extremes of generosity, Buckner, in fact, has learned the painful lesson that “the days of Southern chivalry are gone.” We suspect that had he not been hemmed in so tightly he would have practised the chivalry of Floyd, in steal- ing off under cover of the night. Chivalry is a good thing in its way; but it must not stand in the way of'~ur Union soldiers if it expects to be handled with’kid gloves and sprinkled with lavender. General Buckner’s greatest feat of chivalry was his profession of loyalty to Ken- tucky, while plotting to arm his secession asso- ciates at her expense to drag her out of the Union. The chivalry of Buckner was, there- fore, very properly treated by General Grant. The chivalry of the rebels, from the bombard- ment of Fort Sumter all the way through, has been very much like that of Buckner—the height of pomposity and impudence. The Late Arrests and the President's Amnesty. One day about a week ago several arrests were made by the War Department; among them was that of General Stone for high treason. That was tragedy. There was another arrest— that of Mr. Ives, whose only crime’ was a little infirmity to whiclhe is occasionally subject. ‘This was comedy. There was a third arrest by Beau Hickman’s Smelling Committee--that of “the Chevalier Wikoff—in order to get posses- sion of thefamily secrets of the White Honse, and, at the same time, the secrets of the Hxrap effice. That turned out broad farce. The ha! ha! ha! in Washington not only sug- gested to the President the absurdity of the business (for Mr. Lincoln has a very keen per- ception of the ludicrous), but led him to re- view the whole matter of political arrests. The result was the amnesty, and the taking into his own hands all such matters for the future. Neither the Secretary of State nor the Secretary of War cun make arbitrary arrests hereafter in the loyal States. The constitution and the law are to be the rule, and only military necessity the exception. But as no necessity of that kind now exists in any of the Northern States, such arrests may be regarded as at anend. The gradual caving in of the rebellion has removed the grounds for the issue of lettres de cachet, and the President, who is a man of a genial nature, of strong common sense, and an equally strong sense of justice, put a stop to these proceedings when he found they were no longer necessary. The arrests were necessary at the beginning, and had some of the leading abolitionists been included among the prisoners the effect would have been still better. The Tribune comes out with a denunciation of the course of the Secretary of State, and ridi- cules the idea of any necessity for the suspen- sion of the habeas corpus at the North. The Tribune blows hot and blows cold. When the arrests were first made the Tribune warmly ap- Plauded-them. But it soon found that public opinion was making rapid strides towards the conclusion that evenhanded justice and the asfety of the republic equally required the ar- reat of Greeley and the other leaders of the radical disunionists, notorious for their hostility to the constitution, and the laws made in pursu- ance thereof, and conspicuous since the war began for their covert or open opposition to the government itself, just because the Presi- ] dent was determined to fulfil the oath he had , taken at his inauguration :—“I do solemnly , Swear that I will faithfully execute the office of } President of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the United States.”’ Because the President would not perjure himself, and because his Cabinet would not consent to violate their oaths to “support the constitution,” the radi- cals, whose organs have constantly pronounced the constitution “a covenant with death,” and the Union of which it is the bond and instru- ment “an agreement with Hell,” have waged a vindictive war against the President, his ad- ministration and the generals of the army. The people were becoming incensed, and the time ] ‘was approaching when public opinion would have loudly demanded the incarceration of the abolition traitors in the same cells with the se. cessionists who sympathized with the Southern rebels. Hence a load is now taken off Massa Greeley’s heart, and he can afford to abuse the administration for the arrests. The success of the war and the rapid waning of the rebellion render Greeley and his fellow conspirators harmless, and therefore they calculate upon impunity for their ribaldry against the govern" ment. They will escape for the present. But their day is yet tocome. When the rebellion is squelched, then is the turn of the originators of the disaffection to the Union, the constitution and the laws. Reveat or Bex. Woon’s Dan.x News.—The recent Union victories have caused a great rattling and stirring among the dry bones, and among other resurrections we hear that Ben. Wood's Daily News is coming to life again. We suppose this idea occurred to the author of “Fort Lafayette” since the President’s procla- mation releasing political prisoners. He thinks that there isno chance of his being clapped into a jail or a fort now, whatever he may write. But let him beware, and be conserva- tive. We have a Secretary Stanton and a Fort McHenry. All opposition to the government, either from secessionists or abolitionists, how- ever, is now useless and practically ended. Therefore Ben. Wood’s paper will injure no- body but himself, and nothing but his own pri- vate treasury. Corascrion.—Upon inquiry we are satisfied that our Koy Wont correspondent, in his letter published in our isaue of the 23d of January, has done injustice to the firm of ‘Tylor, Stone & Co., of Philadelphia, and has probably ‘Deen imposed upon by some person in a rival interest. ‘Tyler, Stone & Co. are a house of too much reapecta- bility and integrity to be implicated in acta of the charac. ter of those imputed to them by our correspondent. ‘The chargo of shipping coal by short weight is sate. factorily refuted by the fact that their coal is delivered and weighed at Philadelphia, under the inspection of the government agent, and any discrepancies in weight at Koy West may well be chargeable to irregularities there, As to the other matters mentioned by our correspondent, our inquiries lead us to believe that there is not the slightest foundation for complaint against Tyler, Stone & Co.; they have no interest in the freights or charters of the vessels carrying coal, other than is justified by mer- eantile usage, and whatever thay may have done in the way of cashing freight bills for the masters, or procuring their charters, has been at the instance of the masters and for their accommodation, and at a large saving to ' bem from the losses which they would otherwise have suffered.

