Norfolk, Va., June Oth. Efifor Savannah Republican : I arrived It* re Monday evening, having turned aside front the direct route to lliuhmond to pay our Georgia boys in this region ft visit.— Norfolk, as you are doubtless aware, is an old, dirty and poorly constructed town. — The houses are old fashioned, the streets fil thy, though paved with rough and irregular stones, the men slow in their movements, an 1 the women plain. Oysters and fijlt of flic most approved descriptions are to be hail in great abundance, and at. one-third the cost of the same articles in Charleston and Savannah. The harbor is one of the best in the world; and fifty or a hundred years hence, if the* people should wake up in that time, the city, under the fostering care of the Southern Confederacy, may become a place of great, commercial importance. The population is estimated at 18,000; or in cluding Portsmouth just across the river, and other suburbs, 26,000. Oysters, fish, fruit and vegetables constitute no small part of the trade of the place. Tuesday morning 1 visited Capt. Colquitt, of the Columbus (Ga.) City Light Guard, and Capt. Murray, late of the U. 8 Navy, in command of the battery at Sewell’s Point. Capt. Colquitt aud his command were in ex cellent health and spirits, and “eager for the! fray.” About noon the Harriet Lane, which ‘ is as saucy aud impudent as she can be, steamed past the battery, just beyond the range of our guns. At one time it was thought she intended to engage the battery, whereupon the boys were perfectly delighted. I had applied for permission to lire one shot, myself, by way of paying my compliments to “the niece of the President;’ but her commander was prudent enough to keep her at a respetful distance. f took my lirst dinner in camp with Capt.’ Colquitt and his mess, including the ller. Mr. Jordan, chaplain of the company, and though it was not equal to some dinners I have set down to, I never enjoyed one more. Before leaving them I shall venture upon a predieti m, viz: That the City Light Guard will leave a terrible mark upon the enemy, should the God of battles ever bring him within their reach. The company i? com posed of many of the first young men about Columbus —a fact which it is said does not bold good with the rank and file of many of the Virginia companies. Young gentlemen of good social position here are ready to “Jfi err the companies, but it is reported that, with some exceptions, they are not so willing to go into the ranks as the young men fur-, ther’South. I may remark, in passing, that the Geor gia volunteers stand number one in this part of the Confederacy. On the cars, at the stations, and in the hotels, men and women everywhere are unanimous in pronouncing them the best troops that have been sent to the field. j From Sewell’s Point I went to Tanner’s Cross Hoads, a most important strategic point, where the Georgia battalion, Major Hardeman, is encamped. The battalion is composed of the Macon Volunteers, (’apt. Smith; Floyd (Macon) Rifles, Capt. Ross; the City Light Guards, Capt. Colquitt, now at Sewell’s Point, and the Spalding Grays, 1 Capt. Doyal. 2V finer body of men of the same number is not to bo found m the Con-’ federate Army. I took supper with Capt.

He read that beautiful j production of David, the 90th psalm, in a; clear and distinct voice, and then gave ont an appropriate hymn, which I never heard sung with more effect in a church. Next came a simple hut touching prayer, in which he begged that his command might be saved from all sin and temptation, and that they might have grace given them to perform their whole duty to their Maker, to their country, and to themselves. He asked that wisdom might be given to our rulers and success to our chieftains, and that, our coun try might be conducted safely through the dangers that now surround it, and that victory might,at last perch upon our standard, ami ‘lie sweet Jove of peace return once more to our troubled land. He then prayed in most touching words that God would have in his keeping the dear friends they had left be hind—their mothers, their wives and sisters, and all others who were near and dear to_ them.

Thus surrounded and thus cir cumstanced, here stood these youthful war riors, with their harness on their backs, humbly placing themselves, their friends, their cause and their country into the hands of the God of our fathers —the awful Judge of the Universe! It was a picture worthy to be transferred to “immortal canvass.” — Can such men be conquered? Never! I speut the night in Major Hardeman’s marquee, aud took breakfast next morning with him, Capt. Rosa and their hospitable mess, where it was my good fortune to get another cup of delicious coffee. Returning to town in the forenoon, I visited the Third Georgia Regiment, Col. Wright, encamped near the Navy Yard. Here I found the best arranged camps I have seen. Among other tilings, I noticed that bush arbors had be 2ti put up iu front of each tent, and ex tending the entire leugtli of the street on both sides, thus forming a shaded sidewalk ; and in many places cedar and otliei ever green trees, transplanted from a neighboring field, had been set out by the volunteers.— The cooking and eating Were done in the rear, and the tents and sidewalks were kept dean and swept. 1 was sorry to learn from Colonel Wright that bis .Regiment had suf fered considerably from measles, as had the Fourth Georgia Regiment, Colonel Doles.

