From Pensacola. A dispatch was received on yesterday afternoon, in official quarters, from General Bragg, and dated on the 2nd inst., in which he stated that Fort Pickens opened on a Confederate-steamer on the day previous and that the Confederate batteries replied, and firing from both sides continued all day. No vessels were engaged, and no casualties occurred on our side. General Anderson was in command, as General Bragg was absent, but the latter returned very early on yesterday morning. The Federals did not renew the attack on yesterday, and our guns were silent.
by the reward of labor, which is much better. Nor are the members of the society unemployed. Their skillful hands labor too upon these same garments, and their earnings and fines for absence constitute a fund to be best owed as their united wisdom may direct. Donations of wool have also been obtained, and, as speedily as possible, transformed into socks for the soldiers. Nor have our generous and patriotic young ladies been satisfied with these efforts. They gave on Friday night, the 13th, an exhibit on of tableaux and charades, which gave great satisfaction to the audience, and in the judgment of all present was a decided success, while at the door nearly $40 rewarded their efforts for the same glorious cause. None of them had ever appeared before, and but few had seen such exhibitions; and yet: all the pieces showed ease, skill and dignity. So popular was the entertainment that many not present regret their want of information, and there is a strong demand for its repetiti
By the Governor of Virginia — a proclamation. --Where is, information has been received by the Executive, that John W. Park, who was contacted in the Jal of Prince William county charged with larceny and John Wood, confined on the charge of murder, broke said jail, and escaped on the night of the 20th inst., and are now going at large; therefore, I do hereby offer a reward of fifty dollars to any person who shall arrest the said John W. Park and deliver him into the jail of the said county of Prince William; and a reward of One Hundred Dollars for such arrest and surrender of John Wood. And I do, moreover, require all officers of this Commonwealth civil and military, and request the people generally to use their best exertions to procure the arrest of the said John W. Park and John Wood, that they may be brought to justice. Given under my hand as Governor, and under the Seal of the Commonwealth at Richmond, this 28th day of December, in the year 1861.

Davis, of Fort Sumter fame, and Fred, Steele, of the 11th regular infantry, and the brave officers and soldiers of our army, regulars an volunteers. General Price's designs to stir up rebellion in North Missouri, and simultaneously burn all railroad bridges, stations, and rolling stock, on the 20th of this month, in accordance with a plan promulgated from the round camp, have been foiled, to a great extent, by the energy of General Halleck and activity of our forces, which are kept in constant motion, not withstanding the severity of the weather. The damage done to the North Missouri and Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad has been greatly exaggerated. Repaired are being rapidly made, and both the North Missouri Railroad and telegraph wire will be in working order to Wellsville to-ni
From Pensacola. --Gen. Bragg's Twelve Months Proposition a Success.--Our latest advices from Pensacola and the Navy-Yard are to the 22d ult. A letter to the Mobile Advertiser, says: As I have mentioned before, the proposition of Gen. Bragg to his twelve months men will prove a perfect success, if not interfered with at Richmond. Numbers have already gone home on furlough, and others are to follow their example. I have conversed with a great many of the volunteers, and have not yet heard one say he intended retiring wholly from the service after his term of enlistment expired. As an evidence of the war feeling among the twelve months troops, I will state that the regiment of Col. Chalmers, designed for the war, now numbers five hundred men, divided into seven companies. These companies, I am informed, are composed of the first material in the army, and that Col. Chalmers will be allowed to recruit his companies to one hundred and fifty men. He will, therefore, be able to

Rebels are prowling through Perry, fletcher and Beethell counties, robbing and swearing Union men to support the Southern Confederacy. The Burnside expedition — the troops at Annapolis — arrival of transports, &c. The correspondence of the New York Post, who will accompany the Burnside expedition writes from Annapolis, on the 24th ult., as follows: The storm has prevented much out-door progress in the outfit of the expedition. The barque H. D. Brookman, Captain H. E. Cheney, is the only arrival of to-day. The naval part of the expedition is now arriving at Old Point Comfort, and Commodore Goldsboro', who is in command, is already there. The transports with the troops will probably sail from here to that point on Saturday. General Burnside is busily engaged in forwarding the expedition as rapidly as possible, but

The Trent Affair. The position of the Lincoln Government in regard to the seizure of Messrs. Mason and Blidell has at length assumed definite shape, and the world is no longer held in suspense. Lord Lyons, on the 26th ult., sent to the State Department the demand of the British Government for their surrender; and a day or two afterward Secretary Seward replied in a lengthy communication, signifying the assent of the abolition Administration to the demand. Messrs. Mason and Slidell will therefore be restored, and the long agony is over.