Tho d was occu- pied in its labors on the 12th, 13th and 14th of February, 1862, both at Newport News and Fortress Monroe. After the most minute inspection and investigation, the Board reports as follows:— 1, That the cartridge uscd when the gun burst was received from the Ordnance Department at Fortress Mouroe, ready prepared for the service of the Sawyer gun, and it was supposed to contain the usual charge of five and cne-half (855) Pounds, as it was so invoiced; but upon weighing several of those received here, the Board find that the cartridges contained six {2 pounds. This charge, in the opinion of the Board and of the ordnance officer at Fortress Monroe, who has experimented with the gun, should not have caused any unusual strain. 2. The projectile was an elongated percussion shell, the inventicn of Mr, Sawyer, and was constructed for the use of the gun. It is flanged and is coated with an alloy, chietly of lead; when unfilled, in which condition it was the time of the bursting of the gun, its weight is forty-three pounds. The are of opinion that all projectties are more unsafe and uncertain in their use than those with oxpunding bases, for the reason that the former are liable to become wedged and cause an overstraining, if not the bursting of the ~ 8. The utmost caution was observed in the loading of the piece, and all the details that are necessary to its Proper management werecarefully executed. 4, The appearance Of the fracture indicates that the metal of the gum was of good quality, but that the gun was not strong ewough for the service to which it was liable and likely to be subjected. 5. The gun was fired at an angle of twenty-nine de- grees, which was not its extreme elevation. 6. The Board are of opinion, from all the circum- ‘stances incident to the explosion, and the previous history of the Sanyer gun, that it cannot be considered safe. iy i to Board are of the opinion that the bursting of the gun ‘was in consequence of the weakness’ of the re-enforce, tenths a cast iron Peaeapact rope bain fired 8 wy flanged projectiles, should be more strongly constructed. Im conctusion, the Board states that this gun bore no marks whatever, either of number, inspector woight, , &c., &., and cannot but express their sur- prise that it was placed in position for actual service fring with: such an important omission; and, in the opinion of the Board, the life of the cannoneer should not be placed rage | by rifed cannon whi have not marked in evidence of that fact. the ties ieee es baw ga gee hag any one concerned in the manugement and fring un.

Bowman commences to show signs of increased consciousness, and, being of a strong constitution, there are good hopes of his victory over Mi- Death in this match.

He reports that the force there is reduced to seven Tegiments—about one-third of what it used to be.

Captain Arts, of Company K, Second regiment New York Volunteers, while on & scout, near Bethel, on Wodnesday last, found the following letter, which I deem of sufficient interest to copy:— ‘Yorktown, August —, 1861. Se ecrcmmg és 4 of Special Urder, Ne Sm— seeming disregar jer, No. 163, I feel constrained by a sense of duty to my family to make lication fora leave of absence, for reasons which I proceed to assign as briefly as possible. You are to scme extent aware of circumstances under which T was ordered by you to this post on the 27th May last. Suffice it now to say, that for nearly two weeks jitig my arrival I was in command of a small and badly equipped volunteer force in the county of Flizabeth City, within less than three milos of an evemy of more than ten times my numerical strength, and im! ly superior in all the equipments of war, with our pickets in sight of each other; and | was neces. sarily so much absor' in my public duties as to leave little thought for my own private affairs. By a sudden advance of the enemy I was compelled to leave my home at a few hours’ notice, without even a chance of secnring my papers, which are of great value to me, and forced to entrust my wife and five children, without even seeing them, to the care of the only servant 1 had at my com- mand, to make their escape as best they could, in acon- ‘veyance which was improvised for the occasion. Of a property ip the town of Hampton, which cost me over twenty thousand dollars, | saved onty the wearing ap- ‘of my wife and children aud a portion of my own, with a few valuables. I arrived here that night with r’s name, the clothes | wore (though | subsequently received ome which my wife saved with hers), without evena banket to shelter m the field. T have not even saved a bed for my fami who have since been wholly dependent the kindness of relatives, My li brary, too, whieh I had been collecting for tweaty years, and which cost me some three to four thousand dollars, is now in the hands of the cuomy at Old Point, thoogh I have General Butler's permit to send for it if I can pro- cure the means todo so, This permit I have been en- deavoring to send with a Hlag of truce from the other side of James river; but my brother, who resides in Smith Id, has been ungble tofind any ove who would andor take the task. Anfong my are bonds and accounts to the amount of some two thousand dollars, my policies Of life and fire insurance, amounting to sixti sand dollars, and receipts for payment of the annual ums nd settlements of three administration accounts, failure to obtain which alone might involve mein endless liti gation and irretrievable embarrassment the residue of my life, should it be spared. ‘pesides Thope you will not deem it unmantly in me to say that there are other reasons of a private nature, only one of which I will mention.

