A PREDICTION BY MIX. BREckfNR1DGE.-in the
course Of a debate in the Federal Senate, on the
lst inst, on the measure known as the Insurrec-
ton bill, MFR. Breckenridge said:
But the proceedings Of Congress far eclipsed
anything the President had done, and the Presi-
dents acts sink into nothingness before the abso-
lutte outrages on personal liberty perpetrated by
Congress. It is evident that the Constitution is
to be laid aside, and he wanted the country to
know the fact. The fact is, we are on the wrong
tack, and the people are beginning to see it.
Nothing but ruin to the North and South follows
war. Let Congress pause and respond to the
uprising all over the country for peace. War is
final dissolution. If we go Oh twelve months we
shall have three Confederacies instead Of one.
He knew he was uttering sentiments which nearly
all sneered at, but he was willing to abide by the
final judgment Of history.
Again, in the same debate, replying to Baker,
of Oregon, he remarked: a+ -
! The Speaker says I am speaking brilliant
treason. He was not aware of it. He believed
he was speaking for the good Of the country. He,
was speaking by the indulgence of no man, but
by the guarantee of the Constitution. The Sena-
tor asks, what would have been done to the
Roman Senator? and another Senator, whose
courage is overrated. says he would have been
hurled from the Tarpeian Rock. If we ever have
aTarpeian Rock, and a victim is wanted, it should
be the man who, according to the measure of his
intellect, has been the chief author of the present
public misfortune. He, and men like him, had
brought the country to the present condition. He
replied with the Indignation he ought to feel at
such an insult on the floor of the Senate. The
opinions he entertained were his own, and they
were honestly entertained. He believed they
Hrprn fho opirHSnnc rF ~, Cad - ~
that if this State decided to 90 into the war, he
would no longer represent her in the Senate.
Mr.. Baker said, leave him to settle the question
with his State.

THE CRY DEFENsEs.-History shows that one
of the great difficulties attending the defense Of
large cities, has been conflicts OF interest and di-
visions of sentiment among their people, or con-
f1ict of opinion, authority, and policy, among
those who have, OF claim to have the direction of
their defense. Rome was once on the point of
being captured by the Gauls before its people
could agree on the right commander. Constan-
tinople fell an easy victim to the Turks in eonse-
quence Of the factions who waged i~ncessant war
upon each other within its walls. These, and
similar instances, are full of instruction in times
like the present. New Orleans, especially, should
profit by them. Until a few days past we had
cause to fear that measures of defense for
New Orleans would be embarrassed by want of
harmony between our city authorities, the State
Executive, and the Confederate General COM
handing in this part of Louisiana. Some time
ago, as it is known, the City Council appropri-
ated two hundred thousand dollars for the de-
Tense of the city. About twenty thousand dol
lars of this sum were expended ON works net ap-
proved by Gen Twiggs, and the prosecution Of
which was soon abandoned. The subject of city
defenses then hung suspended awhile, the Coun-
Gil and its defense committee not agreeing in
their views, and Gen. Twiggs and Gov. Moore
concurring in no common policy touching the
matter. But all that, We are glad to know, is
now changed A few days ago Gen. Twiggs sig
nlhed to the Councll uiat ne Wasr1ady 10 ulueI-
take the works they desired if they would furnish
funds necessary to their construction. The
Council met in special session last night to con-
slider this proposition. and the result was, by Il
unanimous vote. they placed one hundred theus-
and dollars to the credit of Gen. TWiggs in the
City Treasury. Besides this sum, we understand,
Gen. Twiggs will be able to use an additional
hundred thousand dollars literally advanced to
the Governor by one of our banks, making a
total of two hundred thousand dollars subject to
be disbursed by. him for city dcfenses. This is
certainly a highly gratifying conclusion. There
being but one head to direct works of defense, we
may expect unity of plan, consistency of details,
and efficiency of execution. [Delta.

How THE NEWS WAS RECEIVED AT PHILADELPHIA.
Forneys Press thus tells how the news of the
terrible defeat Of the Federals ut Manassas was
received in that city:
The streets were speedily filed with hundreds
of nervous, pallid citizens, who spoke in low, fit
full language of the probable effect of the repulse
upon the prolongation OF the war, the courage of
our soldiery. and the inhuman exultation of the
rebels. Had an epidemic swept over the city, or
desolation entered into its houses. or each man
felt in his heart the tabled death. or anything of
individual or personal misfortune occurred, there
might have been some cheerfulness to light up
the anxious faces. In this case, however, it was
an imperilled nation, which implied to every
Philadelphian an imperilled home and a dis
graced people
The brightness Of the sky seemed suddenly
overcast; the quick pulses Of the morning beat
slowly and sadly; there was sorrow in every
household, and the terrors Of war came home to
our once happy people in all their ignominy and
acuteness.
We heard Of a number of eases where weak
and aged citizens fell half lifeless at the first
intimation. and many were taken to their beds,
under circumstances of almost hopeless re-
covery.

BATON ROUGE. August Is, 1861

Editor DemOcrdt-As you are well aware, the
'Pointe Coupee Light Artillery left Camp Pike on
Thursday last. and embarked on board the steam
er Prince of Wales for Memphis. The cavalcade
of six pieces of artillery, with c~aissons, ammuni-
ton wagons, and nearly one hundred horses,
made up IA novel and most imposing procession.
Before all were embarked on board. a heavy
thunderstorm arose, which prevented many of
our citizens from giving them their farewell
blessing.
Pointc Coupee may well be proud of this COM
pany. Throughout their whole stay here of about
six weeks, not a word of complaint was ever
uttered against them. Every evening that the
weather permitted, the camp and parade grounds
were visited by hundreds Of the ladies of the
city.
Their reputation for good and orderly conduct
was not limited to this region, but extended from
New Orleans to Memphis, as the following anec-
dote will show: The Captain of the Prince OF
Wales. meeting with one of the men on the
morning of his arrival here, asked him if he be-
longed to the Pointe Coupee Artillery, to which
he replied in the affirmative. We'll" says the
Captain, Il ain pleased to have your company
go up with me, as the officers of the Mary kccne
and other boats represent yours as a company of
gentlemen" --sa
The day before their departure, an election
took place for d Fourth Lieutenant and several
~non-comnissioned officers. The increase of the
battery from four to six guns, rendered this in
crease of officers necessary. MI. ilsley, formerly
a Lieutenant in the company of Donaldsonville
Cannoneers, was unanimously elected Fourt Lieu
tenant. This gentleman, a clerk in the land
Office, has acted as drill-master of the company
is a most excellent permanent acquisition.
The military spirit is yet glowing brightly
around us. J. NJ. Taylor, senior editor of the
Advocate, is raising a company of cavalry, to
form a portion Of the j." battalion Under Col. John
s.. Scott. 1t may not be out of place to remark
en- passont, that the term battalion is never APP
piled by military men, or writers on military
matters, to cavalry. but is altogether applicable
to infantry. 1t is more proper to speak of caval-
ry by companies, squadrons and regiments.
We understand the gallant Capt. c. W. Keep
will soon be e%ncampcd in this neighborhood with
his company of picked men. and horses. see
by the Gazette and Sentinel. that my friend Ned
Moore, OF 1berviilc. has given his note, due in
three months, for $4,000 as u present to this COM
pany. @M PHENIA.
