nts ago a crowd of them rushed down the street towards a house where they were informed a Secession flags was to be found. They filled the house at once with armed men, in the absence of the owner, a shop-keeper, and ransacked every apartment, in the most violent and riotous manner, to the great terror of the women. They were utterly void of all control and discipline, or were purposely let loose on the town. I do not exaggerate their behavior in the least. A man who cheered for Jeff. Davis was charged on by a soldier, and would have been bayonetted had not the butt of the musket been knocked down by a bystander. Some of the Union men of the town acted as guides to the troops, and indicated the houses which contained the "obnoxious Southerners." Bridges destroyed on the Baltimore & Chio Railroad. The following expensive bridges along the line of the road have been destroyed: Opequon Creek, 147 feet span; Sleepy Creek, 219 feet span; Patterson Creek, 145 feet span;

ield its consent to the decisions had upon that subject. Strange to say. European diplomatists had completely misunderstood this question; and impelled by a spirit of philanthropy, they were depriving weak States of their only means of defence in cases of maritime war. Through humanity the rights of private property were respected both at sea and on land. The United States, having no navy, could not recognize a principle which gave them no hold upon the enemy's commerce, while theirs would have been exposed to total destruction. The right of the Southern Confederation is incontestable. President Lincoln has promised to hang the corsairs of President Davis. This is simply nonsense. If the corsairs of the South are treated as pirates, the prisoners of war from the North may be regarded as brigands, and shot. The French editors of Le Monde (says the N. O. Catholic Standard) are much better informed than the Irish editors of Catholic papers in the United States.

g that has yet been done has been done by the leaded columns of the editorial Generals of the North, who being remote from danger and completely inaccessible to an enemy, have poured hot shot into our camp from Maryland to the Rio Grande, hung Jeff. Davis, Lee and Beauregard, several times; denounced as cowards the whole male population of the South, and abused the women — a fitting climax of newspaper demonianism; for, it must be admitted that, no matter what the provocation, the man who, safelayed by her people as great as that of the North for commerce. It was no nation of braggarts which the North soon found confronting her; it was a nation represented by such calm and self-poised minds, such high-souled and courteous gentlemen as Davis, Lee, Beauregard. It was a nation which rose up — men, women and children — with one heart and one arm, to defend its liberties against oppression, and its soil against invasion. Such a nation, occupying such an extent of territory, cannot be co<

The New Orleans Washington Artillery, Col. J. B. Walton, were to have had a magnificent drill yesterday evening near Howard's Grove. preparatory to the departure of the battalion for the seat of war. Col. Walton's command embraces about 350 men, 12 cannon--first rate articles — and 150 horses. They are in a state of efficiency bordering on the perfect. When they start they will, no doubt, go up the Central Railroad to aid Gen. Beauregard. It was understood yesterday evening that President Davis was to have witnessed the evolutions of the corps. Military men say that the Washington Artillery are all that can be desired.
