Save your powder. --We endorse the prudent suggestion of various of our contemporaries in this respect. The Savannah Republican says: "This is a valuable suggestion at the present emergency, and should be heeded. We hear of one hundred guns being fired in some places over Sumter, Virginia, &c., &c. Far better save your powder for the enemy, and give one hundred cheers. So far as Savannah is concerned, we are setting a good example.--We have saluted nobody and nothing, where powder was required, since South Carolina went out of the Union. We made an emphatic demonstration then, and intended it to last for the whole war. Even the secession of our own State was not made an exception. We kept back the big guns, or rather had them in battery, and brought out a swivel, which has been used as our saluting ordnance ever since, and you can fire it from a powder horn to your heart's content.

Colquitt received a dispatch last night from Gov. Brown, requesting to know If the Light Guards could start to-night for Norfolk, Virginia. We are informed that the dispatch ws answered in the affirmative, and that the company will leave for that destination by the train this afternoon, at 3 o'clock, they having been ready for orders some time past. The Charleston Mercury of the 20th has the following: South Carolina will aid Virginia with two regiments of her victorious troops to maintain the bold position which she has assumed against Federal usurpation. We understand that the regiment of Col. Maxcy Gregg, and the regiment of Col. Pettigrew, have been
Troops from the South. --It is stated on what is deemed reliable authority, that 400 South Carolina troops will be here to-day, and that 3,000 of those brave defenders of the South will soon be concentrated in Richmond.