The Harriet Lane attacked the battery, which is in tin unfinished condition, and fired thirty-four shots at it, one of which disabled one of our guns. The battery returned the compliment in gallant style, firing twenty six shots, and compelling the steamer to take to her heels. What her damage was could not be ascertained; but, as she steamed off, it was discovered that she leant to one side, as if she had received a ball or two in her short ribs. “ Nobody hurt” on our side. The object of the attack was doubtless to learn the range and character of our guns. P. AY. A. Action Os llic ffililSik ill Cliai’lektOll oil the RcftoStiiions oi Site Atlanta Convention.

At the Convention of Delegates from Risks iu the Confederate States, held at At lanta, Georgia, on Monday, the od instant, among the proceedings adopted were resolu tions to the following effect, namely : “1. That this Convention do recommend to all the Hanks in the Southern Confedera cy to receive in payment of all dues to them the Treasury notes to be issued under the Act of Congress of Muy 16, 1 SGI, and to receive the same on deposit, and pay them out again to customers. “2. That until the said Treasury Notes can be prepared and issued, it is recommend ed that all the Banks do agree to advance to the Government, iu current notes, such sums severally as may be agreed upon between them and the Secretary of the Treasury; the said advance to be made on the deposit with the Banks of Treasury Notes, of large denomination, or eight per cent, stock or bonds. “That all the Banks in the Southern Confederacy are earnestly requested to take immediate action on the foregoing resolu tions, as a measure of the greatest import ance to the Government and the people, and communicate the same without delay to the Secretary of the Treasury at Richmond.” The measure of receiving and paying out the Treasury Notes of the Confederate State-, as recommended in the Jirst of the foregoing resolutions, having been consider ed by flic several Banks of this city, a meet ing of Committees representing them was held on Tuesday afternoon, llth instant, at the Planters and Mechanics Bank, for the purpose of reporting to each other their sev eral actions thereon. The Banks being called upon to report in order, it appeared that the recommendation had been considered and agreed to by all. Whereupon, the Chairman was instructed to communicate their action to the lion, the Secretary of the Treasury. The recommendation contained in the sec ond of the foregoing resolutions of the At lanta Convention had been anticipated by our Banks, and their resolution on the sub ject communicated to the Secretary of the Treasury on the 31st of May, by Geo. A. Trcit iudm, Esq., Chairman of a meeting of our Bank Committees, held on that day.— Further action was, therefore, unnecessary.

