ILLINOIS AND KENTUCET*
The conversation reported in our letter
from Cairo, printed herewith, between pol.
Prentiss and Col Tilghman.lhe command
er of the Kentucky militia, is Instructive.
Por the accuracy of our correspondent’s
sketch of the interview and his repoijt of
the conversation we can vouch ‘with abac
lute certainty. Col TUghman represents
the State government of Kentucky—Gov.
'Magoffin's party and pel cy—and his ideas
Of the present crisis and of Kentucky’s
attitude therein, ore of the utmost ccffl se
quence. We allow the intelligent writer
Of the letter in question to present his
own view of the purport ot Col. Tilgh
mau’a visit to Cairo, hot we must protest
against any complexion of the case which
ocoordes to Kentucky tins right to say bow
far south the armies of the United States
can be permitted to march, or what meas
ure of restriction n ay be placed upon the
navigation of the Ohio and Mississippi
rlverk Hencr, while we ore thankful lor
Col Tilghman’s assurances of good feeling,
and while wc heartily reciprocate his de
sires (or peace and amby between Ken
tucky and the loyal Slates of the North
west, we cannot for a moment admit the
light of any State to throw heiself as a
bulwark of protection between tho fede
ral government and the armed traitors
who are scekiog to overthrow it.—
Nor can we admit for a moment, that
any State or any number of States may
usurp control ot the navigable waters of.
the country, or undertake to prescribe the
sort of check which the Government at
Washington may place upon the internal
commerce of the country. So far as Col.
Tilglmau asserted ebher of these rights
as appertaining to Kentucky, he com
mitted an essential error—an err or which,
we are happy to kam, Col. Prentiss
promptly corrected.
The conversion on the part of Col Tilgh
man seems to Lave been conducted on the
hypothesis that Kentucky and Illinois
were the only parties interested—as though
Kentucky and Illinois were independent
and absolutely sovereign nations, having
power to make treaties, declare war, and
regulate commerce. On the part of Col j
Prentiss the opposite view was taken, that j
these powers are vested alone in the United
States of America, that he (Prentiss) and
the men under his command are not the
soldiers of Illinois, hut a part of the United
States army, and bound to obey the orders
of their superiors. Col Tilghman looks
upon the occupation of Cairo, and the
Stoppage of steamers having munitions of
war on board, as in some degree an act of
hostility on the part of Illinois against
Kentudq/. Theie could be no greater
mistake. There are not ten men
in the North-west who believe that
Illinois has the right to commit an
act of violence against Kentucky. There
are not ten men who wish to commit an
act ol violence against a single loyal State.
The hi lief is universal that the Govern
ment of the whole nation can alone put an
army in ihe field, can alone establish a
blockade, can alone make a treaty, can
alone issue a clearance. Illinois is largely
peopled by immigrants from Kentucky and
their children. President Lincoln himself
was born in that State. These persons
entertain precisely the same view which is
held by immigrants from New England,
New York and Pennsylvania, to wit: that
Kentucky is a friendly, loyal Sta e, deserv
ing our confidence and entitled to demand
it so long as she keeps herself free fre m
the stain of secession, but that neither she
nor any other commonwealth can arrogate
to hersrif the powers vested by the Consti
tution in the Federal Government, without
incurriog the penalties of rebellion. The
utmost anxiety is felt that Kentucky
should avoid the coni agon which has at
