When this is effected, the bottle is removed from the fire and cooled, where upon the ammonia in the second vessel rapidly .assumes a gaseous form and ab stracts so much heat from the water by which it is surrounded as to freeze a con siderable quantity. The operation may be repeated without disconnecting the re torts, until a sufficient amount of water is frozen. Ice made in this way is said not to cost more than ten cents a hundred weight. —i — Troops for Pensacola.—We understand that 6ve hundred troops for Florida will arrive at Columbus. Georgia, about the 7th ; the quota from Georgia, consisting of about 1,000, will rendezvous at Macon, and as soon as tents and equipments can be furnished them, will march direct to Pen sacola. Two regiments from Mississippi, in all about 1.700 men. are now on their way to that point. They go by the way Mobile, and thence across the country from Ulakely. The Louisiana regiment, consisting of over 1,000 men, are now pre pared to move, and will leave in a short iime. There are now 1,700 men at the spot which the "philosophic” Greely calls another Sevastopol, and where he says the “rebelli.«u” is to be crushed out; and when the leinforcements now on the way and preparing to move roach there, the whole number will be about 6,000 of as brave and gallant spirits as ever deter mined to sacriiice their lives, if necessary, for the honor and independence of their conn t ry.—Mon tgomery Advert her.

Judge Longstreet thereupon addressed a written appeal to the Governor and those officers associated with him, basing liis argument on this information, to withhold the first blow. It had its effect—uo attack was made. On the morning of the 8th the Constitution newspaper contained a tele graphic dispatch from New York, that the Star of the West had sailed from that place with two hundred and fifty soldiers on board bound for Fort Sumter. This was the very first intimation 1 had received from any quarter that additional troops had been ordered or sent. This informa tion to me was not "official.” It was a fact conveyed with electric speed to every part of the Confederacy, known to be true by every well-informed man in tlie city of Washington, as soon as known by. mo. While engaged in writing my resig nation in the presence of Judge Black, then Secretary of State, a dispatch was received from Judge Longstreet making inquiry as to the sailing of the Star of the West, with additional troops. Honor, truth, justice to myself and Judge Long street, required of me the reply I made— that the Star of the West bad sailed with reinforcements and ought then to be in Charleston. I make this statement for the reader, not for Mr. Holt, because Mr Holt knew, when he asserted that I, "while yet a member of the Cabinet, dis closed to those in open rebellion against the United States, information which I had I derived frem my official position, and which i I held under the seals of a confidence that | from the beginning of our history as a na tion bad not been violated,” be uttered a ( vile falsehood and calumny. But Mr. Holt inserts in bis communica- J tion my letter of resignation and the j President's reply, tho very point in issue in which was, that this expedition of the t Star of the West was fitted out without | knowledge, in violation of an express un derstanding. But, when the President ad mitted in bis reply that he expected my resignation when this disclosure was made, and as I did not resign, of course I did not understand as he thought he expressed himself. And as I well knew the acting Secretary of War, in his eagerness to crush out those whom he considered "in open rebellion,” was ready to seize upon any loose expression of the President to justify himself in adopting any suggestion of General Scott, which he supposed would cffccl that end, I did not choose to push a controversy with the President involving a question of veracity. But if Mr. Holt intends to be understood, by quoting this correspondence, that this order which the President claims to have made, was the “official” information held by me under the seal of confidence, and which I communi cated, I pionounce him a dishonorable and unqualified falsdier. All my correspon dence with the President has never been published, and I append a copy of that portion which has not yet been printed, and hope you will insert it in your paper as a part of this letter On Wednesday the 2d of January, the question of sending reinforcements to Fort •Sumter was formally discussed in Cabinet. The letters of Major Anderson were read, and as the inferences drawn from them were different by the se eral members, the President decided that a special mes senger should be sent to Maj. Anderson to learn his true condition, and suggested to Mr. Holt several intermgatoiies to be propounded to him. This conclusion was reached as admitted by every member of the Cabinet. As soon as this question was disposed of, the reply of the South Carolina commissioners was taken up, read and returned. After that the con versation was desultory, and if the Presi dent used the expression that ‘ reinforce ments must not be sent,” it is certain that neither .Judge Black, Gov. Thomas, or myself heard the remark. These aio the only two members of the Cabinet with whom I have had a special conversation on thie particular subject. It is certain, however, that the then acting secretary of war, moved upon by Gen. Scott, did in augurate this secret expedition of the Star of the West, with the belief that he could throw two hundred and fifty sold iers into Fort Sumter bj stealth. It is also certain that the President ordered the sending of troops to be arrested, and in trusted tlie carrying out of this counter mand to Mr. Holt. It is also certain that this order of the President was made in full time to have arrested the expedition, if all parties bad promptly discharged their duty. It is certain that it did so happen that the Star of the West set sail without receiving the order of counter mand ; and it is certain that after her re turn to New York, it was evident to all that the sending of her was a great mis take. I deal with tlie facts, not the rea soning involved in this transaction. It is further certain that history will not record this expedition as one of those brilliant strategctic movements which will mark the military career of the lieutenant-gen eral, though he was confidingly sustained by the acting secretary of war. Mr. Holt concludes his remarkable com- mnnication by an appeal to the sympathy of the Union men of the South. He has forfeited al' claim to their consideration, and they will not extend to him their con fidence. He has waxed fat on their kind ness and patronage, it is true, but they will reject bis approaches with disdain, when he informs them that in adhering to their respective States, they are "in open rebellion ” They hold this a Govern ment of consent, and cannot be kept to gether by bis sovereign remedy of pow der and ball. They bold that the States are separate and independent parties to the compact which formed the General Government. That each State has the right to assert her independence whenever the safety of her people require it, and, in doing so, neither commits rebellion or trea son, as she owes no allegiance to the Gen eral Government as her sovereign, and that, therefore, tbe citizen in adhering to his State and yielding obedience to her commands, is neither a rebel nor a traitor. We all know if military force is used to subdue tbe seceded States, the question of African slavery is at once subordinated to the higher and greater one of making slaves of white men. Mr. Holt farther says, that he is den >un- ced throughout the south simply and sole ly because while in office, he refused to "blacken his soul with peijury." Now, if this be true, the Sooth is wrong; but what will they think o* him, when, on the very day he became a private citizen, lie consented to strike at the best friend he ever bad, in perfect disregard of God’s high command—"Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.” J.