Aumayr, Feb, 18, 1862 ‘The public mind at Albany is in an excited condit: over the news of the brilliant victory at Fort Doneisun. No other words will express the condition and the excitement here but the expression that everybody is intoxicated by the enormous flood of good news. It seems that they can hardly contain themselves, and can find no way of giving vent to their joy sufficient to sa tisfy themselves. All conservative men look upon it as a double victory. In the first place, a triumph over the rebels that must demoralize them and cause areaction throughout the Soutb. In the second Place, it has spiked the guns of the abolitionists, who have been expending money on certain presses and cor~ respondents to publish and circulate underhanded insinu ations and attacks upon General McClellan and Mrs Lin coln, all of which is a part and parcel of « programme marked out at a private gathering of these wise beads about the time that Senator Sumner made his speech be fore the Young Men’s Republican Association in New York. At that meeting a line of action was marked out, of which Greeley and the proprietors of the Independent, were cognizant, and which they consented to, and I be- lieve that Greeley was present; at any rate, he mem. ber of the association which has charge of the execution of the programme, and has in his paper performed his part of the work. In the first place, twenty thousand copies of Senator Sumner’s speech for emancipation were printed, an agent appointed to go to Washington to see that mem- bers of Congress had full supply, and if possible to get them into the army into the hands of the Privates, in large enough quantities to teaven the limp. At the same time the Washington correspondents of cer. tain papers were to be ordered to commence their at- tacks upon McClellan and Mrs. Lincoln, to be followed up editorially, with a determination, as it was expressed openly by one ;-erson at the meeting, to force the admin- istration and General McClel'an into the adoption of the emancipation programme, or make the latter gentleman resign, 80 that they could get some one in his place who ‘would adopt their policy. Several private meetings were afterwards held in Wall street,at which only a select few attended. The details of the plans-were at those meetings marked out. Subsequently: another private meoting was held, under the pretence of preparing a plan for the reorganization of the republican party. At this meetix yg Mage Tiger ed every Northern State, the object , while pretending to reorganize republican party, to organize an effective combina- br t the North to carry out their Jellan to raise the’ emancipation flag or re- Sign. gathering proved in a great measure a fizzle. ‘There did not appear to be enough men of prominence will. ing to mix themselves up withany such movement to make the ear pe, - Tespectublo one, as far as numbers are concerned. They tel! back, therofore, upon the original organization, backed by the Young Men’s Republican Association, to carry out their former ramme. The numerous attacks ian and insinuations made against Mrs. Lincoln in certain republican dailies and ‘weeklies, as well as the base falsehoods in certain pre- tended religious weeklies, published by men who from the pulpit inculcate the doctrine, “Thou sbalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor,’ have been the direct fruits of these conspirators, as is likewise the Hickman jiona) Committee. The victories in Tennessee have in a meagure spiked the guns of these conspirators, and will cause their editorial arrows to tall harmless hereafter. It is therefore a double victory. While it has sont terror to the rebels, it has likewise Drought grief te the Northorn enemies of the coun- try. Pillsbury, no doubt, is now mourning im sackcloth and ashes. At the recent abolition in this place that gentleman said he no sympathy with the North; that it grieved him to hear of their success, and it always made him rejoice when the intelligence came of tho success of the Sonthern arms. The only difference between Pillsbury and his co- conspirators is that ho is frank and says what he means, whilo the others disguise their motives, and are much the worst enemies to the country. After that confession, nobody cares what Pillsbury says, for they know what he js after. ‘The bill providing for the public defence of the State, to erect fortiiications and mount guns, came up in the Committee of the Whole this morning. It unexpectoiily met with oppositioa from one source, on the ground that it was unconstitutional; that it was not}constitutional to raise funds for warlike purposes, except in cage of an inva- sion. This is. the cry ot the peace party and secession sympathizers in regard to the war fur the suppression om the rel |, Used ever since the original pro- clamation of the President, calling out the first seventy-five men, and wo had thought that the rapidly occuring events of the last six months had ended that cry. Tho attempt to cling to that kind of red tape does not bolong to this age. To this argument it was shown, by ollicial statements, that the Canadians were accumulating men, ammunition and material on the border. It was openly boasted by them that they would have guboate enongh on Lake Ontario to fully command that lake by the 1st of April. There were only a dozen inferior guns on our side to defend the State, and not am- mupition enough on the northern frontier of the State to fire @ half dozen rounds. A statement was also made that the Jocks on the Welland Canal were during the day- time guarded by @ line of pickets, and during the night by a double file. Al) this meant something. f was fur- ther stated that guns of calibre were veeded in New York, or that city would be at the mercy of a for. eign foe. "The importance of the subject was further urged om the ground of the jealousy of England of our increasing power, and that she was only waiting tor an opportunity to strike us a blow. Ani goutleman thought that there was no need of purchasing guns—our armies were capturing them faster than they could be made. This is all very well for talk; but if there is a war between the government and either or both the English and Freuch Powers, it‘ will be found that the gus the rebels have in thoir possession will aot enable us to resist the superior guns that these Powers will bring against us. We shall need the very best weapons that human skill can devise to contend against their iron-clad men-of-war and their Armstrong guns. The day is paxt for quibble; the signs of the times indi- cate a storm, and he who runs may read. Every person who has taken upon himself the oath of office and stands iu the capacity of representative of the is called Upon to do all that lies within Poerty toward defending the property of the State. best way to pre- veut England from going to war with us is to be pre pared 10 meet her; let her know that formidable guns are stationed at every point, and that stout hands aod brave hearts are there to man them, and she will then hesitate before she plunges into war. Such & course will cost money; but what, we ask, will that be when compared with the enormous destruction of pro. perty an@ sacrifice of life that the invasion of an army across our frontier and ite march through the State would canse, if we are unprepared to receive it. One day's bombardment of the city of New York by the iron-clad steamers ef the British navy would caus thovsandfold more lors of property than the passage of adozen bills appropriaticg the amount that this bill before the Legislature doer. The sacrifice of life, who shall count its value? And yet we are told that it is uneonastitutional to move until vasion bas actually commenced. Surely the nineteenth ceutury has pro. duced a race of wise men—men before whom Webster, Clay and that galaxy of siatetmen sink into in- significance. An effort was made Ww postpone the cousideration of the bill untii ext weer bat that was voted down; progrese was finally reported, and it will probabiy come up for consideration at the evening session to-morrow night. ‘There ie an army of New Yorkers hore today; a couple of doven are on hand to look after the Broadway railway, some for it, and others opposed to it, 1. is to be argued before the committee thig afternoon. and come tant developer: xpected to lake piace ore are several parties here on the Other railroad hills, and a good lobby on the City Charter and Health bills. he way By the the Charter and Hvalth bills were tound in the Assembly this morning, printed, with the statement upon them that they had been read twice. referred to the committee, and reported favorably by said committee, and committed to the Committe of the Whole, Mr. Loutrel, discovering the matter, called the attention of the Honse to the affair, desiring to know by whose au- thority that was done.