Hurrah ! For Dixie’s land we’ll take our stand, And live or die for Dixie !” Ac. Now, I do not wish to spoil a pretty illu sion, but the real truth is that Dixie is an indigenous Northern negro retrain, as com mon to the writer hereof as t lie lamp post in New York city, seventy or seventy five years ago. It was one of the every day illusi ns of boys, at that time, in all of their out door sports. And no one ever heard of Dix ie’s land being other than Manhattan Island until recently, when it lias been erroneously supposed to refer to the South from its con ucotioii with pathetic negro allegory. When slavery existed in New York, one “ Dixy” owned a large tract of land on Man hattan Island, and large numbers of slaves. The increase of the slaves and the increase of the abolition sentiment caused an emigra tion of the slaves to more thorough and se cure slave sections, and the liegros who were thus sent off (many being born there) natu rally looked back to their old homes, where they had lived in clover, with feelings of re gret, as they eould not imagine any place like Dixy’s. Hence it became synonymous with an ideal locality combining ease, comfort and material happiness of every description. In those days negro singing and minstrelsy were in their infancy, and any subject that could be brought into a ballad was eagerly picked up; this was the case with Dixie,”— It originated in New York, and assumed the proportions of a song there. In its trav els it has been enlarged, and has “gathered moss;” it has picked up a note here and there; a “chorus” has been added to it, and from an indistinct “ chant” of two or three notes, it has become elaborate melody; but the fact that it is not a southerfl song “ can not be rubbed out,’ the fallacy is so popular to the contrary that. I have thus beep at pains to state the real origin of it. • P. [A r cic OrleAtu Delta. Newport News Point. —The organiza tion of the name of this Point, ffltely made notorious by the advance of force, is thus explained ; <• “The early colony on James Riwer was at one time reduced to a straightened condition, aud some of its members start® down the Janies River with the intention of proceeding to England. They leaohed the bend in the lliver, which is at present an object of iuterest, and paused for some days. When they were about to set sail, they aw a ship coming up the Roads bearing the British ensign. They delayed till it should arrive. It proved to he Ford Newport s ship, with his Lordship on board, who brought the intelligence that the ship which the colony had long before dispatched to England for supplies, and which was many months overdue, was near at baud, bringing milch necdod relief. Meantime, his Lord ship distributed provisions among the colon ists, who, from these circumstances, named the place “Newport News,” on account of the good tidings which his Lordship brought to them.” An lucideut of Fort Sumter. Most of our readers are aware that we have in our office a Dinety-six pound shell, which was fired from the steamer Monticello upon the Manchester Aitillery,on the occasion of her attack on Sewell’s Poiut. In connec tion with this incident, a gentleman who was present at the battle of Fort Snuiter, states that one of these dangerous missiles entered that fortification just above the magazine, but outside of it desended through a block ut granite ten or twelve inches thick and ex ploded, one of its fragments, weighing nearly twenty pounds striking the door of the ma*r azine and so bending it inwards that it was afterwards found impossible to close it with out the aid of ti mechanic. Within a few hours of this occurrence a red hot shut from Fort Moultrie passed through the outer wall of the magazine, peueirated the inner wall to the depth of four inches, aud theu fell to the ground. All this time grains of powder, spilled by the men iu passing to and from the casemate aud magazine were lying loose ly upon the floor, which ignited by a spark, would have blown the structure into atoms. Throughout that entire engagement, so hotly and obstinately contested, the baud of provi dence ivas everywhere equally visible.— Deathdealing balls flew in every direction. Men beard them whistle by their ears, and had the earth torn up around their feet.— Groups were spattered with the mud and dust of plunging thirty-two pounders, and splinters of wood and iron rained among the unflinching soldiers with such murderous ve hemenie that nothing but a higher power could have prevented them from harm ; yet “ nobody was hurt.” Let us hope that the God of battles, who lias thus far been so gracious, may still direct our efforts and car ry us safely through the storm of war. In this connection we may mention that Lieut. Valentine, of the Uonfederate Army, who commanded one of the batteries on Sul livan's Lsland, which did most effective work in this battle, is now in this city, at the Ex change Hotel. On account of his labors in the fortifications around Fort Sumpter for the last four months and a half, lie has re ceived a furlough of thirty days from Gener al Beauregard ; but like a true soldier, he proposes to occupy his time upon the fields of Virginia lie lias no particular place to light, but will leave in a day or two for Ma nassas, as the liveliest scene of operations, to take bis chance of “mixing in” miscellane ously.—Richmond Dispatch. Smooth IJ'ire Miiskeh-Old Virgin ia Rifle aud Sabre. It is the opinion of experienced officers of the reguhir service that the smooth bore musket is a better weapon for volunteers than the rifled musket. This is said to have been the opinion also of Gen. Jackson, who was something of a judge of guns. Although its range is less, and its accuracy wdien firing at, small objects is not so great as a rifled musket in the hands of a good rifle shot, yet, in firing at masses at ordinary range and with unpracticed troops it is more efficient, iu as much as it can be loaded with more rapidity, does not foul, carries both ball and buckshot, and is not so delicate and so liable to get out of order as the Minie musket. The old Virginia rifle, which has been east into the shape of late by what arc called “ improved arms,” has been found to be identical with the new English rifle, which is so highly approved in Europe. After ail the progress made in weapons ot destruction, there is none to this day more formidable than the old Virginia rifle. It is a curious fact, too, that the Cavalry Sword, manufac tured at the Virginia Armory in this city, fifty years ago, is about the exact pattern, in every respect, of the most approved United States Government sword now in use.— Strange as it may appear, our two weapons ot war manufactured in the Old Dominion more than half a century ago, one of which ( the rifle, ) notwithstanding all the improve ments in destructive implement#, has lately been adopted and pattented in England, and the other (the sword) is identical in almost every respect with the requirements ot the late United States Government. —Richmond Enquirer. Arm*. To show the superiority us the improved (Aver the common musket, we make a few extracts from an article in the North British Review, for August, 1858, entitled “ Our Army in India.” American publication, p. 119. By the practice at the School at Ilythe, it is proved that with the Minie a more effec tive fire was given at a thousand yards than was given with the patrouage appointed Gen eral’s weapon, the Brown Bess of eighty.— The cavalry man who approaches the charg ing distance of two hundred yards, within three hundred yards of the Minie, in well trained hands, will breathe his last; so that, for the future, there will be an end of the practice of bayonet charges. From India we now hear of the ‘withering fire of the Minie,’ the ‘dreadful Minie,’ of its having silenced first class artillery, wielded by gun ners of our own training.” “As example of the power of the new weapon, an instance is stated as of recent oc currence in India, where a company of Min i* s, finding a company of Sepoys come with in range, felled the whole like a wall, one man alone getting away when a marksman stepped out and felled hint also.” In the Crimea, it is said a Captain fired more than a hundred times, and uu enemy was seen to fall after every shot.
