From Portsmouth.[special correspondence of the Dispatch.] Portsmouth, Va., May 23, 1861.
As I commence my brief note, the company of Capt. James Cann Choate is marching away from the Court-House, having just voted for the glorious cause in which they have engaged, and for which they have shouldered the musket.
This company is composed of sterling country men, and they have called themselves the Deep Creek Rangers.--Their gallant and brave commander is a native of this city, a descendant of the family Cann, a name which leads our denizens back to old and better times.
In contrast with the patriotic course of the Rangers, I am told that fifteen of the Newtown or Marion Riflemen have voted for what is called the Union ticket, thus verifying the Black Republican proclivities for which they have heretofore been suspected.
Their Captain is now under arrest at the Hospital Station, under command of Col. Pryor, for disobedience of orders, of the nature of which I am not apprised.
