Last Thursday the Grey Cloud and the New London arrived off Pascagoula. The ‘raught of water of the New Londom was wo great to ad- mit of her going up t the town, co Capt. Reed was obliged to lay offat anchor, Capt. Buchanan pushed on ip to the town, and, landing his men, destroyed the office of the telegraph to Mobrie, The operator, suspect- jug the design, escaped with most of. the appa- ratus before the Grey Cloud arrived, but Capt. Buchanan fixed his wires and other property n such @ manner that the apparatus won’t be «f mock coompt. He then tried to go up the Pascagoula river, it found that the rebels had driven cown piles and sunk fatbeats as an obstruction, He fastened on to one of ine piles and endeavored to pull it up, but coukin’t do it. He then tried to edge in between the piles, but that being “po go’? he manned a launch with sixty marmes, whow he had borrowed from the supply ship Potomac, at Ship Is\and, and started up the river to cut the cable in another place, 80 a8 to more efiectually stop commupication with Mobile. As he was drawing near the land he saw a crowd of women scatter and run, and in an instant he received che concealed fire of about sixty muskets. His men drop- ped in the beat, and by that means probably saved m:ny lives. Ten of the men were wounded, one it is feared mortally. The fire was returned by the marines,and three rebel men and one woman were killed. Capt. Buchanan then returned to the Grey Cloud with his men. He was informed that the people had sent off for two hundred solders and some field artillery; 80 he informed the inhabitants of Pascsgovla that he should lay ff the town until the rext morning, and if be was fired upon h® would shell and destroy the place. He was not further molested. On returning to New Orleans he stopped Satur- day at Covington, and on going ashore found the place entirely deserted, apparently, but he received informa vion that behind a grocery store there was quite a little force of rebel soldiers concealed, and waiting te dash out ‘apen our force and “gobble” them. Captain Buchanan silected to think that there was nobody in the place, and withdrew his men to the gunboat, and then let fly two five second shelis at the grocery, and immediately there was a stampede of the most surprised and fright- ened men that one often sees, The rebels are raising the guns from the rebel gun- boats sunk in the rivere across the lake, and are erecting batteries to defend themselves against invasion. General l’utier has adupted a new plan to prevent the ontrages of guerillas, of which I have so frequently spoken. Last week a band of these outlaws care to the house of Mr. Thomas S. Burbank, of the parish of St. Jonu the Baptist, at night and seized the person of bis brother and carried him off across the river to Opelousas, where Governor Moore is, and rumor says that he has since been hungs All this because he is guilty of being + Union mon, On Saturday Mr. Tnomas Burbank came down to the city and appeaicd to General Butier for protection, and asked bim to devise some plan by which the guerillas might be prevented from murdering his brother and the other Union men that have been taken from their homes. The Gexeral told Mr. Burbank te name a ualf dozen men in the parish who represent the influence apd wealth of the district and who are noted for their strong secessionism. He named them, and wu Sunday, accompanied by Captain Clark’s Company of the Twenty-sixth Massachusetts, he went up on a boat to the parish of St.John the Baptist, and ar- rested Megsrs. Deslonde (a brother-in-law of Slidell and Beauregard), P. A. St. Martin, —— Girard, Malsin Mar millon, £. Goudrey and G. Luminais. They were brought vo this city aud contined as nostages for the Union men in the hands of the guerillas. They have since been re- ‘eased, by giving their paroie not to leave New Orleans, aod to be forthcoming at General Butler’s order, and by urpishing very strong security. We have bad apother case of sending a woman into confinement A young and very pretty woman, Mrs Cowan. was arrested last week for violent secession de- ‘™ nstrations; but alter a few days of custody she was r leased op Saturday. The first act of ber liberty was to send acardto the Delia defymg the authority of the United States, and then she forwarded a enpy of the card, ‘* with the compliments ef the author,’’ to Gen Butler. On Sunday she was again arrested, but on the appeal of her mother was released the same day. On Monday, for reasous that are necessarily secret, but very ‘editable to the General, she was taken over to Fort feComb, where she will be treated with perfect kind uess, and as the fort is in superd condition, she is likely o pass the summer very pleasantly. Lieutenant Wei zel, Of General Butier’s sia, was her escort to the fort «od on her trip she confessed that sho had receutiy had vecasion to change her opinion of General Bu mi that she bad conceived a deep respect for him. She was i. capital spirits, and seemed to look forward to a resi dence at the fort with no little delight, ‘The three persons whom I mentioned im my last a: having been arrested while crying to pass our lines have bem punished as follows:—Messrs, Rossy and Dacres, sent to Fort St. Philip, and Mr. Russell, having been en- waged iu attempring to get away for the purpose of at- tending to the business of his employers, Mersrs, Ben Sunysen, Lewis & Co., was released after bis principals important here. are five or six hundred collected, aud the owners are cou stantly applying to have them returned.

