' We find in the Boston Journal the following account of the arrival of the prisoners from Forte Laylayetto and Columbus at Fort Warren, situ ated.on George's Island in the harbour of Bos ton : The steamer arrived at the fort at half past five o'clock, having on board 100 political prison ers at Fort Layfayette, 633 ofi.be prisoners taken at Hatteras inlet, and 83 men, invalids and others, from Bedloe's island, the whole under a guard of 126 men and eight officers. Among the prisoners are ex-Governor More head, of Kentucky, who, on his last visit to Bos ton, was received with a national salute; Charles J. Faulkner, ex-Minister to France; Mayor Brown, of Baltimore ; the members of the Mary land Legislature ; Marshal Kane, of Baltimore ; Colonel Pec ram, taken prisoner in Western Vir ginia by General McClellan ; Commodore Bar ron, Uolonel Martin, and forty-two officers from Hatteras ; Colonel Tyler, of the rebel arm v. and a host of equally noted individuals. The North Carolina prisoners taken at Hatteras were divided into ten companie?, styled the W,ashington Greys, Leonore Guards, Tar River Boys, North Carolina Defenders, Roanoke Guards, Jones boro' Guards, Hertford Light Infantry, Independent Greys, Hamilton Guards and Guards. mu The prisoners were quiet, and obeyed all orders promptly. They marched into the fort and were assigned quarters three companies in the South ern front and one in a casemate .on the Northern side of the fort. The majority of the men were young, mere boys, who, in 6pite of their misfor tune, maintained a dehant and indifferent de meanour. Ex-Minister Faulkner wore a straw hat. and appeared decidedly 6eely, while Marshal Kane, wno wore a Ji.ossuth bat, turned un on one side. and strode about with a jaunty, careless air, as if he was selecting rooms at a hotel. The majority of tho officers seemed to view the whole affair as a business like proceeding, in which their only stake was the loss or gain of a comfortable habitation during the war. borne or them regard their stay at Fort Warren as only temporary, and expect to go still further North, tho rumour having reached them that the Government intend to send them to a fort nn Lake Erie. It is understood that no vessels, boats. &c. will be allowed to land at the fort without special per mission, under penalty of imprisonment of all parties on board. There will be no "visiting days" henceforth at the fort, except by persons having business, or are permitted by proper au thorities. PAULSEN'S BLINDFOLD CHESS PLAY IN ENGLAND. The arrival of Mr. Paulsen, tho American chess player, in London, has,already been noticed. Mr. Paulsen, it will be remembered,played against Paul Morpby at the chess tournament held in ten ODDonents simultaneously. Tho London Star has this account of his wonderful performances': a Mr. Paulsen offered to play, blind folded, ten of the befet players ef this country, and carry on the games simultaneously. Mr. Paulsen bad previously been victorious in a contest on the same terms with fifteen players, buj they were not lirst-class; and after his triumph he expressed a wish to be pitted against ten of the ablest players thatcou'd be produced. The match yesterday has excited great interest in chess circles - since the preliminaries were ar raged, and when it commenced there was a nu merous company in the room, which, it is need less to say, consisted chiefly of chess players. The following are the names of the ten gentlemen who were Mr. Paulsen's opponents,viz : I.Mr. Mack- enzie,amateur;2. Mr. Sabouroff.Russlau Embassy; 3. Mr. Maude, London Cbess Club; 4. Mr. How ard, 3t. James' Club; 5. Mr. Barnes, fcU George's Club; 6. Burden, amateur; 7. Mr. Campbell; 8. Mr. Robev; 9. Mr. Lamb, amateur; 10. Mr. Wor- mald, Hon. Secretary St. James' Club. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Paulsen as cended a platform in the centre of the room and seated himself in a chair. For the instruction of those who are uninitiated in chess matters, it may be stated that literally he was' not blindfolded that is to say, there was nb bandage round his eyes; but as bis back was towards the window, it was pnysicaiiy lmpossioio mm uo wuiu ew any thing on the boards of his opponents. He was 1 1 Z n. 1.1 . k A A L. 1 quite cool ana collected, ana appearea to contem plate the reuU without any misgivings. lie bad the first move in all tho games, and he announ ced king's pawn 2 and all round. The game pro ceeded "slowly, and it soon became apparent that although Paulsen had undertaken to combat ten opponents, he was really playing against the most of the gentlemen in the room, who were consult ing with his opponents as to the tactics by which he could be defeated. The match was entirely for honor. Mr. Paul sen", indeed, had a small bet in his own favor with Mr. Mackenzie, but otherwise tbeie was no bet tine. Now as to the result. At 5 o'clock Mr. Campbell was declared tne victor m nis game; at 10 o'clock Mr. Ssbouroff was equally fortunate, and at 10$ Mr. Mackenzie confessed himself bea ten and resigned. About half-past 12 Mr. Bo6y offered to draw, which Mr. Paulsen agreed to, although he had the best of the game, and about five minutes after the game with Mr. Barnes was also drawn. Shortly after I o'clock, Mr. Lamb's game was also, drawn. The remaining games were drawn. 