FOR SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION, MILTON B. HOPKINS, of Clinton. The News—Our Victories. The news this week is perhaps more fa vorabie than the most sanguine could have anticipated. The fall of Fort Don elson after a desperate siege of three days resulted in she capture ol 15.0 DD prisoners, with all their equipments, several Generals, among them Gen. Johnston, the commander ot their Western Department, ,I, r» oI la.-c TJ.riarul tn th ' •• 1 * - " Our torccs in Missouri have driven the rebel Price from Springfield, and as Gen. Curtis telegraphs Gen. Halleck, captured more prisoners than be knows what to do with. Rumors are not wanting that they have pursued Price and captured him, but as he is of the Pillow and Floyd order of Generals, we shall not give the report credence until we have it confirmed. Genera] Buel’s advance division under command of Gen. Mitchel has occupied the rebel stronghold of Buckner, Bowl ing Green, with little opposition, it hav ing been evacuated by the rebels, with the exception of the rearguard. At Washington there is a general belie! that Manassas is being evacuated — 1! not true, its occupation can only be , temporary. On the North Carolina coast General Burnside has captured Roanoke Island and its garrison, some 3,000 men, with a large amount of stores and munitions ol war. Ho has also destroyed the rebel gunboat fleet, and occupied the principal towns situated on Albemarle sound. Further south, from Sherman’s divisit n we have the cheering intelligence that Savannah has been captured. I All these victories coming upon the rebels like the lightening’s flash cannot ' but have a stunning eflect upon the rebellion, and will make them real zn that the “great constrictor is about contract- | ing his folds in earnest. We can hardly realize the importance of these combined < results; their effect upon the rebels can 1 hardly be estimated. It rifts the dark I cloud of doubt, and lets tali upon us the ( cheering rays of hope, in this, one of the , darkest hours of American history. ■ The capture of Fort Donelson opens 1 the way to Nashville, and leaves General Halleck to cut off communication with Columbus, and attack it in the rear, un- 1 less the rebels take the hint and leave 1 before thev fall into the net which is being spread for them. Our troops once in Nashville, the rub I els will be cut off from Tennessee and r Southern Kentuckey, a rich and fertile , country which has contributed largely to the support of the army of M miss is. ] And last but not least, it will at once n solve the great problem, whether the southern people are united in the effort I to establish the Southern Confederacy. , We shall soon know whether they have been quietly smothering their indignation , and bowing to the dictatorship of a mil itary despotism, which they were unable 1 to overthrow, or whether they will cn masse resist the progless o! the F< d oral arms, Every indication leads us to the conclusion that they will hoist the Stars and Stripes with joy, and gather in their might and smite the oppressor. Should this piove true, the rebellion has received its death blow —a blow from which there is no hope of recovery. We have passed one danger, foreign interference , the game is now in cur own hands; and if prudence and discretion mark our progressia Cabinet and Camp, the restoration of our Union under the Constitution is only a question of time. While we wait and hope let us remember wish grati.ude the privations and sacrifices of our biavs soldiers, and above all cherish the memory of the brave patriotc who have fallen while breasting the storm, who have offered their lives a sacrifice, upon tb- ir country* altar. Since the above was in type, we find there was an error in Tuesday’s news of the capture ol General A Sidney John son. The Johnson captured it a new fledged Brigadier-Gen . Buehrotl Jol,nsou of Tennessee, General Buckner wa» senior officer.

