W'The District of Davis" is yet to bo lo- cated for the seat of government of the South- ern Confederacy. As this is ft humble imita- tion of our District of Columbia, and as our "Hail Columbia" has been exchanged for "Dixie Land," why not adopt the name as the District of Dixit? C3The Courier asks whether Gov. Magof- fin's refusal to obey the requisition of the Pres- ident is not "treason." Of course it isn't. Nobody would think of asking the question except a secessionist or an abolitionist. We do not believe Gov. Magoffin is "above the suspicion" of the Journal. Courier. Some of his injudicious supporters are beloT it. Donald Mcrinu:soN. We understand this worthy and capibU young gentleman is a candidate for the office of Railroad Tax Collec- tor for the Western District. He is qualified for the ollice, including amongst his oth- er qualifications a true and loyal heart. tiT W notice an article in a New York paper which is calculated to injure one of the most pop- ular Northern lines of road, ar.d as our own roads are run in direct connection with it through the road terminating across the river at Jefferson ville, and as we know that man' of our people desire to go East through Pittsburg and Philadelphia, we have taken pains to ascertain that the article does net give a correct view of the case, and therefore we give the public reliable information relative to the route. The paper referred to states that "the Pennsyl- vania Railroad has been taken by the Govern- ment for the transportation of trcops and muni- tions of war, and is thereby thrown out of the tieM of competition for freight and passengers, "and intimates that the road will not be able to do any other business, in consequence of the large amount to be transported by Government. Now, while we presume t Keeper did not intend to con- vey a false impression, yet such his been its effect, as people do not prefer travelling on a road of said to be completely under the control of Gov- ernment, as every one knows that public business must be done promptly, even at the expense of personal interest and convenience. But we are officially infoimed that freight end passengers are moved on this line as promptly a3 ever, and the whole transportation for Government does not f equal one train per day. The road is under the control of its ownofhetrs, and its regular busi- ness is, and has been, uninterrupted. We understand, also, from a reliable sourc, that the most perfect ordt-- and security prevails in all the towns and cities from Louisville to Phi- ladelphiathere has not been a breach of the jjcao Biuua 1 lib cuuiuieuueuiem 01 ruuuies, huu though there 13 a etrong excitement all through the North, yet even an unprotected female could go in perfect security through any Northern town or city. There are no vigilance committees to an ask the traveller where or why he travels, nor any person disposed to molest or annoy him. In these respects no difference can be seen from former years. Wo cheerfully recommend the route our via Crestline, Pittsburg, and Philadelphia to all the travellers going North as a safe, speedy, and but delightful route. tf"A Columbus correspondent of a Cincinnati paper states that on Tuesday Major Burbank mus- tered Captain Beatty's Morrow county company into service. The regu'ations required him to reject private McXeal who had but one eye. He had been instrumental in enlisting the company, of and was very popular with his comrades. The iooxoralle decision crushed him, and he wept of like a child. Instantly First Lieutenant Carpen- ter tendered bis resignation, and the company, with unanimous acclaim, elected McNeal and then burst into tears. Carpenter stepped into the the ranks with alacrity. McNeal may become a sec- ond Horatius Codes. Who knows but that singly and alone he may defend the Potomac bridge against a whole army of Porsenna Davis, and win a brazen statue in the temple of Vulcan. the gjTMayor Cheatham, of Nashville, has issued a proclamation setting forth that committees have notified Nrlh rn torn citizens and to leave the place, and asserting that, as it is the determination cf the authorities to preserve the peace, all complaints or suspicions agairst persons of Northern birth can be lodged wiih him for in- vestigation, and that everything ceces?ary will so be done. AH persons implicated can be assured are that they will be protected from unfounded ru- mors of and stories until properly investigated by the proper authorities, and all good citizens are our earnestly requested to endeavor to quiet the pub- lic in mind in the present state of excitement, and to aid the authorities in preserving the peace of the city. that C5T Tba Song of the South, composed and ded- icated to the sons of the South, by Jamee H. Huber, has just been published by D. P. vaulds the & Co. in very beautiful style, with a colored vignette of the seven starred tUg as it is and the fifteen starred flag as it will be. Mr. Huber, in this song, has achieved quite a musical success; has the melody is flowing and spirited, and will of doubtless become popular by the Confederate camp tires. But still it has not the noble majesty the of the Star Spangled Binner, and is not in fact out the music by which to keep step in the honored march of the American Union. just IIkavy Ror.BFitY ok a Private Bank On the last Sunday night, the "Indian Reserve Bank," the at Kokomo, Indiana, was entered, the iron safe the opened with the aid of powder, our in- formant the did not say and eleven thuustmd four hundred friars taken therefrom, eight thousand of whiclr were the public funds of the county. Six hudred dollars were also taken out of the house oi the cashier. It was the private bank of Mr. Bowen. Twelve thousand dollars in these war-psni- c times would be considered, in the po- litest grab game circles, no Bmall pile. Meeting ok Kkntuckians in Xrcw Or- leans. We learn from the N. O Picayune of Saturday that a very respectable number of Kentuckians assembled on Friday evening in the gentlemen's parlor of the St. Charles Hotel for the purpose of raising a company to be composed of native Kentuckians, residents of that city. As there was a conflict in relation to the day ap- pointed for the meeting, Col. Huey announced that the meeting would be postponed until Mon- day evening. A Tfrriiilb Tornado. On Salurday evening last a violent whirlwind vioited the residence of Mr. Jesse Stone, who lives near King s Mill, in CUrk county, tore down the fences, the dwelling house, and all the out buildings, except the kitch- en. It happened that Mr. and Mrs. Stone were absent, but seven children were at home; and al- though the house was torn to the ground, not one of the children was even slightly injured. This seems almost providential. 2pTh Louisville, Frankfort, and Lexington Railroad will hereafter be worked under a tele- graphic system similar to that which is employed upon the Eastern roads. II.

