A late intercepted letter from a rebel officer speaks significantly of anticipated open rebellion in Mary land. The letter is regarded, however, as one cf the means resorted to by rebel leaders to dupe their fol lowers. At Fredericksburg there were few troops, and they were falling back toward Richmond. Citizens stated that the Confederate Government intended to aban don Virginia. W.4mscTox. April 6.

Tbe debt, then, has grown during the last six and a htlf months, at tbe rate of Sl.CCl.UU'J a day ! It is a large 6ure, for it represents the cost o maintain ing our Union. The people would cheerfully tear that it be doubled, while such brave progress toward the accomplishment of the end in view is reported by every mail. R assia is at present attempting to found a tecond SebaMopol iu the North Pacific Ocean on the two little isiands called North and South T;uiini, geo graphically belutigiug l tne Archipelago of Japan. The islands are inhabited by som thirty thousand people, and though ruled by a Japanese governor, has been occupied by the Russiaus, who have erecleJ fortifications and hoisted the Russian flag. The rebel volunteer system has proved a failure. Many regiments whose tune is nearly up look forward with anxiety for the expiration of their term of service. The Richmond Examiner regards this fact with ap prehension. That journal strongly advocates the adoption of measures not to allow these rebel volun teers to return home, but recommends that a com manding system be adopted ; that is, to make the rebel soldiers remain in service, nolens culent. A great exhibition is to take place in France in lSG'j. in which every attempt will be made to outstrip all that may have leeit done previous to that time. Sir Joseph Paxton, it is said, bas been retained by tbe imperial government, and a crystal palace of unheard tf proportions will rise ou an elevated spot near St. Cloud.

Sherman, commander of the L'niou army now ia South Carolina, was a New England lad ol limited pecuniary tne ins. When he first visited Wellington to obtain admission to West Point he walked the hole distance from his father's bouse in Raode Island to the national capital. That long, tedijus march revealed qualities which ensured his success with Geu. Jackson, who was then President. The old hero had wunderlul insight into character, and iu this instance was uol mistaken in bis tuan. The London Timet' Turin correspondent writes that on ttie evenitig of the loth inst., at Bologna, a gang of about 40 malefactors, some- of them iu the disguise of carbineers or gendarmes, and of guards of public securitr, or olicetnen, effected their en trance into the railway station, and tying up the company's servants with ropes, carried away, over powering all resistance, a sum of one hundred thou sand francs, ttliieh lay there by chance, nnd of which in all probability, they bad obtained clandes tine knowledge. Miss J. Gougenheim, the well known actress, has given the patrons of Sunday theatricals rather a remarkable rebuke, by refusing to play at a San Francisco theatre Sunday nights.

It seems strange to read of a naval victory in the heart of a great continent, seven hundred miles from the large Undies of water which are the usual scene of such conflicts. Vet the succe-s of Fort Henry was a naval victory. Here we have a number of gun boats heavily armed. acending a river in the very centre of the United States, attacking a strong earth work at close quarters, and coming off victorious. Foreigners will find it difficult to believe that such operations are possible on inland rivers, which are generally of email dimensions in Europe. IssTRrcTioss to Gfseral Shebmas. The Wash ington Republican of Situnlay says : We are giad to learn lhat on Thursday AJjutaat-General Thomas sent out instructions to General Sherman, io Beaufort, to take possession of all the crops on the Island cot ton, corn rice, &c. on military account, and ship the cotton, and such other crops as were not wanted for the army, to New York, to be sold there for account of the government ; also to ue LCgro slaves to gather and secure the crops of cotton and corn, and to erect his defences at Port Royal and other .l 1 1 rtn the ii1tnd. j The instructions, so far as negroes are concerned. I carry out the principles of the original instructions I under which General Sherman started on theexpedi I tion. acd which aere so generally approved by the i country. They seem to us to W. in all respect. eonnently wise. It is better Ir tne negroes to oe employed than to be idle, and in this ctse tbeit labor will save valuable crops, which would otherwise be nearly a total loss. By tbe laws of war, all property of the enemy, public and private, is forfeited to the victor. What ever ia spared, is spared upon considerations of cle mency or policy.

