" k" 8poial Correrpondeoca of the Chiaago Timet. Moon Lake, February 22I ftmagine net a little inquiry will be excited at the date cf a communication from Moon Lake. Maps will be hunted in vain to0od it. True, the lake appears on good maps cf the M ia 8issippi river and of the JState of Mississippi, bat do n ime is given it. The map makers never dreamed that this little sheet of water would ever rise to importance in the history of oar country ; yt it ia destined to have some notoriety bereafur as the rendezveosof the Yaioo pass expedition. Moon Lake is a f mall lariated sheet cf water, about eight miles jn length, with an averege wioth of half or two-thirds cf a mile, and bearing ua eeistskable indications of having-, at soma past timf, been a section of the bed of the Mississippi river. It lies directly esst ol the M isiissippi, and is reached thro' a very narrow and difficult pass, about a mile in length forming the western end cf the Yazoo pass. To ppeak as intelligently as possible, I should say that the Yzio pass runs through this lake. It enters it from the Mis sissippi atthe northern cidfcai:d leaves it again about the centre. In passing from the river into the pass there is a ridge cr narrow bar to be cro-sed, immedi attly bevond which, the pass masei u short, right angu lar tend to the lefr. The water flows over this ridg? with wonderful vtloetty, almcst rtsembling a cataract, and a s'eamer has to be nicely bundled to prevent iis being thrown into the woods just beyond the ridge, acd turning the bend to the It It, the channel of the lake is very straight and easy of navigation, having a anilorm depthofabjut three fathoms, with a current at the present time cf not far from four miles an tour. The only trouble i the narrowness of the Etream, which af fords no opportunity for vessels moving in eppesite di rections to pass each other, and requires skillful piloting o keep them out cf the woods that line iJs edgis ; it has no banks. The wid b betweeu the timber scarcely exce(d3 seventj-five ftef, thou ih occasionally may be found places of short length, where it wielens oat a hun dred f;-tt. About midway of this puss ia the great Mi sieeippijevee, built by the State in 1856, to shut up this channel, and reclaim large tracts of land in the interior of the State th. had formerly been annually inundiitid by the water of tne Mitsies'ppi river Hawing ca through this outlet. This 1- ve ia one of the ltrgeet and finest io be Eeen in the Mississippi valley. It was bu-lt at a ereat fxpeupe, aid an outlay of a vast amount of labor. Its dtst ueticn at the point wiura it crosses the chan nel cf U.is pass as but the work of a dy by a c-mii detachment o! our trocps. They had oily to cut a small hole in it to start the water, when the rpid cur rent and vast volume of water soon tore the res t mckir.g the gap cf equal width with the pass it't. At'er reacnicg the lake there -is no farther trouble until we gaiu enter the pass leading on to Ccldwater river. The lake, as I have 8id above, has ab-ut the seme width as the Mississippi river, and bee now a uni form depth over its whole area sufficient to float the largest class of steam rs. It is a very picturesque and biauiiful sheet of water, the entrance to and txtt from which, both b?"mg eo very narrow find through thick wo:ds, can scarcely be eeen a hundred yards away from their mouths. The shores are high and dry. Oj the eastern bank there are two or three fine plantations; but, with these exceptions, the surroundings are an un broken fore3t. Its isolatiou, and consequent quiet, have made it a great resort for aquatic birds of all kinds. Wild ducks and geese abound here ia profusion. Oc casionally a swan is seen. PelicauB and gulla fly about over it3 surface with the utmost freedom. The water being deep, cool, and comparatively clear, abounds with fLh of all kind.-. In ?act, the place is a very paradise for sportsmen cr, rather. I should have said, was, pri or to the advent of this fleet into its quiet waters. So unusual a siglu as large steamers, puffing asd snorting tbout, has frightened the game away, and even the fish es manifest a shynesj now, as if they, too, had beccme alarmed by the disturbance of the water. Such is the tendv zvoua for thie expedition. It is but about eight miles lrom Helena, from which place, vts seis can be sent at any time as they may be got ready, at d avoid exposure to the investigations and obrerva ticn of spies. A casual observer at Iltkna can form no possible idea ot the character or magnitude ot this expedition, as he can s.fe but one or two boats at a time, and even then is left to guess whether they are in tended for this movement or not. Aud on this I bise my strongest topes for