Tba aama alao aaya it ia ruportad that tha President of the United States and bis Oebl- net have determined to take immediate cod vigorous measures for the enforcement of the laws at all hasaMtf. ’ The Government has chartered the ateamara Baltic cud Arid to carry troopa under sealed orders. The Baltic will carry Barry’s company of Flying Artillery and 90 men; and the Ariel will carry seven or eight companies of Infan try and Marines. These vessels will sail on Sunday next. The frigate Powbaftan goes In sea to mor row morning, fully equipped and provisioned, and will probably take three companies of troops. The impression at the Navy Yard, is that Forts Fumter and Pickpns are both to be rein- forced. The Revenue Cutter Harriet Lane sailed to- day. A company of 100 man on Governor’s Is land has received marching orders. Other companies will speedily follow. There are now over 2,600 troops at the dif ferent stations In this port, (oontinnes the N. Y. Poet.) The Commercial says that a committee of leading politicians have had an interview with the President and Secretary of Stats, and were assured meat positively that the Prsaideat contemplates no hostile movements, and that he should not attempt to collect tbe revenue, for tbe simple reason that Congress had with held from bias tbe pewer to do so. The steamship Atlantic has also been char tered and cleared this afternoon for Brazos Santiago, Texas, with provisions and stores. Tha Express says that Texas is the point where tbe troops will be landed, and they are to be seal out at tha request of Gov. Houston, to repel the Indians in that State. Letter from Fort Sumter. Buffalo, April 4.—The Commercial Adver tiser publishes a latter from private Johnson McNeil, which states that Major Anderson’s command have enough to eal and drink for four months, but that fuel is scarce. Nobody ever knew how many men we have, and it is all uonsense to talk about sending men and supplies. We are all right, if old Lincoln only will have tbe backbone to stand by us.

M. Denver, March 25th.—The daily yisld of gold in the mines is very rapidly increasing. Pbe mills are nearly all getting to work, many of them with the now gold saving process.— The population of the Blue Ritn slope has doubled in the last month. The district will be a great theatre of gold mining operations. The road over tbe snewy range between the South and Middle Forks, is open for pack an imals but cot for wagons. Emigrants from the States are beginning to arrive. The weath - er ia very fine. tfST Washington correspondent of the Bal timore Sun, says : Col. Mann, one of the com missioners of tbe Confederate Slates to Europe fer the purpose of applying for their recog nition by European governments, was ap pointed during Mr. Fillmore's adminstration as special commissioner from this government to Hungary to reeognise the revolution and tbe independence of Hungary si a dt facto government. Under bis instructions from Mr. Webster, be was authorised to recognise the revolted Slate, and would have done so could it bavo maintaided a d*/ado government for thirty deye. But Russian intervention suppressed the revolt aad defeated the object of Col. Mann’s mission. As an evidence, however, of tbe praetice of this government in reaard to the subjeot of recognition of re volted provinces, he can show bis instructions relative to the Hungarian revolt. But the most effective argument in favor of recognition of the seceded States will.be their adoption of the principles of free trade, in opposition to the avowed high protective ta riff whiob went into operation yesterday.

Merer, ainee tba rush of freight, has there bath so mooh re ceived in one day. All tba Railroads are work ing day aad aignt to expedite tba forwarding of freight, and If parties below suffer from de tention of goods, it certainly Is not the fault of the Railroad men of Atlanta.

No less than 6,o0l) sacks hare passed to-day.— The price, howerer, cannot Tary much, as par ties have but a small margin on present fig ures. which are U^9B, aa par quantity and quality.

Extremes are fO I0(&$6 40. Lard Is To store in fair supply and good de mand, at figures varying from 121@1S. Tha stocks of Produoe are large, and induce ments to purchasers good. Many are already convinced of tbe folly of sending West for small lota, and are replenishing at Atlanta.— Others will find it out at tha olosa of tha sea son. All dutiable good* are being stopped at thia point. Therefore, parties should provide for this who sre expeetiog goods froiu tbe North- West, and via tbe Western A Atlantic Railroad.
