The NecessIty of Arms.

There is some apprehension, says the New
York Tribune, not without foundation, of a
scarcity of arms. 1t is remembered that the
traitors, whom for five months we have per-
mitted to cajole and blind us, prepared for
their treachery by theft and perjury, using
the power which official station gave to
plunder, so far as they could safely, the ar
aenais Of the North. They have put into the
handso of the rebels in this way many thous-
aDds of the arms of the United States, and
left us, 10 q certain degree, without our usual
resource. In addition to this, the traitors
have found sympathizers among us, men
base enough to sell arms where they knew
they would be pre- esently in the hands of the
deadly enemies of the Union. But we have,
nevertheless, arms enough for present pur-
poses.
But we must provide for the future. AL
ready, Massachusetts, has an agent on his
way to England to purchase arms. Ohio has
had the same foresight, and we are happy to
| say an agent went out In the Persia 10 France
on the same errand, though TO what extent
he is authorized to act we do not know. This
| is well, but it is not enough. Europe is ap-
| pTehensive of war at home, and will not be
likely to answer any large demand for arms.
Something may be got from Canada, but
upon either of these sources we ought not TO
rely. Our dependence should be upon our
selves, and ourselves alone, and we must
i resort to energetic measures. Col. Colts
mandatory can turn cut probably l,000 a
/ week, and has been doing 80 for the last four
| months for the South. That game is proba-
| bly, stopped, but as he is not permitted to
i arm the South, and does not dare 10 refuse
| directly TO supply the North, he resorts TO
the only means left him 70 carry his pur-
pose, and puts up the price Of his arms TO q
l figure hitherto unheard Of. A power so ill
used should be taken at once, in such times
| as these, out Of the hands Of SO bad a citizen.
The country needs all the arms that he and all
the manufacturers can make; and he and ali
who show his traitofons disposition should
be compelled 10 work for the Government, Il
they will not do II Of their own accord. W.
need strong measures, and ought not to sub
nit 10 bs trifed with. Every man whC
makes arms should be watched, and, If b
will not work for fair equivalent for th'
Government his mandatory should b
taken away from him. Colonel Colt ha
shown himself eontumaeious, and should b
brought to reason. -...

cspricious will Of that mob shall dictate, or
take the consequences.
Kentucky is safest for herself and for her
neiahbors, when she is unarmed. That she
has many conservative, Union loving people
within her borders is undoubtedly true. Il
is possible that the Union supporting class
may appear TO be in the majority. They
may even be actually so; and yet the case is
not altered. Revolutions always begin with
minorities, and often in the face of that which
appears TO be a strong current Of conserva-
tive enthusiasm. But the revolutionary class
the class liable to be carried away by rev.
olutionary excitement--is always eventually
in the majority, and FIRE does not more rap
idly run along train of gunpowder than
does this excitement when once kindled,
traverse the community.
With arms in the hands Of the rabhle, the
world will seem tame to them until they
find field for their activity. To distress
and rob and drive out or murder the con-
servative class is naturally the first enter
prise in which to embark. That being COM
pleted, the next thing in order will be to
invade. There win not be wanting emissaries
from farther South to urge them on, and
point out the places where mischief may be
done or booty secured. The profits Of trip
to Ohio are already being discussed, and the
ease with which Cincinnati can be captured
and pillaged is a favorite topic with many,
who, when within hearing Of conservative
people, are the loudest to profess their undy-
ing attachment to the Union.
Such excursions will provoke retaliation,
in the course of which not the turbulent, but
the peaceful class, will be the sufferers. Re-
taliatory war cannot stop to discriminate,
and those very men who are pleading to arm
Kentucky may incur the heaviest losses, as
the direct consequence of a compliance with
their requests.
The true way to preserve the peace oi
Kentucky and the Union sentiment in it, is
to leave it unarmed. Ten thousand soldiers
upon the northern side of the Ohio, and no
arms upon the Southern, will exert con-
servative influence in Kentucky more potent
than 100000 of guns in the hands of heI
citizens. These men do not know what they
ask, when they seek to be armed through
Ohio agency. Their EARNED neutrality" is
either snare or delusion; and in either
case, it is our duty to take care of oursalve;
by refusing our assistance to SO dangerous
an experiment.

INTERESTING WAR INCIDEET.-While one
of the Massachusetts regiments was in New
York city, on its way to Washington, a
gentleman residing there met one Of its
members on the street.
"Is there any thing l can do for you,
sir 2" said the New Yorker, his heart warm
ing toward the representative of the brave
Massachusetts militia, who had so promptly
answered the call of their country.
The soldier hesitated a moment, and
finally, raising one of his feet, exhibited a
boot with hole in the toe, and generally
worse for wear.
"How came you here with such boots as
that, my friend ?" asked the patriotic cit
izen.
when the order came for me to join my
company, sir" replied the soldier, " was
plowing in the same field at Concord where
my graz dfather was blowing when the Brit

ingtOn. He did not wait moment, and
did not, sir"
1t is unnecessary to add that the soldier
was Immediately supplied with an excellent
pair of boots.