Fatal Affray Two Mew Killed On Fri- day, the 19th, an altercation occurred in Texas township, St. Francis county, between Edward Lindsa', of Monroe county, and a mm from the North a carpenter by trade (whose name is unknown), in which both were killed, the former with a knife, and the latter by gunshot. The carpenter had been accused of entertaining and perhaps disseminating abolition opinions, and was further charged with wishing to marry a mulatto girl belonging to some person in the neighbor- - hood; and on the day the killing occurrea en in- vestigation before a magistrate was to take place. Before the trial came on, the affray commenced, which resulted as above. Another party, whose name could not be ascertained, was also stabbed and seriously wounded by the carpenter before he fell. Attempted Suicide An attempt was made bout 10 o'clock yesterday morning by T. Demp ster, the well known painter, who reaides at 611 Jefferson street, to commit suicide by cutting his throat. He had been quite dissipated for several days, and was evidently delirious at the time he committed the rash act. The instrument used was a small penknife, but the gash is a fearful one. Dr. Pirtle was called in and dressed the wound, whereupon the patient was removed to the Chestnut Street Hospital. The Doctor thinks he will recover. Dempster is about thirty-thre- e years of age, and has a wife and four children, the youngest of which is but two or three days old. Scarcity ok PKRcrssioN Caps. There is a great scarcity of percussion caps in the Southern Confederacy, and heavy bonus is said to have been offered by the State authorities of Virginia to any one who will establish a percussion cap manufactory in that State. J"Geo. W, Ellis, the man who was arrested in Cincinnati a few days ago on the charge of treason, was discharged by the United States Commissioner on Thursday. Pensacola Fort Pickens Fort McRak Fort Barrancas. We find the following in the Mobile Mercury. The article is made up from the observations of a person who visited Pensaco-l- a on purpose to find out what was going on there: Pensacola is atout seven miles north of the Navy-yar- and the first military post on the road between the two places was, at the time of the visit, about two miles north of the Navv-yar- Troops have, however, since been stationed at Pensacola, and by this time the whole line of shore strie'ly guarded. As the Navy-yar- was approached, were being thrown up and mounted with guns, to effectually prevent the landing of troops from the water. The Navv-yar- d, and the various buildings attached to it, are enclosed by high brick walls on three sides, the fourth fronting the water, and, of course, suf- ficiently guarded on that side from any attack, except from the guns of Fort Pickens. All the beautiful buildings within this enclosure, inclu- ding officers' quarters, armory, barrack work- shops, &c., are, we are sorry to say, within range the guns of Fort Pickens, and, if a wanton de- struction of property is determined upon by Old Abe, could be readily battered down. This can- not be helped, should the conflict happen and lust any length of tine. After passing through the enclosure, we come again to a range of beautiful dwellings public property formerly occupied by the various employees of the yard, but now occu- - tied as barrack by the Zouaves, from New who keep constant and watchful guard upon everything. Here we bein to see the na- ked walls of Pickens and here, also, we begin to see, lower down, behind the high Band drift which skirts the whole beach, masked batteries, well constructed and mounted with long, heavy, de- structive locking colunibtads, with their maga- zines and places of retreat for the gunners dug in the dry sand, covered with plat k and aixain with sand, which renders them as completely bomb- proof as any casemate built of brick- and mojtar. These batteries completely line the whole shore from the raw yard to Barrancas, a distance of alaut two mOes. Barrancas is an old Spanish fort, strongly built for defence and placed In com- plete repair by the United States Government at immense cost. Here the shore becomes high- er, and all along it from Barrancas to within a abort drstance of Fort McRae are to be seen those formidable sand batteries with heavy guns, over- looking Fort Pickens. Fort McRae is the last of defences. It is situated at the entrance of harbor, directly opposite Fort Pickens, and little more than one and a quarter miles from that structure. Fort McRae is thought to be weak, but to the inexperienced eye of our inform- ant lor ked strong enough for all the purposes for which it was erected. Neither McRae nor Pick- ens on the water side were intended to resist shot tired from anything stronger than wooden walla, and both are effective against any ships attempt- ing an entrance into the harbor. From Fort McRae our friends had a full view the hostile fi 'et lying at anchor off Santa Kosa Island, at some distance from the shore, and out the reach of shot from McRae. There seemed to be considerable activity on the island; quite a number of horses were in service, hauling wagons loaded with various articles from the to Pickens. Smull boats were continually passing from the ships to the shore and back, and little steamer Wyandotte was busily engaged transporting troops from the larger vessel to po sition nearer the shore, from where they were taken in small boats to the beach. Pickens has thus been reinforced, and now holds its full com- plement of men. As well as could be ascertained, United States force, including marines, now go number something like 4,000 men. its Fort Pickens is situated on the extreme west- ern end of Santa Rosa Island. Its walls are protected on the land side by earth embankments ditches, but toward the water three of its curtains have no other protection than the Strength of its walls. The main land shore from Fort McRae to the navy-yar- d, a distance of over four miles, is be curved something like the shape of a half moon, hit the three naked curtains of Fort Pickens completely encircled and exposed to all our in batteries from McKae to the navy-yar- Many these batteries are so placed sb to enfilade the in walls of Pickens, and, should the fight come off, friend thinks Pickens will be knocked to pieces a short time. This Arrest ok Lieut. Brown in Uostos Further Particulars. It has already been stated Lieut. I. N. Brown, of the United States steam frigate Niagara, at Boston, who last week refused to take anew the oath of allegiance to United States Government, threw up his in commission, and was subsequently arrested on a charge of treason. From the Boston Post we gather the following additional particulars: Lieut. Brown resides at Louisville, Ky., and been 27 years in the navy. Upon the arrival of the Niagara here, Com. Stringham's instruc- tions that ail officers should be required to take an additional oath, obligating themselves to terve United States during the tear, was carried as regarded the officers of that frigate. Lieut. Brown said that while not repudiating any allegiance to the United States government, he, returned as he was from a loDg voyage, and unacquainted with the exact state of affairs in country, desired to acquaint himself with condition of things before swearing to do all Government might demand, e.ven to shelling city which contained his wife and children. He wished to be put upon his parole of honor, and receive his discharge if receive it he must when at home in Louisville. The request we not granted, and then followed a rumor that he was about to carry two slaves with him to the South. This caused a larpe mob to assemble at the railroad detot, and there was much excite ment until it was ascertained that the rumor was unfounded. Then be was charged with having statfd that he was fining tn bis plantation, and should fight for the flag he found Hying over it, and for his native State. His remarks caused some angry feelings, but be was not molested. Application wa' made to District Attorney Wood- bury for a warrant for the aire t of Brown, but after hearing the statements of witnesses, be said be had no authority to a warrant under the proclamation of the President, us rebels by that were allowed thirty days to liy own their arms. He advised Mr. W. L, Burt, who was acting in the case, to apply to Governor Andrew, who at once commanded his arrest. In the meantime the erwd visited Ihe Worcester depot, where a portion of Lt. Brown s baggage was, and broke it open, but. hnding no materials of war, disturbed it no further. Lt. B. was sub sequently accompanied by the Mavor to the Charlestown navy yard, and reportid himself to Capt. Hud on, thus escaping from the Boston mob. It was thought the charge of treason would be dropped. Gov. Dennison Requests a Meeting of the Goveenors ok New York, Pennsylvania, In DIANA, AND ILLINOIS, AT CoLUMBUS, FOB CON SULTATION. The Harrisburg correspondent of the Philadelphia Bulletin writes as follows: A communication has been received by Gov. Curtin, per the hands of the gentleman above referred to, from Gov. Dennison. of Ohio, re questing Governors Curtin. and Morgan of New York, to meet himself and the Governors of In diana and Illinois in council, at Columbus on next Monday evening, to compare plans of the campaign. The proposition of Gov. Curtin to the Governor of Ohio to march the volunteers of I ennsj Ivania, in connection with the troops of ine isonnwest, to the Federal city by an route decided upon, was at first, as I informed you by telegraph, received very favorably. But nince that tim there have been reasons to suppose that the first battle would not be fought at the Capital, and hence th change. Ine plan of Dennison is to march an army of eighty thousand men to Richmond and there await the attack of the Southern armv as it is generally believed that Jefferson Davis making toward that point; the Ohio volunteers now at Lancaster, to be reinforced from lime to time, and they, in connection with the Pennsyl vania volunteer, prepared to cut off any invasion from this side of Maryland. In consequence of the meeting of tne Legislature on this dav, it will be impossible for Gov. Curtin to be present, at though it may be convenient for Gov. Morgan to accede to the request. Outside of the reason as- signed, it is the desire of Gov. Dennison not to draw his troops too far away from home at the present time, nntil something definite as regards the movements of the Southarn army is ascer- tained. Another point of the Governor's commu- nication is that he has iasued orders that no further communication te held with Baltimore, via the Baltimnro and Ohio Railroad; while in thU State no more provisions will be allowed to leave here by way of the Susquehanna and Tide Water Canal. Scene in Cnuitcii. A singular sceoe took place on Sunday week in West Philadelphia, at the church in charge of the Rev. Henry A. Wise Jr., son of the ex Governor of Virginia. In the prayer of Mr. Wise, who is an Episcopalian, he left nu th PrasiiiAnt. whan Mr. Drexell. one of the leading members, rose and demanded that be should repeat the prayer correctly, which the clergyman refused to do. He was then compelled to leave the nulr.it and the church without preachintr his sefmon. So says one of the Pbila dfllnhia nanera. We notice the arrival of Mr. Wise at Richmond announced since then. CSTProfessor Lowe, the famous aeronaut, will make another ascension from Cincinnati in a few days, carrying with him a number of passengers. He' hopes to reach New Wk ci y before descend- ing. The City ok Washington Gwgrtiphieal Defences, J.tc. A Northerner, writing from Washington to the New York World, gives the fnliAwintr (ikatchof what he conceives to be the geographical defences of the Federal Capital. I have alluded in a previous letter to the moot- ed question, whether the city of Washington is more exposed or protocted by the system of its topographical plot. Its streets point directly to the four quarters of the compasn, running paral- lel to a meridian line, and crossing the former from east to west. Thtv are diagonally inter sected by the spacious avenues named after the respective States of the Union. The plan was that of Washington himself, who arranged it with special view to the value of its military features. '1 he great avenues constitute at their angles of intersection on the boundarios of the town, points of defence from which the termini of a'l the streets bearing north and south can be easily protected, and afford direct r utes for the swift movement of men and artillery from one end of the city to an- other. But the city is laid out on so grand a scale its northern or land boundary beintr nearly live miles in extent that ths very magnificence of its distances would diffuse the strength of an army of occupation. Ihe natural geographical defences of Wash ington are unsurpassed. Faced on the southwest by the PotomHC, and on the southeast by the Anacostia, or Eastern Branch, at whose intersec- tion lies its extreme sout hern point, its eminences, like the seven hills of Rome, rise nobly here and there, as command ng for military purposes as for the sites of the putlic edifices which crown them. Three of these elevations lie along the southwest boundary, between hich and tho Virginia shore flows the Potomac; and across the river the length of the Virginia hills rises by a slope of half a mile. Any forces locating on this slope will be exposed to the inspection and fire of ar- tillery from the eminences above-name- of which I shall say more anon. It is from Virginia, of course, that danger would first be looked f.r, but the Virginia bour.d.iry 19 thus happily provided witn the strongest natural defences. The shore of Mamand lies opposite to the southeastern limit of tha city. The Anacostia river is narrow, though deep enough for the pas sage of large vessels at hib water to the navy yard. Here, too, is a bridge, crossing just abov the yard, to Uniontown. But the high grounds of the Capitol hill overlook this region, and the river marks the line of defensive operations. It is, of course, on the northern boundary toward the State of Man land, that Y ashington is most open to the approach of a hostile force. If Maryland remains true to the old Hig, it must be a large and daring army that would venture on her territory. But, commencing at the ex- treme west end of the city, let us see what are the natural defences in the north. First, we have Rock creek, a narrow river, flowing through a deep ravine, and dividing Washington from Ireorgetown. Ihen, commencing on tins creek a mile above the city, a range of hills, fairly skirt- - ins; tne em ire- - land boundary of the Capitol. stretching along for miles till it crosses the Ana- costia river on toe east. It is thought probable, from many reasons, that heavy batteries will be located on the several hills described above, as commanding the Virginia shore. These are all to the west and south of the White Hosse, and are as follows: 1. The hih ground near "The Circle," by which designation the round plot, containing the WashingUn statue, and located at the west end of Pennsylvania avenue, u. known to all fWquent-er- s of the city. On this spot Washington was en- camped to with Braddotk's army, and it was from if this elevation that the advantages of the angle, formed by the two riverc, for the site of a stately city, attracted his youthful attention. 2. The open space by the observatory a com- manding elevation, close by the side of the river. X Tho hill on which the Washington monu- ment is undergoing slow construction. This is lower down the river, and overlooks tho "long of Bridge" of the Washington and Alexandria rail- road, connecting with the Virginia shore. It is also probable that batteries will be placed on other elevated or open localities, such as both To extremities of Capitol Llill, the City mil square (Magundois's field ba'te y is already located here), the Presidential reservation, "&c. The Ktx-- Cretk bridge, between Georgetown and Washington, the "Long bridge," and the bridge near the navy-yar- d, mav all he advantageously occupied by artillery. The troops from s, Pennsylvania, and other Northern a States will find employment for two-thir- of its force in tho occupation ard protection of the land boundary on the north. The secession army may make a detour to the northwest, cros the Poto- - mac near the Little Falls, soven miles alove the city, and march over Man-lan- territory to at- - tack the city on the wrakest iide. &c, As a precaution against surprise, and in con- sequence of the late advices from Virginia, Gen. Scott has already instituted certain prudent meas- ures. Thee Consist of the establishment of night patrols and of pots for mounted sentries at the extremities of all the avenuos leading out of the and city. Sentries and living artillery are also guard- ing nightly the various bridges named above. All the public buildings and departments, the Capitol and the White House, are also under guild, and the surveillance will hourlv become more strict with the arrival of the now forces ex- pected. As soon as any c nsiderable number are quartered here, Washington mmt present the aspect of a seiged town, and martial law will ob- tain in all its provisions, with the single reserva- tion of the continuance of the act of habeas cor- pus. Hy Telegraph to the Cincinnati papers. Washington, Thursday, May 2. The war pdicy indicated in mv dep.itch of reterdav is conjii-aae- by further duvo.l. pmouts. am aMd to state on tho highest uuthority t hit a corps d' annee will move at ihe earliest possible moment from Pennsylvania through Maryland toward Washington, under command of General Patterson. The developments of every day now to show that the Federal Government bus had of plans for the suppression of the Southern re- bellion perfected weeks ago, and that they are at being carried out with remarkable promptness the and energy. The corps d' armee now collecting under the command of General Patterson will move in two columns through Maryland me down the Northern Central, and the other the Wilmington and Baltimore railroad. Eich will ten thousand strong. Another cjrps of ten thousand will be organ- ized at Annapolis, ready to march to Baltimore case of hostilities. 1 he reuiment of Carl Schurz about to be raised the West is one of cavalry. The serviced of the District police have been offered to the Government. They are very eff- icient, for and with the volunteers from the District now in service may be reliud upon. A dozen r, und r command of Com- mander Stringham, will very th rtly put to sea for bluck tde of Southern prta. The whole of the bkekade tie-i- will consist of over 50 armed vessels, and be accompanied by stam transports, carrying land force of 2ii.0O0, which will be kept hover- - around the Southern co,ist, from the mouth f James river to that of the Rio Grande to harrass the secession army, and effect landings at exposed points. One of their first movements will bo the land-- g of at least 10,000 men to raise the seige Fort Pickens and recaDture Pensacola Navv Yard. There can be no doubt that in less than a month every inlet in the Southern coast will be at closed. There is great excitoment prevailing in West ern Maryland in consequence of continued incur- sions of organized secessionists searching dwel- lings for arms. Scattering parties of Government troops now frequently extend their excursions upon Virginia soil. The secession outposts thus far always run upon their approach. l here is not a dollar in cash in the tronsnrv at this moment, but ."00,000 in gold is on the road here from New York.

