elt homesick," he says, "because he could not hear from home." At length he had two letters from home. He has passed through Lynchburg, and in due time reaches Harper's Ferry. Here is his account of his first Sabbath at the Ferry. "Sunday, May 19--What a cold day for the 19th of May; everybody is acting as if it were Monday; all firing guns; cooking, playing cards, &c.; had a dress parade, Colonel Jackson inspecting us; he is a large, fat old fellow, looks very much like an old Virginia f19th of May; everybody is acting as if it were Monday; all firing guns; cooking, playing cards, &c.; had a dress parade, Colonel Jackson inspecting us; he is a large, fat old fellow, looks very much like an old Virginia farmer; returned to camp, prepared and ate a scanty dinner; had Episcopal service, and then a good old-fashioned sermon from our pastor, Chadwick; oh, how I loved to listen to him; wrote a letter hom; had another dress parade in the evening; rained all night" This is not a bad fellow. All through his diary we find evidences of goodness. On another occasion we find that he has "finished the last chapter of the Acts," and that he has done little else than "read the Testament."

cede is rebellion, and not the exercise of any constitutional right. And in the States which have claimed the right to withdraw there are now open no courts of the United States, and the laws of the United States cannot now be executed in those States by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings. Is this not civil war? and has it not been so regarded by the executive department of the Government. This is clear from the proclamations of the President of the 15th of April. of the 19th of April, of the 27th of April, of the 2d of May, and of the 10th of May--all recognizing the fact that the power of the Government is no longer capable of enforcing the laws, and calling to its aid the power intended to be provided by the acts of 1795 and 1867, and, also, using the power of blockade, a war power belonging only to belligerents either in a civil or foreign war. And the legislative department has also recognized this contest as a war. For, during the lost session of Congress, it no

Patriotic Marylanders. --A letter to the Newbern Progress, dated Goldsboro', N. C., Feb. 15th, says: A company of Marylanders arrived here this morning, which will be assigned to some post in this State by Gen. Gatlin. The action of this company presents a strong appeal to our own twelve months men to re-enlist. The company left Baltimore on the 19th of May last, since which time it has been in service at various points in Virginia, and was at the battle of Manassas. When Roanoke was taken their time of enlistment had just expired, and they had commenced on the sixty days furlough offered by the Government before going into the service again; but, actuated by a noble patriotism, they threw up their furlough and at once volunteered to come to our assistance. Patriotic Marylanders! Oppressed Maryland! when will the day of thy deliverance dawn! This company may possibly reach your place to-night.
Capture of a portion of the Monitor's crew.eight of the enemy killed. Petersburg, May 19. --Eighteen of the Monitor's crew came ashore at 3 o'clock this afternoon at City Point, and were surprised, upon landing, by the Confederate pickets and ordered to surrender. Nine of them, including four officers, laid down their pistols and outlanded. The others rushed to the small boat, and pulled for the Monitor. Eight of them were killed; the remaining one lost an arm. The Monitor opened fire with a heavy gun, and prevented the capture of the boat and the survivor. Nine of the prisoners reached here at half-past 6 o'clock, and marched through Sycamore street to Gen. Huger's headquarters, surrounded by a great crowd. One of the officers is the Paymaster; the other are midshipmen. None of the Confederates were hurt.

One of Morgan's men arrived last night, and reports that Morgan lost twenty killed and wounded, and forty prisoners, in the fight at Lebanon. Morgan's force killed sixty Federals and captured 140, but was compelled to retire, a heavy Federal force being near, coming to attack. Morgan's missing men are coming in.
