v . . LA tno-rcviLLS, tulT-sdit. fed. 23, issi. since car last issue car cny cas rjeen the eceno of considerable excitement. On Sunday, the 21st. a squad of ten soldiers, under: command of Lieut. Schenck, ar rived here f rem Nebraska City. They were sent to ferret cut and arrest the gang of borse thieves who have been for tome mcntlii past'makinj this section of country their field. of operations; and right well have they performed their duty. A large number of our citizens 'pitchrd in,' and by Monday night they had fif- leen prisoners, gainst nearly alL of whom there is very strong evidence. The work was quietly, quickly and efficiently done; no frenzed excitement prevailed, and linch law' was only hinted at by few. On Tuesday they were taken up to Ne braska City, we presume, to be tried by a court martial. We' hope this will stop such business for the future; but sill think it best not ttfabate in vigilence, as the present state of -affairs seem not entirely satisfactory. The ring-leaders have pot been caught, nor do thete fifteen comprise the whole gang. Startling developments may yet be expected."

' - " sciilsyig-holstein. The correct understanding of the questions involved in the present state of affairs between Germany and Denmark, requires a reading of the whols history cf the troubles in 1349-to 1S52. But those who remember the brave resistance offered by the Danes to the German forces at that time, will not consider the cement so unequal 3 it may appear when we only estimate strength by population! The battle of Idstedt was one of the best faughi battles which modern European history furnishes. The Danes defeated the German aniiy'cn very much the same ground which is likely to become the scene of the present contest, if it pro ceeds to blows. The narrowest part cf the Danish peninsula is not far from the southern line of the Duchy of Schleswig, and the latest accounts inform us that it was the purpose of the Danish Govern ment to make a stand on' the line cf the Dannewerk, and there meet their enemy. This Dannewerk is one of the most in teresting memorials of ancient times in Eurcpe. It is a fortification crossing the peninsula from water to water. It com mences on the Sley, a ford or bay of the Baltic, and extends to the Treens at Hol ingshead, whence that river and tnJ Eyder ate navigable to the sea. It runs about four miles south of bchleswi;?. which is an old town on the Sley, with a fine castle situated in an impassable bog or marsh in the very centre of the town. The Dannewerk was built, of earth, about A. D. 60S, by Gottfried, a Jutland king, to defend his dominions. . Ihe baga, or rhyimg chronicle of Olaf of Norway, contaius a passage showing that that cel ebrated viking, wb?n a soldier in a Ger man army, fought at the Dannewerk in A. D. 97S. In the year 1000 it was repaired and strengthened by brick and stone towers' and forts, and again in 144.0 it va'$ thoroughly repaired by Queen' Margaret. . The peasantry still call it Margaret's wall, and it is a for midable military work at' the present time. By natural position, as well as by the aid of this work, the Danish frontier is defensible by a small army, and the attle of Idstedt showed plainly the re markable ability of this people in mili tary operations. The following bill, to be entitled "An act to prohibit dealing in the paper cur rency of the enemy," has' passed both Houses of Conjrres: 1. The Congress of 'the Confederate States of America do enact: That no broker, banker,1 or dealer in exchange. or person concerned m-trade a3 a-mer chant, or vender of merchandise of any description, or any other person, except within the lines of the enemy, shall buy, ell, take, circulate, or in any manner trade in any paper currency of the United States: Provided, That the purchase of postage stamps shall not be considered a violation of this act. 2. That any person violating the pro visions of this act shall be subject to in dictment and prosecution in the Confed: erate Court holden for the dntrict within which the offense was committed, and shall, upon conviction, forfeit the amount so bought, sold, circulated or used, or a sum equal thereto; and shall be- more over subject to a fine of not more than twenty thousand dollars, nor less than five hundred, and be imprisoned not less thau three months, nor more than three years, at the discretien of said court ; and it shall be the duty of the Judges of the several Confederate Courts to give this act specially in charge to the Giaud Jurvj 44An act to put an end to the exemption from military service of those who have heretofore furnished substitutes.-" Section 1. The Congress of the Con federate States of America do enact that the above recited act shall not apply to farmers and planters engaged on the o:h of January, 1SG4, in Ihe production of the grain and provisions, either by their own manual labor in superintending the labor of others. Provided the ex emption herein contemplated is granted subject to the following conditions: I. That the person availing himself thereof shall devote himself, ar;d the labor of which he has the control and superintendence exclusively to the pro duction of provisions and family supplies. II. That there shall be' paid and con tributed from the farm, or, if more than one farm, from each of the farms which the persons thus, exempted owns or su perintends, in addition to the tithe3 re quir ed by any tax law, an additional tenth of the pork or bcon produced on said farm or farms (beginning with the product of last year), for the use of the army. , III. That the person thus exempted will, if so required,- sell all' his surplus provisions now on hand or hereafter raised, for the use of soldiers' families, or for the use of the army, at prices not greater than those fixed for the time being by the Commissioners appointed under the Impressment act. IV. That the person seeking to avail himself of the benefit of . this act shall have furnished a substitute not liable to military duty, who is not in ihe service, cr who has been legally discharged therefrom, or who has died therein. . V. That the benefit of this act shall not apply to persons on farms or planta tions on which there is any other male adult not liable to military duty. , Sec. 2. Nothing contained in this act shall be construed as limiting the power of the President, under existing laws", to ex-empt such persons .s he may deem proper, on grounds of equity, justice or necessity. . HOW THE REBELS BRAND. Branding deserters, as performed at Castle Thunder in Richmond, is des cribed as a beautiful -operation and as human as. beautiful. The culprit is fastened to a large table, with his face downwards, and a . large "D" scarred upen. his posteriors. A plain bar of iron about 'an inch in diameter, narrowed down n little at the point, is heated to incandescence, .and used as a sign pain ter would use a brush in lettering, only in a very slow aud bungling manner. A greasy smoke with a sickly stench arises, accompanied with crackling sounds arid the gleans of the victim as the hot iron sinks deep into the flesh. On pretence of rendering- the mark plaiD and indeli ble, tut in reality to torture the unfor tunate culprit - the hot iron is drawn many times through the wound, making it larger and deeper, until the victim, unable to endure the excruciation longer, faints and Is carried away. The opera-" tion is always performed by old Kep pard, the executioner of Kellogg, the greatest demon in human form outside of Pluto's realms. New York, Feb. 17. Army officers frcra the front express the opinion that within ten days the reads will enable the rebels "to move and they will initiate the spring campaign. Two opinions prevail, one is that they" will attack us square in front and endeavor to drive Meade with in the defences at Washington. The other is that Lee will go-rapidly up into Pennsylvania plundering . more vastly than last year, and fighting pitched, bat tles on a line of safe retreat. . . San. Francisco, Feb. 17.

Meade was in Wash ington yesterday, in consultation several hours with the Secretary of War and Gen. Halleck. A CLattanooga letter says the colored troops organized in the southwest by Adjt. Gen. Thomas will perform an im portant part in the Spring campaign in that region. Seventy rivo thousand colored men will be ready for sevice in the southwest by May first. A special to the Herald says there 13 no doubt that at an "early day the army of the Potomac will be consolidated into three grand corp3 de armee. Sedgwick Hancock and Couch are mentioned as commanders. On llonday Tiight, the first of February, two men from '(perhaps) the north side of Muddy, crossed the Lreek abo ve Cornell's, took -a direct line to the house of T, J. Camp bell.

Consider ing the season'of the year, the nature of the. country traveled over and the ter rible seventy of-the weather, we doubt whether a more remarkable -march has been made during the present war.
