More Troops.
Last Saturday morning a company
from Barbour Cos., (the fourth from that
county,) commanded by Captain Patrick
Woodworth, passed through this city en
route for Montgomery, destined, it is
supposed, for Pensacola. This company
is from the vicinity of Louisville, in the

day morning, for Montgomery. They
are all nearly residents of Louisville.
Alabama, and have gone to Montgom
ery without the knowledge of the Gover
nor, for the purpose of tendering their
services to the State or Confederate
States. From our knowledge of the
ersnnnel of the company, we are assured
that the Government could not accept
the services of a more efficient and re

The Military at Macon.
An election was held in Macon yester
day, for Colonel, Lieut. Colonel and
Major to command the Regiment of Vol

the Battalion of Volunteers. Several
candidates are in the field. Ten compa
nies compose the Regiment and four the
Battalion. Company D, Capt. Wilkins,
is included in the Regiment. The Regi
ment and Battalion were organized on the
same day and were to be reviewed by the
Governor at 4 o’clock in the afternoon.
P. S.—Since tlie above was put in type
we learn by dispatch from Macon, which
appears elsewhere, of the election for
Regimental and Battalion officers. We
congratulate our friend, Col. Ramsey, on
his promotion to the honorable and re

It is a compliment of which he may truly

Arrival of tlie Florida Ueglinent.
The Regiment of Florida troops, con
sisting of nine companies, numbering over
six hundred men, arrived here Sunday
morning on the steamers Time and Vm.
11. Young, chartered for the purpose.
They are generally a fine looking body
and seem to be in excellent health and
spirits. They are commanded by intelli
gent and experienced officers, some of
whom, we believe, have seen service
iu the “tented field.” Among them
wo notice Capt. Cropp, of the “Franklin
Blues,” from Apalachicola, an ox member
of the Columbus Guards, of this city,
who was with the Company in Mexico.
All the troops are encamped at and
near the Opelika Depot, and will remain
until to morow or next day.
Apalachicola and New Orleans
Steamship Company.
We are informed from an authentic
source, that the stockholders of the Apa
lachicola and New Orleans Steamship
Line, have it in contemplation to extend
and increase their business by running a
line to New York from the former city ;
and if the success of the enterprise war
rants it, to arrange so that a steamer
will leave daily for New York. The reg
ular communication between Apalachi
cola and New Orleans will not be inter
rupted in such an event, but will continue
a s heretofore.
All the necessary stock for the new
steamer to run in conjunction with the
Florida to New Orloans, was readily
taken, some of the subscribe* B being cit
izens of New Orleans. A regular line to
York, as well as to New Organs
would in all probability be successful,
and we are pleased to learn that the en
terprising stockholders of the Florida
contemplate making the experiment.