the aiccc3 of the; movement. TLe cs.emy, through our owj recklessness, or treachery, lave had timt'f iuf rmatlon of our intention to etnd ae expedition dosvn this pass ; bat, a3 yet, we have cvvry rcasos to bdicve that they are in total ignorance of ;he migruttK'e f.ucl formidable ctisracter'cf the txpfidiiion I do not give them credit for enfHcienl gullibility to be hevo that we contemplate sending heavy iron-clad gun boats some of the largest of our hjet down this nar- row and tortuous pa as ; ncr prepared to see U3 apj reach 2urbe3t3 cf any h:ud. Ior Co I believe they will be with any gteat number oi yet can they be expec'td to anticipate the epproach of larjre eteemers, loaded with soldiers and artiliry, through thi3 route, which has never before been navigated by anything but flat boats propelled by tie force of the current and guided by hand. Tiendesvcniinji therefore, in thk secluded spot, where there is no likelihood of being seen by the enmy, there is every recscn to anticipate that, when we move forward in a body and come upon them, we shall trk? them completely by sarpr-gi, at last I hops so ' If we do not take tha enemy by surprise it thev shall chance to be fully informed of the nature end ex tent of our preparations, and shall be fully prepared to mact ns God help u! Tbfre will be no escape lor any of u. When we advance beyond this rendezvous, there is no return for us. The pass from hsre to Cold wat r i3 mueh narrower and infiuibfly more tortuous, with a more rapid current, than that leading :rora the Mississippi into the lake. On.e through that, we can never get these beata bnck again through it. The cur rent itself would be a euflicient impediment to oar re i urn, d:d none other ex.as.. Oar only ciiance, then, i io liht cur way through to Vicksburg. 'I ha orjv watch vrord we can have will be to fight or die. It wa3 in the stretch beyond this lake, leading to the Cold water river, that the enemy sought to obstruct the chenntl so 3 to prevent our boats fnm getting through The distance is not, far from fitteen miles by the course of the paes. Throughout this distance they filled the chanuel with logs, trees, stumps, and all manner of ob stacles. Our troops have been at work nearly three weeks in clearing out these obstructions, and in cut ting away the timber that overhaDg3 the stream. They are not through with this labor jet, though just ho far thev have sot I am unable to say. They have bee; much aanojed in their labors by email partus of rebels who hover about in tne woods and nrt upon tnem fcy. irreat did tbi3 annoyance become, that a battalion o the 5th Illinois cavalry was fkaly sent down to seou." the banks aed drive bick the enemy. A detechoient of this cavalry had quite a briik ekirmisn on Friday, with a company of about sixty mounted rebels, fiaaliy di?nersing them, after kitlitg six cf their number, woui dine; several more, and capturing twenty-six pris oners. Oar own los3 was but trifling, only five or eix beic: wo .nded. A Eervtls I iurreeslon la Foutti Cuill .n Zedliatcd by i he Yetikt'S The Aew York Tribune, in its editorial coiamn says : "We have from cur special correspondent at Port R'.iyal the startling announcement that, a force of 5,000 negroes, led by whites and supported by regular troops is just ready to enter one of the mo3t densely populated districts ol the Department of tha South, in order to summon its emancipated blacks toarms. Communication have been established with the negroes, and they wait only for the appearance of the liberating force, to spring to arms and rally under the national flag. Sad len and irresistible as an avalanche, this 'blow will lall where preparation and defencs are alike impossible. The Re public is at length about to strike at the heart of the Rebellion, and the Proclamation of Freedom, hated and derided by every enemy to the Nation, shall be heard in trumrjet tones oa the Dlantations of Carolina, and ecu oed on the battle-field by the cannon's opening roar." The following extract frcm the Hilton Head corres poudence of the same journal is the intelligence referred to : " For some weeks preparations for a foray upon an extensive scale into some ot the most thickly popuia ted districts cf ne of the threa States comprised in the Department of the South, have been in progress with the greatest possible secrecy. Few parsons within oar lines are aware of the pnject even at this time, when orders to begin the movement are about being given I he plan is to surprise the rebels, not with the phan torn, but the reality of servile insurrection, by the sud dtn .appearance in arms, in the region selected, of a body cf no less than 5,000 negroes, properly led by whites and supported by regular troops.