last eprea i into Virginia, and which now
bids fair to Involve her in hideoqs ruin. If
there be any single Stale in the South for
whic Illinois feels a peculiar and'affec
tionate regard, it is Kentucky. But this
friendship can be turned into an equally
warm animosity whenever Kentucky thall
assert her right to interpose a shield be
tween treason and its just punishment
The idea that any citizen owes a higher
allegiance to his own State than to the
United States of is vastly per
nicious. It has become so intolerable—the
people have been so outraged by the spec
tacle of the Stars and Stripes trampled in
• the dust to give place to rattlesnakes, pal
msttoes, pelicans, lose stars and other
Vermin—that every loyal citizen is ie&Cj
to give his List dollar and then lay down
his life in a stupendous effort to expunge
the dogma that a Stale can override,
nullify or break up the Government
Of the United Stales. While this
question remains unsettled—while this
Aogma retains a foolh Id on American
call—here cm he no peace; there ought
<o be none. It will be baid for us to fight
Kentucky on any issue; It may be Lard in
more senses than one. But we shall infal
libly do it if she seeks to throw her pro
tection, her “armed neutrali y,” around
Jeff Davis sad his fellow miscreants.
Even though it were legil and constitu
tional for her to do so, we of the! loyal
S atps cou’d not afford to let a neutral
State hold one of our hands while the trait-
Os arj driving at ns with both fists.
Wc are far from believing that Col
T Ighmta truly represents tiie people of
Kentucky. The splendid vote east for thic
Union ticket at the recent election proves
to our minds that Kentucky has no part
nor lot in the flagitious rebellion instituted
by South Carol na, and that sh; will
henceforth have no masks upon her nnaf
lected loyally.
A QUACK BfiKEDT,
John If, Bulls of Virginia has written a
letter to Attorney General Bates, request*
ing him to read it to the President and
Cabinet. The letter is dated April 10 b, a
few days after the treasonable assault on
the American Flag at Fort Sumter, and
the issuing of the President’s proclamation I
calling for 75,000 volunteers in defence of
Xhe Government, and for the enforcement
4>f Ihs laws. Toe letter has only recently
been made public. Bolts tells Bates that
the Pfoctera ition was the most unfortu
nate document (liat was ever issued from a
government; that with it, the Union party
and the Union feeling has been entirely
swept out of existence, and that nearly
every mauls inflamed with a passion for
war.” He thinks this contest cut only
end in the establishment of a “halelnl,
loathsome, military despotism,** and paints
as a graphic picture of the inevitable hor
rors of civil war. He proposes “atrace
to hostilities, and the immediate assemb
ling of a National Convention to noognize
tfttf independence such of the State* at de
tirt to icithdratefram the Union, and make
the experiment of a separate Government.* 1
The proposition to assemble a National
Convention the South has already spumed.
Lincoln spoke favorably of it In his In
augural The last Congress were dis
posed to call one. Several Northern States
recommended it. But the ■ Secession
ist! spat upon the project and , informed
the country that they would leave Iherl
sovereign pleasure,. and !
wanted no Convention—would ask the ‘
permission,of and demanded
from the National Gbm«m«nt an un
conditional recognition of their Independ
ence as a foreign power carved out of the
Union.
The nsxt step was hLinike-waron - the
Gjvenrment, to bombard Fort Sumter and
tear down the Ainerican nod then
prvpfcre to mI» the National Capital. And

