There is nothing late from the opera tions of Gen. Grant’s army now in fall after the demoralized pack ofßragg’s ■whipped fugitives. Gen. Grant sends Tvord to the Department that he has cap tured a lot of the Vicksburg paroled rob-; ■ els, nud is in a quandary as. to. 'tho dispo sition he .shall make of them., Gen. Bher yuan pet a model by shooting some of them -at Jackson. The official Statement of our loss in the capture of liookout Mountain and the storming of JHsrionary Ridge is set down at.3,200. The Army of the Potomac at latest ac counts was all across the Hapidan and still lidvnncing. Our cavalry have had several ekhmishes with the rebel outposts, driving them In and back to Orange Court House Vhci c a battle is expected unless Lee ghall start for Kichiaond- Tiieixj is a wild rebel report from Char leston na Mobile that the former pest of treason has been burning sixty-three hours, that Gilmore’s shells are making it worse, *and that the remaining walls of Sumter have fallen, burying up the rebels. Later dates through Federal sources, however, make the story improbable. The news is 100 good to be true. Formidable forces of rebels are organiz ing in Louisiana -and Mississippi to plant batteries and impede the navigation of the ■river, and from the magnitude of these preparations it seems likely that the Father -ofTVkUas will not long go nnvexed to the sea. There is work ahead for the gunboats. A brilliant rcconnoissance in "Western Louisiana has resulted in the capture of the fith Texas regiment. t Tiie news from Gen. Banks' expedition continues cheering. Corpus Christ!, capi tal cf Nueces county, 230 miles southwest of Galveston, and Aifanm City and other minor places hare been captured. Steamboat navigation on the Mississippi 3s a tiling of fearful uncertainty. Our dis patches contain accounts of the burning of two Imats, one of them accompanied by loss of life, the wnlrinp of a third, and two more running the ganntlet of guerilla fire. Daring the past week there have been re ceived in this city, of live and dressed, not less than 109,290—the largest receipts ever known in this market in one week. Since the Ist of October the receipts foot up 536,- 471—an increase over the receipts of the corrwponding period in 186*3 of 165,959. THE GALLANT 12th ILLINOIS, 9 Home again. Home with the bronze and scars of service, with soldier memories Ptond with unwritten volumes of thrilling experience in camp and field, with a record of vulor as imperishable as the annals ot this war, with a shining list of honored dead,' with its invalided • braves, so came buck our gallant Twelfth Illinois Cavaliy, on Saturday night, wel comed home again to Chicago by thou sands of expectant citizens, who thronged the streets even at the midnight hour of their arrival, and with loyal cheers escort ed them to die more formal and material welcome at Biyan Hall. As a whole, the .ovation was as just to jthese noble men as 3t wusxreditable to our city. . And by thowtry, must it not be a trying time for a Copperhead, these occasions when the great heart of the people gashes with generous impulse towards our return ing heroes. If it be thus with those who, sword in hand, have crashed the rebellion ty striking down anfied enemies, who have beaten in the rebels, staying at no barrier of prejudice or compromise; if thus splendidly the people endorse its war rior sons, what a reverse of scorn and con tumely awaits the men who have done nothing for their country in its peril, who liavc had no word but of detraction, no deed but of treason in the hour when the country called for all the fruits of loyalty. No men havebetterearned their furlough | tbnn the noble Twelfth. Than this, no regiment butter deserves to have the vacan cies in Its ranks filled up promptly with our best ColonelHasbrouck Da vis is every inch a soldier, and bis men have a pride in him. The Twelfth is a splendid regiment, and its commander has pride in it With this happy reciprocity, all that is needed is for Illinois to fill every vacant saddle and send these veteran troop ers back to the army to open a fresh ac count with the rapscallions of Jeff Davis, and be in at the death. |3T The charter election in New York city conics off the first day in December—next Tuesday. Xo Our prisoners at Richmond. Washington, Nov. 28.