FROM GRANTS ARMY.
WAsHINGrON- NV % IL

hAsHINGToN, Nov. -, 1864.
The bclex-Gcncral Roger \. Pryor, now
a private soldier in the Confederate army,
was captured on Friday last by the Fifth
corps pclcts of the Army Of the Potomac,
while attempting to exchange papers with
our pickcts This was done in retaliation
for the recent capture of Captain Burbridgc
by the rebel pickets under similar circum-
stances
Pryor says that General Lee issued an
order for the return of Captain Burbridge
on Saturday, and he himself will probably
be returned as soon as Captain Burbridge
is sent back.
Since the capture Of Pryor, Captain Bur
bridge has been dismissed the army for dis
obeying the order forbidding the exchange
Of papers or holding intercourse with the
enemy under any pretext whatever.
Pryor has been brought to Washington
committed to tRe Old Capitol prison.
The information from the Army Of the
Potomac is up to Sunday evening. Itstatcs
that the usual amount Of prickct firing was
heard along the front, but beyond that all
was quiet.
In General Buffers department the picket
firing was heavier than usual on Sunday,
and there was also considerable canonad
ing.

PERSONAL.

We present this number of the REPORTER
to our subscribers enlarged, and we trust,
otherwise much improved To effect this
very desirable change, we have procured
new presses and type, at a heavy outlay,
and at the present advanced rates for all
printing materials, at great pecunary
sacrifice
That we have pride in the appearance
and standing of newspaper with which
we have been identified from the time the
first type was set in the Office, nearly TWEEN.
ty-five years ago, is but natural, and we
have yielded to what seemed to be the gen
eral demand, and have again assumed the
entire control of the paper as publisher and
editor.
No County in the State has increased
more rapidly in population and wealth than
has Bradford during the past few ycars-at
least no agricultural county, while the intel
ligence and thrift of her people are pro-
verbal She takes position in the front
rank whilst her tremendous and reliable
Union majority gives her proud pre-emin-
ence amongst her sister counties.
Deeply impressed with the wants of the
people of this County, and profoundly sen
sible of the requirements of the Republi-
can party, we once more assume the diff
cult and responsible duties of the editorial
chair, appealing with the utmost confidence
for the support and encouragement of the
friends Of Freedom throughout the County.
We are certain that it is not required that
we should set forth the principles which shall
govern us, as the past is sufficient guar
antee for the future
The subscription price of the paper will
hereafter be 50 payable in advance With
the increased size of the paper, and the
high price of everything used in printing
1t, it is not necessary to say to any intelli-
gent and liberal man that the price is yet
too low
The experience of many years has salts
fed us that no paper can thrive in the
country, which is not conducted upon the
plan of advance payments. We have tried
it, thoroughly, and can speak from sad ex-
perience. We shall, consequently make
the rule imperative, serving friend or foe
alike. We shall send this number of the
REPORTER to all upon the subscription books,
but the next only to those who have paid in
advance.
We have added largely to our facilities
for job Printing. Probably no establish
ment in the country is better prepared for
the execution of work than ours All work
will be promptly and neatly done, at living
rates.

Columbia, south Of Dutch River on Satur-
day, and was badly repulsed.
A small portion of the rebel cavalry has
succeeded in crossing Duck River
Hood has made other dcvclopcments Of
his plans, but thus far he has accomplished
nothing further than conscripting some Of
his dear friends"
There is no foundation for the rumor of
the evacuation Of Johnsonvilic, except a
proper preparation for possible contingent
cics.
The military situation is satisfactory to
the authorities
The impression gains ground that Hood
will move east across the Chattanooga,
possibly with the hope of accomplishing
something by cooperating with Breckin-
ridge

LATEST WAR NEWS.
SHERMAN MOVING AGAINST MACON
AND AUGUSTA


From Sherman's army we have the intcll-
igcnce that it is moving i'll two columns
as the report says, one upon Augusta and
the other upon Macon 1t is notlikely that
he is about to separate his columns for any
length of time and his line of march will
probably be as follows:
The column marching on the Georgia
state road for Augusta will go as far as
Madison, sixty miles, and there turning to
the right, march on Milledgeville, the capi
tai of Georgia The column marching to
Macon will probably go to Crawford's,
within fifteen miles of the town, and there
turn off to Millcdgeville, and form juno
ton with the other body. BY this move
ment Macon falls, and the enemy are at lib
erty to move on Augusta by following the
Georgia Central Railroad to Brinsonville,
and then marching north, or or Savannah,
by following the railroad to lis terminus
there We shall soon hear of their cavalry
around Macon, and very near, possibly, to
Augusta. Sherman is moving rapidly, and
is not much troubled with transportation.
He has burned several stations at the de-
pots he has passed, and is devastating the
country generally in foraging.

