Fauutleroy, of the Confederate Ststea Navy. A part of the cargo is 4U,UOU tu held rifle* 50 tons of powder, and a arge quanti ty of piatols. _ From the Savannah News 13 HuriJa linns Fioui all we learn from persons lately arriv ed, the affairs of Florida are in a lamentable .ondiiion, owing to the inefficiency of the otfi .-ere in command. With the exception of Col. Liowd.uf the Mississippi regiment, none of the oAccra were worthy of their position. The men were eager for the light, but were held isck by their commanders. Gen. Trapier has met with the condemnation of every man, wo man and child in Florida, and has been hooted at along the route he traveled. In despite of these adverse circumstances, at tiliani action was performed by a company ul Col. Davis’regiment, Ist Florida Cavalry. This company, commanded by Captain Win Clarke, look a position on a hlufl’ on the St. Mary's river, and wailed the approach of h federal Gunboat. As they approached a mail at her mast heat), espying Clarke's companv, cried Out. “Here are the damned Rebels.” ••Yes,” said Ciarku, ‘'here we are With that he raised his rifle and the lookout diopped dead ou the deck fiom his lofty perch. Clarke’s men then gave three cheeis, fired a volley, and tweuty five or thirty of the enemy were kilted aud wounded. The guuboat not being able to contend with our men thus advantageously ported, retreated discomfitl and. The evaculion of Fernanduia was conduc ted very badly, and much was lost owing to the inefficiency of the Colonel in command.— VC* trenator Yulec, President of the Florida railruail was “"““"g >1 bis e Aorta to save the property of the citizens. He was the last man to leave Fernandtna, and was outhe train that was nred on. He escaped by great efforts, and projected an expedition on Monday night to bring off the tiain that had been left which would huve beeu entirely succesful had not the railroad bridge been set on tire by oider of Col. ll< pkios, in command,just as the train reached it. All that the Florida troops need to ensure success is a worthy comman der. At last accounts a battle was beoig fought on the mainland bo ween the Federalists, 3,000 strong, and our forces, numbeitug about 2,000. There is no doubt that we shall lake the whole Federal force if Gen. Trapier does not order a retreat. Such are a ft w items we have gathered from those recently from Florida. We forgot to mention that the steamer St. Mary’s Capt. Freeborn, is safe in the St. John's Kiver. It is sutd The has been tnkeu far up that river and there sunk by her gallant Cap tain. Had it uot been for the sagacity ot Cap tatu Freeborn, the St. Mary's would hav been taken ou Sunday morning, when the first Fed eral steamer made her appearance, flying a French flag, in distress, it was proposed to him to go out to the assistance of this preleu dedly distressed steamer. Capt. Freeborutook a good look at her through his glass and quick ly observed that he was not to be caught in that way, because he was sure she w as a Yan kee build. It was then that Lieut. Col. Hoi land and eight men put off to her in a boat, and were caught and takeu prisoners by this base stratagem of the unscrupulous Yankee From the New Orleans Dell*. The Uil Our brethren of the press are making lie queat refeieace to the enormous debt ol the Yankee Government, as though they expec led that Government to be soon crushed by the height of it alone. This is a onesided view o the matter, and tends to do harm to our own isus*. It is true the Yankee debt is enormous and is increasing with a rapidity without ex ample in the history of nations. Hut let us look look to the other side; we see debt, let us now •re what the credit is. On the credit side w* see the largest and best appointed army in all the world. This huge debt has created this huge array, and now by means of this army our enemy expects to pay this debt. lie ex pects by the aid of this army to subjugats these Confederate States, aud upon their sub jugation to throw this debt from his shoulders upon ours. This, in a word, is the sum and substance of the whole thing. With money he raised soldiers, and with hiaisoldiers he ex pects to raise money. The war, indeed, so far as the Yankee is concerned, is a war for money. He is not fighting to restore the Union. He knows that to be an obsolete idea. Nor is he lighting for principle or honor; he puts no value on eith er; he does not understand them and never fights for them. He is fighting for money. He knows be will be crushed by his vast debt un less our wealth shall be poured into his cof fers. It is idle, therefore, to speak of his immense debt, except for the purpose of stimulating our own people to resist the payment of It.— He will fight as hard for money as we for honor Indeed, he will fight for nothing else, and the bigger the sum the harder the fight. _ When, therefore, the press announces that the Yankee debt is, or soon will be,a thousand million, let it be thundered into the ears of our people that he will light to the death to make us pay it, and that we, self-reliant, must fight to the death for life, liberty, property and hon or. Tub 11 sroic Biuhanan. —The self-abnbga ting heroism of Capt Buchanan, of Maryland, commander of the Virginia in the rseent memo rable conflict, will be generally appreciated when it is known that fair younger and favorite brother was the Purser of the frigate Congress, at which £ the fire of the Virginia was most pertinaciously 1 directed, and is supposed to have perished on $ board of bar .