Bold Sentiment at the NorlU. The Richmond Dispatch has received a late copy ol the New York Caucasian a paper noted for the bold ness of its protests against the usutpation of power by L'ccola. Seme of the articles are interesting, both for their boldness and the truths they contain. From one of the editorials, headed " The Destiny of the West," we extract ,tbe following : The South, endangered by this huge and devilish Iu naoy of Abolitionism, seceded, withdrew, and utterly refold to recogmzs ai its Chief Magistrate one who not only did not represent the will and wishes of a sin gle citizen 4n fifteen States, but who was pledged to carry out principks which, if he had ventured to avow them twenty years ago in the etreets of this or any other Northern eity, would have caused his being mob bed and beaten with rotten eggs! Hut they should haw submitted, of course, to thote pledged to use the j.reslige and power of the common Government against slavery, against the peace, order and safety of society, tor the gradual extinction of the Fupremacy of the white citizen and in favor ot the impartial freedom and consequent amalgamation with their negroes for their children, if not themselves. Yes, they should have sub mitted to the form, of coarse, though the fpi'it was utteily dead, and trusted to the ballot box in the North, for safety, esp ciaily a3 the friends of the South were in a minority in every NorfLern State, ard there was not a sir gle politician among them who did. cot as sent to the fundamental principle of the Abolitien par ty, and thus j.ive tp the whr.le question at the ttarL On the contr&ry, they really believed themselves the best possible Jndges of their own safety, " both of the measure and of the mode of redrets," as advised Iodk etnee by Jefferson, and as the prcspeet it having their rights defended by others, while they stood still and h oked cn, wa?, to say the le? st, rather dubious, they took their d-suny in their own bands and placed them selves, for the time being, beyond the scope of a Gov ernment tin preverted from an instrument of common becefJeeoc into a machine of sectional ruin. Of cr.msc, e repeat they did wrong. They should have enbmit Ud, at all events, until all the departments of the Fed eral Government, as well gs ail the Governments' of the Northern States, were iu the bands of the Southern party, nd then, with tha precedent cf submission be lore them, and bound helplessly at the feet cf " impar tial freedom," why they might resist perhaps if they could. But they met the Abolition monster at the threshold, instead of fighting for the preservation of society at the hearthstone, ai-d though blod has been poured out like w:er on the soil cf Virginia the cauEe ot u impartial freedom " has thua far miscarried in the land of Washington. If the Northern " friends of .the South " bad fora-d Mr. L.nccla to abandou the " principles " of his party, and to stand by the decisioo of the Supreme Court, of course there would have been no secession nor one drop ot blocd spille i in Virginia ; and therefore it is abso lutely certain that the battles on the Potomac are fought lor the idea of" impartial freedom "on one Bide, and the prtservation of society and the true principles of the Constitution on the other. Bat the battles in the West are meant, at least by those who do the fighting, to represent fcomething entirely different. The West is not yet abolitionized, and if the actual, henett question were before it, wculd fight for r.eoo slavery " rather than amalgamation cr " impartial freedom." They are deluded and betrayed by the E&fi, ard made the tools of New England cupidity and lanaticism. All the peo ple living on the Mississippi are the same reople,have ne same ideas, the same interests, and forced into con flict v. i:h ea;h other by distant and remote communi ties, the battie3 they ht arc among thesaddtst things ho wor d ver saw, and enough to rr.oke anarels weep. I'hose of the upper Mississippi rai-.e wheat, perk, beef stock, fcc, while tho?e below them raise cotton, tobac co, mz-s, c , and Providence has bestowed on them this mighty riv. r fcr the exchange of their products. i Iu the Latural order of things, and the development f Democratic institutions, they should acquire Cuba, I laii, Centra! America, &c, aid reetore industry and civilization to the naturally fertile and senial regions now blasted and wiLhtred ty the hidtx-.s Abolition d- Urion, and, if necessary, the man at the .Northern ouree 'A the great river should crme to the aid of the man at its noamcra cutlet lor me txicsion ot se-ca'tea Iavcry and the accomplishment cf the.r common des iny. Tho citizsns of Illinois or Wisconsin, in ex changing the products of bis labor with the ptoducer of the South, should have sngar at Fix cents a pound, and other things in proportion, ana seme diy, when reason and -ictere st, instead of folly and crime, and fan aticism, rule the hoar, ail this will be real-zed. Meanwhile, these people of the great valley, these American Democrats, whoee interest end whose de&t nits are indivLible.Ure catting ech other's throat3 with the utmcet Jury. As obectved, there is no d.rierence. even ot abstract sentiment. TJnhke the Es5:, thev re use to amalgamate tha negro in their system, as i.bo-uu-lv.as in Miisisiippi, and if really forced aruong thr m by New Englacd, IiliLO:?, Sec, wcuM fight ss promptly lor ''alavery, or lor retaining tne negro in nis normal r.dition, as does the lormtr. What then are ttKSi brothers in tne great valley fighting for. WLy, it is aid a "Hag I' Well, that wru'd do, certainly, it tie fl g" repiesents their principles : but if otherwise, if it is made te 63mbol ol all that they hate, and all that is hostile to their own welfare, why then they are as be sotted acd abject as the slaves of England or Russia, who woranip iao!a m the form or b. ngs. Again, it is said that tl ey are fighting for "free trade" on the Mis sissippi that is, ngbting for the tarm plunaerers ot the East, wno tax tnem aa aiiKe, ana against me actual free traders of the lower Mississippi. It is all a delu- sion : a crimina?, awiui mtstaKe. inemenorine vvcei - i rt"A mi. : e TT7 utterfv abhor Abolitionism, Puritanism, taxifiL-m, and all the other deviiisms of New England.

