    THE
CLEARFIELD, JAN. 22, 1862.
, Mail Cojuicsicatios with the Rebels.
The following is an extract from a letter of
John A. Kaaion, Esq., First Assistant Post
master General,and may serve a? a final answer
to all inquiries on this subject : The facilities
afforded by sending letters to the rebel States
under flag of truce are not intended, and
cannot be permitted, to cover general corres
pondence, as it would impose a labor upon the
commanding general at Fortress Monroe, the
performance of which would be wholly incom
patible with the discbarge of his more impor
tant military duties ; but only the correspon
dence of such prisoners as may be held by the
United States or their enemies, and the fami
lies of such as may be prisoners in the rebel
States or United States. Such letters,properly
prepaid, may be forwarded direct to Old Point
Comfort. The arrangement is for the accomo
dation of prisoners on both sides.
Disposition or Fcoitivk Slaves. Some
time ago Gen. Ilooker asked Gen. McClellan
what he should dolwith 60 or CO fugitive slaves,
who were within his lines at Budd's Ferry.
Gen. McClellan replied with an order,directing
him to inquire in each case whether the fugi
tive from bondage had or had not been employ
ed in the military service of the enemy. If
lie had been, General Hooker should employ
him ; if he bad not, he should exclude him
from his lines, thus temporarily liberating biru
and leaving the final disposition of the bond
men to tbe.civil authorities. It is understood
that a similar rule will hereafter be applied in
every case occurring within the army of the
Potomac. Further than this Gen. McClellan
is believed to be unwilling to go in the absence
of other legislation than that of the July ses
sion of Congress.
Noteworthy. Mrs. Rose O. II. Greenhow,
according to the Washington correspondent
of the Philadelphia Inquirer, was found to be
in possession of political correspondence from
Jeff. (Davis, ex-President James Buchanan,
John C. Breckinridge, Joe. Lane, Yancey, and
other famous individuals. Mrs. Greenhow is
the widow of the well-known explorer, Rob
ert W. Greenhow, and posseses a handsome
person, pleasing addresses, good education,
and great conversational powers, such as gave
her a diplomatic influence of no slight magni
tude. This fashionable and dashing intriguante
was the centre of the ''gentlemanly and chiv
alric" secessionist family at the capital, her
society being much more popular with the
gentleman than the ladies, on account of her
ambitious and scheming character.
Ax other Rebel. The arrest of Wm. T.
Smithson, banker, in Washington city, is a
very important one, from the fact that he has
been communicating valuable information to
the rebels for a long time. His last communi
cation gave a detailed plan for the capture of
"Washington, the number of troops and forts
located in its vicinity, and what purported to
be the plans of General McClellan. It is stat
ed that the evidence of bis crime is so clear
and so great that he will ultimately be tried
by the military instead of the civil courts, on
the charge of being a spy.
Natiomalitt of the Volunteers. The re
port of the Sanitary Commission of the army,
acquaints us with the important fact that at
least two-thirds of the volunteers are native
Americans. This is an official refutation of
the allegations of foreign journals, tbat our
army was composed almost entirely of foreign
ers. It is true that the Germans and Irish
have - enlisted in large numbers; but in a
country composed to a great extent of men of
all nations like this, such was to be expected.
General McDowell. It is rumored in
Washington tbat on account of the ill health
of Gen. McClellan, the command of the army
of the Potomac has been temporarily assigned
to Gen. McDowell. Military men have great
confidence in the latter, notwithstanding the
reverse at Bull Run. This feeling is increas
ed by the complimentary manner in which
Gen. Beauregard has spoken of his skill in
planning the movements for the said battle.
Ohio. Gov. Todd of Ohio was inaugurated
on the 13th. His message is brief. The Gov
ernor expresses confidence in the purity and
patriotism of President Lincoln, and com
mends the determination of the President to
restore the Government to its former harmony
and vigor irrespective of the result upon tho
domestic institutions in any of the States.
f The Richmond Prisoners. On the 1 1th,
25 of the three-months men, who have been
prisoners at Richmond since the Bull Run
- fight, were paid their regular monthly allow-
ance, and tho amount due them for clothing.
No subsistence money was given them, but it
is said that they intend to apply for it. They
were discharged.
Cassius M. Clat It is stated in Washing
ton circles, that Mr. Clay is returning to take
a command in the army, as a Brigadier Gener
al. He wants to have a hand in the fight in
Kentucky. We do not wonder that any patri
ot desires to be at home at a time like this. A
Minister to Russia is only a sort of honorable
exile.