Tlie Centrifugal Gun.
A committee of gentlemen, appointed
to witness au experimental trial of a cen
trifugal gun belonging to Col. George
Stone and ltev. G. F. Capps, at Opelika,
have recommended its adoption by the
War Department at Montgomery. The
following is an extract from the Commit
tee’s report:
The shot ranged upon a horizontal
line, varying somewhat from right to left,
owing to the irregularity of the motion of
the machine in consequence of its being
moved we suppose by haud, without the
proper appliances. The velocity of the
balls will bit according to the velocity of
the periphery of the wheel, or the outer
euds of the barrels and therefore, if a
revolution of two hundred thousand feet
per second, can be acquired, it will give
the speed of gun powder, which would
require one hundred revolutions per
second, of a wheel of twenty feet in cir
cumference, a velocity which machinists
think can be acquired, and if it should
fall a little short of that, it would then
supersede musketry, owing to the rapid
ity of its discharge.
The machine contains four barrels ar
ranged like the spokes of a wheel which
when revolving at the rate of two thou
sand revolutions per minute, will give
four thousand discharges per minute,
which is equal to the loading and dis
charging of four thousand muskets per
minute, or eight thousand in two minutes,
or sixteen thousand in four minutes,
which is perhaps as fast as men can load
and discharge on the field of battle.
A Noted Personage.
A correspondent of the New York
Times writes from Charleston :
I couvcrse freely with the blacks, and
find among them but one sentiment, that
of loyalty, earnest and strongly express
ed.
There is a famous old darkey here, or,
to speak more respectably, a venerable
colored gentleman, of a very delicate
brown complexion, whose card lies be
fore me. Wm. W. Seymour writes a baud
that a Bank clerk might envy. lie is
only sixty-five, yet he is as active as an
early cricket. Seymour keeps a Hotel,
and has been worth, in his day, a cool
$50,000, and has held, and still holds,
slaves. He thinks this condition is de
cidedly the best for the mass of the nig
gers; and certainly he ought to know.—
Iu the war of 1812 he commanded, so I
have heard, a Regiment of his own color,
aud says he is ready now to march at
the head of an equal number, “if the
J —n Yankees come down here to inter
fere with our institutions.” It is amus
ing to see the fire in the old man’s eye
when he talks on this subject. Seymour
is the crack cook of Charleston, and is
in great demand for private suppers, &c.
His place in State street is well known
to all lovers of good living and good
drinking. He is the very personification
of the fine old gentleman, courtly and
suave, and would make a splendid study
for an artist like vour Elliot. I frequent
ly see the first’ men in town shaking
hands with the old man. In fact, ho en
joys the respect of all, and bids fair to
last at least twenty years more.
Funulments from tlie New York
Programme.
The following neat sentiment wasdrunk
standing at a private fete among the fust
circle colered elite of New York, a lew
evenings since : “Here’s to decolor’d fair
sec, der face needs no paint, dar head no
‘fumery.”
Barry Cornwall says :
“Come, let me dive into thine eyes.”
If his love had “swimming eyes,” very
good ; but, at all events, our advice to the
young woman is, for divers reasons,
don’t let him do it. He might go over a
cataract.
A boy at school out West, when called
out to recite his leson in history, was
asked. “ What is the German Diet com
posed of?” The boy replied, “sour krout,
schnapps, lagerbeer, and nix comerou
sche.” Boy promoted instanter.
“William,”said a teacher to one of bis
pupils, “can you tell me why the sun rises
in the east?” “Don’t know, sir, replied
William, “’cept it be that the east makes
everything rise.” Teacher fainted.
“Pray, madam, why did you name
your old hen Mcduff?” was asked of a
sentimental lady who kept poultry.—
“ Because, sir,” she replied, “I want her
to lay on.”
A country captain, desiring to cross a
field, came to an opening in the fence
large enough to permit two persons to
pass abreast. Unfortunately, he was de
ficient in military tactics, and could not
remember the order which would have
accomplished the difficult task of filing
through, but his ingenuity did not desert
him, aud therefore he ordered a halt and
then said
“Gentlemen, you are dismissed for one
minute, when you will fall in on t’other
side of the fence.”

