(gjjttaflo gWfjttnfe HONDAX, APRIL 8, 186 L • '■ ■ i rUOPEB ABGCHENT. The endure-and-wait party of the North the mOk-sops of our politics—who will consent to ho effort to save the eminent on earth from utter destruc- : tjon,if that effort implies more than the contfrraonce of Ckmgreesional gab- j hie, or the writing ofa conciliatory letter, ! are the shallowest philosophers that this/ world has lately produced. AH govern ment has its ultimate basis in force. Un fortunately, the world has,not arrived at that perfect stage in which, moral senti ments or intellectual enlightenment are exclusively capable of regulating its affairs, or bolding in cheek the bad who are mixed up among the good of its inhabitants. Physical capability—-the power to punish Infractions of law—is as necessary in this age as in any other that has preceded it; and hfi who.supposcs' that it can be set aside or replaced in this national emcr-' gcncy by buttered words; is a * fool, whom at would be a mercy to bore for simples. The men who are engineering the treason in the South to a jubilant ter mination, are only men, after all. Despite their gasconade and chiyafric pretensions, they are controlled by the same motives that, animate other plotters against the peace of sociefy. They are just as quick to smell danger to person and property, as the probable consequence of their, rebel lious acts, ‘as the shrewdest Tankee who walks, op legs. As long.,as they are con vinced that they can plot with impunity— seize government vessels, fortresses, arms, arsenals, mints, and munitions ot war, and play other high pranks of pretended sover eignty, including the hanging of every man suspected of dissenting from their opin ions—they will go ahead with confidence and daring which supposed impunity in spires.' Let them understand, however, that the danger and responsibilities which ordinarily attach to treason may be visited upou their heads,- and thousands of the rampant bullies who are looking around for an u Abolitionist ” in whom to flesh their swords,, would become as mild as so many sucking doves, and as loyal as Andy Johnson. It is this conceded impunity with which their treason has been shielded that has given it the alarming propor tions it has latterly assumed. They have no real cause of grievance., Their woes are imaginary and their action is only the prompting of mad ambition or the agony of partisan. hate. At any rate, they Are acting upon no settled conviction of patriotic duty like that which filled the hearts of the men of the Revolution. And ; they need only the wholesome check which force and fear can give to cause their halt, if not rapid retreat. They need to be convinced tlnU the determination to pre serve this Union is earnest, and that to break it up will cost many thousands of lives and tens of millions of money, to take a view of their duty in the premises which has not yet been presented. Put their lives, their wealth, their family comfort, their slaves, the prosperity of their children and their political standing in peril by a dresolution on the part of the Government to put down treason at all hazards, and th?R thing of sporting seces sion cockades, waving palmetto flags and the like, would cease to be holiday busi ness and become a reality to be gingerly dealt with. There is another aspect of this case as it •lands: The men of the Border States ▼ho are yet loyal, need, not soft "words and •weet-scented promises, hut decisive acts. They must be supported by arms, not promises of concession. They must be warranted in saying to their neighbors that war is approaching with all its attendant horrors—war in whic.i they must go down before the numbers of tbe loyal Union men; and that before the blow is struck and hostilities are begun, they must review their ground and see what they -have to lose by submission to the Constitution and the laws even though administered by Re publicans, and what they have to gain by an Inglorious and disastrous termination of the strife. This is'an appeal which all men can understand—an appeal which Bpeaks to motives that daily shape and control human conduct, whether observed in individuals or masses of men. Until it is made in a way that leaves no doubt of what is impending, we need hope for no diminution of the treason by which the land is tom. BOW TBE NEW TARIFF WORKS, The city reporters of the X. Y. Herald arc filling up columns that sheet with de- \ ecripiions of scenes at the Custom House since the new tariff has gone into effect. Every apparent difficulty is u magnified into the side of a real cue, and all sorts of ob jections are made. The reporters are in. strutted to find all the fault that is possible, and raise all the embarrassment they can. But a one-sided report fails to hide the ad mirable features of the law as a revenue measure. The specific principle works like a charm, in despite of the hindrances thrown in its way. It was discovered to be no great trouble to weigh an article Which was taxed so much per pound, and the amount of duties were then easily calculated. The insurmountable difficul ties predicted by the