The Cunard steamship- Persia, Captain Judkins, which landed troops at Bic, and then went to Hali- fax, has arrived from the latter port with advices to the 10th inst. She made the run in seven days 23 hours. The steamship Vanderbilt had landed at New York 3,600 bales of Sea Island cotton, collected at Beaufort. The Rinaldo, with Mason and Slidell on board, sailed from Princetown on the 2d inst., a strong gale from N.E. blowing off shore. She had not reached Halifax on the 10th, and Captain Judkins supposes she has borne down smith for Bermuda, or some other of the West India Islands. The Asia arrived at Halifax on the Ist inst. with head-quarters and one battery,loth Brigade, Royal Artillery, andilie 3d Battalion Military Train. The Adriatic arrived on the 31st ult. with 1,100 men, and left for St. John's, New Brunswick, on the Bth inst. The Magdalena arrived on the 4th, with the 2d Battalion 16th Regiment and Artillery. The Melbourne arrived on the sth, having put into Prince Edward's Island for coal. The Australasian landed 1,100 men at St. John's, New Brunswick, about the 4th, and reached New York on the 9th. Major General Romney landed at St. John's. The 62d Regiment, Bno strong, from Halifax, having arrived at St. John's, proceeded overland for Quebec. The regiment reached Woodstock, and could proceed no further owing to the bad state of the weather and the roads. It would proceed when the weather improved. The Parana, with the Scots Fusileers and Artil lery, arrived at Sydney, Cape Breton, on the 6th, and, after coaling, would proceed to St. John's on or about the 10th. The Canada, with Royal Engineers and A r till ery , arrived on the Bth. The Cleopatra, with the 2d Battalion 17th Regi ment, arrived on the 9th, and would remain al Halifax. The Adriatic, with General Lord William Paulet and the Guards, arrived at St. John's, New Bruns wick, on the 9th, and commenced disembarkin g . Her Majesty's ship Orpheu s arr i ve d a t H a lif ax en the Bth. The Himalaya reached Bermuda on the 6th, and, after landing troops, proceeded on the 9th for Jamaica and Barbadoes. The Challenger, Bulldog, and Steady were at Nassau on the 25th alt. The Immortalite sailed on the 26th ult. from Bermuda. The Donegal arrived on the 30th ult. from England via Jamaica, where she transferred the marines of the expeditionary battalion to some other vessel. The Nimble and Spiteful left for Havannah ; the St. George, Ariadne, and Jason, for the Gulf of Mexico. The flagship Nile was at Bermuda on Ist inst. On the 27th the French ships of war Massena, Guerriere, L'Ardeur, and L'Astrea, the former carrying Admiral De la Graviere, arrived at Havannah. The British ships Challenger, Spiteful, Steady, and Plover also ar rived the same day. General M'Clellan.iad recovered sufficiently to tide out. _ On the 3d an exchange of 239 prisoners took place near Shipping Point on the James River. The Fcderals were forwarded to Baltimore, where they were well received. A letter from Baltimore professes to give a correct account of the treatment of the prisoners while at Richmond : " The prisoners, according to these accounts, were crowded together in tobacco warehouses, with no thing to sleep on bet the floor, and with but scanty covering. They had no conveniences for washing or for personal cleanliness. Their food was scanty and of the worst possible description, except the bread, which was fresh and sweet. From the time of their capture, July 21, until Dec. 15, they were liable to be shot if seen at the windows. At the later date, according to the Richmond Enquirer and the Rich mond Dispatch, in both of which papers the state ment appears, an order was issued by the military authorities forbidding this shooting in future. One case was related to me of exceeding barbarity. It was that of a young man whose self-denying kind ness and attention to his comrades had won for him the respect and attachment of all. He was sit ting at an open window smoking a pipe, but not leaning out of the window. Without the least pro vocation some ruffian in the street fired at him. The ball passed through his head, killing him in• stantly. Dr. Higginbotham happened to be in the room at the time and witnessed the shocking scene. There was a Swiss sergeant in charge of the pri soners, whose brutality is attested by them all. It was his duty to assemble them and call the roll every morning. If any were the least tardy in get ting up, he would strike them over the head with the butt of his musket. His language uniformly was of the most vulgar and outrageous character, " Get up, you God d—d s—s of b—s," was his usual style. When any of the prisoners died their bodies were carried out to -the deadhouse, but no one knew what became of them, or