ade runner trying to get into Wilmington.— 
She gave chase, and the rebels to save themselves 
ran her ashore and set her on tire. Lieut. Devens 
boarded her and extinguished the flames, but not 
before considerable damage had been done to 
both vessel and cargo. She proved to be the 
British steamer Ceres, a now and elegant boat, 
loaded with clothing, arms and ammunition. 
She is a double propelior, with engines all below 
the water line. Sho was built in England, under 
the direction of Collamer, and was intended foT 
a rebel cruiser. She cost $250,000. Her engine 
cost $10,000, and, together with part of her 
cargo, will be saved. 
Acting Volunteer Lieut, Eaton, commanding 
steamer Circassian, reports that on the morning 
of the 9th, in lat. 32 deg. 4S min., long 78 deg. 
west, he captured the English steamer Minna. 
She was taken without a chase, as she was under 
the Circassian's guns before she was aware of it. 
An attempt was made to sink her by her officers, 
but they were prevented. She is of English 
build, nine hundred turns burthen, and was rated 
a No. 1 steamer. The cargo consists of hoop 
iron, vitriol, hardware, borax, powder, aloes, etc. 
Her papers could not be found, as they had 
probably been thrown overboard. Sufficient has 
been found to prove that she is from Nassau to 
some Southern port.

NEWS OF THE WEEK. 
The Army in Virginia.— A gentlemen who 
has just arrived from the army says some of our 
cavalry still occupy Culpepper, and that our 
pickets extend several miles beyond. The posi¬ 
tion of our troops remains unchanged, but there 
are indications of changes with a view to the 
greater comfort of the army. New regulations 
will be Issued in regard to trade. 
A reconnoitring party sent out some days 
ago to perfect our maps in the region of Culpep¬ 
per, along the base of the Blue Ridge, aa far as 
Sperryville aud Little Washington, returned to 
camp on Friday. The officers accompanying 
the expedition state that they encountered no 
ene.ny in force, but fell in with Revera! squads of 
partisans belonging to the 6th Virginia Cavalry. 
Considerable complaint has been expressed by 
our regimental quartermasters of the scarcity of 
underclothing for soldiers. They attribute It to 
derelict contractors. 
Leaves of absence are freely granted to officers 
and men for short periods. 
Reports are current in camp that Gen. Long- 
street has succeeded in etlecling a junction with 
General Lee. but after due inquiry they cannot 
be traced to any reliable source. 
The following rules control trade in the army: 
Provost Marshal's Oftiok, ? 
December 7th, 1883. J 
Until further orders the following rules will be 
observed: 
1st Every sutler or sutler's clerk will confine 
himself to the orders for his own command and 
to the h«*adquarfers of the corps, division or 
brigade which he has been designated to. 
2d. The officers’ orders must be accompanied 
by a duplicate solid invoice, which must state 
t,tie numtier of officers ordering, and must bo ap¬ 
proved by the general officer in command. 
3d. If bills are presented by sutler’s employees 
they must be provided with written authority 
from Bu'lers. 
4th. Orders from corps, division or brigade 
headquarters must be from the bauds of one 
having written authority to act as agent by such 
headquarters. " M. B. Patrick, 
Prevost Marshal General. 
The rumors of the removal of General Meade 