—The Sanitary’ Com inlsoion has this day dispatched from Balti more another large invoice of clothing and supplies for Union prisoners in Richmond. They have advices of the distribution of their previous contributions by the rebel authori ties. Additional government supplies will be forwarded as soon as evidence is received of the proper distribution of what has already been furnished. From St* Louis. St. Louis, Nov. 29.—The steamer Silver wave from St Louis to Nashville, with a full cargo of Government stores, and about 100 horses, sunk, yesterday morning, about twen ty-five miles above Cairo. It is thought she cannot be raised. The weather is very cold here since yester day morning, the thermometer ranging from 10 to 15 degrees below freezing point Ice begins to appear in the river. From New York. New York. Nov. 29.—From returns re ceived at the Assistant Provost Marshal Gen eral’s office it appears that the nnmbcr of sol diers enlisted in this city under the new call for volunteers during the pest week is about 800. As the recruiting business was not fair ly in operation until Monday last, this is con sidered a very encouraging result for the first week. liidions Asking for Protection. Springfield. Mo., Nov. 38.—A delegation of Cherokee Indians, headed by Capt Christy, acting Chicly paid their respects to Gen. Mc- Neil fo-day, by order of their national coun cil. Capt Christy recounted the Bufferings of tbe Indians from roving banditti, and asked for protection against their depredations. He desired authority to raise a regiment of cav alry and adopt guerrilla warfare, as the only, means of ridding themselves of mounted ma rauders, and also asked that districts allotted for bcttiement should be better protected to enable the Indians to cultivate the soil and eccurc more comfortable homes. Gem McNeil replied that he bad represent ed the condition of the Indians to the proper authorities, and recommended some meas ures for their improvement, and would af ford them all protection in his power. Increase of Xax on Spirit**. Washington, Not. 27. —The Commissioner of Internal Revenue Ims concluded to recom mend In hie report to the Secy, of the Treas. n large increase in the excise tux on distilled spirits. The present tax is considered shsnrdlT low as compared with that levied upon other goods, while in England it yields 2Q per cent and upwards of the gross revenue of that country. In our own it yelds less than 10 per ct,, and as it is deemed necessary to increase taxation to make the law meet the expectation of Congress, there Is no article on which it can be better levied than on this. Therefore the Commissioner will ask that the tax bo Increased to 50 or CO, probably the lat te: man. From Nashville. Nahhviixe, Not. 28. —Capt Cox, mate and dtrk of the steamer Hukc, were arrested here to-night and wm be tried by a Military Com mission charged with crossing the rebel Cob Hawkins and 300 of his men from the morth to the south side of the Cumberland River, near Fort Douclson. tho Ohio cavalry, wounded in the late fight, will not recover! Ctol. Long encountered a portion of Wheeler’s <savulry at Cleveland, yesterday, and after a severe fight the rebels were routed. The loss is not stated. There was a heavy ruin last night, and the Cumberland river Is risinir rapidly, with nine feet water on the shoals. Bobel Slilpmcnfs, New York,’ Nov. 28. —The British steamer Corsica, from Nassau, was thoroughly searched by the Custom House officers list night, as well as all the baggage of passen gers.

