The announcement that President Davis is about to

nfeigned satisfaction. The people see 10 this step that

The noble heart of Davis bleeds for the reverses sus

wretch whose wckedness has enaied much disaster
and boodshed upon two countries be is keeny alive to

WHAT We GOT AT BOWLING GREEN.-Our
success at Bowling Green, writes correspon-
dent, is much more important than at first
supposed, viewing it merely in reference to
what property we have taken possession of.
The rebels did not destroy as much of their
stores as imagine, but concealed them in
var ious places in the town and neighborhoed,
hoping that they might escape the viglant
eyes OF our quartermasters and commissaries.
But their hopes were vain. Such quantities of
provisions of all sorts. -four, pork, &c, have
been found. that we should have no difficulty
in subsisting our army for a considerable time,
even if we should receive no supplies whatever
from the north. In every imaginable place
these articles have been found-up in garrets,
down In cellars, in wells, in cisterns, in houses
belonging to profesSed Union me n, and indeed
in every situation which any individual would
be apt to select as suitable for concealment.
This organized system of hiding was not con
tined to the town. "a great many hundred
bags and barrels of corn were disc covered con-
ceaIed in the woods in the vicinity. 1t was
astonishing how speedily and surely thes
were hunted up. No matter whether the
hiding place was one, two or dozen miles of,
the hidden goods were smeled out, and a
party was soon the way for the purpose OF
bringing them in. | shall not pretend to est-
mate the valu, of the property thus captured.
| have not seen the whole OF it, but have been
informed that little less than a hundred thou
sand dollars worth have been found.

A NEW LETTER ENvELoPE.-A new style OF
letter envelope has recently been invented,
and is being introduced. The envelope is
open at the end only; and when the letter is
slipped in, the overlap is so contrived that the
stamp is laid upon it, in the manner of seal.
Thus the adhesiveness of the stamp is guaran-
ty for the security of the envelope. But by
an additional contrivance, the overlap is so ar
ranged that portion of the stamp with which
it is sealed faStens to the letter beneath and
in opening the envelope, the stamp, on which
a postmark and date is impressed, remains,
not on the envelope, where it is useless, but
on the letter, where il is often of great impor-
tance to business men, who need to prove the
date of mailing of letter remittance.

SLAvE-CATcHISG IN THE ARMY.-The Pitts
burg Gazette says: 'sThe prompt passage
through the House of Mr.. Blair's bill to pre-
vent slave catching in the army is one Of the
most cheering signs of the times. The oppo-
nents of the bill were headed, as usual, y the
inevitable Vallandigham, whose secession
proclivities are matters OF history. This sub
iect should have been attended to long ago,
but it comes in good time now, when our ar
mics are moving into slave territory. We
hope the Senate will put the bill through with
the praise WORTHY promptnesS OF the House;
We trust Congress viii follow up this good
work by abolishing slavery in the District Oh
Coium bia. Whatever reason Pro-siayery men
MANY find for non interference with slavery IN
the States, they can find none worthy of atten-
tion for keeping up such a barbarous and DIS
graceful institution in the Capital city Of the
Nation, where it is standing insult to the
twenty millions Of citizens of the free States.
Away with it, ye trusted men OF Congess-
Never adjourn until that foul blot is wiped ont.

