Paul journeyed to Damascus. He has seized all the guns of Messrs. Merrill, Thomas & Co, and ordered them to make no more arms; also taken several large lots of powder, and has power to arrest all suspicious persons and examine all suspicious houses. Now, the true power of a U. S. Marshal is not much more than a sheriff, and you may know to what points that black-hearted scoundrel at Washington is going. A gentleman from Washington informs us that he saw two of the steamers that were from the fight at Aquia Creek, and he did not know ball could do such damage; they were completely torn up and riddled by balls. Tell the people of Virginia, and let it reach Hon. Jefferson Davis, that Maryland is South in every feeling and desire; that if Union men are in the ascendant, and Union men are elected, it is because they are supported by bayonets; they are elected by bayonets; and I sincerely hope they will be driven from among us at the point of the Southern bayonets.

Large quantities of provisions and provender are constantly arriving. However our men are all well fed and comfortable, as great care upon the part of those in authority manifested that it should be so. About 1800 troops arrived to-day.

d implore the Lord of Hosts to guide and direct our policy in the paths of right, duty, justice and mercy; to unite our hearts and our efforts for the defence of our dearest rights; to strengthen our weakness, crown our arms with success, and enable us to secure a speedy, just and honorable peace. To these ends, and in conformity with the request of Congress, I invite the people of the Confederate States to the observance of a day of fasting and prayer by such religious services as may be suitable for the occasion, and I recommend Thursday, the 13th day of June next, for that purpose, and that we may all on that day, with one accord join in humble and reverential approach to Him in whose hands we are, invoking Him to inspire us with a proper spirit and temper of heart and mind to bear our evils, to bless us with His favor and protection, and to bestow His gracious benediction upon our Government and country. Jefferson Davis. By the President: R. Toombs, Secretary of State.
