RAISING OF THE MoNsTER GUE "UNoS."
The work Of raising the immense gun
Union" says the Baltimore American, pre-
viously noticed sshaving been accidentally
sunk in the water at one of the Locust
Point vhafves, was again resumed recently
by the rigeeIs employed under Mr. j. Wil-
hens, with every prospect of their being
able TO taise it before nightfalL Two inn
mense pieces of timber, placed together like
shears, were used in connection with three
powerful crabs or falls, which were worked
by force of twenty five men. Fortunately
for the success of the undertaking, when the
gun went under water, the strap or sling,
posed of bar irontwo and nda-quarterinches
thick, was left around the gun, near the
breech, at distance of FIVE feet from the
heavy end. An iron chain was placed under
this strap, which, while the gun was in
course of being raised, slipped up to the
trunnion of the piece, where it held fast
The riggers attached another fastening
around the muzzle of the gun. When op.
perations closed for the night, at six O'clock
the gun was entirely out of the water, the
muzzle being several feet above the wharf
level. The gun has yet to be raised several
feet before it can be slung on the deck of
the schooner, where bed of heavy timber
has been prepared for its reception.

SOUTHERN INDEPENDENCE WITH VENICE
ANCE.-There are some curious items in late
copy Of the Courier of Natchez, Mississippi.
For instance, the editor publishes this NOV
ing appeal in double loaded type:
1.-THE receipts of the office during the last
two weeks have not been one tenth of its
expenses for the same time. We know how
hard times are-that dollar is as big as
cart-wheel but a printing office requires
money every week. This Office spends for
hands, paper and telegraph, not less than
$500 weekly, without taking into regard a
single dollar for editorial labor"
By way of showing how independent of
the North " the South is, we copy two
notices from the advertising columns of the
same sheet:
I" "Nea0 Philadelphid Shoes.-A. j. Postle-
thwaite has just received and has now in
store large and full stock of Philadelphia
made rhoes, consisting Of" &c.
"COali CoaI-I have Just received sap
ply of coal from PIttsburg, cheap for cash.
A. DoNEAN."
The Courier also has begging appeal for
funds to fit out new company of rebel
soldiers.

Intense Excitement and Tolerance at tue
SOuIh,

SOnths
A relative of Jeff. Davis, who recently
left the South, says;
The excitement in the Southern States
was greater when left than in any part of
the North have yet visited. Every person
capable of using arms, without regard to
age, was joining the volunteers, and the
women were not only working in the fields,
and tilling the crops which the men had
already planted, but were learning the use
of weapons, for the purpose of protecting
their homes against insurrection of negroes
or other marauders.
No Northern man was safe, even though
protesting to be in favor of Secession, unless
be Joined the ranks of the Southern army
The day before ] started a negro was hung,
because, by putting obstacles on the railroad
track, he had attempted 10 destroy a number
OF volunteers who were leaving, and he
stated that there was a plot among the
negroes to kill the whites as soon as the
volunteers had fairly left that vicinity. Two
days ago | received a letter stating that an
entire family had been massacred by negroes
near the same place. | am satisfied that
almost the entire negro population of the
South is ripe for insurrection, and only
await the opportunity.
found at Nashville upward Of four thou.
sand troops, and was informed by one of
their commanding officers that very large
number were on the sick list, from causes
arising from their own i'm prudence and
impatience of discipline. The President of
a college in Tennessee had been threatened
by mob because he bad suggested to his
students the prOpriety of advising with
their parents or guardians before volunteer.
ingi and in Coffee County Mr. Jewett was
in danger Of his life merely because he was
born in n NOrthern State and would pot
take part in the war. These are only a few
OF the facts as they exist at the South. For

tion Of slavery, and over country where

ROPE FERRIES ACROSS THE POToMAC RIVER.
A correspondent of the Providence (R. I.)

A detachment of twenty five picked men

AN ovERsEER DRIVEN FROM THE SourH.-

A Hartford Conn paper says;
A man who has been acting as an over.
seer on a cotton plantation at Friar's Point,
Calhoun County, Mississippi, was in our
office on Saturday. He confirms the state
ments which have been so often printed,
relative to abuses practiced by vigilance
committees and their satellites, the mobs,
upon unoffending men, guilty of no crime
except Northern birth. He was waited
upon, and invited to join the army of the
Southern Confederacy; declining, he was
ordered to leave within three days, or be
mobbed. He had to make great sacrifices
of his means, and to abandon some of his
largest claims: but, as he felt his life 10 be
in peril he did not shrink from the sacrifice,
and was glad to be able 70 get, by acircuitous
route, to his old place of residence, Hartford,
Conn. He says the army of the South is
living upon the beef pork, &c, which the
agent of jeff Davis purchased on the
Upper Mississippi, before Secession. 1t will
not be so easy for them to renew their sup.
plies, when these are exhausted.

ESCAPE OF A SECESSION TRAIToR.-Thurs.
days Boston Traveller gives the particulars
of the escape of Captain William Trappman,
supposed to be an emissary Of Jeff. Davis,
who took passage in the Amsriea, from Bos.
ton for Liverpool. A dispatch from Super
intendent Kennedy, of New York, ordering
his arrest, was received too late. The TfdV.
elLer says
He exhibited a passport signed by Robert
Bunch, British Consul at Charleston. He
bad also papers showing that he was the
bearer OF dispatches from Lord Lyons, British
Minister at Washington, TO the British Gov
ernment and threatened the direst VEN
geanee of that Government if he was inter-
fered with. Mr.. AIMEE told him that if he
had papers of a reasonable nature on his
person, that passport signed by Queen Vic
toria herself could not save him from arrest
His state room was then searched, but moth
ing of an Objectionable character found there,
and he was allowed to go out in the steamer
which sailed soon after. The baggage of
Mrs. Trappman was not searched, and il is
possible that pTlvateering commissions were
concealed therein. ...la