Departure of the Southern Foreign
Kmb ansa dors for Europe.
Washington. April 1 —A dispatch re
ceived hereto day announces that Messrs
ancey and Rost embarked yesterday
Irom New Orleans for Europe, and that
Dudley Mann embarked on the same day
from New York, as special Commissioners
from the Confederate States, to perfect
negotiations begun some time since by
confidential agents of high character now
in Europe, for the recognition by the
great Powers of the world of the new
Southern government, and, moreover, for
the formation of anew treaty of the
most liberal kind, and for the regulation
of commercial relations.
Col. Mann took with him a large num
ber of documents, including upwards of
a hundred copies of the new Tariff bill
which will be thoroughly distributed
throughout Europe.
The contrasts between the two govern
ments have already opened the eyes of
our own people, as well as thoße of Eu
rope, and intelligence which has just re
ceived here leaves little doubt upon the
mind of our government as to what the
ultimate course of the European govern
ments will be in regard to the Southern
Confederacy.
The Instructions to our Foreign
Ministers.
Washington April I.—Mr. Seward is
preparing his instructions to the new
foreign Ministers who are to replace
our representatives now at the Courts of
Europe. I learn they are of the most
anti-slavery kind, disparaging the South
ern republic, misrepresenting, its insti
tutions and ridiculing the idea of its
being able to maintain itself. It is the
first time in the history of this govern
ment that the Secretary of State has sent
out to Europe in the form of instructions
Rbels against the domestic institutions of
fifteen States of the Union.
Virginia Convention.
Richmond, April I.—ln the Convention
to day James Barbour finished his seces
sion speech. Mr. Treadway followed
favoring an ultimatum by Virginia. Mr.
Mortague commenced a speech for seces
sion. Mr. Southall presented the reso
lutions ot a portion of the people of Al
bemarle counties, instructing him to vote
tor secession. He said that he was aware
of a change in the sentiment of the people
of that county, and when convinced that
a majority were that way, ho would shape
his course to their views. Resolutions
were* presented from Bedford, Amelia,
and Madison counties iu favor of immedi
ate secession.
Richmond, April 4.—The Convention
adopted the third resolution of the ma
jority report, opposing the formation of
geographical sectional parties. The
fourth, slightly amended, was under con
sideration, when they took recess.
Evening Session.—The fourth resolu
tion, as amended, was adopted. The
fifth was amended and adopted, by de
claring simply that the legitimate use of
the forts, etc., is to protect the country
against a foreign force.
It was moved to strike out the whole
aud insert an ordinance of secession, to
be submitted to the people in May next.
Yeas forty five; nays eighty nine. The
abovo was not strictly a test vote, but
the Unionists were much rejoiced. The
conveution then adjourned.
A Federal Officer In Nexv Orleans.
Montgomery, April 4.—lnformation
has beeu received here that an officer of
the United States Army, who was sent
to New Orleans by his Government about
the time of tlje secession of Texas, still
remains iu that city, for the purpose, it
is suspected, of giving information to the
United States Government concerning
movements in the States.
The War Department here, however,
keeps a sleepless vigilance on the move
ments of this officer, and if the suspicions
entertained of him should prove true, he
will, no doubt, be properly taken care of.
He is believed to be a Pennsylvanian.
Naval and Military Movements at
New York and Boston.
New York, April 6.—The steamer II- ,
linois has been chartered by the Govern
ment. She sails to day or to morrow

She is now about sailing, with 900 men.
A detachment of Artillery, with four
guns and forty men, came up to this city
to day from Fort Hamilton.
Boston, April G.—Great activity pre
vails in the Navy Yard at Charlestown.
Eight hundred men are employed there.
The Baiubridge is now ready for sea,
and her crew arc awaiting orders.
The Minnesota, Mississippi and Colo
rado are ready for sea.

Charleston, April 6, 8 P. M.—lt was

business being still unfinished. The
Convention has been in secret session
nearly all day.
California V. 8. Senator.
San Francisco, March 21.—Jos. A.
McDougall was elected United States
Senator by the Legislature, iu joint con
vention, last evening, receiving 5G out of
111 votes. He was afterwards awarded
a certificate by the Governor.
Subsequently the Clerk made affidavit
of 113 votes having been cast, leaving
McDougall one vote short. An investi
gation is proposed by a Joint Committee.
The supporters of McDougall claim that
his election depends on the certificate,
even if tho Committee report against him,
leaving, ground for a future contest at
Washington, should the Legislature here
after elect another party.

Cincinnati, April 1. —The city election
to day passed off quietly. The Demo

“Sir: The control of the warehouses

Alabama, Mississippi, Florida and Texas,

Washington, April 2.—There is great
rejoicing among the Government employ
ees at the news that the eight million loan
has been taken up by the Northern mo

discount, but the Administration is glad
to get in funds on any terms.
A letter received here from the Col
lector of New York says that that port is