importer’s organs were found not to exist The result of four days experience under the new law-was, on the whole, quite satisfactory. The amount of revenue collected was nearly or quite double what would have been ob tained under the late law—not that the rates of duties are doubled, but the evasions and frauds practiced under the act of 1857 are slopped. To the honest importer the new law will be far more beneficial than the old, as it will protect hitn against the undue competition of those who imported under false invoices. The old Satanic frightened its New York readers, or such of them as were silly enough to credit its statements, with the idea that tire new tariff would be prohibit ory, and no more goods would be imported into New York after the Ist of April, 1801, until the act was repealed. But it appears from its own columns that several ship loads a day of foreign goods are arriving and paying the new rates of impost. A year from now. and the present clamor against Morrill tariff will have ceased, in New York, and mainly In England. It will he shown that nobody has been seriously hart, while the industiy of the country and the revenues of the Government, have been immensely benefltted. ENGLISH VIEWS. - - The views of the London press on the secession question are regularly printed and pretty well understood on this aide of the Atlantic. The comments of the pro vincial journals are notso often seen as they might be with profit to American readers. It is a remarkable fact, for instance, that the Manchester Guardian (liberal) and the Edinburg(toiy) coincide in the opinion that if secession becomes a fixed «hd recognized fact) Great Britain will eventually collect the back interest on her : Mississippi and Florida bonds at the can .■whs mouth* , -The Guardian also holds another novel and yet plausible view of the results of secession, to-wit; that if _an. absolutely free republic is created in ,!the northern half of the Chitedßtates, bulk of the capital now invested in American securi ties by British stock and bond-holders, will s residence as well as an investment in- this country—that the migration, of. maUh to the TJnited.gtates will be as rapid | asthe raigiafion oflaborhas been in times j ***?*• AdvcrtUa- boldest the i wffl he vastly short- i eued by sUowing disnnion to take place- ! —thattwo nations grou.ded .upon anch Op-' ■ . posite ideas as freedom and- slavery,' rw. j not exist in clcse contatS—and that slavery j must be crushed out by the sheer necessity | of its own weakness and the power of its 1 adversary. These opinions will impress American leaders favorably oj>:nnlavoia|>ly, WO ol ' theyAT® 3 wftffog ' to sfee their fathe^brokea 1 up. Whdelwe admit the probable J corrfcianees 'upbn' the ace of things 1 jump at any of the inviting results of a I country dismembered, and a Constitution j overthrown. That Great Britain has been ; deterred., of her lnterestTh “State,' only by the of a war with the Uni ted States, is well known to the finannfcl and political word oflwth hemlipheres- That such an. act would meet the ap-' probation of right-minded men every where, will not ’ 'Tie * denied by any ; one who is not a repudiator r and swindler at heart That the unrivaled resources of our country, coupled with Republican in stitutions nnstaihed with the'stripes and unfettered with the manacles of a slave— free, permanent and powerful—would •draw largely upon the capital of foreign nations oppressed with debt and hampered by the arbitrary rules of by-gpne ages, we are not permitted to doubt. That the end of* slavery would be, one way .and another,, greatly accelerated by. disunion, we b<£“ lieve as firmly as TVendeU Phillips, or the journal from which the'opinion is..here quoted. Nevertheless we demand, in the name of the heroes and sages who gave us a Constitution, a government, a country and a standing among the proudest nations .of the earth, that treason be definitely crushed before a word concerning the separation of the sections is listened to. HOW TO EXGCIJTE IT. A writ issued by virtue of the atrocious- Fugitive Slave Law, should he, and legally is, equivalent to a capias for debt—nothing more. To regain liberty of which one has been forcibly deprived, is no crime..The Ingenuity of the legislators and juris taof the Slave States even have never so classed it. Hence parties against whom a Fugitive Sla re Law writ is directed should be dealt with as debtors, not as criminals. The Con-' stitution, the supposed basis upon winch.; the law rests, so characterises those who are amenable to its provisions. “ Persons OWlNOsemceor labor,” is the language in which they are described—not persons guilty of atrocious crime—not dangerous persons to the peace of the State and soci ety, whom to pounce uponln the early morn ing with armed men, is a merit that entitles-, the Marshal to praise. To illustrate what we mean: snopose a white-man to be indebt ed beyond his ability to pay—that a capias is in the officer's hands for his arrest upon the suit of some inexorable creditor. "Would public opinion, precedent, public, justice or common decency