Postmaster-General Reagon has advertised for proposals for furnishing the Confederate States Government with stamped envelopes, marking and rating stamps, mail sacks and keys, wrapping paper, twine and sealing wax, mail bags, postage stamps, and printing Post- olfioe blanks, and paper for the same. The bids must be made to the Department by 3 o'clock, P. M., on the 1st of May next The stamped envelopes are to bo of three sises: noto, letter and official; and the rates to be stamped on them are," two cents,” "five cents," " ten cents," and " twenty cents.” The postage stamps are to be of the same de nominations—the sheets to be well gummed and perforated. The following clause in some of the adver tisements would indicate that the Department will assume control of all tha mail service in the South on the 1st of July next, and dismiss the United States Government from its pres ent disagreeable service among us: "Bidders will state the earliest period at which they will be able to furnish supplies of the article bid for, in the ovent of the contract l>eing awarded to them, as it will have an im portant bearing upon the awards. But bids will not be entertained which fix a period be yond the 1st of July next for the delivery of supplies.” If any of our readers should wish to bid for any of the service, they can obtain full infor mation by applying to the Postmaster-General at Montgomery. »ucr< oftbe ABiei-frA lean Whaling Wilp Superior.

On tho 12th Sep. I860 the vessel aifherjd *t Tert- ■ury Island : and was engaged in faking wood and water on the 18th, 14th and Its4k. On tho night of tho 10th, nioo of (ho orew went aeboro and were murdered. The natives then came In great numbers in canoes. About 150 want on board tha Towel, and made a rush on (ha crew, who were all on deck, exoept four, and murdered them instantly, with toraahawki. Two escaped by jumping down the hatchway, and these, with the other tour, were finally taken prisoner* after a capitulation by which their lives were spared. There wore thirty two souls on board when she anchored—all of whom perished, except the six. The ship was then fired and quickly consumed with alt her •tores. She had 150 barrels of sperm aad 150 of right whale oil on board. The oause of this murder by the natives has not been ascertain ed. Mr. Breckinridge. We have received the speech of ex Vice President Breckinridge before the Kentucky Legislature, on the 2d instant. We have not had tirao to peruse it carefully ; but we see that he advooates the Border Slave States to offer to the General Government the Critten den Compromise as an ultimatum. If it be rejected, he is in favor of Secession and unit ing with tho Confederate States. lion. Wm. T. Avery. This gentleman, who so ably represented the I Oth Congressional districtof Tennessee in the U. 8. Congress for the last two terms, has written a letter in response to the solicitations of many, asking him again to become a candidate, de clining to do so, on the ground that ha cannot consent to represent his State and people in a Black Congress, under the administration of a Black Exaoutive. Ha thinks it is the duty of Tennessee to units z. ones rrith the Ccafei-r ate States, and not further jeopard her institu tions by adheriog to her enemies. He utterly refuses to be the medium through which a alaveholding constituency shall be represented at on Abolition Court. Teuuesaee. On J/onday, the 18th .March, Hon. James H.

On Satuadey lMt, two young mao, who en tertained a reciprocal hostility towards each other, met, drew their "pocket companions,” and exchanged shots, neither of which took effect. They then closed—each nelug the butt of his pistol upon the bead of his antagonist, until both were soundly belabored. They were separated, and an examination of the matter was had yesterday in the Mayor’ Court, when they were fined $50 each, for the pleasures they bad enjoyed in their rencoun 8. Day before yesterday, a couple of females bad a meeting by appointment, at Cypress Pond, near the city, to indulge in a fight. One of them sent a challenge to the other to meet her and fight, whieh was promptly accepted, and they met; but just thon the police inter* fered and broke up the programme, much to the vexation of some who bad gooe out to wit ness the "set to,” but much to the gratifies tion of one of the parties, who had privately given intimation of the affair to the police Verily, the world moves ! ^5i,Gcn. Lane, just before leaving New York, on his way home, wrote to a friend in Wash ngton as follows: " I am out of politics, but 1 shall continue U stand by tbe right. I will urge the Democra cy of Oregon to adopt the Constitution of the Confederate States as their platform.” W^Wesee it stated, in a letter written by the Rev. Dr. D. W. Cahill in New York, and ad dressed to the people of Ireland, on the sub ject of our present national troubles, that the Irish servant girls of New York, Brooklyn, and a few of the adjacent cities, during the year 1860, sent home to their parents and relatives in Ireland, from tho savings of their scanty wages, £530,000, or $2,750,000.

