fid" -Jt Glorious Demonstration for, Indc- pcndcncc in the Capital of Tennessee. .12,000 TO lp.000 PEOPLE IN PROCESSION, ONT THE SIDEWALKS AND ON THE BALCONIES! The Eatllca Cbcerlns tho Movement for Independence ane greatest spontaneous aomonstration ever witnessed in "Nashville was that of yesterday, in which, it seemed almost the entire population of the city participated. It was evident from the hour of three o'clock, at which time crowds of ladies commenced gathering on the streets, through "which the procession was arranged to pass, that they were at least determined to show their enthusiasm for the cause of the South. At half -past three o'clock the church bells of the city commenced their chime and, thousands were seen congregating and lining the side walks of the principal thoroughfares. edate old age was there to give gravity and earnestness to the occasion, laughing children appealed to every patriotic heart rally around the sacred homesteads of Tennessee nd save them from the profanation of a ruthless no my.

Gentle womanhood proclaimed, by her pre- seiice and-kindling glance, that she gave her heart and hand to the heroic determination to drive hack the invader and throw oiT the yoke of the usurper. At about 4 o'clock the procession commenced moving. Its route was along Church street to Vine, tbnee to Cedar, and down Cedar to the Public Square. The following was the order of proces-aion: Hoax's Silver Band. 'The'rubliciSchools; consisting of about 1500 girls and boys.

Pupils of the Nashville Female Academy, on both sidewalks. In the street, and flanked by the ladies, the following military companies: -Fleet Wing Zouaves. Dunlap Zouaves. 5 Vanleer Zouaves. Edgefield Rifles.

Capt. McCkory's Marshall county company. Capt. Collier's Bedford county company. Williamson county company.

Tenth District Home Guard. Capt. Hawkins. Rock City Guard Reserve, Capt. Porter.

Another company, (name not known.) Two companies Nashville Eoma Guards. Citizens on foot. Tennessee Rangers of Cavalry, Capt. McNairt. Bragg Artillery, Capt.

Morgan-. The sidewalks, windows and balconies along the route presented the appearance of a parterre of beautiful flowers. The view from the summit of Capitol Hill, through Cedar street to the quare, was one of tho most animating spectacles we ever -witnessed. A living mass of people formed a solid column on both sidi of the street and in the middle. The view on the Public Square was also striking in the highest degree.

The business bouses, Court Houso and Market Place were crowded with spectators. After the procession arrived at the Public Square and closed up in one vast mass, the crowd, by acclamation, unanimously ratified the nomination of Gen. "Washington- Barrow for Senator from Davidson, and of Ira P. Joxes, for Representative. To this flattering and honorable testimonial, in behalf of these gentlemen, Gen.

Barrow responded in an enthusiastic, eloquent and patriotic speech, and Mr. Jones returned his acknowledgments in a patriotic, graceful and appropriate manner. Never before, in Tennessee, did two nominees receive a more unmistakable and enthusiastic endorsement from tho great popular heart. After these gentlemen concluded, the following gentlemen, in the order named, delivered stirrinp, patriotic and eloquent speeches, viz Hon. Andrew Ewinq, Hon.

W. S. Oldham, of Texas, Hon. Ne S. Brown, A.

L. Demoss, and Hon. R. B. Cheat-iiax.

Judge Olduam alluded briefly to the difliculties which had environed Texas in breaking away from the despotism of Lincoln. He said the peoplo were compelled to rise up in their majesty and brush away.the inlluence of their State Executive and proclaim itheir independence, menaced as they were continually by three thousand Federal troops. They looked towards Tennessee tlu-n anJ knew that she would be forced by oppression to exhibit the spirit of her sons and join the ranks of the Confederate army, by resistance to the most unwarranta ble despotism thct the annals of the world has ever recorded. Mr. Demoss gave utterance to this glowing and eloquent sentiment On the morning of the of June when the light of dawn shall greet the Al -leghanies with its smile, a messenger from the grave of Jackson will meet a messenger from the grave of Washinotox on the summit of the Blue Kidgc aod thers reciprocate the warm grasp of eongratu lation over the glorious fact that the soil that con- tains the ashes of these two great sages and war- riori have been re-united by the sacrament of a second resistance to tyranny." When it.

