The Jn‘elligencer comments with severity upon “the social and political prejudices which enures in the non-slaveholding States’ to the degrada- tion and oppression of the free blacks; and asks the question whether “‘the laws of bumanity are so far medifed; because the people govern in Obio, and do not govern hers, therefore free ne- grees in one place, should be held in perpetual degradation; while their right totbe “highest pos- eibie development,” is secured, in “the other?” From the report of an Obio Legislative Commit- tee, itappears that the negroes of that State are ‘ Iszy, ignorant and vicious,” and the Inteliigen- cer hopes ‘‘some philanthropist may arise with views comprehensive enough to embrace the hard lot of the negroes, tn the free, as well as slave States." The Kepubdlican notices a petition in circula- tion, signed by the colored people of th's District, asking Congrets to acquire territory in Central America for their colonization, end comments upon it. +0 OUR MILITARY BUDGET. eae THAT DISPATCH. The alleged dispatch from Beauregard to Jeff. Davis, urging the former’s immediate reinforce- ment, is believed here to be genuine, and to bave Tepresented the true condition of B.’s army at Corinth for some days after ghe battle at Shiloh. It is Known here that immediately after its date Telnforcements were hurried to him from all con- venient points in the rebel States; many of whom resched him before Gen. Mitchell succeeded in getting poseession cf more than 100 miles of the principal railroad rovte over which they were (principally) beirg transported to hi Gen. Mitehell’s movement and success, how- ever, bas greatly interfered with Beauregaid’s prospects, throwing the work of reinforcing him, doubtless, Into interminable confusion and em- bareassment. His camp may atfll be reached from Richmond, the Carolinas and Georgia by rail, but enly via Mobile or connecting roads in Southern Alsvama. We doubt not, the princ!pa! portion of the reloforcements going to bim since Mitck- cil's movementen Huntsville bave been trans- ported by that route, as the rebels lack transpor- tation other than by rail even worse in that section than In Virginia, and therefore are not able to rend any considerable force around the gap of rail communication, 110 miles long. Going around on the j.] equipped and circuitous rou'e, via Bouth Alabama, they must be reaching Beau- regard much too slowly for his purposes. SELF PROPELLING ERcsEcTILES. The subject of self propelling prejectiles—oy Trojectiles which carry thelr own propelling power, like rockets—bas occupied the inventive genius of all ccuntries for years, and so far with- cut suceess Many plans have been submitted, and many different inventions tested, during the war; but none, as yet, have given any hepe of success. There have been many supposed im- provements on the Congreve rocket; but, imper- fect and Inefficient as that missile is, notbing ia that line bas been miede to excel, or even ap- presch it. A trial, lest Monday, om Capitol Hill, of a new rocket—for which great perfection and destruc- tiveness bas been claimed—ts no exception to the rule, 28 it only demonstrated their entire fallure— the furthest point which could be ree¢hed being only three fourths of a mile, with the greatest in- accuracy, and witheut force enough to bury the Projectile im the earth The principle seems to be established, that a projectlie carrying within itself its own means cf propulsion cannot be re- Ned upon for any degre of accuracy, as great ¢c- centricity of movement alwzys accompanies their filght. Cannot the ingenuity of the country over- come the dificulty? Ifa projectile can be made which will do balf theexecution which is claimed for some of the candidates for public (or Treas “ry >) fovors, and an accuracy which shall attain that«f arified gun,a revolution in land service would follow its introduction, like tbat which has followed the intreduction of iron rams and batteries in the sea service. NAVY YARD—FROM THE RAPPAHANNOCK. The Reliance arrived from the Rappahannock yesterday afternoon and left last night. The King Phillip came up atan early hour this morn- log. The Yankes had been up the river to Freder- icksburg, where Gen. McDowell’s division now 1s, and the inhabitants seem favorably disposed. She reports that rebel pickets are occasionally seen on the south bank of tte river, and that there is no obstructions in the river excepting at about seven miles from Faedericksburg, where they _ have laid a “stone blockade,” by sinking a num- ber of old schooners, through which, however, vessels can make their way with safety by pro- ceeding carefally. The vessels of the flotilla have thus far captured some seven or eight schooners, one of them icaded with an sssorted cargo, con- sisting of dry goods, medicines, saltpetre, &c. ‘They have also taken two small steamers. re Financia. —New York papers of yesterday re- Port the steck market firm, and with better tone than the day before, but without much activity.