whether they were buried or not. Some of the men state that when coffins were provided the bodies were thrust into them without tenderness or decency, and if a leg or an arm happened to be shattered or broken, it was rudely doubled up or crushed in. Such is the dark side of the picture. But there is, for the honour of humanity, a brighter side also. The prisoners all concur in the statement that they were occasionally visited by ladies, who never failed to leave behind them some token of their 'angel visits.' They brought them cakes, jellies, and other delicacies, and often when the stern sentinels would refuse them admission they would seize the presented bayonet with their little hands, turn it aside, and thus eluding the guard, make their visit, Other ladies, in riding past in their carriages, threw bouquets of flowers in at the windows. One lady, with two beautiful daughters, is particularly men tioned as having been kind to the prisoners. Some of the prisoners, under a guard, were allowed to go to a spring for water. The guard remaining at some distance, women would occasionally meet them at the spring. One of these women told them that she had a Union flag concealed in her house, and that if the Union troops came to Richmond she would display it from her housetop. All of the prisoners speak in terms of the deepest gratitude of the kind attention of Dr. Higginbotham, a well known physician of Richmond. He was constant in his attentions to them from first to last,—so much so, indeed, that his loyalty was suspected, and he was put under arrest by the military authorities. He was subsequently released, how ever, by the civil authorities, and resumed his kind ministrations. On Thanksgiving-day some kind persons sent several roast turkeys to the prisoners. Captain Warner, also, the Commissary-General, frequently sent in presents of cakes, &c. The men applied to him frequently for little favours, which were oftener granted than refused. The men seemed remarkably grateful for any little kindness sort. They Tripp, speak, for instance, in high of te th rms is of Surgeon of Scranton, Pennsyl vania, Bth Pennsylvania Regiment, who they say supplied them with many comforts from his own purse. Some of the men state that they got letters from friends at home stating that money had been enclosed, but the latter had been abstracted. Others who had gold sent them say they never got it,but got instead the worthless Southern shinplasters. Dur ing the whole time of their imprisonment the fidelity of the men to their country never wavered. Not one of them would have asked to be released till the Government saw proper to do so. They would cheerfully have remained there and died in prison rather than have our Government release them by acknowledging the rebels as belligerents. So they say, at least; and it may be that a know ledge of that fact has made the Government more tardy in exchanging them than it otherwise would have been. They say that even now they do not know on what . terms they are released, except that they have taken no oath whatever. They are going on to Washington, to report themselves to head quarters, and to obey whatever requirement may be made of them. Their desire to re-enter the army, however, and to fight is universal. • They say they are in for the war, and they are burning to revenge their wrongs." Some sharp skirmishing had taken place between the opposing pickets on the Potomac. On the 3d a body of Federals, 800 strong, under General Weber, advanced from Fortress Monroe to Big Bethel, and dispersed the Confederate pickets. Breastworks nearly half a mile in length were noticed. The reconnoitring party then returned. On the 6th the Confederates and Federals ex changed artillery fire at Hancock, Maryland. Advices from Hilton Head to the 3d inst. report that the navy was actively engaged recontioltrink along the coast and rivers, having occasional skir mishes with riflemen. On the 26th, despite there being 11 vessels off Charleston, the Confederate privateer Ella Warley, alias the Isabel, succeeded, after several endeavours, in getting away. The Pocahontas was sent in chase, but abandoned the pursuit. On the 2d inst. she succeeded in returning to Charleston, although chased and shelled. On the lst inst. a combined military and naval ex pedition, under Brigadier-General Stevens and Cap tain Rodgers, of the Wabash, advanced on Port Royal, and, after a short resistance, took possession of the Confederate batteries. General Stevens then advanced within six miles of the Charleston Rail road. The Confederates then requested a brief time for the burial of the dead, after which they fell back upon the fortifications which were near the railroad, leaving one large gun in