The Commissioners of the Confederate States are assured that no hostile stop is contemplated at Fort Pickens. The officers of tbe United States steamer Powhattan, whieh has just arrived from Vera Crux at New York, bare been reordered to her. Bhe is to be put in commission and sent to sea immediately. As she is not in a condition to keep at sea for more than three months, with out extensive repairs of her hull and angine, It is presumed that she is to be employed on tbe coast—perhaps to bring troops from Fort Sumter, or to join the squadron off Pensacola. The new Republican United States Treasurer, wishing to distinguish himself by something in the sensitive line, made th* wonderful dis covery that some United Slates Bonds were not in his offico, and therefore, had the feet heral ded North that kis sterling ability had detect ed another affair in the nature ol a spoliation •f tbe Treeaury.

Pear Father: I arrivsd at home on the 15th instant, and found .several letters from you awaiting my r«tpm. You naturally expect roe to say something of odr campaign, what we have done, and what we have failed to do. After leaving Fort Belknap, we'traveled up the Brazos until we got into Knox and Baylor oounties. These are oalled counties. They on ly have the name—being laid off by the Leg islature, and not having uvoul in them, and al most uninhabitable—white men rarely ever go so iar. From here we went North, heading the Little Wichita, until we struck the Big Wich ita; thence, we went West and North-West, until we struck the Pease River. We went to the head of this river, and got in a very large Indian trail. We trailed them North, until we found that they had gone across to Red River and the Canadian, and we had to abandon the trail, on account of the condition of our horses es and the extreme improbability of finding them (the Indians) by following an old trail. We then started South from tbe bead of the Pease River—heading Big Wichita—and trav eled on an arm of the "staked plaint” for a day, headed all the forks of the Brazes, and discov ered one fork of that river that was never set down on any map, and was not found by Cap tain Marcy, when he traveled in that country to Harvey and define, by metes and bounds, the line between Texas and the United State*. We called tb»t the Badgsr Fork of the Bra the boys killed a badger on the plains and eat it on this river, or rather, I should say, branch. After heading the Bm/.os, we went to the head of the Colorado. Hero we found the most In diaus. If our horsed had been in good plight, might have killed a good many of them; but it was otherwise, and we could do but little.— Before we got to Colorado, aud while we were still on the bead of the Wichita, our company killed three Indians. When we got to the Brazos, the most of the command turned back for home. Some of our company left us, and wc were reduced to thirty- five men. We pushed on, however, to the head of the Colorado, and found Indians—lots of them. We chased a company of them with some squaw and children, for eight or ten miles—got their pack horses— 7 In number— and all their dried buffalo meat. W'e broke them up completely. fortunate that wc got their meat—if w had not, we were iu a line way to starve. W had done withont bread for nearly a week and half—had only four little slices of lmcon i>er day to the man, with a little soup and coffee. You imagine our joy at capturing three or fou bushels of line dried buffalo meat, under th circumstances. The same evening we robbed those Indians, e saw one Indian alone on a mountain, spying us out, to ascertain the position of our camp, ami our numbers, as I supposed, for the purpose of giving us a light; and although he had two miles the start, four or five of ns chased him, but could not catch him, (though he had hidden his mule iu a ravine, and was a-foot.) We suc ceeded in getting his mule, saddle, Ac. from him. >w knew they would try to stampede and aud steal our horses. Before night, three comrades aud myself lay In ambush for An equal number of Indians, and I believe wc could have killed them, had it not been for the picquet- guard, who halloed to the company ho loud as to turn the Indians from our place of ambuscade. In the night, about 12 o’clock, twenty or thirty of the devils tried to gallop into our camp and stampede our horses; but when they got within 60 or 70 yards of our camp, the guard commenc ed firing upon them. Everybody was aroused and out, and we gave them a pretty warm Areas they ran by us. They shot at us a few times with rifles and pistols. Jt was dark, bat I could not help dodging ns 1 heard their bullets whistle by. No ono was hurt. We may have wounded some of the Camanches. They got so plentiful here ns to come around our camp at night and bark and howl like wolves. Our horeses were now broken down. We could not chase them and were compelled to turn back. We now took down the Colorado to Fort Chadbourne. Some of the boy»’ horses gave out, and they would shoot them to keep the Indians from getting them. All whose hon es could carry them at all, had to walk a great deal. Living on meat without bread, makes one very weak. Add to this blistered heels, sore muscles of the legs from walking, and worn oat boots, and wheu you think of all this at once, you may have a remote idea of the hardships we had to undergo in scaling the Colorado hills on foot, leading our horses. It was very hard ; but we were all willing to endure it. We all got very ragged, "tattered and torn,” greasy, dirty and black. You never would know me to see me in my ranger's attire. From Chadbourne we came home. At Merid ian, in Bosque county, I weighed 152 pounds— fat and hearty. When I got home my friends hardly knew me. They gave us all a hearty welcome. 1 have given you a general outline of our route, and a little of what we did. I wm in several chases besides those mentioned. I can not descend to particulars now. I kept a jour nal of our travels the most of the trip. I Lore seen a great deal of Texas—a great many curi osities of natural history. We sickened at the sight of buffalo before we got through their range—myriads upon myriad# of them, ante lopes, numerous, woivoe by millions, pan ther#, wild cats, kiotoe, prairie dogs, eivet oats, badgers, ravens, and God knows what else. Tho prairie dogs kill out the grass where they live, and their towns are sometimes twenty mile* through them. We had to eat them Who# our meat wm falling short. When we got back where wo found plenty to oat, I never saw men oat so much like dogs in*tny life.