ATTEMPTED INcENDARIsN.-On Friday night
last, an apparently concerted attempt was
made to burn the principal hotels of New
York City. Early in tse evening fire was
discovered in the st. James Hotel, and the
alarm was speedily followed by similar dis
coveries in several other principal hotels,
and at Barnum's Museum. The attempt to
communicate fire was in each case by
means of phosphorus and turpentine, placed
in the bedding of the rooms,
This diabolical attempt is supposed to
have been made by the rebel emissaries in
the city. Stringent measures been adopted
to prevent the recurrence Of like attempt

CURIOUS RUMOR IN WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON. Monday, Nov 2S

WAsHINGToN Monday, Nov, q, 1S64
1t is affirmed that the secesh here are in
possession of most important news from
sherman to the effect that his cavalry had
reached and surrounded Milen and held the
place until his infantry advance had come
up, and released about two-thirds of all our
prisoners who had been confined there, The
remainder had been removed further south
before Sherman's arrival Whatever truth
there may be in this statement, one thing
is certain, the secesh here never before wore
such long faces.

SnEmAN,-Tclcgraphic dispatches show
how SHERMAN and his veterans " 90 march
ing on" Spreading out their columns
they sweep through the heart Of Georgia
carrying all before them, capturing part
of tho Georgia Legislature, and sending
dismay throughout the entire region. At
the last rebel accounts, the army was close
ly approaching the city of Macon, (103
miles from Atlanta) and there appeared to
be no hope of presenting any cttectual re-
sistancc to his advance Since then the
Richmond papers profess to have informa-
ton not to be communicated to the public.
We can easily imagine its tenor 1t can
be nothing gratifying to the rebels, or else
we may be sure that it would be trumpeted
abroad without the least hesitation or re-
striction. 1t is more than probable that
SHERMAN's capture of Macon was known at
Richmond at the date of the dispatches.
At any rate his route begins to be cleared
up, and his success thus far established

BaE~ The Chicago Convention, it will be

such bodies usually do, but it stood adjourn
ed to meet again at the call Of the President
We call the attention of the distinguished
delegates from this District, to the fact that
the Convention needs adjourning. The
country will not rest securely until it is
done. The apprehensions Of some overt
act some dire calamity, some impending
danger will only be allayed, by the re-as-
sembling of the members of that august
body and its dissolution
In fear of want of attention to our
wishes on the subject mark what Ben
WooD desires. He says -
We suggest to the Executive Committee of the
National Democratic Convention the propriety of
calling that body together, and giving it the oppor-
tunty to adjourn sine die The Convention, by its
own resolution, is gifted with kind of qNtSi i'm
mortality dependent upon the volition of its En-
ecutive Committee. The gentlemen of the Conven-

keE" \ Washington dispatch says "a
statement appeared in one or more Of to-
days papers, enormously attributed to the
Washington Agent and reported for the
Associated Press, that Commander COLLINS
has been ordered to return to Bahia, Brazil,
with his quasi-prizc, her officers and crew,
and purporting to give the result of the
action Of the Government upon that sub
jject, with other assumed facts i'll the same
connection. No such telegram originated
with the Agent and Reporter of the Asso-
ciated Press. But there is the best author
ity for stating that all statements to the
effect that differences Of opinion have arisen
in the Cabinet concerning the case of the
pirate Florida, or that decision has been
made for or against her restitution, are
without foundation, No action of the Gov
crnment has been taken in the case, and
no discussion of it has been held, and the
Navy Department authorizes the following
statement The original order for the
Wachusctt upon her arrival at Hampton
Roads, was to proceed to Boston for re-
pairs, taking with her the prisoners cap
turcd on the Florida, to be consigned to
Fort Warren. Before the order reached
the vessel the pr soners had been sent to
Point Lookout, and in a few days were
transferred by the army authorities to the
Old Capitol, They were Immediately ord
cred back to Point Lookout to be returned

states that they have been received in Fort
