The Ocean Emblem, of Toms River
says:
"We are informed by parties from
Ceder Greek, that a Traitor Rebel
from Egg Harbor, entered the Bay at
that place on Monday afternoon, in an
oyster sloop, with the Palmetto flag
flying The citizens of Ceder Greek
went ont to the rebel in small boats
and demanded that he should haul
down the Tory flag. This he refused,
but on being necked, and threatened
with being thrown overheard, he COM
plyeG will. the demand. The party
then left, but no sooner were they on
shore than the Palmetto flag was
again hoisted. Maddened at this
impudent insult, the citizens went to
their houses and every man shoulder
ed gun well charged and returned,
determined to give the pirate warm
reception. The rebel pirate saw these
men and at once set sail. Every gun
however, was fired at the craft, but
whether the shots took effect or not
could not be told as the DO at was
some distance out in the bay.

more. A gentleman, whose yeracity
cannot be questioned, that before he
left this morning he was grati6ed to
see the stars and stripes flying over
the Minute Men,, head quarters, and
on Butchers hill. The silence of the
Union men seems to have been more
powerful than clamor would have
been, al the rabid Secessionists have
defeated their own purposes. There
is great feeling among the business
men, for the re establishment of trade
and their silent conversation is gradu-
ally changing TO upon Unionism.-
There is no doubt as to this state Of
affairs.

WASHINGTON, April 26 1861.
1t il Iat1d, by the best authority,
that 10 yons, the British minister
detained the steamer Persia at New
York until full dispatches could be
forwarded by him to the Home Gov
eminent. Lord Lyons is advised, |
understand, to proffer to the United
States Government, for the suppress
sion of the Slave State rebellion, arms
and ammunition, and troops from Can
ada and England. BY the Persia he
sent out orders for three numbered
thousand stand of the improved Mimic
musket, and for vast number of the
celebrated rifed cannon. Orders in
future are not to be filled in England
for the Rebel Government for arms, or
ammunition, or ships ofwar.
1t is. believed that an English and
French fleet will be sent to the South
ern ports at an early day, to cooper
ate with the United States feet in
in the blockade of Secession ports.
Louis Napoleon has Joined with
Victoria to suppress the Slave State
Rebellion. 1t is stated that his offers

ported, to the Governor General of