have died out, and it is now generally believed 
that be will remain in command for the winter. 
The fact that General Meade occupied a perfectly 
independent, position,and offered to resign again 
and again, has helped him very much with the 
President. He has boldly defended his recent 
campaign, not even asking for lenient judgment 
upon it. The whole subject is dropped for the 
present. 
Major General Butler has issued an order for 
the enrollment of all able-bodied male citizens 
in his Department, colored and white, between 
eighteen and forty-five years of age, to be con¬ 
scripted January 1st. 
Department of the South.— The Tribune's 
Folly Island correspondent writes as follows 
under date of Dec. 15th: 
Saturday morning, while the tide was receding, 
one of the privates of the Third Rhode Island 
Battery discovered from Putnam, on the beach, 
what he thought might be a brass field piece. 
He asked and obtained permission to go and 
Bee. He armed himself with a spade and in a 
few minutes time revealed a beautiful brass 12- 
pounder. Twelve men were immediately de¬ 
tailed to carry it into the fort, whioh was douc 
successfully under a blink fire from Moultrie. 
As soon as is was in the fort it was mounted in a 
good position, ready at a moment’s notice to be 
used against Its old friends. The spade in the 
course of the day brought to the surface five 
hundred rounds of solid shot that just suited the 
calibre of the piece. It is thought that the rebels 
before evacuating Gregg buried a quantity of 
ammunition of all sorts. A few days will decide 
the matter. 
The storm and high tides had the effect «,f 
washing away some of Admiral Dahlgren’s 
greatest enemies. Morris Island, for a mile,'is 
lined on the beach with immense logs, thirty feet 
long and eighteen inches thick, fastened together 
by very strong bands of iron. No traces can 
ire discovered where the torpedoes have been 
fastened. 
A c^nesffondent of the Boston Herald , dating 
off Charleston, Dec. 18th. says: 
I can say for a certainty that the reports sent 
north to the effect that Commodore Dahlgren 
has nearly decided not to operate with the Iron 
dads again, but will send them South, perhajB 
to Mobile, are entirely false. He is prepaiing 
for a great, movement, and the ironclads will not 
leave this Department till the old flag floats over 
Charleston or its ruins. Dahlgren is very active 
and there are many movements going on in the 
fleet which the Folly Island correspondent knows 
nothing of. In due season the black dogs will 
be booming well up in the harbor of Charleston. 
The rebel rams remain under the protection of 
the guns of Fort Johnson so that our monitors 
cannot get at them. 
Our guns have full possession of the harbor, 
and not a vessel is seen moving about. 
In the city at night darkness alone prevails, as 
by order of General Beauregard the lamps are 
not lighted. No lights are allowed in the houses, 
so through the night the people lay and hear 
nothing but the roar of cannon and the explosion 
of shells. Nothing but famine and fear reign in 
Charleston. Were it not for the military leaders 
Charleston would soon be surrendered. General 
Beauregard and his leaders are determined the 
city shall not be surrendered. All places of busi¬ 
ness are closed in the city. The weather there 
is fine. 
Advices from Beaufort, N. C., report that on 
the forenoon of the 6th the United States gun.