In July last France failed to pay the i-13.000. j But he had made sale of the franchise- to John A. Morris, aho paid Ihe SIS.O 0 over to the State in : October, nearly four months after it was due. The quet:cn arose whether the acceptance of th's money after it was due would be a waiver on the part of the ' State of its right tf forfeiture. But the legal opin ' i'-n is that though Morris might be the assignee of j Franre. yet France oaed the money to he State when : Morris purchased the franchise, and the subsequent : payment did not relieve the franchise of its liability : to be declared void, arising from the detention of the money beyond the day of payment. j The Barefooted Printer Boy. Some thirty years ago a barefooted boy floated down the Soq'ieuaiina : ou an humble raft, nnd arrived at Harris). urg. He i came from the North, and beloue I to a large family; j all his worldly goods were tied up in a little pocket ! handkerchief. He sought aud obtained employment 1 in a printing-! flice ns an apprentice. From an ap ' prentice to a journey man, from a journeyman to a ' reporter, from a reporter to an editor, the printer ' loy wotked his way, airainst obstacles which the . suffering poor only know.

I Missionaries Murdered ix China By recent . accounts from China, we have intelligence of the death, by violeuce, of two American missionaries, Messrs. Holmes and P.nker. Mr. Holmes, we under stand, was connected with Ihe Southern Biptis: Board ol Missions; Mr. Parker with the Episcopal , Mission. Che Foo, the city near which they were slain, is one of the ports opened by the late treaty; , it is on the coast to the north of Shanghae, nnd in ', the province of Shantung. The ciicutnstances leading to their being slain f-eern I to be these : The rebels had been ravng'ng the coun ' try. slaying and burning; leaving h. desolated counrry ; behind them. These missionaries, with the hope that : th-y misfit have sonic influence in staying some of ; this destiuction and cruelty, went out to reason with ' the insurgent chief's. But their efforts were not well I received ; ihe chiefs gave or lers to slay thetn. These ' reltels, though operating in concert with those whose . head quartint arc at Nanking, yet appear to be less favorable to foreigners. ! How the Great Thief Floyd E-caped from , Fort DoNELsos. A Fort Dotielson correspondent ' writes as follows of the manner .f Floyd's escape from . that place : Surprise has often been expressed in my ' hearing that l'illow and Floyd should have been able i to escape with S.O'K) men, a number of pieces of can ; nou and a supply of the best arms. This will seem ; on easy task when it is reniemlTcd that we had no ; foice above the fott on the opposite side of the river, and that steamers were lying near D.iver, and had ' been conveying provisions to the rebels for several days without fear of molestation. All that Pillow nml Floyd had to do, therefore, was to go down to the , boat, cross the Cumberland, ami go up on the oppo site side as far a Nashville. It was generally sup ; posed we had troops and batteries to defeat such a ; movement, but we had not; nnd that we had not is a : great mistake, for which some one I know not who ' is responsible.

