Tbe Nothern' papers report active movctnenta by pur men in Kentucky, and the whole State is ablaze' again with excitement of a "rebel invasion."-. Oar troops are reported mov ing towards the border, and the revolution in the gaUaot old State seems to be revived in good ernest. So rapid has - been the advance of bur men that the Union men bavo become great'y alarmed, and tbe Washington GoTernwient has been appealed to for immediate aid. .Skirmish ing bas commenced botween-the two line, and it was feared in the North that our force; wou'd push on before re-inforcernents could bo got there. Ex-Sccretary Guthrie, the leader of the Union party in Kentucky, has appealed, to Lincoln for troops to be immediately sent out, and the news we get from the North shows that the whole Yan kee concern at Washington is hi great foars of an uprising of the people of that Slate, so loDg over awed and held in submission by tbe bayonet and cannon's mouth. This is a new movement on the part of our friends in Kentucky, and if notcrush ed by overpowering numbers of the enemy before it shall gather strength, it may be the means of redeeming and disenthralling that unhappy State from the graip of the) Yankees.

By the arrival of the Creole, we have t':e fol lowing intelligence rVom Havana: The Confede rate gunbjat Florida was coaling at Havana on tho 20 lb ult. Sho departed the next day the Bio Bio hence for New York; via Havana, leaving at the same limo, but did not molest the latter, ow ing, it is said, to a pledge given the Captain Gen- eral to that effect. The San Jacinto pursued the Florida immediately upon her leaving port, but she eluded, hr pursuer. ' A number of othf r United 'States war voiels subsequently weftt in search bf tbe, Florida, and succeeded in compelling ber to take refuge in K" v ' Jamaica, where she wa lying t last acciuntiC Among the ves sels destroyed by the Florida was a bark from New Orleans (name unknown) Uh a cargo of sugar and molasses for a Northern port. The Purser of the Creole favors us with tho following- . The Flotida, Kabel guoboat, is reported to have capture-J ten vessels of the United Stated commercial marine, beiw-een thir ports and San Juan de los Rumedios, AH the United Stales war vessels in tbe vicinity of the coast of Cuba are in pursuit of the audacious depredator, aud they will not .catch, her," 1 THE REVKR3E .TO THE DITION. NEGRO EXPE- We have publishedan account of the utt r de feat of the Yat.kee ; negro expedition against Jacksonville, F la. .We take the following fcom a PorVRoyal letter to the New York World: On Thursday night a steamer came in from Fernandina wiih reports indicating that the force of l.OOfrnegroe wbich descended the St. Mary's river on the 9lh of March bad raet with a most severe reveraeand probablybad been -captured. . It will be. remembered that tuis fvrce carried with it teveral thousand muskets f r the avowed purpose of supplying with arms all the slaves whom they could incite to' i(isurection.

Besides- these vessels, the rebels are bailding, at Selma, a fifty gun frigate,' iron-clad which they, intend floating down the ri"fer on hogheai. The'e are now two rams readj at that point, and on the day the three men left a draft of twenty four sailors were sent hp the river to take them down. Two more rams were nearly finished and ex pected doh in a few weeks.": ".!.. The channel in Mobile hay is blocked up by sunken vessels,, but thre are no torpodoes su-k.-in it. The rebels possess, however, a peciliar invention in the shape ot an "infernal" arrangsmeoi, worked by clock jwprk, which is set off against a Teasel at a dista&ce of a mile. j l. Fort Gaines, on Danphin Island, monnts twenty-two guns; Fort Morgan, on themain land, one hundred and. twenty gons ; Fort Grant, at Grant's Pass, oo the north-vrect side of Dauphin IslaDd,' thfeo guest whilo at the mouth of Spanish river, a heavy iron-clad bat tery., mounting 10 inch and LI inch enm, and at Dosr .river a.ioraudable sanr battery co-smands the cbn-1 net. Un the east side or the fcpanith river the ship Danube, mounting six guns and heavily iron-clad, is anchored. ' She is officered from the army. There is no scarcity of iron lor mailing vessels, as the rebels are converting railroad rrou, t ikon from the abandoned railroads, into iron for t&tve.sels. The stock of cotton ia Mobile is quite large, but there is but very little trade. Prices of prorisions range quite high. Rice flar soils at $6 per bbl ; shoes and boots" at $2V to $50; caps $10 ; overcoats, of common quality, $100 ; pantalouca$75 to $80. NEW YORK. POLITICS ANOTHER FUSION PARTY. The New York correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger writes : It may be of Home interest to the student of New York politics, at a distance, to knew that a programme for the construction of anew Conservative (or fusion) party has bena formally agreed toby a number tff prom inent Republicans on the one hand and Democrats on the ether.- The object is to leave cut. ia the cold all radical Republicans like Horace uieely, and all radi cal peace men like fernaado and Borj. ood. Witb a machine thus constituted, it.is thought there will be no difficulty in hitching.it oa to the Administration, or hitohing the Adminitrati'on on to it, and tlus syste matjcaily prepare the way for the next Presidential campaign. Prosper M. Vetmor-, Chas. Gould, Mayoi Opdyke (Republicans,) with James T.' Brady a -d John Van Buren, (Democrats,) are among the gentle men most conspicuous in tbe movement. This organ ization bids fair to be productive of singular result?, curious combinations, etc., in apposiSon to be devel oped in due time. . Who knows but that the radicals thus affronted will form a grand combination, too, for mutual pretention, and that we' may yet live long eaough to see the philosopher of the Tribune hand in glove with the politicians of the Copperhead persuasion ? Wo are living in strange tines, and New York politics (ever an enigma to outsiders) bid fair to be now,' more than ever, of all'strange things tbe strangest. PROTECTION AGAINST EXTORTIONERS. The Columbia (Ga.) Enquirer says : The mechanics of this. city are progessing'ausoi ciously in their movement to protect themselves agayist speculation abd extortion, by associating their capital for the purchase of supplies. With commen dable liberality and patriotism they include the fa mi lies of soldiers in the benefits that may be secured by the association, by agreeing that such families may obtain from t htm supplic-s it cost and charger. An association Somewhat similar has been formed in Atlanta.