Ik is too late now to talk of traces and I
conventions. Unconditional submission to I
the laws of the land, are the only terms to I
which the people will listen. There shall I
be no abridgement of the geography of I
the Republic. There is no Territory to
spare; not an inch shaUthe.rebels sub*
tract from thfeUnion. Forthemselvealhty]
may goto China'or Airies, bat the map of
the ocean and gulf-bound Republic most
not be defaced. ' s V •/ i : * J
Mr. B »tta draws a vivid picture of .civil ]
war and its attendant honors. But dis
union and secession present a more terrible
spectacle than that which covers his can
vas. On this veiy auiyect-Forney Vi iV m :
well remarks:
We can show him a flog disgraced by treach
ery, the constituted auoiorities of the land
fleeing Dram the capital, and traitors entering
1. in triumph; a constitution so altered aato
be offensive to eveiy feeling of liberty; pi
rates swarming the seas, and bandits menacing
every frontier; slavery overflowing Uason aeo
Dixon’s line, and flooding Independence Hall;
patriotism treason, and treason power; a
country degraded in the eyes of the world,
and a citizenship which Is only *. badge of
shame; the memories of ’7O cancelled by the'
Infamies of *6l, and the teachings of our hub
crßsa*persidedby the foolishness and sin of
their children.
We could also point Hr. Bolts to the
grave of Democratic liberty and constitu
tional government Anarchy would be in
troduced among us, with despotism as its
oaly possible remedy. Wethink the se ore
worse than the evils attending the labor-oi
restoring obedience to law, and quelling
this unholy rebellion.
DO TUEI WANT PEACE 9
Is it not a fact, seen, felt, known and
acknowledged by every man In the Free
Suites, that to have peace, to secure an ob
servance of the rights of every individual
and : every B'ate as guaranteed and defined
in the Constitution, to permit the ordinary
business of the country to-go forward in
its ordinary channels, and to spread
prosperity all over this land, only
a seccssatlon of hostilities on the
part of the South and a return
of the people of that section t > their duty
as citizens and patriots, are necessary?
Answering this question as every honest
man must, we see the baselessness ol all
excuses for the unhallowed strife, Into
which mad ambition and malignant hate,
of the traitors have plunged this lately
prosperous country ? They ciy for peace,
yet will not accept it save at the price ol
the nation's dishonor. Tney entreat us to
be let alone, yet all the while wage war.
They declaim over losses and charge to our
account that which they have brought
upon themselves. T ey maintain a strug
gle for rights that have never been endan
gered; and for their honor which nothing
but their own acts l ave soiled.
Peace! Nobody wan‘s war. The North
shrinks from it with instinctive horror—
the promptings of its conscience and in
telligence—and would make any sacrifice-. |
to-day, consistent with duty to avoid it. :
But peace is not the object of the enemy.
To secure it, to be restored to their 010
condition in the Union, to the full enjoy
ment of all tbeir constitutional rights, to
th ir former status in the eyes of the world,
and to their perfect security, is easy. Tiie
way is not stopped, and the North is not
relentless. Let them lay down their arms
and resume their duties, sacrificing no pan
of their self respect nor one of their char
tered privileges, and every musket now
aimed at the South would be grounded ii
ah instant, and In a day the din of war
would cease. That they do not do this is
evidence that their cry for peace is hollow,
aid their threat of war sincere. Let them
then, have their choice. The North, thank
God 1 will accept either.
DEEDING OUT.
In the progiess of the fight with the I
rebels, the fact will be learned, sometime}- I
by bitter loss, that not enough of the offi- I
cers of the Army and Navy have gone I
South. This is a Nation whose pursuit*
have been those of peace. For the Army 1
there has been but little employment sine*
1810, and for the Navy none. Eiihei
service is full ol men of hig.t rank, matun
age, and inordinate conceit, who hav«
never smelled powder save when burned
fora salute or in target practice. It is hb< 1
probable that they will all prove to be |
heroes in the hour of trial; nay it would
be wonderful if at times the people were
not compelled to groan over the disgrace
which the incompetency of some and the
paltroonery of others will inflict upon our
arm-. We shall come back at lastafier a
little trial to younger men untrammeled by
the traditions of the pa«t and the routine ol
the oresent —men of genius whom the con
flict will raise up from the-ranks ot the peo
ple. Tney may now be attached to the army,
plodding over law-books., or following the
plow. In three months the Government
will be engaged in operations of a degree
of magnitude unknown on this continent
before; and then the lack of military ge
nus may appear. We have an abundance
of officers who can subdue Indian tribes,
*iuard a fort, or drill a battalion; but
where, if wc may except Gen. Scott, have
we the possessor of that genius which
deals with, combines, organizes and sends
to certain victory armies of 150,000 men ?
Are they not yet to be discovered ? The
country will not long endorse incompeten
cy because it is covered by grey hairs, nor
poltroonery because U was educated at
West Point