CORRESPONDENTS OF THE "JounNAL."
HARRISBURG, MARCH 8, LEG

H.RRIsBuRs, MARCH 3, 1862.
| Dp.p JouRyaL:-The Legislation of the
last week has been very little improvement on
the nravions. so far the interest of your
readers is concerned but there is other news
| of most startling nature, and which may
have treadng upon its heels news of still
greater Importance. We are on the eve of a
great battle, and one that is likely to termi-
nate the rebellion. An impression has gone
abroad that the rebels will retreat to r Richmond.
If, h7wever, they make stand this side OF it
in force, we shall have one of the most SAN
culinary conflicts TO chronicle that ever took
place in any age country.
During the past week a regiment arrived
from Erie, and another from kttanning-
these, together with the regiments at Camp
Curtin, and in the different camps in Philadel-
phia, are now being forwarded on to WASH
ington as fast as transportation can be secured,
and by the day this reaches your readers,
PenDsy lvania will have twelve more regiments
in the field, and great battle may have been
fought. We are looking for it every minute !;
and in order to prepare for it, joint resolution
has been passed, placing means at the disposal
of the Governor to procure Hospitals, and re-
move any Pennsylvanians who may be woun-
ded to the State for medical attendance. To
carry out this measure, the Governor has
despatched Agents to the different towns along
the lines of the Rail Roads to secure suitable
buildings for Hospitals, and large number
OF Surgeons and nurses in the cities and large
towns are holding themselves in readiness TO
go forward at a moments notice. Although
telegIaphic news is now contraband of war,
enough is known to Justify the belief that
few more days will tell the tale. The whole
army on the Potomac from Romncy to Wash
ington is moving southward
A bill was passed this week taking from
the Pennsylvania Reserve Corps, which was
formed in pursuance of an act OF Assembly in
May last, the right 10 elect their own officers,
and vesting the appointments in the Governor.
There said to be some seventy vacancies,
mostly caused by designations, in the fifteen
regiments and the commanding officers would
not order elections to fill them because the
men frequently elect unqualified officers, and
the regiments thereby become demoralized.
The investigating Committee has had the
Board of Directors of the Pennsy lvania Rail
Il DAD company before it, and quite number
of other persons, but up to this time not a
particle of evidence has been obtained TO i'm
plicate the company in using corruption to
procure legislation. The whole thing must
culminate to the entire discontinue OF those
who made such dire threats 10 lnvaldate the
Communication act by charging home bribery
and corruption upon the company.
The little bills now daily passed are of no
manner of Importance, but among them do
not see single local measure from your
neighborhood. A happy people you must be
if your want nothing. Yours, SPEcKs:

THE PoPE.-A Turin correspondent of the
Paris Presse writing on the 1st nit. says. l
have seen letter from Rome of the 2Sth JAN
nary, containing minute details respecting
the health of the Pope. 1t states that Plus
TX, has OF late been subject to frequent at
tack of fever caused by chronic indigestion.
His physician recommended exercise in the
open air on foot, or at least in carriage.
Unfortunately thePope's legs are greatly swol-
len, and lie cannot go abroad. He has to be
rolled in a chair to pass from one room to an
other. 1t is not true that he has been bled, as
reported such thing was never proposed
1t has been remarked. not without uneasiness.
that for several days he las been affected by
disposition to somnolency, and cannot by any
means be diverted from yielding to it. This,
l am told, is the most serious symptom of the
HOLY Fathers malady

RE-OpENING TRADE.-It isregarded pI obablc
that as soon as the rebel armies are beaten out
of Tennessee, the order of Mr.. Chase, preven-
ting the exL Lortation of provisions, medicines
and the like into The South, viii be rescnded. /.
so far as Tennessee is concerned and that
that whole country will again be opened to
commercial transactions. AS it is possible to
draw supplies of cotton and tobacco from at
least one-half of the South by way of TenneS-
see, the opening of trade in this quarter would
soon produce marked effect upon the general
industry of the country. A million of bales
OF cotton could easily be gathered by inland
commerce from the South, and this amount
furnished to our factories would again set them
going, with portion to spare for the English
market. With block ade on the coast aud an
active internal commerce, the North will be
benefited in every way first, by the carriage
of cotton, tobacco, hemp, and other southern
products through the country. and their trans
portation to Europe and second, by the sale
of goods to such of the Southern States as
are thus re- opened, which are now in great
need of them.

THAr's so.-The Difference between the Re
publican party and the few desperate men who
still have the andacity to claim the title OF
Democracy, is, that while the Republicans are
striving in the Cabinet, in Congress, and oD
the battle field, to crush out the rebellion, the
leaders OF the Democracy (O are laborlng,
with the aid of slander and misrepresentation.
to crush out the Republicans. While the he
publican party is eDdeavoring TO counteract
the influences and the cause of rebellion, the
Democratic party is struggling to shield it and
give it strength. What honest man can long
pause in his preferences and duty With such
evidences before him.