was remembered -that the clouds were dropping tears upon this eojemn, yet inspiring pageant, which a people, who have sworn to pro tect their rights, equality, honor and constitutional liberty, even amid the hurricane of war, sponta neously effected; and that amid tho continual drip ping of the clouds, and a threatened continuance of it, the streets were alive with eager and moving masses, the ladies and children standing as though unconscious of the inclement weather, this may be truthfully declared to be by far the most imposing moral demonstration ever witnessed in Tennessee. The unanimous resolve ot the people was appa rent in every eye, and in tho alacrity with-which the crowd moved on, unheediag the threatening istornKjIt was a demonstration which brands with falsehood tne calumny, now propagateu mtast icn neesee, that there is a reaction in Nashville and Da vidson county.in favor of the infamous and atrocious usurping Government of Lincoln. It demonstrates that the overwhelming and crushing sentiment of the people keeps time to the doctrines and spirit that prompted our ancestors of 177C to resist the oppressions of their Government, and to seal with their blood the declaration that their children should never submit to a tyrant's yoke. Nashville and Davidson county have spoken in tones of terrible earnestn'ess to our foe, and they will never never see their sons, -who have rushed to the tented field, branded as traitors by bloody and usurping Government, which has wantonly and rJthlessly overturned the Constitution of our fathers.

The free people of tho Southern States remarked Judgo Oldham can not bo traitors, as tho slaves of Lincoln declare, for they owe allegiance to-no sovereign. They are sovereigns themselves, and the Govern-crnment rests upon their consent.

They have the right, secured in their bill of rights to alter or abolish their form of Government, when it becomes destructive of the ends for which it was created, and this right they will ever maintain and never surrender.

Copies of the following proclamation by Major General Sanford, of the New York State Militia, now, ia the service of the United States, have been extensively circulated in Fairfax county to-day; Headquarters Department of lairfax, Arlington House, May 25. Fairfax county being occupied by troops under my command, I deem it proper to repeat publicly, the assurances which I have personally given many good citizens about me. that all its inhabitants may return to remain at their homes and usual pacific occupations, in peace, confidence, and with assured protection to persons and property, as the United States forces in Virginia will be employed for no other purpose than that of suppressing unlawful combinations against the constituted authorities of the Union, and of causing the laws thereof to be duly respected and executed. By order of Major Cuas. W.

C03131UMCAT10KS; From Bedford County: Shelbtville, May 25, 1SG1. A large and enthusiastic meeting of the citizens of Bedford was held at the Court House to-day, over which the Hon. II. L.

Davidson was called to preside. On taking the stand Judge Davidson said that since his election as judge he had conscientiously and prudently abstained from making speeches. But the time had come in the history of our country vhen the opinions of every Southern man should he toiotrn. He aid that his position had been misrepresented, and that ho could not refrain from speaking; that the country was involved in a war that it was a war of sectionsand that he was for the South; that he thought it theduty of every Tcnnessean to stand out for the South, and that he, for one, would always be found there. The meeting was then addressed by Gen.

Washington Barrow, Major Frazier, and A. S. Coljer, Esq-in strains of manly eloquence, replete, patriotic sentiments and reasoning, which were enthusiastically responded to by the applauding audience. At night Hon Williamson Oldham, a delegate to Congress of the Southern Confederacy, made a glorious speech F.T. Euell, of Franklin county, also gave us one of his very best.

The camp fires are burning, and by the election day, our county will be in a blaze of enthusiasm for the sunny South. From almost every locality in the county volun teer companies are being formed, and Bedford county will do her whole duty in defending South- ern rights at home. S. A. B.

From ITIacon County. Lakatette, May 23, 18G1. I am glad to inform you that the people of our county are becoming aroused to their true condition, and are beginieg to see the importance of a united South. Many patriotic citizens who have heretofore held on to the old Union, under the vain hope of reconstruction, are seeing the error of their position, and are coming out in favor of Southern rights and Southern Independence, they are convinced that their forbearance has been misconstrue I by the North, and that they have been made the instruments of a treacherous and deceitful Administration to distract and divide the whilst they received from it tokens of peace and harmony. The peoplo of Ma con county are as chivalous and patriotic as any people in the State of Tennessee, and I have no doubt when they properly understand the question that now agitates the public mind in Tennessee, and the awful destruction that awaits our once quiet country at the hands of the mercenary soldiers of the tyrant and usurper Lincoln, that they will rise above party and party prejudices and unite in one common effort to save their country, and protect their homes and fire-sides from invasion by Northern cut throats and thieves.