ARRIVAL FROM EUROPE. The Steamship Bohemian at Portland. New Youn, April 23—The steamship Bobe- mien, fro! ondonderry on the Lith, arrived at Portland at® 20 this morning. Paris, il.—It is rumored that the relations be- tween England, France and Spain, in relation to Mexico, are unsatisfactory. Spain maintains Prim’s conventioa. It is reported that France wishes to march against Mexico. It is aeserted that England hes succeeded in bringing Spain to her side on the Mexican question, by a promise not to object should Spain take Hayt!. Bank returns show increase casb, four and a ‘beif millions; bank notes, one and a quarter mil- lion decrease; bills discounted not due, seventy- four millions; Treasuty balance, forty-five and a half millions; current accounts, forty-six and a half millions; advance, eleven and a half mil- Hons. The Liverpool correspondent of the London Times thinks the Monttor could be easily carried by boarding. The Times? city article quotes English funds strong at an advance. An eighth further advance took place in several leading railway stocks. ‘The Times quotes U. 8. 5's at 77278. Nothing further of importance. THE WAR IN MISSOURI. Hovstox, Texas county, Mo., April 19—We have been amused at the reports concerning the whereabouts of Price and Van Dorn. One day they are reported at Pittsburg. Tennessee, and the next at Pittman’s Ferry, on Black river; while “w> know positively that they are at neither place. Last Monday, Price and Van Dern’s commands were at Des Arc, 90 miles below J :c! rt, on White river. So far fromthe Rebels being at Pittman’s Ferry, they have actually reached Po- cahontar. The town is now deserted, even the merchants having removed their goods. Jack- sonport isalso nearly deserted, the Rebels hav- ing been removed to ‘Are, where they seem to be concentrating a large force. Price is reported to have gone to Corinth. ‘Alber! Pike, with twenty-five hundred Indians and six hundred Texan Rangers, were left on the border to harrass Curtiss and engage the Kansas troops if possible, while upon our south Coleman is in close pr ximity, and Edgar Ashbury is also trying to raise a regiment for guerrilla warfare on the border. Col. Schnabel is in Yellville, Ark., with one hundred and fifty men. McBride has gone to headquarters to raise an independent command to operate in Nortbern Arkansas and Southern Mis- sour. Col. McFarland, with his command, has gone to Des Arc Lieut. Col. Wood, the Commandant at this it, has been absent nearly a week. He returned ise Cntgrey and already we are under marching orders; so lcokout for something in this district soon. From Memphis St. Lovrt, April 22.—Froma gentlemin who left Memphis a few days after the battle of Pitts- burg we learn that the Rebels, putting both days of the battle together, still claim a victory. Thetr claim rests on the supposition that more were killed, wounded and taken prisoners on the Union side than thetrs. Our informant says Gen. Prentiss made a speech to his troops jn Memphis, in which be endeavored to molify their complaints in relation to their treatment, the food they receive, &c. He told them they would soon be exchanged, and rallied them gene- rally to keep upg spirits. Prentiss was in excellent temper. He owned to defeat on Sun- day, but said the Rebe's were badly whi on Monday. The prisoners were being sent iH Ric: mond. ur informant was in Huntsville, Ala- bama, when Gen. Mitchell reached there with hisdivision. Ibe securing of that place wasa complete surprise, and the occupation of the railroad between Decatur and Stevenson was re- garded the hardest blow the Rebels had yet re- ceived. The Rebels were prepering to make a desperate stand at Corinth, and frcsb troops were constantly arriving.at Memphis, When be left, business at Memphis was zlmost entirely stag- nated, and the people generally seem to believe that they are on theeve of events which will cer- tainly decide the war. SSA, See EXCERPTS FROM DIXIE. From late Southern papers now before us, we perceive that they with creat unanimity admit that 1f defeated in the approaching engagements on the Yorktown ( Ve.) Peninsula and near Cor- inth, Tenn , nothing will be left to them but an attempt to resort to guerilla warfare, which they Profess to be ready to prosecute ‘until the last Southern arm is peralized.”’ That's sheer nonsense. Defeat in those two bat- tles will be followed by very general acknowl- edgment of allegiance to the United States by communities, the establishment of Union pro- visional governments, State, county and town, and by active warfare on the part of the people of the Seuth against rebel guerilla perties, who if permitted to continue their operations will in- filct ten times as much injury upon the people of the South, as on the troops cf the United States. It is utterly impossible that a guerilla wor of three months duration can be carried on in any State cleared of rebel armies proper. The Staunton Specta:cr says that Fremont’s advance was a few days ago ata point ten miles east of Monterey, Highland county, Va. Thus it fs within 25 or 30 miles of the main body of Gen. Shields’ fofee. Ths reader will Perceive from this fact that the fine armies of Banks and Fremont have now almost come together; and within easy striking distance of the most impor- tant strategic point in Virginia after Richmond —at the point commanding Richmond’s main connection by rail with Tennessee and the West, with the valley, and also with the trans-Allegany portion of the State yet professing identity with the rebel cause. Dick Copeland, whilom a well-known Wash- ington faro dealer, bas been brought up with a round turn, in Richmond, for “opening the game”? there. * The military authorities of Richmond, Norfolk, and Petersburg have issued wkases ordering all makers of individual small notes at once to re- deem them in Confederate currency, or its equiv. alent; and have also forbidden any huckstering in provisions. The latter has been done under the plea that the hucksters are robbing the people right and left; charging $2 per pair for chickens, for instance. The truth Is, the robbers are rather the Confederate Government, who issue money so depreciated that $2 are required to buy a pair of chickens worth never before more than 50 cents in Ricbmond. i The following prisoners have recently arrived at Richmond, viz: J. B. Fullerton, Co K, 26th Penpsylvania regiment; Charles W. Foster, Co. D, dist New York; Warner Gutberg, Co. E, 58th New York; John Arncid, Co. E, ith New York; Frederick Charfold, Co. K, samc regiment; Jas. Webb, of Amosville, Fauquier county, and F. X. Schwebel of Warrenton, disioys! citizens, all captured in Fauquier; also, Wm. M. Martin ani Wm. Kennedy, of Co. K, 13th Pennsylvania, cap tured near Warwick Court House. The Wilmington (N. C.) Journal contains letter which says : “Lam inform you of the entire safety of the rifies muni recently into tiready posted through this place, Sad within wee a Ls hext week the balahoe will be several handed miles out of the enemy’s reach.”’ The Rebel Congress have passed an act author- izing their government to take possession and en- tire control of all the southern railroads, under a plea of military necessity. It was vehemently opposed by James Lyons, of Richmond, and others, and appears very obnexious to the Rich- mond pzpers, The advertisements in the Southern papers con- tinue to refer almost entirely to military affairs— for substitutes, (at from $1,000 to $1,500 erch,) for recruits, of deserters, for teamsters and army me- A letter from Wilmington, N.