of audentßr'znodem times iras'aestroyed be
csnseofthe Injury and injustice which mm
section of it persistently attempted to inflict
upon the ether. ■ • .• . ..
It is now clearly evident that the turbulent
and ferocious elements of Northern society,
and the agrarians, chafing at being cou fined to
the Umltsof the rude North, have looked with
eager gaze towards the fruitful fields, the
magnificent territory of the Sunny South, and
dewed its possession* * The object, fits plain,
has been, and is, by the agency of the Washing
ton Government,' to -carryout tbelr unhal
lowed designer—designs utterly at Tarimce
with well regulate 1 liberty, with civiliza
tion and with religion. The Bladk •Republi
can organization being filmed, the Abolltion
ists gave It their support,- and the combined
party,’ seekirg strength; Soon found it in an al
liance wlth the men .we have spoken of, who,
seeing a' chance for seizing the reing of power,
eagerly 'avmled themselves of it. Thus was
formed the party which is no wrepresented by
the Washington Government
The Chicago platform was Vandallc in con
ception', const-action and - : design. Llncolo,
who was carried into power upon It, has fally
proved that, so fkr aa intentions go, he Is the
worthy chief of the Vandal horde. His asso
ciates in the Government, by their participa
ilon in or assent to all his Vandallc doing, and
tsoseof his subordlna*e*, are evidently willing
isstnumnls, worthy of the confidence reposed
m them by him, and those .on whose support
he jnainly relies—and who espeet him to car
ry out their hellish designs.
- There is abundant evidence, from the ap
polntuientot Carl Sdmrzto-the present time,
ia ever>’ act and deed of the Lincoln Cabinet,,
that the* c men—the terror of the peaceful,
the mors?' and the industrious members cf
society—have attained their object. They
formed an Alliance for the purpose of con
trolling it, ixnd they succeeded. Power was
gained by tiu* combined party, and they; after
a brief Etru£g.le,triuo>phattly seized tte rules.
No one canfaczubt, in vtew of events that are
daily occurring, that the men we have alluded
to—the most racUcal cf the Northern popula
tion—now moult *, control and direct the oc ion
of the Cabinet .at Washington. More than
this, they have in auaurated a reign of terror
throughout the North, and before Us absolute
decrees, all men, h igb and low, ricu and poor,
are forced to bend the knee. Not one has
strength to withstand them.
We heard but recently of as united North
to defend and presa rve the Union—now we
hear of an united Jforfh to subjugate 'the
South. -The change. Jig rapid. It shows the
increasing strength of those whose permanent
success would be Retractive of liberty.
These sre the enemies the South has to com
bat. A Southern victory at Washington
would not only strike terror into tl eir ranks,
but go far towards releasing the good and es
timauhe people of the North from a thraldom,
which has become as terrible as it is degrad
ing. We- hope to have the pleasure, ere
many days, of chronicling the glorious achieve
ment.
THE IMPORTED INDIGNATION GP GEN.
BCOTT.
Tha following from the Natchez Courier la
a finn specimen of the way in which the re
port of the resignation of Geo. Ssott was re
ceived at the South:
We have no dohbt -of Gen. Scott’s resigna
tion. We have never had a doubt of it since
it was first whispered. It was like the man
and tha hero, ana Bach we believe hfih to be.
lie nevtr could draw his sword against Vir
ginla. He won his laurels under a united
government, and now that the Union is des
troyed, he conld not tarnish them in an at
tempt to eindue a section.
We entertain no donbt that a survcilance
has been placed upon telegraphic dispatches
Irom Washington city. The press but hears
indirectly from that place. Gen. Scott’s an
nounced re slgcatlon'was beard of lost Satnr
day through p ivate hands clone, and then
only in messages-to the South, The N.rth
was net apprised-of it, whi’e the lines were
fall of each dispatches as would pander to the
fever of northern feeling. We have little
donbt that every coipUnofcation of the fact
that GineralScott had resigned was scrupu
lously suppressed as far as could be. The de
moral zing effect of the news upon the north
ern armits—-its moral influence upon the
wor’d —were too well known, and the damag
ing fact bad to be concealed.
What , meant the report of Gen. Wool’s
taking command at New York—he former
headquarters of Scott? Whd meant the si
lence of all reports from Washington?—bat
thittbe old hero had resigned, and that the
adminlslra ion had rcfnsedto accept that res-
Ignation, and had deprived him of intf rcourse
whh the world by telegraph or letter?
Tuank God! If the report we publish to
day be true, (and we behave it is so. for it is
from a reliable source), the hero of Chippewa
and Lundy’s Lane has been bla own bearer of
dispatches to Richmond, and is the guest of
a friendly governor, and not the officer of a
miserable trickster and despot.
A FORLORN HOPE.
The Richmond Enquirer, having at last real
ized the unanimity oi the North in the pres
ent struggle deceives ifeelf with the hope
that the tremendous uprising it sees is only
the result ot a tempo: a-y excitement. It
says:
The furor of war which absorbs the North
to that degree that Yankees have ceased to
calculate, will hot, and cannot be a long-lived
sentiment. Invasion of the Sonth is simply
la mode, the fashion*, the -excitement of the
hoar. Just as they rto mad&ittr Jenny Lind,
the Japanese Tommy, Kossuth, Moras Multi
c uH a , spirit tappings, and every other new
bubbi-, so they now delight In the great delir
ium of a civil war, and intoxicate their brains
with the thoughts of blood and plunder.
When all the individuals of a nation have
been occupied from their birth with ledgers
and cash books, dollars and cents, the hum
drum existence of trade or traffic, a “sensa
tion” becomes a necessity to their mental
constitution.
The tremendous outburst of ferocity that,
we witness in the Northern States, is the rep
etition of the most common traits of their
national character. It is the fashion of the
day, the humbug of the hour, and It will cease
as suddenly as it bad commenced. Like straw
on tire, the periodical sensations of the North
make a greafflime, hut sink" to the ashes and
the dust of indifference as swiftly as they
f prang. It is‘easy, and to them amusing, to
indulge their tastes of this sort In bloody talk
about invading the Sonth, In mobbing the tew
among them hitheho suspected of sympathy
with ns. In Joining volunteer companies, run
ring off to cities She Washington, by way of
Annapolis, where no brick-bats are on the
rua-r; btklathree or four the super
llaonagas will be gone, and Yankee will be
Yankee again.