Our wounded are all under cover and well cared for. . . THE WAR IN VIRGINIA. [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Washington, Not. 29,1863. Communications between Washington and Meade's army arc completely cut off No telegraphic connection,* and no couriers get through save by running the gauntlet through a country already, swarming with guerillas. A courier, however, got through this afternoon, bringing details of the army's operations down to noon of yesterday (Satur day.) . ' These operations are all preliminary. Meade seems to be gradually pushing the rebel army on Gordonsrille, and it is believ ed that if Lee means to fight at all a pitched battle must be imminent. : Onr army has abundance of rations, and is animated at once by lie pursuit of a retreat ing enemy, and by the inspiring news it heard just before beginning its movements from Chattanooga. After one p. m. Friday, firing along the whole line became very severe and lasted un til dark. The rebels fell bade from the Rapi dan, on Friday night, to front ns at Orange Court House. Firing was heard all day yes terday from onr center and left, and occas ionally to-day. Boats with a million rations went down the Potomac from Alexandria, to-day. ■ The N. Y. Time* correspondent sends the following; > . Saturday Morning—3 - o’clock.—The ene my have apparently fiOten back. There has been some Bkpmishlnging,. bnt no cannona ding this forenoon., Lient CoL ; Herron, of the 734Penn., was* killed yesterday of the fid corps. - Rappahannock Station, Not. 28,1 P.M. —The progress made by Gen. Meade is highly encouraging, and if successful, a new base of supplies will be established la a few days, from •which' the army will operate with moat damaging eflect to the Confederacy. We ore having a heavy and disagreeable rain. 7P, M.—The Army of the Potomac has finally severed its line of communication with Washington, and nothing has come through from it since yesterday morning. ■ If there had been a general engagement yes terday, the wounded would have been sent to the rear and conveyed to Washington by the raHroad. from this point. As no wounded men have been sent here, it Is certain that no battle has been fought The heavy cannonading yesterday was proba bly of no greater importance than artillery firing frequently, which makes a great deal of noise, hnt docs little execution. i This morning cannonading was heard faint er than yesterday, bnt during the day it has been perfectly quiet • • , . The rain ceased before dark, and probable that the quantity which fell to-day will no f t interfere with the movements of the army, except for a few hoars, in emancipating it self from Washington. The Army of the Potomac is In position to operate most disastrously against the reb els. 7 . Should it also emancipate the Union pris oners now enduring ages of misery in a sin gle month in Richmond, it will accomplish one of the greatest achievements performed by any army during the war. OPERATIONS TO THE 28TH. Washington, Nov. 29.—The Army of the Potomac advanced at six o’clock on the morning of the 27th, from near Germania, Culpepper, and Jacob’s Ford, and formed in line of battle, the center resting on the Fred ericksburg turnpike, near Robertson’s tav ern. The left advanced along the plank road, forming a curve towards Gordonsville;-and the west terminating near Rapidan, south west of Jacob's Ford. ' As the center' ad vanced it came npon the enemy's pickets and skirmish line. jt Subsequently the enemy's line was strength ened by the arrival of reinforcements from 1 Ewell's corps, on the Rapidan front About one o'clock slow and irregular cannonading commenced on the road leading to Orange Court House, and considerable firing be tween the skirmishers. The enemy did-not reply With artillery at 4 o'clock. It was announced that Hill's corps, which had previously rested on the Rapidan east of the railroad, was approaching on the center, and half an hour later heavy musketry was heard on the right, showing that the 3d corps forming that wing, was engaged. Onr casualties were few fix the center. The only officer of rank at that time known to be killed is Lieut. Cob Hcsscr, 72d Pennsyl vania regiment. n - The battle ground Is in a wilderness, with but little open country, consequently an ac curate description of onr position cannot be given, but it will be perceived that wc have the enemy's fortified position skirting Rapidan on the right, and can compel them to give battle if they intend to fight on ground less unfavorable to ns. Jcft Davis, owing to the unfavorable weather of yesterday, did not review the rebel army as Intended, and he is said to have returned to Richmond on Thursday, Gen. Gregg’s cavalry and batteries had a severe fight with the enemy's right wing of cavalry Thursday P. iL We drove them back upon their in fantry lines, when wc were compelled to fall back with loss said to be about 250 killed. The sth corps coming up, the enemy in turn were compelled to retreat About CO were wounded in the Sd corps, 5 killed and 7 mortally wounded oot