On Monday, the 20th i I was at Wood Springs, where 'Col. John W. Head and Baxter Smith. Esq addressed the people of that neighborhood, and I can say to you that I never saw such a revolution produced on the minds of an audience as was on that occasion manifested Many persons who came there Union men. went away saying that the people needed nothing but to be informed as to the doings of the Administration, and all would be united for the South.

Tho same eentlemen addressed the neonle at thU place yesterday, and a more powerful effort I never heard made than was wade by Col. Head. Aftr the speaking was over, a whole soul Union man was heard to say that he had an hundred old bacon hams that he wanted to givo to feed Southern vol unteers. Messrs. W.

In addition to the fifty volunteers who have already left this county in companies fromjUher counties, there are at this time two companies be ing made here, one by K. Carr and another by John M.

mind the words ot iiord Chatham dariog the War of Independence: "When, with one common accord, all classes, of society a nation composed of millions of individuals unite to.give themselves new Government there must necessarily bo some irreat criminal to punish, for th.e Jaws of nature, as, well as those of logic repel the supposition that, a man can taKe up arms against his benefactor." Ifj however, the Opinion is to be taken as authority, the States forming the Southern Confederation, are. to be regarded simply as provinces in insurrection against the Central Government; in ode word, as rebels. But in this manner.of con templating the. events, now occurring, in the United States, there is an error too grave to be allowed to pass without refutation. The Government of tho United States is not and never has been a unitary Government, but is a JFederal Government And, first what is a Confederation? Beschcrelle thus defines it: "A league, an alliance between in dependent States, for the purpose of obtaining redress for their 'wrongs and of defending their rignts The first condition requisite to a State, in formintr part ot a uontcderation is that it shall be independent; that is to sav.

sovereign. Now, did the 'States of North America, by any chanc forfeit their sovereignty, that fundamental basis oi every Confederation, when they formed tneir uonstitution: Lest we should expose ourselves to the same error as that into which Hit Opinion IsalionaLe has lauen, we will let the law itself speak lor us. The articles of Confederation of 17S1 stipulate "Article 1. The style of this Confederacy shall be the United states ot America. "Art.

II. bach State retains its sovereignty. freedom and independenceand every power, juris diction and right, which is not by this Confedera tion expressly delegated to the United States in Congress assembled." The Constitution of 1769 in nowise impaired these rights ol sovereignty. Its preamble declared that "We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect Union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the public welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, so ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." men comes me enumeration ot the powers spe cially delegated by the btates to tho Federal ttov- crnment. When called upon to ratify this Constitution, the States, in order to leave no doubt whatever in exis tence in regard to tho scope of this fundamental law, and with a view of defining in a still more pre cise manner, tne nature oi tne connections and re lations to arise between them and the Federal Gov ernment, by virtue of this compact, declared that the different States of America had not united for the purpose of placing themselves, in principle, in an attitude of' unlimited submission, so far as the Federal Government was concerned, but that, by the compact denominated the Constitution of the United btates-and susceptible of amendment, they estamisned a ueneral Government lor ends express ly determined, to which they delegated certain powers exactly defined, while, at the same time, lormaiiy reserving to each separate state nil other rights of sovereianty not delegated by the Constitu tion; that in every case where the General Govern ment shou assume powers other than those especially delega-ed, its acts should bs null and void that the Federal Government created by this com pact, shonld not be, in any case, the judge of the extent of these powers, but that, as in all confeder ations between sovereign States having no common judge, each State should reserve for iNelf an equal right to judge of infractions of the compact, and to redress the same.

