Oar dispatches and exchanges indicate the enthusiasm and ioy which followed the glorious news from Fort Donelson, last Monday. The ringing of bells, the booming of cannon, bonfires, illuminations, fireworks nil tvebi;,-rt,f .n,; , 1.-4 .1 memorable day and night froo. one end of the North to the other. In this city, the intelligence was received with every conceivable demonstration of delight. Flags were displayed from public buildings, stores and private residences, a national salute was fired, and vast crowds assembled on the streets to congratulate each other over the victory and listen to the National airs disrprsed by the Crescent City Band. The loyal fugitives from Kentucky and Tennessee, who for months past have been in this city watching with anxious hearts for their deliverance, were almost delirious with joy. They embraced each other, and a friend of ours, who lives near Fort Donelson, and is now an exile for his love to the old flatr. went like a child. ' Amid the general rejoicing all were anxious for the safety of friends and neighbors in the gallant lltli, 24th and 25th Indiana regiments. The loss was represented so great, that many feared to hear further particulars from the fort. Subsequent dispatches prove that our loss has been greatly exaggerated, and that instead of thousands killed 'and wounded, we have only four hundred killed and eight hundred wounded. We must not forget to take into consideration the fact that thousands will be sick, many of them dangerously, from the exposure and privations to which they have been BuLjecled. The 25th regimen1 lay on their arms in the snow all day Thursday, and ninny a gallant soldier escaped the bullets of the enemy to die bv a lingering and painful disease. These - thiDgs are a part of the price of victory ; they are the incidents of this cruel war, and while we rejoice, we may mourn for the dead and prepare as best we may to succor and relieve the sick and dying. - The importance of the victory can- hardly be over-estimated. The enemy had concentrated at Fort Donelson, not only the eecaped garrison of Fort Henry, but the army of Buckner from Bowling Green, and of Floyd from irginia, making a force of more than 30,000 men, defended by formidable entrenchments, redoubts and fortifications, planned by the most skilful engineers in the rebel service. On our side was a superior force, unprotected, save by their own bayonets and artillery, without tents, exposed to three days and nights of storm but undaunted in their purpose to take the Fort at all hazards. That they would do o, no one donbted but we feared lest the determined valor of our men should lead them to great sacrifice of life in order to Storm the batteries of thn rebels. The capture of Fort Donelaon opens up to us me wnoie jsouiuera onieaeracy. tjur victorious army, flushed with success and directed by the skill of General Hailed?, will be irresistible in its onward march to Nashville and Memphis. A force superior even to that slumbering on the Potomac is concentrating on the Camberland, and no less than ene hundred thou sand men will compose the Grand Army of the West, to whom will be entrusted the sacred duty of crushing treason and re establishing law and order in the Valley of the Mississippi. Columbus will be gained) as was Bowling Green, ami the stronghold where, for months the enemy, has toiled to prepare defences of the most formidable character, will be taken without a blow. Nashville and Clarksvillu must either yield to assault or surrender at discretion. Another important result of the late victory and our advance into Teunessee, will be that the minds of Southerners will be enlightened as to the object of Ibis war. We have believed that so soon as the masses in the South could realize the truth that we only seek their welfare and the establishment of the Union, they would lay down their arms. The advance of onr troops will prove to them how grossly and wickedly they have been deceived by their leaders. The Union sentiment in the

It" '1

South will rapidly develope itself. "Should the Union army enter Tennesssee, fifty thousand are ready and anxious to protect their homes, and would at once cluster' around it," was the assertion of ihe prominent men all along the line of the Tennessee river, from Fort Eenry to Florence. ! In view of these facts, let us " take cour

