The Mississippi Baptist siys his mission was en tirely successful. He negotiated an arrangement by which these tribes will dissolve their connec tion with the United States Government, and be come connected with the Confederate States, with a different political status than that they have had. llertofore they have been only tenants at will, liable to he dispossessed whenever the exi gencies of a grasping civilization demanded.

Scarce had the clock struck the hour of twelve announcing that the mystic hour of midnight had arrived, and Monday morn ing the liist day of July, 18G1, would soon he ushered in, when the shrill cry of “fire,” was sounded in our streets. The lateness of the hour—few people, save the police and members of the printing craft being up; several minutes clasped before the alarm became general. Engine and church hells soon pealed forth their warning notes which aroused the most profound sleeper. When first discovered, the tire which orig inated on the roof of the store occupied by Messrs. Youngblood & Harris on Cotton Avenue, was not larger than a man’s hand, but a stiff breeze setting in from the West it soon communicated to the adjoining buildings. The streets now presented an animated scene, being densely crowded with our citizens who were generously en deavoring to save from the fiery waves, all the goods they possibly could. Y oung America Engine Company, true to the spirit of that name, was first on the spot. Soon our other engine companies came up, and a desperate assault was made upon the ignitiuous invader, hut such was the fierce ness and progress of the flames that our gallant firemen were forced to retreat at several points. The flames successfully progressed from Youngblood & Harris’ to Wheeler A Wilbur's thence to Bearden & Caines’ and MeCallie A: Jones’ and was finally checked by the allied forces at a ‘-mall wooden building, the lower part of which was occupied by W. B. Heath, as a liar room. Too much praise cannot be awarded our brave firemen for their noble efforts to check the destroyer’s course.— When the conflagration was at its height, the scene presented was grand and sub lime. The ehureh spires in the vicinity were brilliantly illuminated by the glare of the flame, and a continuous cloud kept booming up in all the grandeur of its Iri descent splendor, while the countless host of cinders and flakes that followed in its wake appeared as if they were millions of stars, the whole resembling after a few moments contemplation a magnificent dis- • dving view. .

Bragg, he was good enough to say lie would send down one of ! his Aides decamp and horses e illy in the morning to give me a look at the works. From the London Times, flr. Russell Visits General Bragg. The skipper returned from shore with an orderly who l might the needful per mission to haul the Diana alongside the wharf, where 1 landed, and was conducted by an aid of the Quartermaster General through the shady streets of this graceful little village, which covers an inclosure of 300 acres, and, with tlie adjoining forts, cost the United States over <£6.000,000 sterling, which may have something to do with tlie President’s determination to hold a property under so heavy an hypotheca tion. Irish landlords, with encumbered estates, have no such simple inode of ob taining an acquittal. The Navy-yard is, properly speaking, a settlement of exceedingly neat detached houses, with gardens in front, porticos, pillars, verandahs, and Venetian blinds to to aid the dense trees in keeping off the scorching ra? s of the sun, which is intense ly powerful in the summer, aiul is now blazing so fiercely as to force one to admit the assertion the average temperature is as high as that of Calcutta to be Tcry proba ble. The little grass plots under these trees are covered with neat piles of cannon halls, mostly of small size; two obsolete mortars—one dated 177G—are placed in the main avenue Tents are pitched un der the trees* and the houses arc all occu pied by officers, who are chatting, smok ing, and drinking at the open windows. A number of men in semi-military dresses of various sorts and side arms are lounging about tlie quays and the lawns before the houses. Into one of these I am escorted, and find myself at a very pleasant mess, of whom the greater number are officers of the Zouave Corps from New Orleans— oue, a Dane, lias served at Idstedt, Kiel, Fredcrielistadf, another, foreigner lias seen service in South America, another has fought in lialfthe insurrectionary wars in Europe. The wine is abundant, the fare good, the laughter and talk are loud. Ylr. Davis lias been down all day from Montgomery, accompanied by YIrs. Davis, Mallory, and Ylr. Wigfall, anil they all think his presence means immediate ac tion. The only ship here is the shell of tho old Fulton, which is on the stocks, but the works of the Navy Yark are useful in casting shot, shell, and preparing muni tions. An aide decamp from Gen. Bragg entered as we were sitting at table, and invited me to attend him to the General’s quarters. The road, as I found, was very long and very disagreeable, owing to the depth of the sand, into which the foot sank at every step up to the ankle. 