here yesterday from Kentucky, some important information in regard to that State, which, if true, will show how completely some of her citizens are given over to Lincoln. Our informant states that the Legislature had passed an act in regard to native Kentuckians found in arms against the Government, whether in the Confederate But perhaps the real strife will occur in regard to another act passed by the Legislature, to the effect that Kentucky will pay her portion of the tax levied by Lincoln to carry on the war of subjugation. People may submit to being shot themselves, but when called upon to perform that office for their brothers, friends, and neigky a party to a war which they abhor. It is a new kind of "neutrality," and will be appreciated by those who clung to that idea. It is, however, but a sequel to Lincoln's message, and might reasonably have been expected before this. Another piece of intelligence brought us is the revival of the Louisville Courier as a Union
Havana correspondent of the N. O. Delta, writes to that paper the following letter: Havana, Sept. 18, 1861. Our communication is not quite as open and free as our hearts would desire; but such as it is through the mal-providence of Lincoln and his fraud dent blockade. I will endeavor to take full advantage. We have a midshipman of the Sumter here, who will get to his country and into active service again shortly.--Hicks, prize-master of the ship Jessie Maxwell, who was ordered "he order does not presume recognition of the nationality of the Confederate States, other than the purposes stated. The friends of the Confederate States, who are the hirelings and spies of the U. States Consulate for the vile usurpation of Lincoln, are well known to you, and should be remembered. They are as vindictive as the most rabid of Abolition snakes which have crept into the heart of the Democratic ranks of the North; they have no magnanimous rattle to apprise of their lurking upo
Algernon Sidney Sullivan. --The arrest of this young lawyer in New York, and his imprisonment in Lincoln's Bastille, Fort Lafayette, for the sole offence that he consented to act as counsel for some of the Southern prisoners' now confined in New York; have elicited from a friend of his in this city (says the New Orleans Picayune,) the following communication: We may be in error, but we are under the impression that this victim of the Black Republican dynasty at Washington is a brother of John L. Sullivan, Esq., a well-known, ripe and accomplished scholar, who was formerly editor of the Democratic Review, and has served the United States in more than one diplomatic capacity abroad. Eds. Picayune:--It may not be generally known here that Mrs. Sullivan is a son of "the Old Dominion;" he took up his residence in New York about four years since, and entered upon the practice of his profession. His genial disposition and kindliness of heart secured for him at once a goodly

ed; the order was given to 'form into line.' and the retreat was made slowly and in perfect order without the loss of a single man, and only, two horses killed." Information has been received in camp, since the engagement, from the enemy's quarters, in all respects verifying the above facts, with this additional fact, that there were five killed and one missing. The boys speak of the fight and of killing Yankees as they would of killing snakes, and say that the whistling of bullets near their heads only excited them to renewed action. Take it altogether, it was a day's sport that will be remembered to their sorrow by Lincoln's troops on Mayfield creek. The health of the troops is very good, and their spirits buoyant, I should judge, from the music and gayety in the camp from which I now write. I shall write as points of interest arise. We all look to the coming of the Appeal every day with pleasure. As it is now time for bed, I must bid you a very good night. W. L. G.
n that port.-- A correspondent says: There will be no more attacks upon the Confederate flag in these waters by the braves of the Niagara or the Consul General and his corps, which was a gratuitous assumption of police and administrative jurisdiction.-- Capt. Laurent hoisted the flag upon the Brig A. A. Chanman as a private signal the other day, is consequence of which Mr. Savage, the Spanish-American Vine Consul, sent the register of the vessel in Washington, making himself a regular Lincoln judge, jury and executioner — assuming the responsibility.--Ordering the captain before him, he says: "Sir. you will henceforth not ceins to this consulate for favor or protection. I have sent your register to Washington and put your vessel in the hands of the Spanish authorities." Response--"I ask no favors — I have had no protection. My vessel is, at any rate, I am happy to learn, in the charge of gentlemen, and men who are honest." "No impudence, sir; I speak to you officially."--"Tha

uth. Pyrrhus sent a challenge to Antigmas to come and fight him for the kingdom, and received the following reply: "Time is the weapon I use as much as the sword, and if Pyrrhus is weary of his life there are many ways to end it." So it is with Lincoln, and so he treats our challenges to fight. He sees that delay will strengthen him and weaken us, and he will not hazard defeat by hasty action. This is good policy for Lincoln, but bad for us. We have a powerful army, well equipped in all its Lincoln, but bad for us. We have a powerful army, well equipped in all its appointments and flushed with the prestige of recent victory. Our soldiery are nervous and impatient to put the enemy to a second and a greater rout, and we are sure that it must come to that sooner or later. We cannot keep a large army in action in Virginia while a powerful war fleet is laying our coast in ruins. We await with anxiety the development of the true policy chalked out for our army, and hope speedy action will give indications of the programme. More anon. Bannockburn.

gress necessarily puts an end to all the fiscal receipts which had been estimated in the budget. The very commerce which was to have been the fruitful source of taxation was sought to be annihilated, and the commodities raised for the express purpose of exports, by means of which corresponding imports would have been paid for, were condemned to remain in the war-houses of the South. Thus the authorities at Washington destroyed the very revenue on which they had calculated. Mr. President Lincoln has now taken a step even more decided, having issued a proclamation suspending "all commercial intercourse with the South," so that by land, as well as by sea, eleven States are completely severed from the remaining twenty-three; and to this sweeping enactment it is evident that the Federal tax collectors cannot form an exception. The mails of the South are stopped, and the smuggler alone remains to carry on any precarious communication. It is plain that the budget of the last session of