th» right Gen. French, with the 3d. corps, when advan cing, encountered Ewell’s corps before be connected with the center; and after a severe fight held his position, but lost heavily. He, however, captured 900 rebels. The Ctix corps was theuthrown forward,and filled the gap between the center and right A train of the sth corps advancing on the plant road was attacked on the flank by reb el cavalry, who destroyed fifteen or twenty wagons and killed two men and several males. On Friday morning It was found that the re bels had fallen back from onr center to two miles nearer Orange Court House, and the above Intelligence is up to the evening of Friday, and was brought to Washington by a special messenger, who came-near being captured by guerillas. The additional information which has also come to hand to-night through another source states that tbe line was formed on Friday, about noon, on the road leading to Orange Court House. Gen. Greggs cavalry, on the left, had a se vere fight with the rebel cavalry, and drove them back upon their infantry and then fell back himself upon the sth corps, who in turn drove the rebel infantry back and took their position as the left wing. Warren's 2d corps on the turnpike drove the rebel skirmishers beyond Rob ertson's tavern, and formed on the right Gcxl Prince's division, consisting of the 8d corps, met a heavy body of Ewell’s corps and fought them several hours, until tbe remain der of the corps came up,and later the Gth corps The Sd, particularly Gen. Prince’s lost hea vily, wich la estimated at 500 in killed and wounded, and many prisoners. Bat he pun ished the enemy severely in killed and wound ed, and took, as Gen. French reports, 900 pri soners. Our forces on the center had no severe fighting, and consequently our loss there was small, excepting in Gen. Gregg's cavalry di vision. It was discovered that the enemy's centre had fallen Their skirmishers ore In the woods a mile or so, nearly to Orange court house. Heavy guns were heard there all the fore noon, not tending to confirm the troth of the report that the enemy used no artillery on onr front on Friday, and we but very little, owing to the densely wooded and nearly level character of the ground* It is known that there was very heavy skirmishing on the turnpike at 9 o'clock Stiurday morning, but no particulars have been received. The heavy rain, it was thought, would hinder any offensive field operation on Satur day. It was reported that Kilpatrick’s cavalry di vision, under Gen. Coster, attempted to cross under the enemy's battery at Racoon Ford, on Friday, but was driven back. Washington, Not. 28.—N0 intelligence respecting the army of the Potomac has been received to-day at headquarters up to 2 p. m. The Star says that yesterday morning our cavalry pushed forward as far as Locust Grove, where they met the advance of the rebel cavalry, and the latter were driven across Trussel creek or river, and forwards across Mill Run. A body of rebel infantry .was posted between that point and Orange Court House, and the whole rebel force moved off in the direction of the latterplacc. Locust Grove is fonr miles south of Gerinauia ford, in Orange county, within a short dis tance of the wilderness where Hooker fought bis battle. Mill Ran is two miles from Lo cust Grove, and thence to Mountain River, where tbe rebel General Early, with Ewell’s -old corps, is said to be in force, is about six miles. Orange Court Honse Is eight or ten mile* further on in a southwest direction. ■ New York, Nov. 28.—The Washington special to the New York Time* says: E. A. Paul writes the following: Germania Ford, Nov. 20, 13 m.—The whole army is now crossing the Rapldan at Culpepper, Germania- and Jacob's Fords. There was a little skirmishing at Culpepper Ford and Jacob's MDls Ford, the rebel pick ets retiring as we advanced. The enemy had erected very strong works opposite Germania Ford, but our artillery on the left bank flank ed them, and they were soon abandoned. Later—Germania Ford, Not. 37, oa. m. —The army were crossing the Rapldan all last night. Crossings were effected with bnt little opposition. There was no severe fight ing—only u little skirmishing. SECOND DISPATCH. -Washington, Nov. 27.—We have intelli gence from the front up to 0:30 this morning. At that hour onr whole army, trains and all, were across the river; and double-quicking to meet the enemy. One. corps took the road toward Chanccllorsville, ana another toward Orange Court House. The men are In Jubi lant spirits and anxious to meet the rebels. Lee's troops have evacuated Fredericksburg Heights, which are now occupied by our cav alry. The opinion of the army officers is that the rebels have intrenched themselves between Orange Court House and Gordons viile, and will risk a battle there. The Ha'ald’* Washington dispatch of the 27th says; While great anxiety Is Jelt here to learn the immediate result of the advance of the Army of the Potomac across the Rap idan, no donbts or fears arc entertained In re gard to tho success of the