the hands of the Federals. The Confederate force was estimated at 8,000 men, under Generals Gregg and Pope, and the Federal force at 4,500 men. The latter last nine men wounded, one, a Major Watson, mortally. Accord ing to the latest report, General Stevens was wai ing for reinforcements. The Southern papers give a somewhat different version of the affair. Private despatches received at Augusta, Georgia, from Pocataligo, South Caro lina, dated January 1, state that the Unionists at tempted to advance from Port Royal Ferry, but were repulsed by the 14th Regiment of South Caro lina Volunteers, under command of Colonel Jones. The Confederate loss was 15 killed and wounded. One Yankee was taken prisiner, but their loss is not otherwise given. The following is a despatch to the Richmond Examiner : " VICTORY IN SOUTH CAROLINA. "Charleston, S.C., Jan. 2. " Fighting on the coast commenced yesterday. Thirty-five hundred of the enemy landed on the main, near Port Royal Ferry. They were met with the bayonet by two regiments of our troops. The Yankees fled precipitately, throwing away their arms as they ran. They were driven into their boats. The howitzers on the boats opened fire on our troops, killing six and wounding twelve South Carolinians. The enemy's loss is about the same. To-day the enemy landed in much larger force at the same place. Gen. Gragg's brigade fell back a short distance to an eligible position. The pickets were skirmishing all day. The enemy design an attack on the railroad, and cannot avoid a battle." The Richmond Examiner, under the head of " War Rumours," says— " Later in the day another report obtained circu lation that a battle had been fought in the neigh bourhood of Port Royal, South Carolina, and that the enemy, who were advancing inland, had been repulsed and a great victory had resulted to our arms. This report, although not authenticated by any despatches received at the War Department, obtained considerable credit last night, on the strength of private despatches alleged to have been received in the eity, giving an account of the engage ment; We are not disposed, however, to credit the report without further and more distinct confirma tion of it than yet received. " P.S.—Since the foregoing paragraph was writ ten we have received a special despatch from our Charleston correspondent fully confirming the re port, to which we are happy to refer the reader. " Passengers from Richmond who left that city on the 3d inst. state that news had been received there that Commodore Dupont landed 3,500 troops on the mainland near Port Royal Ferry on New Year's-day. An engagement ensued, in which the rebels repulsed the Union troops. On Jan. 2. the attempt was renewed with better succers, and Gen. Gregg's South Carolina Brigade was driven back with heavy loss. The Charleston Mercury has a . despatch, stating that a large force of Federals had landed on the North Edisto, and seized 'railroad station No. 4 on the Charleston and Savannah Railroad. General Lee has informed Jeff. Davis that he is confident of his ability to prevent th e Federals from advancing on Charleston or Savannah. Southern advices of the 3d inst. state that the Federals under General Butler had made advances from Ship Island, in the Mississipi Sound, to Beloxi, a small town on the coast, and had landed some thousands of men. On the Ist and 2d the artillery duel between Fort Pickens and the Confederate batteries was resumed without damage. The Federals are reported to have obtained a success at Huntersville, Western Virginia, on the 4th. The Confederates are alleged to have lost 80 in killed and wounded, and 80,000 dols worth of army stores and clothing. From St. Louis, Missouri, our advises are to the 2d instant, but they contain no information of in terest. There was no foundation for the report that a battle had been fought at Paducah, Kentucky. Part of the Louisville and Nashville Railway had been destroyed by the Confederates. The Union force, according to telegrams from Louisville of the stb, was about to advance. The fire at Nashville is reported to have occasioned damage to the extent of 700,000 dole. Advices from Cairo to the 6th instant state that General Pillow had resigned his command in the Confederate army; that all classes of men were being impressed for the military service ; and that energetic measures had been taken to oppose the advance of the Federals. Submarine batteries had been submerged between Cairo and Memphis. A powder mill exploded at New Orleans on the 29th ult. The _Richmond Examiner of the 3d alludes to the operations on the coast of the Yederal forces : "The repulse of the enemy in South Carolina is a joyful earnest of the future. Although no official accounts have