'During the contest, which " lasted nearly 12 houis, Mr. Paulsen was out of his chair for abo it two minutes, and the only refreshment lie partook of was a glass of water. MEETING OF A CONFEDERATE AND FEDERAL GENERAL INTERVIEW BETWEEN GENERAL POLK AND GEN ERAL GRANT; A correspondent of the Memphis Appeal writes from Columbus, Ky., under date of the 14th in atant : On yesterday, the 13th instant, the elegant steamer Prince, Captain Butler, left our wharf, at ten o'clock P. M., and proceeded up the river to ward Cairo. On board were Generals Polk, Cheatham and McCown, with their respective staffs, Lieutenant-Colonel Til man, of the infantry, Captain Gray, of the artillery, and Captain Hay wood and Ballentine, of tbe cavalry. About mid way between Columbus and Cairo we met the steamer Alec Scott, having on board General Grant, Colonel Logan, Major Hatch, and other officers of the Lincoln army, together, with the venerable Judge Breese, late United States Sena tor from Illinois. The steamers, both bearing the white Hag, were lashed together in the middle of the stream, and a lengthy interview took place between Generals Polk and Grant. In the meantime the officers, both Federal and Confederate, mingled with each other, drank champagne together, told anecdotes and incident! of the law battle, complimenting each other upon the heroism and bravery displayed on both aides, and altogether had a most delightful time. The result of the conference between the Gene rals was that oar prisoners, about eighty or ninety in number were to be given ap to us in return for the one hundred and five wounded ' men that we had of theirs, leaving about ninety of their well men still ia our hands. f ' The ceremony over, the two hoats again sepa rated, amidst the waving of bats and handkerchiefs of the officers of the two armies, who, ( in all .pro bability, will again maoonio deadly oonflict Betides the officers, there ' were three ladies on each of the boats, who seemed to enjoy the scene vastly, xne wnoie parley was conducted on both sides in the most chlvalrio and high-toned style. HESSIAN AND NEGRO INVADERS. A late number of the Baltimore South contains the following statement of the manner! in which the "Grand Army' is now being filled up. Un naturalized Germans and negroeaare the hire lings by which the "glorious Union" is' to be forc ed down the throats of a free people I Nig rom jjstd Aliinsto Cxbrt oit thk War or Stjbjtjgatiow. On Sanday evening aregi. ment of unnaturalized Germans, many of them juu from the shores of Europe, passed through this city for Washington. r A friend who witnessed whe passage of this body , and who followed them to Camden Station, says there were not a dozen in the regiment 'who could speak, or understand the English language. A German was sent among them while delayed at the station to inquire where they were from, and how iney came to en list, tie was told that a large nam- YA Af thorn Vtarl a At kwn n VaV-l. 1 wvui wsHa uve wtwju tu XfJW A Ursv fa VfttE. anil I hvin hn nfFA .

They neither knewnorcared any thing about the nature ot the war ; they had en listed for the pay ! j We are informed that at an early; hour this morning there passed throgh our city regiment, a number of whom were negroes rough, uncouth, ignorant negroes marshalled into Lincoln's eervice for the subjugation of the South 1 Do the "un conditional Union men," the advocates ot Lin coln's Government, endorse this hiring ot Hes sians and negroes to war upon their brethren of the South? Will they still plead for a Union with such masters and such materials ? If such an exhibition as this will not arouse the slum bering patriotism and self-respect of the people, then are they only fit to be the slaves of the ty rants who are forging their chains and associates, of the negroes who are called upon to subdue them. .i . i , , - - LADIES' CURIOSITY GRATIPIED. The correspondent of the Charlotte Courier tells the following good one. Frequently the ladies are in the babit of visiting the prisoners, but oftener from curiosity than sympa thy. Another accident is told of an encounter be tween several of them and an Irishman : , "It had become a matter of habit with the fair ones to open conversation with the verjr natural inquiry, 'Where are you wounoed ?' and accor- yez. 'Where were your wounded V again fired away one of the ladies. 'Faith, I'm not badly hurt at all. I'il be traveling to Richmond is a wake,' replied Pat, with a peculiarly distressing look, as if he was In a tight place. Thinking that he was draf, one of the old ladies in the background put her mouth down to his ear and shouted again, 'We want to know where you are hurt?' Pat evidently finding that if the blockade con tinued much longer be would have to strike bis flag anyhow, concluded to so at once, and accord ingly, with a lace as red as a boiled lobster, and with an angry kind of energy, be replied : 'Sbure, ladies, its not deaf that I am, but since ye are de termined to know where I've been wounded, its on my sate. The bullet entered behind ov me breech es. Please to excuse me feelings, and ax me no more questions.'
