Coxti.vestai. Monthly. We hare before us
the second number of a new work, called the
"Continental Monthly," which bids fair to bo
a work of great merit. It is an independent
journal, edited by Charles J. Leland, and - de
voted to Politics, Literature, etc, See pros
pectus, under the head of "New Advertise
ments." W ill the publisher please forward us
the first pnniber?
Thk Weather During the past week the
air has been rather moderate, the sun shining
quite pleasant during several days. Yesterday
( Tuesday ) wa3 quite winterish again, snowing
at intervals during the day. The hauling is
good, and the timber is being placed on the
banks of the streams with a good will, and we
hope the owners will be liberally rewarded lor
fur their labor and investments.
A Chance. By reference to our advertising
columns,it will be seen that A. B. Long & Sons,
desiro to sell their steam Saw-mill and other
property in 03ceola, in this county. Lumber
can be taken to market by water or railroad,
equally convenient ; as the lumber can be run
o(f the mill to the track ot the Tyrone and
Clearfield Railroad or on to the bank of Mo
shannon creek. Persons desirous of going
into the lumbering business would do well to
examine the property and location ; as it pos
sesses, perhaps, more advantages than any other
situation in this county at present.
Ci re for Stammering. Tne following from
"Lewis' Journal of Physical Culture," may
prove of value to some of the stammering
fraternity: The secret is simply this. The
stammerer is made to mark the time in his
speech, just as it is ordinarily done in singing.
lie is at first to beat on every syllable. It is
best at first lesson to read simple composition,
like enj of David's Psalm's, striking the finger
en the knee at every word ; then read in a
newspaper, beating each syllable. Soon you
need only beat on every word. You can beat
time by striking the finger on the knee, by
simply hitting the thumb against the fore
finger, or moving the largo toe in the boot. I
doubt if the worst case of stuttering could
continue long, provided the sufferer would
read an hour or two each day, with thoroi
practice of this simple act, observing the sarno
iu conversation.

Important War News.
AXOTRER.ERILUANT' VICTORY.
Fort Eenry(3ebel)on. the Tennesco River taken
by seven gunboats
On Thursday the Ctli of February, the gun
boats Essex, Commander Porter; C.irondolet,
Com. Walker, Cincinnati, Com. Stembel ; St.
Louis Lieut. Com.. Paulding ; Taylor, Lieut.
Com. Guinn ; Conestoga, Lieut. Com. Phelps;
Lexington, Lieut. Com. Shirk ; advauced bold
ly against the rebel works. The boats went
to the right of Painter Creek Island, immedi
ately above which on the east shore stand the
rebel fortifications ; by which movement they
kept out of range of the rebel guns until they
reached the head of the Island, and within
one mile of the enenj'. Every man was at
his quarters, and every ear was strained to
catch the flag-officer's signal gun for the
commencement of the actiou. The Cincinnati
opened the ball, and the others followed suit.
The enemy, not backward, gave an admirable
response. Our bouts advanced steadily, re
ceiving and returning storms of shot and shell,
until getting within three bunndred yards of
of the enemy's works, they came to a stand,
when they poured a fire into them right and
left, and with god effect.
The fight was commenced at 12.30, and after
an engagement of one hour and a. quarter the
enemy struck their colors and sncli cheering,
and such excitement as seiged the throats,
arms and caps of the 4 or 500 seamen of
the boats can be better immagincd that de
scribed. Alter the surrender, which was
made to flag-ollicer Foote by Gen. Tilghman,
who defended the fort in a most determined
manner, we were informed that the rebel in
fantry encamped outside the fori numbering
lour or live thousand had cut and run, leaving
only the artillery company in command of 'he
fort.; The infantry left everything in their
flight, including a targe aud valuable quantity
of ordnance stores.
The fort mounted twenty guns and seven
teen mortars, mostly 32 und 31 pounders rua
being a magnificent 10-inch Columbia I. Our
shots dismounted two of their guns, and one
of their rifled 32 pounders bur.sted during the
action. Their gunners claim to have Dut
eleven effective guns worked. Their Ions in
the f.Tt was live killed and ten badly wounded.
The prisoners are Geii. Floyd Tilghman and
staff, aud sixty men.
Gen. 'iilghman, it is said, is dishcartcd, and
thinks this one of tho must damaging Mows of
the war. In surrendering to flag-officer Foote
the rebel General remarked. "I am glad to
surrender to so gallant an ollioer." Flag-officer
Foote replied, "you do perfectly right, sir, in
surrendering ; but you should have blown rny
boats out of water before I would have surren
dered to you."
In the engagement the Cincinnati was in the
lead, and, living the Mag-officer s penanf, was
the chief wan;. 1 lag-olhcer r oote and Cap
tain Stembel crowded her defiantly into the
teeth of the enemy's guns. She got
one shots, some of them going compl
through her. Ihe Lsse-X was badly cr
when about half through the fight, anil crowd
ing steadily against the enemy, a ball went
into her port side forward port, through a
heavy bulk head, and squarely through one of
the boilers, and the escaping steam scalding
and killing several of the crew. Capt. Por
ter, his aid, is. P. Britton. Jr., and Paymaster
Lewis were standing in a direct line of the
ball's passing. Britton being in the centre of
the group, a shot struck him on the top of his
head, scattering his brains in everv direction
The escaping steam went into the pilot house,
instantly killing f old and Pride, tho pilots
lucre were six seamen killed on llic hssi-x,
'and two officers and 17 men wounded, and fivo
missing.' The Cincinnati had one kilted and
six wounded. No casualties on the other
boats though the shot and shell fell upon them
like hail. Not a man flinched, and with cheer
upon cheer, sent shot and shell among the en
emy. Our whole loss is D killed, 20 wounded,
and o missing. ;
Our gunboats proceeded on up the river to
the roilroad bridge, which they partly destroy
ed, so as to prevent the passage of trains. On
their way they captured eight G pounder brass
cannon, in escelleut order.
