Yesterday morning Disirct.Attorney Smith and

steamboat Office 10 the city for the purpose OF request
ing tho Directors Of the various lines Of travel and
transportation 20 co0peratc with he authorities in pre-
venting tho sbipnen. Of muDOns OF war u the Rebel
lious States. They were everywhere cordially re-
cciyed and assured by all that s1ch shipments had
been made recently, nor would any be knowingly made
for The future. The Camden and Amboy Railroad and
Adams Express Company communicate more directly
with The South than any other Companies. The Di-
rectos ofthese posiiv Informed the officials that
AIMS ammunition would be accepted as freight I'M
less smugged over the routes in surreptious packages
The Companies further expresscdthemse've5 as gym
pa;bling with the Government and willing to do all
in their power to aid it, Several suspicious crafts in
the harbor are now under tho surveillance of The Mar
shal of hs being in actual possession oftwo
three vessels which, it lie supposed, abOu, sail
for Southern ports and thus M into the hands Of the
Rebels.
The most perfect understanding exists between the
Marshal aud tie Superintendent Of Police, who las
specially detailed Two experienced detectives to the
Marshals Office, and the entire Police Department are
on tho alert for the traitors who serve Southern
masters. Hundreds OF loyal citizens have throDged
Mr.. Mnnoy's Office for the past few Jaya eager to
give information regarding the movements of sls-
pee.ed persons vessels, and materials, and much Of
dis information HIS been exceedingly valuable. In
addition to tbis piles Of letters have been received
pointing ons person, who arc employed by the jed.
Davis Government. Ore OF these letters led 10 the
seizure Of the Autographed form OF the Confederate
States Register on Sunday evening. Our citizens
may be asured that with yigant police and ener-

The Jo'Hnol copies the above para

of sacrifice aud patriotism, remarks :
The sad pictare is hardly oserdrawn
or oycrcolnred. We have labored under
every disadvantage which could unnerve
patriotism: we have been compelled to
wrcstle with the hottest instincts Of ma
turc. and we have seen our loved md
cherished ones scduced bv wiley traitors
from the pqths of loyalty and taught to
believe that vows of allegiance are Of rs
LIGHT gard ms lovers periurics Under
these discoulag ements, with the rebel
line Of attack buIwarked by the breasts
of our fathers, brothers. children aud
friends, and with the certain knowledge
that the more glorious cur victory, the
more desolate will be our once hanpv
homes. Kentucky has shown Spartan
devotedness and the tirmness of n Brutus,
for every beat Of Tie martial drum re
echoes to her heart like the funeral muf-
fled march, Ind every order TO the charge
Iacerates MS keenly as did the wave of
the noble Romans hand which signalIei

WOODEN MITTESs.--An officer from
West Point, who commands one Of the
finest regiments in the service. suggests
that wooden mittens for the soldiers will
be greatly needed when the cold weather
begins. VIII not nj who can employ
themselves in this way, help to furnish
five hundred thousand pairs! They
should be knit with one finger to allow q
free use of the first finger aud thumb. 1t
IS said there were moro soldiers disabled
in the Crirnean war from frost-btten fin
gers than from any other one cause.
