Chester Uallt of Wells burgh, a member of the first VirginUlReg iment, who was captuHl by the scesh near Rotnney, and wlo has been jome three months in a Richoond prison, was in the city yesterday. He ooks as well its if he had never seen a prion, but does not deny that he was awfulglad to gat out.? He is still a prisoner, ha ing given his pa-l role of honor until cxclisiged, and consid ers it therefore his duty o say as little as possible about Rich mod affairs. Lieut. Hall saw and conversedtrith many Pan Handle people, includfac Joe Pendleton and Dr. White, the latjr of whom had been a Major in some viginia regiment, but lately gave up the sjpliering business and was going to the Planers'Convention. Pendleton treated Lieut.&laU with much more courtesy than did D)^ White. ' When White reached Richmond le caused to be published in the Di<^a(c.tl<wspaper a long nrticle about Western Vrginla affairs which bristled all over wiV Tile lies. The Union boys in tiieWbmond tobac co houses had their own fu. They sang the Star Spangled Banner ad other anti secession songs whenever. ti?y pleased.? They had what they called ,ie Richmond l'rison Association, a speeim* of the seal of which we hare seen. It'i about the size of a ten cent piece. Arotid the outer edge are the words, "RicbmooiPrison As sociation." Inside of these --ords is a wreath of body lice, which tVugh made with a pen and very small, can be plainly distinguished. In the centcr arrie words, '?Rite and be damned." Thesewdy lice were very numerous, and the chlf amuse ment of the prisoners was buying (or them, swearing at them and singm/ about them. Iiieut. Hall is not disposed) com plain much of the treatment be tceived daring his three months' con6nemet* as he expectcd no luxuries, and saw liuntu-dt of others who endured much greatemard ihips than himself. Lieut. Freeman, another rrlcased^ris oner, is also in the city. t OaT A Bold Horsk Tihbv.?On Frit night last some thief stole threegood hor from the stable of Mr. William Penningto*, near St. Clairsville. The thfcf lifted te stable door off its hinges, aid took tbt horses out without being difiovered. He then, took away a set of harn*ss which he concealed in a pile of straw ?ith the view, itissupp)sed of misleading-.he owner of the horses and inducing him t/suppose that the horses had been driven *vay in a ve hicle of soma description. Ji soon as the theft was discovered on Sa&rday pursuit was made and it was asceeLlped that the thief with the three horses ltd crossed the suspension bridge. Officef?

The claim w ich these heirs hare to the estate, which' .hey now desire to have controlled by a (immittee, is by Tirtue of a will cIt Mosc Sheppard, the first husband of Mrs. Cru| :r, who devised that the heirs aforesaid should become owners of the estate D| id the death of Mrs. Cruger.

Lender bad I every attention which bis old and well tried | friends Around htm could bestow. His death was somewhat sudden. 11 was not until five o'clock this afternoon that bis wife received intelligence of his illness, she immediately took mens urea for obtaining n special train to proceed thither, but before the arrangements were completed, Secre tary Stanton called in persoo and with much feeling and delicacy acquainted her with the fact of her husband's death. Sec- ' retary Clmse and other distinguished friends subsequently visited ber iu her af fliction. Official information to the War Depart ment from Nashville represeuts thai the military work in that State is abuul corn- ' pleled, and that it only remains to efTect a civil re-organlzation of the State govern ment. It is believed that the U. S. forces will occupy Columbus to-day. Thb rebel forces under Albert 8. Jobn 8toh are being steadily pressed backward 1 by Gen. Buell. Cotton to tbe value of one hundred tbou- j sand dollars has fallen into' our hands at Nashville, and the Treasury Department j has taken measures to have it brought to New York. Tbe President has designated Hon. An- i drew Johnson to be a Brigadier General, > aud be proceeds to Tennessee to-moriow to | open a military provisional government of Tennessee until the civil goverbment shall be reconstructed. Gen. Uuell will be nominated to-morrow a Major General of volunteers. Gen. Shields succeeds Gen. Lander in command. The following dispatch was received to day froui Commander Foote, dated Cairo, March lit. Lieutenant commanding Phelps, sent with a flag of truce to-day to Columbus, has this moment returned and reports that Columbus Is beiug evacuated. He saw tbe rebels burning their winter quarters aud removing tbeir heavy guns on tbe bluffs, but the guns in tbe water batteries remain intact. He also saw a large force of caval ry drawn up ostentatiously on tbe bluffs but no infantry to be seen as heretofore or encampment scene. Our armed rccounolsr sance upon Dogs river has been removed. Large fires were visible in the town of Columbus and npon tbe river banks below indicating the destruction of the town, military stores and equipments. (Signed) A. H. Foots, Flag officer. It Is believed here our army has by this time occupied Columbus. St. Loma, March 3.?A special despatch to tbe Democrat, from Cairo, 2d, says a great light was seen in the direction of Columbus last night. It is generally be lieved that the rebels there have burned everything of iuflamabla nature. The Memphis Appeal of the 28th, has the following: We have information from Nashville up to noon on Wednesday. IJuell and Com. Foote arrived and occupied the place. The The United States flag wa* raised over the dome of tbe capitol, and floats there now. But one Federal flag was exhibited, and that from the shop of a Yankee jew eler, who had long been suspected of disloyalty. The feeling in Nashville is strongly Southern. A deep gloom seemed to cover the community. The citixens avoid intercourse of auy kind with the Invaders. Two British flags bad been rnised by property holders, thus evincing their intention to claim the pro tection of that Government. Tbe sick are being removed from Colura- ' bus. We are pleased to learn that Gen. Beauregard is making prompt and ener getic preparations to oppose an attack which now secrrs so imminent on Colum bus. The reported capture of B. K. Johnson at Ft. Donelson is incorrect, he arrived at Nashville on Saturday, having escaped from the hr.nds of the