After this solemn declaration', the Constitution was adopted and signed by Washington, Franklin, Madison and many others, who all took an active part in the administration of the country, and nev er dreamed, like? the Opinion Rationale, of convert ing sovereign btates into provinces dependent upon a central power; on the contrary, and as though these States, jealous of their sovereignty, had not found the guaranty of their rights to be expressed explicitly enongh, they presented in ii b'j the amend ment of the celebrated Jefferson, which was ratified in 1791, and is couched in the following words "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Thus lhe Opinion Xaiionale can very readily con vince itself by a rapid survey of the "Constitution. that the latter contains no clause that denies the rights of a State to withdraw from the Union, no clause which gives to the Federal frovernmect the power to force a State to remnn in the Confedera tion against its will, and should it see fit to infer such a right from the aggregate of the arrangements of the Constitution, we shall cite in opposi tion tnereto, the intrepretation ot Washington himself, which in reference to this question i3 worth quite as much, we presume, as that of Tne Opinion Sationale. The Father ot his Country was so far from regarding the Union as indissoluble, or from thinking that the ederal Government possessed the right to retain a State in its embrace that in his Farewell Address, conjured his fellow-citizens never to entertain tne tuougnt ot breaking the Union, no matter what might be their sources of complaint Now, do not this lively solicitude of Washington, and his last entreaty, clearly indicate tha he recognized the absolute right of the States to detach themselves from the Union? The articles of Confederation of 1781, the Constitution of 1787, the amendmgnt of 1789, the opinion of Washington all, in a word, concur to demon strate the flagrant error of Tlie Opinion Rational1 when it persists in assigning he States to the rai.1 of mere provinces. The Constitution is, in reality, only a treaty formed between sovereign powers to designate a common agent under the title of Federal Governnent, for the purpose of directing, for their common interest, certain general details ot administration, and particularly their intercourse with foreign Governments. Let The Opinion Rationale rest assured that this is the whole secret of the powerlessness that jara lyzes the Cabinet at Washington.

The North well knows that there is something stronger than its desire for dominion over the South it comprehends, despite its fanaticism, that the Constitution refuses it the means of reducing to subiu ration the seceding States; it knows too that The Rationale seems to ignore, that it cannot place a daring hand upon the Southern Confedera tion without abdicating its own rightu of sovereign ty; it knows that it cannot compel the boutu to re enter the Union without proceeding by means of war and conquest, and that in entering upon that even admitting its success, (something more than doubtful, if we were to judge by the surren der ot ort bumter,) it would hazard its own ex istence. The Opinon Nationale calls the oouthern Stites "rebels." because they refuse to sanction the usur pation of powers which they never delegated to the Federal Government; it terms them revolutionists because they are opnosed to havme the constitu tional fabric turned into an unbridled tyranny, and to descending trom the rank ot sovereign States in to tne passive condition ot dependent provinces. It stigmatizes as conspirators and traitors those patriots who have not shrunk from breaking the Union which they venerated, rather than to subject their country to the domination of a fratricidal hos tility of the North so be it; but, then, the South glorifies herself with a treason like that which fired the heart of Hampden like that which flowed in words of living flame from the lips of Patrick Henry like thit which placed upon the brows of Washington a circlet of undying renown. In spite jf all, then, that Opinion Rationale may be, Jenerson Toombs, Walker, Elliott, Reagan. Benjamin and Mallory will never be ranked in among the scut tious; their patriotism, their integrity, their unde niable talent, their tried courage, their entire re cord in the past will, on the contrary, place them in the first rank of those who have cherished but one thought the greatness and independence of their country.

Diabolical Scliorao Poison the Itlissourl VoluniceraThc Wrctcn Detected. From the Jefferson City (Me.) Examiner. On Sunday last, (the 19th a negro woman residing in the vicinity oi tne oakery, at winch the bread tor the volunteers at Jefferson City is baked, informed some of our citizens that a certain white man livins here had made proposals to her to pois on tho troop by placing arsenic in tho fbur of which the bread is baked, statin? to her as an in ducemcnt that Frank Blair would then come here and set all the negroes free. A plan was at once set to catch the gentleman, with such dvidence as would convict mm. I lie woman was told to make an appointment to meet him again that night, which she did, and when the hour arrived, a number of our most respectable citizens were so placed around the house, as to overbear what was said within The man conversed freely with the woman, stating his whole plan and object.

A trflUA UI' S.l ay with it. hen she demurred to the riiot as too dangerous he argued with her to how how easy it could be done without detection, her vicinity and access to the bakery giving her ample oppor tunity of putting poison into the flour without being known. Having heard sufficient evidence to in sure nis conviction, tlie house was entered, and ibe et-ounarei secured. lie proved to be a man named Amos Cope, who has been in this city for some IUUUUI9.

But fortunately better counsels prevailed, and the law will be allowed to take its course. The man is now in jaU and strongly gaarded.

There can be no doubt ot his conviction, as the evidence against him is positive and overwlielming. AfeDllHatf. to Kentucky Tmierlzinr. Froo tier York Even In Post.