. . . . . j ~ „ i —rtMSimi’i FEDERAL SUCCESS IN M'SSOURI. Price’s Rear Guard Retaken and Large Quantities of Wagons and Baggage Captured. General Halleck has received dispatches from General Curtis stating that Price’s rear-guard was overtaken in the pur . suit from Springfield, and after a brief resistance, the rebels fled, leaving the roads strewn with wagons and baggage. General Curtis reports having taken more prisoners than he knows what to do i with. It never rains hut it pours. Springfield, Mo., Feb. 14 —Our army, under command ol General Curtis, marched from Lebanon on the 11 th inst., formed in three divisions, the right under Colonel Jeff, C. Davis, the left under I Colonel Carr, and the center under Gen Siegel. Six miles from Springfield, on the 12 h, a skirmish took place between our advance guard and a party of rebels, in which nine ol the latter were killed, one of our men was slightly wounded. At sunseton the same day 300 of the enemy attacked our pickets, but were driven back with a loss of thirty. This was regarded as the commencemtnt of the haul" ” n,vl •— J infantry, with a battery of artillery, were sent forward. The battery was placed on an eminence commanding the'supposed approach of the rebels, and three shells were thrown, to which no response was made, and our force retired, leaving a strong picket guard. Continuous firing was kept up by the pickets At three o’clock on the morning of the 13. h our army advanced in line of battle, and at daybreak the third division, headed by the Fourth lowa, entered and took peaceful possession of the town. Price had left at two o’clock on the same morning, leaving over six hundred ol his sick and a large quantity of forage and wagons behind him. He had 15,DU0 effective troops and fill, pieces of artillery, Yesterdav evening a battalion ol our cavalry captured one hundred wag ons of his train, and last night firing by pickets was heard in the direction of the retreating foe. This morning, at six o’clock, our whole force followed the rn-mv. It is reported that Price is merely falling back to meet Mclnto-Ji, who was coming; up with reinforcements, and on his joining him he would return and give us bat- ■ tie. The probabilities are, however, that he is in full retreat. People in and around Springfield express unbounded satisfaction at. the arrival of our troops, and generel rejoicing is I manliest I hroughont the South-west at the retreat of the rebels This expedition will doubtless end the campaign in MNsouri. ■«, — 111 — - The Wounded of' Fort Denc.l-'on S« lutes. St. Louis, Feb. 17 — All the wounded of both sides at Fort Donelson will be , brought here, and plac d in the hos itals A dozen or more surgeons, wi h a corps , of hospital nurses, left this afternoon for th“ battle field, to assist in their transportation. National salutes were fired at the Ben ton Barracks, the Arsenal, Jefferson Bar racks, and all the Forts surrounding the city, to day, ih honor of the victory at FtDonelson. From New Mexico Kansas City, February 17.—Santa Fe mail with dates ot Jm. 31s', has arrived. Gen, Silbley’s command of 3.000 Tex ans and 8 field pieces — 2 b. ing 32 pounders— advanced as far ns Sinta Barbara, but for some unaccountable reason, had retired in the direction of El I'aso. Col, Canby, with 1 300 regulars and 2,000 Mexican volunteers, is after him. Brig. Gen, Hovey, staff and column left Santa Fe on the Ist for the scene of act ion. The plizi had been well guarded to prevent its destruction. Several copies of Sibley's proclamation had been seiz -d by the authorities. The Kiowi, Camanche, Cheyennes. Arapaho, Sioux, and a portion of the Apache Indians are concentrating at Pawnee fork to hunt buffalo, From Washington, Washington. Feb. 1G — It is believed by military men here, that Manassas will be evacuated by Cue rebels as Bowling Greeen has been. As soon as Tennessee is released from rebel despotism, the carrying of the Uni I ted States’ mail will be resumed on tile old established routes, It is generally believed that the propo- i si'.ion recently brought by the rebel flag ol truce was to refer the present dispute to foreign arbitration. The work of thoroughly reorganizing the War Department is rapidly progressing. To day a number of clerks were notified to leave snd prohibited from revisiting the Department again. JCyThe ship McCully of Baltimore ; v as boarded by the privateer Sumter, but released on learning that it was a Baltimore vessel. Xi’ Our boys in the If th Indiana who have been spoiling for a fight so long, have at last been gratified. The 11th bore an honorable part in the capture of Fort D inelsi ii. There is intense anxiety on the part of friends to hear from them, It will be little short o( a miracle if all have escaped unscathed. I