A Skirmish. On the 7th, a skirmish took
place on Jennis creek in Kentucky, between a
part of the 2d Virginia (U. S.) cavalry and a
portion of Humphrey marshall's forces under
Shaw, in which the rebels lost 6 killed, 14
wounded and 7 prisoners. Our loss was 2
killed and 1 wounded.
Gek. Patterson The Congressional Com
mittee on the War, on an examination into
Gen. Patterson case, developed facts, preju
dicial to him, and confirmatory of the public
opinion of his conduct of the campaign.
, Sailed. The Burnside expedition has an
ted from Fortress Monroe and its destination
remains as much of a mystery as ever. ' '

VULCANITE BASE FOR
ARTIFICIAL TEETH.
Attention is especially called to this article, as' a
substitute for gold in inserting teeth. Many per
sons who have tr'rd all kinds of metalic bases pre
fer this, and in those cases where it is applicable,
it will in a great measure become a substitute for
gold, silver or platina. Its chief advantages are,
cheapness, lightness and perfect adoption to the
mouth ; it having a soft fleshy feel to the parts of
the mouth with which it comes in contact.
A.M. Hills is prepared to put up teeth on the
Vulcanite Base, with Goodyear's Patent Gum,
which is the only reliable prcperation, and can
only be had through their regular agents.
Dr. Hills will always be found in his office on
Friday and Saturday, unless notice appears to the
contrary, in the town papers, the previous week.
NEW-YORK TRIBUNE NEW VOLUME
On the seventh of September, 1861, THE
NEW-YORK WEEKLY TRIBUNEcommenced the
twenty-first year of its existence; the THE DAI
LY TRIBUNE being some months older and THE
SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE somewhat younger.
For more than twenty years, this journal has la
bored in what its conductors have felt to be the
cause of Humanity, Justice and Freedom, endeav
oring to meliorate the condition of the oppressed
and unfortunate, to honor and encourage useful
exertion in whatever sphere, and, to promote by
all means the moral, intellectual and material ad
vancement of our country. It has aimed to be
right rather than popular, and to espouse and
commend to-day the truth that others may not be
willing to accept till to-morrow. In pursuing
this course, mistakes have doubtless been made
and faults committed ; but, having in all things
incited our readers to think and judge for them
selves rather than adopt blindly our own or oth
ers' conclusions, we believe we may fairly claim
for this journal the credit of having qualified its
readers to detect and expose even its own errors.
To develop the minds of the young by the mvst
general, thorough and practical Education, and to
encourage and stimulate Productive Industry,
through free grants of Public Lands to actual set
tlers and cultivators, as also through the protec
tion of immature or peculiarly exposed branches
from too powerful foreign competition, are among
the aims to which this journal has adhered
through good and evil report, and which it stead
fastly commends to American patriotism and
philanthropy.
As to the Civil War now devastating our coun
try, we hold it to have originated in a Rebellion
more wanton, wicked, inexcusable, then was ev
er before known a Rebellion in the interest of
the few against the many a Rebellion designed
to raise higher the walls of caste and tighten the
chains of oppression. Having done all we could
without a surrender of vital principle to avoid
this War and witnessed the forbearance, meek
ness, and long-suffering with which the Federal
Government sought to avert its horrors, we hold
it our clear duty, with that of every other citizen
to stand by the nation and its fairly chosen ru
Iers, and to second with all our energies their ef
forts to uphold the Union, the Constitution, and
the supremacy of the laws. And, though the Re
bellion has become, through usurpation. deception,
terroism, and spoliation, fearfully strong, we be
lieve the American Republic far stronger, and
tha t the unanimous, earnest efforts of loyal hearts
and hands will insure its overthrow. But on all
questions affecting the objects, the scope, and du
ration of this most extraordinary contest, we de
fer to those whom the American People have
clothed with authority, holding unity of purpose
and of action indispensable in so grave an emer
gency In a crisis like the present, our columns must
be largely engrossed with the current history of
the War for the Union, and with elucidations of
its more striking incidents. We shall not, how
ever, remit that attention to Literature, to For
eign Affairs, to Agricultural Progress, to Crops,
Markets, Ac., which has already, we trust, won for
THE TRIBUNE an honorable position among its
cotemporaries. Our main object is and shall be
to produce a comprehensive newspaper, from
whieh a careful reader may glean a vivid and
faithful history of the times, not merely in the do
main of Action but in that of Opinion also. As
our facilities for acquiring information increase
with years, we trust that an improvement in the
contents of our journal is perceptible, and that,
in the variety and fulness of intelligence afford
ed, we may still hope to make each day a critio
on the last." In this hope, we solicit a conttnu
ance of the generous measure of patronage hith
erto accorded to our journal.
