BY TELEaRAPH. GEN. 8Q0TX HAS RESIGNED. Virginia with the South Heart and Hand. Montgomery, Ala., April 19.—A prolonged Cabinet session, on Virginia affaire, was held to day. President Davis has received official notifica tion of the secession of Virginia, and that she is in ontlro accord now with her Southern sister*. Vice President Stephens leaves this evening for Richmond as Commissioner from this gov ernment to Virginia. Gen. Winfield Scott has resigned his position ns head of the United States Army, and tender ed his services to his native State—Virginia. ^Special Despatch to tho Savannah Morning News.] Gen. Scott's Resignation Confirmed- Montgomery, April 19, P. M.—No official in formation has been received by government of Gen. Scott’s resignation. There are, however, despatches hero to that effect. The Loan of inn Confederate States.— Tho Montgomery Advertiser of Thursday says : Wc are pi cuffed to learn that so great hat been the demand for the 85,000,000 loan offered yes terday, that the President baa concluded to offer tho whole 815,000,00} at once. Charleston alone took two of, the first five million offered, and capitalists lu New Orleans naked for at least aa much a* five million themselves. This is n g66irfiuirt ; iUlou. Our people have a confidence iu the BlftouUv of our vigorous little Republic, which the • arbitration of the sword cauuot shake. W.i have udt as yet learned how much of the tuuhori/.ed loan lias been taken In this City. The books will still be kept open at tho Central Dank to-day. Capitalists con now hate an opportunity lo allow the faith that is in them. doparted, and beg leave to present, as one of his relatives, my own warm appreciation of your sympathy and consideration. Attacking Northern Cities.—We trust, aaya the Kicli.'iioiul Despatch, that the South will soon be in a conditlou to not aggressively na well aa defensively. Wu have no idea on the fuec of the earth of standing still nna being butchered like sheep in a slaughter bouse. As soon aa possible a blow should lie struck at the populous hives oil the border, ami privateers should be fitted out to hnrriiss tin? enemy’s commerce. Tho sooner this Is done the better. Already, the Southern army, at tho different forts aud stations, numbers about thirty-five thousand men. With the nedossion of the Border States, this can be swelled, without an effort, to a hundred thous and of the bravest troops in the world. We shall then sco whether tho game of invasion which Abraham Lincoln has inaugurated is not one w hich two can pi ty ut. Mails to tub South to bb Cut Or*.—It ftp- ears from tho speech of Mr. Lincoln to the Trgluia Commissioners on Saturday, that, tit addition to whatever military or naval arrange ments the President may make under present circumstances, he is determined to stop tho mall service to tho Receded States. This mea sure will undoubtedly do serious damage to tho South, and to the North also, it will cut off all eotmneroi&l and social connections between the two divisions of tho country; it will be a second step towards establishing ft condition of civil war, and will widen the breach between tho North and the South.—Jv. T. Herald, It will not be tho first time the insane Black Republicans have bit off their noses to spite their faces. We can do ns well without the mails as the Nortli can, and perhaps a little bet ter. slons, has preserved the peace of tho city when tho civil arm was paralyzed Whoever goes to war, somebody must stay at home to put down coercion, riot and insurrection whlota might possibly ~ arise; and tho City would repose much more confidence in the Bcvt-ulb Regiment, or other wttt drilled Regiment. or ibe Flrsl Tbo Syracuse Courier state* that * large for. tlon of.the Democrat* there are opposed to coercion, sail consider tho true policy of the I From the Atlanta Cosmumwealth.)

Commodore McIntosh was to most of u* personally unknown ; but history has recorded lu* public cureeri aud hi* grateful couuirymcn are rnidy to award that meed of praise which 1* the just tribute to merit. By refer mice to an excerpt of his life, we find that he entered the naval service of the United States in September, 1811, nnd for ft period of forty-nine year* c<nUiuucd in tho active exercise of different vocations, passing through the va- grades ol service, Midshipman, Passed Midshipman, Master, Lieutenant, nnd Captain, as rapidly a*- the regulation* of the naval service would admit. Although never engaged III ac tual hostilities (If wo except the first period of Initiation into service) we find him, durlnga reign of general national prosperity, employed in offi ces of tniportaqi trusts aud great responsibility, requiring the egercipe of sofind Judgment and a character distinguished fbr fearlessness of dan ger. In 1821 he was attached to an expedition under Capt. Kerney, for the exteriniuatlou of pirates on the West India const. In 1851, after ecolving his commission with the fauk of Cap- aln, he was ordered to the command of the U. 8. frigate Congress, attached to the Brazil squad- con, under the command of Commodore Me- Keever. Goon after this, he was removed to the command of tho naval station at Sackett’s har bor, where lie rcinuiuud until 1857, when, by or der of the President of the United 8tatcs, ho be came flat- officer ol the home squadron. This command was conferred at a time when British fleets tu Southern waters became exceedingly in solent and troublesome, by attempting to board nnd search American vessels; but by prudence, Judgment, dignified courtesy and firm determi nation, he vindicated uqd maintained tho posi tion his country had ever taken agaiust the right of search, and received for his conduct her un qualified approbation. Subsequent to ibis period Commodore McIn tosh wu* placed m command of the navy yard at Pensacola, iu which station lie expired on the first of Sept., i860. Here closed Ids earthly career, almost up to the point of the dissolution of the old govern ment, watch he htui always served with fidelity und houor, and upon the eve of a great aud ino- niciituous revolution. Had Commodore Mcluloslt survived to behold the light of this day, H is uot difficult to say What would have been hi* positlou In the recent Inauguration ol political events. Had ho lived to behold (lie Confederate flag of these Southern States thrown proudly and defiantly to the breeze, bis ardent and true Southern heart would too surely have rctlocted the sentiment Of its oiu- bleuialie culor., Valor, Fiirfty wui TrotU. But, sir, while we may regret _the necessity which A Philadelphia despatch In the New York Herald of Tuesday gives au account of a mob demonstration lu Philadelphia: Philadelphia, April 15,1801. An excited crowd assembled this morning be fore the printing Office on the corner of Fourth aud Chesnut streets, where the Palmetto Flag, a small advertising sheet, is published, aud threatened to demolish it. The proprietor dis played tho American flag and threw the objec tionable papers from the windows, alto the Stars nnd Stripes, another paper printed ut the same office, restoring the crowd to good humor. The police were present. Philadelphia, April 15,12 M- There is still much cxdlcmeul about the Palmetto Flag office. The whole square la blocked up with people. The Mayor and police have possession of ibe building. A large Araerl- rieun flag is suspended across the street. Some damage has been dime to the Interior of the of fice. it would have been entirely torn out but for the iutoriurcuco of the Mayor. The Bulletin announces that the Secretary of the Charleston Secession Convention, who moved the secession ordinance, is now in the city, at the house o a relative In the Tenth Ward. The crowd has moved down to the Argus of fice, in Third street, opposite Dock street, or dering that the Hug should be displayed. The police are protecting it. Mayor Henry blade the following speech to tho crowd : Fellow Countrymen—--By the grace of Al mighty God treason shall never rear its head or have a foothold iu Philadelphia. (Immense chuerltig.) I call upon you as American citizens to stand by your llag, protect it at ail hazard*, ul the point of the bayonet If necessary.— But in doing so, remember the rights due lo your fellow-citizens und their private proper ty. (Immense cheering and cries of •* We will.") That Uag was au emblem of the government, und I caff upon all good citizens, who love their country und its flag, to teatlfy their loyalty by going to their respective placet of abode, leav ing to tho constituted authorities of the city the task of protecting the peace und preventing eve ry act which could be construed lu to treason to tne country. The Mayor then raised the stars aud stripes. Philadelphia, April 15—8 P. M.