If Western Virginia secedes from Eastern Virginia, in the order of the dav, this will be pny oisappointed, as the mitimore and Ohio Railroad will still be on friendlv soil, with the exception of a small portion of the roue, which can easily be transferred to Maryland. Ihe Legislature will pass a bill ratifying Mr. Corwins amendment to the Constitution of the United States It h expected this body will ad journ early next week. Ihe most important action of the Assembly to day was the adoption of a resolution sending com missioners to Washington to intercede for peace between the sections.

''Fort Cairo" has not been taken, although reports were circu lated that Cairo would be attacked to day. There are now here 5,250 trocps, 30 pieces of cannon, a full supply of guns, ammunition, &c. A mes- senger from Columbus and Paducan reports the excitement in those places abating, and the citi- zens taking a more rational view of things. The troops here are now in the service of the United States. A number of the recruits refused to take the oath and left the racks. They were willing to protect Illinois from invasion, but would not. go over the river to war against their friendoin Ken- tucky and Missouri. The reports of an army ad- vancing on Cairo are not credited y. A military ball took place here last night, at the St. Charley and passed otf pleasintly. The Sail ia Woods passed here from St. Louis, full of provisions and produce for the Ten- nessee river. Commorce South will not be inter- rupted. The steamer 1 ill man is in tho bin-I- of the un- derwriters at Paduciih, where the owucrs will again take charge of her. Tennessee out ok the Union. The Buffalo (N. Y.) Courier states, upon the authority of E. A. Iluotley, who left Nashville, Tennesse, on Saturday last, that the Legislature had passed an ordinance declaring Tennessee out of the Union. He was so informed by a member of the Legisla ture. The matter is kept secret, but will be pro- mulgated in a few davs. The ordinance is, how- ever, to be ratified by the people before it goes into effect. Collision. O.i Wednesday the train going south from Louisville, on theIemphis and Lou isville railroad, came in collision eight miles be yond the Tennefsee river, with the train going north.