1‘assing along the front of an extended row of the clean, air}-, pretty villas inside the Navy Yard, we passed the gate on exhibiting our passes, and proceeded by the sea beach, one side of which, is lined with houses, a few yards from the surf. These houses are all occupied by troops, or are used as bar-rooms or magazines. At in tervals a few guns have been placed along the beach, covered by sand bags, para pets, and traverses. As we toiled along i-n the sand, tlie Aid bailed a cart, pressed it into the service, and we continued our journey less painfully. Suddenly a tall, straight-backed man in a blue frockcoat, with a star on the epaulette strap, a smart kepi, and Dowsers with gold stripe, and large brass spurs, rode past on a high step ping powerful charger, followed by an or derly. “There’s Gen. Bragg,” said his Aid. The General turned round, reined up, and I was presented as 1 sat in my state chariot. The commander of ‘the Confederated States’ Arm}’ at Pensacola, is about 42 years of age, of a spare and powerful frame; bis face is dark, and mark ed with deep lines, his mouth large, and squarely set in determined jaws, and his eyes, sagacious, penetrating, and not by any means unkindly, look at you, from beetle brows, which run straight across and sprang into a thick tuft of black hair, which is thickest over the nose, where natuiallyit usually leaves an intervening space. His hair is dark, and he wears such regulation whiskers as were the delight of our Generals a few years ago. His man ner is quick and frank, and his smile is very pleasing and agreeable. Tlie Gen eral would not bear of my continuing my journey to his quarters in a cart, and his orderly brought up an ambulance, drawn by a smart pair of. inules, in which I com pleted it satisfactorily. The end of the journey through the sandy plain was at hand, for in au in closure of a high wall there stood a well- shaded mansion, amid trees of live oak and sycamore, with sentries at the gate and horses held by orderlies under the portico. Gey. Bragg received me at the top of the steps which led to the verandah, and after a few earnest and compliment ary words, conducted ine to his office, where he spoke of the contest in which lie was to play so important a part, in terms of unaffected earnestness. YVhy else had he left his estates? After the Ylexican war he had retired from the United States’ Artillery; but when his State was men aced, he was obliged to defend her. He was satisfied the North meant nothing but subjugation. All he wanted was peace. Slavery was an institution for w hich he was nut responsible, but bis property was guarantied to him by law, aud it consisted of slaves. YVhy did the enemy take off slaves from Tortngas to work for them at Pickens? Because whites could not do their work. It was quite impossible to deny his earnestness, sincerity, and zeal as lie spoke, and one could only wonder at the difference made by the '‘stand-point” from which the question is reviewed. Gen. Bragg Anally, before we supped, took down bis plans and showed me the position of every gun in his works and all his bat teries. He showed the greatest clearness of unreserved openness in his communica tions, and was anxious to point out that lie had much greater difficulties to contend with than Gen. Beauregard at Charleston. The inside of Pickens is well-known to him, as ho was stationed there the very- first tour of duty which he had after he left West Point. It was late at night when I returned on one of the General’6 horses towards the Navy-yard. The or derly who accompanied me was, he said, a Mississippi planter, bat he had left his <% Soldier'* Emotion in bnlllr. Our citizen soldiers inexperienced ill tlie Rattle field will find the most terrible moments just be fore the combat begins. A soldier in l’t* narration of personal adventures in tlie Mexican war. pub lished iu “Howe’s Achievements of Americans, gives some interesting items on this head in his description of the battle of Palo Alto, tlie opening battle of the war. When all w as ready, both armies stood still for about twenty minutes, each willing lor the other to begin the work of death, and during this time I did not see a single man of the enemy move ; they stood l.kc statues. We remained quiet with two exceptions, Gen Taylor, followed bv his staff, rode from left to right at a slow pace, with his leg thrown over like a woman, and as he pas-ed each regiment, bespoke words of encouragement. I know not what he said to the others, but when lie came to where we s'ood, he looked steadily at us ; I suppose, to see what effect the novel circumstances iu which we were placed had upon us, and, ns he gazed, he said; “The bayonet, my hardy rocks', the bayonet is the thing!” The other occasion was that of Lieut. Blake,of the Engineers, who volunteered to gallop along the enemy’s line, in front of both armies, and count their guns ; and so close did he go that he might have been shot a hundred times One of the officers of the enemy, doubtless think ing lie had some communication to make, rode out to meet him. Blake, however paid no attention to him, but rode on, and then returned and re ported to Taylor. Thus stood those two belligerent armies face to face. What were the feelings of those thousands! How many thoughts and fears were crowded into those few moment*.' Look at our men! a dam- >‘riiriii-»l Uinta lor %olnnteer». MILITARY SURGERY.. A practical surgeon ccmmmunicates tlie fol- DI&. lowing .seasonable hints to army surgeons, sol- Jiers nml sewing circles: I/hit Is Almost good tor nothing to stop bleeding from h sabre or gu*»sbot wound. It sticks to the wound and has to be pul'ed out almost thread by thread. Sponge pressed into a wound with some irttle force is one of the best means to stop bleed ing. Two small sponges furnished to each sol dier would be bet’er thau a bushel of lint. Man ufactured lint is used to spread ointment