Stuari's Cavalry within Twelve
Miles Of Alexandria.
The Repulse of the Enemy at Dumfries.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 80,

W AshlNGIbN, DeC op.
Intelligence from Alexandria represents
that Stuart's cavalry force, with artillery, were
yesterday camped twelve miles from there,
not far from Burk's Station, on the line of the
Orange & Alexandria Railroad.
Two rebel cavalrymen, wearing uniforms
similar to our own, came into and rode about
Alexandria Sunday. They did not remain
long.
A telegram from the headquarters of the
army of the Potomac says matters continue
quiet on the Potomac.
NEW YORK, Dec. 80.
A special dispatch from Washington states
that last evening the rebel force were near
Chantilly, six miles from Fairfax Court House.
In passing Stoughtons forces last night,
though covered by wood and flying quickly,
Stuart got discharge of artillery and mus
kerry. Six dead horses were found this morn
ing, and tokens of the removal of the wound
ed. The twenty-five ambulances and wagons
they removed were empty, and the forty pris-
oners in their train were motley crew of
suffers and soldiers. CaDby's fight at Dunn
fries was a very handsome one. With inferior
numbers he repelled the attack.

Message of the Governor of Missouri.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. ~.
An advance copy of the Governors message
is published this afternoon. Alter congratu-
lating the Legislature and State upon the fact
that at last a loyal General Assembly is con-
vened, he reviews the condition of the State
since the outbreak of the rebellion, and says
that the number of volunteers from Missouri,
after the casualties of war and mastering out
of irregularly enlisted troops, is q 500, which,
with l0,500 State militia, gives total force of
$4,000 in the service of the war. The enrolled
militia, numbering $1,000, gives the State a
grand total of 10000, the latter force fur
nishing large body of men armed and
equipped for any emergency. The Governor
treats of finance and the condition of the rail-
roads at length. and earnestly recommends the
Legislature to adopt measures to restore the
State credit and reduce the State debt con-
sistent with good faith towards holders of
State bonds, complete the railroads yet unin-
ished, and secure the interests of private stock
holders. On the subject of emancipation, he
says he has long been convinced that the ma
terial interests of Missouri would be advanced
by substituting free for slave labor. and recon-
mends plan by which childred of slaves born
after the passage of an act shall be free, but
remain under the control of their owners till
they have arrived at certain age-the own
ers to be compensated for the diminished
value of slave mother after being thus rem
dered incapable of bearing slave children.
During discussion of the emancipation
question, he says the legislature cannot con-
stitutionally adopt scheme by which owners
of slaves can be divided into classes, and slaves
of one class be emancipated without compen-
sation while compensation be provided for the
other class.

Reported Capture of Knoxville, Tenn By
Union Forces--The Rebels Driven
into Murfraasboro,

LOUISVILLE, Dec. 20.
The Postmaster of Richmond, KY, says Col.
Carter, commanding Union brigade, has
captured Knoxville, Tenn, and destroyed four
bridges and large portion of the railroad
track between Knoxville and cambridge.
Gov. Morton, OF Indiana, is here. 1t is not
true that he has ordered out the militia of In
diana AS reported.
Passengers in train from Louisville to
Shepherdsville to-day, report they heard heavy
firing up to four O'Clock this afternoon. in the
direction of Lebanon Junction. and reports
are current that Col. Harlow's brigade are in
the rear OF Morgans forces, and it is supposed
may have engaged them before this time.
1t is rumored that part of Morgan's forces
are at Bardstown, and that they have destroy
ed portion of the track near Elzabethtown.
The rebels have been repulsed three miles
from MunfordsyiIle, and everything there is
safe.
Gen. Rosecrans' forces have driven the reb-
els into Murireesboro'.
Its supposed that Morgan is skedadding out
of the State.

Stock Market.

20 The Saco Democrat has demonstrat-
ed, to its own satisfaction, no doubt, that
Gen. Burnside is no military man, and that If
he had not been overruled by his brother of
fcers, he would have sacrificed the whole ar
my of the Potomac.
B-It is now said that the rebels at Baton
Rouge knew of the destination of Banks ex-
pedition three weeks before its arrival, and
governed themselves accordingly. 1t is fur
ther said Gen. Shepley heard that Banks was
to supersede Butler two or three weeks before
the event took place, deriving his information
from rebel sources. If this be so, then there
must be rebels yet whose ears are at the Gov
ernment's speaking tubes.