THE SIEGE OF FORT DONELSON. i I ; THE FORT INVESTED B V LAND AND WATER. , PROGRESS OF THE SIEGE—SURRENDERED SUNDAY MORNING. 15.000 Troops, 20,000 Stand of Arms, 3,000 Horses, 4S Field Pieces, 17 Heavy Guns, and Ammunition and Stores a Large Am unit Captured —5,000 Killed Sl Wounded. [Special Dispatches to the Cincinnati Gazette.] Camp Enfield, Near Ft Donelson ) Eebruarv, 13, 12.30 ( Fort Donelson is invested by onr troops. Our lines are formed *rom fight to left, irom north to south, nearly surrounding ths fort. Heavy canonading and skirmishing has been going on since 7 30 A. M. ’Gen. MriCleinind's division isoperating on the right wins' and Gen Smith’s on ; the left. We have had but one gunboat «» i 1 •» upon the rebel tort until just within the last half hour, when the other gunboats 'commenced firing. The force within the breast works is • estimated, from the best information, at about 15.000. No reenforcements can now arrive, as all communication ia cut I off. All the officers are acting with great valor, exhibiting fearlessness highly creditable to our Western army. ; Gen. Grant and staff have been riding along the lines all the morning, regardless ; of the grape that is being showered in ev- I ery direction. 81' M , 13th. — The cannonading skirmishing has continued briskly all day, I but has lately discontinued. A consider- j able unmber have been wounded ou both ! sides. The Twenty-fifth Indiana, which; rushed boldly up to the intrenchments, ! had during the day, forty of their num-j ber wounded, ill slightly. The Seventh j Illinois and Seventh lowa, who have been close to the enemy’s fire, lost some men. Among the killed is Capt. Wendell, 7lh Illinois. Col Morrison, of the Forty-ninth Illinois is wounded. Birge’s Sharp hooters have done good service’ They kept I several of the enemy’s guns idle by pick- ■ ing off the cannoniers as fast as they appeared at the guns. Captain Brink, wiih a company of cavalry, went around to I the left bank of the river this afternoon 1 and reports that the gunboat Carondolet received a ten-inch ball through her case. I mate which wounded eight men, but did not injure the boat materially. February 15—Firing commenced atrain at da’break, und oontitiuril hl interI vais ail day yesterday ( u riday.) Upto ■ lour o’clock no movement <>r assault by the land force had been been made. Night before last an attempt was made by the rebels to take Taylor's battery or light artillery, but they were repulsed by two regiments, and driven back beyond their intrenchments Our loss in wuunis considerable, but not more than three or lour are dangerously wounded. Six gunboats arrived yesterdav, and commenced an attack on the fort fit two, P. M. The fifing was very rapid and ; severe, and lasted an hour and twenty minutes, when our gunboats fell back.— The tour ironclad boats went within three hundred yards of the fort. Ail of the rebel’s river guns, except six, were either 1 dismounted or silenced. The firs', shot fired from the Louisville dismounted the rebel's twenty-eight pounder. The Louisville received fifty seven shots, two of which took effect, one sinking the starboat side of her deck and passing through the length of the boat, killing three men, and broke her tiller rope a short distance rom the pilot house, and so much disabled tlie steering tackle that the boat was compell-d to drop astern. Ona shut struck the Pittsburg in the bow and stove an immense hole in ber, which caused her to draw out of action The leak, i however, lias been stopped. One shot struck the pilot house ol the St. Louis passing through it between the Pilot’s legs without injuring him. The gunboats will not be in condition to renew their attack before to morrow moruing. In consequence of the hight of the bluff on which their fortifications are built, our shot cannot have as much effeet on them as those on Fort Henry, therefore it will require a much longer {time to reduce this fort. The rebels have raised the black flag, It can be seen flying Irom the bank, a a short distance above here. I leave for ! the column again at once. SECOND DISPATCH. Camp in Field, near Fort Donelson, February 15. 6 P. M. The right wing of our force before Fort | Donelson, commenced the storming of the fort about noon, and have taken the j right wing of the enemy’s fortifications, over which the stars and stripes are now floating in triumph. The opposing forces are now about breast to breast, ready to 1 open the work of death upon each other at any moment. We have lost two lieutenant-Colonels killed, one of whom is Lieut Col. Smith ;of the Forty-eight Illinois, and two Colonels wounded. The Eighteenth Regiment fought like tigers, and are pretty badly cut up. l l.e loss on both sides is pretty severe. Swartz's Battery, captured by the rebels this morning, has been retaken. Chicago, Feb. 17 —A special to the ; Times. Irom D -nelson on the 16th, says ; Fort Donelson surrendered at day light

I this morning, unconditionally. W e have I Generals. Buckner Johnston and Bushrod 'R. Johnston. 15.000 prisoners -irtd 3 000 i horses.