upon in dressing stumps after amputation, wouuds of grerU extent, «&c.; but cotton flannel is as good, if not better, and a great deal cheaper. A rag wet in cold water is the Ust dressing for a gun shot or sabre wounds. Holler bandages are of scarce ly anv u<e for tlie private soltlitr. Hear what G. J. Guthrie, smgeon to the Duke of Wellington, says of them : “Aroller, as a surgical application, is useless, if not injurious At the first and second battle ill Portugal, every wound had a roller applied over it, which soon became stiff', bloody and dirty. They did no good, were cut off with scissors, and thus rendered useless. When really wanted at a later period they were not forthcoming. A large “bundle” handkerchief for each soldier is better than any roller. It should he large enough to tie round the largest thigh and leave plenty of slack. This can be used as a torniquet when a wound bleeds fast. Roll up a stone (or some bullets) in tlie middle of the handkerchief; tie the handkerchief loosely around the limb above the wound, so that the stone wiil lie upon the artery, which is on the inside of the limb ex cept’at the knee, where it is behind iu the ham; stick the bayonet, sword or ramrod through the slack of the handkerchief, aud twist up till the blood stops. Hold it so till seen by the surgeon, slackening a little from time to time if the limb is numb. Rollers provided for hospilal use should be made of strong, coarse cotton, full six yards, long, without seam, and never more than two inches and a quarter wide. A wide bandage 1ms to he torn in two, and a part wasted. “Soft linen” is a popular superstition. Again, sticking plaster is more useful than bandages. Common plaster spread in rolls of five yards is good enough for ordinary purposes.

There is, therefore, little hope of ail end of the war by a decisive battle or a short campaign. Another possible end of the war is one that it may now be talked of freely, though a tew weeks since it was impossible to mention it. We lately published a very mild letter from a St Louis cor respondent. suggestinga possible peace by com promise. The Hartfoid Times copied it, and the Hartford Courant burst like a thunder cloud on the Times, charging them with treason, and flatly pronouncing it to be treason in any one to propose a compromise before we had finished the war! But we are living in cooler times. Another possible end of the war is in the oc currence of another revolution at the South.

A series of resolution were adopted. are tho moments when the absolute coward suffers more timn death—when, if not certain he would he shot in his tracks, lie would turn and flee.

There should be iron cross pieces, to keep the sacking almost tense, made to slip over the ends of the poles.

The Military Nurse Corps assembled to hear a h'ctuie by Professor Paine. Dr Paine exhibited few rolls of bandage, which will he most useful in times of war. The Professor remarked that perienced some of the excitement of a soldier in after the first shock, a change was apparent in the battle.

Is there a sane American j eX p ress the grateful thanks of the Conven- dead to every emotion hut the ouerwliolming fear of instant death. We had a few, mid but a few of such in our army. As the two armies were facing each other, it was remarkable to see (he coolness of our men. there they stood, chewing hits of biscuits, and talking about the Mexicans—some wondering if they would fight; others allowing that they would, and like demons, etc. I kept my eye on the artillery ot the enemy, and happened to he looking toward their right wing'when suddenly a white curl ot smoke sprang up there from one of their guns, and then I saw the dust fly some dis tance in front, where the ball struck. Insiantly another, and another riel* curl of smoke arose, succeeded by a booming sound, and the shot came crashing towards us. The enemy fired very rapid ly; and their halls knocked tlie dust about us in all directions—some went over our heads, others struck the ground in front and bounded away. Our batteries now went to work, and poured in upon them a perfect storm of iron ; Lieut Chttich- ill and his men began with their eighteen pound ers, and when the first was fired, it made such a loud report that our men gave a spontaneous shout, which seemed to inspire us with renewed confi dence. I could hear every word the Lieutenant said to his men. When tlie first shot was fired, lie watched the hall, saying, “Too high, men; try another !"—‘ too low, men ; try again—the third time is the charm!'’ The third shot was fired, and I saw with my own eyes the dreadful effect of that and the following shots. “That's it, my boys!” shouted Churchill, jumping up two feet; “you have them now! keep at that;” and so they did, and every shot tore complete lanes through the enemy’s lines ; hut they stood it man fully. The full chorus of battle now raged : twenty-three pieces of artillery belched forth their iron hail. We were ordered to lie down in the grass to avoid the shot; this puzzled the enemy, and they could not bring their gnns to besr upon us. making our loss very small. Many were the narrow es capes; one fell came within six inches of my left side. The force of the shot was tremendous : a horse's body was no obstacle at all; a man’s leg was a mcie pipe stem. 1 watched tlie shot as it struck the roots of the grass, and it was astonish- ing how the dust flew. In about an hour the grass caught on fire, and the clonnds of smoke shut out the opposing armies from view. We liad not as yet lost a man from our