No caw condemns the individual who sla the robber or ass.ssiu. And no just law can condemn community for using all tts power to resist the invader and drive him from their soil. The exercise of this right a0 universally recoguied becomes an imperative duty when tie invader. as has been the case with the federal troops in this district, disregards those rvles .f warfare recognized and respected by all ciitized nations, and & opts that code which has heretofore been cynflued to the rudest savages. The proof of this is unfortunately too abundant ia the vicinity of Baton Rouge. It is ab tested by heipiess women and children flying Crom their burning homes and by desolation of piantatious, by the plunder of private property and the wanton destruction of growing crops. Such acts are crimes agaist numanity, and justify all men in taking up arms against their per- petrators. The independence of nations his rarely been achieved by regular armies. Our own Revolation—that Revolution which successtully established the great prin- ciple for which the Confederate States are now contend- img, ‘that all governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed’’—was mainly fought out by men who leit the plough at the news of enemy's ay proach, and returned te it when be had been driven back. ik may be conceded that in Europe, where tho govern- ments mainly rely upon large standing armies, wRich are as much as possible disconnected with the people, and where the policy 18 to prevent the people trom bearing almost any circumstances, sume very ements on this subject have been is- serted, and to some extent tolerated. But such doc trines have never been recognized on this continent. The United States especially have repudiated them. The various revolutious which have agitated the Cen- trai and south American States bave been conducted by the peopie. frequently without organization and without leaders other than those chosen upon the spur of the oc. casion, to direct a single enterprise. Anu to recur to the Revolution of our forefathers, the history of that im- mortal struggle abounds with instances where tho hardy yeoman—as at Lexington and Bunker Hill—were like the clansmen of Rhoderick Dhu, called by a cuncerted signai to some ‘Limerick Mesd,” and there elect their ollicers ‘pon the very field of battle, But whatever differcnve of opinion may exist on this point it has never been claimed, even by the most stringent advocates of iegiti- macy, that one belligerent bes any right to complain of the name or form which the other may choose to give to i's military organization. The right te adopt these to the pecutiar service requied hos been universally eonceed; so far, indeed, has this prac- tice beeu carried in naval warfare, th the Ocean's bounds are recognized as legitimate an: belligerenis. And now, indeed, the extruordi: spectacie is presented to the contemplation of ctviii; ‘man in this boasted nineteenth century of the Christian world, of @ nation claiming wo be civilized, in yiolat, its covstitutional obligations, inaugurating deliberately servile war by stinwuia! fetviized Africau to raise his hand against his master and benctactor, and thus make war upon the Anglo-Saxon race—war on humen nature.

The officers of this corpe are commissioned.

It is asked, therefore, what p text can be offered by the enemy for subjecting tho mein hers of this corps to a different treatinent from that ex- tended to other prisoners of war? Certainly no such dis- tinction can be recognized or tolerated by us.

NEWSPAPER ACCOUNTS. How General Butler Punishes Disobe- dicnee of Orders. [From: the New Orleans Picayune, July 19.) A WARNING TO INTERMEDDLERS, The following facts, derived from unquestionable a thority, may serve to illustrate the danger incurred by federal officers who sock to entice or corrupt the slaves of our people. One of our citizens having miseed a valu- able slave woman, made inquiry for her, aid ascertained that she was in the service of an officer of one of tho federal regiments. He proceeded to the boarding house of the ofticer, and there finding the women, asked if sho was not ready to go home, The woman replied that she was, but that the federal officor in whese service she was, would not permit her. The citizen thea saw the officer, and received from him assurance that the woman would be sent to him. This promise was not kept, and our citizen being disgusted with the doubie dealing and bad taith of the officer, jaid his complaint befere Lieutenant Weitzel, who manifested great indignation against the officer, and requested the citizen to see Gen. Butier, The wife of our citizen undertook the mission to Gen. Butler, and after some difficulty succeeded in obtaining ap inter’ view with him. Gen. Butler immediately took the mat- ter in hand,and sent a guard to the boarding house where the slave was harbored, haa the officer who so harbored hor arresied and seut to jafl, and, on the inter- ference of & chaplain of one of the federal regiments against the arrest of the woman, had his reverendshi;: also arrested and placed in confipoment. The girl was sent home to her master. with the request that she should not be cruelly punished. This course on the part of the General comman:ling is calculated to put a stop to an abuse which must produce quite as much trouble to the federal authorities as to our own citizens. We trust it will be followed up in all similar cases of intermeddling with our slaves. [From the New Orleans Deita, July 20.} ‘The facta in this case are not stated. ‘The slaves of our people,” in this instance, did not contribute an jota to the “great indignation’ displayed.

Checks to the amount of $130,000 legal currency were drawn for, paid in Confederate notes, There was not any express uader- standing as to what description of notes Id be re turned, At the time the only cireulation was the Cou- federate notes, no other notes paid by the banks fur p which had been made in gold and sliver. or for other debts, they receiving the same on deposits anc for notes due freely at par.
