Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.the true sentiment of Baltimore. Baltimore, May 17, 1861. Although hemmed in by the vandals of the North, our sympathy with the South, instead of diminishing, is steadily augmenting. The arrest of our worthy townsman, Ross Winans, Esq., which the Yankees had been spurred to do by the New York Tribune, has served to exasperate the people so greatly that, had he not been released yesterday, we would have had a more bloody day than the 19th of April, 1861. The so-called Union meeting, which no doubt the American represented as being most enthusiastic, was but an outburst of anger from the Yankee settlers of Maryland, who wish to place the sentiment of native Mary landers on the side of the North (Union).

Editors, my position as a man and a Christian, but when I think of the great wrongs that have been perpetrated against us, both as a Government and as private Christians, I find myself unable to restrain myself; but I have still, and ever have had, abiding faith in our cause, our people, and God's justice.

Charleston, May 17, 1861. I have it on better authority than you generally get, that old "Tureen" (Scott,) and Lincoln will, on Tuesday or Wednesday next, make an attempt on Harper's Ferry, Alexandria, Fredericksburg, Urbana, and Tappahannock on the Rappahannock, and at Norfolk, and on the York river, merely to divert voters from the polls. I hope, however, that every voter in the State may determine to go to the polls and vote, if he never gets back home alive.

Virginians, next Thursday is to you the most momentous day that has ever dawned upon you. It is a day for weal or woe to you and your posterity.

The New York papers of Saturday furnish the following intelligence: important rumors Respecting English and French action on American affairs. Washington, May 17, 1861.--It is useless to disguise the fact that the leading members of the Diplomatic Corps in Washington are engaged in constant and anxious discussion on the course it may be necessary for them at any day to adopt. They have recently received urgent instructions from their respective Governments to inform them with the utmost precision of the chances of the two sections in their present deadly quarrel. It is leaking out that the Governments in question declare that their commercial interest
