Seizure of Arms at Baltimore
PROCLAMATION OF GOV. HICKS.

BALTIMORE, May 15.--Gsn. Butler had a
long interview prior to the issuing of his
procl amation, with the Mayor and several
members of the City Council. 1t is said that
the conversation showed that tho General was
more intimately acquainted with affairs here
than many supposed.
During the afternoon, Gen. Butler made q
formal demand on the city authorities for the
delivery of a quantity of arms stored in the
warehouse OF John S. Cuttings, at the corner
of Guy and Second streets. Marshal Kane
refused to deliver up the arms without an
order from the Mayor vas produced by the
officer. Finally after some alteration, an
order was procured and the arms were brought
out, making Is dray loads. About two-thirds
of the fire arms were carbines, and the rest
we've flint lock muskets. There was also a
large number of pixies. A guard of Federal
troops was placed over the arms and escorted
by large number of police. They were ta-
ken ts the Port.
The Governor has issued the following
Proclamation:
Whereas, The President Of the U. States
has called upon me, the Governor of Nary
land, fer four regiments of infantry or rifle
men, to serve for a period OF three months,
the sail requisitiou having been made in
spirit and pursuanes OF law; aud whereas, to
the said requisition has been added, the writ
ten assurance of the Secretary OF War, that
said regiments shall be detailed to serve with
in the limits of the State Of Maryland, for the
defence of the Capitol of the United States,
and not TO serve beyond the limits aforesaid.
Now, therefore, I, Thomas Holiday Hicks
Governor of the State of Maryland, do by this
my Proclamation, call upon the loyal citizens
I of Maryland to volunteer their services to the
exteut of tour regiments, aforesaid, 10 serve
during the period of three months, within the
limits of Maryland, or in defense of the Cap
| iol of the United States, to bs subject unde,
the conditions aforesaid, to orders Of the
Comm ander.in Chief Of the army of the U
i S. Given under my hand and the great sea
OF the State of Maryland, at the city Of Fred
erick, this l4,h day of May, 1851.

A letter from Montgomery, in The
Charleston Courier. says:
"Mr. Davis has no intention of joining
the army, though there is great specula.
lion about his going to Virginia within 9
few weeks, having in his train the Con.
gress, the Departments, and, in fact al
the machinery Of Government. The best
informed officials think that the removal
will surely take place. At. all events,
there is so much dissatisfaction with
Montgomery, that the seat of Government
cannot long remain there. 1t may be
changed to Huntsville OF Atlanta, but
the Congress will probably indicate Vir.
ginia as the State, and Richmond as the
Capital
1t would he rather sorry joke for the
Secessionists if General Scott should
capture Davis and the whole machinery
of the Southern Government in Virginia.
Such an event is by no means impossible,
if they come into that State, within his
reach.

PERSONAL APPEARANCE or SECESSION
LEADERS The Wilmington Journal thus
describes Gen. Beauregard and Jefferson
Davis:
Gen. Beauregard has not single
Anglo Saxon feature in his face. The
whole tone of his countenanee and attitude

one of the style of Cavaignac or Lamor-
iciere. 1t is Of the solid type Of French.

Mr. Davis locks young for his age,
which is veil over City. He might bo o
preacher, for any fire eating expression
about him. But for the square and
s.raightiy opened eyes and habitually
closed mouth, firm as iron, no one would
suspect Mr.. Davis of being the civil and
military leader of q great national move
ment.