Fort Homos, April S3, "801.

schooner will take letters to Boston. I have I
been so busy one way and another, that I I
have not * had a moment to write since enter- I

was very lorg (from 111*4 o’clock p. m. to 7 I
o’clock p. tn) T and as tedious a® long to most I
For want of cooks, we were not well supplied I
with eatables. The vessel was not wth bal- I
lasted, and we were overloaded and unfit for j
the voyage. Anlvlncas New Ycrk, the ves-J
eel was ballasted by filling her hold with coal, I
-and from thence on we-bad a pleasant passage. I
At New York we spent'ThurTday night oh j
board the boat at the wharf; the officers tak |
ing teaat the Astor Qonse, bv invitation of i
the keeper. Abont 4 o’clock Friday morning '
we left New York and had a pleasant passage. '
Mr. Stetson of the Astor pat on board the
boat a number of servants, and we were able
toeet a'fair supply of'food.
We arrived off this Fort at 2 o’clock Satur
day morniner, but stood off again, fearing to
go in lest it'mlgfat bo in r he baida of the se
ceders. While wo approached the coast of
Virginia, we selected abont one hundred tf
the saarp»>hoot?rs>. snd required item to be
ready at a moment’s notice, ia order to be pre
pared for any vessel lying in wait lor us. At
about 3 o’clock a ra, a steamer hove in stebt,
and Immediately threw up sigcal rockets. We
put out all the rghts in thsboat, called up the
shooters, ell of woose were loaded with
ball, end placed aguird so that tat-rest of the
mtn should not rush on deck and upset the
boat. Tbe other steamer then - put out her
lights, aud wa were somewhat auxl'n* for »
t-raa. Indeed many of .hs did not take off otr
clothes or sleep a wins that. cU.ht. We wait
ed until sunrise, when the U. S. flag was rnn
tip-on the Fort, ani we |ave it hearty cheer:,
I assure j ou; glad to see it we were, cn many
accounts.
On arrival at ths wharf, we were diaembatk
ed and tt arched into the Frrt. Gl-td enough
were the officers tnd sc idlers in the Fort.
They bad been doiujf a very jitr rioas duty,
and were exceed'nglv anxious Jietihej should