mQTQment; CHICAGO, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1863. FROM WASHINGTON. [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Washington-, Not. 29,1303. OUR RICHMOND PRISONERS. A foil and detailed report has been made by a committee of onr released surgeons from Richmond. It Is calculated to create a pro found sensation In the country, and will pre pare the world to have little sympathy with the pirate crew whose craft Is nearly wrecked. The treatment of onr brave officers and men will live among such recorded barbarisms as the Black Hole of Calcutta. | TBEASDBT MATTEB3. Indications are that the amount for which the Treasniy’ifl to. bo,called on to carry'on the war and sustain the several branches of the Government, through [the ensuing fiscal year, will be very considerably less th*n has ’ .been anticipated. . The exact figures of the War Department estimates ora understood to amount to $535,000,000, and of the Navy De partment to $142,000,000. An approximate statement for other expenses will be: - For the Interior, Treasury and other De partments $30,000,000. Interest on the Public Debt $08,000,000. Diplomatic expenses are Increased, but this will be balanced by the decrease in the amounts asked by the Land and Indian Bureaus. The estimate for interest on tho Public Debt is believed to be large. . The debt is largely increased in the item of 5-20 Bonds, hnd decreased in certificates of ia debetedness.. The 7-Sos fall due* during tho fiscal year, for which these are made, hut as yet it is undecided whether to pay them in gold or paper, and as they are convertible into Sixes of *Bl it is uncertain how largo on estimate, or whether any is needed for their redemption. The whole amount of these 7-SOs, payable the ensuing year, is sl39,ooo,ooo—partly duo tho 19tb of August, 'and part tho Ist of October, 1804. These certificates of indebtedness cannot be given as their amount will depend on the mufrberyet to be issued. It is estimated, however, that they will amout toahontsl4s,- 000,000. In addition to this the’temporary loan is due any time on sixty days notice.. This loan has been reduced by payments within the last month from over $100,000,000 tp less than $60,000,000. Reports from Surveyor Gen. ClarkrOf Mex ico, fully establish the truth of the reports of rich deposits of gold in Arizona. THE CENSUS BUBEAU. The Census Bureau will have three volumes of a full report of the* United States census for 1600, ready next week. THE NEXT BOUSE. The copperhead candidates for Clerk are Edward Wendell (old contract printer under Buchanan,) Thos. J. Florence, of Philadelphia, and Emerson Ethridge. GEN. BUBN3TDE. Much solicitude is felt here for the condi tion of Gen. Bnruside'sforces. It is believed that when the facts arc all knows, it will bo scen that there were satisfactory reasons for- 7 not furnishing him reinforcements. CONVALESCENT CAMP; Cot McKellany has returned from his com mand of tbc convalescent camp. - Gen, Aber crombie succeeds him. A question whether to put glib letters on National Banks notes is yet undecided. Ob jections are made to tbc appliance-of such. Its advantage is an absolute safeguard against , counterfeiting, by photographs. CONFISCATION. Judge Underwood, just arrived' from Nor folk, where he held Court three and de creed the confiscation of fifteen rebel aristo cratic estates, including Commodore Barron.. He opens Court in Alexandria next.Tuesday. Thirty-five coses there are to bo disposed of in Princess Ann»oonnty. CAPTUnn BE A NEGBO COMPANY. Ten miles from Norfolk a negro company captured eight or ten guerillas, including a rebel Major Burroughs. THE CUSTOMS ESTIMATE. Tbc customs estimates arc chiefly tc Befrom seventy to seventy-five millions, enough to pay the interest. In '62 It was between sixty-nine and seventy milUbns. The increase ofdntles has kept pace with the decrease of bulk, of Importation. A MODEL. A conscience smitten. War Democrat returns sllO to the Treasury to-day which ho had fraudulently obtained from the government. (From Onr Regular Correspondent.]* Washington, Nov. 23, 1863. ESTIMATES FOB THE COMING FISCAL TBAB — IMPOBTANT ITEMS. From a hut reliable, source;.! am enabled to giro you an approximation of the amount of money required by Secretary Chase to cany oh the Government for the en suing fiscal year,, and also to announce in creased duties on-certain articles. I will pre mise by stating the estimates of internal rev chhe-for the fiscalyear included between the. 80th of June, 1863 and the SOth of Jane, 1863, were $150,000,000. These estimates have, however, fallen short $73,000,000. The esti mates for the fiscal year ending 1864, were $200,000,000; tot they have fallen short over $50,000,000. So that the estimates, for the two years have .fallen short from $125,000,000 to $150,000,000;- Tbc estimates for the navy are between $100,000,000 and $140,000,000, and for tbe ar my, $750,000,000. The balance, required for the ordinary expenses of the Government, will run the. total up to $1,000,000,000. So that by the end of the new fiscal year the total public