Emf OF TEE ASSOCIATED PREss-A few DAYS
since debate Of most interesting and import

United States. Ii was based upon a statement
made by Senator Wilson, OF Massachusetts.
Chairman Of the Senate Committed on Military
Affairs, and involved statistical information
relative TO the strength o. the Union armies, &C.,
Of very great value. From this official exhibit
it appears that since the l7th OF October last
six hundred thousand men, not including black
men, have enlisted or re-enlistoi in our armies,
and that one hundred and twenty-five millions
of dollars have been expended In bounties
since that period; that within the past year
seven hundred thousand men have been put Ia
the field, and that since General Grant CON-
menced HE march toward the rebcl capital re-
inforccments to the number Of forty-eght thou
sand men, exclusive of the one hundred days
men-eome two thousand more--have been
forwarded to him. By the latter statement Il.
will be remarked that General Grant is stronger

FROM WASHINGTON.

ArriraI of Congressman Presidents Mes

napOiis. ,6H HHN
qa WASHINGTON, Dec g.
Up to this evening probably not more than
one fifth OF the members Of Congress had ar
rived here. There is, however, no doubt there
will be quorum present in both Houses on
Monday. The larger number being now on
their way here.
The message of the President was fully con-
sidered in an extra Cabinet meeting to-day
The usual caution is observed to prevent pre-
mature exposure of its contents. So far only
the reports of the Secretary of the Navy and
the Postmaster General have been printed.
At present soldiers who have been severely
MANNED have an advantage in respect to PEN
sions over the sailors who similarly suffer, and
therefore one of the measures of the approach
ing session of Congress will be to provide
remedy for the manifest injustice or oversight
in legislation.
New arrangements perfecting the connec-
ton and rendering the entire mail service
north and west more certsin than heretofore,
and for two trains day between Washington
and New York in ten hours will go into effect
on the 10th inst.
From reports that have reached here there
seems to be no doubt that some Of the forces
of Gen. Early have been sent to Richmond
within the past week by way of Madison Court
House. FH an fsaaM
gentleman who arrived from Annapolis
tonight says 5000 exchanged prisoners have
already reached that place, and the paymas-
tiers are very busy settling their arrearages.-
More are daily expected. Those who recent
ly came up on The Constitution and Carnac
are comparatively in good health.
III WASHINGTON, Dec. A.
Hon. James Speed, recently appointed At
torney General arrived to-day from Kentucky.
1t cannot be ascertained with certainty
whether the Presidents Message will be trans
mitted to Congress tomorrow or Tuesday.

clerk. Hogg was recently captured in the
Tristan Shandy, while running the blockade
at Wilmington. His instructions from Mallo-
ry show that he has rebel commission, and
sailed from Wilmington for Havana, where he
made up his gang of pirates. They have con-
freres along the coast who were to join them.
Hogs instructions were, after getting pos
session of the steamer to capture California
steamer with treasure, and If not able 10 get
the treasure across the Isthmus. to deposit ~
with reliable English house in Valparaiso OF
send it to Europe by a French man oI-war.
The steamer Guatemala, which arrived PACK
at Panama on the 18th, reports seeing many
suspicious persons anxiously awaiting Inc ar
rival OF some steamer at Lyeertad ana AGA
pulco. who were undoubtedly accomplices of
the pirates. Nine of these latter had come
across the country via Omomo from Havana.
They have probably been arrested ere this, as
the government of San Salvador had been no
titled that they were pirates.
ON the 18th Admiral Pearson, commanding
the SQUADRON in the Pacific, accompanied BY
Consul Mckee, of Panama, and Consul Rice,
of Aspinwall, waited on the President of
Grenada in Panama, to ask permission to pass
the prisoners across the Isthmus in order to
send them to New York. The President re-
fused permission on the ground that he was
not empowered to grant it; but it is presumed
they will be taken across on the responsibility
OF the American officials.

