The Volunteer Navy. --By a notice in the advertising columns of this paper it appears that the books of subscription to the stock of the Virginia Volunteer Navy will be closed, under the regulations of the charter of the company, on the 16th inst.--The time left for receiving subscriptions is, therefore, very brief. The company has, from what we learn, a bright prospect. It has already one fine ship ready completed and officered to sail out upon the seas in quest of game. Another will fs a pecuniary enterprise, the adventure of the volunteer navy is likely to prove exceedingly profitable. Of course, there is peril in it, but the chances are greatly in favor of it. It is not improbable that, after the closing of the books on the 16th, the stock will not be again sold as low as the par value. With their fast vessels, competent officers, and brave crews, the Yankee commerce will be soon laid under heavy tribute. These vessels will do a better business than blockade runners, wh
Robert E. Lee (search for this): article 1
correspondent of the New York World, under date of the 10th instant, says: Preparations for the grand movement on Richmond, which will now be delayed by the storm in Virginia, are going forward with quiet but vehement energy. The reorganization of the Army of the Potomac has been generally perfected. Gen. Baldy Smith will command two army corps, which are organizing at Fortress Monroe. The troops under his commrnd will be pushed up the Peninsula, whilst the Army of the Potomac keeps Lee's forces vigorously occupied. Gen Burnside will attempt his old route via Goldsboro', cutting the railroad at that point. The World's correspondent expresses the opinion that this grand combination will compel the rebels to fall back from the line of the Rapidan to the defences of Richmond, and that the greatest battle of the war will be fought in the vicinity of the Confederate capital. He also states that these defences have been strengthened, and that mines have been prepared at "se

The plantation had been leased by the Government and was being extensively worked by the lessee. A resolution for the expulsion of Mr. Long of Ohio, was adopted by the House of Representatives on the 14th by a vote of 81 yeas to 58 nays. A two-thirds vote was required to effect the expulsion.

This order has been issued, it is said, in view of an early forward movement.

Baltimore papers, of the 12th instant, have been received. The news is quite interesting. The last quotation of gold in New York is one hundred and seventy three and an eighth. The highest premium heretofore given was 172, in February, 1863, soon after Burnside's defeat at Fredericksburg. We have been furnished by the Agent of the Press Association with the following abstract: The Red river expedition — defeat of the Yankees near Shreveport Confirmed. The Baltimore Gazette of the 12th, in its editorial news summary, says: That a battle took place on Cane river on the 1st appears to be conceded in New Orleans, but the military authorities have vouchsafed no information concerning either the battle or the result. The New Orleans correspondent of the New York World intimates that the Federal troops were so severely handled on the occasion as to lead to the belief that the expedition will have to be abandoned. The writer states on the authority of passengers and of
