OUR GENERAL DISPATCHES.
EXTRA SESSION OF THE SENATE.

WASHINGTON March 10.-The resolu-
ton relative to a committee on manufac-
lures, was taken from the table, in absence
of other business, and when placed upon
its passage it was rejected
Mr. Dixon submitted the following:
itesotred, That the Secretary of War be. and
is hereby directed to lay before the Senate the
late report of Gen. Rosecrans, of Battles of
MurfrccsbOro, with the reports and documents
which may accompany it.
Mr. Summer said he would not object
to the resolution, but he deprecated action
that might open way to business OF leg
islative character This was an executive,
and not a legislative session.
Mr.. Dixon said that the resolution might
properly be entertained if there was prece-
dent for it. In justice to officers and men
in those brilliant engagements, it should
be adopted. Agreed to.
Mr.. Anthony moved reconsideration
of the vote by which the resolution rela-
tive to the Committee on Manufactures
was rejected. 1t was reconsidered and Or
dered to lie on the table.
On motion Of Mr.. Lane, at half-past
twelve O'Clock the Senate went into exc
cutive session, and after sitting of sew
eral hours, adjourned. -...

FROM NEW ORLEANS.

New York, March 9.-The New Or
leans Err, of the 25th ult, publishes the
following: We learn, on good authority,
that the establishment at Clinton, Louisi-
ana, for the manufacture OF arms and am
munition, was totally destroyed by fire
about two weeks since. The loss to the
rebels is particularly severe at this time,
as the troops in that section have been
very scantily supplied, the officers depend
ing upon the capacity of their works at
Clinton to furnish them. The difficulties
alluded to by the Secretary of War, would
be greatly increased by this disaster.
1t is reported that the Harriet Lane can
never be Of any use to the rebels They
have no machine shop in Texas at which
she can be repaired. Her port shaft is
bent six inches out of line, and two OF the
fanges on her port wheel are burst. She
was thus completely disabled by the last
shell thrown from the Owasco.

Trouble Brewing.

The Cincinnati Commercial says there
is trouble brewing on the border between
Ohio and Kentucky. The editor has sat
isfactory assurance that the malcontents
in the border counties of Kentucky are
preparing for mischief, and hope to assist
Humphrey Marshall's vagabonds in raid
upon the border. If these men wish to
visit Camp Chase at an early period, and
or an indefinite time, let them persist in
the scheme which they hope to consum-
mate within the next fortnight. They are
known. Their rendezvous, their storage
Of arms and provisions, and their plans are
revealed. Their secret associations and
covert plottings are traced out. Their
names are in the right hands. Let them
beware how they attempt to bring war to
our borders, and desolation to their own
homes. If they desire to fall victims to
their own folly and misguided zeal in a
bad cause, they have only to persist in
their present work.

A special from Washington says that
the removal of Gen. Curtiss from the De-
partment of tie West, is officially an
nounced. The reports of the rebel adj
vance up the Shenandoah are contradicted.
Steamer Roanoke, from New Orleans
via Havana, 9th inst, has arrived.
New Orleans advices contain nothing of
great interest. -
An application has been filed in the
Provisional Court for confscating Mr. Sill

Prisoners from the Qneen of the West,
say that they were jealousy guardedat
Alexandria, Ark, and robbed of all their

The Era of the 1st states that the reb-
els recently sent into the rebel lines, had
returned, begging to take the oath of al
egiance, and for bread-every one of them
suffering from actual hunger, and children
crying for food.
A rebel Major and Captain who had
been paroled by Farragaut, had returned
TO New Orleans and taken the oath of al

All give fearful statements of the desti-
tuition in Rebellion.
Vera Cruz advices, received in New
Orleans, state that the French army is en-
tirely quiet, and not able to accomplish
anything without further large reinforce
ments, and, if not soon received, they
must be driven from the country.
The French officers are disguised. The
climate is opening unfavorably for the SOL
1iers. Part Of the French forces are at
Vera Cruz, and negroes at Martinique.
The bulk of the French army is near Pu-
ebla. The country between there and the
City Of Mexico is infested with guerillas
well armed and mounted
A whole train of supplies from Vera
Cruz for the French army was captured by
guerillas The French are constructing
railway to Puebla, and the guerillas are
amuseing themselves by spreading the rails
to run trains off the track

Special Dispatch to The Saint Paul Pioneer.
HARPER's FERRY, March 10.
Great surprise is felt here at the reports
in Washington and elsewhere of disas-
ter at Winchester, caused by the return of
the rebels in force to the valley of Vir-
ginia. There is not only no foundation for
these rumors, but, on the contrary, a state
of preparation exists in that quarter, as
well as hereabouts, that may safely invite
any attempt the enemy can make upon US,
unless his whole army in front of Freder-
icksburg should be moved up, which it is
well known that Hooker will not permit,
even if the bad roads would. Gen. Kelly
is still in command, under Gen. Schenck,
with full force.

that the opinion prevailed in the best in

take possession of Sonora within ninety
days. 1t was believed that the authorities
of Sonora were willing to have the change
take place, thinking that it would give in
creased security to the mining and COM
mercial interests, and encourage the de-
velOpment of other resources.

Remaining in prison up to February 2S
1oo1. o.Z
There are: superintendent of the pris-
on, l provost marshal, l surgeon, labor
er, 2 transfers, 10 cooks, laundresses
for the prison, and l steward, 2 nurses, l
laundress, / cook for the sick The cooks,
laundresses, steward and nurses are Indian
lnen and women.
In this connection, we will state that
quite an improvement is noted in the con-
dition of the prisoners. When first brought
here, gambling was their chief if not ex-
elusive occupation, and it was not unusual
to witness as many as fifteen or twenty
games Of cards in operation at one time.
Through the persistent efforts of Rev. DR..
Williamson and others, a radical change
has been effected. \ pack of cards is
rarely if ever seen; and books, states, pa
per and ink have been substituted. A
similar change is also preceptible in their
personal appearance. A few days ago,
while passing through the prison, DR.. Sig
norette, the physician in charge, observed
an Indian painting himself The doctor
mildly reproving him, rubbed the paint OFT,
and nothing of the kind has since been OBJ
served.
DR.. Williamson visits the prisoners once
each week, usually coming on Saturday
and remaining until Monday He has
brought them many books, and at each
visit supplies them with writing material,
all of which we believe he does at his own
expense.
The prisoners are great letter writer's,
and from one to two hundred letters are
weekly written to their friends at Fort Smell
ling and elsewhere. These have all to be
examined and read by Major Brown, be-
fore they are sent, which is no small task.
The letters are then given to Dr. William
son, who forwards them, and on his return
visit, he brings the letters written in reply
by their friends which are entrusted to his
care.
We have, however, no confidence even
in these very fiattering symptoms of Indian
civilization, but believe that were those
seemingly devout and penitent subjects
turned loose to re-occupy their old hunt
ing grounds, by the time they reached the
outskirts OF civilization, their savage ma
lures would return, and they would take
white man or wOman's life with as much
relish as they did last year. As faithful
chrOnicler of passing events, however, we
give the above facts, from which the pub
lie may deduct their own conclusions.