Five men can work the gun?, but there eh :uld
be seven, and there should be in suchac-se,
three distinct parties to take (heir turn" at the
guns, orrsUeis, sa they are called Octette
of the tno&t are water batteries. The danger
now would come from the laud s'fle. On teat
side there ars- no casernes, except those
which protect the gates . The F. rt is bails
on a point of .and of ascot 120 acres, and Is
connected with the main land by a long strip
of Isnd 200 feet wide and a mile and a q urter
or more long. You see.lf the place is assault
ed, the forces must come ever this strip of
aandyland- Now pointed over this strip ot
land area large number of gnus cf heavy cali
ber, and a number of merturs; and any lorces
, coming over would be exposed to a tumble
■fire, and no doubt destroyed. In addition to‘
this strip, there is another long and narrow
strip that, with a bridge, leads to Hampton.
The bridge is now down, and a picket guard
Is established on elihirside; on one silo by
the regulars, and on tee otmr ty the Hamp
ton people. Toe guard is more than a mile
out from tae Port. Ihegua d(r gains thus
far) reel that it *s very uuctraii whether they
return tothe Fort alive, when they g<"» out
there. Sxty acres are inclosed by the Fort,
the other sixty are built upon, and it is qute
a watering place. Sentinels are act all over

fortnight since.
Theri is absolutely ncthlrg; dolcg inlhc

merchants have grasped at and Sseureuihe
trade, and the some vessels ore now moving to
and from that port, thorough the Chesapeake
and Delaware Cimd..
The mechanic arts arc also paralyzed, and
untold numb rs of industrious people are nn
employed, and with oily hopes of a bitter
time. Hundreds cf workmen are sent fer
from Philadelphia, to be employ ed In the Fed
eral City ; bnt not ens has been invited from
the city in whose -streets Federal troops were
murdered.
Not a sale of real estate within the city Tra
its has been reported since the day oi the riot;
and were a forced sale to take placs to cay,
booses and lots wen'd ret realize 50per cent bi
the amount they would readily command but
a few days since. The hotel* empty; they
have always been warm sympathisers with the
secession movement, but alarming symptoms
of a tardy conversion to the Union leeliug
have now exhibited themselves. As one v*ry
exprestively remarked, ho’d ‘ got his belly fnll
ot secession, and it didn’t agree with his con*
atitutior.”
Atui'at all this, the N'rthsru Cn'ral Rail

iromO up to 20 per cent, per annum on the
mean force. This extra mortality may fce
divided into three parts;

tl A government coriia’ly supported by eigu
teen million* of people, possessed of ample
means, inspired wicaa comm:n enttusi >sm,
13 called on to suppress a rebellion got up,
amid-t a population of ttnmiiiions, meref:an
one third of whom are slaves, by a small mi
nority oi the free population, and entirely in
their Interest. The country ccntrolkd by the
com-pirat.rs baa no navy, small manufacture?,
little available wealth at home, and no credit
abroad. It appears to me that while the war
may cost the insurgents much blood, the Go
vena ut must be sadly deficient in both
statesmanship and generalship, Ir it does not
conquer a permanent peace at a very moderate
cost ofliie on its part. Whatever pr«ju*llcts
or predilections may be entertained at the
Norm, a military necessity now dictates
that property la slaves, the causa ot rebel
lion, "<u=t be sacrificed forthesaivationof the
: country. Sach sacrifice involves nothing car
barons, wasteml of life, cr beyond. the conet>

upon sonthtm foil at two or three comiaat.d
iag points, sufficient force to ensure ta« pro
tection oi life, liberty and all other species of
property to all the population who will stand
oy their allegiance to the or re
turn to it. The peculiar mstituV.on of the
South renders it impossible fji lis ex'empor
iz-d government to concentrate a lores suf
ficient to parry a blow of this sort, and it
mnstnece tariiy nuke the best terms it can
—ameng which will doubtless he a stipulation
for the extinguishment of that claim of prop
erty in man which caused the war.
** the Montgomery coveromenr, !cven if it
hid full time to organize, consolidate and
avail Itself of ail possible resources, won : d
only be strong for aggressive war on a w. aU
people. If the British governuiect. at the
time of our revolution, had lad no tlavt-s o:
its own and only the Slave Sates to subdue,
I think the forces it lauded on Southern soil
would have done the work without eutle’iog
aa extra mortality of more thin one p t ctnt.
And while oar government can have two hun
dred thousand troops f.r th; aruilcg, I do not
believe it need fairifiee one per c*.nt, of i<s
army, or mors than the time between this usd
.Inly 4*h, to end me question and seal the ptr
pa uvty of the Union.
•* Ciscre has been daugf r that the con
spiracy would gain some Impor ant advantage
over onr government wr.ilc it wa« in a dis
seised state; bat that Is passed. Now I can
liken the war only to that between the en
raged bull and the locomotive. The natural
brute is sure to get the wotst of it, while with
caution and a cow-catcher, the artili.ial will
convert Its antagonist into harmless b-ef with
notca f erial damage tolteeK
*‘Froir a l these considerations I am in
clined to think the dances are in luvor 01 the
companies not losing by granMig mui'aty
permits at two per cen f . Bur. their position
is so strong that Itbiok they can sheuider