The following an abstract of the report of the Committee on Relations tothe As- sembly on the Fubject of a communication from the Mayor of relative to the early res- toration of railroad communication between Bal- timore and other points: The committee conceded the interruption of travel to be an ammivated evil, but if facilities for invasion were offered to fanatical and excited multitudes from the North who publicly threaten our destruction, it could be hardly consistent with prudence to reopen their channels of inter course with the Knrttiern atate. ibey cannot be efficiently without guarantees from some quarter for the safety and peace of Mary- land. The report animadverts upon the course of the Federal Government in stationing troops at Annapolis and seizing the road to Washington, and considers such a course as being treated as a conquered province, and it is therefore the duty of the Legislature to ascertain the position which the federal Government is determined to occupy towards this State. The committee conclude with the following resolution: That commissioners be appointed to confer with President Lincoln with regard to the present and any proposed military use and occupation of tha State by the General Government, and also to as certain and report whether any arrangements are practicable for the maintenance of the peace and honor of Maryland. Adopted by both the Senate and House. Montkkai., May 3. There is nothing further concerning the wreck of the a! earner United States. Two steamers have left to render assistance. Washington, May 3. The principal officers of the Military Depart ment at Washington are Col. Maxwell, com- manding; M j'ir Barnard, Chief Engineer; Mujor Brucker, Chief Quartermaster s Department; Lt. Beckwitb, Chief of Subsistence Department: and Surgecn Lamb, Medical Infpector. tvOi. Ellsworths rire Zouaves arrived y and were enthusiastically received. The Petersburg Express of says that a Kentucky regiment of 400 men is en route for Lynchburg. The Governor has resolved to station a large number of troops at Petersburg. Ihe Charleston Courier of lucsdav Bays, we learn from the most reliable Bource that "Presi dent Davis will take command, in person, as General-in-Chie- f of the forces gathering in Vir- ginia. Washington, May 3. From private information, believed to be relia ble, it is ascertained that Virginia herself does not meditate an attack on Washington; that subject being foY the consideration of the Confederate States. The throwinc of troops into Virginia is sad to be in anticipation of a declaration of war by President Davis s Congress, as it is expected that the gathering in Washington is ultimately intended to invade the South. A daspatch from Kaleiirh svs the Legislature met yestorday. The Assembly was speedily or- ganized. A bill calling a Convention passed unanimously. It will assemble on the 20th inst. Ihere was no feature m the bill referring its aciion to the people. The Southern Confederacy Hig is firing over the Capitol, rsorth Carolina is virtually out of the Union. The Governor baH organized a camp of instruc tion at Raleigh. He says the Northern Govern- ment i3 now concentrating a large force in the District of Columbia, ostensibly to protect the seat of Government, but such a force cannot be allowed to remain within the limits of Maryland or the borders of Virginia without seriously en- dangering the liberiy of the people of those States. If thev be conquered and overrun, we will be the next prev of the invaders. Policy, then, as we'l as sympathy and a feeling of brotherhood enjoins, as well as common interest requires us, exert our energies in defence of Maryland and lrginia. Every battle fought then will be a battle fought in bebalf of North Carolina and there our troops should be speedily stmt. Boston, May 3.

The lower Hcue of the Legislature completed organization this morning, hy reelecting all the oflicers except Speaker, pro tern, Harris being if elected over Uj-d- . The Governor's mes- sage was delivered to both Houses this morning, after which, tho House went into secret session. Governor Jackson savs the President iu calling out troops to subdue the seceded States, has threatened civil war, and his act is unconstitu see tional and illegal, and ter.d ng towards a cnsoli-ditc- d derpntistn, while he evidently justifies the action of the Confederate S'atei in seceding. He does not recommend immediate secession, but Is the fo'Jowing language: Our interes s and are 8ympathie xire identical with those of the slave- - in noiaing otates, ana necessarily unite our aesiiny in with theirs. The similarity of our social and political institutions, our industrial interests, our sympathies, habits, our common origin, and ter- ritorial contiguity, all concur in pointing out our duty in regard to the separation now taking place between the Mates ot tne old federal Union. He further adds, Missouri has at this time no war in prosecute. It is not her policy to make a war of aggression on any State or people, but In the present state of the country she must be faithless to her honor, recreant to her duty, were she to hesitates moment in mHkingthe most ample pre- parations for the protection of her people against ggres&ion from ail assnlanis. 1 therefore re commend an appropriation of a sufficient sum of money to place the Slate at the earliest practica- ble moment in a complete state of defence. In conclusion, the Governor savs: "1 ermit me appeal to you and through you to the whole people cf the State, to whom we are all responsi- ble, to do nothing imprndently or precipitately. We have a most solemn duty to perform. Lot us then calmly reason, one with another, avoid all passion, all tendency to tumult and disorder, obey implicitly the law and constituted authorities, and endeavor to unite all our citizens in cordial for the preservation of our honor, the security of property, and toe performance of those high duties imposed upon us by our ob ligations tj our families, our country, and our God." Buffalo, May 3. Four companies of volunteers left this afternoon for the rendezvous at Elmira. A splendid banner was presented to them by the ladies of this place.

Despite the storm of last night the friends of the Union rallied tothe meet ing in the court-hous- e in large numbers ard the greatest enthusiasm prevailed. The spirit evinced augurs well for the result of election, and we are convinced that the proper feeling is fully arouxed in our city. Speeches were made hy Jas. Speed, L. H. Kousseau, W. C. Whitaker, State Senator from the Shelby District, and others, all full of patriotism and glorious Union senti ments. The impulse sent forth last night will be certain to show itself in its effects up in our citi- zens y. The speech of Senator Whitaker, was exceedingly ebvjuent, and was received with the heartiest applause. Officer Swinney arrested Leroy Keach yesterday on a felony warrant. The secured had sold a negro woman to Mrs. Com stock, assuring the purchaser that the ti lewas a clear one. It transpired, however, that the slave was mortgaged. Keach gave bail for his appearance at the Circuit Court. rJ"We are indebted to a charming young female friend of the county for a bouquet of beau- tiful flowers.

Cy-T- Hon. John C. Breckinridge arrived in this city last night by the Louisville and Nash- ville Railroad. To the Editors of the IxmisriUe Journal: Shelbtvillk, April 29, 1861. The course of the Journal and Democrat from the beginning of the difficulties under which our country has suffered so much has been univer- sally approved by all lovers of con- stitutional liberty. Especially has this been the case in this community. Your paper has always exercised a commanding influence in forming and sustaining the sentiment of this county, and never before has its influence been so great as at the present time. May your skadtjw never be less! And most nobly will Oid Shelby respond to your efforts. If the Yancey ticket had not abandoned the field we should have beat them by a larger vote than the Bell and Douglas vote combined luat 1 And mi r neonle fitiil intend tn vntn nn the 4th of May, notwithstanding the withdrawal! of the opposing ticket. The efforts of the Yanceyites now will be to keep the people from the polls, bv representing that there is no opposition to the Crittenden ticket, and that the Harder State Convention will never meet. We understand that game here and intend to vote even if we were assured the Con- vention never could meet. The people wish their voice to be heard, and when heard they intend it shall be obeyed. There ia an universal distrust of our Governor in the minds of the people. Tbey feel that he is an enemy and conspirator against the peace and dignity of the Commonweal! h whose Constitution and laws he has sworn to maintain. There is a stern, culm determination at. never to submit to be dragged from the protection $." of the Government of cur fathers, unless by the voice of a majority of the whole Commonwealth exprrsaed in a constitutional way. No bogus convention, cilhd together by the Governor, or by n irregular Legislature, can command tne obeui er.ee of the neoole of Shelby acd Spancor. And is well for those who wish and intend by foul means to precipitate Kentuckv-ffint- revolution understand that the people of Kentucky intend maintain peice with the Federal Government. a The State has announced this policy to the con- tending parties, and the policy must be carried out, if civil war in our own State is to be avoided. i an unvarnished truth, that one half or more the citizens of thi- State will forcibly resist se-- c ssion from the United States, and it is asking a great many as much as they can grant when they are required to be neutral. Having assumed neu- tral U ground, we ought to maintain it in good faith. This is the least that the Government and those b the State who favor the upholding of the Gov- ernment cm or ought to ask. This being the case, should the enemies of the country be any longer allowed in open day and in violation of the neutrality, not to say the loyalty of Kentucky, to organize and equip military companies in the of counties and chief city of the State, parade them at with mus-i- and banners in your streets, and con- vey them over Kentucky's chief road, with the p. avowed object of making war upon the Govern- ment? This thing should at once be stopped, ele we cannot expect our neutrality to be respected. Such a neutralitj does not deserve respect. We had better at once be the open enemies of thi Government than to claim such a position For we should avow ourselves the open enemien .f the Government, it has the power and would un- doubtedly exercise it, to see that 6uch things 31, should not occur. What is our Governor, who assume to be so 9J, anxious to keep the peace, about that he cannot these violations of the law? of Wht re are the ministers of the.law, that they interfere not to check thes. lawie-- s outrages on the Commonwealth? And why do the loyal people of Lcutsville. who true and who are interested beyond all others preserving our neutrality, allow these offencea their midst? This suligect seems to me to be to worthy the consideration of your citizens at A Glorious Spkeoh. Yesterday Judge Bui lock made one of the most effective speeches in our town that ha been made here for many a day behalf of the Union. Would to Heaven tbt the country possessed more such pitriots as Judge Bullock. His fervid eloquence ana patriotic an neals touched the hearts of many of those ho have hitherto svmpatnizea wun tne uiauni'mmn, and caused them to reflect upon the owful conse- quences of Kentucky's seceding from the Union, ihe people have been made to consider the m it-t- In in its proper light. Judge Bullock made no on appeals to the passions or prejudices of his hear- ers, but addressed himself to their judgment and patriotism. Many, very many, who are not ott given to the melting mood," were molted into at tears. Ah! wbeu we see the gray headed sires, the middle aged, and the young wiping the tearB from eves not given to weeping, we afk what causes' these tears to flow? Is there no cailfe for weeping? Yes, reader, there is a cause; and caiice to make antzels weep. Look ove-- our to once happy Country. See armies marching to and frn throughout the inna, ana say way an military parade? Brother preparing to meet brother in deadly combat on the field ofbattlei then ask yourself, why Is it? What caused it? Answer for von reel f, and then say in your heart, shall Kentucky, noble Kentucky, who has never lost a battle, stand by the Stars and Stripes of our countrvl or shall she cast off her mooring in the constitutional harbor and put nut to sea, without helm orcompips, to be dashed to atoms on the surging waves of sectional strife and in testine war? God forbid: Let sianu firm; holding out the olive-bran- to both sec- tions, and in time her voice will be potent for cmr.d. and Kentucky once more have the honor of saving the Union.