Iron the Tork Tribune Gov Magoffin. It was not necessary for Gov; Ky to issue a proclamation to rove himself -a secessionist at nearc xec ne nasseen lit to do so He is by no means a bold traitor, either; instead of takinc upon himself the responsibility of the steD he proposes, he pretends that "many good citizens" have requested him to forbid the passage of Federal troLps through tho State of Kentucky, or the occupation by the United States of any part or place therein. But this subterfuge deceives no one; the "good citizens" are like the Mrs. Harris of Sairey Gamp, or like the "friend in the city," who always furnishes the money which Moses or Solo-lomon lends. The Kentucky Governor is ashamed of his own woik, and weakly tries to thrust it upon some one else.

As might be expected, the position taken by this official i3 as untenable as the road by which he reaches it is tortuous. With an impudence quite stupendous, he warns the United States that he he Gov. Magoffin "solemnly forbids any movement upon Kentucky soil, or occupation of any post or place therein, for any purposes whatever." He then warns still -with his farcial solemnity all the citizens of the unfortunate State which calls him Governor, not to take arms against the Southern rebels, but to organize themselves into an efficient home guard, for tha'purpoae of opposing, the Federal Government if it attempts to exercise its rights to put down treason. He makes a shallow pretence of cloaking this distinct position, but his proclamation has no other meanii.g. "The peaceful attitude of Kentucky with reference to the deplorable war now raging between the United and Confederate States!" This is dne of Gov.

Magoffin's most luminous sentences. One -would think that Kentucky was a calm, somewhat bored spectator ot a drama, to see which she had merely taken a private box, but in which she bai no special interest after the fall of the curtain upon the first or second act It is not possible that even "Gov. Magoffin can be so deplorably deficient Th the article of brain as to imagine that any one of these United States can be a neutral party in the present struggle. Who is not for us is against us an axiom too plain to require stating till this inconceivable, proclamation made its appearance. There is no such thing as neutrality possible.

If this manifesto has' any meaning whatever a matter not yet beyond a question it says that the presence of United States troops upon the soil of Kentucky will be resisted. What, then, becomes of the neutrality, the "peaceful attitude" of that State? The Governor who made the singular official paper here alluded to has taken an oath of allegiance to the Constitution of the United States. He may not have understood the meanicg of that oath. Indeed, when this latest evidence of his mental capacity ia taken ints the account, it seems quite improbable that he aould have, comprehended the significance of what he swore to do. Yet he must have some friend who can tell him that he is now breaking his oath, and putting himself in the position of a rank traitor.

If this is stated to hinnvith great simplicity and distinctness he may grasp it If is a matter of very little consequence whaj.Gov. Madoffln, of Kentucky, says, or what sort of proclamations he makes. The loyal people in these lays have very little regard for treasonable or imbecile officials, even though they be Governors. The loyal people of K'ntucky have declared, with a voice still vibrating through the land, that they will sustain the Federal Government as far as possible, with heart, hand and purse. They have arm themselves; they-called to their head the hero "who carried Sumter through its dreary suspense and brilliant fight; their future acts will be worthy of themselves, of the State to which they belong, of the man under whom they wish to serve, of the ilag they will nobly defend and sustain.

A proclamation like this of their unworthy Governer will be for them of less moment than the cracklinir of thorns under a pot. Disaffection Aiuonc tne Federal Troops Yankee Jobbing- and Swindling.

Schwarzwaelder's Fifth New York Regi-txent, (German,) who are stationed at the Capitol ia tvasningion. iney state tnat they were called ojoain New York by their commander, and urged to volunteer for thirty days, for the defence of the Capital, being assured of good pay and a 6onuj of S20 each, and that their families should be ell provided for in their absence.