Tlie Capture ft the 450 U. S. Troops
1U I(IX«B
Wa copy from the New Orleans Delia of the
3d lust. the following account of the capture
of the U. S. troops who w*re on the point of
leaving ladlanola for the From llii-s
account, it appears that by the ail of eight
thousand Texans,— not eight hundred, as staled
in our despatch—and the Irta.hery cf a por
tion of the officers, these valiant Texans wire
enabled to make prisoners of 450 unarmed
United States soldiers. A glorious deed for
the pen of history to record:
Passengers who arrived In this c!tr last
evenlrg, from GUveston via Berwick’s Bay
and the Opelousas r.-i!road, brought the cheer
ing news that CcL Van Uom had succeeded
in making prisoners of the United S ??t8
troops lately reported a* qaartered at Green
Lake, near IrdUucla. A* last accounts they
had taken possession of the city ol ladlanoja,
o! a quantity of arms deposited there, and of
two schooner?, upon which they contempla
ted lenvixg the Stats. These troops cocslv.ed
of Cotnpiiiies A, P and I, of the 31 Infantry,
Companies C and K of the 1-t. lofoniry, and
Companies A and D of the Bth latantry—com
piis cg in all four hundred aid fifty men,
unier the command of Sibley The
total number of officers was between thirty
five and forty.
Colonel Van Dom, who had undertaken the
expedition against is reported to have
rastda forca of 8300 moulted men witbiu
five days after his arrival in Texas for the pur
pose. With these he marched against tb*»-

xli. on the two schooners. Fortunate!?, how
ever, they found these vessels too email for
their nuniber.3, an<l Tpfty were eent back to
proride further meins or conveyance, and be
fore these cculd accomplish their object, they
were captuied, and as it was learned that the
schooners w*ra to wait outside the su? for
them, CcL Vaa Dorn resolved to go in pur
suit. He chartered tbne steamersfi.r tae
purpose, and end leg guard?, wi’h ta l escf
canon oa them, to protect his mei against
the musketry 6t the United States troep?, he
went after them, soon came up with teem,
and called on them to surrender. After soma
little parley, the hop=lee*nca of
reliance, the demand was complied wi’h,
and they were triumphantly carried to Xn
cianola. The steamahlp General Rusk, with
three pieces of artillery, aad 122 men under
Major Nichols, had also been sent ream! to in
ti them. H;ra their arms were taken
of by CcL Yw Pvip. Iteqflisoa
were put upon parol?, but we have the pleas
ure of rcvuiulaj Majors Lgrkio, Saiiih
and Hassells, cf Virginia, at epee resigned
thelf comtnUeions.
' Ibe men-were tendered their choice cf Join-
In* ibe Confederate 4.txd.?, or cf giving tteir
parole not to wish oar eneruis-* daring
the war. It was not known which tbeywonld
choose, bat it was beiiere tint U wonldbe the
fo riser.
It is eearesly necessary to slats that private
property was respected throughout the affair.
A report rea:h-.s ns through tbscama chan*
nelasthe foregoing: intelligence, t.«at seven
companies, comprising ahvnt firs hundred
men, from Forts Bliss, Lancaster, and ethers
in the West, were oa their way thence, and
bad entrenched themselves at Fort Clark with
the intention of showing fight. The whole
country, however, is aroused, and they will
doubtless have changed this resolution ere
this, if they reaßy ever made It.