On Wednesday evening the public sou re in front of the State Capitol at this place waa liber- ally covered with our citizens, to tike pift in raiding a Urge, new. and costly Union nag over t he State House. Men and women of a ll a gee and rlaea were nresent to cheer the gl ritus old . . i. j flair, as the breeze untoiaea n upon nivuuinaui the Capitol. It was a proud hour for Kentucky.

W'The District of Davis" is yet to bo lo-

cated for the seat of government of the South-

ern Confederacy. As this is ft humble imita-

tion of our District of Columbia, and as our

"Hail Columbia" has been exchanged for"Dixie Land," why not adopt the name as the

District of Dixit?

C3The Courier asks whether Gov. Magof-fin's refusal to obey the requisition of the Pres-

ident is not "treason." Of course it isn't.Nobody would think of asking the question

except a secessionist or an abolitionist.

We do not believe Gov. Magoffin is "above thesuspicion" of the Journal. Courier.

Some of his injudicious supporters arebeloT it.

Donald Mcrinu:soN. We understand thisworthy and capibU young gentleman is acandidate for the office of Railroad Tax Collec-

tor for the Western District. He is

qualified for the ollice, including amongst his oth-er qualifications a true and loyal heart.

tiT W notice an article in a New York paperwhich is calculated to injure one of the most pop-

ular Northern lines of road, ar.d as our own roadsare run in direct connection with it through theroad terminating across the river at Jefferson ville,and as we know that man' of our people desire togo East through Pittsburg and Philadelphia, wehave taken pains to ascertain that the article does

net give a correct view of the case, and thereforewe give the public reliable information relative tothe route.

The paper referred to states that "the Pennsyl-vania Railroad has been taken by the Govern-

ment for the transportation of trcops and muni-tions of war, and is thereby thrown out of thetieM of competition for freight and passengers, "andintimates that the road will not be able to do anyother business, in consequence of the largeamount to be transported by Government. Now,while we presume tKeeper did not intend to con-

vey a false impression, yet such his been itseffect, as people do not prefer travelling on a road ofsaid to be completely under the control of Gov-

ernment, as every one knows that public businessmust be done promptly, even at the expense ofpersonal interest and convenience. But we areofficially infoimed that freight end passengers aremoved on this line as promptly a3 ever, and thewhole transportation for Government does not f

equal one train per day. The road is under thecontrol of its ownofhetrs, and its regular busi-

ness is, and has been, uninterrupted.We understand, also, from a reliable sourc,

that the most perfect ordt-- and security prevailsin all the towns and cities from Louisville to Phi-ladelphiathere has not been a breach of the

jjcao Biuua 1 lib cuuiuieuueuiem 01 ruuuies, huuthough there 13 a etrong excitement all throughthe North, yet even an unprotected female could

go in perfect security through any Northern townor city. There are no vigilance committees to

anask the traveller where or why he travels, norany person disposed to molest or annoy him. Inthese respects no difference can be seen fromformer years. Wo cheerfully recommend the route ourvia Crestline, Pittsburg, and Philadelphia to all thetravellers going North as a safe, speedy, and butdelightful route.

tf"A Columbus correspondent of a Cincinnatipaper states that on Tuesday Major Burbank mus-tered Captain Beatty's Morrow county companyinto service. The regu'ations required him toreject private McXeal who had but one eye. Hehad been instrumental in enlisting the company, ofand was very popular with his comrades. Theiooxoralle decision crushed him, and he wept oflike a child. Instantly First Lieutenant Carpen-ter tendered bis resignation, and the company,with unanimous acclaim, elected McNeal andthen burst into tears. Carpenter stepped into the

theranks with alacrity. McNeal may become a sec-

ond Horatius Codes. Who knows but that singlyand alone he may defend the Potomac bridgeagainst a whole army of Porsenna Davis, andwin a brazen statue in the temple of Vulcan. the

gjTMayor Cheatham, of Nashville, has issueda proclamation setting forth thatcommittees have notified Nrlh rn torn citizens

andto leave the place, and asserting that, as it is thedetermination cf the authorities to preserve thepeace, all complaints or suspicions agairst personsof Northern birth can be lodged wiih him for in-

vestigation, and that everything ceces?ary will sobe done. AH persons implicated can be assured arethat they will be protected from unfounded ru-

mors ofand stories until properly investigated bythe proper authorities, and all good citizens are ourearnestly requested to endeavor to quiet the pub-lic

inmind in the present state of excitement, and

to aid the authorities in preserving the peace ofthe city. that

C5T Tba Song of the South, composed and ded-

icated to the sons of the South, by Jamee H.Huber, has just been published by D. P. vaulds the

& Co. in very beautiful style, with a coloredvignette of the seven starred tUg as it is and thefifteen starred flag as it will be. Mr. Huber, inthis song, has achieved quite a musical success; hasthe melody is flowing and spirited, and will ofdoubtless become popular by the Confederatecamp tires. But still it has not the noble majesty theof the Star Spangled Binner, and is not in fact outthe music by which to keep step in the honoredmarch of the American Union.

did not say and eleven thuustmd fourhundred friars taken therefrom, eight thousandof whiclr were the public funds of the county.Six hudred dollars were also taken out of thehouse oi the cashier. It was the private bank ofMr. Bowen. Twelve thousand dollars in thesewar-psni- c times would be considered, in the po-

litest grab game circles, no Bmall pile.

Meeting ok Kkntuckians in Xrcw Or-

leans. We learn from the N. O Picayuneof Saturday that a very respectable number ofKentuckians assembled on Friday evening in thegentlemen's parlor of the St. Charles Hotel forthe purpose of raising a company to be composedof native Kentuckians, residents of that city. Asthere was a conflict in relation to the day ap-

pointed for the meeting, Col. Huey announcedthat the meeting would be postponed until Mon-

day evening.

A Tfrriiilb Tornado. On Salurday eveninglast a violent whirlwind vioited the residence ofMr. Jesse Stone, who lives near King s Mill, inCUrk county, tore down the fences, the dwellinghouse, and all the out buildings, except the kitch-

en. It happened that Mr. and Mrs. Stone wereabsent, but seven children were at home; and al-

though the house was torn to the ground, notone of the children was even slightly injured.This seems almost providential.