debt.will not fall far short of $2,000,- OCO 000. tfhiswiUnessitate a large increase on the du ties of sending articles of production, in order to remit interest on the debt, cost of the Gov ernment, &c. For instance, spirits on which there is nowa duty of fifteen cents per gallon, will have an increased duty of ten to twenty cents per gallon; and ales, beer, &c., wiu also have increased rates of duty. The Secre tair ofthc Treasury will require for the next fiscal year, (June 80,1864, to June 80, 1865,) authority to raise a farther loan of from five to eight hundred millions of dollars; some put it as high as one thousand millions! I have already written yon that the assessors of In ternal revenue have bad a committee meeting at Philadelphia, at which they agreed to have a convention at Cleveland on 18th of Decem ber. They hove recommended the Commis sioner of Internal Revenue to raise the duties on spirits, ales. «fcc,, &c. It is said that Mr. Chose will ask for the new loan partly in the shape of authority to sell bonds, and partly in the shape of authority to make a further issue of legal tender treasury notes. Parties here, who have obtained an inkling of the needs or the Treasurer have sent large or ders to purchase whisky to Chicago, Milwau kee, Cincinnati, St. Louis, and other points in the West AH articles on which the duties wIU he increased must necessarily advance.. It is also legitimate to presume that an ad vance in property of aU descriptions, includ ing prices ox goods, wares, provisions, real estate, &c., will take place on account of the new issue and the general increase in the vol ume of the currency. Those who have goods of any kind or description on hand must real ize large profits. - ADVANCE ON DUTIES. Merchants may make np their minds to a huge advance in duties of whiskey, ales, &c. Knowing this, speculators are at work in theWest,and large orders have been sent out. Com must advance in view of the advance in spirits, and the bad crop this year. Inotificd yon a week ago in this respect THE EXCHANGE OP PRISONERS—TREATMENT OP COLORED PRISONERS. The exchange of prisoners has entirely ceased, because the rebels refuse to accord to ours who fall into their hands In all cases the usages of civilized warfare. They have also acted with perfidy in many instances, in re lation to their men paroled by ns. One of the principal causes of the stoppage of the exchange however, is their treatment of col ored prisoners of ours, whom they have used with the barbarity of beathen times—selling them into slavery and otherwise maltreating them. Ibis, of course, has had Its effect in stopping .the recruitment of - colored men, a very important matter in the present stage of the war. Failing In all hia .attempts to have colored ' prisoners exchanged on fair terms, and to have them treated as human beings, Mr. Lincoln himself has peremptorily ordered that no further exchanges should be made till Hits and cVter matters icere settled on a fair basis. The President is determined that every man, black or white, who takes up arms for tho flag, shall bo treated in all respects as such. In the meantime, the rebel author ities have allowed provisions and clothing to go forward to our prisoners in their hands, to be distributed by commissioners named by us. ■Washington, Nov, 28.— There ore now at tho Parole camp at Annapolis and Camp Chase, Ohio, fourteen hundred paroled Union prisoners, enlisted men, paroled since the Ist of September last The .last declaration of exchange by. onr Government included only those prisoners paroled to that date. Why our Government does not declare thcp,e men exchanged is not known, as the rcbois have declared all those captured by Grant to be. exchanged. Official figures • show/ that the rebels arc greatly in arreor ka these ex changes. The report that Gen. Meredith has been re lieved as Commissioner of JLxchangc, travels faster than the policy of tho War Department He will be retained so lorn .-as Quid is retained. The present determination of the Govern-; ment is to make no m.ore exchanges nhtil.tho mill lory status rights of our colored troops are definitely settled. For several days past, Capt. Schutc’s delcc- lives have been on the track of a notorious rebel ordnance officer named Lengstav, who came from Richmond to Washington to col lect rents, perhaps for renegade “Wash ingtonians’* now in Dixie. His mission was successful. He gathered $150,000 and was on his way South via Baltimore, where he was arrested by the detectives. Coh Fish, Pro vost-Marshal of that city, sent him South via Harper’s Ferry, with all the money on him. There is much desire to know here why a* rebel army officer with so large a pile is sent ■ to a destination ho desires,to reach at our - Government’s expense. . Washington, Nov. 28.—The condition of the President, who has been confined to his chamber for several days by sickness, seem ed to he much Improved to-day, and to prom ise an early recovery., There is nothing In the symptoms of his ailment to excite the' fears of his friends.

