The Lincoln administration, while protesting that it will not institute hostilities, is doing everything that it dates agriint our government and people. "Whilst declaring for peace,- it prepares, with all its power, for war. It is treacherous in its policy, and false in itsdechi'. rations. No confidence can be placed iii an ads ministration that resorts to lying to deceive the South. Our Commissioners at Washington take the word of Sewti’-d Slid Lincoln, indsliul their eyes to their acts. "What hope can they have that Lincoln and Seward will] recognise the existence of the government of the Gon federal. Stales, when agents and ministers have- been sent to every leading power in Ell rope; to ptrtest against a recognition ? Seward demands of European powers that they shall not treat with the Confederate States. Will he treat with them ? Is not that demand of it> self sufficient cause for war ? — Gov. Brown. We liave received a copy of the patriotic addresti of Gov; Brown, to the Regiment and Battallibn at Macon. The address does simple justice to the distinguished speaker. Ilis stand point is that of a true Georgian; devoted to her interests and that of the Confedeiate States.— When it is rcriictribercd; that Gov. Brown has been spoken of for the Presidency; and that by thousands, his endorsement and eulogies of President Davis, Messrs. Stephens and Toombs, I who have also been spoken of for the Same sition, make us rejoice, that the Governor of Georgia occupies a platform high above the party tricks and politicians, who forgot country’ in the aim to promote self. We commend this address, which will appear in our next, tc the careful perusal of all our cit’zens. i«l ♦ • ♦ CMa Fort Pickf.xs to be Reinfo-ced—Boo Mln Under Way.-—Wc find the following in the New York Express of Monday, which, as it is stated “authoritatively,’’ is worthy of attention.

