river train, the car provided was one of the handsomest, perhaps, ever run in the country. The decorations are blue, with silver stars, and the rich sofas, carpeting and luxurious chairs give to the car the appearance of an elegantly furnished saloon. The sides are draped with red, white and blue silk, and national flags are suspended at each end. A locomotive went ahead as pilot, and the train was drawn by a locomotive splendidly decorated with flags. The train ran finely on time to Hudson. At Greenbush, Stuyvesant and Castleton, large crowds assembled, and cannon were fired as the train passed along. The President elect, and suite, reached here by special train at 10.56 A. M. An enthusiastic congregation of about 5,000 people greeted him at the depot, and thirty-four guns were fired from Promenade Hill. A platform car was provided, upon which Mayor Bachman, and Recorder Miller were, prepared to receive the President, but he declined to leave the car. He addressed the c

he was going to his plantation, and should fight for the flag he found flying over it, and for his native State. His remarks caused some angry feelings, but he was not molested. Application was made to District Attorney Woodbury for a warrant for the arrest of Brown, but after hearing the statements of witnesses, he said he had no authority to issue a warrant under the proclamation of the President, as rebels by that proclamation were allowed thirty days to lay down their arms. He advised Mr. W. L. Burt, who was acting in the case, to apply to Gov. Andrew, who at once commanded his arrest. In the meantime the crowd visited the Worcester depot, where a portion of Lt. Brown's baggage was, and broke it open; but finding no materials of war, disturbed it no further Lt. B. was subsequently accompanied by the Mayor to the Charleston Navy-Yard, and reported himself to Capt. Hudson, thus escaping ill-treatment from the Boston mob — It was thought the charge of treason would be dropped."

, organized yesterday, now awaits equipments and arms. They desire active service. A Home Guard is being organized. Troops have been drilling day and night for many days, to secure the greatest efficiency in time for the call of the Governor. Messrs. Price, Caperton, et als., addressed the citizens of the county, assembled enmasse at the Court-House on yesterday. They strongly urged sustaining Virginia in her late action. At the conclusion of the addresses the vote was taken on the question, "Shall Greenbrier vote for the Ordinance of Secession?" There was but one voice manifested in the tremendous response of assent. The Superior Court, Judge Hudson presiding, is in session. One or two important criminal cases came up for trial. The prospect for wheat is remarkably fine. The fruit has suffered very little from frost. The great White Sulphur Springs will open on the 15th inst. This is earlier than usual. The Dispatch comes as regularly as the mall.

We regret to learn of the failure of Messrs N. H. Wolfe & Co., in the Western produce commission business. They are said to have abundant means, but their payments were large, and they were not able to negotiate their exchange to meet them, or even to collect their cash bills.

Horrible murder in San Francisco. --A horrible murder was committed in San Francisco on Oct. 31st. It was long premeditated and deliberately executed. Michael Harrigan, or "Irish Mike," is pretty well known among the New York "shoulder-strikers." Since his residence in San Francisco, has been several times under arrest for stabbing people, and he is the person who stabbed Captain Hudson, of the steamer Oregon, recently. On the night of Oct. 31st he went to a coffee saloon, in the lower part of the city, and walked up to a table where his wife was sitting. "Now, I know you are guilty," said he, and, putting his arm around her head, and drawing it back, with his pocket-knife he cut her throat from ear to ear. The woman fell back and expired almost immediately. Harrigan then walked to the police station and delivered himself up, avowing that he had killed his wife. From his own statement it appears that he married her — his second wife — in New York, about six months ago, and fi

ns of the last few days led the storm of applause, in which the Yankees heartily joined.) The Baron then thanked the Americans for having admitted a great number of German emigrants to the full enjoyment of political liberty — a boon which his countrymen had not been able to secure in South America, and especially Brazil. He hoped that Germany would soon be formed into a union of States, upon the transatlantic pattern, and concluded by proposing "The health of the American Minister." Mr. Hudson, the private secretary of Mr. Wright, offered a toast to the Union as based upon the Constitution. The maintenance of that Constitution, he said, was guaranteed by the devotion and patriotism of good men; but, should they fail in the attainment of their end through the ordinary and legitimate means, they would be entitled to appeal to the last resource of citizenship, which was the first inalienable prerogative of all Americans, namely — the right of revolution.

Attempts to Seize a Railroad Train and burn a Railroad Bridge Foiled. St. Joseph, July 10. --The express train on the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad, bound east to day, was stopped at Monroe by four hundred Confederates, and an attempt made to take possession, but it escaped unharmed; and was backed to Hudson. It is reported that there are 8,000 Confederates at Hannewalt Station, who will attempt to burn the Salt river bridge, east of Palmyra, to-night. The station-house at Monroe has been burned, and the telegraph wires cut. The blockade will not affect travel to the East, as the locality of the trouble is east of Hudson, the junction of the North Missouri Railroad. A vigorous attempt will be made to disperse the Confederates. Later--July 11.--Five hundred Federal troops le

Orders have been issued prohibiting steamers from passing Jefferson City unless they have the American flag flying. St. Louis, July 17.--Mr. Hayward, Superintendent of the Hannibal and St. Joseph railroad, just from Hannibal, received the following dispatch previous to leaving that place: Hudson, Mo., July 16. --800 Federal troops came up ahead of the passenger train as far as Melville, thirty miles above St. Charles, on the North Missouri Railroad, where the track was torn up and the troops fired into. An engagement ensued, resulting in the loss of seven rebels killed and several prisoners. One man caught with a gun in his hands was immediately hung. Another, attempting to escape, was riddled with balls. The fighting still continued when the passenger train passed up. Feder

bated here. On last Saturday, after an excellent barbecue, spirited addresses were made by Mr. Charles Bruce, Rev. Mr. Crenshaw, and others, another volunteer company was organized, and the following officers elected, viz:--Charles Bruce, Captain; A B. Paris, First Lieutenant; Wood Bouldin, Jr., 2d do.; Alfred Mann, 3d do.; T. M. Tucker, First Sergeant; W. K. Priddy, 2d do.; Dr. Cardon, 3d do.; R. L. B. Williams, 4th do.; Sampson Well, First Corporal; W. O. Hamlett, 2d do.;--Spead, 3d do.;--Hudson, 4th do. Mr. Bruce, with his usual liberality, offers to equip the company and provide everything necessary at his own expense. With such a leader and such a cause, there can be no failure in getting a few more volunteers. This makes the 8th company from old Charlotte. Great uneasiness is felt here about the Keysville Guards, who were in the Twenty-third Regiment, stationed at Laurel Hill, as nothing has been heard from them since the fight out there. We still hope they made a s