regiment. In the obscurity the enemy changed their line, and the eighteen pounders, supported by our regiment, took a new position on a little rise ot ground. As we moved on to the spot, a six pronnd shot carried away the lower jaw of Capt. Page, and then teok off a man's head on the right, as clean as with a knife. The blood of poor Page was the first biood I saw; he was knocked down in tho grass, and as he endeavored to raise himself, he presented such a ghastly spectacle that a sickly fainting sensation came over me, and the memory of that sight I shall carry witti me to my dying.day. A little, later, Major Ringgold was mortally wounded at his battery; I saw him just after it. The shot had torn away a portion ot the flesh of his thighs: its force was tremendous, cutting off both his pis tols at the locks, and also the withers of his horse —a splendid steed which was killed to relieve him of his misery. The enemy tried hard, but with out avail, to hit our eighteen pounders. The bat tle continued until night put an end to the scene. We bivouacked where we were, and laid on our arms; wc slept, however, hut little, thinking we might be attacked in our sleep. The enemy had been very severely handled, owing to the superiority of our aitillery. The gunners went into it more like butchers than mil itary men; each slipped off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and tied his suspenders around his waist; they all wore red flannel shirts, and. theiefore, were in uniform. To see them limbering and un limbering, firing a lew shots, then dashing through the smoke, and then to lire again with lightning- like rapidity, partly hid from view by dense clouds of smoke aud dust, w ith their dark red shirts and naked arms, yelling at every shot they made, re minded me of a band of demonds rather than men.

South n certain line, men flew to arms for one view of the case—North of the liue they were as swift and ardent on the other side— so that within a few days the entire country was ranged on one or the other side. Woe then to the man who differed from his neighbors. Might made right for a week, and North as well as South the country was ruled by the rampant public sen timent The dividing line seemed dislinct and plain — The mass ot men at the North, said, “we will up hold the flag ” ‘The Northern sentiment was an outburst of patriotic love for the country, the whole country, and the flag untarnished, with every star in it. It was no time to discuss nice political questions. It was no time to suggest how the trouble might have been avoided. It v.as enough to know that the men of the Nortli had deteimined that the threat to occupy Wash ington should he proved an empty boast, and that the minds of men were bent on a signal punish ment of those who had shot down the old flag at Sumter. No one asked what are we fighting for—for no one had time for discussion of questions of pol itics. But a change has come over all this, and the question “What are we fighting for ?” is on the lips of all citizens, and is answered in various ways by men of various sentiments. There are those who say we are lighting “to subjugate the South,” “to abolish slavery,” “to exterminate the rebels-” and the like. But the great body of the North have before them an objeet which ought to be calmly, clearly and distinctly enunciated to the South and to the world at large. The objeet is the preservation of the government and the Con stitution of the* United States, and thus the pre- aerva’ion of tlie blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. Al present the prevalent idea, desire, and in» tent kin is. that this should be accomplished hy restoring the authority of the constitutional gov ernment over all the territory from Maine to the Gulf, over which it has heretofore held its peace ful and benignant sway. Whether this result can ever he accomplished by means of war, is a ques tion which no man fails to discuss in his secret thoughts, and on that question many thousands of patriotic men are now pondering with the deepest anxiety. It is not onr present design to discuss the ordi nary points, w hether a conquered se«tion will ev er be a desirable pait. of our Union, or whether, havihg overrun the South with our soldiery, wo can ever make it a peaceful land, or w hether the conquering of it would after all be worth so much to the country as one of tlie thousands of lives it would cost; hut we desire to ask men of thought, men of influence, citizens, nnd therefoie rulers in America, to consider the question whether the grand obiect may not he attained in another, a better and a a less costly way. We know the strength of this terrible sentiment at tho North, “crush ihe traitors; no compromise with treason : whip them first, and compromise afterward.” We know that the man who to-day dares talk of compromise, will bo branded as a traitor hy thousands of indignant enthusiasts, but we know also tin t there a.re thousands on thous ands of bleeding hearts, North aud South, aching to come together aud settle this awful quarrel ill a friendly way. who believes that any ainounr of physical firree will ever prevail to make Union men out of Amer icans who don't choose to be such! Can you s!arve them into it? Can you light them into it? Is there the remotest hope that a long -war will make friends out of enemies? So long as the Nortli stands where it stood six months ago, and says to the South “you must yield, hack down from all this, and give it lip, we will not give you any excuse, any plea, any argument by which