Latest News . “The Unwilling Witness.” Boston, Mass., April 4.—Sanborn, who refused to answer the summons before the Senate Harper’s Ferry Committee, was arrested at Concord lost- night by Federal officers, but he was subsequent^ ly rescued and kept by the citizens, un til a writ of habeas corpus was Issued.— A hearing in the case is now progressing here before a full bench of the Superi or Court. The Legislature laid on the table joint resolutions authorizing the employment of the States Attorney in Sanborn's defence. Meeting of the National Executive Committee. Washinoton, April s.—The Notional Executive Committee met here to-day Twenty-three'States were represented, and they unanimously rosolved that it was inexpedient to change the place of holding the nominating Convention. The Right Spirit. The Rome Light Guards, the new "**<^£plunteor Corps, recently organized in this place, have sent an order to the Roswell Manufacturing Company for the goods—Groy casstmeres—of which their uniforms are to he made. As the martial spirit which produced the or ganization of this and hundreds of other Military Companiesin the South, was aroused by tne invasion of a South ern State by an armed band of traitors from the North, carrying out to their logical conclusion the ^teachings of the dominant political party ip that section, it is right and a patriotic duty.to work out the independence we are preparing to fight for whenever it may be necessa- ry, by patronising home manufactures in the purchase of ail the equipments '"'that can be furnished by our own sec tion. We hope every new Volunteer Company in the South will follow the example of the Rome Light Guards, if they have not set the example them selves. Prove your fidelity to the rights and interests of the South in this way, and when the time comes, her people will believe you are ready to fight for them. Bailey Troupe. This poular company, after a short ab sence, returned to Rome on last Wed nesday, and have been entertaining de lighted and crowded audiences every night since. Miss Emily, who was pre vented by illness from taking her part ^jn the plays, during their lost visit, has entirely recovered, and her performance fully meets the expectations, of those who have eagerly looked for her appear ance. They are now surprised that they could have been, before, so well pleased-without her. Mr. Baily’s is quite fortunate in secu ring the services of Mr. Ferris. He is a decided acquisition to the oompany, and notwithstanding he 1b a young man, it is evident that he is an " old stager." Haile, in hisinegro characters, is inimitable—Christy’s or theCiwnpbell -Minstrell’s cannot boast his superior.— His every look, word and motijm brings. own a perfect hailstorm of applause.— Wo would advise those who have no dosire to “grow fat,”juot to attend the Bailey’s exhibitions, for they will be sure to laugh three solid hours. We cannot commend too highly the decorous deportment of the entire Troupe. They well deserve the liberal patronage they have received in Rome. This evening “ Black Eyed Susan" will be performed. This is a first rate Comedy, and will be a great treat, to oil who witness it, To-night is the last of the season. • _ ggy-Tho Federal Union promises to give to its readers, next week, a letter from William Woodpile. The Maroh Convention and its friends may expect to “catch particular fits." *6B“Mr. John MoBrydo was eleoted Cashier of the Bank of tho Empire State, and not J. W.

Washinoton, April 3.—Senator Hun ter emphatically denies the truth of the dispatch that he had written -to Hem- don, nrgihg the Cjook delegation in Illi nois, to attend the Charleston Conven tion. From WasiuNoton.—April 1.—In re sponse to a report of the House 'com mittee on Territories, whioh assorts the general principle that the acceptanoy or rejection of a petition for the admis sion of a State, into the Union, rests en tirely in the discretion of Congress at the time of said application, ,J(r.

Chills and Fever!—One of the remedies that has ever boon laid before the public for Fever and Ague, and which have received the highcBt cuconium from the press and the peoples, is Dr. J.

Whowould endure sleep less nights, burning fevers and icy chills al ternately, when a remedy can bo obtained for a mere trifle ? And yothow many families linger outa painful existence under this dead ly blight, and do nothing hut gulp down quinine, until it becomes as common os their dail meals, and yet theyjire not relieved.— None but the foolish and weak would hesitate to procure these valuable Bitters, and sav.e themselves intense agony.