Arriving at Annapolis they were stationed as a guard on the road Washington, where for ten days they subsisted almost entirely on crackers, and since their arrival in Washington they have suffered much from the short allowance and bad quality for their pro visions. The whole regiment, to a creat extent, are bordering on a state of munity and are only held in check by the threats of punishment on the part of tne otneers. The thirty days for which they enlist ed expired yesterday and oa Saturday they were paraded to be sworn in for three months or more. as the Government might need their services, when one hundred and titty refused to take the oath. These were set upon by the others.

by order of the officers, and stripped of their uniforms, which were their private property. and very roughly treated. To save themselves from outrage, all except twenty-five, among whom were many officers, consented to take the oath Those who refused were violently driven from the camp, almost naked not a cent paid them for their services, and hiving spent all the money they had in staving on starvation, tney were compelled to beg bread and cluthing, and started on foot for this city, on their way home, and they promise that no more ot tneir tierman tnenda" shall, like them, be enlisted in support of Lincoln through such deception. One of those who called upon us appeared to be quite an intelligent, respectable m.in, a physi cian, and assured us that treat dissatisfaction csists among all the troops in Washington, and that it requires the greatest watchfulness to prevent their desertion in large bodies, while an order for them to leave Washington to march South, would preoa- oiy ieaa to an open mutiny. A Washington' correspondent of the Harrisburg (Pa.) Patriot of a late date makes the following statements There are a great many Pennsylvania trooDS in the city.

They are known as "The raeced army of Pennsylvania." It is a disgrace to our great State that her volunteers are so poorly equipped. There is something wrong at headquarters. The Legislature appropriated 8500,000 the provisions furnished at the State camps have not cost one-fifth of that amount The transportation of the troops to this city has cost nothing, their expenses being paid by the National Government. Pennsylvania has not bought one dollar's worth of arms, and certainly not fifty thousand dollars worth of uuiforms; yet the au- thorities at'Harrisburg say that the whole appropriation has been exhausted. Pennsvlvanians here have no doubt but that it has altbeen spent, but not in making the troops comfortable.

Not the one-hnudredth part of the PemuylvaniAns in Washington will re-enlist after the expiration of the three months' term. Many of the men are ashamed to show themselves in their rags. They do not expect to be clothed unless the National Government will uniform them. The Philadelphia Inquirer has the following paragraph sonfirmatory of the above For a week or two past, complaints of all sorts of abuses in furnishing supplies to the troops of the State have been frequent and emphatic. Some such things were to be expected, and in general, allegations of the kind referred to have been passed over with but brief comment.

Within a few days, however, the subject has assumed an aspect to command more serious attntion. The whole atmosphere is now vocal with charges of favoriteism, jobbing, abuses and corruption. What has heretofore been vague rumor is reduced to demonstrated fact, at least, so far as abuses of a' sacred trust are concerned. There is not. the slightest room for doubt that the State has been defrauded and the poor soldiers grossly plundered; and in the public indignation which justly attaches to these agents and participators in such scandalous wrongs we hear persons freely censured, from the lowest subordinate to those highest in authority from the middle-men who figure so strongly in this business, clear up to me governor ot tne state nimseu.

A dispatch from Philadelphia, dated the 23d, says Recent exposures made by the independent portion of thetyress of this city icgarding the evident peculations perpetrated in furaishing the army supplies of this State by- the contractors and those in power, have led to an investigation by the United States Grand Jury. Two blanket were taken before them to-day one a flimsy article weighing one pound and six ounces, the same as has been generally supplied to the Pennsylvania troops at a cost ot bU; the other was a Massachusetts troop blanket thick, warm and closely woven, weighing seven pounds'. So shameful has been the treatment of many of three months volunteers that most of them will 'certainl return home as soon as their terms expire, unless the State authorities sjiow a better disposition to protect them from speculators, and fears are entertained of their demoralization This stateof atf airs is most deplorable, especially from the fact that Pennsylvania has been most liberal in her war appropriations. It appears trom the Dills presented tnas cassioeite pants supplied to the volunteers, many of which wear out in two days or a week, cost the Stato and blouses made of shoddy, with pants, SIO. As the subject has now been agitated, and the public feeling enlisted, there are prospects of a speedy reform.

The New ork Day Book says: The National Zouaves, under command of CoL Hcuhesney, of Illinois, who have been for some ti ne quartered at Sandy Hook, have had anything bat pleasant military experiences so far. The condition of the members has been wretched in the extreme, without tents, with a scarcity of food, that tainted, Ac. Several of the companies havo been in a state of mutiny, and a number of the men have deserted bv tho way of Shrewsbury. On their arrival at Sandy Hook they were kept without food for forty-eight hours, and then received a ration consisting of coarse pilot bread and musty cheese the provisions having beea furnished in NeTr-York.

