berfand with his command, and penetrated considerable distance into the interior, driving, Lincoln's hirelings, like chaff, before his invincible little army. Should Gen., Z. overtake these dastardly, would be invaders, which we think doubtful, lively times may be expected in that quarter. The late engagement in the Sound. An officer on the Confederate gun-boat Oregon communicates to the New Orleans Delta, of the 6th inst., the following in relation to the late, naval engagement on the Mississippi Sound: December 4th at 7 A. M., got under way at Grants Pass in company with the Confederate States steamer Florida, and stood for Horn Island Pass. At 8 o'clock saw a large Federal steamer standing in for Horn Island Pass Run for her. At 8.30 the Florida opened fire upon her with one gun, upon which the put back and run out the Pass, both the Oregon and the Florida in pursuit. After getting well out, the Federal steamer hasted up and commenced firing, which opened a g

er. Knowing your sympathy for my native State in her unfortunate affection, I place the prayer of her oppressed at your disposal. A. Marylander. From Lincoln and Hicks From Dodge and from Dix, The people, kind heaven, dissever, With cuff, and with kicks, And with back-handed licks, they would rule and formant us forevee none is deserved to be given; From the negro-war band, Who would blood stain the land, We pray thee to screen us, good Heaven. From the gloomy Bastille, And Lincoln's big heel, All iron clad, ready to rend us; From Seward's soft speech, And Cameron's leech. We pray thee, good Lord, to defend us. Pray let the war cease-- Gend us; From Seward's soft speech, And Cameron's leech. We pray thee, good Lord, to defend us. Pray let the war cease-- Give us quiet and peace, With Maryland's rights vindicated. Let the battle's wild roar Be echoed no more Where Lincoln's poor dupes are chock mated. Put under the doors in Baltimore September 26th, 1861.

ine of policy, would be the necessity of recruiting our supply of cotton. But, in our opinion, such an hypothesis is not admissible; for as long as the Northern Government shall continue the blockade, there can be no exportation of cotton, whether the Southern Confederacy be recognized or not. It would, in the meantime, be entirely inopportune to recognize those who cannot be considered as having proved themselves capable of maintaining their independence. "'We believe, then, that Messrs. Lincoln and Seward are taking measures of precaution against a danger which has no existence in fact, and in doing this, they incurred useless expenditure of men, money, and materials, which they ought rather to concentrate upon their real enemies — those whom they have before them. The Washington Government gives gratuitously to the South the advantage of the preparations which it is making against an imaginary enemy. The Confederates desire to be recognized by Europe, with the sole view to

A Clerical Wolf. --The Bowling Green Courier states that the Rev. R. J. Breckinridge, the preacher who, a short time since, urged a warfare on women and children in order to reduce the Southern people to the dominion of the abolition administration at Washington, has written a pamphlet to prove that there cannot be peace until the subjugation of the South is accomplished — to prove that there can be no peace until the last man in the slaveholding States, in hose veins flows one drop of patriotic blood is exterminated, and twelve sovereign States are laid waste with fire and sword; for until the soil of the South has drunk the heart's blood of the last of their sons, and the wives and children of a race of heroes have shared the fate of their natural protectors, the usurpation of Abraham Lincoln will not be acknowledged by the Confederate States, nor will resistance to his tyranny cease while there is a single arm to strike for the God-given rights of free men.