Philadelphia, April 15—Evening. The proceedings of to-day cause much ah to Ibe order loving citizens, reviving the me ries of tho riots of 1844. The mob, which was mostly composed of fiery youths from tho outer district*, 1ms been held in abeyance inly through the willingness of tho citizens to obey their de mand, which was to show their colors. After visiting tho newspaper offices nnd gov ernment property they marched in a body up Market street, bearing ft flag.

They satisfied themselves with breaking the signs to pieces. During tho afternoon General Patterson s man sion, turner of Thirteenth nnd Locust streets, was mobbed and thriatcued with destruction. A servant auswered their call, and tiufortunalely slammed tbe door iu their faces. Tbo crowd be came uproarious aud violent, and made an at tempt to force open the door. General Patter sou’s family appeared at- the window, bearing the colors ’of the regiment. The crowd then moved away. It is understood fhut General Pat tersou, who is churgud with sceossibtilsnb In tend* throwing up his commission. Thg mob then visited General Cadwallndcr, who made a Union speech and threw out a flag. At least 10,000 people have been gathered in Chestnut street all day. Happily a heavy rain commenced to fall this evening, and the crowds are scattering. The Mayor had a large police force on dnty nil day, who are worn out with fatigue lu restrain ing the mob from violence. Several prominent Southerners with secession proclivities, including Robert Tvler, have re ceived warnings from a so-called \ IgilancoGom- rtlon of the Frst Division will remain iu I York. Even those persons who ara most anx ious to prosecute a war with the. Booth, will, upon reflection, acquiesce in the propriety of this arrangement.

In apprehension of mob violence In New York, Mayor Wood has Issued the following proclamation: MAYOR’S PROCLAMATION. Match’s Office, New York. April 15, lwl. i the Rsople of the City of New York ; As Chief Magistrate, representing tho whole people, I feel compelled ut this crisis to call upon them to avoid excitement* and turbulence. Whatever may be or may have been individual positions or opinions on questions of public polity, let UH remember tb'.t our country now trembles upon the brink of u precipice; and that it requires ft patriotic and honest effort lo prevent it* final destruction. Let us Ignore the past, risiug superior to partisan conftlderatiuns, aud rally to the restoration of the Constitution nnd the Union, as they existed In tbe days and iu the spirit ol our father*. Whether lids is lo be uccomplUhed by fratrici dal warfare or by concession, conciliation aud sacrifice, men may differ, butull will admit that here, at least, harmony and peace should prevail. Taus may we, nuder tho guidance of Divine Providence, set an example of peace oud good will throughout our extended couutry. In tbfa spirit nud with this viow, I caff upon the people of New York, irrespective of all other considera tions or prejudices, to unite iu obedience to the laws, in support of the public peace, lu the pres ervation of order, and iu the protection of prop erty. Fernando Wood, Mayor. Kufcrriug to this action on the part of Mayor Wood, the Journal oj Commerce remarks : Mayor Wood's proclamation, which wo pub lish in number column, was perhaps suggested by facts wUb which we are not fully acquainted; but no one cun fail to perceive that iherflgre materials amoug us which, under the lend of demagogues, might easily be kindled into a llatne. The violence of a portion of the press i« well fitted to increase the danger. Whatever conflicts may exist elsuwhere, there can be but one opinion ns,to thu desirableness of peace among ourselves. Let, then, nil good citizens endeavor to promotu it. by avoiding needless provocations, by tolerating differences qf opin ion, and by expressing those differences, when they exist, in such manner as uot to give need less offense. There are troubles enough upon us as a Patlon and as u community, without ad ding to the number unnecessarily.
