TIE FEELING OF THE SOLDIERS. The New York
Express, of Saturday in its lengthy account of the
embarkation of troops on the steamer Atlantic
relates some incidents almost significant the
deserton of one hundred Of the men before the
sailing of the vessel. That paper says
Major Holmes resignation was sent to Washing
ton on Friday, to take effect to-day. In con
versation to-day Major Bolmes assigned as a
for his resignation that he did not choose to
continue drilling men to cut the throats of his
friends at the South STILL he says, he has the in
terests of the whole country at heart.
The officers on the Island affect to deny that
there is any discomfort among the troops. They,
however, take particular care to-day to keep out
siders from conversing with the men. One of the
Fatter, when asked to-day if he was willing to go
South and fight, significantly replied
i" Would you kill your brother without cause ?
Nc, Sir. We are soldiers It's true, and our bust
ness is to fight, and we will fight, if we can fight
Indians. or Mexicans but the boys never will fight
their own cOuntrymen."
The officers are not pleased wife the prospect of
a collision with their fellow countrymen South
They are quiet to their destination bat from the
drift of their talk it is inferred that they are
destined forFort Pckens, which is to be reinforced
and proyisioned by aid of man-of-war con7oys.

Look to the recent past aud see II what has
been said preference to the efficiency Of the SER
vices fudge Wattsln the city OF Washington
is not true. Never perhaps, since the formation
Of the Territorial government has any one man
had so much influence with an administration as
he has had with that Of President Lincoln. That
influence too has been exerted for the benefit Of
the whole Territory and not, as Is customary in
such cases, for the promotion Of partizan friends
and the advancement Of party interests A man
who has proved himself thus efficient and thus
impartial is certainly worthy Of the confidence oI
the good people of New Mexico, They can rely
upon it that bis whole energies will be directed t.
the faithful prosecution of their business in th(
Federal capital and il they will only commission
him as their dily elected Representative bis powe
to do good in Their behalf will bo increased ten
fjd more than it has been in the past whilst hi
was acting for them merely in the capacity Of 4
private citiz'u.
P4ty feelings Of private vindictiveness hayt
produced on the part Of some small minded mel
an active. though limited opposition to the Judge
1t is grliiyiug to know that this opposition find,
but small countenance among the masses Of thC
people, who have no faith in the integrity Of thost
who have been iustrumentalin in placing Mr.. Archu

perfectly well that Archnleta was not made can

the promotion oCany public interest Hence til,
unIonnded reports that are originated and put il
circulation with the purpose Of securing him vote
and to damage the prospects Of Judge Watt,

do more than truce them to heir source to satisl,
himself of the amount of Importance and credl
that should be attached to them, Put forth 70

be received with scorn and not even be honore,

FRoN TYBEE.-A stiff wind prevailed all day
yesterday, and the sea ran high, consequently the
Federsls could do nothing in the way Of landing
troops on Tybee Island. The Federal ship reported
ashore in the North breaker is shu there, and ap>

will be total loss.
Several of our scouts went on the Island on Sun
day night and brought of two fine V lid hogs. They
saw no Federals, and if there were any on the IS
land they must have been in the vicinity Of the big

them has lost its charm. OF course it viii matter
little where these veterans go, 80 they serve their

the new levies- Several companies have already
been formed, electng thar officers, &c.