justify that of ficer in sending of armed ruffians to that debtors house, at an unusual hour, breaking in upon him hy the hired conni vance of a convenient pimp before provi ded? Shall be drag his children naked from their beds, and, without the clothing that decency requires, toss them into a car riage and, accompanied by the parents, ; hustle them off to a special train, in waiting, and on it whirl them out of the reach of friends who might discharge the obliga tion ? A case so managed would ring in the ears of the public for months, and the actors in it would be sure of long remem brance of s'me sort But wherein does it differ from the arrests of‘‘persons owing service or labor” as they are now-a-days managed ? In nothing save that such per sons are usually black, and as such—friend less, homeless, penniless, are entitled to the clemency and consideration from official ; hands that strong men and rich men can ! ensure for themselves. As long as the Fugitive Slave Law blackens the statute book of the Republic, the officers must obey its precepts; but in the name of this outraged community, we demand that there shall be no needless atrocities committed under its sanction. The day has come In which a debt of “ ser vice or labor” “ owing ” by a black man is to be treated as a no more sacred thing, or as no more deserving of Government care than a debt for money due from a white man to a white man. In Democratic days, when slavery and all its adjuncts, down to kidnapping without warrant, were the chief care.of government officials, this discrimi nation against the poor and friendless was expected. This is a Republican era, in which, until the atrocious features of the man-stealing enactment can be wiped but, they must be leniently and considerately enforced, with due regard to the imperilled rights of the alleged slave, as well as to the purse of a relentless master. In that spirit we hoph to see all Republican Marshals do their duty. A TAP CUT OFF. An important older was issued from the Treasury department a few days ago to the Collectors of the ports of New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore, and perhaps elsewhere. .It is an order for bidding the Collectors of those ports from permitting goods to be entered for trans portarion V: any of the seceded States. The following is the official document re lating thereto: 7BOX TOE BEC BET AST OF TEE TBEASUET. Tesasuut Depabtxent. ) Washington, March 30,1861. j sm—The control of the warehouses of the gov ernment In the several port-in the States of Sonth Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisi ana, Florida and Texas; having 'been usurped un der the alleged authority of these States, and the officers of the customs acting under the authority t>T the United Stales having teen forcibly excluded from their proper functions in the custody of mer chandise and superintendence of the entries for warehousing and withdrawal, it has become im practicable to continue the privilege of bonding lor transportation to thoie ports. Collectors of customs are accordingly hereby instructed that no entries for transportation in bonds to those ports can be permitted until other wise directed by this department. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, S. P. CHASE, Secretary of the Treasury. It has been the practice to reship foreign goods arriving at New York and other leading porta to tho Southern ports of entry,, and put them in bond in the Gov ernment warehouses. The duties were paid by the purchasers when the goods were taken out of bond in tnose Southern ports. The merchants in the secession States have been availing themselves of this important privilege rpto the time Secretary Chase issued the order forbid ding it to ho done. The goods thus en tered, paid a duty, to the secession authori ties, and thereby helped to support the rebellion. This tap is now cut off, and several more taps will shortly he severed in like manner. If the bonds of the Gov ernment of New Dahomey sell at 20 per cent, premium, it will not require any other fodder to live on,—imports will be un necessary. STOP THEIB MAILS, We know no reason why 'here should be any faltering abouttho execution of the plain duly which now devolves upon the Postmaster-General, in relation to the United States mails in the seceding States. The last Congress invested him with a dis cretionary power which he might now exercise, with beneficent consequences to the Uni m movement in the North and the Border States. We need not set forth the facts upon which this opinion is based—they are patent to eveyt tnan, wo man and child in the land; nor need we say that if the Administration at ton is about to make the rebels and trail' ore feel that there is a government, there is nothing which will admonish them of their poverty and littleness, so quickly and so cheaply as the withdrawalpf mail facil ities that they now enjoy, mainly at the expense of those whose destruction they are l plotting. -t* “Mr. Dennison,a talentedandijsingyoune lawyer of New York city, was the person who recently..presen ted the beautiful carriage to lira.

