DECEMBER 5, 1564. “a READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE, BEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER, THE PAROLED PRISONERS AT ANNAPOLIS On Monday last, Captain Van Morn, mus: tering officer of De Russey’s division; Captain Jadeon N. Cross, of the Veteran Reserve Corps, and late Provost Marshal of George: town; Captain Wm. A. Mott, Assistant Adju: tent, and Lieut. Mitchell ofthe 3d U.S. infan. | try, were dispatched to Annapolis, headed by | John Hiddle, chief engineer, and T. who were then transferred to the Lancaster, and the Salvador proceeded on her voyage. The Lancaster returned to Panuma with the prisoners. Before reaching Panama the leader of the pirates made a full confession. The namesof the pirates are: O. E. Hogg; of Baltimore, Captain: E. A. Swain, executive officer; J. L. Black, paymaster; R. B. Lyon, sailing master; Grady, aasistant encineer; and Joseph Higgiugs, pay- master’s clerk. , Hogg was recently captured in the Tristram Shandy, whilefrunning the blockade at Wil- ington. mie instructions from Mallory show that he | had a rebel commissign, and sailed from Wil- | mington for Havana, where he made up his gang of pirates. They had confreres all along | the coast, who were to join them. hhoge.8 instructions were, after getting pos. session of the steamer, to capture a California steamer with its treasure, and if not able to get the treasure across the isthmus, to deposit it with a reliable English house in Valparaiso,or send it to Europe. Captain J. S. Poland, of the 24 U.S. infantry, Uncer instructions trom the War Department | The French man-of- war steamer Gautemala which arrived back at Panama on the 15th, re- to effecta special muster for pay of the re- | ports seeing many suspicious persons anx- tevved prisoners lately paroled at Savan- We learn from one of these officers, who re- | turmed to this city on Saturday evening, that | up to Saturday morning about 4,(00 of the men | bad been mustered, some of whom haye al- ready received two months’ pay from the pay- masters at Annapolis, who were sent there | on Tbursday for the express purpose of pay- ing off the troops. Immediately upon the arrival ot a boat-load of paroled prisoners at Annapolis, the men throw off their tattered and soiled clothing, after which they go downto the shore and wash, and then they receive a new outfit of Uncle Sam’s clothing. They are then mustered by the above-named officers and each man re- ceives two months’ pay, after which he is mas- tered for commotation aud rations, and is far- nished with a thirty days’ furlough. A large number of the men are already on their way to the r homes in the North. After the mustering officers have finished their work at Annapolis they will return to | this city and complete the muster by reference to the rolls on file in the Second Auditor's and Paymaster General's offices, so as to speedily pay sil arrears to the men at the expiration of | their furloughs. The time of quite a number of these men has | expired, but many of them express a determi- | nation to re-enlistin the Ist corps, now being | organized ty Gen. Hancock in this city. Col. Root, commander of the post at Annap- olis, on Friday last received a letter from Uol. Multord, commissioner of exchange, in which that officer stated that as yet Sherman’s move- ments had not interfered with the exchange, and if such should continue to be the case, he | expected to effect the exchange of 1,000 per day. Orera—By a change in the programme, occasioned by the indisposition of Franz Him- mer, the opera season will open to-night with Gounod's opera of Faust, which will intro- duce to us performers of such renown as Sig. Tamaro end M’lle Dzubia, and also en- able us to resume our acquaintance with such favorites as Mille Frederici, Hermanns, Stei- necke, Lehman and Madame Zimmerman. Grover’s Theater, spacious as it is, will scarcely accommodate the crowds hungry for opera of the class to be furnished by this dis- tinguished company. To-morrow night Robert le Diable will be brought out in fine style. PERSONAL —Mr. Fenton, the Governor elect ot New York, arrived here yesterday, and is the guest of City Postmaster Bowen, at that gentleman's residence, on H street, between 6th and 7th nerth.

Burbridge with his command has reached Bean Station, and Breckinridge, apparently declining a battle, has fallen back towards Virginia.

The War in Tennessee—Latest News from Nashville—Enemy Troops Visible from the Capitol— Position of the Un’ Ferces, They are Entrenched Three Miles from the City—Surrender of a Block-House to the Rebeis—Escape of Col. Johnson and Others—No Signs of the Enemy Across the River. Naeuvitie, Dec. 4.—Our army still encir- cles the city; the east wing resting on the Cum- berland river. The enemy's lines are plainly to be seen from wien points in the suburbs, and from the Cap- itol. Our troops are entrenching themselves ina southwestern direction, about three miles from whe city. The general opinion is that Hood will attack the Federal forces in tront of Nashville. The first bleck-house on the Chattanooga road, four miles from the city, was defended by colored troops, commanded by Col. John- son, of the 21th colored infantry, who surren- dered Dalton, Ga. and was paroled. They beid out until this afternoon, when they sur- rendered. Jolone! Johnson and a portion of his men escaped on a train, which was fired into, when the conductor and others were killed. Several jeaped trom the train into the river, and es- caped. Col Jobnson was among those who arrived in the city to-night. A reconnoitering party sent out on Thursday returned to-day, having gone eighty mules up the river, and reported that no rebels were seen or knowledge obtained of their cros*- ing the river, and none appeared along the banks. A rebel deserter who came in to-day reports that Gen. S. D Lee published ar order to his men on Friday, complimenting them on their bravery, devotion, &c., thanking them for the victory won at Franklin, and assuring them that, if true to themselves now, in front of Nashville, they would soon beenabled to enter and take possession of a vast amount of stores contained there. Cenditi i Gen. Stanley. Lov isviLyx, Dec. 3.—Gen. Stanley lett here for his home at Yellow Springs, Ohio, this eve- ning. His wound is somewhat painful, batis not dangerous.