FROM CAIRO AND BELOW. . --r*. [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Caxbo, HI., Nov. 28,1863. The steamer War Eagle arrived this morn ing, and brought Memphis dates to afternoon of the 25th. The steamer Tecnmseh was burned at the levee In Natchez. It would appear that the steamer had on board thirty-five hundred bales of cotton, bound for New Orleans, and finding she was too heavily laden the officers put into Natchez. Port of the cargo was be ing taken off, when fire was accidentally com municated to the cotton,* and the entire lot, along with the steamboat, was quickly con sumed.

Rosinstine & Tobias of gold and European exchange, was lost night arrested upon tho steamer Vonphnl by pro vost-marshal Capt Talmade, and now occu pies comfortable quarters hi the Cairo gnard house, where he will be accommodated until such time as he clears up the mystery. There was a rumor on the streets yesterday that a large force of guerillas threatened Charleston, Mo., only about a dozen mild from here; but tho story is probably false. The steamer Telegraph, No. S, sunk at Osceola day before yesterday. She had on board twenty thousand bushels of oats for the Government, as freight}. nearly all of which may prove injured if notdost. Tho steamerSt Louis, which arrived at Memphis Wednesday morn mg from New Or leans, was fired into by guerillas on her pas sage a short distance below Rodney. Tho guerillas numbered about fifteen, and several shots passed through the captain’s room, but fortunately he was absent at the time. The boat made all speed and soon was out of reach.

A dispatch was received in this city this morning by Chief of Police James Ruffin, stating that Gen. John H. Morgan and six others escaped from the Colnmbns Peniten tiary last night. The names of the prisoners who escaped with Morgan arc os follows: Capt. J. C. Bennett, Capt. S. B. Taylor, Capt Ralph Sheldon, Capt. L. H. Hines, Capt L. D.. Hokersmlth, Capt. G. S. Magee. Colonel Dick Morgan, and the sis captains who were confined in the lower range of cells, had, by means of two small knives, dug through the floors of their cells, which Is composed of cement and nine incher of brick work. Underneath the cells, is an air chamber, extending the whole length - of the building. Of this fact.-the prisoners seem' to have been aware. Qaco in the air chamber, one of them could crawl to its. ter minus and dig down in the. soft earth with his knife until the bottom of the foundation of the wall was reached; then, digging out under, the thing was completed. Meanwhile, ropes had been manufactured of the bed tick ing. and all arrangements were complete for their final escape. Everything being in read-, inefis by hist evening, only a little strategy was necessary for the .escape of.Qencral.Mpr gan. He occupied a cell on the.sccond range, mst over the one occupied by Ids brother Dick. Last evening, as.tho prisoners were being locked up for the- night the Morgans were allowed to exchange cells with each other. After Dick had seen everything prepared, he permitted his brother John to take his place. Some time during the night the prisoners crawled through the hole they had dag under Ihc wall, but had skillfully concealed, taking their rope with them. They escaped from the prison immediately between the mala building and the female department. Once in the yard, and their escape was com paratively easy. They went to the southwest corner of the enter wall, near the big gate, and threw their rope over the top,•■where it secured itself on one of the spikes. On this rope, and by the aid of some timbers near at hand, they clambered to the.top, and. easily dcsccncd on the outside. There arc noguorda on the outer walls after a certain hour. The prisoners were dressed ir* citizens’ clothes and not in prison habiliments, Capt Hines, who Ip, a mason an 3 bricklayer, seems to have had tharge of the work which resulted in the escape of the prisoners.