Under ti e fcead of "A Massachusetts War," the Cau casian has the following article : The journals of the day tell the story ot a certain Major Willard, of Boston, mortally wound-d at Fred ericksburg, who, in taking a fioal leave of Li3 friend?, solemnly charged those Ircm Massachusetts to stand brtvely up to the fight, for thn was a Msesachtsetts war, and 'therefore every true sen of that Slate should do hi3 best to uphold its glory and boner, and briug the war to a glorious ttrmination by subduing the " rebels ot the South." It is traly and emphatically a Massa chusetts war, and the State tbat never supported any other war, nor, from the hour of its creation, furnished one eingle soldier to support the Government of the United States, is fairly entitled to all the honors if honors there be in the present unfortunate conflict. When Baltimore and Washington were threatened by the British in the war cf 1812, Mr. Madison made a requisition for volunteers to defend the capital, but not a r . 1 f n . . one single man was forthcoming from Massachusetts But when a false and foolish pretence was set up that Virginians were going to attack the capital, Massa chusetts was alive with patriotism, and her " brave and chivalrous sons piomptly responding, crew the first blood from the surprised acd unarmed citizens of Balti more. Mr. Lincoln had scarcely entered the "White Hous-?, and sworn fealty to Massachusetts, before a resiment from that State was sect to garrison Fort Monroe, and thus to outrage the feelings and insult the amor propre of v irgmia. Finally. Butler, the "hero of Massachusetts," even Before the regular invasion cf Virginia, was put in com mand of Fortress Monroe, and expected, of course, to insalt and humiliate the Virginians to the utmost ex tent of his capacity. Afterwards, when New Orleans had bitn captured by the brave old navy of the coun try, again Massachusetts was thrust ia the foreground, and Butler placed in command of the Gulf. Indeed, in every instance where "power" was to be won, and mon ey made in this war Massachusetts was ia the advance, whether it was to carry off a State library, steal the 8wor is of brave men, or plunder the property of non combitanvs. Well, it i3 all right. It is the only war she ever supported, and let her ehcre its honors, in Heav en's name. But it is only fair that she should erjay its reFults' Thai will be a half milion of disease and bro ken down men, incapable of supporting tbeiiidelvea in the future, a debt of two .thousand millions, and per haps, il the proclamation is successful, half a million of big and little negroes, acd as far as she ia concerned, the 103S of the union forever. ' Wnat-a beautiful State, to be sure !half a million of paupera and haif a million of free Americana of African descect," and a debt cf two thousand millions, And, worm than all, wish.' no more' chance lo plunder other Stater through kfer tariff humbugs ! iS or is likely to be Jhe' whole eflair. All the Abolition lota tics of the other States, with -.honest eld Abe" at their head, will, most probably, emigrate to Maesacha settB, where they can erjoy " impartial freedom " to their hearts content, and contemplate, at tneir leisure, the ruin and desolation that surround tbem, and which they labored with the energy of devils to inflict on others, but wbicb, in tha unerring justice cf Heaven; teas at last inflicted on theo-selves. ' An article on Free Discussion " closes thus : - Any attempt to revive their Baatilea or to fetter the press again would be the srgoal for civil war in the North. The firm resolve fads' gone forth the advice of Senator Sanlsbury is recorded iu ihe inmost hearts of thousands : " Ratter than submit' to illegal arrrst. to defend themselves to the last." Rather than to see a free press, " the palladium of the people's rights," again stricken down, thousands would sei their lives in its defence. The people are sick and tired of the inani ties, lollies, and stupid despotifcns of this weak and wick ed Administration. I hey will not be tiifled with any more. They mutt not be provoked. It will not do to make new experiments in tyrannj. A single match now applied, would produce a fearful explosion. If peo ple do aot think we are living in revolutionary times, let them attend any Democratic meeting, and sea how the most ultra and extreme sentiments are applauded. A bold, bad man, could now set cur country - running in blood. We conjure Republicans aa they value peace atd order, to adhere to the Constitution an 1 tha laws. Democrats will never violate them. They never have ; but if forced to choose between submission to further violation cf them or resistance to wrong the decision will not be doubtful. No individuals have so much interest in adhering strictly to law as Republicans, and if they have any faculty in "discerning tha signs of the timta," it is not necessary for bb to point out the rea son why. luii.rt iutiit oik t Large FcI Wok en Lead tike Wmy Nobody Hurt, Rte. onespond.cjice of the Petersburg Daily Express Salisbury, N. C., March 18th. Dear Express .