ve treated it when it first sprang into being full armed; as though the agony through which the Republic is now passing were a crime even more than a calamity; and as though the seeds of that calamity had not been implanted in the Union by that imperial Government which denied liberty to its founders, and bequeathed them slavery." The Virginia State debt in England. [From the London Times (city article) July 5.] The dividend on the Virginia State debt, due here in sterling on the 1st instant, has not been paid, the answer being, "No funds," This result is only such as might have been apprehended, since the State is overrun, and its capital besieged by the Federal forces. It is to be hoped, however, that when these forces shall have occupied Richmond, and assumed control of the property of the State, the authorities at Washington will recognise that in seizing the property they must also assume its liabilities, and that their first duty is to see to the payment of those forei

The Trium of the Arkansas. A correspondent of the Mobile News, writing from Vicksburg on the 16th, describes the arrival of the Arkansas there. She was in command of Lt. Isaac N. Brown, a veteran of the rate United States Navy. The letter says: As she neared this goodly city, in the vicinity of the Yankee fleet above, sight of our batteries, the became most and the and shot from the infuriated enemy fell in about the plucky little craft as she was boldly steaming her way down within a few yards of their guns. But on she sped, undisturbed and undismayed, shaking off the monaster shells as a dog snakes off the water from his back.--in a very short time the gallant Arkansas passed by our upper batteries, and in a few minutes more she was safely moored at the war; before the city. Upon examination it was discovered that the casualties to ten killed, and a small number slightly wounded; and the boat sustained no injury whatever, with the exception of having her sm
on. It is said that the obstructions at Fort Darling have been so contrived as to let her drop through, as did the Teazer the other day. Contrabands going from Washington. The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, writing on the 17th, says: Quite a scene was presented this morning in the removal of the "contrabands," who have been quartered in Duft Green's Row, thence to Camp McClellan, on North Twelfth street, near O street, where they will occupy the barracks. Some thl any punishment or proceedings under the said act be so construed us to work a forfeiture of the real estate of the offender beyond his natural life. Financial. The telegraphic report of the New York money market, dated the night of the 17th, quotes gold at 118. The New York Journal of Commerce, of that afternoon says: There is no improvement over yesterday in activity or tone of feeling, but the announcement that the President had the Confiscation bill would give new life at
We have received a copy of the Baltimore Sun, of the 18th inst. It states that Ellis V. McCleese was arrested there the day before by Gen. Wool and sent to Fort McHenry, upon the charge of having been in Richmond for some time past. We take the following items of news from the paper From Gen. M'Clellanis army — position of the Main body unchanged. We take the following from a letter dated Army of the Potomac, July 15th, published in the New York Times. The position of the main body of the army near Harrison's Landing remains unchanged. Yesterday a squadron of the Sixth United States cavalry went out a picket line for the purpose of prevent to a party on duty at a point in the year. The enemy's videttes were half a mile in advance. For upward or three hours the two parties sat quietly on their horses watching the movements of each other, until at length enemy became exceedingly restless and signs of The Sixth allowed him to advance a few yards, and then g

My Negro Boy, Alexander, ran off at Ashland about the middle of April. He is a bright mulatto, about 5 feet 4 inches high, decayed teeth, about 30 years old. I do not remember any marks, except on his back. I will give $25 for his delivery at the 11th Mississippi registrant, or at R. L. Lumpkin's jail. E. G. Jones, Co. A. 11th Miss. Vols. jy 23--1m*
How the Dogs howl ! The mingled emotions of terror and wrath which agitate the mind of Yankee Doodle, are infinitely amusing. It is quite evident that McClellan's "change of base" does not impose upon them.--They see, clearly enough, that he has been tremendously flogged, and that his "strategic movement" was nothing less than an old-fashioned fight. In May, he boosted that his army "had not met with a cheek," and that he meant to "push Johnston to the wall." In July, he writes that he is in an impregnable position, and that the army is safe. A prodigious change of position, certainly, from an advance, sweeping his adversary before him, and pressing him to his last retreat, to a stand still on the defensive. The Yankees can see this as plainly as we can, and they are horribly alarmed. They have been flogged like cure and they howl accordingly. The change of tone in the Yankee newspapers is wonderful. Secretary Cameron boosted last December that he had raised an army o