age anew." All is well with us. The af fairs of State, like the affairs of men, " taken at the flood lead on to fortune." We are on the top wave, and we are certain it will bear our victorious legions to the Gulf. ; . Death op Mrs. Willard Mrs. Caroline C. Willard, wife of the late Governor Willard, died . of . consumption, . at . Haddam, Conn., oa Tuesday, the 11th lust., in the 35th year of her age. Mrs. Willard was a most estimable woman in all the relations of life. She was a devoted wife and mother, a sincere Christian, without guile, and an excellent member of society, ever ready by good works to promote - the happiness and well being of those around her. - The death of Mrs. Willard will sadden the hearts of her numerous friendj throughout Indiana and excite their deepest sympathy for her afflicted family. g" A number of secession 'vycspathizera in Evansville, were comforted by a typographical error in yesterday's Journal, whereby the number of prisoners taken at Fort Donelson was reduced by the accidental omission of a"0" from 15,000 to 1,500. We are happy to say that the number of prisoners will exceed 15,000, and that the more we learn of the victory the more brilliant and glorious does it appear. Secessiou is "played out" and the few wishywashy traitors in these parts, who .have hoped for the destruction of the government, but who were too cowardly to join their allies in its overthrow, may rest assured that they are more heartily despised by loyal men than the misguided soldiers who were willing to battle for the cause of the Southern Confederacy. Traitois of all kinds are despicable enough, but the man who to the character of a traitor adds that of a spy and coward sinks beneath the contempt of every loyal citizen; And just sncb we have in Evansville, who read the glorious news of Monday with sorrow and chagrin. A Singular Statsment. Tlie Cincinnati Gazette, of Monday, contains a communication from a Ker.tuckian, in which ho states that, during a recent vi.it to Washington, he detected n n.-iuitr of iitsa. McClellan's staff cloFeUii wi'h a nolo: ions rebel sympathizer. The parties were in a restaurant Stall, and the writer in order to identify the men beyond a doubt, opened the door, much to the embarrassment of all concerned. The " rebel sympathizer" is said to be Vallandingbam, who, the Nashville papers assure us, is " true as steel" to the South. The other gentleman is in great favor with the powers that be, and doubtless knows the plans of the Government. The Cincinnati Gazette says of the communication referred to : "It is from a reliable and responsible source, and should receive attention at Washington." The reported capture of Savannah, we hope may prove true, but the Navy Department at Washington has received no intelligence of such an event, and it was not known at Fortress Monroe. We are inclined to doubt it, from the fact that the Philadelphia Inquirer telegraphed to the Cincinnati Commercial that, "Savannah had been captured." The Inquirer has originated so many " cock and bull" stories since the war commenced, lhat we place very little confidence in its statements. The city will undoubtedly ;be ours in a few days, although the present report of its capture may prove premature. A Word to tlie Patriotic; While we are rejoicing over our recent victories, let us not forget the families of volunteers, who are now in this city dependent upon the Relief Association for the necessaries of life. We alluded to this subject the other day, and we wish now to call the especial attention of -our business men to it. Funds must be bad at once. Families are now suffering for wood , and coal, and the money in the hands of the Com. mittee is only sufficient to keep up the store of provisions. Shall the Committee ask in vain? Our armies in Kentucky have driven back the enemy, and are opening up the State to the trade and commerce of our city. Shall the families of these men suffer, while we," surrounded with plenty, are reaping the fruits of their labors? These are questions which must be answered. Let every merchant, without wailing to be called upon, leave his contribution with Dr. Hallock. The Committee want four or five hundred dollars, and they should have it at once; There 'are merchants in Evarsville who could afford , to pay the wtjple of it out of the profits of a day's sales. If we are all willing to do our duty, the amount will be forthcoming by noon to-day. " We publish, this morning, the bill introduced by Judge Lavfr, in reference to the establishment of a Military Post in this city. The bill had been read twice ami referred to the Military Committee. To strengthen the hands of our Congressman and urge the claims of onr city before the committee, it will be well to circulate a memorial and have it unanimously signed and forwarded to the committee. Wa publish this morning the re ported capture of Price's army. A friend at our elbow says, " that is laying it o i a little too thick," and he can't believe'l.iL Just onr sentiments ! gr The name of Fort Henry has been changed and called " Fort Foote," iu honor oi the gallant Commodore.