The London News, the organ of Exeter
Hall, says:
“Mr. Gregory has given notice that on
an early day he will call the attention of
her Majesty’s Government to the expe
diency of a prompt recognition of the
Southern Confederacy of Amorica.—
There is no occasion for Mr. Gregory or
any one else to be anxious to get our
Government to acknowledge the so-called
Southern Confederacy of American
States. The practice of the British
Government, in such cases, is firmly es
tablished, and well understood—viz: to
recognize all de facto Governments, ir
respective of opinions, origin, or any
circumstance but the fact of being the
actually established ruling power. If
ever, and whenever, that happens with
the Southern States, which now profess
to be a Confederacy, there can be no
doubt about their being recognized by
all the European powers ; and by Eng
land with the utmost certainty and dis
tinctness—but the case has not yet
reached this stage; and it is very far
from reaching it.
From the Mobile Tribune.
Mobile, March 30, 1861.
To the Editor of the Tribune:
I see a notice in your issue of this
morning of Prof. Jewett’s Grand Female
School at Poughkeepsie, New York, late
principal of the Female College at Mari
on, Ala. I happen to know something
of this man Jewett’s history while in the
South and since his return North.
He came to Alabama an accomplished,
enterprising and shrewd New Englander ;
commenced a school in Marion, and by
his energy and tact, and by his extreme
love manifested for the South, built up a
very fine school; made money, saved it,
and even bought niggers, as they pay well.
He finally concluded to go back home; did
so; turned Black Republican ; villified the
people of the South; denounced [slavery
and slave-owners. This, no.doubt, paid
better in a Northern latitude. But, mark
you, in the meantime he sells his negroes
and, in order to get pig prices, in one
case separates man and wife.

