The Mayor of Memphis. The mob reign of terror gotten up under this doctrine of Secession is so great that we find they are appealing to the one-man power. They are even willing to make the Mayor of the city a despot, and Isham G. Harris, a little petty governor of Tennessee, a king. He is to be made king over the State that contains the bones of the immortal, the illustrious Jackson. Isham GBaugh? The Mayor of Memphis.

orse over the fence, followed by Captain Ball, Lieutenants Wooldridge and Weisiger, of the Chesterfield troop; Baxter, of the Loudoun cavalry, and Messrs. Hendrick and Peters, civilians, who volunteered for the fight. Baxter is mentioned as deserving praise for the gallant manner in which he made a charge with ten men on two companies of the enemy's infantry. Lieutenant Charles Wildman, who will be heard from later on, is complimented, and Sergeant Strother, of the Madison cavalry; Sergeant-Major Baugh, of the Chesterfield troop, and Private Toler, of the Loudoun cavalry, rendered good service in carrying orders. And now, says Colonel White, was their best time to recross the river, for Hunton, with his Eighth Virginia (except Wampler's company, left at the Burnt Bridge to look out for McCall) was coming at a double quick, with 375 more people in bad temper. Then came the tug of the battle. Colonel Baker had now arrived with the rest of his brigade, making in all about 1,900

n the States of Virginia and Tennessee, was promptly forwarded, as directed, to the Governor of that State. No reply has been received, and nothing further has been done. The information collected by Colonel McDonald, on his recent visit to England, will perhaps throw light upon the subject, and enable us to do justice to both States, in any future attempts to ascertain the true line. The second resolution authorized me to appoint a Commissioner to state and settle the accounts of Messrs. Baugh and Black, for their services in running and marking the said line. I accordingly appointed Major Jacob Lynch, of Washington county, such Commissioner, and accompanied his commission with such instructions as I considered necessary, to insure a final settlement of the accounts. His report has been returned, and the balance ascertained by him to be due to each, has been paid. I am confirmed in the opinion expressed in my communication to you on the subject at the last session. This li

Fire. --The large Government building, within the Navy-Yard inclosure, occupied by the Memphis and Ohio Railroad Company as a Superintendent's office, telegraph office, and ticket office, was discovered to be on fire in the roof about 3 o'clock yesterday morning.--The alarm was given, and the firemen were on the ground with little delay, and finally arrested the flames after they reached the second story. The books and papers in the Superintendent's and the telegraph office were either consumed or seriously injured. The safes were saved unhurt. The damage to the building could proably be repaired for $1,000. The building was insured for $15,000 in three home offices by Mayor Baugh, just before his term of office expired. The general impression appears to be that the building was set on fire in the garret. The house was elegantly built, and must have cost $40,000.--Memphis Bulletin, 15th.

rrived to secure personal safety. The number of sick was rather large; there was no help for them; they must necessarily fall into the hands of the foe. The greater portion of them marched down the Tiptonville road; these fell into the hands of the invading troops, and were compelled to stack arms and surrender. The number of persons taken prisoners is estimated at two thousand. General Mackall and staff, except Major Davis and Lieut. Col. Henderson, 40th Confederate, were among them. Ex-Mayor Baugh was sick on Monday afternoon; he procured a mule and cart in the evening to take him away, since which time he was seen safe on this side the lake. Capt. Rucker and Col. T. J. Finnie got off safely. We learn that all the Southern Guards escaped, except Frank Harrison, who was left in the hospital; also Capt. Hoadley and ten of his men; Lieut. Torrey and thirty nine men; Lieut. Torrey and thirty nine men; Lieut. M. Tresevant, 40th regiment; Robert Pitman and Jno. Ginnis, of Baker's regi
