Sixty of the Penitentiary transports, hired to Mr. Bibb, lately at work on the Covington and Ohio Railroad, have been brought back within the last few days and lodged in the institution. Yesterday eighty of those hired to Rosser & Co. were expected to arrive in the city. These prisoners can be employed to great advantage in any works of defence proposed to be erected around and near this city.