America is thus getting her coffers full of European gold, wbilo the European manufacturers are suffering. At this inauspicious moment the Government of Washington is trying to pass a tariff bill which will kill off what remains of European trade, and rnin many of her manufacturers, while the new Confederacy offers Europe, as a compensation free trade. Is it strange, then, that we should see in the Government journals the words "new poli cy?” It is certain that since ten day*, all the jonrnais in the interest of the Government, in cluding the Moniteur, seem to be obeying a mot d' ordrt on this subject, for they all speak in the same tone against tho action of the Northern States, and in favor of that of the South.

There is a large crowd of sj eolators on the ground who oven grown insolent, and despite our frequent warning* and remonstrances, have assumed to ex ercise tiie right of regulating our domestic affairs, according to their own notions of propriety. Not. only so. tmt they have assumed to themselves ex clusive ownership and control over the whole ter- lit.irv of 1 he Union. \\ hen Southern blond and Southern valor had "•on a rich domain, and added it to the common territory, they appropriated it ail to their own use, and insisted on excluding the sous ot the South from all participation in it, iml* as they would cou nt to occupy it upon tettns o: inequality. \VV de- spare them When such men leave the endearments of home, and sacrifice their business—which amounts to m my thousand dollars yearly—to obey- rho call of their country, it would indeed seem to be the part of ordinary discernment to see that this foible of coercion which is talked of in Northern circles is utt. rly out of the question What a pity they cannot see secession as it is.— We learn that $3,1X10 was presented to the com panyon the eve of i s departure as a remembran cer, and an invitation to check again upon the same liberality whenever "good things” got scarce The parting of the Company from friends must have been pretty' hard, if we are permitted to judge by the remarks of one young man who ssid that he would be williug to attack Fort Pickens twice and fail each time, rather than to go through the trying ordeal of leaviug friends again What we say of the Sonthern Right* Guards is applicable to all the companies with whom we un acquainted. In the “Bainbridge InJepedents we noticed Col Munnerlyn, member to the Con vention from Decatur county, who is one ot the wealthiest planters in the State, and the whole company is composed of planters’ sons and worthy members of society. In the Quitman Guards, of Forsyth, we observe the same self-sacrificing spir it, as members of the bar. merchants and piantei ns from every inch ot it Nor was this ail. a por tion of their number invaded the soil ot a South ern sister Stan-, and attempted to incite insurrec tion and rebellion, and with fire and sword to spread devastation and ruin over die lair fields ot our native trufi'b A poweifu! political party sympathizing with this outrage and even deifying tile demons who perpetrated it, planting itself upon a freesoi! piatfutm and adopting for its watchword.

There is one thing clear, that if the Government resorts to force and a section al war, there must be a very strong and powerful party at the North opposed to them T his party constitutes the com mercial cities and monied men and those interested in the indus'rial pursuits of that section. The division being made at the North, compels the Government, in an issue of force, to rely exclusively upon tbe Black Republican party for the supply of men and money. Whereas, on the contrary, the Confederate States will pre sent one united and unbroken front, with no division, but all ready to defend their homes and their altars. In such an issue, there can be no doubt as to tbe final result. In addition to this, if there bean appeal to force, it will at once throw the Bor der Mates of the Southern country against the Black Republican party and the Gov ernment. In such a struggle as this, the total overthrow of the Government at Washington is inevitable, and revolution will be inaugurated in tbe Nortbern Mates, that must end in their entire and final destruction.— Charleston Courier, 3rd.

