WHAT r TO BE DONE IN SOUTH 0n"o'-''A'
pefora South Carolina RECEIVERS from her
fright port will be created within her oer-
ar beside which Charleston was never OF
much. is now of very httle, and will soon be
of no account. Its inhabitants Will be more
numerous than her largest towns boast Of,
and lis trade more than they ever enjoyed.
Frame houses aud large quantities of mate
rials for the construction of stores have been
sent TO Port Royal Wharyes will be imme-
dately built. Already numerous applications
for liberty to trade have been made, and en-
terprising Yankees have begun to make prOpo-
pOsals for the purchase Of land. Ofice-seehers
are on the alert. Numerous applications for the
dictatorship, both there and at Hatteras, have
been received.
REBEL PIRATICAL PREPARATIONS.
Ii is known TO be the intention of the Rebel
Government to put piratical craft into distant
seas, where, as our cruisers have been re-
Gently withdrawn they hope to be able to
prey upon honest commerce with IMMUNITY.
The privateer reported TO be fitting cut at
Shanghae is believed to be but one of num-
Der which are to make their appearance in
that vicinity. Mr.. Ward, formerly Minister
to China, who managed to get abroad 10y way
Of Canada is thought to be on his way to the
CeleatiaIs, bearing letters calculated to further
this end. In view of this prospect, Govern
ment is urged and will probably consent to
establish lines Of armed mail steamers from
New-York to Rio Janeiro aud from San Fran
cisco to China.
THE FEELING IN ARIZONA AND NElCHBOBING
MEXICAN STATES.
Tie Arizona Rebels are less noisy now that
Herbert, who killed the waiter at Wizards, and
his followers, have gone to Texas. 1t is believed
indeed that the Union men are now in the MAORI
" in the Territory. OF , 800 naturalzed citizens
Of Mexican birth, 500 are thought to be ready
10 take tie field on horseback for their adopted
country. The same feeling is dominant in the
ncighboring Mexican States Of Sonora, Chihuahua,
aud SmalOa Nine tenths of their inhabitants
are known to be in favor of annexation to tie
Union IN preference to d submission 70 the rule Of
SPAIN which they believe the combined fleet to
threaten. Mexico may be unwilling 10 degrade
herself 50 far as to sell them for so many millions
To our Government, but il the European Powers
push Der too far, they will east in their lot with
ns, with or without permission from the Central
Government.
COMMUNICATIONS WITH MEXICO.
Although the City Of Mexico is but ten or
twelve days from Washington, and it should
seem that the two Governments ought, espe-
cially q: this juncture, to be kept well informed
touching each Others dongs and purposes, we
still have no regular communication with Min
lister Corwin. He is often without dates from
home for two months together. At each end Of
the route between the West Indies and Vera
Cruz, letters lie for weeks together waiting for
the British mail steamer. Can We not afford a
dispatch boat of our own, at least until the
pean Powers is settled