I Gen Smith led the charge on the lower end of the works, and was tiist inside the fortifications The Fort Henry runaways were bagged here. The prisoners loading on steamers for Cairo, Our loss is heavy —probably 400 killed and 800 wounded. We lose a large percentage of officers; among them Lieutenant Colonels Irwin of the Twentieth Illinois, White o l ' the Thirty first., Smith of the Foriy-fci.gbtf Colonels John A. Logan, . Lawler and Ransom tire wounded Major 1 Post, of the Eighth Illinois, with 200 privates, are prisoners, and gone to Nashville, being taken the night before the suraei<er The enemy loss is heavy - but not so large as ours, as thev fought 1 hehindiintrenchments..

Taylor's, Willards Me Allisi ter’s, Schwartz’s and Dresser’s batteries were in the fight Irom the coramence- ! went. i The enntny turned our right for half i an hcur, hut our lost ground was m ore ! than regtiined. Lanlan's brigade of Smi'h’s division, was first in the lower end of the enemy s ■ works, which was done by a charge of j bavonels, at which nine-tenths of the reb' 'els wire pitted against our right. Our ! forces on the right were ready all night |to commence the attack. On Sunday | I morning they were met on their approach , ' Buckner having sent early in the morining a dispatch to Gen. Grant, surrender ing. The works of the fort extend some I five miles on the outside. The rebels I lost 48 field pieces 17 heavy guns 20,000 stand of arras, besides a large quantity of commissary stole . They completely de moralized, and have no confidence in their leaders as they charge Pillow and ; Floyd with deserting them. Our troops i from the moment of the investment of the fort, on Wednesday, lay on their arms night and day, half the time without provisions— all the time without tents —a’ portion in a heavy rain and snow. Springfield. Mo., February 16 —Ac cording to the latest advices the federal army was in vigorous pursuit of the rebels. Price’s army was on Cane Creek twenty nine miles from here, on Friday evening and our forces were five miles in their rear, preparing to make an early start in pursuit the next morning. Price bad placed his train in advance. About 100 wagons containing supplies for him were brought into this place from Forsyth, only a lew hours before his ret treat. R-bel sympathizers here claim that Price will be r. in forced by 12 or 15 reg, imenfS from Bentonville. Arkansas, under Gen Van Dorn, but General Siegel, who was advancing on the rebel column bv a different route than that pursued by 'Geneial Cuitis, may strike a blow on their flank and upset Price’s calculation. Four rebel < slicers and thirteen privates fell into our hands on Friday, and are now here. The offl tors are the notorious Colonel Freeman, major Berry, aid dej camp to General Mcßride, Captain Dick- ' inson chief engineer and Captain D.>wn- ■ ell, quartermaster. A pony express, , with relay post, has been established by | Captain Baldwin between Rolia and this ■ point. i -t. -■ Congressional. Ht-USB. Washington, Feb. 17 Mr. Colfax of Ind. asked and readily obtained permission to make a statement ’ relative to Fort Donelson. ' Amid profound silence, Mr. Colfax said Gen McClellan had authorized him 1 to inform the House that he had just received a dispatch from Cairo intorming j him of the arrival of the gunbo it Carondolet at thnt place, bringing the news of ’ I the capture of Fort Donelson yesterday iby the land forces of the Uniied Slates, with 15,000 prisoners, including General Sidney A. Johnson and Genera] Buckner General Floyd ran and escaped.— ' The loss on both sides is very heavy. Applause greeted the dispatch. Mr. Wright moved an adj jurnment.— Disagreed to. The House evidently at the time was not in a proper condition for business. ‘ Mr. Mallory moved to discharge the Committee on the Conduct ot the War as from the good news this morning there seemed to be no further use for them. This was greeted with loud laughter and cries of agreed. , Advices from Bowling Green—Great Ex- , citement in Louisville. Louisville, F< bruary 17—Bowling Green advices say that Gen. Mitchel cap- ' lured five locomotives at the depot and scattered the last of the rebels, killing some fiiten by shells. - Great excitement and rejoicing here at the capture ol Furl Donelson, in honor of ' which a supper is given at the Galt House > this evening to Gen.
