sels of any kind either in Hampton Roads or the bay this morning. There were at 5 o'clock this morning, on the wharf at Old point, about three or four hundred barrels of beef or pork. The steamer Chesapeake was at the wharf, but it could not be ascertained whether she was landing or taking on board the barrels. The Relief Fund for the benefit of families, whose heads have been, or may be, called into service, has met with the most generous subscriptions. James H. Behan, Esq., headed the list with $500--others have and will do the same. North Carolina notes of one, two, three, and four dollars are freely circulating in our city; also small notes issued by the city, which will afford a great relief to the community, in the way of making change, without being subjected to an enormous discount. Our stores open at the usual hour in the morning, to accommodate the people from the country, and close at 5 P. M., to afford time to the employees to attend drill, &c. Powder.

schooner G. M. Smith, reported yesterday as having been seized Wednesday, by order of Flag-officer Pendergrast, had left N. York for Wilmington, N. C., on the 2d April with an assorted cargo, including a lot of gun carriages, for citizens of North Carolina, and put into the Elizabeth River on the 24th, short of provisions, &c. She hoisted a signal of distress and the steam-tug Young America, belonging to Messrs. Baker, started to her relief from Norfolk. A large launch carrying a swivel, ion,) is that the G. M. Smith had on board some munitions of war, (viz: the gun carriages,) and that the Young America was going to her relief. This flagrant act constitutes a three-fold outrage. First. It is an act of war against both North Carolina and Virginia. Secondly. It is not justified by any knowledge on the part of the Captain of the Young American, of what constituted the cargo of a strange vessel in distress. Thirdly. The property of citizens of a State still at peace with t

nt of the journey, the truth of which is confirmed by the fact that Lowe had with him Cincinnati papers of the previous day, is given by the Columbia South Carolinian: He left Cincinnati on Saturday morning, at 4 o'clock, passed up the valley of the Ohio river to Virginia, with the intention of landing near Petersburg; but, after crossing the Alleghanies, a current bore him South, between this range and the Blue Ridge. A little before 1 o'clock, he came down near the line between North and South Carolina; but finding himself at too great a distance from any railroad, he ascended again, and next came down at Pea Ridge, in Union District, at 9 o'clock P. M., having thus traveled, by the course he pursued, about 1200 miles, in nine hours. This, we think, is the fastest time yet made. From Pea Ridge, Professor Lowe was conveyed to Unionville, where he remained until yesterday morning, when he came down to this city, with the intention of going on immediately to Washington

n patriotic duty, have come forward and offered their services. And this is not all. Those who are able to do so, contribute money; one man, I hear, has given as much as $200 to aid in defraying their expenses. An agent has been sent to North Carolina to contract with Gov. Ellis for the purchase of arms for the use of the new companies now forming in our city. North Carolina having recently seized a large quantity of firearms she will, of course, spare us a portion of them. Capt. H. North Carolina having recently seized a large quantity of firearms she will, of course, spare us a portion of them. Capt. H. H. Cocke, of Prince George county, has resigned his position in the U. S. Navy, and accepted a place in the Navy of Virginia. He is stationed for the present on James River. The Home Guard, Capt. D. G. Potts, now number nearly 200 strong, able-bodied men. Each day they parade, they appear with fuller ranks than before. It is really a fine-looking company, and with but one drawback — the members are allowed to arm themselves as they please, and the dissimilarity in their weapons, is striki

North Carolina. This noble State is about to send seventy thousand volunteers to the field. They are not the "cankers of a long peace and a calm world," like those raised in New York, but the bone and sinew of the county men, hardy and gallant men, accustomed from infancy to the use of the rifle. Under skillful and efficient leaders, the South will be invincible against any force that the North can send.

of on any terms. Baltimore notes, to-day, are quoted at 50 per cent. discount; those of the seceded States ditto ditto. "Stocks at the first Board opened dull, but closed firm. Government and Border State bonds could be had at cheaper prices. The Railroad shares were inactive. At the second Board there was a better feeling all round.--$16,000 U. S. 5's of 1874, coupons, sold at 76; $12,000 Virginia 6's at 42; $54,000 Missouri 6's at 40½a40. Compared with the closing prices of the forenoon, Virginia 6's advanced 1½ per cent. The Baltimore Sun, of Saturday, says: The money market is quiet, there not being sufficient business doing to create a demand, and no disposition among capitalists to buy paper when offered. The discount on Virginia money yesterday was 13 to 15 per cent., a decline of 3a5 per cent., and on North Carolina 15 per cent., a decline of 10 per cent.--There is very little demand for gold coin; the brokers offer it freely at 6 to 8 per cent. premium.