The Question OF Southern Privateers-Let-
teTs of MaTQue Already Issued by JeiE.
Dayis-MiIItary Plans of the Rebels.
Saturdays New York EVening Post says
A gentleman from Montgomery, Alabama
who left that place on Sunday evening last
and has just arrived in this city, corrects the
rumor that Jefferson Davis would issue no
letters of mark till after the 29th instant.
Four privateers from Mobile had already been
authorized, and another application was then
under consideration.
Davis attended church at Montgomery on
Sunday. Our informant heard Gov. Moore,
of Alabama, remark that an attack would not
be made upon Washington for from thirty to
sixty days. The general impression was that
Davis would vacate the Presidential Chair,
devolving its duties upon Mr.. Stephens, and
take command of the army.
The reign of despotism had commenced,
and every pains was taken TO prevent people
from leaving the State. The Confederate
Government had issued a conscription for
soldiers, and our informant left TO avoid i'm
pIessment into the army. He could find no
way of egress from the dominions of the
modern DR.. Francia except by way of Nash
vile, Tenn.
Montgomery was well supplied with pro-
visions, but the rebels were short of arms
and other munitions of war, despite the rob.
DCilOs vi buO alEOnhioy WIN SuO anu VI
Mr.. Bucbanan's Cabinet Ministers.
Only $4,000, 600 of the Confederate loan
has as yet been taken. The expenses of the
Montgomery Administration have been
heavy, and must exhaust the exchequer be
fore great while. The soldiers OF the Con-
fedeTacy have not been paid; only the ex-
peDses of transporting them being met. The
rest bss been deferred till the conquest of
Washington and the proposed reconstruc nc.
| ton of the Union.
The general impression of the rebel Gov
eminent, ana o. the people of Montgomery,
was that the Northern states were divided
in sentiment, and that large portion of the
most substantial citizens would CO. operate
with the Secessionists. The Federal Gov
| erpment, they were confident, could only
assemble an army of Irish and negro mer-
cenaries, whom General Davis would easily
| disperse. No information respecting the
Union sentiment so generally prevalent al
| the North had reached them. The leaders
were busily arranging their plans, sanguine
| of success.
Money was considerably plentiful, and the
principal houses in Mobile and New 0rlean:
were paying their debts.

Providence VindIcnted.

1t would seem, from reports which bear the
appearance of credibility, that from eight
hundred to one thousand of the assailants of
Fort Sumter lost their lives during the can
nonade. This puts very different aspect
upon the Providentialities of that affair; and
relieves Providence of the charge of incou-
sistency that was made against it under the
impression that it was giving aid and COM
fort to both parties during the fight. Provi-
dence-one of whose primary duties, accord
ing to the common idea, is to preserve the
lives of its bsnefcidrieS-was on the right
side after all. The thanks rendered by the
Secessiouists for its interposition to prevent
the shedding of fraternal blood, was but a
piece of hypocrisy, not intended to hatter
Providence, but to hide the fact that it had,
after the old Roman manner, turned down
its thumb against them.
Cincinnati daily press. [volume] (Cincinnati [Ohio]) 1860-1862, 1861-05-01

ACCORDING to last accounts, it is not the
intention of the Confederate leaders to make
a sudden attack upon Fort Pickens. If the
stories are true about the losses at Sumter,
there are, perhaps, prudential reasons for
this new determination. The one man
struck with a spent ball during that affair
was probably hurt more than was at first
supposed-and several more with him. It
would not, with such examples, be advisable
to open another ball until the troops gone
North have returned, lest more get hurt with
these spent missiles than can be well az
forded, and the seat of the Confederate Gov
ernment be opened to the advance Of those
Northern towards who are holden by the
palmetto and cotton chiyalry in such thor
ough. bred contempt.
By the way, there is a suggestion in re-
spect to a new mode by which these Govern
ment fortresses may be captured, If with less
glory, with less risk, also, than by bonn
bardment. Constructed, doubtless, upon
contracts, they are made Of highly combusti-
BILE materials. Sumter was to have been
built of Northern granite, but the facts show
that yellow pine, which abounds in that
region, must have been the article used by
the contractor as a substitute. Nothing is
wanting but to set them on fire in order to
smoke out their garrisons and bring them TO
surrender; and for this purpose a bundle OF
straw and box of lucifer matches at mid
night would be much safer and more effective
than whole batteries OF Oolumbiads.