The property that lell into the hands of the
Lmon men is valued at 5 1,000.01)0.
it is said that tho Curnsido fleet is still at
Ilatteras that the vessels are all over the
bar that WOO troops had landed an 1 that a
forward movement would be made. A rumor
states, that the rebels bad offered to evacuate
Roanoke Island on condition that Elizabeth
city should not be attacKcd. Later advices
state that the fleet had moved f orward. The
latest is from rebels sources, which state that
the fleet had made an attack upon Poanoke
Island and that the Yankees were twice re
pulsed. This needs confirmation.
Un the morning ot tne tn loi. i rieaman s
cavalrv, went out in the direction of Fail fax
Court House for the purpose of capturing the
rebel pickets. They swept the country for
some five miles along the lino and two miles
beyond the Court House, driving in all the
rebel pickets, save thirteen, whom they cap
tured and brought in, as well as a wagon and
some horses arid rifles. One rebel was killed.
Two of our men were wounded.
A rebel dispatch from Knoxville states that
on Sunday the 2d, White's Tennesseejcavalry
encountered a force of Lincoln's infantry in
Morgan county, Tennessee, estimated at from
one to tnrue nuuurcu, on ine mountain siue
White charged on the enemy, who were ral
lied twice by Capt. Duncan, when he was shot
down. The Kentucky Unionists were then
completely routed and fled in confusion, leav
ing seven dead.
From the west we learn that, after the re
duction of Fort Henry, our forces continued
up the river and. took possession of the Ohio
and Tennessee Railroad thcrely cutting ofF
th rebel communication with Memphis. Our
forces reduced several batteries uu their way
up the river, and took possesion of the bridge
over the Tennessee river.
The Southern confederacy have ordered that
all free negroes who do not volunteer shall be
impressed into the public service, and a Pe
tersburg ("a.,) paper congratulates itself that
nearly all the free negroes in that vicinity
have volunteered. They have Ilobson's choice
go willingly or be forced.
On the 0th Gen. Lander, who had , been re
inforced to about fcOOO, marched upon the en
emy at Komnej'. The rebels hail about an
equal force, but they declined fighting and re
treated across the river, destroying the wire
bridge in their rear. Gen. Lander is now in
possession of Romney.
From Kentucky we learn that uen. l nomas
is about moving forward, and will invade East
Tennessee at three dillerent points simulta
neously, and advance on Knoxville take pos
session of Ihe railroad t.iereiiy cutting on
supplies and communication with the rebel
government.
From Washington wo learn, that the Joint
Special Committee on tho conduct of the
War have requested the President to restore
Gen. John C. Fremont to a command befitting
his rank and abilities.
On the 1st a small body of the enemy were
dispersed at Bolivar, on the Upper Potomac,
by a few shell from a battery on the Maryland
side.
From Richmond, by way of Fortress Monroe,:
we learn that icA serious riot occurred, jn
iticnmonct on Tuesday night, 2d Feb. which
was so extensive and dangerous that it was
1 eared that the city would be placed under
martial law. During the excitement persons
'iciu-iiearu entering tor the Union.". ;
Received by Tuesday Evening's Slail.
A persons calling himself Dr. Ives, (a native
of a retel State and who has a brother in the
rebel army), pretending to be a special rep
resentative of the A". P. Herald, has been ar
rested and is held in close custody at Fort
McIIenry as a spy. On thj 8th instant he in
truded himself into the War Department, and
insoleutly made threats to the Assistant Sec
retary, of the hostility of the Herald against
the administration of the Department, unless
he was afforded special privileges and furnish
ed with information in respect to cabinet con
sultations, telegrams, official communications,
and all uews, iu advance ol all other papers.
For these, and other reasons, he was arrested
and imprisoned, by order of Sec. Stanton.
Brigadier Gen. C. P. Stone was arrested at
2 o'clock on Sunday morning the 9th, at his
residence in Washington city, aud sent to Fort
Lafayette by the afternoon train. The sub
stance of the charges against him are : For
misbehavior at the battle of Ball's Bluff hold
ing correspondence with the enemy before and
sino that battle receiving visits from rebel
officers in his camp and treacherously de
signing to expose his force to capture by the
enemy, under pretence of an order for a
movement. A court martial will.be speedily
ordered.
From Missouri, wo have intimations that an
important combined movement is to take place
toward the enemy. Gens. Sigel and Ash
botirs Divisions had reached Lebanon, forty
miles from Springfield. Price is said to have
told his troops that they were surrounded, and
must figt:t or surrender. They chose the for
mer. The rebel chief has been, it is said,
heavily leinforced Irom Arkansas.
1 rom .Norfolk we learn that the rebel steam-
ram Merrimac, which was expected to deinol
ish the Union fleet at the Roads, turns out a
failure. It-appears that she sinks doun too
low in the water, being 2!0 tuns heavier than
ner adaptors counted iinon. Hence she is
good lur nothing except as a stationary bat
tery.
r rom renei sources we learn, that the en
gagement at Koanoke Island still continues,
and that the Federals had sunk one or two
Confederate gunboats. Some later news was
received at Norfolk, but w:is not communicat
ed to our boat at Fo-tress Monroe.
