The following statement of the rebel
prisoners now in our hands is believed
to be nearly. if not quite correct: On
hand at Memphis, 1000; at Fort Della
ware, 5000; taken by Meade at Gettys-
burg, in cavalry fights since, and at Will
Transport, "a 900; by Grant, 81 900; by
Banks, 10000; by Rosecrans, 1000; by
Sherman, 1000; by Prentiss, 1000;
making in all total of $4,000, 1900 of
which were taken on and since the Sd of
July.
In all we now have over 5000 rebel
officers in orr hands, from Generals down.
The opening is an excellent one for jeff.
Davis to try his retaliation for hanging
his spies. ~ ..s HH.
1t is stated that the President sent two
dispatches to General Meade urging an
immediate attack, saying in one that he
thought all appearances indicated that
no other occasion would arise offering
circumstances so propitious to us and so
unfavorable to the rebels. In the coun-
Gil of war Generals Sedgwick, Skies,
French, Hays,and Slocum voted against;
Meade, Howard, Pleasanton and Wads-
worth, and Warren and Humphreys of
Meade's staff, for an attack Had the
movement been made at the time sug-
gested, but 10000 rebels would have
been there to fight, 10000 having
crossed.
The following certificates of authority
to commence National Banks have been
issued:

A FALSE REPoRT-A report has been
put into circulation, and is generally be-
lieved throughout the city, that General
Boyle has released number of Morgan's
men captured in this State, among them
Adj. Gen. Davis of Morgan's staff, cap
tured near Pekin, in Washington county.
We are authorized by Major Fry, COM
mandant at this post, to say that these
reports are wholly without foundation.
By an order from General Burnside the
prisoners of Morgan's command taken
during the raid through Indiana and
Ohio, are to be held, for the present at
least, in special and close confinement,
and the general opinion among military
men is that not few of them will be
hanged for ontrages committed in viola
ton of all the rules of civilized warfare.
A more cruel set of murderers than
many Of the men now with Morgan never
lived.-Neao Albany Ledger.

The LINE OF DEMARKATIoN.-The an

Morgan's band of murderers and horse
thieves, yesterday, afforded fine field
of study for the philosopher and casuist
We have friend who is true philos-
opher and decides cases of conscience
with admirable fitness some times, and
indeed always, except on the subject of
lead pencils, in reference to which he is
exceedingly heterodox.

had been received on the streets, we took
a promenade along Main street in his
company but found him quite taeiturn

In the meantime the news of J. N. IS
misfortune circulated, when our friend
suddenly remarked, as if waking from a
reverie, "John has few friends here,
and several who sympathize with him in
his day of tribulation"
As soon as we could comprehend the
expressive phrase and fully grasp the
comprehensive idea, we naturally in
quired why he thought so.

Just then we met a Bu:ternut, who
seldom lets US pass without greeting of
some kind. He passed us in silence

funeral of rich uncle, whose requests
depended on the poignancy of the grief
of the various heirs.

A DIsGRACEFUL Row.-A most dis
graceful row occurred on First street, at
the st Charles, on Saturday night about
10 o'clock.
The. facts. as we gather them from sew
Three citizens were at the counter taking
their beer quietly, when five sailors from
the gunboat Fairplay entered the saloon,
very much intoxicated, and without any
quarrel or provocation commenced strik-
ing at those present, who, not desiring a
muss, tried to avoid the gunboat's men,
who went to the front of the saloon,
where several persons were sitting, and
made an onslaught on them
A Mr.. Miller, who was present, pun
ished one of the gunboats men pretty
severely, when the doors of the St.
Charles were closed.
The sailors then commenced hurting
brickbats through the glass doors, knock
ing out several lights, and breaking the
sash.
Sheriff Violin, who was passing up
Main street, hearing the noise, FASTENED
to the scene to preserve the peace of the
city, when he was. set upon by three of
the gunboats men, one of whom he
struck several times over the head
with billy, hurting him severely.
The other men he flung lightly aside,
and then drew his revolver.
In the melee that ensued, Sheriff
Wolfiin was shot in the arm, receiving a
slight but painful flesh wound.
One of the gunboat-men received a
wound in the feshy part of the thigh,
but by whom the wound was inflicted
we were unable to ascertain.
1t is not certainly known whether
Wolflin was shot by himself accidentally
or by some one else.
Lieut.. Commanding Groves came to
the scene of disorder, but was unable to
control the drunken sailors, but they
were finally induced to desist from fur
Their outrages and return to the boat.
The whole affair was highly disgrace
full to the sailors, and one which we hope
never to see repeated in our city.
Lieut.. Commanding Groves was OK
ceedingly mortified at the conduct of his
men, and expressed his determination to
punish them severely for their miscon-
duet.
We are glad to know that most of the
crew of the Fairplay and the other gun.
boats that visit this city are orderly and
we'll behaved when on shore, but there
are a few who, when they get ashore, al
once get drunk and try to raise row..
These men should never be permitted
to come ashore unless accompanied by
an officer to control them, and amply
prepared to do SO; and our city officers
when any disorder of the kind occurs
should take prompt measures to pre-
serve the peace of the city and bring
the guilty to speedy punishment.
We can not learn that any of the city
police were in the vicinity, but presume
they were employed elsewhere.

1t will be seen that the taxes here for

ated articles is eight times as large; on
incomes it is over half as much, and not
one-third less than in Marion County,
which includes Indianapolis. The ad va-
