PoKISG FIN AT THE CONFEDERATE Mo-
NEY.-The Richmond Examiner suggests
that two-thirds of the Confederate paper
issue be converted into pasteboard and sub
stituted for iron, in the sheathing Of South
ern ships-of-war; and that the other third be
reduced to pulp, or papier mache, and mould
ed into statues for the completion Of the
Washington Monument. 1t also suggests
that on the monument should be placed as a
motto, this couplet from Wordsworth:
" Thus strives grateful country to display
The mighty debt, which nothing could REPAY"

Reverse to Gen. SeymOur's Expe-
ditiOn I'm Florida.

| New YORK, Feb. 27.-The Times SAYS the
steamship Fulton, from Port Royal We'd
nesday last, arrived here at a late hour last
night, bringing information of a sad reverse
to our expedition under Gen. Seymour in
/ Florida. We are unable to give details, be-
cause after the Fulton had put into the bay
she was boarded by the Provost Marshal
and Quartermaster, with orders from Gen.
Gilmore to deprive passengers of all private
letters in their possession. To passenger
by the Fulton we are indebted for the fol-
lowing main facts Of the battle:
On the afternoon of the Goth our troops
under Gen. Seymour met the enemy, fifteen
thousand strong, fifteen miles beyond jack
sonville and eight miles beyond Sanderson,
on the line of the Jacl 30 willie and Talla-
hassee railroad. The battle was desper-
ately fought during three hours, and at
sunset, our forces, overpowered by num-
bers, retired to Sanderson, taking with
them greater part of the wounded.
The 9TH Connecticut, 7th New Hamp-
shire, 10th Massachusetts, 48th and 150th
New York, and 9Th United States, were
engaged. Col. Tribly, Sth United States,
was lett dead on the field. Col. Reed, a
Hungarian officer, was mOrtally wounded.
All the officers of Hamilton's battery were
wounded. Capt. Hamilton was wounded in
the arm and is at Gen. Gilmore's headquar-
ters at Hilton Head. Col. Guy Henry, Of
the 10th Massachusetts,, had three horses
shot under him, but escaped unhurt.
The Cosmopolitan arrived at Beaufort
on Monday evening, with two hundred and
forty wounded. Col. Reed, who was among
them, was still living when the Fulton left
on Wednesday.
The enemy's loss is not known. They
captured five guns. . 1t is supposed that
the troops were from Bragg's army. Gen.
Hardee himself was on the field, having
come to Florida on visit to his family, and
also to form second marriage.
Our loss is variously estimated at from
eight rebel prisoners were brought by the
Fulton. We understand that the purser of
the Fulton has list of the killed and
wounded which he will show, but will not
allow it to be copied.

Retaliation.

New YORK, Feb. H.--In the correspond
ence passed between Generals Peck and
Pickett, in relation to the death of the rebel
Col. Shaw, and subsequent execution by
rebels of a negro soldier for his alleged
murder, Gen. Peck encloses the Presidents
order for retaliation in case soldier of the
United States is killed in violation of the
laws of war, and says he shall refrain from
executing rebel soldiers till he learns Pick
ett's action in the premises. Pickett re-
plies that had he caught any negro who
had killed either a Confederate officer, SOL
dier or citizen, he would have Immediately
executed him. He has four hundred and
fifty United States officers and men in his
possession, and for every man Peck executes
he will hang ten. ID

.Eron North Carolina.

NEwBERN, Feb. 4.-Maj. Gen. Peck
since his return, has been busily engaged in
making rigid inspection of all the fortifica-
tions of the Department. He has received
reliable intelligence of the enemy's inten-
ton to make another effort to dispossess us
of our position in East Tennessee, with the
assistance of their rebel iron-clads, fluteC
ten inches thick, which are nearly ready tC
move simultaneously down the Tennessee
Roanoke and Tar rivers.
Gen. Peck is taking measures to impede
the progress of these iron clads, with the pur.
pose of moving conformity with land forces
on their most important points on these
three rivers. Newbern, Plymouth and
Washington. {fi i--gS ~,
1t appears to be the impression both with.
in and outside our lines that Virginia is tC
be evacuated and the battle-ground to bt
transferred to North Carolina. Hence th'
desire of the enemy to make formidabl,
and desperate effort to obtain possession o
the productive portion of tile State and it
extensive water communications before re
Inducements can arrive for us.
The Wilmington Journal inserts declara
ton that North Carolina would be lost Il
the Confederacy unless this achievement i
realized; This gave utterance, says tn,
Raleigh Standard, to the conditions Oh
which Gov. Vance would pledge the frirthe
cooperation of this State with the Confed
eracy. The presence of an additional mum
Der Of gunboats and small increase to ou
present force, which Gen. Peck is anxiou
to obtain, will make the enemy's effort
fruitless, and turn the existing conditiona
cooperation mentioned in our favor.
The recent expedition which left Ply
mouth under the command of Lieut.- Col
Maxwell and destroyed such large amour
of rebel commissary stores, struck sever
blow at the enemy in that section and frus
trated their operations, and has secured 70
Col. Maxwell the thanks of the command

Intelligence is Just received that the enc
my hung fifty-one soldiers, captured b

creates great deal of excitement If th
news is confirmed the affair may result |

Books for the Times-VaIIandig-
hnm,s Speeches. and other WOrlks.


Last year we published and sold large
number, nearly twenty thousand copies, of
allandigham's Reeord." Also many other
works of similar character. This year we
are opening on q larger scale. 6ti
We have at the printers, a new work, en-
titled "Speeches, Arguments, Addresses,
and Letters of Clement L. Vallandigham."
This book opens with Biographical Sketch,
more full and complete than any hitherto
published. After which follow Speeches,
Addresses, and other documents; then a
supplement, containing large amount and
variety of interesting matter. There is al
so very full alphabetical index, by which
the reader can turn to any section or pas
sage of the book. eng
The work is thus fair and full exhibi-
tion of the whole political history of the
distinguished statesman to whom it relates,
and will be found ready to meet his enemies
and assailants at any point where they may
choose to make their attacks.
| The book is made in the best style of
workmanship, being done at one of the old
est and best houses in New York, and is in
every respect such book as the numerous
friends of Mr.. Vallandigham would be de-
! lighted to have. ,Aa ts,s1s
| The book will contain about 800 octave
pages, ornamented also with neo and very
| fine steel engraved likeness. Price $2.00,
sent by mail or express, prepaid. This Is
about the same rate at which books of this
size and style were sold when the cost of
making them was very little more than half
as much as it is now. The large sale which
the book is sure to have, enables us to put
the price at that figure. :.

done, book entitled Speeches for the