been received, yet we think it true news. The Northern troops, after long hesi. tancy, have made their first attempt, at a march from the seacoast towards the interior of the State, and have received their first rebuke. Whenever and wherever they repeat the experiment, it may safely be predicted that they will arrive at a simi lar result. The Northern people and Government anticipate great effects from the naval operations on the coast, because a part of the plan was a multi plied series of successful marches and subjugations throughout the Atlantic States. They supposed that, having the ports, they would soon and easily have also the country commanded by the ports. To take possession of a harbour and a strip of wav,e waskr`' sand was the design of their armada. 'let it will be found that these are all the prizes they will or can gain for an enormous expenditure. Wherever the water is deep enough for their large ships to get within range of the hasty and insuffi cient seacoast defences of the South, they can cer tainly batter them down and land their troops. But then will end their barren glory. Whenever they attempt to march a column into the land it will inevitably come to grief. The causes are easily seen. The seacoast can never furnish a sufficient basis of operations for an efficient attack on a State in arms, unless the whole power and force of the nation that makes it is employed in the adventure. If the North could give up its whole line of land operations, take all its armies of the Potomac, Mis souri, and Ohio in vessels and transport them to the shores of Carolina, they might make with success the inroads they have planned. But we need fear nothing from columns of 10,000, 15,000, or 20,000 Bull Runners when they leave their vessels even for a distance of two miles. In no part of the Southern country, even if they could make such descent unknown and unheralded, would they find a land so destitute of men as to become their prey. We may be content and happy when we hear of similar efforts, from the rational assurance that they will arrive at parallel catastrophes. The fear that some minds entertain of the Northern fleet, and the consequences of its operations in the South, are not less without foundation than the security or indiffer ence whichthe firs tacconnt of its sailin greceived were without justification. That fleet can do mischief to the villages of the coast, but is without power to inflict a vital or even a disabling wound upon the Confederacy itself. It will cost the Northern Union many millions of money, and many a fine ship ; it will ravage a half-dozen small towns, and cause some good cotton to be burnt. But whenever the popular outcry of the North forces the generals who have charge of it to risk an advance of the smallest and mildest sort in any part of the interior country, we will have our revenge, and our enemies will get the reward of insolence and cowardice. The troops sent on this expedition, and borne by . the transports at tached to it, are, like all the troops in the field, raw and undisciplined. Now, here, as elsewhere, when ever the untrained volunteers of the South meet the untrained volunteers of the North, with an equality of numbers and commanders, the defeat of the lat ter may be assumed as a certainty. The repeated trials and proofs of this war leave no possible doubt of the individual superiority of the Southern man over the Northern man in a personal combat, and this superiority is still the only element in the battles fought between the two nations. This is our security against the fleet and army which oper rates this winter on the Southern coast. It is also our perfect and absolute defence for the present against the great force collected along our Northern frontier. So long as the armies of the Union and of the Confederacy are both composed of recruits we stand in no danger, and need entertain no appre hensions. The dark hour of our trial has not yet come. It will come whenever M'Clellan has sue ceeded in converting his Yankees into the involun tary machines known to the military science as regiments, brigades, and divisions. This is the end that he proposes to himself. This is the secret of his long delay. This is the work of his hands and his head at this moment. He may succeed in ex ecuting it completely. The most cowardly indi viduals of the most unwarlike race, when long sub jected to a rigid and methodical discipline, can be amalgamated into bodies which act with the certainty and insensibility of combinations of iron and brass moved by steam and direc ted by one human hand. There is no reason to suppose that the people of the United States are exceptions to the rule that holds good with Hindoos Muscovites, and Malays. Their