The tariff will be the same for all—2o cents for any distance within a mile, and 15 cents a mile for any ad ditional distance; for one hour 60 cents. No extra charge for baggage, except for large packages mid trunks, which will be charged 10 •cents extraforeachoneforauydistance. The above fares are for one - or two passengers—if more than two, one charge of 20 cents each for the entire distance will he made. The New Yorkpapers highly commend the new. .system,, and it.Will undoubtedly become a law. PERSONAL. A correspondent of the Commercial says that the chain-lightning, spread-eagle orator, Ogilvie Byron Young, is now a guest at the Spencer House, Cincinnati, booked as “ Capt. -Scarlett.” It is stated that he went down to Montgomery, quarreled with the Montgomery junta, and left in disgust.

This result is most creditable to the Department, and constitutes striking evidence of a marked improvement in its administra tion since the 4th of March, Promptness, de cision and efficiency have thoroughly sup planted procrastination, timidity and shiflless ness. It was a bold and judicious stroke of policy on Mr. Chase’s part to refuse to award more of the loan than was offered to be taken at fair rates. : He has administered a rebuke to the combination of bidders, which must show them that they overshot their mark, and he has, by this one act, advanced the public credit and greatly promoted public confidence. He says he expects capitalists to bid for the Government loan- as an investment, and not toy with it as fancy stock. The wisdom of his decision is already vindi cated by numerous telegraphic dispatches from rejected bidders offering to take the an awarded stock at higher figures, and it is at this hour apparent that any amount of loan se curities might mow be disposed of at a hand some advance upon ninety-four. It was time that speculators upon the necessities of the Government should’ receive a rebuke. Of course the Secretary has no power to accept these telegraphic offers, nor will here-adver tise the loan. The presumption is that he will avdl himself of his power and issue treasury notes for the balance of the eight millions re quired.—Wash. Cor. X. T. Times. Themad Slone.o XFrom .the Henry County Dial.] Sis"l saw, a short time since, a statement in the Did that a gentleman by the name of Dongan, near NewlJoeton, had been bitten by a mad dog, whereupon I immediately informed said Don can where he would find a mad stone ; and in reply to my letter, I have re ceived the following letter from Mr. Jonah Pratt, a brother-in-law of the said Dongan, and who is well known to me as a gentleman of truth and veracity: He says; “Dongan was bitten about the first of February. The dog came some ten miles; got among Dongans stock, and in at tempting to drive him oS, the dog made at him and gave him some fifteen tusk wounds on the hand, before he could make his escape. One cow and ten hogs, bitten in Dungan’s yard by the same dog, have gone mad and died. Mr. Dongan has applied a mad-stone, which is owned in New Boston; he has also consulted a noted physician of Burlington, lowa. There is no doubt note but that he is entfrety'cored and out ot all danger. Mr. Dun gaa thinks that the physician (whose name is Merchant) could have cored him had he not used the mad-stone, but this makes a sure thing of it” I submit the above for the benefit of those who may be so unfortunate as to need intor mation concerning this marodUnu mad stone.

Condition of Aflalm on Ship and Shore. [Correspondence of the N. Y. Timet.] Usitid Statbs Frigate S A3XSnt: ) * Or* Pensacola Bab, * > Mosday,March3stb,lßol» j ,An .opportunity offers to onoe more let you know how things look down this way during frtaeae troublesome times. ■ About ten days ago Msj. Gen. Bragg (who la -ui command at this place) saw fit to stop all communication between us and the shore, and Capt O’Hara of Fort Mcßae sent ua word that if the Wyandotte did not keep a little further off he would fire into her. Capt. Adams, wishing to avoid a collision with these Tools,' keeparmmself ind - us on boafd'ship. Our supplies have been cut off and the New Orleans ateamerj In passing fir and out of the harbor, avoids ouP boarding boat, so you see we are hard up for news of any kind. Capt Adams addressed a letter to Mr. Welles, i Secretary of the Navy, last Tuesday, and in-it told him that starvation stared ns in the face, and unlesswe heard fromhim or received re lief In ten days from date, he would use hla own discretion about leaving the place. We are all on half rations. We have plenty of money, but. of what us els that to us now? ..Three days ago we transferred from the Brook lyn to this ship 82 troops, and sent her to Key West and Havana for supplies. ; We back in a few days. In the meantime they- may attack Fort Pickens, and we have got to wade through about 3,000 bayo nets to reinforce the Fort, with masked bat teries playing on us from all quarters, in con junction with Mcßea and Btraacaa. Is it not a pleasant picture .to look upon ? Tou must know there Is “an 'arineatice in existence be tween Bragg and Adams. Bragg will not at tack Pickens unless we attempt to reinforce it. We sec troops going in nearly every"day - from New Orleans, Mobile -and other places, and can see them at wofk erecting sand bag batteries, &c,, and here we are cooped up like a lot of chickens, waiting for the Administra tion to do something.' They have neglected ua shamefully at Washington. They do