Yea have probably received the telesraPhic
stasemeat that the Mississippi Convention, which
has jast adjourned, adopted the Montgomery
cssM,tuti, by vote of 70 to z. This was
iwus on the final vote. But previous to this, on
several propositions to submit the Constitution TO
~ popular vote, 81 members gave their voices
~ referring it to the people to 53 against
FS,dipe the majority iDexorabe, all the minority
except seven at last came into the traces, and
vsted for the Constitution.
Yhe reports received by telegraph this morn
ins Of probable collision at Fort Sumter, and
e the proposed immediate blockade Of the mouth
e the Mississippi by the Federal Government,
80 the subject Of universal comment Intense
unxisiy is manifested to learn their truth, and
.sw fre-eaters who have been 30 bitterly de-
nssac ng Mr.. Lincoln's Administration for not
sd.rssng an out and out cOercioo policy, or else
psspgnlzing the Southern Coniederacy, seem to
thish that 1t is at last " showing lite baud" with
q vengeance. They still profess TO be sanguDe,
ks~eve,, that the first drop Of blood shed will
bring oil the Border Slave States into the Seces-
son ranks. Troops are being conferred at Fort
Psckens from all the Gulf States. The Conied-
.srxte forces already there must number some
fsioe over three thousand.
A Singular Journalistic war is just now raging
,beswseD two of our city papers Tie Picayune
has the largest circulation in New-Orleans, and
b an agreeable aud visacious newspaper, but has
70 ssrt Of backbone. On the great topic Of the
4nn-s-Seees-ion-t is neither fish, flesh, nor
xsud salt herring. At heart it is evidently OPP
ppsea to the fre-eaters, and occasionally It
viseks up courage enough to denounce the
,s~xrers mildly; but then Tis Delta bOmbards
n an Abolition sheet Of THE TRIBUNE school.
Tn invariably frIghtsns The Piedyuns into
"a most rabid -SecessioDisn for about week,
sfser which it again dares TO call its soul
~ own for thee or four days, until The
Dsiss opens upon it again. Come, Mr. Picayune,
d be either something or nothing greater than
ysa, even Mr.. Stephen A. Douglas, oDce came
to on uptinely end, from carrying water on both

A review Of the Second Company Of Louisiana
za.aves has just taken place Oh La!ay ette square.
A profe SD view of this square-one OF the most
bssatiful little pleasure grounds in the city
given IN Hsrpsr's Hte.ty of March 20, is no
moro like Tho Lafayette Square Of the present
day. than It is like the City Hall Park 10 New
York, though tOl.rable representation Of what
tbo square was, seven or eight years ago. The
nsspe 10 true OF all the other New-Orleans views
which accompany it; they are unearthed, think,
from an old puniber Of Harpers Magazine.
THIS COMPANY Of Zouayes numbers LOG. They
arc nttired Ia red fez caps with blue tsssels,
Sine kilts faced with red, baggy red breeehes,
and eutta-percaa "leggiues." They have Light
hlre sasbes around the waist, and their gray
Blankets hooped over the left shoulder aud under
the right arm. Their 0Etrf costume is OF course
SHftc'eDt ~ make them an Object OF general
curiosity, and the review was wittessed by two
o. three Thousand people. Many Of the company
have q very juvenile look, aud handle their gpns
~ IL they were little afraid Of them. They
leave Cor Peusacola this evening.
