NEW YORK, Nov. 30.
The Worlds Army Of the Potomac cor
respondent speaking of the capture of
Roger A. Pryor, says:
Pryor appears very sanguine Of the ul-
innate success of the rebellion, and ridi-
cules the idea Of our putting faith in the
statements Of refugees and deserters. He
does not appear to be much cast down by
his present misadventure, but regards the
means used to secure his capture as not
strictly In accordance with the code of
honor, and as more particularly severe in
his case, as he had used his influence to
secure the release of Burbridge, and pre-
vent the recurrence of such captures by
the rebels He has changed but little in
appearance since last saw him in Wash-
ington. He contends that the election of
Lincoln is Just what the South wished,
and although apprehensive that it may
prolong the war another four years, de-
clsred that it has united their people and
rendered the probabilities of their ulti-
mate success much greater. He would
give no information about Sherman, or the
position In the Shenandoah Valley, and
was mdisposed to converse upon any sub
jeet connected with army movements"
The Times Washington speeial saws:
Hoods movements, in Tennessee, seem
to reveal the intention of making his way
into East Tennessee. The line on which he
is moving would Indicate an attempt to
turn Nashville on the east side and make
his way to form junction with Breckin-
ridge. It's believed he will then essay the
capture of Knoxville, which will give him
railroad communication, via East Tennes-
see and the Valley, with Lynchburg and
Richmond.
The successful issue Of Sherman's move
will have severed Communication between
the two rebel armies and Hoods present
campaign seems to be directed towards
securing such communication BY the line
mentioned.
Hoods army, in this case, would be in
position TO join Lees should this move be
come advisable.

The NJ 7. World is in the habit of Civ
ing space to letters set in loaded type and
embellished with faring heads, written at
Baltimore and signed "Druid." Every
one Of these letters IS eminently treason
able. They display a pretended Euowl-
edge of all rebel movements, affect iHtima-
cy with rebel Generals, extol their courage
and skill, Indicate the sure ways in which
the Federal armies are to be crushed, ap-
pleud JEFF Davis and his administration
snd denounce Abraham Lincoln aad his
Cabinet. Within the past week this cor
respondent has arnlhilsted Sherman two
or three tines, has driven him from Allan
ts by rebel forces, stripped him Of provi-
sions, drowned him in mud, captured all
his artillery, and finally leaves him with a
handful of men fleeing before the bel le-
gions.
Some timid men may be alarmed by
these letters, and we therefore propose to
rid them of their fears in future. "Druid"
is no less q parsonage that II. NJ. Flint,
well known in Chicago, and brother of
Calvin Gather Flint, still better known in
Chicago. He served his time rs news
paper reporter in Chicago, hsving been
employed on the Chicago Times. In that
capacity he was principally noted for stu
pendous lying, and vivid imagination,
which never stopped short with the boun-
dsries of truth, newspaper plagiarism, an
utter disregard for personal feeling, fast
living and reckless expenditure. We
think it within bounds to state that he
never wrote a line with grain of truth in
it unless by accident. One of his princi-
pal exploits was stealing life of Douglas
IN this wise. J. W. Sheahan, Esq, then
editor of the Times, was engaged Ipon a
Life of Douglas. Mr.. S. was accustomed to
leave his manuscripts which he had written
during the day, in his drawer. Flint, whose
duties kept him at the office late at night
opened the drawer regularly and copied
teen. As the book neared completion,
Flint was suddenly called TO New York on
bushes S, and Mr.. Sheahan was ast"nished
soon after at Life of Douglas in the
| market, which bore a striking resenl blance
to his, and of course killed his book finsn'
cislly. BE next Rourished on the Cincin-

ANOTHER FIRE.

NEW YORK, Nov. so.
A fire broke out this morning about
baif-past 4 o'clock, which, it is said, was
clearly the work of incendisries. In the
lumber yard of Ogden & Co., in Hubert
street, one third of the block was destroyed.
Among the sufferers were q number of
families, who occupied the building ad-
Joining. The loss is estimated at 100000.
Phosphorus was used, and it Is thought
the intention was to destroy the Govern
ment warehouses adjoining, where an i'm
mense amount of army clothing was
stored.
The Commercials Washington special
says that Roger A. Pryor's report of the
capture Of Macon is not believed, as Gen
eral Sherman had cut communication with
that place, and the rebels at Richmond
could not have been informed of the mat
ter. Sherman has avoided Macon and
Augusta and is marching to the sea coast.
The rebels are doing all they can to oimpede
his progress
The Posts Washington special says;
Richmond papers Of Monday are silent
respecting Sherman's movements, but they
show the rebels to be in great trepidstiOn.
There is every reason to believe Sherman
Is making his way triumphsntly to the
sea coast.