not answer our communications. They do not -send us anything to eat, and yet expect a ship like ours, which has been out over her time, with a broken down and worn out crew, and an old tub like the St. Louis, to do all their fighting in Southern waters, while vessels.not yet three months in commission are'rolling in clover off New York Battery. Everybody in our ship is disheartened, and no wonder. You do not know one-tenth part of what we have suffered lately. They say the darkest hour of the night Is just before the break of day ; it is pitch dark with us just about-this time. lliree nights ago we heard .the booming of cannon,'and saw lights passing and repaseing onshore. We heat to quarters, called “all hands and boats,” mustered our companies, and were all ready to go over the side, when the little Wyandotte came steaming out to let us know it was a false alarm. If I live a hun dred years I shall never forget the feelings I had when I was loading my revolvers. We were all busy with our own thoughts, lean assure you, and for about ten minutes hardly anything was heard. save the tick, tick, of a Colt, or the dull thud of a rifle ramrod. We did all our little valuables up, and directed them each with a letter to our friends at home, in case anything disagreeable might happen to na while attempting to reach the Fort. We have on board now nearly 600 men, with grub enough to last about ten or twelve days longer. ‘ We have about thirty days’ water on board. We bought most of that here before communication was stopped, at a rate of six cents per gallon- All our tish lines are in requisition every day, but sometimes the fish even secede. We heard a rumor lately that Fort Sumter was evacuated, and that Pickens was soon to follow, but don’t believe it We will hear all the news when the Brooklyn comes back, and until that time have got to remain in this miserable state of suspense. THE NOTE OF PREPARATION. Important military and Naval News, [From the K. Y. Times 4th.] It is impossible to conceive, without wit nessing it, the extraordinary change which twelve hours can make in the aspect of mili tary and naval afiairs at the New York station. On Monday last, everything was dull and un interesting on Governor’s Island, at Fort Hamilton, oh Bedloe’s Island, and at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Yesterday there was intense excitement apparent in all of these places. On Monday, orders were received from Washington to fit out the United States brig of-war Perry for sea at once. The authorities immediately had her hauled alongside the wharf, bnt operations had hardly commenced when the order was countermanded. The .Powhattan was then to be put out of commission immediately, and her crew tempo rarily transferred to the receiving ship North- Carolina, This was no sooner done than they were ordered to Norfolk, for the steam frigate Merrimac, it is presumed. And on Tuesday, to the astonishment of every one, the Powhat tan, notwithstanding the unfavorable report of the engineers, was ordered to be equipped for a new commission, with all the expedition at the command of Commodore Breese. On Governor’s Island, too, indications are apparent that troops are about to leave, but there is no such Thing as obtaining particulars. The regular avenues'through which Army and Navy movements are received, are impeded by authority, and nothing can bo known until orders begin to be openly executed. The work on the different vessels at Brook lyn has been rendered more active; and the splendid steam frigate Minnesota, which re turned rotten from China last year, and was subsequently put in. a state of readiness, is to be got in condition to receive her crew with out delay. The Minnesota is one of the splendid steam frigates of forty guns rate, that were construct ed some years ago. They comprise the Niag ara, Wabash, Roanoke, Colorado and Minne sota. The Niagara Is homeward bound from Japan, the Merrimack preparing slowly for sea at Norfolk, the Wabash and Roanoke at Brooklyn, both slowly approaching comple tion, and the Minnesota at Boston, Thelatter is 3,300 tons burden, and was built at Wash ington in 1853, and has only made the one cruise alluded to. She will require nearly 500 men, who will be concentrated in a few days from the different receiving ships. The Mis sissippi steamer, also at Boston, is approach ing readiness for commission, and will proba bly be ordered to sea in a short time. Below the surface of the rumors tl:at at tribute these warlike pcepar lions to tbe pro gress of domestic events, is a somewhat well founded rumor that they have reference to tbe interference of Spain in Central America, and that a formidable military and naval force will be again dispatched there. The coiumander-in-cbkf of the home fleet, Commodore Prendergast, who is now at Nor folk in the leaky corvette Cumberland, re ceived important dispatches from the leading officers of the Army and Navy, now in Wash ington, who h&ve beeu called temporarily to their respective Departments, to facilitate the proper administration of f flairs. It is said that orders were received yester day at the head-quarters of the Army in this city, directing the immediate filling up of tbe short companies that arrived here from Texas, in the Daniel Webster, to their full fight eg strength. Accordingly batches of the most efficient recruits were told off last evening at Fort Columbus, and are probably part ol the Fort Hamilton narrison this morning.

