July 21, I860 ly tm news-! I Pensacola Correspondence of the I Sun. Fexsacola-, May 13. Six companies of the 5th Regiment, Georgia YoliThteers, have arrived. The Georgia Greys and Irish Volunteers arrived at 12 oclock last night. The Regiment is being, encamped on the Railroad, about one mile from town, where they will remain until the Colonel arrives and reports his field and staff officers, when a position will be given and duties assigned them.

The boys are all in good spirits, and are generally in very good health. It is the most orderly camp I ever saw. Every man conducts b'mst lf as becomes a soldier a- and the prospect- -iiggment are poor. My opinion is' that several weeks will elapse before the fight will commence. Gen.

Bragg is not as well prepared as a looker-on would suppose, and he is not going to sacrifice his men. When the fight commences you may be sure we arc all riyht. The idea of storming the fort a little gain; for 1 Wt without any great didicity. Intercourse Between the Navy Yard and Pensacola has ceased, except by officers who go on duty. I was over yesterday and permitted to pass only by showing my authority.

Everything is conducted in military manner, and we have to make an exhibit in going about. This course was adopted to keep spies and idle talkers from knowing what is going on, Every soldier is prohibited from giving the press or outsiders any information he may possess of Gen. Braggs intention; so I cannot tell you what I knots, but 1 cau assure you I know but little. All sorts of rumors are afloat, and reports fly so thick and fast that we give credence to nothing we hear. We cau only remain quiet and allow things to develop themselves as they may.

It may interest your readers to know a little about this place and its people, as everybody has heard of Pensacola, but that is about all. This is not a prepossessing place by any means. The streets are narrow and badly paved, and pedes-trains at night barely escape with whole limbs, so rugged and rough are the walks. The Houses principally arc old, dilapidated, one story, wood shanties; not more than one half ever experienced the painters touch. Three large brown wooden A Xoiii.f.

The law whih goes into operation on the first proximo, requires pre-payment iu money, until the necessary stamps and stamped envelopes can be procured, at the rate of five cents per letter, weighing not more than half an ounce, for any distance not exceeding five hundred miles: and five cents additional for every half onnee or fraction of an onnee; over five hundred miles double these rates. Advertised letters will be charged two cents in addition to the regular postage. All drop letters, and letters placed in the office for delivery only will be charged two cents; newspapers, circulars and other printed transient matter placed in the office for delivery only, will be charged one cent.

The postage on weekly papers within the Confederate States will be ten cents per quarter; for a paper published six times per week six times that amount, and for other publications in proportion. magazines weighing not more than one and a half ounces will be charged two and one half cents per quarter, and periodicals published quarterly or bi-monthly will be charged two cents per ounce.

Striae lishers of newspapers are efiTtricri to pend and receive from their respective offices of publication, one copy of each publication free of postage. The postage system of the Confederate States willl go into operation in about two weeks. We are confident the Postmaster General has done all iu his power to make the transition from one Government to another, as little felt as possible. If auy of our citizens should be at all inconvenienced by the change, we hope they wild endeavor to bear it in the best manner. In a short time, we have no doubt, everything connected with the Department will be found to work smoothly and harmoniously.

Hunt. Ado. Diabolism. The Xew York Tribune chronicles exultingly an account of the recent horrible occurences at St. Louis, where unoffending women and children were murderd in cold blood by a band of armed minions of the Lincoln government, and says the work of bringing the people of Missouri to reason has been weli begun 1 Think of that, men of the South, you who have mothers, wives, sisters and daughters, and let the remembrance that the leading journal of the Xorth openly exults over the brutal murder of those whose very weakness should have been their protection, nerve your arms in the day when you shall meet yonr dastard enemies on the field of battle.

In the mean time a committee has been appointed to arrange for Government buildings, and $10,000 appropriated to meet expenses. Many of the members have already left for home, and the remainder go to-day.

Several important bills, which have been passed this session, will now be made public. Monl. 22h instH In a tabic given iu one of the last speech es deliverd by L. M. Koitf, in the U.

S. Congress, it was shown that the Nothern or Free States, have 9,334 miles of sea-coast, and the Southern or Slave States, 23,803 -a total North and South of miles. Mr. Keitt also gave the num ber of harbors iu the different States on the coast and the principal on the rivers at the head of tide. For the free States, the number of harbors pat down is 189; and for the slave States, 249, showing a difference of 60 harbors in favor of th Southern States.

WILLIAMS. May 4-Gl 3t Judge Probate. A Nf.gbo IIcxo. A negro man, belonging to Mrs Lijcon, who resides in the 17 th District of fliis county, was at Kingston on last Thursday, for plannijm; and endeavoring to incite an insurrcctiOT. He was tried by a committee of twelve citizens, and the evidence was considerd sufficiently conclusive as to his guilt to warrant his conviction and execution.

According to his own statements, it was one of the most diabolical schemes ever devised by any fiend to murder the citizens of this county, ijnd take possession of their property-. A white man by the name of Underwood was implicated in the plot. He is now in jail, committed on a charge of treason. Several other negroes were implicated, but we have not learned the precise nature of the evidence adduced against them. When such conspiracies as these are detected our citizens cannot be too vigilent in watching the action of the negroes and mean white-men.

Cassville Standard, 17 Beauregard Dead. The Philadelphia North American now-lias it that Gen. Beauregard was killed at the Sumter fight. -The following is the story: AVe saw last evening, at a public house in Walnut street, a seaman lately from Charleston, who declares that, to las. personal knowledge, General Beauregard was killed in tho bombardment of Sumter The statement made by our informant is that Beauregard was killed a spent ball, inflicting a cranial contusion, from the effects of which he subsequently died.

His remains w-ere scaled in a metalie coffin and couvcyed to France. FOB is not that flag disgraced and humiliated at once Is not a flag more to be honored, and is it not more respected in the hour of defeat, when defended by gallant and brave spirits, than when victorious in the hands of the outcasts of society The Northern people evince by their action a knowledge of their coming defeat, or else all that is sacred to the honor of a people would not be abandoned at the very inception of war. Of several of the regiments already mustered into service, the most rabid Black Republican papers not only admit them to be thieves, but penitentiary convicts, and even exult over the fact. What have wo to fear from such men, beyond the gratification of their propensity Jo steal? Patriotism among such trumps w-Un absurdity, for a bribe of a few dollars would procure any information or service that it might be advisable to obtain. In a contest, a great deal depends upon tho accuracy of yonr knowledge of the foe you are fo encounter.

AVe do not fear the result on any battle field with such a foe, for 1,000 of sue.li men would demoralize and almost insure the defeat of 10,000, and by their bad behavior before an enemy turn the tide of battle. Onr only regret is that our troops have not a foeman worthy of their steel. Mobile Register A Colored Scene on the lload to Washington.
