THE EVENING STAR. W. D. WALLACH, Editor and Prepricter. WASHINGTON CITY: TUESDar., NOVEMBER 29, 1564. — SF READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGB, BER OUTSIDER FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIO AND OTHER MATTER. Capture of the Rebel ex-General Roger A. Pryor! HE IS TAKEN IN AND DONE FOR BY A YAN- KEE!! a ROGER PUTS ON THEATRICAL AIRS. ee HE WRAPS HIS MARTIAL CLOAK ABOUT WIM AND SAY8,* SHOW THE WAY! I AM READY!” a gga THE GUNBOAT GREYHOUND A TOTAL LOss, ———_— THE PIRATE FLORIDA GONE TOBRAZIL BY THE SUBMARINE LINE! —_— The steamer James T. Brady arrived here this morning from City Point, in place of the Cossack, which has been withdrawn from the mail route. The rebel ex-Gen’l Roger A. Pryor Wwas.cap- tured on Sunday in front of the Yd corps. An officer on picket duty noticing a man prowling in front on the picket line, drew a paper from his pocket and wayed it to the rebel, asa sign to come forward and “exchange,” not for a Moment suspecting who the individual was. Pryor seeing the officer waving the paper, boldly advanced towards our lines, when the Union officer discovered that he was a rebel of rank, and instead of offering the paper for | exchange, drew a pistol and presented it to | Roger's head, at the same time Tequesting him to surrender, which he did without resistance, | but was evidently a little crestfallen at being | “taken in and done for” by a Yankee. Pryor now belongs to the 7th Virginia cayal- ry, having been reduced to the ranks, it willbe remembered, by court martial for disobedience of orders. At the time of his capture he was | attached to General Lee’s headquarters as | Lee's chief scout. Pryor was brought upon the James Brady | and was turned over to Col. Ingraham, to be disposed of. He is but little changed in out- Ward sppearances, although his features are | darker, from exposure, but those who were | accustcmed tosee him on the Avenue in this | city and in the Hall of Representatives, would | gasily have recognized him from his long | Owing black hair, sharp bla | and defiant look. * Da ezornna bola | He was dressed in a new suit of Confederate | fray cloth, and woreashawlor blanket, which | he drew tightly around him, and in which he | sought to hide bis face as he stepped from the | boat to the wharf, although, after reaching the street and before entering the carriage which | conveyed him to the Provost Marshal’s office, be icoked anxiously around, apparently as if | to see whether he could recognize any of his | old friends in the crowd that were pushing | forward to geta glimpse at him. His hair almost reached his shoulders, and | upon his head he worea stiffrim black hat. | He bad on a pair of cavalry boots which came | up to his knees, into the legs of which he had his pants stuffed On the way up from City Point to this city Pryor was provided with astate room on the boat, and no one was allowed to enter and con- | yerse with him, as a sentinel was placed at the door, which the General kept closed, evidently being anxious to ayoid the gaze of the passen- ger Atter the boat reached the 6th street wharf, he remained quietly seated in his room smo. | king a cigar, but when the officer who had charge of h m tapped at his door and told him to prepare to leave the boat, he stepped out into the state-room with a long stride, remark- ing, in @ theatrical style, as he did so, « Show | the way! I am ready!” As soon as he was seated in the carriage he was rapidly driven to Colonel Ingraham’s | office. | The Brady reports that the steamer Grey- | hound, Gerersi Butler's dispatch buat, which ‘was destroyed by fire, is atotal wreck, and her he ela and hull lies submerged off Hog Is- and The pirate Florida, which wasrun into yes- | terday by an army boat, sunkoff Newport News | in twelve feet of water. As yet no efforts haye been made to raise her. FROM THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC. | ee Heavy Cannonading—The Capture of Pryor The rebel ex-General Roger A. Pryor, now a | private soldier in the Confederate army, was j esptured Friday last by the Fifth Corps pick- | ets of the army of the Potomac, while attempt. | ing toexchange papers with our pickets, as a | retaliatory ‘ct for the recent capture of Capt. | ®urbridge by the rebel pickets under similar | circumstances. He says that General Lee had issned an order for the return of Captain Burbridge on Satur- | day. and he will probabiy be returned as soon as Burbridge is sent back. Since his capture Captain Barbridge has been dismissed the ser- vice for disobeying the order forbidding the ex- change of papers or holding intercourse with | the enemy under any pretext whatever. | The information from the Army of the Poto- | mac, dated Sunday evening, is, that the usual , amount of picket firing was heard along the front, but beyond that all was quiet. In Gen- eral Butler's department the picket firing was heavier than usual on that day, and there was also considerable cannonading. ———_<61e-s—__ FROM NORTH CAROLINA. The Late Fire at Newbern—A Skirmish at Plymouth—The Enemy Defeated—An- ticipated Evacu: of Virgin Newsern, Nov. 26,(via New Yorx, Nov. 28.)