John McLean, Associate Justice of the Su preme Court of the United States, died yester day (Thursday) morning at 9 A M., at his residence in Clifton, three miles from this city. His last summons was a sadden call— since he rode into the city the second day be fore (Tuesday), and had been daring a portion of the winter, and when he left for Washing ton, in unusually good health. About six weeks since, however, he took a violent cold, and owing to the Jact of the distracting crowds in Washington, and the comparative absence of home comforts, with the added de mands upon his time, occasioned by office seekers and other visitors, he doubtless neg lected his health to a degree with him un usual. He was, however, aole to be upon the bench, with the exception of a few days’ ill ness, during the entire winter session of the Supreme Court. He returned to Cincinnati on the 22i ult, suffering from a severe cough t but went about actively, and seemed in usual spirits. On the morning of Wednesday, 3d inst., his physician was sent tfor at an early hour—as the Judge was suffenng much from pulmonary irritation, and evidently failing. He rallied and grew bel ter the same afternoon, but sunk into a stupor at .night, and continued with gradually in creasing debility until Thursdcy morning, when he became unconscious, and passed away silently, and without pain, at the hoar of nine.

I know that the only idea of “ a military necessity ” in the case was the garrisoning of Fort Sumter on a war footing: and when, two weeks ago, it was announced that'tEe withdrikwal Anderson and the abandonment of the Fort was regarded as “a military necessity,” they shared fully the general astonishment, but ’, rejoiced, while others felt humiliated. They neverpretended themselves that any such necessity existed; nor do they they have of late gained‘a degree of* confidence In their ability to make a good fight, as the result of the ex ertions, of Gen, Beauregard. Notwithstand ing everything, there is an uneasiness, an anx iety and apprehension, that the efficiency of their preparations for defense may be tested. The action and non-action at Washington serve ' only to prolong .and intensify , this feeling. A gentleman who has very lately been in communication with Fort Sumter Informs'me that the garrison is on exceedingly smalf al lowance,' and that matters begin to look seri ous with them. Should the supplies now daily obtained in this market be cut off, the situation of the men would be highly critical, and it is not impossible that Major Anderson may be compelled, on his own responsibility, to abandon his position. As heretofore has been the case, the garrison will no doubt con tinue to derive hq slight advantage from their facilities for catering fish around the base of the fort. But there will be no similar way of ■ recruiting the supply of fuel which is now nearly exhausted. 1 ' • • ~ ' ' It is known that within the last few days Gen. Beauregard has given orders to certain of his* subordinates to “clear the decks for action.” The'troops are made to practice daily at the heavy guns and mortars; and we are thus treated to a miniature battle (on one side) almost daily. ‘ The number of men in po sition has of late been diminished rather than increased, by the termination of the period of service of a number ot volunteer companies. A n entire regiment will go out of service in a very short time. It is not a little remarkable th nobody re-cnlists, but all go to their homes to stay. The experience of a single term of enlistment is quite enough- In one month longer the forces of South Carolina will, from this cause, become reduced more than one-half Having finished the harbor defenses, Gen, Beauregard, seemingly anticipating the pres ence of a body ot Federal troops, and with the view of providing against emergencies, has commenced planting a mortar battery at lit. Pleasant. : This point is too distant to take part In an attack on Fort Sumter, and there fore this battery must be designed for other uses. When Major Aoderson was in Fort Moultrie, and it was proposed to drive him out, a battery on Mount Pleasant was com menced, as that point was supposed to com mand Moultrie.