A female sailor. -- A Romantic Story.--A young person in sailor's attire was brought before Justices Osborne, at the Tombs, last Friday, on a charge of being a female in male attire. The prisoner at once confessed that the suspicions against her were well founded, and stated that her name was Bridget Delancey, that she was about sixteen years of age, and that her parents resided in the county of Clare, Ireland. About three years since, she said she had formed an attachment for a young sailor who had been visiting her father's house in Ireland, and had promised to marry him, but her parents would not consent. She then purchased a sailor's garb and shipped on board a vessel bound for this country, in the hope of discovering her affianced lover; but she was not successful. Having acquired a taste for a seafaring life, however, she continued to retain her male attire, and made three more voyages to this city — no one suspecting that the stout, hardy looking sailor was a female.

oln, it gave indications of a disposition to go with the South, or at least of a determination to oppose the Administration in its war on the Constitution and the rights of the people; but it only showed its teeth to teach the corrupt court to properly appreciate its temper and to put a suitable estimate on its value. It succeeded. The "miserably unfit man" elected by "the enemies of the country" (its own language,) to the Presidency, had a contract for the purchase of horses given to Messrs. Osborne and Henderson, two of its proprietors, and Mr. Prentice was supplied with Colt's Navy Revolvers for distribution to "good Union men"--an arrangement which left him a round profit on each one, and thereupon the Journal, stopping at nothing, gave a cordial and earnest support to every act and the whole policy of the Administration. It is well known that Mr. Prentice, while calling down vengeance on the heads of all "smugglers" and traders with the South, was conniving at the sale of pist

air play. To prevent any attempt on the part of the Tuscarora to evade the demands made by the Government, the Dauntless, which lies off Netley Abbey, about three miles lower down the river, has been fully manned and equipped. She has orders to keep steam up, and is brought to by a spring cable, ready to prevent any act of aggression on the part of the Federal vessel. It is also arranged that, should necessity require it, the Dauntless can signal the Warrior, which vessel is lying off Osborne with her fires banked up. A gunboat has also been ordered here from Portsmouth. It is said that the Tuscarora is very badly built, that her guns are too large and heavy for a vessel of her size and class, there not being room enough to work them properly. She is very leaky, and the men are obliged to be kept at the pumps; and it is the opinion of those who have visited her, competent to form an opinion, that she will not be able to stand the shock from such heavy metal as she carries.