Letter From Hon, W. R. W. Cobb. Wasuinqtom, March 22, 1861, Dear N/r:—Having nrrived in this place af ter spending several days in Virginia, and yesterday in Richmond and in the Convention, you will very naturally inquire what is the news? In relation to tbe action of the Vir ginia Convention, from the most reliable in formation, she will not now secede, nor will she force that question at this time upon the people. The spirit of secession and a desire to be with the South is daily gaining strength, nnd it is only n question of time when she will unite her fortunes with her Southern ee- oeding sisters. Tbe manner of bringing this about I cannot demonstrate in this brief note. But, eay you, I want to know what the Fede ral Government is going to do ? To answer it mi st also be conjectural—but from the most reliable sources to which I have scores for in formal ion, I am led to believe the General Government will neither attempt to retake any oj the Forts nor eollecl the revenue by force in any of the seceding States, nor will she attempt to coerce the South in the first particular— nor baa she sent men to reioforen the forts she holds in tbe seceding States Further, tbe disposition to avert bloodshed le and has beeu growing among all parlies for the last three weeks, and I might say for lbs last sixty dsys. Fort Sumter will bo given up, aod as to tbe receiving of oor Commissioners, with caution nnd prudence, (whioh they are fully oapable of exercising,) they uiU be received. Tbe chances for nil these things are daily increas ing. Then much depends upon the prudence of our men, and that no overt act shall be com mitted that would have a tendency to bring about a hostile collision. I shall leava for home in ten or twelve days, and in the mean time pick up all tbe news that will enable as, if possible, lo arrive at a*proper solution of the various vexed questions (hot now agitate the people of our country. Ao to our Govern meat being acknowledged by foreign powers, it is understood that the French nnd Spanish Governments will, and tbe British Government is not expected to do so immediately. Rus sia, Sweden, Denmark and the Italian Con fed eracy are all favorably inclined. I hasten to olose. Yours truly, W. R. W. COBB. VcRsel Fired Into. Yesterday afternoon about three o’clock, while tbe wind wm blowing heavy from the Northeast, a sohooner crossed tho bar and was beating up the Channel abreast of the beach of Morris’ Island, when she having attracted the attention of some of the sentinels, one of tho batteries fired several blank cartridges at her for the purpose of bringiug her to, which the Captain of the vessel paid no Attention to, but kept ou his course, when a shotted gun was discharged, the ball from whioh it is supposed struck her in tbe bulwarks, when she put about and proceeded down near tbe bar a«d anchored. During the firing it is said that tbe schooner displayed ibe "United States ensign,” but as her character and not her nationality was in question, she should immediately have come to and held intercourse with the commander on the Island, instead of acting in a manner that produced the impression that she intend ed to force a passage. Soon after tbe firing took plaoe, a boat from Fort Sumter visited Morris’ Island, sent by Mqor Anderson to make enquiry into the oause of tbe vessel hav ing been shot at, and also to request permis ■ion for his boat to proceed to the schooner; and it is reported that the boat did go to tbe suspicious vessel, but of this we have oo cer tain information. About six o’clc ok Inst evening the stenmor Gen'l Clinch, with Lieut. T, B. Huger, wm sent from the City to look after the schooner and investigate her oharocier, but after pro ceeding some distance down the Channel they were unable to discover anything of her, and suppose that she had gone to sea. As the wind was blowing very strong from the NortheMt she will, no doubt, take a Southerly course.—Charleston Courier, 4th in stant.
