men, and respected by all who cultivate his acquaintance. No officer stands higher in the estimation of his men. He is worthy of promotion, and we hope he will be successful in rising to a higher po sition. Our pleasant and unassuming Lieutenant Myers returned last week from Chambers burg. He was welcomed by the soldiers. Three hearty, willing cheers went up from camp on the reception of the joyful newathat our good and kind Major John T. Morgan was appointed to the command of the Juniata Department. Never ivas promotion more richly deserved. He left us with the good will and gratitude of every man. By his kind ness, integrity and impartiality he won our esteem. May he prosper in his new field is our fond hope. Until nature is lost in decay and the moon turned to blood, this company will hold in grateful memory and lasting grat itude the name of John S. Morgan. With this tribute to a good man, I close.

DEPARTMENT, WASHIrtth'ON, December 28. The following extracts from Itichtuond pa pers of to-day have been received by the War Department: "FROM SOUTTISS'ESTEIiN VIEGINIA." The Lynchburg Virginian has the following additional in relation to the capture of the Saltworks announced officially on yesterday: "We had been led to hope that these im portant works were safe, but the source from which their reported capture comes leaves us no room to doubt its correctness. They were occupied by the enemy on Tuesday, the 20th inst., and held by them" until Thursday, when they retreated towards Bristol. We hear that the place was held by about 300 reserves, un der Col. Preston, the most of whom escaped. "The works are reported to be but little damaged, and •we understand that persons who have visited them since their occupation by the enemy think they can be put in work ing order again by the first of February.l A largo quantity of salt already taken out %vas destroyed, and all the buildings on the place were burned. Several pieces of artillery were also captured by them, but they got but little else of any kind. General Breckinridge was at last accounts at Saltville,preparing to follow the enemy in his retreat. "Continued skirmishing with their rear guard occurs. No further fighting has taken place than that already reported. A gentle man who passed over the-railroad-from. -Bris tol to Glade Spring, after the enemy advanc ed, says the bridges between these places are sitbnrned, but the track is uninjured."