Fatal Affray Two Mew Killed On Fri-

day, the 19th, an altercation occurred in Texastownship, St. Francis county, between EdwardLindsa', of Monroe county, and a mm from theNorth a carpenter by trade (whose name is

unknown), in which both were killed, theformer with a knife, and the latter by gunshot.The carpenter had been accused of entertaining and

perhaps disseminating abolition opinions, and was

further charged with wishing to marry a mulatto

girl belonging to some person in the neighbor- -

hood; and on the day the killing occurrea en in-

vestigation before a magistrate was to take place.

Before the trial came on, the affray commenced,

which resulted as above. Another party, whose

name could not be ascertained, was also stabbed

and seriously wounded by the carpenter before he

fell.

Attempted Suicide An attempt was made

bout 10 o'clock yesterday morning by T. Demp

ster, the well known painter, who reaides at 611

Jefferson street, to commit suicide by cutting his

throat. He had been quite dissipated for severaldays, and was evidently delirious at the time hecommitted the rash act. The instrument usedwas a small penknife, but the gash is a fearfulone. Dr. Pirtle was called in and dressed thewound, whereupon the patient was removed tothe Chestnut Street Hospital. The Doctor thinkshe will recover. Dempster is about thirty-thre- e

years of age, and has a wife and four children,the youngest of which is but two or three daysold.

Scarcity ok PKRcrssioN Caps. There is agreat scarcity of percussion caps in the SouthernConfederacy, and heavy bonus is said to havebeen offered by the State authorities of Virginiato any one who will establish a percussion capmanufactory in that State.

J"Geo. W, Ellis, the man who was arrestedin Cincinnati a few days ago on the charge oftreason, was discharged by the United StatesCommissioner on Thursday.

Pensacola Fort Pickens Fort McRakFort Barrancas. We find the following in theMobile Mercury. The article is made up fromthe observations of a person who visited Pensaco-l- a

on purpose to find out what was going on

there:Pensacola is atout seven miles north of the

Navy-yar- and the first military post on the roadbetween the two places was, at the time of thevisit, about two miles north of the Navv-yar-

Troops have, however, since been stationed atPensacola, and by this time the whole line ofshore strie'ly guarded. As the Navy-yar- wasapproached, were being thrown upand mounted with guns, to effectually preventthe landing of troops from the water. The Navv-yar- d,

and the various buildings attached to it,are enclosed by high brick walls on three sides,the fourth fronting the water, and, of course, suf-

ficiently guarded on that side from any attack,except from the guns of Fort Pickens. All thebeautiful buildings within this enclosure, inclu-ding officers' quarters, armory, barrack work-shops, &c., are, we are sorry to say, within range

the guns of Fort Pickens, and, if a wanton de-

struction of property is determined upon by OldAbe, could be readily battered down. This can-

not be helped, should the conflict happen and lustany length of tine. After passing through theenclosure, we come again to a range of beautifuldwellings public property formerly occupied bythe various employees of the yard, but now occu- -tied as barrack by the Zouaves, from New

who keep constant and watchful guardupon everything. Here we bein to see the na-ked walls of Pickens and here, also, we begin tosee, lower down, behind the high Band drift whichskirts the whole beach, masked batteries, wellconstructed and mounted with long, heavy, de-

structive locking colunibtads, with their maga-zines and places of retreat for the gunners dug inthe dry sand, covered with plat k and aixain withsand, which renders them as completely bomb-proof as any casemate built of brick- and mojtar.

These batteries completely line the whole shorefrom the raw yard to Barrancas, a distance ofalaut two mOes. Barrancas is an old Spanishfort, strongly built for defence and placed In com-plete repair by the United States Government at

immense cost. Here the shore becomes high-er, and all along it from Barrancas to within aabort drstance of Fort McRae are to be seen thoseformidable sand batteries with heavy guns, over-looking Fort Pickens. Fort McRae is the last of

defences. It is situated at the entrance ofharbor, directly opposite Fort Pickens, andlittle more than one and a quarter miles from

that structure. Fort McRae is thought to beweak, but to the inexperienced eye of our inform-ant lor ked strong enough for all the purposes forwhich it was erected. Neither McRae nor Pick-ens on the water side were intended to resist shottired from anything stronger than wooden walla,and both are effective against any ships attempt-ing an entrance into the harbor.

From Fort McRae our friends had a full viewthe hostile fi 'et lying at anchor off Santa Kosa

Island, at some distance from the shore, and outthe reach of shot from McRae. There

seemed to be considerable activity on the island;quite a number of horses were in service, haulingwagons loaded with various articles from the

to Pickens. Smull boats were continuallypassing from the ships to the shore and back, and

little steamer Wyandotte was busily engagedtransporting troops from the larger vessel to position nearer the shore, from where they weretaken in small boats to the beach. Pickens hasthus been reinforced, and now holds its full com-

plement of men. As well as could be ascertained,United States force, including marines, now go

number something like 4,000 men. itsFort Pickens is situated on the extreme west-

ern end of Santa Rosa Island. Its walls areprotected on the land side by earth embankments

ditches, but toward the water three of itscurtains have no other protection than theStrength of its walls.

The main land shore from Fort McRae to thenavy-yar- d, a distance of over four miles, is becurved something like the shape of a half moon,

hit the three naked curtains of Fort Pickenscompletely encircled and exposed to all our in

batteries from McKae to the navy-yar- Manythese batteries are so placed sb to enfilade the in

walls of Pickens, and, should the fight come off,friend thinks Pickens will be knocked to pieces

a short time.

This Arrest ok Lieut. Brown in UostosFurther Particulars. It has already been stated

Lieut. I. N. Brown, of the United Statessteam frigate Niagara, at Boston, who last weekrefused to take anew the oath of allegiance to

United States Government, threw up his in

commission, and was subsequently arrested on acharge of treason. From the Boston Post wegather the following additional particulars:

Lieut. Brown resides at Louisville, Ky., andbeen 27 years in the navy. Upon the arrival of

the Niagara here, Com. Stringham's instruc-tions that ail officers should be required to take anadditional oath, obligating themselves to terve

United States during the tear, was carriedas regarded the officers of that frigate.

Lieut. Brown said that while not repudiating anyallegiance to the United States government, he,

returned as he was from a loDg voyage, andunacquainted with the exact state of affairs in

country, desired to acquaint himself withcondition of things before swearing to do allGovernment might demand, e.ven to shellingcity which contained his wife and children.

He wished to be put upon his parole of honor,and receive his discharge if receive it he mustwhen at home in Louisville. The request wenot granted, and then followed a rumor that hewas about to carry two slaves with him to theSouth. This caused a larpe mob to assemble atthe railroad detot, and there was much excitement until it was ascertained that the rumor wasunfounded. Then be was charged with havingstatfd that he was fining tn bis plantation, andshould fight for the flag he found Hying over it,and for his native State. His remarks causedsome angry feelings, but be was not molested.Application wa' made to District Attorney Wood-bury for a warrant for the aire t of Brown, butafter hearing the statements of witnesses, be saidbe had no authority to a warrant under theproclamation of the President, us rebels by that

were allowed thirty days to liyown their arms. He advised Mr. W. L, Burt,

who was acting in the case, to apply to GovernorAndrew, who at once commanded his arrest. Inthe meantime the erwd visited Ihe Worcesterdepot, where a portion of Lt. Brown s baggagewas, and broke it open, but. hnding no materialsof war, disturbed it no further. Lt. B. was subsequently accompanied by the Mavor to theCharlestown navy yard, and reportid himself toCapt. Hud on, thus escaping fromthe Boston mob. It was thought the charge oftreason would be dropped.