—The fire here last Saturday night de- stroyed twenty buildings, mostly business houses, some containing large stocks, and mostly uninsured. A skirmish occurred at Plymouth the other day, in which the enemy were repulsed. t is reported that the enemy are fortifying the Roanoke and Chowan rivers with the view of evacuating Virginia. Steamers are now running to Fortress Mon- Toe daily. The Late Fire at Newbern. {Correspondence of N. Y. Tribune.} Nawsern, N.C, Nov. 20.—Atabout llo’cl'k | Saturday night, Nov. 19th, a fire occurrea in | this city, which resulted ina feartul destruc tion of property, and the loss of several lives- It originated in an old saloon on the corner of Broad and Middle streets, and just opposite that portion or the city burned down in 1562. Fifteen large buildings, mostly stores and dwellings were utterly consumed. The fire company was in attendance, but the engine | being out of repair, and the wind being unfa- Vorable, atone time it was feared the entire | place wonld be destroyed. i The conflagration was finally arrested by blowing up several buildings before they had been reached by the flames. In this perform. ance, several soldiers who were engaged in re- moving stores from one of the buildings were biown to atoms. GQ, eral Palmer, and many officers of the D-par ynent were on the ground, and put torth every ensrt to quench the flames. The fire is soppoted to Bave been communicated by an aicendiary.

FrnanciaL.—The New York Evening Post ae: he advance of Saturday night in the gold | market is maintained to-day at from 226 to 227% per cent. The quotztion about noon was | 264 ax. | Government gold-bearing stocks are also firmly supported, and the prices going up on the 1881's and 5-20’s. The latter sold as high | as 1073 per cent. for either old or new issue. | Money is easy tothe brokers at seven per | cent.; andin exceptional cases, as on gevern- ment stocks, six per cent. is taken by lenders. With the exception of governments, the Stock | Exchange this forenoon was dull and quiet, | though generally steady in prices as compared | with Saturday. | _ Atlo’clock the gold room had ad vanced to | 2298230 percent, on the news of the falling back of Gen. Thomas. The movements in the price of gold continue to attract the public attention. On the Ist | October the price was 189, to which point it had gradually sunk from 285, the quotation on | the 11th July, soon atter the passage of the gold | bill. During the month of Octoberit gradually rose, and on the Ist November it sold at 211\. One week later it rose to 260, from which point it has gradually fallen to 216%, the lowest quotation ef Friday. The cause of these mis- | chieyous and unexampled spasms ‘re to be | sought im the inflated, redundant state of the | currency, inthe instability and derangement of commercial values, in the resulting dis- _ turbance of public confidence, and in the stimulus imparted to wiid speculation in the precious metals. The operation of these effi- cient and powerful causes of fluctuation in the prico of gold has been considerably exaggera- ted by the recent gratifying military news, by the growing decrepitude ot the rebel canse, by the brightening prospects of an early peace, | &nd by the belief prevalent among unrefiecting | €nd uninformed persons that immediately on the cessation of active hostilities a return— | not gradual. but spasmodic, not healthy and normal, but vielent and ruinous—will at once | be made to specie payments. | The New York Commercial Advertiser says: The following National Banks have in- | creased their capital: The Fourth, of Phila- deiphia, increased $50,000; the First. of Mt. Gilead, Ohio, increased $20,000; the First, of Dethi, New York, increased $25,009; the Sec- | ond, of Allentown, Penn’a, increased $40,000: the First, of Meadville, Penn’a, increased | $25,000. | . The Comptroller of the Currency issued to National Banks during the week, #2,032,930 of currency, making the tota. amount of National Bank notes now afloat $66,562,300 Dry Goods Auction.—The week opens with but one sale, and even this is something extraordi- nary, as Monday is considered more for prep- aration than for sales. Messrs. Haggerty & Co. had an unusually large exhibition of cloths, cascimeres, &c., comprising nearly nine hun- dred lots. The attendance was more than usu- ally large, but the bidding very uneaual. Vel- vet vestings sold heavily, and at much lower las say at a depreciation of 10 per cent. rab moleskins, which sold last week at 1.05, Were to-day disposed of at 70c. Italian black | cloths ranged trom 68c a‘vc., all the lots selling quite liberally.