Whennnw Ismee dissolved or transformed old organiza¬ 
tions through the spontaneous uprising of the people of 
the Free .States against the repudiation of the Missouri Re 
strictioii, Tint TuinrrNK heartily participated in that move¬ 
ment, and was known as Republican. When the long 
smoldering conspiracy to divide and destroy our country or 
reduce it entire to complete abasement to the Slave Tower 
culminated in overt treason and rebellion, it naturally, 
necessarily regarded resistance to this conspiracy ai para¬ 
mount to all other commie rations, nnd devoted all its ener¬ 
gies and efforts to the maintenance of onr Union In every 
great controversy which liar divided our country, H has 
been found on that, side which naturally commands the 
sympathy and support of the large majority of senool- 
housea aud the decided minority of grog-shops, nnd so 
doubtless will bn to tho hist. 
Ardently desiring and striving for the early and enduring 
adjustment of our National distractions, Tim Trihunb 
leaves the time, the nature and th*’ coui'itioxm of that ad- 
juitment impllclty to those lawfully in authority, confiding 
in their wisdom and patriotism, anxious to aid them to the 
utmost in their arduous responsibilities anil not to embar¬

that the total anil final extirpating t ,j Slavery is thn true

by another neither Sumner’s, nor Whiting's, nor auy of

foes—but, etjinrllng the American People to have faith in

Department of the Gulf.— The U. S. gun¬ 
boat Kanawha (imped at New Orleans with the 
prize schooner Wenona, captured while bound 
from Mobile to Havana. Her cargo consists of 
244 bales of cotton, 50 bbls. of resin, 14 bbls. of 
turpentine and §5,000 in money. Until within a 
short time the schooner has been used as a rebel 
gunboat at Mobile. 
The black frost will considerably shorten the 
sugar crop in Louisiana. 
The receipts of cotton at New Orleans since 
the first of September have been over 43,000 
bales. 
Three or four thousand troops, under Wirt, 
Adams, Crosby and Logan, appeared in the vi¬ 
cinity of Natchez ou the 11th, attacked our troops 
and wero repulsed and pursued. It is said we 
took BOO prisoners. 
The special correspondent of the Boston Trav¬ 
eler, under date of the 12th inst, says that Gen. 
Wash hurtle holds the coast of Texas from the 
Rio Grande to within 100 miles of Galveston. >’ 
Another division of the 13th corps starts for 
the Texas coast to-day, and it is expected that 
Galveston is the next place to be put,down in the 
history of the war as having been reduced by tho 
Federals. 
General Franklin is at Hiberia with the 4th 
division. 
The United .States gunboat Kanawha captured 
the schooner Alusta or Wynona off Mobile Bay 
The Wynona has been awaiting an opportunity 
for raauy weeks to escape from Mobile, and was 
captured soon afl*r crossing the bar. She bad 
neither Ing-tjnok nor custom. house papers. The 
supposed owner, Dayd, was a passenger. Her 
cargo consists of cotton, resin and turpentine, and 
is valuable. About $5 600 in specie was found 
on the passengers, also a large amount of railroad 
bonds. 
The West ano South-west.—C ol. Watkins, 
commanding the Kentucky brigade, returned to 
Chattauooga on the 14th from a cavalry recon- 
noisance as far as Lafayette. He captured a 
rebel signal station and six officers and forty pri¬ 
vates. The balance of the large force of rebels 
fled. 
A rumor prevails thatLongstreet,in his retreat 
from Knoxville, lost 4,000 prisoner*, aud nearly 
all bis wagons and trains. 
Little Rock, Ark., advices of the 5th, state that 
the fear of an attack on that place is no longer 
entertained. 
The rebel Gen. McCrea, who has been raiding 
between the Arkansas and White Rivers, was 
attacked sometime 6ince by Col. Blycke, of the 
3d Missouri, and whipped. Col. Blycke captured 
3 pieces of artillery.

Washington Matters.— The authorities here 
have dispatches from Gen. Grant, dated the I7th. 
They do not indicate any change in the slate of 
affairs. Gen. Grant had been In direct, commu¬ 
nication with G«n. Foster, and had there been 
fighting between Longetreet aud our forces, as 
the press dispatches from Cincinnati state, Gon. 
Grant would doubtless havesentsuch dispatches 
here. The fact that he says nothing gbont such 
engagement, induced the belief that tho state¬ 
ments referred to above are exaggerated. 
Two hundred rebel prisoners were sent from 
the Old Capitol Prison on the 1‘Jth to Philadel¬ 
phia to take the oath of allegiance. This makes 
418 who have been sent to the same place this 
week for the same purpose. 
Maj. Gen. Hitchcock has returned from For¬ 
tress Monroe, having given his official sanction 
to a plan of GeD. Butler’s, by which it was hoped 
that our suffering soldierB will be immediately 
relieved from rebel prisons. Gen. Butler is to 
send to City Point COO or 800 confined rebel pris¬ 
oners with an oiler to Commissioner Ould to ex¬ 
change them man for man. If this experiment 
proves successful, exchanges on this basis will be 
resumed. The statement that any instructions 
have been given tending to ignore the rights as 
prisoners of war of the colored soldiers whom the 
rebels have taken prisoners, whether bond or 
free, is incorrect. On the contrary, the most 
stringent orders have recently been issued un¬ 
der which the rebel authorities are to be held iu 
strict account, with regard to their colored pris¬ 
oners. 
A very large proportion of rebels in our bands, 
not less than a third of them, it is said, are desir¬ 
ous of enlisting in the nary, and it is understood 
the Secretaries of War and Navy have agreed to 
permit them to do so. Gen. Masten is reported 
to have said that he could furnish 1,000 sailors 
from the prisoners’ camp at Lookout Point, of 
which he is in charge.