Gov. Dennison Requests a Meeting of theGoveenors ok New York, Pennsylvania, InDIANA, AND ILLINOIS, AT CoLUMBUS, FOB CON

SULTATION. The Harrisburg correspondent of thePhiladelphia Bulletin writes as follows:

A communication has been received by Gov.Curtin, per the hands of the gentleman abovereferred to, from Gov. Dennison. of Ohio, requesting Governors Curtin. and Morgan of NewYork, to meet himself and the Governors of Indiana and Illinois in council, at Columbus onnext Monday evening, to compare plans of thecampaign. The proposition of Gov. Curtin to theGovernor of Ohio to march the volunteers ofI ennsj Ivania, in connection with the troops ofine isonnwest, to the Federal city by anroute decided upon, was at first, as I informedyou by telegraph, received very favorably. Butnince that tim there have been reasonsto suppose that the first battle would notbe fought at the Capital, and hence thchange. Ine plan of Dennison is to marchan army of eighty thousand men to Richmondand there await the attack of the Southern armvas it is generally believed that Jefferson Davismaking toward that point; the Ohio volunteersnow at Lancaster, to be reinforced from lime totime, and they, in connection with the Pennsylvania volunteer, prepared to cut off any invasionfrom this side of Maryland. In consequence ofthe meeting of tne Legislature on this dav, it willbe impossible for Gov. Curtin to be present, atthough it may be convenient for Gov. Morgan toaccede to the request. Outside of the reason as-signed, it is the desire of Gov. Dennison not todraw his troops too far away from home at thepresent time, nntil something definite as regardsthe movements of the Southarn army is ascer-tained. Another point of the Governor's commu-nication is that he has iasued orders that nofurther communication te held with Baltimore,via the Baltimnro and Ohio Railroad; while inthU State no more provisions will be allowed toleave here by way of the Susquehanna and TideWater Canal.

Scene in Cnuitcii. A singular sceoe took

place on Sunday week in West Philadelphia, atthe church in charge of the Rev. Henry A. WiseJr., son of the ex Governor of Virginia. In the

prayer of Mr. Wise, who is an Episcopalian, he

left nu th PrasiiiAnt. whan Mr. Drexell. one of

the leading members, rose and demanded that be

should repeat the prayer correctly, which the

clergyman refused to do. He was then compelled

to leave the nulr.it and the church without

preachintr his sefmon. So says one of the Pbila

dfllnhia nanera. We notice the arrival of Mr.

Wise at Richmond announced since then.

The City ok Washington Gwgrtiphieal

Defences, J.tc. A Northerner, writing from

Washington to the New York World, gives thefnliAwintr (ikatchof what he conceives to be the

geographical defences of the Federal Capital.I have alluded in a previous letter to the moot-

ed question, whether the city of Washington ismore exposed or protocted by the system of itstopographical plot. Its streets point directly tothe four quarters of the compasn, running paral-lel to a meridian line, and crossing the formerfrom east to west. Thtv are diagonally intersected by the spacious avenues named after therespective States of the Union. The plan wasthat of Washington himself, who arranged it withspecial view to the value of its military features.'1 he great avenues constitute at their angles ofintersection on the boundarios of the town, pointsof defence from which the termini of a'l the streetsbearing north and south can be easily protected,and afford direct r utes for the swift movement ofmen and artillery from one end of the city to an-other. But the city is laid out on so grand ascale its northern or land boundary beintr nearlylive miles in extent that ths very magnificenceof its distances would diffuse the strength of anarmy of occupation.

Ihe natural geographical defences of Washington are unsurpassed. Faced on the southwestby the PotomHC, and on the southeast by theAnacostia, or Eastern Branch, at whose intersec-tion lies its extreme sout hern point, its eminences,like the seven hills of Rome, rise nobly here andthere, as command ng for military purposes as forthe sites of the putlic edifices which crown them.Three of these elevations lie along the southwestboundary, between hich and tho Virginia shoreflows the Potomac; and across the river thelength of the Virginia hills rises by a slope ofhalf a mile. Any forces locating on this slopewill be exposed to the inspection and fire of ar-tillery from the eminences above-name- of whichI shall say more anon. It is from Virginia, ofcourse, that danger would first be looked f.r, butthe Virginia bour.d.iry 19 thus happily providedwitn the strongest natural defences.

The shore of Mamand lies opposite to thesoutheastern limit of tha city. The Anacostiariver is narrow, though deep enough for the passage of large vessels at hib water to the navyyard. Here, too, is a bridge, crossing just abovthe yard, to Uniontown. But the high groundsof the Capitol hill overlook this region, and theriver marks the line of defensive operations.

It is, of course, on the northern boundarytoward the State of Man land, that Y ashingtonis most open to the approach of a hostile force.If Maryland remains true to the old Hig, it mustbe a large and daring army that would ventureon her territory. But, commencing at the ex-treme west end of the city, let us see what arethe natural defences in the north. First, we haveRock creek, a narrow river, flowing through adeep ravine, and dividing Washington fromIreorgetown. Ihen, commencing on tins creek amile above the city, a range of hills, fairly skirt- -ins; tne em ire- - land boundary of the Capitol.stretching along for miles till it crosses the Ana-costia river on toe east.

It is thought probable, from many reasons, thatheavy batteries will be located on the several hillsdescribed above, as commanding the Virginiashore. These are all to the west and south of theWhite Hosse, and are as follows:

1. The hih ground near "The Circle," bywhich designation the round plot, containing theWashingUn statue, and located at the west endof Pennsylvania avenue, u. known to all fWquent-er- s

of the city. On this spot Washington was en-

campedto

with Braddotk's army, and it was from ifthis elevation that the advantages of the angle,formed by the two riverc, for the site of a statelycity, attracted his youthful attention.

2. The open space by the observatory a com-manding elevation, close by the side of the river.

X Tho hill on which the Washington monu-ment is undergoing slow construction. This islower down the river, and overlooks tho "long ofBridge" of the Washington and Alexandria rail-road, connecting with the Virginia shore.

It is also probable that batteries will be placedon other elevated or open localities, such as both Toextremities of Capitol Llill, the City mil square(Magundois's field ba'te y is already locatedhere), the Presidential reservation, "&c. TheKtx-- Cretk bridge, between Georgetown andWashington, the "Long bridge," and the bridgenear the navy-yar- d, mav all he advantageouslyoccupied by artillery. The troops from s,

Pennsylvania, and other Northern aStates will find employment for two-thir- of itsforce in tho occupation ard protection of the landboundary on the north. The secession army maymake a detour to the northwest, cros the Poto- -mac near the Little Falls, soven miles alove thecity, and march over Man-lan- territory to at- -tack the city on the wrakest iide. &c,As a precaution against surprise, and in con-sequence of the late advices from Virginia, Gen.Scott has already instituted certain prudent meas-ures. Thee Consist of the establishment of nightpatrols and of pots for mounted sentries at theextremities of all the avenuos leading out of the andcity. Sentries and living artillery are also guard-ing nightly the various bridges named above.All the public buildings and departments, theCapitol and the White House, are also underguild, and the surveillance will hourlv becomemore strict with the arrival of the now forces ex-pected. As soon as any c nsiderable number arequartered here, Washington mmt present theaspect of a seiged town, and martial law will ob-

tain in all its provisions, with the single reserva-tion of the continuance of the act of habeas cor-pus.

month every inlet in the Southern coast will be atclosed.

There is great excitoment prevailing in Western Maryland in consequence of continued incur-sions of organized secessionists searching dwel-lings for arms.

Scattering parties of Government troops nowfrequently extend their excursions upon Virginiasoil. The secession outposts thus far always runupon their approach.

Ihe Legislature will pass a bill ratifying Mr.Corwins amendment to the Constitution of theUnited States It h expected this body will adjourn early next week.

Ihe most important action of the Assembly today was the adoption of a resolution sending commissioners to Washington to intercede for peacebetween the sections. The commissioners appointed are Ui-t- Scott. K. M. McLane. and W. J.Ross.

By telegraph to the CincinnatiCairo, Thursday, May 2.

The war news is quieting down. ''Fort Cairo"has not been taken, although reports were circulated that Cairo would be attacked to day. Thereare now here 5,250 trocps, 30 pieces of cannon, afull supply of guns, ammunition, &c. A mes-senger from Columbus and Paducan reports theexcitement in those places abating, and the citi-

zens taking a more rational view of things.The troops here are now in the service of the

United States.A number of the recruits refused to take the

oath and left the racks. They were willing toprotect Illinois from invasion, but would not. goover the river to war against their friendoin Ken-

tucky and Missouri. The reports of an army ad-vancing on Cairo are not credited y.

