Whitelt and Green, of the 26th Indiana regiment, captured at Morganza, had escaped from Tyler, Texas, and reached New Orleans.

The number of deaths in the city during the week ending January 31, was 122--72 whites, 38 blacks, 12 mulattoes.

The Constitution and Union (peace) newspaper office in Fairfax, Iowa, edited by Dave Sheward, was visited by company E, of the 2d Iowa volunteers, on the 7th inst., and the type and paper were thrown out of the window and the subscription books were destroyed. A Washington dispatch says five blockade runners, recently from Richmond, were arrested on the stage from Port Tobacco, Maryland.

While he does not think this war will be a seven years war, yet neither this year nor the next, in his opinion, will see its end. Much hard fighting is to be done before the rebellion will cease. Great and grave questions of anxiety and trouble will arise and run on, and vex the nation beyond the lifetime of this generation. But the Union will be preserved, the national life perpetuated, and the United States will come out of this te

s: You judge me right; I am a Conservative Union man. I inhabit the temperate zone of politics; the frigid and torrid zones I avoid Madison truly wrote that the purposes of this Government are "to support the Constitution, which is the cement of the Union, as well in its limitations as in its authorities; to respect the rights and authorities reserved to the States and to the people, as equally incorporated with and essential to the success of the general system." And in the words of Jefferson, the "support of State Governments in all their rights, as the most competent administrations for our domestic concerns, and the surest bulwark against anti-republican tendencies, the preservation of the General Government in its whole constitutional vigor, as the sheet anchor of our peace at home and safety abroad."

The Administration is so notoriously corrupt that to become its apologist is dangerous, if not fatal to the reputation of any respectable man.

The latest advices from New Orleans are to the 3d inst. The Convention which Banks had called had split. The Picayune says: The nominating Convention, which met at Lyceum Hall last night, had a stormy time of it, and did not get fairly through with the business on hand till midnight. At length the elements were found to be so inharmonious that a separation was resolved upon, and about half of the delegates followed the President protem to the Free State Committee rooms.

Of Gen. McClellan's military career Gen. Scott declines to speak--first, because he recommended him for the position of Commander in-Chief, and because a court martial is to be called, and, as he may be one of the judges, he does not wish to prejudge the case. I could not understand whether Gen. McClellan desired the court marshal, or whether it was to be ordered by the Government. He was clearly disappointed that Richmond was not taken; but whether it was the fault of Gen. McClellan, Gen. McDowell, or the interference of the Government, General Scott declined to give an opinion. Of Gens. Burnside and Hooker, and other commanders of that stamp, he regarded them as loyal men, brave men, good division commanders, but wholly incompetent to plan or execute a military campaign. Of Gen.

With the exception of President Lincoln, who is personally honest, because he is too imbecile to be otherwise, no member of the Administration is free from the taint of guilt. There is corruption Treasury Department is corrupt from top to bottom; even the State Department, which has very little to do with jobs and contracts, has not escaped calumny.