separate pol troonery can be overcome by the power of military organization, and then the courage of our segre gated soldiery—however noble—may be broken like the wave on a mass of stone. Here lies the true danger of the future. While the North relies on discipline we trust still to individual superiority ; and, however brilliant the results that the last has hitherto gained, and may still secure, it will be found in the end as inefficient on the American Continent and in the 19th century as it has ever been in all other ages and all other lands." The same paper of the 2d gives a dismal account of the condition of the Confederate army on the Potomac : " The present condition of our army is a cause of severe and painful anxiety. The courage of our troops is not abated, the eagerness for the fray is not relaxed, and yet demoralization is creeping in, we fully believe, from the insane and reckless neglect of the Government to sustain and to culti vate the spirit of our soldiery. There is too much drunkenness among the officers on the Potomac,and too much vacant idling among the men. We are informed as a positive fact that in the majority of the army on the Potomac the practice of regimen tal drills has fallen into complete disuse. This alone would be sufficient to demoralize any army in circumstances such as ours. The drill is not only essential for schooling the soldier, it fulfils other vastly important and essential purposes. It de velopes and educates the physique, fortifies the sol dier against disease, and, what is perhaps the most important moral consideration of all, gives him oc cupation for a portion of his time each day, and protects him, at least measurably, against the can ker worm of the army—ennui. What can be pre dicted but utter demoralizetion for an army whose condition is that of tens of thousands of men,licing in utter idleness, grovelling in their tents, with no other occupation than what is afforded by the greasy pack of cards that is the inevitable inmate of every tent, or the yellow-covered novel, whcse wretched and perhaps filthy entertainment has more than once gone the rounds of the company ? We cannot shut our eyes to the fact that the army is becoming a name of terror and dread in the minds of our citizens. The newspapers are still filled with advertisements of bonuses for sub stitutes, although the War Department has adopted a rule restricting the number of substitutions to one in each company. The rates paid for substitutes are enormous. We are informed that they average from 200 dols to 250 dols, and we have been told of a recent instance where 1,500 dols was paid for the prompt procurement of a substitute to take the place of a private suddenly constrained to leave the army. Evidences stare us in the face of the unwil lingness of men to accept the life of famine, dirt, and vacant idleness in the army. Richmond is filled with soldiers who have come out of the hospitals, or who have got here on some pittance or other, ap plying for discharges, and striving and in all sorts of ways to get out of the array. It was but a few days ago that a soldier discharged wriggli from ng one of the hospitals here committed suicide rather than be constrained to return to the army. There is no unwillingness among our y oung men to serve their country. There are thousands who would willingly go with their lives on their sleeves to battle with the emit)" and to attest a devoted and courageous pa- triotism, but who dread to betake themselves to the wretched, half-fed life of dirt, vacancy, and idleness in the camps. This is the restraint upon volunteer ing. The Government will in vain essay to remove it by a bounty law for re-enlistments—the provi sions of which, by the way, for company reorgani• sation has already, we understand, proved a fruitful source of intrigue and demoralisation in our army _without of her measures that will reach to the root of the evil. The authorities at Richmond may assure themselves that, as long as the health of the army is neglected, and it is maintained in its dirty, sluggard condition, the drills neglected, the half rations of commissaries winked at, the rowdyism of officers passed over, and the vacancy and idleness of a ' a defensive policy' held out as rewards to volunteering, the army will not be filled and replenished but from few classes of our people. Why was it that when our soldiers • portation from the Carolinas and Louisiana to the depots at Manassas and Centreville, and could have bought sugar in New Orleans at 3c., it permitted our teahnnedd molasses, r .t a t hot Potomac tolerates or y d mai at t s ae o nuesds s eph uffe aowbfi bits All regimental geo r oidfmf iefintntthet months eamsltheep f de arrciao drills ?

