Prisoners of War. --Three men, friendly to the cause of Abraham Lincoln, and therefore enemies of the South, were brought here from Loundoun county yesterday as prisoners. Persons of this description, who intest the border, are capable of doing much mischief, and the sooner they are put out of the way the better.

overeign States; to take possession of wealthy and luxuriant cities; to apportion vast landed properties among their troops; to set several millions of negroes free and to establish the Federal Government throughout the old Union in such impregnable strength, that nothing could shake it, and none dispute its supremacy, forever more.--They proposed to do all this in a very few months. A man in their midst who had hinted a doubt of its accomplishment in less than four months from the date of Lincoln's call for seventy-three regiments, would have been instantly bastiled in Fort Lafayette. But nothing of all this splendid programme has been accomplished. Their money is gone, the prestige of their troops lost, and footing is obtained nowhere in the South, except where treachery and deception have accomplished for them what their valor could not. Nay, they have lost ground; for whereas they felt secure of Kentucky, that State, after hard fighting, is sure now to be ours; and whereas they

be laid up for a few days for repairs, so we are to be distributed to the other vessels for the present expedition. This is the third now in as many days, and this place is in considerable excitement, I can assure you. Two days ago one of Lincoln's steamers attached one of our batteries at Warsaw, just below here, but was driven off. No one hurt on our side, but we could not tell whether any were with them. We saw the vessel as we were coming up, but could not go down near her, as our per, when we looked round and saw a whole regiment in tears, and its noble leader putting on the whole armor of Christ, that thus doubly clad he might lead them to victory over their earthly foes, and a glorious triumph over the last enemy. " Very handsome. Gen. J. R. Anderson, in command at Wilmington, (says the South Carolinian,) in anticipation of our receiving a visit from Lincoln's fleet, has gallantly offered South Carolina five thousand men to assist in repelling the invader.

otton it will require for a breastwork five feet high, ten or twenty feet at the base and one mile and a half long, and then study history and ascertain how many bales of cotton were raised in the United States in 1814, and how many bales were in New Orleans in December, 1814? If they figure it out correctly they will speedily ascertain. In the meantime, with the exception of the eighty-two bales of cotton used, (which, by-the-bye, belonged, as did the balance of the two hundred and seventy-seven bales, to our quondam citizen, Vincent Nolte,) the entire breastwork and fortifications of the plains of Chalmette were composed of nothing but real Louisiana mud. Our authorities are now piling up some more miles of mud, and only wish Lincoln, Seward, Cameron and their minions will appear before them at any time before this and next spring. We hope there will be an end to the talk of cotton bales used in the campaign. It it time that history should be respected to refute the assertion.

Latest Northern news. interesting from Washington — affairs at Fortress Monroe--the great storm North--terrible Shipwreck near Boston, &c. From New York papers as late the 4th inst., we are enabled this morning to present our readers a full summary of news from Lincoln's dominions: From Washington. The New York Herald's Washington correspondent of Sunday, the 3d instant, communicates the following account of the progress of the war and other matters in and around the Federal capital: The naval fleet--eighteen reported Wrecked. A rumor has been prevalent here this evening that the recent storm had fallen with great fury upon the great naval expedition, off Cape Hatteras, scattering the vessels in every direction, and swamping or wrecking eighteen of them. This rumor is not, however, credited in official circles. The Government has no such intelligence. The latest dispatches received by the Government from the fleet were from off Cape Henry, describin