New York, April 3.—The Lincoln Gov

Piekens, it is now conceded, is to be con

assured that other points have not been
overlooked. Several ships have been

tatively stated that no troops were landed
at Fort Pickens from the Brooklyn.
It is believed by those who have the
beet means of \uowing, that the present
activity iu putting the navy on an effect
ive footing, is to maintain the respecta
bility abroad more than to interfere with
Southern affairs; but should it be for the
latter, the South would not be taken - by
surprise in any movement made.
It is thought that if the Administration
intended hostilities, the whole eight mil
lion loan would have been accepted.
Expressly for the Advertiser.
Washington, April 4.—Two or three
light artillery companies, and also twenty
or thirty city carpenters, who have been
employed by the Government, left here
by a special train this morning, ostensi
bly for Fort Hamilton, which commands
the entrance into the harbor of New York.
Washington, April 4—lo, p. m.—The
steamer Pawnee has been outfitted here,
and will probably sail on Saturday, the
6th, for parts unknown. Some assert
that she is going to Fort Sumter for Ma
jor Anderson, and the Federal troops
under his command.
Special to the Charleston Courier.
Washington, April 3.—The Cabinet
had a long special session on the Fort
Sumter question to day. The report of
Capt. Fox, the first messenger, that there
is a chance for reinforcing the Fort, was
laid befor.e them. There was considera
ble debate.
It is understood that some members
contended that the time for the evacua
tion, as a peace measure , had long since
passed, aud that the question now was,
whether Major Andorson should be al
lowed to remain until starved out, or an
attempt be made to reinforce him. This
phase of the question was discussed at
length in all its beat ings. It is thought
that it was finally agreed that the evacu
uation must take place, but thattbe status
of Fort Pickens should be maintained at
all hazards. The city is rife with ail
sort of rumors.
Important dispatches were receved at
the war Department from the South to
day, Lieut. Gilman having arrived from
Fort Pickens. It is stated that reinforce
ments have beeu lauded at this fort with
out doubt. Permanent officers of the
Administration asset t that the
order to that effect was made out two
weeks ago. Lieut. Gilmau testifies to
morrow iu the Armstrong Court Martial
case.
Mr. Forsyth, one of the Confederate
States Commissioners, returned from
New York to day. The Commissioners
have received nothing from the Adminis
tration as yet.
A messeuger from Galveston reached
here to day, with nine thousand dollars
of government funds.
All the new Government loan has been
been arranged so as to be taken at six
per cent.
Washington, April s.—The nowspaper
reports, that the Commissioners from the
Southern Confederacy have taken or
rented a private house in this city, is
simply untrue. They do not, by any
means, consider themselves fixtures here.
The New York Evening Post says it is
rumored that the Government agents who
were sent to England and France for the
purpose of ascertaining the feeling of
those Governments in reference to the
Southern secession movement, have re
turned, and report that both those Pow
ers sot their faces against the Southern
Confederacy, and that they will in no
manner recognise or assist it.
The same also says it is reported that
the President of the United States and his
Cabinet have determined to take imme
diate and vigorous measures for the en
forcement of the laws at all hazards.
The Government has chartered the
steamers Baltic and Ariel to carry troops
under sealed orders.
The Baltic will carry Barry’s company
of Flying Artillery and ninety men ; aud
the Ariel will carry seven or eight com
panies of Infantry and Marines. These
vessels will sail on Sunday next.
The frigate Powhattan goes to sea to
morrow morning, fully equipped and
provisioned, and will probably take three
companies of troops.
The impression at the Navy Yard is
that Forts Sumter and Pickens are both
to be reinforced.
The revenue cutter Harriet Lane sailed
to day.
A company of one hundred men on
Governor's Island has received marching
orders. Other companies will speedily
follow.
There aro now over twenty six hun
dred troops at the different stations in
this port, (continues the New York Post.)
The Express says that it is supposed
in well informed quarters that Texas is
the point where the troops will be land
eJ, and that they are to be sent out at
the request of Gov. Houston, to repel
the Indians in that State.
The Commercial says that a committee
of leading Virginia politicians, have had
an interview with the President and Sec
retary of State, and were assured most
positively that the President contempla
ted no hostile movements, and that he
should not attempt to collect the revenue,
for the simple reason that Congress had
withheld from hint the power to do so.
The steamship Atlantic has also been
chartered, and cleared this afternoon for
Brazos Santiago, Texas, with provisions
and stores.
Washington, April 5 —An informant
who is usually reliable, states that the
Administration intends concentrating all
the available military and naval forces of
the country at Tortugas and Key West;
thence troops will be supplied to Fort
Pickens, and if that point is attacked,
troops are to be taken from Tortugas in
order to resist the attack.
It is believed that there will be a suffi
ciency of warlike movements to cause the
Border States to join the Southern Con
federacy, as the Government cannot now
recognize its independence by treaty.
Another informant 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 sf army and naval stores, includ
ing seven mountain howziters, have been
shipped hence, by Express, to Fort Ham
ilton. These movements look to land a3
well as sea operations.
More Republican Governors met in
conclave here last night, but the result of
the meeting is unknown.
Several agents of New York Bankers
here telegraphed home to day that a col
lision is inevitable
Tho whole city is in a state of intense
excitement.
Washington, April C.—Lieut. Talbot,
from Fort Sumter, arrived here from
Charleston.
The Pawnee will receive orders on ar
riving at Norfolk.
This vessel left for the South this
morning, with 250 men.
A gentleman who has just left the Pres
ident says that he stated in a positive
manner that the Administration will not,
under any circumstances, constitute hos
tilities ; but that in consequence of relia
ble reports tbat the Confederate States
had to attack Fort Pickens, the present
movement is intended to repel such an
attack.
Specid Dispatch to the Charleston Mercury.
Washington, April 4.— The Southern
Commissioners have made inquiries at
the proper Departments to know what
is the meaning of the naval and army
movements which are now in progress.
The Administration refuse to give them
any satisfaction. It appears that all the
assurances which they have received from
Lincoln and his Cabinet meant nothing.
The Government at Washington have
decided upon their policy with regard to
the Confederate States. A few days will
develop it. An attempt to collect the
I revenue, it is believed, will be made, and
: the blockade of the month of the Missis
sippi has been determined on.
The steamer Pawnee has now received
her complete outfit here, and will sail on
Saturday for parts unknown. It is be
lieved by some that she is to go to Fort
Sumter.
Those who have invested in the eight
million loan begin to repent it already.
They are sorely alarmed at the warlike
preparations, but deny stoutly that Fort
| I’ickens has been reinforced hy the
steamer Brooklyn.
Special Dispatch to the Savannah Republican.
Washington, April 4.—The naval fleet
now titling out in the harbor of New
i York, is said to be destined to counter
act the English aud French fleets iti the
Gulf of Mexico. Some believe that it is
designed to blockade the month of the
Mississippi, or the ports of the Confede
-1 rate States.
A deputation of Governors from sever
al States waited on the President to day.
and urged him to hold the southern forts.
There is much excitement in Washing
ton on political affairs.
Fort Sumter.
The Charleston Mercury, of the sth
inst. has made diligent inquiry concern
ing the rumors rife in that city concern
ing Fort Sumter, and in the absence of
official information, deems the following
facts to be reasonably certain:
First. That the supplies of provisions,
and the mails, hitherto furnished regu
larly to the garrison of Fort Sumter, are
to be cut oil to day, aud that no further
communication will be allowed between
Major Anderson and the Government at
Washington.
Second. That the troops at all the
State fortifications are now finally dis
posed, equipped and provided for, so as
to be ready for action at a moment’s
warning.
Third. That no attack of auy kind will
be made upon Fort Sumter until further
orders, unless such an attack should be
provoked by Mujor Anderson, or by an
attempt on the part of his Government to
bring aid to the beleagued fortress.
Fourth. That these measures are taken
at the instance of the Government of the
Confederate States, which has lost all
confidence in the professions of the Lin
coln Administration.
Special to the Charleston Courier.
From WaaHlngtou.
Washington, April 5 —Lieut. Talbot,
it is understood, will accept au office
here and not return South. lie will pro
bably be made Assistant Adjutant Gen
eral.
Much excitement exists here to day in
relation to matters at the South, and
thousands of flying rumors keep people
on the qui vice. ‘ Many are of opinion
that the crisis has culminated, and dis
patches from the South are looked for
with great interest.
The Confederate Commissioners are
still of opinion that Fort Sumter will be
evacuated, ahd say they have the best
reason to believe that the Administration
yet means peace.
Another messenger, it is understood,
will be dispatched to Charleston by the
Government on Sunday ; though a sudden
change in this respect is not improbable.
lion. Jolid M. E its and two members
of the Virginia Convention visited Mr.
Lincoln to night, urging a peace policy.
Special to the N. Y. Tribune.
From Montgomery.
Montgomery, April 3.— The intelli
gence that the Governmental Washington
means to blockade the Southern ports
aDd collect a revenue from them, has cre
ated a very warlike feeling here. Should
Lincoln attempt any sueh thing, Presi
dent Davis will issue letters of marque
against American commerce, and cover