The Currituck, Acting Ensign Felix, arrived this morning from the lower river, for repairs, she haying been in active service now for eighteen months, in the Rappahannock and Potomac. She reports that on Wednesday or Thurs- day last a party of about 40 officers and men from the Yankee, under the command of Act- ing Master G. OC. Shultze, went on shore on a raid, a short distance this side of Port Lowry, on the Rappahannock river, and while Captain S. and party were near a honse, a force of about 100 rebel cavalry and a number of home guards were discovered attempting to cut off their way to the boat. The crew, seeing that they had superior nnm- bers to contend with if they attempted to make a stand, beat a hasty retreat to the beach, and got off safely to the Yankee. But Captain Shultze and the cabin boy had their retreat cut off and were captured. Subsequently the commandér of the cavalry sent a flag of truce to the Yankee for changeof clothing for Shuitze, and also a message that if more raids are made by the officers and men of the gunboats, CaptainS. will be summarily dealt wilh, Captain Shultze is a good officer, and his many friends here will regret his capture, and hope for his speedy exchange. He has been for several months in command of the Jacob Bell, from which he was recently transferred to the Yankee. The Currituck has seen some hard service on the Rappabanneck; in the torpedo expedi- tion she played a prominent part, and from the fact that she has been so long and actively employed without the necessity of any repair- ing, speaks well for the boat.

TELEGRAPHIO NEWS. IMPORTANT FROM TENNESSEE. Hood Makes an Attack on our Works at Columbia, and ts Badly Repulsed—The Military Situation Highly Satisfactory— Hood about to Take the Back Track. NASHVILLE, Noy. 28.—There is nothing from Hood’s army on our front since yesterday evening. The wires are down. Hood made an assault on our works at Co- Iumbia, south of Duck river, on Saturday, and was badly repulsed. A small portion of the rebel cayalry had sue- ceeded in crossing Duck rived. Hood has made no other developments of his plans. 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 Jobnsyille, except a proper pre- caufion for possible contingencies, The military situation is satisfactory to the authorities. The impression gains ground that Hood will move east across the Chattanooga, and p bly with the hope of accomplishing something by co-operating with Breckinridge. LOCAL NEWS. MEETING OF THE NaTronaL Democratic ABsSOCIATION —A meeting of the National Dem- ocratic Association was held last night at German Hall, on 11th street, with thirty mem- bers in attendance, including ex-Senator James Green, of Missouri, and Hon. T. B. Florence. The Chair (Mr. Florence) stated that the last meeting was the initiation of a movement to continue and perfect the organization of the Democratic conservative masses—an organiza- tion numbering 119,000 men, looking to con- seryative and constitutional management of the general government. He conceived that the signs of the times were cheering for the conservatives, as radical abolitionism would shortly be stabbed in its own house. This was an incentive for them to work, and the con- perv aave Die ofthe country were a unit in insisting t this great organization should be sustained. Mr. F. A. Aiken had no doubt that the pur- pose of the association was to discuss the prin- ciples of future action. During the week he had considered the matter seriously, but could not ceme to any conclusion what action to take in rejation to the incoming Administra- tion. It was the duty of the Democrats at the national capital to present their views to the country, and the others would fall in with them. In view of the next meeting he offered the following resolution : Resolved by the National Democratic Association, That a committee of five be appointed by the chair to propose and set forthin a series of resolutions the basis of the future action of the association, and to devise ways and means to meet the financial requirements of the asso. ciation, and that said committee be requested to report at the next meeting. Mr. S. Brereton moved that the finance com- mittee of the old association be appointed inaz- cordance with that resolution. Mr. W. Minnix wanted to know if this was the old association or a new one. Mr. Brereton answered that this was the old association until gentlemen came rorward and attached their names to a new constitution. Mr. Minnix was of the opinion when the campaign closed the old association ceased, and that when this meeting was called it was for the purpose of forming & new association. The Chair decided that the old association re- mained intact, Dr. T. G. Clayton apologized for being late, but there was a woman in the case. (Laugh- ter] He had to attend to his duties—{iaughter) —police duties. (Renewedlaughter.) He was under the impression that the old association still exists with Tom Florence, Bill Gary, and Dr. Clayton. {Laughter.) He was opposed, however, to a series of resolutions setting forth what they should doas the meetings ‘themselves would be suggestive of action. Some further discussion ensued, when Mr. Aiken