A ;•> tb« ’ » I Consiitutionuel goes so far as Important from Paris—a Fleet of War Mlramer* (o be seat (o the United State*— the French and English Governments < the gni rive. Paris, Sunday, March 10, 1861. The French and English Governments are fit- ling out a pvicirfut fleet of trar steamers for the t inted States The suggestion came from Eng land, and France will tuniisb on ber part three of btr first class new frigates; the English con tingent will perhaps be larger. The precise ob ject of this fleet it will be imposeible to ascertain, as it will probably sail with sealed orders. We may surm.se, however, that it is intended as an audience for the struggle which is soon to take place between brothers and tiiends in the United Slates—as a sort of escort of honor to the funeral of the Great Republic. The idea is SHid to have been provoked in the English Cabinet by the indignities offered to a British subject or subjects in the Southern Stales. We do not suppose, of course, tha tho fleet goes out with any nostile intent; its ostensible enand will be the protection of English and French sub jects. But it is the custom to send fleets ‘ of ob servation,” when any great war is going on in a foreign country, and while observing, to pick up any little advantages that may offer for them selves ; or when the sympathy of the fleet is all on one side, to send boats now and then acci dentally between the contending forces, as Eng land has twice done in tiie late (jiliciun war, so as to proioct a suheiing friend at the right moment. Spam, also, although not working in concert with France and England, is preparing to send to the waters of tbe Gulf of Mexico a formidable force ic men, ships, and materials. At a concert at the Tuitieries, two evenings ago, the Emperor again had a long conversation with Mr. Faulkner, on the present troubles in the United Suites. His raaiesty confined himself, however, to the asking ot questions, and did not express any opinions or sentiments of his own. At this same concert at the Palace, a high offi cer ot' the crown said to an American offieial : “So it seems your-Repubdc is going to pieces?” "f*h. no, 1 hope net yet," was the reply. “Yea, bttt it wili. No Republic ever stood so long, and never will. Bell government is a U opia, air, you must have a strong government as the only eon dilion ot along existence ” It has been told me, in the most positive manner that a bout hern gentleman lately arrived here, has had an interview with the Emperor, and has se cured for the Southern Confederacy a promise of recognition. He carries, also, in his p cket th, skeleton of a treaty which should have been sub mitted to his Msj'sty, and met his approval, as the hasia of ihe treaty which is to follow the of ficial recognition But 1 do not beli. ve one word of this whole story.

Butifwar is forced upon us, we are prepare I for it, and when once commenced, we swear by our altars, it shall never terminate till those who provoked it shall have been the greatest sufferers by it In its prosecution, should we be compelled, in self- defence, to "carry 'he war into Africa,” and seize the Federal Capitol, or even to devastate Northern cities, it will not be our fault. We have only asked to be permitted to depart in peace from those with whom we could no longer live in peace. In the language of Abram to Lott, we have said to our Northern brethren, Let there be no strife be tween ns we pray thee. Is not the whole land before thee? If thou wilt take the left hand, then we will go to the right, or if thou depart to the right hand, then we will goto the left. How have they responded to these peaceful overtures. They deny our right either to depart in peace from them or to live as equals in peace with them. They claim the right to execute their laws within our jurisdiction, to garrison our Forts with a black republican army, and to blocknke <mr cities with a black republican navy. Nay, more, they threaten to vindicate this assumed right at the mouth of the Cannon and the point of the bayonet You have railed soldiers, to meet them upon this ground, and if necessary to drive them back by force of arm* You are not called, however, to meet them tipon the *oil of Georgia, loi we are proud to know that no federal troop desecrates h>-r soil, and no federal flag waves overall) portion of her territory.

Hour the Japanese Restore Faded Flowers.—A Na- gaski correspondent of the New York Times writes: After a boquet is drooping beyond all remedies of fresh water, the Japanese can bring it back to all its first glory by a very simple and seemingly most destructive operation. Il.ai received some days ago a delightful bunch of flowers from a Ja panese acquaintance. They continued to live in their beauty for nearly two weeks. When at last they faded. Just as I was about to have them thrown away, the same gentleman, (Japanese gentleman) came to see me I showed him the laded flowers, and told him, that though lasting a long time, they had now become useless. “Oh, no,” said he ; “only put the ends of the stems into the fire, and they will be as goo 1 as before ” I was incredulous; so he took them himself and held the stems’ ends into tho fire until they were completely charred. This was in tbe morning; at evening they were again looking fresh and vig orous, and Lave continued so for another week. What may be the true agent in this reviving pro cess, lam unable to determine fully, wb'-ther it it be heat driving once more tbe last juices into tb- very leaflet Ritd vein, or whether it is the botinti fui supply of carbon furnished by the charring I am inclined, however, to the latter cause, as the lull effect was not produced until some eight hours afterwards, and as it seems that, if the heat was the principal agent, it must have been sooner followed by visible ebattges.