A military ball took place here last night, atthe St. Charley and passed otf pleasintly.

The Sail ia Woods passed here from St.Louis, full of provisions and produce for the Ten-nessee river. Commorce South will not be inter-rupted.

Tennessee out ok the Union. The Buffalo

He was so informed by a member of the Legisla

ture. The matter is kept secret, but will be pro-

mulgated in a few davs. The ordinance is, how-

ever, to be ratified by the people before it goesinto effect.

Annapolis, May 2.Ihe garrison of Fort Monroe numbers 1,000

Massachusetts men and 300 regulars. 6,0H) Virginians were on the opposite side. The Virginians are erecting a battery at the entrance ofuampton Jioads.

A requisition will in time be made for Federalvolunteers. An order for the same was drawn upnuon ine outbreak, occurred tn Baltimore.

Frederick, Mn., May 2.The following an abstract of the report of

the Committee on Relations tothe As-sembly on the Fubject of a communication fromthe Mayor of relative to the early res-toration of railroad communication between Bal-timore and other points:

The committee conceded the interruption oftravel to be an ammivated evil, but if facilitiesfor invasion were offered to fanatical and excitedmultitudes from the North who publicly threatenour destruction, it could be hardly consistentwith prudence to reopen their channels of intercourse with the Knrttiern atate. ibey cannot beefficiently without guarantees fromsome quarter for the safety and peace of Mary-land. The report animadverts upon the courseof the Federal Government in stationing troopsat Annapolis and seizing the road to Washington,and considers such a course as being treated as aconquered province, and it is therefore the dutyof the Legislature to ascertain the position whichthe federal Government is determined to occupytowards this State.

The committee conclude with the followingresolution:

That commissioners be appointed to confer withPresident Lincoln with regard to the present andany proposed military use and occupation of thaState by the General Government, and also to ascertain and report whether any arrangements arepracticable for the maintenance of the peace andhonor of Maryland. Adopted by both the Senateand House.

Montkkai., May 3.There is nothing further concerning the wreck

of the a! earner United States. Two steamershave left to render assistance.

Washington, May 3.The principal officers of the Military Depart

ment at Washington are Col. Maxwell, com-manding; M j'ir Barnard, Chief Engineer; MujorBrucker, Chief Quartermaster s Department; Lt.Beckwitb, Chief of Subsistence Department: andSurgecn Lamb, Medical Infpector.

tvOi. Ellsworths rire Zouaves arrived y

and were enthusiastically received.The Petersburg Express of says that a

Kentucky regiment of 400 men is en route forLynchburg.

The Governor has resolved to station a largenumber of troops at Petersburg.

Ihe Charleston Courier of lucsdav Bays, welearn from the most reliable Bource that "President Davis will take command, in person, asGeneral-in-Chie- f of the forces gathering in Vir-ginia.

Washington, May 3.From private information, believed to be relia

ble, it is ascertained that Virginia herself does notmeditate an attack on Washington; that subjectbeing foY the consideration of the ConfederateStates. The throwinc of troops into Virginia issad to be in anticipation of a declaration of warby President Davis s Congress, as it is expectedthat the gathering in Washington is ultimatelyintended to invade the South.

A daspatch from Kaleiirh svs the Legislaturemet yestorday. The Assembly was speedily or-ganized. A bill calling a Convention passedunanimously. It will assemble on the 20th inst.Ihere was no feature m the bill referring itsaciion to the people. The Southern ConfederacyHig is firing over the Capitol, rsorth Carolinais virtually out of the Union.

The Governor baH organized a camp of instruction at Raleigh. He says the Northern Govern-ment i3 now concentrating a large force in theDistrict of Columbia, ostensibly to protect theseat of Government, but such a force cannot beallowed to remain within the limits of Marylandor the borders of Virginia without seriously en-

dangering the liberiy of the people of thoseStates.

If thev be conquered and overrun, we will bethe next prev of the invaders. Policy, then, aswe'l as sympathy and a feeling of brotherhoodenjoins, as well as common interest requires us,

exert our energies in defence of Maryland andlrginia. Every battle fought then will be a

battle fought in bebalf of North Carolina andthere our troops should be speedily stmt.

Boston, May 3.Bv permission of the Secretary of the Treasury,

the steamer Bedford of the Boston and Baltimoreline will sail with a full cargo fur Baltimore. She is forbidden to call at Norfolk.

In conclusion, the Governor savs: "1 ermit meappeal to you and through you to the whole

To the Editors of the IxmisriUe Journal:Shelbtvillk, April 29, 1861.

The course of the Journal and Democrat fromthe beginning of the difficulties under which ourcountry has suffered so much has been univer-sally approved by all lovers of con-

stitutional liberty. Especially has this been thecase in this community. Your paper has alwaysexercised a commanding influence in forming andsustaining the sentiment of this county, and neverbefore has its influence been so great as at thepresent time. May your skadtjw never be less!And most nobly will Oid Shelby respond to yourefforts. If the Yancey ticket had not abandonedthe field we should have beat them by a largervote than the Bell and Douglas vote combinedluat 1 And mi r neonle fitiil intend tn vntn nnthe 4th of May, notwithstanding the withdrawal!of the opposing ticket.

The efforts of the Yanceyites now will be tokeep the people from the polls, bv representingthat there is no opposition to the Crittendenticket, and that the Harder State Convention willnever meet. We understand that game here andintend to vote even if we were assured the Con-

vention never could meet. The people wish theirvoice to be heard, and when heard they intend itshall be obeyed. There ia an universal distrustof our Governor in the minds of the people. Tbeyfeel that he is an enemy and conspirator againstthe peace and dignity of the Commonweal! hwhose Constitution and laws he has sworn tomaintain. There is a stern, culm determination at.never to submit to be dragged from the protection $."

of the Government of cur fathers, unless by thevoice of a majority of the whole Commonwealthexprrsaed in a constitutional way. No bogusconvention, cilhd together by the Governor, or by

n irregular Legislature, can command tne obeuier.ee of the neoole of Shelby acd Spancor. And

is well for those who wish and intend by foulmeans to precipitate Kentuckv-ffint- revolution

understand that the people of Kentucky intendmaintain peice with the Federal Government. a

The State has announced this policy to the con-

tending parties, and the policy must be carriedout, if civil war in our own State is to be avoided.

i an unvarnished truth, that one half or morethe citizens of thi- State will forcibly resist se-- c

ssion from the United States, and it is asking agreat many as much as they can grant when theyare required to be neutral. Having assumed neu-

tral

U

ground, we ought to maintain it in good faith.This is the least that the Government and those b

the State who favor the upholding of the Gov-

ernment cm or ought to ask. This being thecase, should the enemies of the country be anylonger allowed in open day and in violation of theneutrality, not to say the loyalty of Kentucky, toorganize and equip military companies in the ofcounties and chief city of the State, parade them atwith mus-i- and banners in your streets, and con-

vey them over Kentucky's chief road, with thep.

avowed object of making war upon the Govern-

ment? This thing should at once be stopped, elewe cannot expect our neutrality to be respected.Such a neutralitj does not deserve respect. Wehad better at once be the open enemies of thiGovernment than to claim such a position For

we should avow ourselves the open enemien .f

the Government, it has the power and would un-

doubtedly exercise it, to see that 6uch things 31,

should not occur.What is our Governor, who assume to be so 9J,

anxious to keep the peace, about that he cannotthese violations of the law? of

Wht re are the ministers of the.law, that theyinterfere not to check thes. lawie-- s outrages on

the Commonwealth?And why do the loyal people of Lcutsville. who

true and who are interested beyond all otherspreserving our neutrality, allow these offencea

worthy the consideration of your citizens at

quences of Kentucky's seceding from the Union,ihe people have been made to consider the m it-t- In

in its proper light. Judge Bullock made no onappeals to the passions or prejudices of his hear-

ers, but addressed himself to their judgment andpatriotism. Many, very many, who are not ottgiven to the melting mood," were molted into attears. Ah! wbeu we see the gray headed sires,the middle aged, and the young wiping the tearB

from eves not given to weeping, we afk whatcauses' these tears to flow? Is there no cailfe for

Brother preparing to meetbrother in deadly combat on the field ofbattleithen ask yourself, why Is it?