It is not too late to repair them. We are firmly convinced that the reform of the condition of our army, with a wise and firm hand, and the holdirg out of rewards, not to avarice or idleness, but to the true patriotic enthusiasm of our country in the pro spect of an active military policy and of a share of military glory, will provide the best security for re enlistment and the most successful stimulant to vo lunteering. We are firmly convinced that no other measures will restore the spirit of the volunteer and enthusiasm of the country." From Venezuela we learn that Paez was still in power, but that Monegas had taken possession of two or three towns. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

LIBERIA. A conflict has taken place in the harbour of Monrovia between the Liberian Government schooner Quail and a Spanish vessel of war. The following are the facts of the case, as stated in the Message of the President of the Republic of Liberia, dated Dec. 7, 1861. The President having been informed by Prince Mannah, Chief of Gallinas (a district about 70 miles N.W. of Monrovia), that a Spanish slaver was at Gallinas Bar, sent the Quail to overhaul:her, and by that vessel she was seized. Soon afterwards her Britannic Majesty's ship Torch, Captain Smith, arrived at Gallinas in search of the same slaver, and she was burned by his orders on the 14th of June. The captain of the Quail remonstrated against this act, as the Libe rian flag was flying on board the prize, and she was in possession of a Liberian prize crew when she was boarded by uaptain Smith's lieutenant. The Presi dent states that " the commander of the Torch ex pressed his disapproval of the act of his lieutenant in taking possession of the prize after ascertaining that she was a prize to the Liberian Government schooner Quail. Though the act was, as he stated, done without his knowledge and approval, yet it having been committed, he concluded to direct her to be destroyed as aforesaid. The motive by which he was to an extent actuated in deciding upon the latter course he hoped the Government of Liberia would appreciate, as it was intended thereby to relieve the Government of Liberia from any un pleasant misunderstanding with the Spanish Go vernment, he in the name of his Government assuming the responsibility of the matter." These events occurred in June last, and on the 11th of the following September the Spanish war steamer Ceres entered the harbour of Monrovia, and fired upon the Quail, but was beaten off by that vessel and by the guns of the fort. The last news in relation to this affair is given as follows by the Liberia Herald, of Nov. 20 : " A rumour having reached Sierra Leone of several Spanish war vessels being at this port for bombardment, her Majesty's steamer Torch was immediately despatched by his excellency Governor Hill of Sierra Leone, with a message to President Benson, the purport of which we are not at liberty to give. The Torch left on the evening of Oct. 18th for Sierra Leone, bearing a message from the President of Liberia to Governor Hill. We have only to say at present that the object of the visit was gratify ing to the Government and people of Liberia. By the English mail steamer, which arrived about the middle of last month at Cape Palmas, intelligence was received from one of its officers that the Governor-General at Fernando Po was so incensed at the failure of the Ceres and her ignoble retreat from the harbour, that he was fitting up three vessels of war to capture or sink the Quail. Nothing has been seen or heard of Spanish inten tions since. FOREIGN MAIL PACKET LIST. MAILS DUE. via Marseilles F e b. 13 Brazil and Cape Verds, by British packet F e b . 3 .

The 2.15 p.m. passenger train from Lichfield was proceeding to Walsall at about the usual time, and arrived at the sttrion hero before it was known to the engine driver that anything extraordinary had happened. It was then, however, ob served that there was blood upon the wheels, and imme diately afterwards information came that a man had been smashed to pieces on the line at Ilammerwich Forge cross ing. This is a crossing level with the road, and it is sup posed that deceased was in the act of making his way across, and that he fell down on the line before the train came up. Assistance was immediately procured, and the body was carried to the Fitters' Arms Inn, llatherton street. Further information is to the effect that a young woman who lives in a cottage near the crossing saw de ceased at tho moment the engine came up, end her state ment is that it appeared as if the unfortunate man went up t the engine.—Lirminghain Post. THE WILL OP THE LATE JOHN ANDREW, OF CARBON.—We (Falkirk, Herald) hear it rumoured that the late John Andrew, who had amassed—though but a work - man—a fortune of upwards of £lO,OOO, has bequeathed his money as follow::—To his immediate relatives betwcrn .£l,OOO and £2,000 ; to the Synod of the United Pres b yt e rian Church, for the furtherance of its foreign mission , £b00; to the Scottish Society for the Conversion of Israel, £5OO ; t.) the Falkirk Charity and Begged Schools and Female Lenevolent Society, Cl3OO, for equal division ; the reversion, alter paying stamp and other dues, amounting to between £5,000 and £7,000, goes to the Edinburgh Bible Society, instituted 1809. Deceased was one of the most exact Bible critics in the district. He made the Bible a peculiar study, and was a formidable debater on theology. He seems to have had a special interest in the Bible Society, which re ceives the largest bequest.