modified his resolution by striking oat “and to devise ways and means to meet the fi- nancial requirements of the old associauon,”” 4s it was stated by Mr. Brereton, that the old Ascociation did notoweanything, but Mr. Aiken contented that the old association owed about $1,500 tor documents sent off to friends. Mr. Aiken’s resolution, a8 modified was adopted, when Mr. J. E. Miller offered the tol- lowing, which was also adopted : Resolved further, That the said committee of five do examine all bills or accounts rgainst said National Demooratic Association, and that when they make their report they report the amount of outstanding debts against said association. Mr. F. A. Aiken offered a series of resolutions ernsuring the apprehended policy of the oy ernment in giving up the steamer Florida MUapt. Pat McGuire objected 10 Japt. Pat McGui objec! tions as it was not the place for them. He wanted bie friend Se to fix the Florida sar Ohatles Alga could noteee the propriety of the resolutions. Congress had passed simi- lar resolutions in relation to Mason and Slidell, ut Seward gave them up. Objections was here made to the receipt of the resolutions, when Mr. Aiken withdrew them for the p of making an amend- ment, butagain offered them as a whole after remarking that he did not believe the resolu- tion would influence the Government in its action. His object wastosee if the spirit of the Association was bold enough after its lata defeat to reaffirm one of its principles that this Government's integrity shall be maintained at home and abroad. 7 Motions to lay om the table, adjourn, &c., were made, but did not prevail. Finally it was decided to allow each member five min- utes to speak upon the resolution. Dr. Clayton did not hold Mr. Liscoln respon- sible for the seizure of the Florida. He hoped the association would pass no such resolution reflecting upon the Administration, If the Administration repaired the Florida and turned her over tothe Brazilian Government, it would be one of the most noble acts that it had done for the past two years, and it was the duty of the Administration to surrender the Florida. Mr. S. P. Moses endorsed the remarks of Mr. Clayton, and would applaud this action of the Government in returning the Florida, as it would be an act to be gpplauded. The further consideration of the reselution ‘Was postponed until the next meeting, and the association adjourned. Se. EpiscopaL.—On Sunday last, Bishop South- gate confirmed, in St. John’s Church, George- town, in the morning, eighteen persons, two of whom were from St. Alban’s Church. St John’s is the venerable church, being the oldest Episcopal, and perhaps the yery oldest church now standing in Georgetown. In the afternoon, the number confirmed in the Mission Chapel ‘Was thirty; and at night, in Christ Church, the number was, as already stated in our paper, fifteen Grace Church, (Island,) Rey. Alfred Hol- mead, rector, was crowded last night, on the occasion of the confirmation ceremonies there. The opening services and eloquent inyoca- tions of the Protestant Episcopal Church, ever impressive, were strikingly s0 on this occa- sion, and the fine performances of the choir in singing the 70th Psalm, and the 90th (confir- mation) hymn elicited the admiration of all present. Bishop Southgate’s discourse was from the 80th, last verse of the first chapter of St. Luke: “And the child grew and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his showing into Israel.” His sermon was one of those eriginal, appropriate, and practical es- says which never fail to affect every honest heart. ‘ At the close of the discourse twelve candi- dates for confirmation presented themselves at the altar, and in the peculiarly impressive ser- vice of the church consecrated themselves to the Most High. The class consisted of fifteen, but three of the candidates were nnavoidably detained. To-night, Bishop Southgate administers the rite of confirmation at the church of the Ascen- sion, Rev. Dr. Pinckney, rector. SSE ee MABRIAGE.—There was an interesting wed- ding cerem@ny at the Methodist Protestant Church, ‘th street, at half past 1 o'clock this atternoon, the chureh being crowded on the occasion. The happy couple were Mr. Warren Choate (whose handsome face is usually to be seen at Philp & Solomon's Book Store,) and Miss Kate Missouri Ragan. The bridesmaid (both bride and bridesmaid being dressed in tastetul traveling costume,) was Miss Maggie Flenner, and the groomsman was Mr. James B. Wimer. The ceremony was performed by Rey. Dr. Nadal, of Wesley Chape!, whoshowed his good taste by claiming (according to the good eld custom) the first kiss from the charming bride. The couple were kept busy for some time in receiving the congratulations of their host of friends and then left to take the 3 P. M. train for their bridal trip northward. g —_—>—__— MEETING OF CIGAR MAKERS.—A larzenum- ber of the manuiacturers and dealers in cigars assembled at Emrich’s European Hotel, cor- ner of Eleventh street and Pennsylvania ave- nue, Ia-t night, for the purpose of electing del- egates to the convention to be held at Cooper Institute, city of New York, on Wednesday, Decem\ rr 7th, at 10 o’elock.