The Richmond Wing Of the list inst SAYS:
HNeWs from Georgia yesterday, Both ult. shows
that Sherman is gradually approaching the
coast, but retrained from giving the direction.
He has met with no serious opposition since
his repuise at the Oconee; but efforts are be-
ing made to head him of.
Wheeler had two victorious engagements
with Kilprtricks cavalry, in one of which he
captured Kilpatricks' hat.
Gen. Hardee telegraphs from Savannah,
That he left Macon perfectly secure, and was
making certain dispositions in that quarter.
The Richmond Dispatch of the LIST inst, says
official intelligence of Sherman's movements,
and present whereabouts, was received the
day previous, but does not mention the said
whereabouts. 1t says the federals have Jour
teen gunboats and transports near Port Royal.
The Charleston Mercury of the oath, says:
The enemy have forty pieces of heavy ord
nance on Morris Island bearing on fort Stump
ter and Sullivan's Island. They are busy
mounting mortars, and have buoyed out
Bulls bay. They have a feet of dozen
monitors at Port Royal, and somewhere on
the coast a dozen and half more. These
preparations indicate an attack on Charleston,
and the advance FISHERMAN towards Augusta,
warn us that no time is to be lost in pre-
pairing to meet the issue.
The Savannah news thinks Sherman's desti-
nation is that city, and that unless his army is
either whipped, routed, or captured, he will
reach it.
NEW YORK, Dec. 4.
The Hilson Head correspondent of the
Herald, says Gen. Foster recently proceeded
up the river with an exp ,dition, landing five
miles below Poctoligo Bridge, which he cap
tured after sharp fight. The rebels evacu-
ating. A large quantity of cotton was captur-
ed and destroyed.
1t is supposed the rebel force along the
coast has been materially lessened to concen-
trate troops against Sherman.
The naval correspondent of the Herald, off
Charleston, states that the blockade runner
Beatrice was run ashore and destroyed, on
the night of the 9th, ult. Thirty Of her crew
were captured.
Admiral Dahlgren and Gen. Foster are in
communication with Gen. Sherman, who Is
supposed to be moving on Savannah, and a
joint force has been organized to cooperate
with him, while other expeditions are moving
on other stragetic points. s9
1t is reported on shore that Lee is march
ing against Sherman.

CLOSE OF THE OPERA.-The English OPP
era closed up its season-and most success
ful one it has been-on Saturday evening. 1t
the was benefit night Of that beautiful young
lady, pleasing singer and charming actress,
Miss FANNY STOCKTON, and though it was
very rainy and the streets never more muddy,
the hall was crowded by an audience drawn
from the first social circles in our city. 1t was
decided compliment to the fair BENEFICIARY,
for which, by proxy, she expressed her pro-
found thanks to the audience. The company
did finely in the Opera of Mariana. Messrs
Campbell and Castle never did better. Mr..
White acted his part admirably, and Misses
Stockton and Fowler gave abundant satisfac-
ton.
Mr. RIVERS has laid our Portland people
under lasting obligations for favoring them
with SO fine series of entertainments We
hope he will feel encouraged to visit our city
agsln at no distant day. The troupe go from
here to Quebec.

SACRED CoNcERT.-The operate Troupe
gave Sacred Concert at new City Hall last
evening. The house was well filed, and the
music excellent. There is wide difference
between this hall and the one in which they
have been performing during the past week,
so far as acoustic properties are concerned
Voices sound vastly better in this hall, when
it is well filed, than in any place in town.
This company have every reason to be salts
fed with the patronage they have received,
and their performance last evening was equal
to any previous ones. They have performed
their parts well, and our citizens have given
them a good reception, and put money in
their pockets. May success attend wherever
they 60.

The steamship North Star, from Aspinwall

in treasure.
Our Panama letter of Nov. 10Th was re-
ceived to-day, and contains the following i'm
portant intelligence:
There has been much excitement in Pana-
ma the past week, caused by the following in
cidents: On the 18th of October the Ameri
can Consul at Panama received dispatch
from Consul Shufeldt at Havana, stating that
the same steamer bringing the dispatch would
also take to Aspinwall party of rebel pirates
who intended to seize the steamer Guatemala,
The SCENT Of the company was notified of the
fact, and sent the Guatemala to sea before the
arrival OF the pirates across the Isthmus; con-
sequently they were obliged to remain at Pam
anna until the 10th of November the day of
sailing of the next steamer, the Salvador.
In the mean time further information was
obtained, and plan for the capture of the
whole gang matured, Whilst waiting the reh-
els purchased three hundred pounds of now
der, put it in tin cans, any shipped it on the
same steamer they intended to take passage
In.
On the 10th the passengers embarked on
the salvador as usual Win their baggage
Immediately on going on board they were taxi
en- into the main saloon, ostensibly to have
their tickets examined. Previous to this all
the port holes, windows of state rooms and
doors had been closed, in order that no oppor-
tunity could he presented for skedaddling, or
for hiding papers, &c. As soon as they were
collected preconcerted signal was made,
when Commander Davenport, of the U. s.
frigate Lancaster, sprang on board with sew
eral fully armed boats crews, and announced
TO the astonished passengers that he had taken
possession of the steamer. Sufficient evidence
was at once discovered to prove the validity of
the plot, when the Salvador was taken to sea
over three marine miles; accompanied by the
Lancaster.

PREACHERS AND PREAcHING.-Rev. Mr..
Bodies delivered yesterday afternoon, at the
Universalist church, the first of series Tex
cepting the Introductory of lectures on
Preachers and Preaching, to be continued
Sabbath afternoons. The special subject yes
terday was the life and times, and the character
St. Chrysostom, native, a lawyer, and a
preacher Of Antioch, and afterwards Bishop of
Constantinople, in the fourth century lone
of the purest men that has ever lived, fitting
successor to the Apostolic age, and worthy OF
the sanity honors accorded to him by his pos
terity.
The lecture was about an hour long, was
intensely interesting, and though not written,
1t was one of the best arranged, methodical
finished discourses we have ever heard from
its talented author. 1t was listened to by a
crowded house.