UMBER OF PRISONERS CAPTURED FORTRESS MONROE, Dec. 27, P. M., t VIA W.SEINGTON, Dec. 28. I have just arrived here on the steamer Santiago de Cuba, Captain Glisson, from off Wilmington . The attack by our fleet on Fort Fisher, commanding the entrance to Cape Fear river, commenced at. noon on Saturday last, the 24th inst., and continued throughout the entire day. It was resumed again on Sunday, and kept up with great -vigor all day. Fort Fisher was much damaged. All the barracks and storehouses belonging to the work were burned by the explosion of our shells, and the garrison of .the fortification was driven to the protection of their bomb proofs, the guns of the enemy scarcely ven turing a reply to MIT well-directedhot. A small portion of our troops' were landed on the beach from the transports on Sunday afternoon, and skirmishing with the enemy ensued, our men behaving , with great gal lantry, pushing up to Fort Fisher, and actu ally entering the work. A rebel bearer of dis patches, who was about entering the fort, was killed by a. shot from one of our men, and Lieutenant Wallen, of the One Hundred and Forty-second New York regiment, captured a rebel flag from the outer bastion of Fort Picker, Our men also captured a whole battalion of the enemy who were outside of their works, but our forces were withdrawn froth the shore. When the Santiago de Cuba left the scene of operations the bombardment of the rebel works was still continued by our fleet. On Sunday the sailors from the Santiago de cube captured the Pound Hill Battery of six ty-five men on shore, and brought the whole party off to the ships. The torpedo boot was successfully exploded on Saturday morning at two o'clock, but with what result it is not known. The weather has been the most violent ever experienced off this portion of the coast. At Newbern and Roanoke Island the oldest in habitant state they never knew such storms to occur as ha l ve lately been felt in this vicinity. DESCRIPTION OP THE TORPEDO VESSEL. The following description of the torpedo boat, referred to in the above dispatch, was furnished by our correspondent in one of his earliest letters, but its publication withheld for prudential reasons: While the vessels which are to make the at tack are about twelve miles from shore a ves sel named the Louisiana, prepared for the purpose, loaded with three hundred tons of gun powder, is to steam rapidly in shore and beach directly in front of Fort Fisher. The crew, after she has beached, and the fuse has been fired, are to take to their small boat and stand out for the fleet, the fuse being so timed as to permit sufficient time for the officers and crew charged with this perilous undertaking to get beyond the reach of the effects of the awful explosion which must ensue, should the plan prove a ; stwess. The explosion of such a mammoth torpedo —for the vessel will be in reality a torpedo on a grand it is believed, produce such a concussion as to greatly damage the fort and paralyze the garrison. It is a ques tion, hOwever, inasmuch as the fort is an earthwork, whether the concussion resulting from such an unheard of explosion will have any serious effect upon ramparts so construct ed. Ne doLibt if they were of masonry the effect might, be counted upon with more cer tainty. No doubt, however, it will at least greatly "astonish the natives" in general in that part of rebeldom, and the garrison in particular, and unless they are something more than militiamen, will cause a stampede in, shore. Meanwhile: the fleet with steam up and the transports with troops are to be twelve miles distant—the latter that distance up the coast --and as soon as the explosion takes place all will steam rapidly forward to the points "designated in the chart plan furnished to the commanders of the fleet by Admiral Porter. The transports will land the troops at a point up the coast as near as possible, and after the fleet have silenced the fort march against it. There is a small fort or water battery, called Holf-Moon Battery, some three or four miles above Fort Fisher, and this work will probably first be silenced by the iron-clads, and the troops landed there. It appears now that the gunboat which was supposed by the rebels to have grounded and was blown up was not a regular Union gun boat, but an old boat filled with gunpowder and sent to Within three hundred yards of the fort for the purpose of being exploded, in the hope that the concussion would destroy the foundations of the rebel works. If the report of the explosion was heard at Newbern, a distance of one hundred miles, as reported, it will be very strange if no damage was done to the fort. . CINCINNATI, Dec. 29 The Wilmington Expedition. WASHINGTON, Dee. 28. It would seem to be a mistake, as reported this morning, that the naval and military feet has returned from North Carolina to Fortress Monroe. • The Navy Department has no intelligence. but that one vessel only yesterday returned to the latter place, bringing. dispatches from Admiral Porter. The messenger has not yet reached Washington. It is ascertained from an authentic source, however, under date of Fortress Monroe, December 27th, that the powder ship was exploded within three hundred yards of Fort Fisher about 2 o'clock A. at on -the 24th inst. , _ Later in the day Admiral Porter attacked the fort and adjacent defences, and. renewed the bombardment on Christmas day. On each occasion we drove the reels from their guns to the shelter of the bombproof, so as to effectually silence their firing. In a very few minutes after the frigates and heavy ships got into position a detachment of troops landed on Sunday afternoon .and skir mishers pushed rip gallantly to the fort under cover of our fire. Some of the men actually entered the works and brought off the flag. The .bombardment by the fleet continued on Monday. The Santiago de Cutoa, captured a company of North Carolina soldiers in the outworks, and brought _ them off. • Appointment of Naval Agent. PpruamktaL, Dec.

"The latest official advices from Georgia in dicate that Sherman has already followed up the occupation of Savannah by sending a force of cavalry,' artillery and infantry upon an ex pedition whose destination can only be guessed at from the direction in which it has moved. These troops are reported to have gone to wards the Altamaha river, and we shall no doubt next hear that they have crossed that stream and are moving to Southwest Georgia in quest of the prisoners of war who were supposed to be at Andersonville. "Sherman's programme for his grand cam paign northward appears to be no secret. He will start from Port Royal and move straight for Branchville—the point of junction be tween the Georgia and Carolina railways— and he thenproposes to follow the main line of railroads towards_ Virginia, stealing and murdering as much as he can by the way.