- Salisbury has wifnesied to-day one of the gayest and liveliest scenes of the ge. About 12 o'clock, a rumor was tfloat, tbat the wive3 of several soldiers now in the war, intended to make a dash on some flour and other necessaries of life, belonging to certain gentlemen, who the ladies termed "speculators," They aheged they were entirely out of provisions, end unable to give the inorinous prices cow asked, but were willing to :ive Government prices. Accordingly, about 2 o'clock they me, some 50 or 75 in number, with exes and hatchet-, and prcceed to tfce depot of the North Ctrotina Central Road, to impress some there, but were very politely met by the agent, Mr. , with the en quiry : "What on earth ia the matter ?'' The exci ted women said they were in search of "flour," which thfy hiid learnf d bad been stored there by a certain fpeeulator. The agent assured tbem such was not the case. They still insisted on examining the depot, but alter a while desisted and made their way up town to the store of one of the oldest and mcst respected citiaens. They commenced a general attack on his lumber room, in which was stored a large quantity of flour. Tfce old gentleman eteirg their determination to have. the flour, compromised the matter by saying if they wou'd desi3t he would give them tea barrels which he readily did. They then went to the store of a large firm, (one of tbem a Petersburger,) to impress his flour. They heard Le had been speculating, bat were sadly mistaken, be only having seven (7) barrels. But he like a good citi zen, mfcde them a present of three barrels, and remarked tbat any soldier's wife cculd get anything io reason from aim. AVbat a great pity thete are not more of the same kind. The word march was given, acd onward they went to the Government warehouse, ender the superintendence of a gentleman from South Carolina, to see if tbey cculd impress anything there. He very politely opened the door, and . avethem every facility to examine the premises. They soon dispersed from, thera not finding a Uuog they cculd impress. 1 1 ey then met a gentleman on the street who they had been told, bad salt, on which, they raid he intended tc speculate. Lie assured them most positively that such was not the ease : tbat it was sent to him to Eell. They insisted cn having a bag. He reiterated what he had toid them, tut suid rather than have the salt im pressed, he would make them a present of a bag and a twenty dollar Confederate note. I heir cry was stdl for more, end they proceed -d down the street to the store of ano asr highly respectable mer- hant, who, I euppose, rather tban te botnered gave them a ban el of molasses. Finally, acd now came the richest ecene of all, they retcrned to the d?pot of the North Carolina Road, and again demanded the agent tbat they 03 allowed to go iu. He still refused, but finally agreed to iet two go in and examine the fljur, and see if his statement was not correct. A restlessness pervaded the whole body, and out a few moments elapsed before a female vice was heard Fayicg : "Let s go in." The agent remarked : . "Ladies, I hope you will desist from this course, for it is useless to attempt it, unless you go in over my dead body." A rush was made, and ia they went, and the ist I s?.w of the agent, he was sitting on a log blowing tike a March wind. They took ten barrels, aud rolled them out and were felling on tbem, when I left, waiting for a wagon to haul it a way. W hue the agent was eit- icg on ti e lot?, a ternirr came up and desired to Know if he could ship some tobacco to Charlotte. Yes, was the reply, but il you store it ia the warehouse, it will be at your own risk don't you see the women have just pressed ten barrels of flour. The farmer fearing thry would learn to chew and press the I obaoco, very speed iiy retired. Yours, TERKAMir. Novst IMPRE8EMEUT. Fifteen or twenty women, the leader of whom carried a revolver, ia Atlanta, on Wednesday, went around to a cumber of grocery stores, seizing bacon, natal aEd vegetables, payiDg such prices as tbey thought proper, 'ihey were, dispersed by the police.