DEERING HALL.-The opening night of
Wesleys War Tableaux at Deering Hall last
night was decided success. Tonight it will
be again unrolled, and we trust that the high
reputation this picture has attained, will be
fully appreciated by our readers. We would
recommend all to go and see it. This after
noon it will be exhibited to children for the
low price of six cents. Send your children,
as nothing can be more appropriate in the

ARREST OF ESCAPED PRIsoNERs.-Lam

ARREST OF ESCAPED PRIsONERs.-Lamb,
who escaped from our jail on Sunday, was ar
rested yesterday morning in Windham by
Constable Varney, at the house of Mr.. John
Austen. He says that on Sunday afternoon
when two of the officers were at Rocky Hill
in search of him, he was within six feet of
them, lying under a rock. He thought one
of them saw him, and was about to get up and
go to them, but concluded he would not until
departed, and he started for Windham, arriv-
ing there about Z o'clock Monday morning.
He went to the house of Mr.. Hunnewell, Mr..
ii. being absent, and remained there until his
return; when, being told that he could not
remain there, he started on his hands and
knees for the house of Mr.. Austen, where he
was found. His feet are in bad condition,
being frozen. He had no shoes on from the
time he broke jail, Sunday morning, until he
reached Windham. He was brought back to
Jail yesterday afternoon.
Jordan, who also escaped on Sunday, was
brought back to the Jail yesterday morning.
He was under arrest for stealing horse and
wagon. His friends yesterday settled the
matter with the owner of the team, who with
drew the complaint on condition that Jordan
should enlist. He was discharged from Jail,
and Immediately enlisted in the 7th regiment
and went over to Camp Lincoln.
All of those who escaped on Sunday have
been arrested, save one, Mr.. Merritt, who was
under confinement for debt of about $40,
the justices having refused to accept his
disclosure. 1t is not probable strict search
will be made for him.
The Portland daily press., 1862-12-31

NEW YEAR's DAY.-The first day of the
new year will be observed as a holiday in this
city more generally than it has ever been here
tofore. 1t will be made the occasion by the
ladies for receiving calls from their friends, as
has been the custom in New York from time
immemorial-and good custom it is.
The Banks in this city will be opened for the
accommodation of depositors from to 10
O'Clock in the morning. Notes and drafts
maturing tomorrow should be paid to-day.

PLEASANT ENTERTAINMENT Last eve
ming, at Lancaster Hall, the exhibition of the
Sabbath School connected with the Spiritual
lists Association, was repeated with a some
what changed programme. The entertain
ment, enlvened with music by Chambers
Band, consisted of speaking and singing by
the children, and tableaux. 1t was as whole
very finely gotten up, the pieces were selected
with good taste, containing nothing to offend
the most fastidious of any sect, and they were
spoken with fine effect. Where all did SO well
it may appear invidious to particularize, but
We trust we shall give no offence by commend
ing particularly the dialogue by Misses
Wright and Hamblet, and the Ladder of
Life" by Miss Bonney. The military perform
ance of Capt. Eddie Hall and company was
received with shouts of applause. The tab
leaux were very fine, particularly the We'd
ding of the Fairies and the Marriage of Poca-
hontas. We should be unjust in this connec-
ton to omit mention Of that little witch-Miss
Alice Carle-only seven years old, whose song
of Down in Maine" was worthy of the inim-
liable Dodge. When we left the hall, at near
ly nine o'clock, a large and well pleased COM
pany were preparing TO indulge in an exercise
more pleasant to those who participate than to
spectators, but lily adapted to thick cowhides.
We dare say the second part was as pleasant
to those who remained as the first had been to
those who were obliged to leave.

Proposed Issue of s2oo. .ooo 900 in Treasury

NEW YORK, Dec. %.
The Herald has the following - Wdsting-
ton, Dec. 29.-It is stated to-day in financial
circles that a telegram was sent to New York
this morning advising that the Secretary of
the Treasury had consented TO the further
issue of two hundred millions of dollars of
treasury notes. This will carry the circulat-
ing medium from S377 100000 (the amount
estimated on the 1st of November by Secre-
tary Chase) to S577 100000; but the latter
amount may be reduced by the withdrawal of
bank notes from circulation under Mr. Chase's
policy of taking bank notes.

NEAT CURRENCY.-Dr. Aver, famous for
his Sarsaparilla, &c, has enclosed the different
kinds of postage stamps in neat cases. On
the backs Of the cases are brief advertisements
of his medicines. The size of the pieces is a
little larger than the nickel cent but not so
thick. They are much more convenient for
currency than the simple stamps, and, more
over, the stamps cannot get defaced, as the
front is covered with mica. Loring, at his
Apothecary shop, corner of Federal and Ex-
change streets, has a lot OF them.

Mr. John Robinson, who has fitted up Nos. II

rooms Of the second story, running the whole
