Bay How Major Daub's Female Pris oners weus Disposed Of.?As is well known, tbe Provost Marshal within tbe past few months has received quite n num ber of female prisoners from different parts of tho Smite, with the history of most of whom our readers have been made ac quainted through these columns. Within the past two or three days most of tbe girls have beeu disposed of. Mary Jane Green, of Braxton, charged with destroying the J Government telegraph, Miss JennieDellart, charged with being a spy, and Miss Mar garet Murphy were sent beyond the Federal lines. Miry Summers, Elizabeth Hays, Marian McKenzie and Mary Jane Prater, all of whom were arrested in tho uniform of soldiers, supposed to be common pros titutes, were taken into Pennsylvania, out of tbe reach of the camps and there dropped down to take care of themselves. In addition to tbis, Major Darr still holds the two Miss Copcland's, daughters of | Col. Copeland, who resides near Clarks burg. Tbey ate charged with carrying letters to the rebel army, and appear to be well educated and intelligent yonng la-lies. Ellen Conner and Harriet Stewart are also held in custody as spies. They were arrested a day or two since in Harrison couuty, as spies. Miss Conner states that she is no spy, and that at the time of ber airestsbe was hunting ber lover, a member of tbe Gtb Virginia infantry, who had se duced and abandoned her. Miss Stewart claims that she is a cousin to Miss Conner, and went with her in search of the lover aforesaid, for tbe pur pose of keeping her company. ? As Important Arrest.?Meyer Wieuberg, salesman for Harlmnn h Straus, clotbiers on Water street, was arrested oo Tuesday by a squad of soldiers, under tbe following circumstances : Of late sev eral deserters have been arrested in and about Baltimore city with clotbiog upon tbeir persons bearing the Wheeling mark. A day or two ago a detective officer iu tbe employ of tbe Government came out from Baltimore for tbe purpose of-detectiug tbe parties wbo sold tbe clothing, and to ac complish this object soldiers were sent to tbe various clothing stores with instruc tions to represent themselves as deserters in search of citizen's clothing. Wienberg is ono of those who took tbe bait. He suld tbe soldier all tbe clothing be wanted aud being at once informed upon was ar | rested as aforesaid, lie was held to bail . by Commissioner Forbes in the sum of | $1,000. The detective alluded to sent a couple | of soldiers into tbo clotbiug bouse of Son neborn, corner of Main aud Uniou streets. Tbe soldiers told Sonneborni that it was tbeir iutention to desert and they wanted c'.otbiug. Tbey were at once takeD into a back 'room, Sonneborn informing tbem that tbey need have no fears of him as he bad rendered such assistance to deserters before. As the soldiers) were about put tiog on the clothing which tbey bad pur chased tbe officers came in and arrested tbe proprietor, wbo was yesterday taken before Commissioner Forbes and held to bail in tbe sum ol $1,500. Other clotbiug establishments were tried but refused to bile. ?ay*TnB Wbathsr and tub Crops.? The late rnius have seriously interfered with the farmers in getting in tbeir spring crops. The earlb was so completely satu rated that plowing was impossible. Ou tbe very bigh grounds where the soil is a light loam, the farmers have been able to plant tbeir corn, but in tbe lower lands no plowing has been done for tbe past two weeks. Generally speaking, the wheat looks well aud promises an abundant har vest, except in tbe more depressed land, where it is almost entirely drowned out. Should tbe weather continue wet for a week longer, tbe farmers will be obliged to cross out tbeir land, plant tbe oorn and plow out tbe middle lands afterward.? Such a season has not been known in tbi country for years, and it baa been special!] beneficial only to grass, of which there wil be an abundant crop. There U--now ever] indication of an abundance of fruit. Thi trees were kept back by the late coli weather, and the blossoms now show promise of a large crop. The fine warm weather whioh we hat had for a few days has beeu very favora ble, but yesterday there were indication of more rain. ? ; BSf At a meeting of the citizens of Ih 5th Ward for tbe appointment of Delegate to tbe Convention, R. W. McGlellan ws called to the chair and A. G. Robinson wi appointed Secretary. On motion of -J. I Tappen it was resolved that the medic appoint one set of Delegates to each Ooi mention. On motion Phillip Sohele, M. 1 Heed, R. W. McClelUn, James Reed ai Daniel Lamb were nominated to the Di 4-trict Convention. Phillip Sehele^ B. Hildreth, Robert Pratt, Wm. Hastings ai James Ashurst were elected as Delegat the Connfy Convention. t S?