A North CaTI oliniah now on a visit to South Carolina, seeing com plaints of the non-reception of North Carolina Trea ury Notes in tbat State, writes us as follows : " 2s. ij. t reasury notes pass freely every where 1 have been, and the fundable six per cents are gladly taken in any quantity.

There is not, so tar as ou!d see, any-great prejudice or di.-liko to our good slow old State, but-very great interest felt in the development of her resources, particularly the iron and coal. 01 cocr?e South Carolinians would like to bene fit by tbefr development, and why not, if they offer to our people better inducements than other markets?

Letroyet t Is a question the Western papers have been discuss ing ever since the " turreted monBter " mude her ap pearance, but her fate remains inobscurity. Some ac counts icijist that she" was blown up, while other assert as positively that she will shortly be ready for service. t he Crisis " professes to solve the problem by seme " reliable knowledge of her fate, which it gives aa ro: lows : The Indianola Aqaim. For some time we have been cognizant of the fact that the attempt to destroy this boat was an utter failure. At the very time tbat the " ADDeal " announced, which it did on the 3d in stant tbat the editor had " positive knowledge " of her destruction, we had just as positive and far more re liable " knowledge ot ter safety. Tee facts we had in our possession we were requested to withhold, and we did it. We purposely failed to publish a telegram from Gen. Femberton to Gen. Cooper relating tne ran nre to irjure the boat, kst the publication should unde ceive these whom it was deemed best to keep in an ig norance of her existence. We supposed that it was understood by the press of Jackson that any informa tion that might be received here, unkss it accord ed with nrevicua statements, was not to be made public. T-e " Mississippian " of tfeis morning publishes the fact tbat only one gun was injured on board the boat, and that the Indianola would soon be, if she is not now, ready for action. Such is the fact, as we have known for nearly two weeks. - ; - Piloted. Captain Thomas Sparrow, of Beaufort county, has been promotea 10 a majority m me nr. Regiment N. O. Troops.

' ' I have read wifh close attention what you are pleased to call the "great speech of tfce Hon. C. L.

It is a mixture of sense anff nonsense, frenzy acd folly, madness and reason. After tracing faitbtully acd lucidly the rise acd progress of the Aboli tion party at the North, and proving cljarty that Lincoln is the most nefarious liar upon earth, after exposing the deceit and treachery of the villain and his par ty in the affiir atFort Sumter, in their endeavor to put the South in the wrong, by compelling her io srike the first blow ; after stating "that the secret and real purpose of the war was to abolish slave ry," and stating that Lincoln . had proclaimed "the irrepressible conflict " bat the Union could not en dure " part slave and part free ;" after statins? that he bad usurped all constitutional power, stamped that in strument under his foot ; after stating that the party of the Executive bad the entire control of the Federal Government every State Government, every county, every city, every town and village in the North and West, alter stating his call for r even ty-five thousand men : after reviewing and recapitulating the above, and much more,.foresooih be sty es the Confederate tates rebels, and consequently traitors I What frenzy I what folly ! what madness? Who are the rtb?Is and traitors, according to his own showing ? Why Lincoln and the North. What has the South done except to claim and exercise the poor privilege of self-defence ? And this self-defence is styled rebellion aad treason. After quoting the word3 of Lord Chatham, ho tells the Con gress and the Ncrth, " You bave not conquered the South. You nevtr will." He then depicts the distress in the North, almost in the language ot Holy Writ : " nd Pbaroah rose up in the night, be and all his servant?, and all the Egyptians, and there was a great cry in Egypt ; fo' there was not a house where there waa not one dead." " And cow,' says he " there is mourning ni every houe, and distress andsadne33 in every heart," and then asks the question : Can the union of the States be restored? How shall it be done? He answers in the affirmative, and goes on to show how. His .speech on this branch of bis hallucination is tru'y ludicrous and laughable. hie labors to prove that the St nth cannot do without the North ; that separated from her she would become as weak and contemptible as the Pamunkey Indians on the Eastern shore of Virginia. He says tbat the secession of the ten tribes of Israel is the only excep tion to the re-union of people who have seoarated "and their subsequent history is not encouraging to secession " that is, to the South. And now the way to re-union. What so easy ? Stop fighting.- Mafce an armistice, no formal treaty. Withdraw your army from Ihs seceded States. Reduce both armies to a fair and peace establisment. Declare absolute free trade between the North and the South. Bay and seil. Agree upon a Zilvereia. Re call your fleets. Break up the blockade. Vieit the -N orth, and South, and Wist.

