Such are the Illinois Ape and his equally apish supporters. "Others of a more Democratic caste," he concluded, "will oppose it with equal determination, and a civil war may be produced by the conflict." Such was the prophetic language of Gerry, and such is the war now existing.--But, I must back to the present. An ignorant and misled man, by the name of Charles Ballentine, came to me yesterday morning and begged intercession for him. He had been stricken from the roll of the Home Guard in Gosport, for voting against ratification of the Ordinance of Secession. He seemed much grieved — said he could not read, and had voted a ticket handed him by one in whom he placed confidence. "Do you think," said he, "I would fight against our people — no sir, never. "I have been deceived." Perhaps there are other cases among the 75 of this character. Capt. Frost, of Company K--the Light Guard, of the First Regiment Louisiana Volunteers--met with a serious accident yesterday, at the camp at

From Fortsmouth.[special correspondence of the Dispatch.] Portsmouth, Va., May 25, 1861. How many so-called informed men have read the debates in the Federal Convention of 1787? How many in the enlightened, progressive, intellectual and Free-Soil North have formed their opinions of the Government of the United States upon such reasoning? In relation to the question of coercion and force, which the vulgar and coarse-grained Ape of Illinois is attempting to make a practical one, "Mr. Madison [in that Federal Convention] observed that the more he reflected on the use of force, the more he doubted the practicability, the justice and the efficiency of it, when applied to people collectively, and not individually. A union of the States containing such an ingredient seemed to provide for its own destruction. The use of force against a State would look more like a declaration of war than an infliction of punishment, and would probably be considered by the party attacked as a diss

"Do you think," said he, "I would fight against our people — no sir, never. "I have been deceived." Perhaps there are other cases among the 75 of this character. Capt. Frost, of Company K--the Light Guard, of the First Regiment Louisiana Volunteers--met with a serious accident yesterday, at the camp at Manlove's. He was drilling his company. The men were in position to resist a charge — the front rank kneeling and the rear standing. He approached to give instruction to one of his men in the front rank, as to the proper position in which he should hold his musket. In doing so, the bayonet of the man in the rear pierced his eye. At first the Captain felt no inconvenience, regarding it as a slight pricking, and even continued the drill, but, after retiring to his tent, so intense became the pain,<

fill the public expectations which his reputation as a soldier justly warrants. Col. Jas. Gregory Hodges, formerly in command of the 3d Regiment Virginia Volunteers, left here to-day to report in Richmond. He is a young man, animated by a noble emulation, and bears with him the good wishes of the whole community. He is a native of this city, and no doubt feels that its honor and reputation are now allied with his own. He will bear himself well wherever his lot may be cast. Lieut. Col. Vincent, with the Montgomery Guards and Davis Guards, are now encamped at St. Julien, the farm of Samuel M. Wilson, Esq., President of the Seaboard Road. These companies marched from the Depot to the camp ground in 43 minutes, a distance of 4½ miles. Private Hunt, of the Gulf City Guards, the sentry who shot Lieut. Storrs, has been remanded for trial before the Circuit Supreme Court. It is said Lieut. Otey, V. M. I., fired the first shot at the Monticello, and Capt. Lamb, of the Wo

Lamb, of the Woodies Reifies, fired the second. The day is bright and warm, and the city and locality comparatively quiet. I have ascertained, since writing the foregoing, that the injury sustained by Capt. Frost is not of so serious a nature as at first apprehended.--He is at present not likely to lose his eye, and will probably be out in a few days. Old Dominion.