Representatives of ths United Slate of America in Congress assembled, That the Secretary of War be,- and : he is ' hereby authorized, under the direction of the President of the United States, to- eause-to- be instructed" and established at Evansville, "in the State of Iudiana, or in its immediate vicinity a Military Post, and te acquire in .the name of the United States such real estate as may be proper and necessary for such Post, and to procure to be specially ceded by the State of Indiana to the United States, the proper jurisdiction, of all such lands as may be acquired by the United States, Provided, that any purchase of lands for such Military Post, if made prior to the acquisition of such jurisdiction by the United States, shall be made only on condition that such jurisdiction shall be ceded by the State of Indiana at the first session of the Legislature of said State of Indiana, held after such purchase; and no payment shall be made until after such jurisdiction has been ceded to the United States. - - - Sec. 2. Be it further enacted, that such Military Post may be established prior to the acquisition of title to any real estate for that purpose, and buildings and grounds of said Evansville or in the immediate vicinity thereof, may be leased by the United Stales for temporary use.: ; i - Sec. 3. And be it farther enacted, that such Military Post, when so established, shall have assigned to it a permanent mili tary store keeper and such officers, as in the opinion of the Secretary of War, acting under the direction of the President of the United States, shall be deemed usual and proper, and said military store keeper shall receive as compensation for his services the sum of eight hundred dollars per annum, payable quarterly, and he shall have no other compensation. Sec. 4. And be it further enacted, that the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars is hereby appropriated, to be paid out of any monies in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this act. This act to take effect from and after its passage. " ' ,..-:.. January 15th, 1862. Read twice and referred to the Committee on Military Affairs. .- gMt is said, and we have no doubt truthfully, that ex-Senator Bright is not particularly displeased with the action of the Senate in ejecting him from his seat in that body.- It is quite certain that he made no decided" effort to retain his seat, knowing that at beat he only had about a year to serve. . He is an adroit politician, and doubtless hopes- trfift- he can turn his impulsion to sufficient account to secure his return to the Senate for another term of six years. That there are politicians in Indiana who will endeavor to commit the Democracy to the re-election of Bright we already have the evidence. Already the newspapers in his interest are filled to repletion with speeches and articles setting forth bis persecutions and sufferings, and the man who did more than any other in Indiana to elect Lincoln is held up as a kind of martyr to Democracy. All this is very tidiculous. Bright loner since cut loose from the Democracy in Indiana, and though they may have been perfectly willing to see him serve out the remnant of his term in the Senate, it is among the extreme improbabilities that any considerable portion ot them will want to see him sent back to the Senate. Seventeen years service is long enougu tor any man ot Jesse D. Bright s catiore. J. si. JLeager. gf-The United States Government is now building an iron-clad frigate at Phila delphia and otic at Mystic, Connecticut. The former vessel is to be 3,500 tuns burthen Her armament, we believe, has not yet been fally determined, but she will carry at least sixteen guns of eleven-inch bere, and will, doubtless, nave several deck pivot runs. Notwithstanding her immense weight, she lias been modeled so as to draw but fifteen feet of water, besides having the additional advantage of greater steadiness in a heavy sea. She is two hundred and thirty feet long, sixty leet beam, twenty-five feet hold; and will have three full decks. The frigate in course cf construction at Mystic,' is to be thoroughly iron-clad, and win nave a new pattern ot port holes, which have given rise to great expectations. She will not draw less than ten nor more than sixieea icei oi water, one will nave no beak projecting under water in front of her prow, and is, therefore, not intended as a ram, to run down vessels at sea. She will be armed with a small bowsprit, made of iron, to project forward, and her bow will be cased and made extremely strong; and, in whatever position placed, she Will present nothing but curved lines. As to her armament, it has not yet been decided upon ; but, in all probability, she will carry two pivot rifled guns of the largest caliber say eighty pounders and twelve thirtytwo pounders, also rifled.- These pieces will be so disposed that no one will be obliged to stand on the upper deck when the action will take place. She is to be of 1,000 tuns burden, and will weigh 3,000 tuns. f Some of the papers say that Bright was expelled only becaus he was a Democrat, This is all fudge, " There are other Democrats iu the Senate Rice, Thomson, McDugall, Neaaiith, Andrew Johnson, Bayard, Pearce, ic, &c Tbe3e men are juat as good Democrats as Bright is or ever was. Most of them, like Bright, supported Breckinridge; yet we do not bear of any movement being made for their expnlsion. The expulsion of Bright was a very foolish thing, no doubt, but it is ridiculous to say that be was expelled only because he was a Democrat.. ,He hasn't had Democracy enough for several years pa3t to hurt him. If the Republicans object was to punish a representative man of the Democracy they made a sad mistake wnen they hit upon Bright. jYcjuj Albany Ledger. Incidents op the Roanoke Victory.