The surgeon was unprovided with any consequently ho was unable to administer relief to the members who were suffering. The New York Tribune sayg It has been reported that several of the regiments' which have been mustered intojiervice in thte city, and which, under the auspices of the Union Defense Committee, have been drawing rations, aro really not'full, but have been made to annkr on hv fi. tious muster rolls, and by making the same men do duty oyer and over again, when "mustered in by i r- -'I M4A -vie nuu believed to have been lent from one regiment to another for this purpose. Thus, it is said that bodies consisting of only 300 or 400 men, have been drawing" daily rations for 800, to the great loss of the treasury and the profit of somebody.

The following is tho proclamation of Queen Vio-roniA, brought by the steamer Etna it Whereas, We are happily at peace with all sovi riim p.iwera and States; and Whereas, hostilities have unhappily commenced between tho Government of the United States and similar States, styling themselves the Confederate States of America and WHEeeas, we being at peacowith the Govern- mentnf the United States, have declareed our roy al determmation to maintain a strict and impartial neutrality in ine contest oetween said contesting parties. We therefore have thought fit, by and with the advice of our Privy Council, to issue our Boyal Proclamation, and we hereby warn all our loving subjects and all -persons whatever. entitled to our protection, that it any of them shall presume, in contempt of this Proclamation, and of cur high displeasure, to do any act in derogation of their duty as subjects of a Sovereign in said contest or in violation, orin contravention of the law of nations, and more especially by entering the military service of either contending parties, as commissioned of non-commissioned officers, or soldiers, or by serving as officers, sailors, or marines, on board any ship or vessel of war, or transport of or in the service of either contending parties, or by engaging to or going to any place beyond the seas, with an intent to enlist or engage in any such service, or by procuring or attempting to procure within Her Majesty's dominions, at home or aboard, or aiding others to do so, or by fitting out any ship or vessel to be employed as a ship of war, or a privateer, or transport, by either contending parties, or by breaking or endeavoring to break any blockade lawfully and actually established by or on behalf of either of the said contending parties, or by carrying officers, soldiers, dispatches, arms, military stores or any article considered and deemed to bo contraband of War, according to law or modern usage of nations for the use of either of said parties so offending will incur and be liable to the several penalties and penal consequences of said States, as by law of nations in that behalf imposed. And wo do hereby declare that all our subjects and persons entitled to our protection who may misconduct themselves in the premises will doso at their peril and of their own wrong, and they will in no wise obtain any protection from us againstany liabilities or penal consequences, but will-on the contrary incur our displeasure by such misconduct Given at Richmond Park', May 13tb. Unlform'of tho Coafcdcrate states Army We learn, from good authority, that the War Department of the Confederate States has recently adopted the following uniform for our Army: The coat is to be a short tunic of cadet gray cloth, doublebreasted, with two rows of buttons down the breast, two inches apart at tho waist, and widening toward the shoulders.

The pantaloons are to bt made of sky-blue cloth, full Jin the legs. The buttons to be of plain gilt, convex form, three quarters of an inch in diameter. The different arms of the service are to be distinguished by the'iji color of the trimmings blue for infantrv. red for artillery, and yellow for cavalry. In the artillery service the buttons are to be stamped with a letter but in infantry and cavalry the buttons will bear only the number of the regiment For the General and the officers of his staff the dress will be of dark blue cloth, trimmed with gold; for the medical department, black cloth, with gold and velvet trimming.

All badges of distinction are to be marked upon the sleeves and collars. Badges of distinguished rank on the collar only. For a Brigadier-General, three large stars; for a Colonel, two large stars; for a Lieutenant-Colonel, one large star; for a Major, one small star, and horizontal bar; for a Captain, three small stars; for a first Lieutenant, two small stars; for a second Lieutenant, one small star. For a General and staff officers the buttons will be of bright gilt, convex, and rounded at the edge a raised eagle at the centre, surrounded by thirteen stars. Exterior diameter of large sized button, one inch of small size, one-half inch.

For officers of' the corps of engineers the same button is to be used, except that in the place of the eagle and stars, there will be a raised of German text For officers of artillery, infantry, riflemen and cavalry, the buttons will be in plain gilt convex, with a large raised letter in the centre A for artillery, I for infantry, iltc. The exterior diameter of large sized buttons, seven-eighths of an inch small size, one-halt inch. We have not yet learned the kind of hat or cap adopted, but hope it will be the light, convenient and serviceable kepi of the French army, that has been almost universally adopted by the volunteer organization, and which is quite distinctive from the felt hat, turned up on. one side, as worn by the United States regulars. The uniform adopted by our Government, though not strikingly superior and ad mirable, is a very neat and serviceable one.