The AliaDiloßDcat us Mwussa.v In view of the fact that considerable uneasi nr* is manifested on the part oflbe public, ou account of reports of the fa'ling back of our forces from Manassas and the upper Potomac, the Richmond Examiner given us the positive assurance that these movements have not been on account of any pro-sure of the ene my. but ore purely strategic. (Jen. Johnston is understood to have the confidence ot the Administration to such an extent that, us a singular exception, he has the corn ml and di rection of military movement* in his depart ment entirely in hi* own di-cretion. It is certain that anew line of defence is to be or ganized in Northern Virginia, and that the points have been selected with a view to the best strategic advantage. These points are not yet ladicated ; but it is thought probable that a line of defence will be organised, exten - ding from Gordonsvilie'to Staunton. A depot of provisions is now being established at the former place. Cuilrtbioil Trade. We have for a long time suspected that there was a good deal of b*ah in the trequent rumours of the arrivals in our ports of foreign vessels with immense uumbers of arms. It was stated in Congress yesterday that tbe recent report which was circulated through lbs country of tbe arrival of fifteen thousand arms in New Orleans from ‘ abroad was grossly false- the magnificent number of thousands Laving dwindled down to one hundred. It is quite possible that these false reports off reigu importations of arms may be designs i to conciliate/svour for contraband ex ports of cotton, thia infamous trade, as wehea < being now bussily plied at New Orleans und Wilmington, no less than three ship* laded wilb cotton outward bound being repotted to have eluded the blockade at the latter pert within the last few days. Hivkmood. Examiner. 8/A. buti boat hod bj the Udtei There is a most praise-worthy project on foot in this State, originated by soma patriotic lady on the seaboard or in the iuterior to raise a fund by individual contribution fruin the ladies of Georgia to build a gunboat for service in the Sa vannah river. The craft is to be presented to our .veteran and daring Commodore Tattnall who will assuredly make a profitable use of it The thing is practicable and will be done if our Georgia ladies will but turn their hearts and hands to it. The object is worthy of all their ef forts and can be accomplished with buts small sacrifice by each. Indeed that cannot be called a sacrifice at ail which must lead to sueb impor tant and valuable result. We have been desig nated as an agent for this fund in this section of the Slate, and will be p eased to receive contri butions from those who may desire to be identifi ed with to patriotic an undertaking. Many years ago the ladles of Columbus presented s passenger car to the Muscogee Railroad, can they not do as much in behalf of an enterprise which certainly has a much larger claim upon their generosity ? m , m Tub Macon a Waaraa.v Roau.—-The patriotic Directors of tbs railroad from here to Macon announce that they will not transport liqno • over tneir road.

Mien Items. Wa have beon permitted by a friend to peruse a New York Herald of March 6th. Though not as late as intelligence reoeived through other ohannels, it may oontaiu a tew items of iutereet which we eondense here: Washington's birthday was celebrated in London by a public breakfast at the Freemason's Tavern. The “Bishop of Ohio” presided; about two hundred ladios aud gentlemen were present, and Minister C. F. Adams made a speech The entire floating debt ofthe Federal Gov erumeut is variously estimated at from seventy five to one hundred million, whioh is to bo liqui dated by SIOOO “certificates of indebtedness,” payable one year from date, or earlier at the option of lhe Government. In other words the Government is staving off the payment of its debts one year longer, by paying its creditors with ‘these certificates, instead of the money whiob.is due} them: thus exhibiting a decided weakness In the kuees iu its monetary affairs. The sales of Southern stuck ut the first hoard ou the sth Inst, were as follows 17,1)00 Tenues sees 619a, 52, 52H. and 58, and at the second board as follows: 25,000 Tennessee* at 60a60 l -{; and 10,000 Missouri* at 52, 62L and 02. “Honest Old Abe” is bighly complimented by the “Herald” for appointing Andy Johnson a “conservative fc uian on the slavery question,” Military Governor of Tennossee. The Herald approvo* of the proposed tax on newspapers, and says it is uovul nnd “lu the first place, thnro is a tax of three mills per pound or about fifteen cents per ream, upon whitepaper. Then there is a tax of fire per cent, upon the annual receipts from advertise ments; thirdly, there is a stamp duty k upon tele graphic mossager; aud fourthly, oomos a tax of three per cent upi-n the aggregate income of the ■vn. r . r .. -* ** The Herald saya that under this law it will have to pay from thirty flvo to forty thousuud dollars a year in the form of taxes, aud urges the Tribune, Times aud World to unit* their three establishments, and issue only one paper,as they will he unable to pay this tax, and will, consequently, huve to combine or collapse.

We clip tbe following paragraphs from the Savannah Moriug News, of March 14ih ; Mona Fikino. —Yesterday afternoon more heavy firing was heard below. During the fore noon Commodore Tattnall went down the river with several of his little fleet, and as soon as ha got within range of the Federal* two of their batteries and a guuboat opened on his steamers, throwing about two hundred shot and shell in this direction, but without effect. The Commo dore returned the compliment with a few shot and shell.

Mc- Donald in command of each of those companies, our informant was unable to tell the name of the oompany present, as he only learned the name of the officers in command.) The enemy were not in the eity hut on board their vessels in the harbor. Eight Yankee soldiers were engaged gathering oysters within musket range from the bank, and the temptation induced ne of our men, a printer, belonging to the Jackson Artil lery, who bad accompanied the expedition, to pull trigger on them, and one of the party fell. The rest.began to row lustily uway, when other •hots were fired at them and but two of the eight were left to return to their ships. The gunboats in the stream then opened their cannon on the eity, but done no damage to our troops, as they bad withdrawn, finding uo enemy on shore to meet them. About IU o'clock that night the Yankees again opened on the city, and It is supposed that they were shelling ths town. Mr. Geo.

Thf Crops. The Governor of Alabama is right when he saya “Flam no more cotton than you wiah to use,” and a bale will go further than a “burro of whiekey in a atuuli family.” There is abundance left of the last crop for thia pur pose, and why should a man wiah to raise cotton which he cannot sell, instead of corn and meat which every body is anxious to buy? Let us see: Three acres to tbe bale is a good allowance for the ordinary lands in Georgia. The same land should bring thirty nix bushels of corn. Corn nexi year will ‘probably net any planter a dollar at his crib, which amounts to thirty-six dollars—with half the labor for the product of the same laud in cotton, which would be thirty five dollars.—Macon Tele graph. a Pay or Conukkshman.