to move your doubting friends, you must give up at once,” — so oilgas the North maintains this ground, just so long the war will continue. We do not believe, if the South were successful and overran the North with their armies, that a Northern man would lay down his arms so long as there remained a rock to hide behind while ho fired, or a moun tains side from which to hurl down stones on his foes. Nor do we believe any less: of Southern men. When Jackson overcame the South Carolinians in the matter of the revenue laws, it will ho re membered that the tariff hill was changed, and thus an excuse was given to the rebels for laying down their arms. Too many peisons forgot this important part of the nullification contest. In all wars between equal or nearly equal pow ers, tho rule has been to ask everything, but to be content with a small part of the demand. In all contests the necessity of a compromise in the end is absolute. It is not in oDe of a thousand wars that any result is reached otherwise. Air. Grrgorr’s View*. - Mr. Gregory, M. P., has written a letter to the London Times, giving reasons for wishing the Confederate States to be recognized. We copy the following extract: I advocate, lastly, the recognition of the South- ern Confederacy, because I believe in their right to assert their independence. In spite of the let ters of your able and most respected correspon dent, Mr. Motley, I should have shown from the earliest days of American independence down to the present time, the doctrine of State Sovereign ty has been heid hy some of the most eminent Americans, and that, though it has been chiefly a Southern doctrine, yet it was endeavored hy the North to put into execution seventeen yeais ago before South Carolina, in 1832, attempted to fol low the example. Mr.. Motley has forgotten ap parently the Hartford Convention in 1815, when State rights resolutions were passed and secession fully meditated ; he has also forgotten what oc curred in tlie State Legislature of Massachusetts, when one branch of the Legislature declared Masshchusetts to be out of the Union, should Texas be admitted into ie. Then, as to commercial considerations. The Moirill tariff is announcement of th breaking up of the commercial intercourse between the United States and Europe. It is the successful issue ol Northern policy, against which the South has in variably, hut in vain, protested The s* paration nullifies that selfish, short sighted retrogade poli cy, and the Western States ought to be thankful for any event likely to break down a system so ui fi-rly opposed to their interests. When the com mercial treaty with France was discussed Iasi year, one of the points mainly insisted on by Mr Bright aud the advocates of this measure was this; that evi ry order for French goods was an additional link in that chain hy which commerce was to hind the countries in coustant amity, and I entirely and cordially concur with Mr. Bright in that opinion. There are but two countries likely to come into collision with Englaud—France and the United States. With France we have done our best, by means of increased commercial intercourse, to promote aud establish peace. Hitherto the vast mercantile transactions between Englaud the United States have, in spite of per petunl suojects of dispute between us, rendered war impossible, hut a Morill tariff will soon change this state of things. I have here endeavored to give a sketch of the objects I had in view in nrging the recognition of the Southern Confederacy. I should have done this with perfect good feeling towards the North, and with the most hearty desire for its prosperity I should not li«ve recommended isolated action on the part of England, but that whatever step in take should he, as far as possible, in conjunction with the other great Lowers of Europe. The misery of Coventry last winter, owing to the change of a fashion, must warn ns of what may happen if five millions of our fellow country- men are thrown out of employment by the .short supply of the raw material for our cotton mantt factures. The revenue from tobacco is very large; the supply may be stopped, and we may then re gret the loss of the paper duties. There are held hy our countrymen sixty millions sterling ol American securities; If this war he protracted, can they expect to receive either principal or in terest ? And if in this particular instance we de part from our usual practice ot recognizing as in dependent a Slate possessing a dr. facto govern ment and all the elements of permanency and progress, can we suppose that Fiance will follow our example and become dependent on England —for such would be the case—for every pound of cotton she requires 7 I cannot hut believe the interests of France and England to be identical in this American question, and that the recognition by three two great powers of the Southern Con federacy would cause tho war party in the North to pause before plunging their countrymen deeper into the sad struggle. I ain confident, however, that when calmer rejection shall have succeeded to that storm of passion now sweeping over the North, the citizens of the United States will see that those who, like myself, advocate the recog nition of the new republic, do so not from any hostility towards them, nor from any advocacy of slavery, hut from love of peace and unrestricted commerce, from horror of civil war and future years of deadly hatred; and whatever hard words may ho used towards us at present, I am convin ced hereafter that we shall be considered their sin cere friends.