—The inferen.e therefore is that the Rebels are providing against the time when Federal troops will reoccupy that fort. There are other movements that indicate the same thing. Indeed recent labors have mainly had reference to land operations, by providing for an attack in the rear. Tine Prospect for Farmers. The West is in luck. Last year it had. the largest crop of wheat and corn this country ever saw, for which, owing to ihe drouth South, and the wet season on the continent and in England, very fair prices were realized. Notwithstanding, however, the large ship ments oi these cereals to every quarter, the farmers of the Northwest still hold over half their crop of wheat, and five-sixths of their corn, and an unusually large surplus of rye, oats, barley, and the minor crops. This being the caae, the agricultural jour nals are discussing the question, Will it pay lor farmers to seed heavily in wheat and corn this year ? Will not prices descend to a ruin ous figure if, to the already overflowing ware houses ofthe West, anew and perhaps aheavy crop of cereals is to be added ? As farmers are now in the midst of seed time, we present a few considerations to them which mayhelp to form their judgment as to what is best to be done. 1. Large crops in this country have gen erally coexisted with good prices. Wheat was never so hL'h os in 1854 and ’55, when crops were abundant, nor so low as ip 1858, when wheat was rusted, and the crop did not pay for cutting. In fact, heavy wheat and com crops create their own demand, by stimulating all manner of industry. 2. The wheat crop of England for the com ing year will inevitably fall far below an av erage, while, notwithstanding the heavy ship ments, the country la fearfully bare of grain. The deficiency oflast year Is proved by official statistics to be fully thirty-sir per cent., while the wet fall, the October frost, and the unusually stormy spring, hove all conspired to interfere with the planting and growth of winter and spring crops. Late accounts from England, represent agriculturists as being sorely discouraged at the prospect before them, aud no doubt is entertained but that a very large amount of wheat will be required from this country. The Liverpool market controls the American markets, and if high prices are maintained there, they surely will be here, no matter how large a crop may be on hand. These considerations, it seems to us, should impress upon farmers the necessity of putting all their spare land into seed. We cannot have too much corn and bread in tbe land, espec ially if, as the grim portents of the time for bode, we are about entering upon an era of civil strife and foreign war.— JS'no York World.

The news received here this morning of the advance of. three thousand Mexicans upon Brownsville, Texas, created quite a sensation in the White House circle and on the streets It has been corroborated by several dispatches, bat is still discredited by officials here. Such enterprise on-ftrepatf of the Mexicans in the present condition of the Mexican Government seems too romantic and incredible for troth. Some account for it by the desire of Juarez that secession shall fail and our Government be sustained, and that such a blow as Gen. Ampudia proposes to strike would prove vex atious In toe extreme to Davis and the Texas Secessionists; also by the fear on the part of the Mexicans that the Confederate States will attempt to acquire Mexico if they establish their independence.— Wash, Cor.

The Great Eastern Coming Again —The English papers received by the Africa an nounce that the Directors of the Great Ship Company have determined upon dispatching the Great Eastern to New Tork on the first of May ensuing. Opt John Vine Hall, her com mander on the first voyage, has been super ceded by Capt. Carnegie, It N., who is to be her future commander. Upon the death of Capt. Harrison, Capt Hall was selected os the commander of the great ship, on account of the reputation he had won in the service of the East India Mail Company, as commander of their steamers. Hehad distinguished himself on several important occasions by the exercise of superior emu and judgment under trying circumstances. Upon the successful conclu sion of the first Atlantic trip ot the monster ship, he was highly <»mplimented, in connec tion with his associate officers, for his eklUful management during the voyage. Joining m this testimonial was Capt Carnegie, with lour others, Captains of the Royal Navy, who were among the passengers. What influences have led to the displace ment of Capt. Hall we 'arc not aware. It is well known that he had not the least responsi bility for the stupid mismanagement of the ship’s affairs during her stay in this city, though we th?nV it not at all unlikely that he has ocerr made the scape-goat for the sins of others. We doubt whether a better commander ora more courteous gentleman has been found to take his .place.— Seta' Tork Times. £sr*The Bonaparte Patterson case, it is said, is to be reopened on an appea 1 .
