. The business of the passport bureau, which, till lately, hardly gave employment to a single clerk and an assistant, since the promulgation of the order for drafting, has required three additional clerks, and the receipts from the tax on passports average more than three hundred dollars per day. It has been ascertained that this sudden increase of passengers for Europe was occasioned by the skedaddling of persons liable to be drafted. In this immediate vicinity numbers of the chivalry of Maryland have been making prepations for an extemporized summer tour among the Alps. Complaints have also been received that thousands of young men in Ohio have betaken themselves to Kentucky or Canada to be out of the way about the 15th of August.

She is heavily armored, and her portholes are protected by heavy wrought iron lids, so arranged as to close at the recoil of every gun. She has a missive beak at either end, and is moreover, provided with a scalding apparatus, with which to repel any attempt to board her. Her commander is J.

I saved Kentucky in 1860 against Buchanan and his infamous den of thieves at Washington, aided by Breckinridge and friends, and therovost Marshal of Lexington, demanding upon what charges and information, and the reason why Mrs. Mitchell had been subjected to the terror and humiliation of an arrest in a foreign State, when alonernment.

She was feeling her way, apparently unmindful of the shot from our heaviest guns. Of course the intelligence was not long in reaching Hilton Head. From that moment such preparations as we have been able to make for a proper reception have been in progress. The heaviest of our transport steamers have been placed under the orders of Admiral Dupont. Gunboats have been stationed at each approach, and new signal lines have placed them in instant communication with headquarters. We shall know when the ram passes Pulaski what direction she takes, and what her evident purpose is, long before we see her. Meanwhile the rebels are concentrating at Bluffton, at Hardeesville, and at Grahamsville. It is apparently their plan first to destroy our fleet, and then to move the Fingal around to Seabrook, and there cover the landing of their for