Atlanta CommnxceaUh. In Waahinffton. Special Dispatch te the Cincinnati Comnerclal. Washington-, May 27. I reiterate on the highest authority my former assertion, that no further advance into Virginia will be made by the army of invasion at present.

Gen. Scott received authentic advices to-day. indicating the intention of the rebels to observe a strict defensive position. Five thousand insurgents have been hurriedly gathered at Manassas Gap Junction, twenty-seven miles west of Alexandria, and are now erecting fortifications, their belief being that Federal forces will advance to that point to cut off the rcbeb at Harper's Ferry. Military authorities here generally express the opinion that a battle is not likely to be fought for some time on the other side of the river.

There arc now 1C regiments on the other, and 12. exclusive of regulars and district volunteers, on this side of the Potomac. From personal observation to-day, I can say that all on the Virginia side are "now comfortably fixed in camps. SsfSshg earth'works are going up at the Virginia entf of Long Bridge, and another directly opposite Georgetown will control all access to Washington. Three thousand men are constantly handling pick Biiu auuveis.

Several Fire Zoua res have been shot by Federal sentinels for failing to give countersign. Members of.the same corps have been committing excesses in Alexandria. A large delegation is hero, from Illinis to urge the concentration of a large" army at Cairo, and operations down the Mississippi. A Sco tcli View of the American Crisis. Prom the Glasgow Herald, Msy 10.

The distinguished wisdom and success that have marked every act of the Southern Confederacy, and the amazing stupidity and selfishness that 'have characterized the conduct of the Northern, are but exemplifications of the comparative statesmanship oi tne two sections. From the beginningof the Governnv'nt the South has supplied the Union with its principles and statesmen, while the North has occupied itself with schemes of making money out of the Government, by means ef protective tariffs, fish bounties, war pensions, and land gr-nts. The Articles of Association of 1774, were the result of Southern exertion and appeal; the Declaration of Independence of 1776 was the composition of a Southern patriot, and the Constitution of 1787 was chiefly the handiwork of Southern statesmen. From theorganiza-tion of the Federal Government, down t5the present time, all that has tended to the glory and of the Union has been the fruit ot Southern minds; all that has conduced to the emolument of classes, to the aggrandizement of the few, and to the injury of the many, has been the products of Northern contrivance, ingenuity and selfishness, The great glory of the South, in her whole connection with the Federal Government, has been the disinterestedness and unselfishness that have characterized her entire conduct; whereas selfishness, greed and avarice have been stamped on every measure of Northern policy, and are written on every page of Northern history. But the crowning act of unblushing selSshneti which digraces this meanly and wretchedly sectional concern is the Morrill Tariff Bill, by which the vast financial system of tho Government has been made tributary to the petty interests of a few persons and localities of the North.

A Senator or some relative carried on a large manufactory of wood screws, or such like, the only one in the Union; and, to minister to the wants of avarice of this single individual, a prohibitory duty was imposed by this Act upon the foreign screw, or such other articles, requiring every consumer to pay an extravagant price, or at least 30 per cent more than he shonld do This narrow spirit of selfishness turns through every section of this odious bill. Than this Morrill Tariff Bill the course of folly could go no further or selfish, mean avarice, or vulgar greed. The spirit of Southern statesmen, on the other hand, is admirably exemplified in the amendments it has in grafted upon tne old Constitution. The greatest good for the' greatest many the success of the common cause the interests of the many before those of the few these are the ideas of the new instrument. A tone of lofty un-elfishness runs through every line of the amendments, which, abre-viatei.

are as follows: 1. The absolute probibitiou of all bounties from the Federal Treasury, and all duties or taxes on imported goods intended to promote or foster any orancn oi nome industry. C. A positive prohibition of Federal ar.rronriations fnv inrprnal imnrnvpncnt. he 1 local tonnage duties for such improvements.

3. The restriction of Congress by araajorIty vote to such appropriations aa may be recommended by the rresident or some Executive Department, all oiner appropriations requiring a two tniras vote. 4. The holding of contractors to the strict letter of their contracts. 5.