The regiment was organized at Comp Douglas, io this city, under orders bearing.date September, It ßl, but its formation was not really commenced . till, about the beginning of December, Just two years. ago. It remained there till the following March, at which time the-rbster contained tho names of near-, ly five hundred one-half, or perhaps twer thirds of whoiu wcre recruited m, If not from, Chi-, cago. __ fii 1862, the regiment moved to Campßnt ler st Springfield, and was formerly organized there, frlefc that station about Jane 26th TorMar tinsbnnr.Virginiav remaining there till Qen.. tee’s first raid Into Maryland, when the place was evac uated under Gem. Julios White after severalacrere skirmishes. The regiment then went to Harper’s Ferry and remained there till the night before tho surrender, when it cut its way out through the ranks of the rebels. On tho succeeding mendng it cn countered Longstreet’s ammunition train on the Hagerstown road and captured the largest portion, taking It to Greencastle, Pennsylvania. It then returned to Join Gen. McClellm'a army, and reached during the last day’*-battle at Antic tarn It was then stationed at Williamsport for some months, after which it moved to Dumfries Station, Virginia, where, nndw Lieut. CoU Davis, a successful stand was made against the attack of the Confederate Gen. Smart, whoso force was obliged to retreat, tho regiment sustaining bat little loss. The Army of the Potomac was then on the Rappahannock, and the position at Dumfries, was on the extreme left wing; the cavalry was on the look-out for Stuart's raid, defending the tear and protecting communication with the base of the base of the army movement. The regiment then, went into winter quarters at Bone Plaines, where it remained till the time of Stone* man’s raid. Then, under the lead of Lieut.. Col. Davis, K undertook an independent excursion, and stands credited with havhH* ■ done the best service of any detachment on that j mission. It Is not necessary to go into details of ; this matter, with which the public is already so a- : miliar; Uis sufficient to say that the regiment went nearer to Richmond than any other body of our troops, and bivoacked In their advanced poet dur- ■ ini? one night. After that achievement it was sent | toTHouccster, opposite Yorktown, to join the com- ; nacd of General King, where U remateed awhile, tho Lieutenant Colonel making his well remember ed visit to Chicago to look after the recruiting of a third battalion, which had just been authorized. During bis absence that portion of the which was fit to march was ordered to join the m n anny;abouttwo hundred dismounted men were eft behind at Gloucester. pp ben Col, Davis returned to Washington jj C re ccivtdordere to bring them forward, the rejri! pen’, was pnee pore united.

Soon after this an expedition was sent to Sonth Anna to de stroy the bridge there, and rebel’ property in gen eral ; this was under the command of Col. Spear of the 11th Pennsylvania cavalry. Col. Davis was as signed to the command of a battalion of Massa chusetts cavalry together with his own, and co-op eratcd with Col. Shear in the raid. They succeeded !n destroying the bridges and in capturings great .many horses with a number of prisoners; promi nent among whom were Gen. Vra.

Tho regiment then Joined Meade's army, being assigned to Buford’s command. . Tho regiment was at Gettysburg and shared in tho honors of that contest. Since that time it has been separated Into two parts, till the order cam£ to return to Illinois for reorganization. Detachments have been In every caralry fight that has bceir fought. One detachment was with Gen. Kilpat rick, and shared In seventeen engagements in the • space of three or four days, while Aleado wa? press- * !ng Lee across tho river, after the battle of Gettys burg, they performed feats; too, at Brandy Station, at Aldle, and Mlddleborough, It is upon this record that the regiment is sent home to ne filled up, standing, as it does, with one of the very highest character of anyone corps in the service, when filled it will probably be attach ed to the army <# Grant, or It may see service in Texan fields. The headquarters of tho regiment have been at Washington for Unco weeks past, while the different detachments have been gather edin.