euemy. Jeff Thomp son left bis old headquarters the day bo fore yesterday on a secret expedition. We will turn up somewhere. Both Houses of the Tennessee Legisla ture met oil tbe 27tb, but ndjouruud for want of a quorum. Concerning the President's niessnge, tbe Appeal says be is free to conless the error of bis past policy, and tbe extent of tbe disasters which have followed from it.? We think war will soon be made on the ad vancing columns of tbo enemy; that we will attack, pursue and destroy, instead of being, attacked, pursued and destroyed. Tbe spado will be dropped and the bayo net resumed. In other words, the policy of Fabian Davis will yield to that of the Napoleonic Beauregard. In view of these facts we can see light gleaming through dark clouds that at pro sent environ us, which will burst forth in less than sixty days in full resplendant lustre. Rebels are said to be posted be yond Island No. 10, thirty-five miles below Columbus, whioh place they will fall back on. Tbe high ground is adapted for pilot ing batteries to command tbe river. Prom inent officers believe that Columbus was burnt. Important Military Order, St. Loots, March 3;?Tbe following im portant order was issued this evening: Difartmist or Missouri, 1 St. Louts, March 3d, 1802. / In order that commerce may follow with post office close upon the advance south ward of the armies of tbe Union, the fol lowing regulations are established for the present conduct of restored intercourse between tbe loyal sections of the Depart ment of Missouri and tbe country on tbe Tennessee and Cumberland river*: First. Steamboats aud other water crafts running in trade and travel on these rivers to or from the port of St. Louis or any other port within this military Department must, in addition to customary registration and 'enrollment required by the revenue laws of tbe United States, take out special license for this renewed intercourse which is now provided In regulations established in January last for the trade and transpor tation of tbe Mississippi river. 3d. Such special license may be Issued by the superintendent of transportation in the city of St. Louis, but can be applied for to any surveyor of customs within this Department, whose certificate that all j requisite conditions have been complied with mUBt accompany tbe application when forwarded to tbe superintendent aforesaid. 8d. Boats engaging in trade and trans portation under such license are of course subject to revenue laws of tbe United 8lates, and must comply fully and faith fully with regulations and instructions of tbe Treasury Department, now in force or wbiob may hereafter be adopted for tbe coutrol of commercial and personal intfr ' course of sections under view, to render uniform customs now in measure governing . trade and travel of tbe interior and to sub serve the ends of orders and law. It is further directed, first, that the permit sys ' tem. made necessary by persisteot efforts of - person* - in. loyal States who sympathise ; with those engaged In the rebellion, and by peddlers and corrupt trafficker*, many of whom nine from dl.lojr.18t.u-. ami section, e?|iiTMljr for Ibis purpose, to smuggle goods, medicines .nd other sup plies through to insurrectionists, shell l,s enforced on the Tennessee .nd Cumber land nirers, m it it oa the Ohio nod Mis ? is-lppi. 2d that the examination and sealing the baggage or traTeller. introduced mainly by reason of frequent and illegal conveyance ?.f 10 and fr?. between the North and South after the rebellion had destroyed the postal facilities or the latter | section be extended by Custom House offi. cers, so as to embrace the country on the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers, and 3d that water crafts, railroad cars and all or ci 1 nary wheeled vehicles be until other* wise ordered, prohibited from carrying into the country en the Tennessee and Cumber land river baggage not covered by Custom thor'iyPenU"a ?r 'hlN,ed bT military au 3d. These orders are issued only as a measure of safety, to guard against illegal or improper intercourse and exchanges of commodities, aud not intended to impose additional expenses or burthens or any Kind upon trade, or impede or in any man ner interfere with the freedom of legiti mate and proper transportation or travel Consequently, first, no charge will be made by the superintendent or transpor tation for special license required to be taken out for the time being; second, blank loims will be supplied to several surveyors or customs within this department for use. without cost to the parties making applU cations for licenses; and third, the sur veyors aforesaid will use liberally, though cautiously, the discretion with which thev are entrusted in issues of permits to cover goods, wares and merchandise goiog for ward for commerce or family supply. *. Surveyors and other officers or Cut 'f resisted in the proper discharge of their duties, will call Tor aid upon com mander or the nearest military post or encampment and nt places where there are 00 Custom Houie officer or agents. such commanders are authorized and required to exercise all necessary precautions to pre vent transmission or letters aod other mail matter by any other than regularly estab lished post office channels and agencies: or transportation or merchandize or supplies or any description not carried by Custom House permit, or going under sanction of military authority. By order Mu. Gig. Hallick. Chicaoo, March 2?A special despatch from Cairo on the 1st, to the Times re* poits that the unanimous disloyalty of'thi citixens in and about Nashville, Is confirm ed by every arrival from Cumberland. The difference in sentiment between the people 01 the Tennessee and Camberland rivers is very marked. On the former there are many Unionists, but on the latter none have yet made their appearance. Reports are current, and are credited, that Columbus was evacuated and de stroyed. The town was in flames last night. Ureat quietness and apparent Inaction reigns in Cairo. Baltimore March 2.?The boat from rortress Monroe to-morrow will bring 400 more released, prisoners, and it is confi dently expected that Col. Corcoran and other officers will accompany them. Qea. Uix has ordered out the New York Stb Zouaves, to escort them from the boat to the rooms of the relief association. UNITED STATES MAILS.