Camp ( >glethorpe was thronged with the elite of the city and sur rounding country A friend who surveyed the beautiful spectacle from an eminence, says that the thousand of gallant soldiery spenied lost in the vast crowd. The Governor, with his suite came upon the grounds at four o’clock in an open ba rouche escorted by the Bibb Cavalary, (’apt. Napier, and found the Regiment and Battalion drawD up in line with standards displayed. Af terreview they were marched in column by Com panics, (thirteen in number—the Dahlonega Com pany not having yet arrived—) past the Governor and staff. The Regiment and Battalion, were then formed into three sides of a hollow square, and an invitation extended to the spectators to fill up the intervening space, which was done with no little rspidity His Excellency then addressed the whole in the very appropriate speech we append below, which was frequently interrupted by the plaudits of the auditory and soldierv- The Governor's concluding address to the sold iery was most effective, and met with a stirring response from the gallant defenders of their coun try’s rights. They have, indeed, the reputation nnd honor of Georgia in their keeping. Who does not feel what lustre the gallant Palmetto Regiment in Mexico reflected upon South Caroli na, and how it was the misfortune of tbe Indiana Regiment to inflict a lasting stain upon the es cutcheon of that State ? The gallant Georgia Regiment and Battalion, nnmber in ranks many of the brightest intellects and most chivalrous spirits in the proud Empire State A large part of them leave homes of luxury, a*se and refinement, for the hard fare of the private soldier in camp One of the companies, the Bainbridge Volunteers, uniformed in coarse flannel shirts, and pantaloons of the coarses- negro cloth, are said to represent over a million of dollars in real and personal es tate. But we have no space for farther discourse. The following is the GOVERNOR’S ADDRESS Officers and Soldiers: The circumstances which have called for this rendezvous are of a peculiar character Onr fathers bequeathed to us thfe wisest and best Gov ernment on the face of the earth The founda tions upon which that Government was based, were the equality of the States, and the equal pro tretion of the rights of the citizens of every sec tion of the Union. Equality of sovereignty, equality of rights, and equality of protection, are all that the South ever demanded Site ha* borne much, and endured long, hut her stern decree has at 'ast gone forth, that with less than these she will never he content. In the hope of a return ing sense of justice on the part of the people of the Northern States, and for the sake of th- Un ion, the South has long submitted to unjnat Cou greasional legislation, which haa plundered her of millions of dollars annually, to build up and en rich her Northern confederates. Southern industry has been taxed for tbe ben efit of Northern interesjs, until our confederates and without drawing any invidious distinction. I can truly say, that for intelligence, refinement, high social position, and moral worth, this com pany cannot be excelled even in the great State of Georgia.

From the Richmond Enquirer. “They Will Noon Come Back.” So say the Abolitionists of the North and the Submissionists of the South, in speaking of the seceding States. Does any considerate man, of either section, really think so? Can any intelli gent individual, with the light now before him, believe in the possibility of the early return or even the final return, of the ‘’Confederate States of the South” to the L T nion controlled by'the abo lition power of the North? Snrely not. Those States withdrew from the Union upon grounds which amply justified them, iu tbe opinion of a candid world. Their Government is in successful operation, and its permanent establishment is con ceded as a fixed fact by foes as well friends. If is daily gaining strength and influence, and bids fair to become, at an early day, the great power of America. The notion, therefore, that the Southern Confederacy will soon come to an end. is ridiculous in the extreme. The man who expects to witness the return of South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama Louisiana, Florida, Mississippi and Texas, or any oneol them, to the government of New England, must be nearly related to the Egyptian traveller who waited oil the banks of the Nile for all the water to pass bv that he might walk over to the other side without wet-ing his foot. The idea that a stream so rapid as the Nile must soon discharge all its waters is about as sensible and as philosophic as snv which can be advanced in support of the probability of the early death of the Southern Confederacy. Like the famed river of Egypt, the Southern Confederacy has a pure and never failing source, and is destined in its course to irrigate for the most useful purposes, political, social com mercial and moral, a vest land. And it we cannot hope that it has as Jong a time to run as the charter of nature gives to the river of Egypt, we may yet reasonably expect, that, fouuded as it is, upon the eternal principles of light and justice and strength ened and sustained by an unfaltering tru-t in Di vine Providence, the Southern Confoderacy estab lished iu 1861. will long live.