In this city, oil the 3d inst., after an illness of
nineteen hours, Neil U. Smith, recently from
Montgomery, Ala.
On Saturday, the 23d ult., at the residence of
Mr. B. F. Malone, iu Russell county, Ala., Thob.
H. Burch, in the 41st year of his age.
In this city, on the 28th day of March, iu the
27th year of her age, Sarah E. Cowdkky, wife of
Lyman P. Cowdery. She left three ehiidren —
two of them very tender infants. (God protect
those little twins, in bringing whom into the
world she was called on to give up her own life
in so much bitterness.) She was born and
raised within two miles of this place, and had
been a member of the Methodist Church for
nearly three years. Though her death was not
altogether unexpected, it came with crushing
effect on her friends. The language of pany
geric has become hackneyed in obituary no
tice. Her best epitaph would be, “She was a
good woman.” In youth she was warm-hearted
and docile. Her maturer years fulfilled the
promise of her youth. We did not know how
much wo loved her, until she had left us. Now
we know—now we recall with streaming eyes
that noble heart, that cheerful mind, that beam
ing countenance. We could all ask no better
hope of happiness hereafter than to believe as
confidently in our prospects beyond the grave
as we do in her’s.
“ Here in an inn, a stranger dwelt,
Here grief and joy, by turns she felt;
Poor dwelling, now we close thy door!
Thy task is o’er,
The sojourner returns no more.
“Now open to her, gates of heaven,
Here let the pilgrim’s journey cease.
Ye quiet slumberers, make room,
In your still homes,