" Sir, I wculd add Yankee Doodle." He be lieves strong that " music hath charms to soothe the savage breast." Was ever such an insult offered to the South ? When our women have been ravi? hd at coon day in the open streets of our cities and towns ; their houses and all their comforts and valuables reduced to ashes, an 1 they stripped almost to the state oi' nudity and compelled to lock on their husbands and children murdered in cald blood, sod other atrocities, barbari ties and cruelties prrpe'rated, which Mr. Vallandighan himself admits the English language has no words to express, the South is to be consoled with Hail Colum bia and Yankee Doolie.

From the Washington com spondent of tfce New Y01 k Tribune, we learn that a difficulty has arsen with th Confederate Government, in relation to the circumstance connected with the paroling, cfthe officers and crew of the Mercedita ; which circumstances, we are farther told, "are of unusual character, and indeed without par allel." It is rumored in naval ciccles at the North that the point iu dispute, is in regard to the right of the Confederates to the possession of the Mercedita, which was actually surrendered by captain Stellwagan to Com modcre Ingraham. It is said, but we do not know with what truth, that - Captain Stellwagen believes tbat the Federal Government ia bound in honor to give up the Mercedita, and that finding the Navy Department in disposed to adopt his views he has tendered his resigna tion Whig. .

On Tuesday last the Yan kees, wiih from 1000 to 1200 men, advanced some two or three mitea from Jatksonville. Their obiect was to burn down some buildicgs beaind wh ch the Confeder ates were stationed. Mtgor Board's battalion attack ed them, and the hght lasted about an hour, during which we had nve men wouoded, but none killed. Du ring the ekirmieh the enemy's wagons could b; seen car rying cfi their dead and wounded. The enemy being in superior force, came near surrounding the Confederates, who were compelled to n-tire to a more favorable poti tion. Ihe centre of the Yankee force was composed ol white troops, and their right ana left wings of negroa, cfScered by whites. In a few days we look for more important information from that quarter. Ihe Confed erate troops have been reinforced, and are anxious to meet the enemy. An Ukfortunats Maeeiaok.

Spears, to take a rifle piece of Wright's battery, under charge of Lieut. Wat k;o8, that has been used at one of our picket posts , The failure to accomplish it was not for lack tt bold ness, ot perhaps indiscretion ou the part of the Yankee Colonel. The cavalry mada two charges, led by Mmm Connelly, coming up eacb lima to wiihiu 40 paces of one gun acd the iifla pits. The bojs, both ot the ar tillery and infantry, behaved with remarkable cooluess, holding their fire until the enemy, about 300 an org' came within short canister ranse, and then letttcoi have it Several were left drtad upon ihe field, 12 pris oners captured; and a large number of wcucdtd were carried off in four ambulances and on horees. Major Connelly, we learned, was severely woufidtd in two places. The enemy acknowledged a loss of 75. Gen eral Jenkins, with General Davis, soon had a formida- ble army, but the Yankees left more hurriedly than ever before. This is regarded as the most brilliant lit tle affair occurring on this line, especially when we con sider that but one piece of artillery and a bandlul cf in fantry were engaged on our s:de. No casuality occur ring on "our side, but the capture of a Lieuurant of cavalry, who wa3 thrown 'rom his horse. If the enemy had delayed their skedaddling tea minutes lorger it would heve been done, if pcsiole, in quicker time ar.d in a much smaller body, as the various regiments of in fantry, Col.
