Arrest. --Joseph H. Neff, a ship chandler has been arrested and committed for trial in Wilmington, N. C., on the charge of using language expressive of hostility to the Government as well as to the cause of the Southern States, and of approval of the course of Lincoln. The Wilmington Journal remarks, in reference to the matter: We fear that this case is not an isolated one There are men who have made all their money here, who have deserted the community, and who are preparing to desert it, and who, in the prospect of their early escape to Abolitiondom, are rather incautious in their expressions. They will bear watching. No man ought to be allowed to go backwards and forwards, to and from North, or to communicate with that section. It is neither more nor less than carrying on a correspondence with the enemy.

ts of the case, and will not be justified by future historians of the country. The most flimsy apologies are offered for creating an army of 225,000 men and other direct violations of the Constitution, yet, notwithstanding all this, it will be indorsed by the whole North, and this unholy war prosecuted with the utmost vigor. I had some hope that a party favoring compromise and peace would have been created at the North; in fact, a nucleus had been formed, but the universal approval of Lincoln's policy by the masses here banishes all prospect of checking hostilities, and now the South has nothing to look to but the patriotism and bravery of her sons. I am now satisfied that the North is determined to prosecute this war until every State of the Southern Confederacy is conquered, or until they are themselves defeated. I have no idea that the South can ever be conquered, and therefore unless they can repel the Northern invaders, it stands to reason this war will last a long time.
The Newbern (N. C.) Progress, of the 17th, gives a rumor that Lincoln's troops had landed in Roanoke Island, in Currituck, N. C.
red off Cedar Keys, Florida, by a detachment of members of the Columbia Rifies, under the command of Captain Moors, who went out in the small steamer Madison, and recaptured some four vessels which had been made prizes of by the Lincolnite pirates off the Balire, at the mouth of the Mississippi. Selden was the commander of the prize crews, and made the schooner Fanny his flagship. The prisoners are in charge of a detachment of the Columbia Rifies, under the command of Lieutenant A. T. Banks, formerly of Fayetteville, N. C. On the arrival of the regiment, the prisoners, who were hand cuffed, were marched down Main street to the prison depot and deposited therein. We could not distinguish the person of Mr. Selden, Lincoln's and the leader of the burly ruffians who were carried to the lock-up, but take it for granted that he was safely secured somewhere, ready for similar punishment to that which may be meted out to our brave lads captured in the Savannah, now in New York.
h) is a brother of Lieutenant David H. Todd, an officer in the service of the Confederate States--a gallant and meritorious gentleman. He is also a brother of Mrs. Lincoln, wife of Abraham Lincoln, President of the Northern States. He had on his person one or more letters franked to him at Lexington, Kentucky, by "A. Lincoln, M.Abraham Lincoln, President of the Northern States. He had on his person one or more letters franked to him at Lexington, Kentucky, by "A. Lincoln, M. C.," written no doubt when that notorious personage was a member of the lower House of Congress; also, a letter to "Gov. John Letcher" introducing "Dr. Todd;" also, a letter introducing the bearer to Maj. Thos. Hardeman, 2d Battalion Georgia Volunteers, near Norfolk. He gave the officer a list of names of persons to summon to proA. Lincoln, M. C.," written no doubt when that notorious personage was a member of the lower House of Congress; also, a letter to "Gov. John Letcher" introducing "Dr. Todd;" also, a letter introducing the bearer to Maj. Thos. Hardeman, 2d Battalion Georgia Volunteers, near Norfolk. He gave the officer a list of names of persons to summon to prove his character and standing, among whom were Dr. R. A. Lewis, of this city; Judge Cooper, of the Treasury Department; Colonel Bledsoe and Mr. Jones, of the War Department, and Mr. M. S. Brooks, at the St. Charles Hotel. Todd will be before the Mayor this morning. After his arrest, we heard a gentleman declare that Todd had oft
f popular indignation, both at home and abroad.--Meanwhile, let us abide the blessed hour. The same writer says that the estimated expenses of the war to the Lincoln Administration will be about three hundred millions of dollars. With the contemplated increase of the Northern Army, it will be nearer five hundred millions of , and they will have to pay the lively little sum of four hundred and twenty-eight odd dollars per coput. It is easy to say that this financial saddle, over which Lincoln is about bestriding the people, is one which will soon wear so the hone, and that if he should persist in his attempt at equestrianism, the time may not be far dither three or four hundred millions with find in the now suspicious matters of the world the same welcome as heretofore. The United States Congress may admire Mr. Lincoln's calls for money, but their endorsement will not raise the wind either at home or among the lynx-eyed capitalists of Europe, who know that cotton is the only s
peace establishment as he speaks of, he is unfit to enlighten a bar-room auditory, and if he does know better, he is willfully deluding the Northern people to a state of things which will require a permanent standing army larger than that which Lincoln has already in the field. There is another view of the case which the North may contemplate at its leisure, when returning reason gives it an opportunity to calculate the consequences of its present crusade against the South. It has established the maxim, by the popular sanction as well as by the vote of Congress, that "the end justifies the means;" that the President of the United States may violate the Constitution, and perjure his soul, as it is conceded Lincoln has done in six separate and distinct particulars, he himself being the judge of whether the public interests demand a violation of the Constitution or not. It has called into existence a gigantic standing army, composed of foreign mercenaries, with the avowed purpose