AVashinuton, April s.—An informant who is usually reliable, states that the Administra tion intends concentrating all the available military and naval forces of the country at ■ TortngaS and Key West; tlieneb troops Will , Be supplied to Fort Pickens, and if that point i is attacked, troops are to be taken there from ■ Tortugas in order te rbsi&t the attack. It is j believed that there will be a sufficiency of warlike movements to Caiisc. the Border States to join the Southern Confederacy, as the Gov ernment cannot now recognize its independ ence by treaty. . Another inlormant states that a part of the plan is to blockade the Mississippi, retake Ship Island; and perhaps other stations in the South. Another informant states that a large amount of army and naval stores, including seven mountain howitzers, have been shipped hence, by express, to Fort Hamilton. These move ments look to land as well as to sea operations. Nine Republican Governors mot in conclave here last night, but the result of the meeting ih unknown. Several agents of New York bankers here telegraphed homo to day that a collision is inevitable. The whole city is in a State of intense excite ment. The Express says that it is supposed, in well informed quarters, that Texas is the point where the troops will be landed, and that they a‘ 0 to be sent out at the request of Gov. Hous ton; tc repel the Indians in that State. The Commercial says that a committee of leading Virginia politicians have had an in> tervicw with the President and Secretary of State, rtnd wort assured most positively that the President cdntcinplates nd hostile moves itient, nnd that he should not attempt to col lect the revenue for the simple reason that Congress had withheld from him the power to do so'. The steamship Atlantic has also been char tered, artd cleared this afternoon for Brazos Santiago, Texas, with provisionsand stores. Montgomery, April 5.—A despatch from the CdirimiSsioncrs to Presdcnt Davis, says orders have been given for the reinforcement of Fort Pickens ! Two hundred Georgia troops will arrive to night, en route for Pensacola, and 200 dn each : Succeeding tram. The army will Be completed in a few days; NeW YorF; April 6.—Tl‘e steamer Illinois lias been charteered by tile Gdverrlment. Slfc sails tti-day br tb'-morrbw; with sealed orders. Aii abundance of army stores were shipped last night, on board the Atlantic; Site is now about sailing with 900 men. A detnehment of Artillery with four guns and forty men, camo up to this city to-day from Fort Hamilton. Bxtrauts fro«i> Air. Wigfall’s Speech. But as things are; it is useless, I am satis fied, to talk about a reconstruction. This Fed, oral Govhrm“ent is dead; The only question ' is, whether we will give it :i decent; peaceable Protestant burial, or whether we shall have an Irish Wake nt the grave [Laughter.] Now, 1 am opposed to lighting; find would pre fer a peaceable burial : but if the Republican Senators insist upon fighting, aiid they can get the backbone again put into their Presi dent elect; and c:in gee, .Mr. Chase reinstated |in the Cabinet, from which he lias been ex j polled, I do not know but that we shall have Ito fight. It their President has recovered from that “artificial pan c’’ under which lie was I laboring n short time ago, under the Liemen- j ant General rtnd {lie Secretary of War—l be- I lieve they advised him to be trightened; so say j the Republican papers in defense of him; it wrts done by the card; he goes by the plat : foriii—if they can rccovef - him from thb artifi cial fright under whic.li he was laboring and get him to take tile Chicago platform fair find square, we shall have a fight; otherwise tve shall not. I think myself it would be for the benefit of both sections that we should ndt have an Irish wake at our funeral; but that is for tl e North to decide, and not for us. Be lieving—no, sir, not believing, but knowing —that this Union is dissolved; never, never to be reconstructed upon any terms—not if you were to hand ns blank paper, and ask us to write a constitution; would we ever again be confederated wi.h yon. Your people have been taught to bate u-: people have been taught to hate our institutions: your people 1 have lichn taught to believe that you ar<> J’har- I isces; that your philacteiien aie till!' thrtt you are entitled to the high places in the Syna gogues’ and you conic and thrust yourselves i into our presence, and thank Go l before our ! faces that you arc not like us poor publicans, ' and your company has become distasteful to ■ us ‘ ycu tell us that ours is distasteful to yon ; “grant it, then we will separate;’’ and you sqv we shall not. Then we are going to make the experiment, and we will trust in Providence. — Napoleon Bonaparte, who was a wise man, i once said that he trusted in Providence, but he said that he found that Providence,always t ok sides with the artillery. M e nave taken the forts nnd guns, which you complain of, because we think Providence again will takesides with the I artillery; and we have boon securing a good deal of it. [Laughter.] Then, knowing that the Union is dissolved, that reconstruction is impossible, I w mid, myself, had I been consult ed by the Union-savers, have told them that Union-saving was impracticable, but that peace able separation was practicable. I would have advised that you should treat these sovereign Stites with the courtesy, at least,that you treat ed Brigham Young. When he threatened to set up for himself, yon sent commissioners there; but, when sovereign States assume the right of self-government., you send the bayonet and the broad sword. That is the difference in the manner in which you treated these two questions. I suppose commissioners, in a few days, wiJ be here from the Confederate States. They were not sent by iny advice. To be very can’ did with you, I do not think there is any Gov ernment here with which tiiey could treat.— [Laughter.] You ha-e a sort of de facto, cer tainly a revdlu tic nary Government [laughtci] that time and acquiescence on the part of the States may give the character of legitimacy to; but surely llrt?- not that rttrtnip now. One of the partners having withdrawn from the part nership dissolves the firm. It is true til it. if tlie remaining partners go on, and still use the partnership name, by implication they are supposed to consent, acquiesce in the with drawal; rtnd to have reformed another. In the course of time, seven of your partners having withdrawn; if the rest shall acquiesce in the action of this revolutionary, irregular, wrong ful, de facto Government that is about id in augrt.rrtte a President to-day, acqiiiesccnce mav give legitimacy to it, and we may proper ly treat with you. [Laughter.] I judge that i’residnnt Davis, however, will waive the little irregularities, [laughter,] and probably send commissioners here, and then you will have the choice of peace or war; and that is a niatter that you had better well consider; Turn yoitr ' backs upon those commissioners, attempt to re- i inforec the forts and retake those which we ! now have; attempt to collect the revenues, or I do any other manner or matter of thing that ! J .- 11 denies to the free white men, living in thbSe , sovereign States, the right which they have asserted of self-government, and you will have War, and it will Be war iii fill itn stern realities. I say this not in bravado, but I say it because I know it and yon know it. —«gg*o Kansas Sen-vToi!.—- Marcus J. Parrott will probably be one of the United States Senators from the new State of Kansas. His qualifica tions for the station may be found in the fol lowing paragraph from the Republican paper in Leavenworth : The assertion that Mr; Parrott counseled co n . cession and conciliation while in Washington is an infamous lie, and we dare them to prove it. Mr. Parrott attended the caucus of Republican Congressmen, and voted ilgainst every metisnre which favored lowering the Republican stand ard or backing down from the Chicago plar form. Mr. Dayton, Minister to France nor his Secretary of Legation, Mr. Pennington, knows a word of French. As goverment docs Hot provide ah interpreter, they will have to provide one for themselves or remain dummies at the most loquacious court in the world. — Dr. Dimitry, Minister to Nicarauga asks a recall. 'No. 22 Photograph of the Southern People.—The New York Times gives the following descrip : tion of the people of the South—which was, no doubt, intended to bo very “ binding The remorseless census, to begin with, tells us that more than two of the fonrnrllibns oV ci whom .Jeff. Davis rules are negroes, who are denied even the first rights of rtich; to say nothing of the immunities of gentlemen. Os the remaining white fraction, the traveled wmld is all too familiar wilh the sneaking phi;} and shuffling shanks of the Carolina clay-cat er; tlie de.ath’s-liead and bow-legs of the'Geor gia corn-cracknr, the brutish look of tlie Flori da Minorcan, nnd the piratical visage of the Gulf State ruffians ( who arc now the ruling i class there, ever to write them down a® genteel above all who dwell in America. Neither will the towering gentility of the few thousands who constitute the rampart plantocracy, be con ceded by mankind generally • while the shop keeper man down there lias rriiich the char.ne" tcristics of that stylo the world over; still less will it be conceded that the negro ov erseer; negro traders, negro aiictionecs, or the other white odds nnd ends of a nngro commu nity, are entitled to rank foremost of the gen tlemen cf the world.

So the seceding States rt.re likely to do with the free States. The continued presence of Major McCol lough, the Texan Ranger, in Richmond, Va., viewed in conjunction with the call for a Se cession Convention thereon the 16th inst., it is said, excites much interest in Washington, especially in army circles. - - - • ti— • ♦EP»» The Savannah Republican of the Gth says: A private letter received in this city yesterday, from a prominent citizen of Charlestown, says : ‘Things are coming to a crisis in the harbor.

Little chaps weighing about forty pounds (a girl and boy) sold for up war d of 61200 eacli, while fellows from 18 to 30 years old (field hands) brought from 81400 to SI7OO.