There were now over five hundred omnibuses running in Broad- way, and a careful eatimate showed that one hundred cars would carry the same passengers, and do it better; and the cars, all knew, took up but little more super- ficial space than an’ omnibus. The cars would also be asaving of time. The curs in the city now goat the rate of six miles per hour, while the omnibuses go but four. This was an enormous saving of time, when it is considered that upwards of forty thousand passengers ride every day through Broadway. It would give those who wanted er further up town for cheaper rents an opportunity to do so, without occupying any more time in going back and forth. The friends of this bill desired that ali interests should be protected, and if this bill was not perfect in that respect, then let it be made ao. Mr. A. 'T. Stewart next spoke, referring to the business interest that was opposed to it, There was not avother Broadway in the world, and any rule that would apply to other streets would not to that.

The hour for the evening seasion of the Legislature arrived just as he got under way, and the committee ad- jonrned until to-morrow morning. The Albany and Susquehanna Raiiroad bill was ordered reading in the Senate to-night. The mbly was engaged all the evening making amendments to a little bill for schools in almshouses. At a meeting of the Canal Board, held yesterday, a re solution was adopted, without a dissenting voice, direct- ing that the six per cent canal bonds that fall dup between this and the 1st of July, amounting to about nine hundred tl lars, shall be paid in gold. They have thus decided that gold is the currency of the State. This ac- tion, at this timo, must be of a decided benofit to the State in future negotiations, and will make the State secu- stow the best in the market, NEW YORK LEGISLATURE. Senate.