Fort Donelson, Tnn., morning, rebruary loth. surrendered on Sunday It took but a short time f.r the news to travel 0 miles, to Nashville. The effect of the news, the panic that seized the Ccn eederate troops in the vicinity, and po.-sessed thetn during the eight days that intervened before Gens. Buell anl Mitchell marched into Nashville, is thus graphically described by the Republican Banner of, February 'J.uh, which continues to be publisneJ in that city : Eailv SnnJir morning. (Fehnary 10th.) it was rumored that Fort Donelson had surrendered, but it j was not until between 10 nnd 11 A. M. that the! rumor became general. In the mean time the General ! Assembly had been hastily convened, and after a short session, had a ij urned to meet in the city of Memphis on the 20:h. The citizens generally, una ware of any disaster to the Southern cause, were Qtiietlv repairing to church, where, however, they were met hy the report that Fort D'ineison had fallen, lhat a Federal army was already at Springfield, j Robertson county, about '25 mile from thix city, con- ' nected by railroad, and that the gunboats had passed j Clarksville. on their way to this city. The tud len j flight of the Governor a:'d nil the State c-Ricers, in- ! eluding Ihe General Assembly, who took a special . train through to Me'nphis, gave color to these absurd j rumors, and the whole city was thrown into a panic. About this time Gen. Johnston's army from Bowling Green entered the city pasing south, thus leaving the impression that no stand wa9 to be made for the defense of Nashville Such hurrying to and fro was never seen. Before nightfall hundreds of citizens, with their families, were making their way ns best they could for the South, many of them having no idea why they were thus recklessly abandoning com fortable homes, or where they were going About night it was announced that the military authorities would throw open the public stores to all who would take them. The excitement continued through Sunday night, constantly pairing strength, aided by the destruction of two gunboats at the wharf which were in process of construction two fine New Orleau9 packets, the At met Woods and Junes Johnson, having hi en taken for that purpose. The retreatiog army of Gen. John ston continued its march, encamping by regiments at convenient points outside of the city. Monday morning. 17th, the drama opened in the city intensely exciting. The public stores were dis tributed to some extent among the peopile, while the army anil hospitals were mnkins heavy requisitions, and pressing all men and vehicles that they could, to convey their supplies to their camps. At the same tiaie considerable quantities were removeJ to the depots for transportation South. Evening came, and no R'inhoa's and no Federal army from Kentucky. Gen. Johnston left for the S iuth, placing Gen. Floyd in command, assis'e I by Generals Pillow and Hardee. The apprehension of the near approach of the enemy having been found groundless, it was determined by Gen. Floyd that the destruction of the stores was pre mature, and nn order was sent to close Ihe ware houses, and a force detailed to collect what had been given out. This was dune as far as practieab'e ; but on Tu. sday the distribution commenced again, and continued with more or less restrictions, under tbe eye of the most judicious citizeos, until Saturday morning, lueslay night the wire Dnuge nnt rail road across the Cumberland were destroyed in spite of the most earnest and persistent remonstrances of our leading citizens. The wire bridge cost about S160.0;)0, and a large portion of tbe stock was own ed by the lamented Gen Zjllicoffer, and was the chief reliance for support of his orphaned daughters. The railroad bridge cost f :2-"0.0K), and was one of the finest drawbridges in the country. The scenes which were eu.icte 1 duringjthc follow ing days up to Mon 1 ty morning, the -1th, beggar description. The untiring energy of the Mayor and city authorities, who throughout this whole affair actel with a prudence, z?al and devotion to the city which cannot be too highly commended, was inade quate to keep down the selfish and unprinciplel spirit of Mammon, which run riot, grasping from the mouths and backs of suffering widows and orphans the poor pittance of meat and clothing which was left tbetn as indemnity for mouths of toil with their needles and the sacrifice of hu-hanJ, sens and brot li the efforts of the Mayor, however, a plan was adopt el on Saturday by which most, if not all, ot these poor and unprotected creditors of the G jvernment were secured by quartermaster and commissary b tores. Here wa an entire week of panic and confusion, during which millions of dollars worth of property was loit to the Southern Confederacy and wantonly destroyed, all of whih might have been quietly and safely removed had the panic stricken leaders been able to maintain their tquaniutity in the face of a vague and unauthentic rumor that the enemy were near at hau l Comment upon such management is unnecessary in these columns it can be heard loud and unsparing from every mouth iu the land. Ou Tuesday, as we learn, the city of Clarksville was surrendered to Commodore Foote of the Federal navy. The Com mod. re and his staff were invited on shore and hospitably entertained, after which he left in his gunboat, announcing that be would return on Wednesday and take formal possession of the city, which he did, issuing a very conciliatory proclama tion to the people. There are now some f,0(;0 Fed eral soldiers at Clarksville, as we learn. Through the efforts of the city authorities some thing more like orJer was restored ou Saturday. The distribution of srores was stopped, and every effort wade tu remove as much as possible to the depot, and have them carried off. Laige quantities were thus removed. Bat the heavy rains iu the meantime so swelled the water courses that the railroad bridges gave way, and transportation was tbus stopped on the Nashville and Clarksville railroad. The depot9 in the meantime, filled with meat and other stores, attracted the cormorants, and riot after riot ensued to prevent the mob from literally carrying off every thing. Sunday morning twenty four Federal pickets breakfasted in Edgefield, opposite the city, and dur ing the morning eight of thetn seized a little stern wheel steamboat that had been appropriated as a ferry, aint declined to permit it to continue its trips. Mayor Cheatham immediately crossed in a skiff, but as there was no officer with whom he cculd negotiate, nothing was done. Iu the evening Col. Kennet, of the Fourth Ohio cavalry, arrived, and sent a mes senger to the Mayor, rtquestirg his presence. The interview was pleasant on both sides, and satisfactory, though the formal surrender of the city was deferred until the arrival of Gen. Mitchell, who was expected Sunday night or Monday morning. Oo Monday nothing was done, ihe city remained comparatively quiet. On Monday evening. ('4th) Gens. Buell and Mitchell arrived in EJgefielJ, oppo site the city, and understanding that the city authorities had appointed a committee consisting of the Mayor and several of our leading citizens, lie sent a tnessnge requesting an interview. The hour for the interview w s fixed at 11 A. M , Tuesday. In the meantime. Gen. Nelson ariived in the city, about 8 A. M., Tuesday morning, in Ck.mrr.aiid of a fket consisting of one gunboat, the St. Louis, and eight transports.