-Tbe following gentlemen were a pointed Delegates from tbe 6th Precinc J. L. Stifel, Hiram Armstrong, W. W. Hi I H^Hobsi Thieves Captured.?A few days ago, a lot ol Jenkins" guerrillap, among whom were Henry and. William, Bryan and John Taft, concluded to try their hands in the stealing line, on the north side of the Ohio, in the neighborhood of Swan creek, seventeen miles below Qallipolis. Anything lying around loose, as saddles, bridles, 4cc., were unceremoni ously gobbled np. A party of eleven Union citizens started in pursuit next day and Qvertook the thieves within a circuit of about six miles. The three above named were captured with most of tbe stolen plander, and lodged In the Qallipolis jail, where they are now enjoying the bitter fruits of their conduct. It is to be hoped they will be tried nnder civil law and set to work in tbe Ohio Peni tentiary for the good of the State. They were all armed with breech loading car bines and revolvers, and admit being en gaged in tbe fight at Point Pleasant. Tbey say their loss in killed and wonnded did not exceed twenty. Tbe captors of these thieves deserve great credit fortbe prompt measures adopt* el to stop their career. Tbe only mistake made was in capturing them at all. Such fellows sboald have been suffered "to sleep" until the day of judgement. "Thb River.?There were between eight and nine feet water in the pbanne) of the Ohio yesterday. The Sir William Wallace passed down yesterday for Cin cinnati. Tbe St. Patrick also left for that point. The Charley Potwin was lying at the landing with a barge in tow. An unknown man, while laboring, it is supposed, in a fit of insanity, deliberately jumped from the steamer White Rose, which was lying at the Pittsburgh wharf, into tbe river on Tuesday, and was imme diately drowned. He was anknown to any | one on the boat, and no positive reason can be assigned lor tbe rash act. The de ceased is supposed to have been about 30 or 35 years of age. After jumping into the river he made no effort whatever to save himself. If we may judge from appearances, the White Rose has seen some pretty rough service while attached to the Mississippi. Both of her smoke stacks have been par tially knocked down, and one of the upper guards is entirely torn off from stem to stern It will take from tea days to two weeks to place her in repair. t&~ Stealing Government Stores. During the excitement, growing out of the recent rebel raid, a train of cars, contain ing Government commissary stores, was switched off at Glover's Gap, ou the Haiti. more and Ohio Rail road, and while lying at that point, was rotjbed of about $800 worth of provisions. Tbos. Judge, James Lyoch and Mrs. John Marken, all of whom reside in the vicinity of,the Gup, were ar rested upon the charge of having commito I the theft, and were brought to this city. They had a hearing yesterday, before Aid. Dulty, and were committed te j til for trial! aerWnKRBABOUTB OF THE RsBEL RAID *R3.?From tbe best information we can gain, the rebel raiders, perhaps a thousand or two strong, are still hanging about Gil mer, Wirt and ndjoining counties, plunder ing a little and moving out of tbe country what they have already stolen. They ap pear to be doing pretty much as they please and nobody seems to know anything a? to their future designs. t8F" Alleged Bridqe Burners.?John Black and several other citizens of Marion county, are now in custody of tbe Provost Marshal charged with participating in the late bridge burning on tbe Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. Tbey will be turned over to the civil authorities for trial. Black was formerly proprietor of the Union House, in this city.

TUc Nomination of J. S. Morris. Editors Intelligencer : I see in your issue of this morning a card setting forth that J. S. Morris, of Marion, was nominated at the late Park ersburg Convention, or rather chosen by tbe delegation from Marion, as one of the Relegates from our Senatorial District. I will here take tbe occasion to say that Mr. lioriis did not get the nomination accord log to tbe rule that should govern the ac tion of a Convention, and if be got the I nomination, as stated in your paper of this | morning, be got it by log-rolling and not ' by a testvote. . We balloted various times on tbe boat between Wheeling and Park- | ersburg, making a tie vote every time .be twien Morris and A. P. Ritchie, each dele gate being unyielding in regard to tbe man of his choice. It has come to me that on the day the Convention adjourned that I authorized certai9 parties to cast my vote, I being too unwell to attend tbe sitting of the Convention all of tbe time on Tburo day. Some, I learn, say it was cowardice of me; that I shall straighten through yonr paper in a few days. I have no knowledge of authorising any member of that Con tention to cast my vote for one candi date or the other, and in justice to the people of Marion, Marshall and Wetzel counties, I just say that Joseph S. Morris was not nominated by that Convention, or at least by the delegates from Marion, it being a tie TOte between him and A. F. Ritchie at everj ballot. As to Mr. Burley, of Marshall, be did get tbeuQomination. May 12, 1863. William Fox. GRAND OPENING. MRS. E.

His leltarm has been amputated ibovc tbe elbow ; a bullet his passed thro' lis right baud. His condition is now, we earn, as favorable as could possibly be ixpected ; and be will doubtless recover, \ud is not we trust, lost to active service. Vfe could belter spare a brigade or a di vision. It would bo grievious to tbink :hat bis banuer will never more flash out lpoif tbe Yankee rear, and throw them it iis first gleam into headlong rout, ivlth the sudden outcry, "Jackson's com ng"?that the stern eye of tbe hero will aever more lighten with it warrior's joy ts he launches brigade after brigidnupon :he stubborn foe, until tile hated flag ?loop? and the columns reel, and break, ind fly. with the veDgeful Confederate ringing in their ears. Our base foe will exult in the disaster to Jackson , yet the accursed bullet tbat brought him down was never moulded by a Yankee. Through a cruel mistake, in the confusion, tbe hero received two balls from some of hi3 own men who would all have died for him.