The North Star has #360,000 in teasure. A Panama letter on the 16th ult., recerved to- day by the North Star, bas the following im- portant inteliigence: There was muchexcitement in Panama dur- ing the past week, caused by the following in- cidents On the 25th ot October the American Consul in #Anama had received a despatch from Con- sul Sbuteldt, at Havana, stating that the same steamer briaging the despatch would also tage | to Aspinwall a party of rebel pirates intending | to seize the steamer Guatemala. The agent of the company was notified of the plot, and sent the Guatemala to sea before the arrival of the pirates across the Isthmas of | Panama, covsequently they werejobliged tore- main at Panama tll tbe luth of November, the Gay of the sailing of the next steamer, the Sal- vador | Meantime further information was obtained, | wud 4 plan for the capture of the whole gang matured.

Sufficient evidence was at once discovered , roving tbe reality of the plot. when the Sal Gor was taken tosea over three marine mi accompanies by the Lancaster Prpers revealing the whole affair, instrac- tiows from the rebel Secretary of the Navy, Malicry, emall.arms of sil kinds, handcuffs, &c., were found in the possession of the pirates, jously awaiting the arrival of some steamer at La Libertad and Acajuito, undoubtedly accom- plices of the pirates. These latter had come across the country via Omoa from Havana. They have probably been arrested ere this, as the Government of San Salvador has been notified that they were pirates. On-the 12th ult. Admiral Pearson, command- ing the American squadron in the Pacific, ac- companied by Counsul McKee, of Panama.and Consul Rice, of Aspinwall, waited on the Pre- sident of Grenada, in Panama, to ask permis- sion topass the prisoners across the isthmus in order to send them to New York. The Pre- sident refused permission on the ground that he ts not empowered to do so, but he presumed they might be taken across on the responsibility of the American officials.

Her husband came on from the West, divided his property with the woman, and then let her go with her paramour. &7 The police of the city of Boston. have an understanding with the dealers in phosphorus, by which every purchaser of the article will be traced, so that it will be almost impossible to obtain any for purposes of incendiarism.

Richmond papers of the 3d (Saturday) have been received. They contain a despatch from Gen. Bragg, dated Augusta, Georgia, the 2d instant, in which he claims to have badly re- pulsed Gen. Foster @ second time, the fight having been at Coosewatchie, sixteen miles from Pocotaligo. [Col. Foster, it will be re- membered, went Head to eperate on the Charleston and Sayan- nah railroad, and, despite this bragging of Bragg, we believe that his main movementhas been successful.—Ep. STAR. ] Bragg also alleges that at that date (Friday night, December 2d,) Sherman had not taken Millen, Georgia, nor attempted to. The Richmond Examiner of Saturday pro- fesses to have information causing it to believe that Sherman will not reach the sea coast with half his army. The Examiner, however, gives no data for its belief, and go its allegation may be set down as a bit of Confederate brag to keep their courage up. A RUMOR. Hotel rumor has it as we go to press that General Sheridan is to be the new commander of the Army of the Potomac. We «re not aware how far hotel ramor, (usually not the most reliable authority in the world,) may be posted in this instance. CAPTURED REBEL OFFICERS. The following rebel officers, who were cap- tured on the Istinstant by Gen. Gregg in his cavalry raid, arrived here this morning from the Army of the Potomac, and were committed to the Uld Capitol :—Major Norman Fitzhugh, of Gen. Hampton’s staff; Capt. David Wald- heimer. of Jett. Davis Legion; Lieut. J. E.Way, do.; Lieut. J. Connolly, 3d Alabama cay- alry; Lient. H. Craig, 4th South Carolina cay- alry; Lieut. S. F. Foster, 5th South Carolina cavalry; Lieut. J. E. Gilchrist, 4th South Uar- olina cavalry, and Lieut. J. B. Sample, Hal- comb Legion. Major Fitzhugh has been recognized as an officer who, some time since, compelled one of our captured cavalry officers to take off his boots, and then took possession of them him- self. The Union officer was marched off asa y risoner of war, while Major Fitzhugh sporséd Lis boots. 3 Lorp Lrons.—We hear it stated ‘athens Lyons, whose health we regret to say is not good, will leave this city to-morrow to take Wednesday’s steamer for Liverpool.

The last rail was put in place yesterday morn- ing, and now Washington may rejoice in being doubly tied to Baltimore. The track in some places needs ballasting, and the new one will not be used for passenger trains for a day or two. in the meantime the repair trains are using he pew track, and will have it in stannc. order before it is turned over for gen- eral use This work was of greater magnitude than tie pi! lic would suppose, in many places the cents turongh which the old single track passed he ing to be widened, and in other places a large amount of grading wasdone. The new track i: ballasted in the most sabstantial man- ner, a: d will stand for years. ‘Ths work is of great importance to the tray- eling public, as, with the two lines, in case it is necessary, trains may be kept running con- stantly without chance of collision. Thus our branchroad has her double track completed fist, and, no doubt, with this im- provement the time on the road will be much shortened. The P. W. and L. road and the C. and A. road to New York will soon have their double track completed. and then the traveling community will have all the facility and ac- commodation they can wish bstween New York and this city. toe Criminal Court was convened this morn- ins, Judge Fisher on the bench.
